"What's going on?"
Seeing the condition of Cheng Jianshan and the other two, Chen Lin started to ask.
He actually already had the answer in his mind, but he still wanted to confirm it.
Cheng Jianshan slowly turned his head towards Chen Lin and opened his mouth several times before making a mechanical sound.
"Sir, please, please, save Psylocke. They may be useful to you."
The other party spoke this short sentence with great effort.
Even though he already knew the reason, Chen Lin was still horrified.
No wonder both the Tianluo people and the ancient cultivators are unwilling to leave the snow. The power of the rules here is too terrifying. It has only been a few days and they have been assimilated into this state.
If he had waited two days to come back, he would have turned into a tree!
Chen Lin did not say anything, but looked around, found a small hill with a good environment, released the spirit boat and flew over with the three of them.
After choosing a location, insert the branches given by the wood fairy into the ground.
The branches began to grow full of life at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant they grew into a tree about three meters tall.
The surrounding air changed significantly. Not only was the strange energy dispelled, but the meaning of the wood element's rules also disappeared.
The bodies of the three generations of the Cheng family began to recover slowly, but the speed was a bit slow and it would probably take a long time to recover.
Taking advantage of this time, Chen Lin took out the materials and directed the puppets to build a house.
After a small courtyard was built on the top of the mountain, the three generations of the Cheng family returned to normal, and the injuries of the two sisters were basically improved.
"Thank you for saving my life, my lord. My granddaughter and I swear to be loyal to you till death and to obey your orders!"
Cheng Jianshan burst into tears of gratitude and swore to the sky.
Chen Lin waved his hand and said, "You don't have to pledge allegiance. Miss Lingdie taught me the Taixu text and took your longevity pill recipe. This is a normal transaction for us."
He knew exactly what the other party was thinking, but he didn't want to get too deeply involved. It was difficult for him to protect himself, so he couldn't control others.
Then he added: "Remember not to leave this tree more than a hundred feet away, otherwise if you can't come back outside, I may not necessarily come to find you. If you want to go back to the snowy land, you can do whatever you want after I learn the Taixu text."
After giving some instructions, Chen Lin returned to the courtyard without paying attention to the other party's expression.
There are two houses in the courtyard, one is his and the other is for the other three people. Cheng Lingdie's injuries have not yet healed, so there is no rush to explain the Taixu text. His current main focus is to comprehend the mysterious spell given to him by Fairy Mu.
This spell had no name, so he gave it a name called Xiantian Jue.
The function of the secret technique is to deeply refine the innate things and strengthen the control of the innate power. For him, it is naturally extremely important.
The Thundergod's Sword is more useful than the Soul-Destroying Finger. The Soul-Destroying Finger has its limitations, but the innate power has comprehensive coverage. Even when facing the colorful light of the Wood Fairy, it was unable to work only because of its lack of strength, not that it is ineffective.
Such a spell is of inestimable value and it is impossible to obtain it except here, but Chen Lin is a little nervous.
The greater the benefit, the more you have to pay. I don’t know what the Wood Fairy wants him to do.
But now that things have come to this, there is no turning back. He can only learn the magic formula first and then wait for the next step.
Chen Lin focused his mind on his sea of consciousness and read the contents of the spell.
The spell does not contain much content, but it is recorded in Taixu script, which is extremely obscure and difficult to understand. Fortunately, Fairy Mu directly infused it into my sea of consciousness, so I have understood the basic meaning of the characters. Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to comprehend it.
Moreover, this allowed him to master a few more Taixu characters, which was an unexpected surprise.
Next, Chen Lin concentrated on his meditation without distraction. Except for occasionally going out to check on the situation, he basically stayed in the training room.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Chen Lin studied day and night and finally mastered this innate secret. He was even more surprised after testing it.
After re-refining the Thundergod Sword through this secret method, its power has increased a lot, and as the refining time increases, the power will be further improved.
According to rough estimates, its power will eventually be nearly doubled compared to before!
After the ritual, the Thunder God's Sword has undergone qualitative changes in power, speed, and energy recovery time.
Affected by this change, his overall strength has been greatly improved.
Chen Lin spent another month refining the Thunder God Sword using the Xiantian Jue, and the results made him more and more satisfied.
But he did not continue. Instead, he waited for the Wood Fairy to appear while thinking about his current situation.
The past six months have been very peaceful and nothing dangerous has occurred.
The Tianluo people did not show up, and there were no other cultivators to disturb them. Fairy Mu and that little man did not show up either, allowing them to spend some comfortable and leisurely days.
Of course, this kind of life could not last long. Fairy Mu spared his life and gave him the innate secret not because of his good looks, but because she had some ulterior motive. As for what the ulterior motive was, he could only make a rough guess and could not predict the details.
But he has to use his innate power, otherwise he would not have been given this magic formula.
In the yard, Chen Lin tested the Thunder God Sword again, and then stared at the big tree in the yard in a daze.
According to his analysis, since there is the Wood Fairy, a powerful being who controls the rules of the wood element, in this area, there must be such people in other areas as well.
