The old man handed a black animal skin scroll to Chen Lin and said, "This is a recipe for an elixir that I accidentally found in an ancient cave. It records an elixir that can prolong life. Please accept it."
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows and took the paper roll in his hands.
The recipe for elixir that can prolong one's life is very rare. Although he is not worried about his life span now, its value is self-evident.
He first took a look at the material of the animal skin, then unfolded the animal skin roll, and then he was stunned.
I don’t know whether the recipe is real or not, because it is actually written in Taixu script!
"Are you sure this is the recipe for the longevity pill? Do you recognize the immortal words on it?"
Compared to the recipe for the longevity elixir, he cared more about Taixuwen.
The old man had been paying attention to Chen Lin's expression. Seeing this, he immediately replied, "Your Excellency, when I have nothing to do, I am willing to study some ancient books. I have some understanding of Taixuwen, but in terms of proficiency, my eldest granddaughter is much better than me."
Chen Lin glanced at the old man and thought that the other party was very experienced.
However, he was indeed very interested in Taixuwen, and the elixir recipe recorded in this immortal text must not be an ordinary thing that could only extend one's lifespan by a few decades.
"May I have your name?"
Chen Lin looked at the older sister.
"Your Excellency, I am Cheng Lingdie."
My sister knew that the life and death of her three generations of grandparents and grandchildren depended on the thought of the man in front of her, so she was very respectful.
Chen Lin ignored the other party's attitude and asked directly: "How much do you know about Taixuwen?"
"Your Excellency, I know a lot, about three hundred words, and the entire Taixu text only has three hundred and sixty words."
Chen Lin was secretly amazed.
Although the other party is so young, he actually knows 300 characters of Taixu script. It shows that one cannot judge a person by his appearance, and he must have a talent for writing.
However, he had no doubt that the first generation of ancient cultivators here were all powerful, and coming from an era when cultivation civilization was flourishing, it was normal for them to leave behind some Taixu classics.
After thinking for a while, Chen Lin asked, "Where are you planning to go?"
The old man's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "My Lord, now that the Tianluo people are wreaking havoc, it is no longer safe here in the snowy land, so we plan to go to the east to look for the legendary fairyland."
"Fairyland?" Chen Lin looked at the other party and said, "Do you have any definite information? Does that fairyland definitely exist?"
The so-called fairyland must be the utopia that Du Dahai mentioned. It seems that this legend is quite popular.
To his surprise, the old man actually nodded.
"Reporting to the Lord, that fairyland definitely exists, and it is definitely in the east. I have seen relevant information in a note left by a powerful person in the Void Refining Realm. He has been there before."
"oh?"
Chen Lin was shocked.
There is actually accurate and verifiable information, so we really have to keep going. Even if it is not a paradise, as long as there are mountains, water and spiritual energy, that is enough.
"Then let's go. I'll take you for a ride, but remember, you must follow my instructions the entire time and not use any force, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
After giving a warning, Chen Lin adjusted the flying balloon and the four of them squeezed into a net bag.
This flying balloon was not the largest one and seemed a bit crowded. However, the old man deliberately moved away, letting Cheng Lingdie sit next to Chen Lin, which made Cheng Lingdie's face slightly red.
Chen Lin found it funny but didn't care. He controlled the balloon to fly eastward.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.
Such a long flight, even though one is sitting on a balloon, is very tiring.
The main problem is that one cannot use extraordinary powers, which makes people have abilities but nowhere to use them, and can only watch their physical energy being consumed, which is very depressing.
Moreover, the journey was not smooth sailing. Not only did he encounter several snowstorms, but he was also targeted by a Tianluo man when passing through a Tianluo village. As a last resort, Chen Lin had to kill him.
The result was that the feeling of being watched in the dark intensified, making him feel that he was in danger of being attacked at any time.
"Sir, do you understand this character thoroughly?"
Several people landed on the ground to rest, while Cheng Lingdie explained Taixuwen to Chen Lin.
"Yes, I have figured it out. Thank you Miss Psylocke for your advice."
Chen Lin smiled and nodded in reply.
Cheng Lingdie waved her hands hastily and said, "How can a junior be qualified to teach you, sir? You are so powerful and majestic, but I just don't know much about the formation of ancient characters. As long as I understand the key points, I can learn it quickly by myself."
"Okay, stop flattering me. I know my own comprehension level very well. I have only learned a hundred characters in the past six months. I will have to trouble Miss Psylocke again in the future."
"It is my honor to explain to you. I will definitely teach you all the characters."
Chen Lin shook his head, stood up and looked into the distance.
The immortal characters of Taixuwen are extremely mysterious. One character is all-encompassing and can extend to many meanings that cannot be expressed by ordinary words. The combination of different characters extends even wider. Otherwise, the characters on nine bone fragments would not be able to record a magic spell, and the entire Taixuwen would not have only 360 characters.
If he could learn all of the Taixu texts, it would be of great benefit to his future development.
As your cultivation level improves, the inherited knowledge you come into contact with will become more and more advanced. It is inevitable to encounter the inheritance recorded in Taixuwen. If you don’t recognize it, you will miss many opportunities.
