It is not something that ordinary people can do for a Jindan cultivator to kill a Lianxu cultivator above their level. Yue Tianyi suspected that Chen Lin also got some treasure in that cave.
When Chen Lin heard what the other party said, he didn't say anything.
The feat the other party was talking about was nothing more than the fact that he killed ancestor Ling Tian. He didn't want to admit it, but he didn't refute it either. Ambiguity was best.
"How long has Fellow Daoist Yue been back? How are Fellow Daoist Zhang and the others?"
Chen Lin changed the subject and asked directly what he wanted to know.
Yue Tianyi did not hide anything and said directly: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Xin, and Fellow Daoist Lu all left the cave with me. Fellow Daoist Xin went back to his family, and Fellow Daoist Zhang claimed that he was going to travel to find an opportunity to advance to the Refining Void Realm. As for Fellow Daoist Lu, I don't know."
Having said this, he looked at Chen Lin and said with a smile: "But Fellow Daoist Lu seems to be very interested in Fellow Daoist Chen, so he might come to see you."
"hehe."
Chen Lin smiled calmly, and the little girl-like figure of Lu Xiaoyin appeared in his mind.
Then he ignored it and asked in surprise: "Did Daoist Yue and the others reunite in there? Did they get any treasures? Did they encounter any danger?"
Yue Tianyi's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled bitterly: "I only got some spiritual herbs, but encountered danger several times and almost lost my life. This treasure hunt was a big loss."
When the four of them left the cave, they had already agreed not to reveal the fact that they had obtained the treasure. Even if there was no agreement, he would not have told it.
If he didn't understand the principle of not showing off one's wealth, he wouldn't have survived until now.
"So, did you encounter any strange things?"
Chen Lin pondered for a moment and asked tentatively.
Yue Tianyi showed a puzzled look, looked at Chen Lin and asked: "What is the strange thing that Fellow Daoist Chen was talking about?"
"Oh, nothing, just asking."
Chen Lin laughed and didn't continue the topic.
Judging from the other party's behavior, he probably didn't encounter the child or the old Taoist, so it's useless to ask.
Then, the two chatted for a while, and Yue Tianyi stood up and said goodbye.
Chen Lin sent the other person outside and looked at his receding figure with a frown on his face.
He always felt that there was a strange aura about this person, but it was so obscure that he couldn't pinpoint it.
And it didn't seem normal for the other party to visit suddenly.
After thinking for a while, Chen Lin couldn't help but smile.
He really had the mindset that there were no good people in the world. Everyone he saw wanted to harm him, and he was a little too nervous.
Now he is a cultivator of the Void Refining Stage, and he has already formed the rudiments of Taoist magic before, so he is considered a half-Taoist strongman. Although he cannot be said to be completely without rivals in this world, he is also at the top.
There are people who can pose a threat to him, but Yue Tianyi is definitely not one of them.
The most urgent task is to develop the innate magical powers, continue to improve the Blade of Destiny, form a complete Taoist technique as soon as possible, and enter the Taoist Rhythm Period.
Weird or not, there was no time to dwell on it.
The Dao Yun period is not an independent realm, but rather the Lianxu period. The level is reflected in the Lianxu cultivator’s mastery of the Dao arts.
Theoretically speaking, one can become a Dao Yun strongman in the early stage of Lianxu, and the two are not in conflict.
However, for a normal cultivator, only when he reaches the late stage of refining emptiness can he sense the way of heaven and comprehend the Tao. People like him are an outlier among the outliers.
In addition to Taoist magic, one also needs to practice some high-level spells of the Lianxu level. The previous spell level is not enough.
Transfiguration also needs to be practiced, this spell is still quite useful.
Practicing spells is the most time-consuming. It is not easy to successfully practice high-level spells. It can take several years. For slightly more complicated and mysterious spells, it may take ten or even a hundred years. It is estimated that another long-term retreat is required.
"How are you two doing?"
After seeing Yue Tianyi off, Chen Lin came to the residence of the Cheng sisters, checked it out first, and then asked.
Both women are now in the middle stage of the Golden Core cultivation, and their cultivation progress is rapid.
In addition to their good qualifications, it is also because the resources he provides to the two of them are top-notch.
"Reporting to the senior, my sister and I are both fine."
Cheng Lingdie bowed and answered respectfully.
As the two men grew older, their experience was no longer the same as when they were in the cave. Their temperament and appearance had changed greatly.
After her elder sister finished speaking, her younger sister Cheng Lingchan immediately followed up and said, "Senior, the matter about the Lingtian Patriarch..."
Chen Lin waved his hand and interrupted the other party.
"It's okay, it's over, and you can't be blamed. You just need to practice with peace of mind and break through the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible."
"yes!"
The two women breathed a sigh of relief and responded in unison.
Chen Lin stayed and chatted with the two girls for a while, even personally prepared a table of delicious spiritual food, and had lunch with them before leaving.
In the following time, he spent some time with the two ladies, explained some doubts about cultivation to some close people, and then began to retreat.
There is no time limit for cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, fifty years have passed.
During this period, the entire Jinling Mountains were peaceful and nothing major happened.