Judging from the environment, the five extreme areas around the snow belong to the five elements.
This place belongs to wood, the swamp belongs to water, the Flaming Mountain belongs to fire, and the desert naturally belongs to earth.
There is another metal element whose location is unknown. The snow has nothing to do with metal no matter how you look at it. Maybe there are other places around that he doesn't know about, but his guess about the five elements division should not be wrong.
If all five elements are really present, and there is an innate being in charge of each area, then it goes without saying that it must be some kind of formation.
And it's very powerful.
As for the purpose, it is either to seal the god worshipped by the Tianluo people, that is, the giant golden eye, or to suppress some other terrifying thing.
It is most likely related to the Tianluo people.
Because Fairy Mu also mentioned the word "Luo".
The other party didn't say who this Luo was, and he didn't find a chance to ask. Facing such a strong man, he had no right to communicate on an equal footing.
But Chen Lin inferred that it should be the name of the giant golden eye.
However, whether in the Tianxuan Realm or in the classics of the gathering place here, he had never seen any record of a creature like "Luo". Instead, the cultivators of the Tianxuan Realm called the giant red eye the ancestor of evil demons.
If the scarlet giant eye and the golden giant eye worshipped by the Tianluo people are of the same kind, then the Luo creature does not exist alone, but is a group.
The danger is even higher!
After looking for a while, Chen Lin withdrew his gaze from the big tree.
That kind of existence is still very far away from him, and his current main task is to find a way to leave here.
His cultivation has now reached a bottleneck. As long as he finds an opportunity to advance, he can try to advance to the realm of refining emptiness.
However, he discovered that the rules of this world were not complete, especially in the current area, which only had the rules of the wood element. It was impossible to advance here, and he could not even attract a heavenly calamity. It was not even certain whether a heavenly calamity could form here.
This is also the reason why he suspected that this world was a formation space.
Monks practice every minute of their lives, step by step. If they are trapped here for one more day, their chance of achieving enlightenment will be one less. They cannot continue to waste time here.
After thinking for a while, Chen Lin turned around and went back to the room.
Since your cultivation cannot be improved and you want to increase your strength, you can only delve into magic and supernatural powers.
What he wanted to study most at the moment was the magic techniques recorded in Taixu script on the nine bone fragments, but he was still short of mastering one character and was unable to connect all the contents together.
The missing character was the general outline at the beginning, and it happened to be one of the sixty characters that Cheng Lingdie didn't know, which made him very depressed.
However, Cheng Jianshan has already mastered the recipe for the longevity elixir, which is called the Thousand-Year-Longevity Pill. As the name suggests, it is a pill that can increase one’s lifespan by a thousand years!
This degree of increase even made Chen Lin stunned.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as terrifying. If such a pill appeared in the outside world, it would be snatched up by all cultivators.
An extra thousand years of lifespan is enough for many cultivators to make further progress, even several steps, on their path.
However, this pill has little effect on high-level cultivators. Theoretically, cultivators above the Refinement Void stage can live forever. What they worry about are the inner demons and heavenly tribulations. An extra thousand years of lifespan is just icing on the cake.
Even he doesn't really need it.
Of course, if there is a chance, Chen Lin will try his best to refine it.
He can't use it himself, but he still has a wife and daughter. If he can find Sun Caiyi, Qin Lingyu and others before their lifespans run out, this pill will come in handy.
Thinking of his wife and daughter, Chen Lin felt sad again.
Unfortunately, Baiyun Ranch is a silver scene, the cat-headed monster cannot be summoned, and the projection scene is useless, so I can only worry.
Luo Qinglan, Princess Qinghua, and many other old acquaintances appeared one by one, even Zhao Mengru, who liked to pretend to be a powerful man's descendant and wanted to be his concubine, was recalled.
"well!"
All the thoughts finally turned into a sigh.
Chen Lin suppressed his emotions and his state of mind suddenly became as solid as a rock.
Right now is the perfect time for the inner demon to invade, and we must not let it take advantage of the opportunity.
"Senior, there is new progress on this character. I have almost understood it."
As soon as Chen Lin returned to his room, Cheng Lingdie came to him with a happy look on her face.
His eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Sit down and tell me in detail."
The character the other party was talking about was the last one of the nine bone fragments. Although there was no information recorded in ancient books, the other party directly deduced the meaning based on his understanding of Taixu text and the commonality between the characters.
I didn't have much hope at first, but I didn't expect that it would actually be researched out.
With anticipation, Chen Lin sat in a chair and listened quietly to Cheng Lingdie's explanation.
The light shone through the window onto the other person's face, and he actually felt like he was facing a teacher in his previous life, except that this teacher was a little young.
It took a whole night of talking for Chen Lin to fully understand this character. After Cheng Lingdie left, he took out all the bone fragments and began to comprehend this spell.
"I see!"
After getting the general outline, the content of the spell was completely cracked, and Chen Lin finally understood the effect of this spell.