This is also the reason why he wanted to bring the three of them with him even though he knew it would be more dangerous with more people.
"Let's go, the wind is blowing in the right direction, let's keep going!"
After resting for a while, Chen Lin felt that the wind direction had changed and immediately summoned.
The grandfather and his two grandchildren dragged their exhausted bodies onto the flying balloon, especially the younger sister Cheng Lingchan, who looked like a walking corpse and was numb.
Chen Lin ignored it and tried hard to control the balloon to make it go faster.
"Huh?"
After flying for less than half a day, Chen Lin let out a cry of surprise.
Then he pointed to the distance and said, "We should have reached the edge of the snow!"
"What!"
This sentence made the three drowsy grandparents and grandchildren wake up, and they looked in the direction of Chen Lin's finger.
I saw mountains appearing faintly in the distance, and there was no white at all.
As you get closer, you can already see a broken line in the white snow, one side is white and the other side is lush and green.
"Haha, we're here, we're here, we're in wonderland!"
When Cheng Lingchan saw the scenery she had dreamed of, she couldn't suppress her excitement and shouted happily.
But he immediately remembered that there was a powerful existence beside him who could even kill the Tianluo people. He immediately stuck out his tongue, looked at Chen Lin carefully, and continued to be excited when he saw that Chen Lin was not angry.
Chen Lin's eyes also lit up.
This place is really just as described in the legend, with beautiful mountains and clear waters and picturesque scenery. Compared with the environment of volcanoes, snow and swamps, it can almost be called a fairyland.
But he knew that one should not judge things by appearances. Perhaps this picturesque wonderland hid infinite horrors, so he must not be careless.
Flying with the wind, the flying balloon was moving at an extremely fast speed. The landscape painting in the distance was getting closer and closer. When it was almost at the edge, Chen Lin controlled the flying balloon to land.
"Be careful, don't go over there yet."
Seeing that the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were so excited that they wanted to fly over immediately, Chen Lin immediately reminded them.
I haven't finished learning Taixuwen yet, and I can't give up at this last moment.
"Thank you for your advice, sir. We know the seriousness of the matter."
The old man had regained his composure and immediately thanked him upon hearing this.
But Chen Lin was still worried and said, "You two can move freely. Let Miss Lingdie follow me."
"Okay, thank you for your help, sir."
The old man thought that Chen Lin’s goal was too obvious, but he agreed immediately.
Along the way, Chen Lin was very nice to the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren, and he was very powerful. Even if he had not saved his life, he would have tried his best to have a good relationship with him. If he really fell in love with his granddaughter, it would be a great fortune for his granddaughter. A strong man who could kill the Tianluo people could live well even if he stayed on the snow.
Unfortunately, this gentleman doesn't seem to have this intention.
Chen Lin didn't know what the old man was thinking, and it didn't matter even if he knew. He took Cheng Lingdie to the edge of the snow and took a closer look.
Just across the line, one side is covered with ice and snow, while the other side is full of colorful flowers.
Looking around, you can see exotic flowers and plants everywhere in the mountains, competing for beauty. When the wind direction changes, waves of floral fragrance fill your nose, refreshing your heart.
There are also butterflies dancing, dragonflies standing among the flowers and plants, birds singing and insects chirping, just like a landscape painting unfolding in front of you.
"My Lord, is that a butterfly?"
A beautiful butterfly flew over, and Cheng Lingdie spoke softly with deep excitement in her tone.
Chen Lin's expression changed.
Apart from the cultivators, there are no other living creatures in the cave, and the same is true even in the small spiritual realm. The other party is called a spirit butterfly. He must have seen this kind of creature in ancient books, so he was yearning for it.
"Yes, this is a butterfly. There are many kinds of butterflies. You will see more in the future."
Chen Lin felt pity and explained.
"Thank you, senior. You know a lot."
Cheng Lingdie smiled, walked to the edge of the snow, looked at the colorful butterfly landed on a snow-white flower, and wanted to reach out to touch it, but when she thought of Chen Lin's instructions, she retracted her hand.
Chen Lin slapped his storage bag, took out a crow puppet, and controlled it to fly over the snow.
Now that he's here, he doesn't have to worry too much about using the storage bag. Perhaps there is some limitation. The closer to the edge of the snow, the less likely the Tianluo people appear. The last time he explored the swamp for so long, he failed to lure the Tianluo people over.
When Cheng Lingdie saw Chen Lin's actions, she immediately stepped back and stood behind Chen Lin.
The old man and Chen Lingchan in the distance also came over and looked at the crow puppet.
Just like the swamp, there is no invisible barrier between the borders, and there is not even any abnormal energy. Apart from the two extreme environments, it is just like one area.
Chen Lin can normally feel the spiritual connection with the crow puppet and can share vision.
The crow puppet flew farther and farther, all the way to the distant mountains, but found nothing unusual.
After taking a look around, Chen Lin called back the puppet and started thinking.
"Sir, how about I go over and take a look? I don't think there should be any danger."
Seeing this, the old man took the initiative to make a request.
Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and was about to speak when he felt a sense of crisis suddenly descend, and then a black light descended from the sky!