Everyone in Tianbao Peak also concentrated on their cultivation, and their skills improved.
In the secret room, Chen Lin, who looked like a sculpture, slowly opened his eyes, and then his whole body began to shrink. In the blink of an eye, he became a dwarf only three feet tall, and his body became thinner as well.
Immediately afterwards, the shrunken body began to expand again, and did not stop until it grew to about ten feet in size.
The robe on his body had been shattered, revealing the thousands of layers of armor underneath.
With bulging strong muscles and a powerful aura, he stood there like a furious King Kong.
Chen Lin clenched his fists, feeling his own surge of strength, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Not bad, all my hard work paid off!"
He muttered something, and then his body shrank rapidly and returned to its original shape.
Although I don't know if there is any secret to this transformation, the fact that strength increases as the body becomes larger makes it a pretty good spell.
This increase is not just ordinary strength, but it contains the meaning of the rules of power and greatly improves combat effectiveness.
Unfortunately, my current understanding is not deep enough, and I can only enlarge it to ten feet at most, and if I want to shrink it, I can only reach three feet.
If you can train to the point where your body is as strong as a mountain, that would be amazing.
However, there is another mysterious aspect to this method. In addition to the changes in body shape, other energies will also change accordingly. The Nascent Soul and the soul will become larger or smaller accordingly.
The Nascent Soul was nothing, as it could change its size by itself, but he had never heard of a spell that could change the size of the soul.
Even though the soul is an energy body, everyone's soul is the same size as the body. No matter how the body changes, the soul will not change. At least he doesn't know who can change the size of the soul now.
The size mentioned here is not an illusory size, but a real state. However, the strength of the soul has nothing to do with the size. There is no point in becoming bigger or smaller. The strength of the origin is the key point.
Chen Lin concluded that this method must have its special uses.
But he had no intention of researching it, and had no idea how to do it. For now, he could just use it as an advanced spell, especially for changing his appearance and concealing his identity. It was simply perfect.
He took out a robe and put it on, and stopped thinking about it.
Then, as his mind moved, a gray-white light flashed by, like a blade, very dim, and could not be seen at all if one did not pay attention.
Seeing this light, Chen Lin's eyes showed a captivating light.
After fifty years of continuous research and understanding, he finally researched and developed a change in his innate magical power, which is this gray-white light blade.
It’s not a new magical power, but a new way of using the Blade of Destiny.
The power of destiny is not so easy to comprehend. The last time I was able to comprehend the Blade of Destiny, it was with the help of the Dao Stone. Moreover, a cultivator can only comprehend one Taoist art. If he comprehends more, not only will he not have enough energy. Each Taoist art is his own comprehension of the great Dao. It is impossible for a person to comprehend two Daos. It would be strange if he did not go crazy.
Chen Lin focused his mind on the gray-white light blade.
This magical power is still called the Blade of Destiny, but it does not require the target's "little fish" to be manifested in one's mind as before, and one also needs to distinguish the lines of the opponent's long river of destiny. That is too time-consuming and cannot be used in battle at all.
After this set of operations, the enemy is able to kill him several times back and forth, and it can only be used to ambush others.
The newly realized method of use avoids this drawback. It directly uses the Blade of Destiny to cut the enemy's body. Although it cannot change the opponent's fate at present, it can instantly weaken the enemy's luck, making it difficult for the opponent to even drink cold water. Attacks that can be avoided cannot be avoided, and attacks that are intended to hit people cannot be hit.
In a battle between monks, a small mistake could mean the difference between life and death, not to mention that the luck weakened by this magical power would take a long time to recover.
Chen Lin was filled with joy.
Taoist magic is Taoist magic. It has such power even before it is fully completed. Compared with other magic spells, the difference between Taoist magic and other magic is like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.
After feeling the true power of Taoism, Chen Lin even lost interest in practicing other spells.
No wonder the Dao Yun strongmen are able to overwhelm ordinary Lianxu masters. At this moment, he finally had a direct feeling of it.
I stretched my body to get the blood flowing.
He hadn't left the training room for several years, so he planned to go out for a walk.
I haven't seen the sun for many years and I almost forgot what the scenery outside looks like. Cultivation requires relaxation and tension. It is not wise to work in isolation.
Also, make a high-level robe that can shrink, otherwise it will be too inconvenient to use the transformation spell.
After a simple tidying up, Chen Lin left the training room and went outside.
After reuniting with my family, I went to the market town for a stroll.
Then he got some information that shocked him.
In recent years, cultivators have broken through to the Void Refining Realm one after another!
In the Tiancang Realm, Lianxu is the pinnacle. Due to the lack of rules of heaven and earth, it is very difficult to be promoted to Lianxu. Under normal circumstances, a strong Lianxu master will appear only after two to three hundred years.
But in the last five years, four have appeared.
None of this is important. It is not impossible that a large number of cultivators who have reached the perfect state of spiritual transformation will be promoted during this period of time. Even if the probability is very small, there is always a possibility of success.
However, these four people who were promoted to the realm of refining emptiness made Chen Lin difficult to remain calm.
