"Senior Lu, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. Please bear with me!"
Arriving at the reception room, Chen Lin smiled and spoke to Lu Xiaoyin, who was curled up in a big chair like a child.
After so many years, the other party's appearance has not changed much, but the aura on his body is very strong, and he looks elusive, as if he will disappear into the void at any time.
This is the reason why your cultivation has not yet been completely stabilized.
"Hehe, Brother Chen, why should you be so formal? You and I are partners who have been through thick and thin together. How can we become estranged just because of the difference in our cultivation levels?"
Lu Xiaoyin smiled, and it was no different from before.
"Then I'd rather obey than be disrespectful. I wonder how long Brother Daoist Lu has been here, and whether he has seen Brother Daoist Xin and the others?"
Chen Lin clasped his fists, sat on the other side and asked.
Lu Xiaoyin shook his head. "No, I just arrived at the Wanling Mountains and immediately came to visit Fellow Daoist Chen. How is it, is that nice of you?"
As he spoke, he kept blinking his big eyes and staring at Chen Lin's face.
Chen Lin ignored the other party's actions, laughed dryly and said, "That really makes me flattered."
Then change the subject.
He also looked into the other person's eyes and asked inquiringly, "We all went treasure hunting together. Fellow Daoist Lu and several others were promoted to Void Refining Cultivators, but I was left behind. How embarrassed I am. I wonder what kind of heaven-defying opportunities the other Daoists got in there. Can you tell me about it?"
Zhang Zhenqian was unwilling to say it, so he wanted to find out from the other party.
Originally, she didn't have much hope, but Lu Xiaoyin blinked and suddenly said, "I have something to ask of you, Brother Chen, please help me."
There was a flash of suspicion in Chen Lin's eyes.
The other party has already been promoted to the realm of refining emptiness, while he is now only at the realm of transformation of spirit. What could he need help with
"Brother Lu, if you need anything, please feel free to ask. As long as I can do it, I will naturally not refuse."
Chen Lin agreed readily, trying to trick the other party into talking, but as to whether he would help or not, that was another matter.
Lu Xiaoyin's face lit up with joy, and he said in a voice transmission, "Could you teach me the method you used to deal with the wandering silk in the cave?"
Seeing Chen Lin's astonishment, he immediately sent another voice message: "I don't want your things for free. You can pay me and I guarantee you will be satisfied."
Chen Lin was indeed very surprised.
He never expected that the other party would actually want to learn the Soul-Destroying Finger.
However, he himself didn't know how he learned this spell. He had taught it to Chen Ling'er, Qin Lingyu and others, but no one could learn it. That's why he thought the Silver Fairy had some secret.
Moreover, the spell was inherited by the Silver Fairy. No matter how many others could learn it, he would not pass it on to others. There was nothing wrong with passing it on to his wife and daughter, but passing it on to outsiders was fine.
So he simply refused.
"I cannot agree to this. This technique is a secret teaching from my master. I cannot pass it on to others without my master's order. I hope Brother Lu will forgive me."
Then he continued, "What is the purpose of this technique that you want to learn, Fellow Daoist Lu? I also know several other soul secret techniques. If you are interested, I can teach them."
Lu Xiaoyin immediately shook his head.
"No, ordinary ones are useless to me. In fact, I have mastered many kinds of soul secrets, but none of them have any effect. Fellow Daoist Chen's secret can restrain the wandering silk, and perhaps it can solve my crisis."
Chen Lin's expression changed, and he asked in doubt: "Oh? Daoist friend has just broken through the Void Refining Realm, and is in high spirits. What kind of crisis could there be?"
"well!"
Lu Xiaoyin sighed.
Then he took out the crystal used in the cave and activated it directly in front of Chen Lin's surprised gaze.
A blinding light suddenly lit up, filling the entire room.
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, but resisted the urge to do anything.
No matter how arrogant the other party is, he would not take direct action here, and there is no reason for him to do so.
Sure enough, the light released from the crystal was not aggressive at all, but formed a light shield that covered the two of them.
"What's this, Brother Lu?"
Chen Lin was a little confused and didn't know what the other party wanted to do.
With the other party's strength, it is impossible for anyone to eavesdrop when they use the secret art of voice transmission to communicate, so there is no need to set up such a layer of defense.
Lu Xiaoyin did not answer, but turned the crystal in his hand.
In an instant, the light shield began to slowly darken, and finally completely lost its light transmittance, and it was pitch black inside.
The two of them both have night vision, so they can see everything, but they can only see the scene within the light shield and cannot see outside through the light shield.
Chen Lin became more and more suspicious. Although he felt that the other party would not take action here, he still became alert, with lightning flashing in his hand.
"Don't worry, I just want to show you something."
Lu Xiaoyin's voice sounded at the right time.
Then, his face became distorted, as if he was in great pain, and then, in Chen Lin's stunned expression, a faint black eyeball appeared between his eyebrows!
Chen Lin was shocked.
He felt Luo's breath from the eyeball between the other person's eyebrows!
"puff!"
Lu Xiaoyin spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his entire aura instantly weakened.
There was no black eyeball between her brows, and she slumped in the huge chair, barely breathing.
The surrounding black light shield collapsed and everything returned to normal.
"Is Brother Lu okay?"
Chen Lin stood up, with the Thunder God Sword in his hand fully displayed. He was extremely nervous and spoke in a deep voice.
The black eyeballs and Luo's aura were clearly the same as those in the painting of Patriarch Ling Tian.
You Luo!
This is not just a painting, it really exists!
Luo and he can be considered sworn enemies, so how could Chen Lin not be nervous
But the aura of Luo on Lu Xiaoyin was very faint, so the only thing left in his body should be a very weak remnant of You Luo. Otherwise, not to mention that Lianxu couldn't bear it at all, it would be impossible to force its form out.
"It's okay, I'm not going to die yet."
Lu Xiaoyin waved his hands and struggled to sit up straight.
After a pause, he transmitted his voice, "Fellow Daoist Chen only saw the glory of being promoted to the Refining Void Realm, but he didn't know what happened in secret. I have now been possessed by this evil creature, and who knows when it will replace me."
"How was he controlled?"
Chen Lin asked via voice transmission.
In fact, he felt that it was useless to transmit sound or not. With Luo's strangeness, even a faint remnant of his distracted mind could break the sound transmission technique.
“It has not been controlled yet.”
Lu Xiaoyin's tone was gloomy.
Then he said: "This thing has been in my soul and has not moved. If I hadn't studied the soul and spirit and possessed this soul treasure, I would not have been able to detect its existence."
Chen Lin touched his chin and frowned, "Then do you know what this is?"
"have no idea."
Lu Xiaoyin answered immediately.
Then he continued, "But it should be related to the soul treasure we got in the cave. The soul treasure has a mysterious power, which merged into the body during refining, and then the cultivation level advanced by leaps and bounds, and promotion to the Refining Void was also a natural result. I felt something was wrong at the time, but I couldn't resist the temptation to be promoted to the Refining Void, so I still used it."
Chen Lin nodded.
There is no information about Luo in this world, so the remnant of You Luo should only exist in the cave, or in the underworld connected to the cave.
In this case, the black snake used by Patriarch Lingtian should have been obtained from the cave, and it was all caused by the remnant of Youluo.
Thinking of this, Chen Lin was speechless.
These ghosts of Luo are really lingering around. They appear wherever he is. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or if there’s some mysterious force at work.
"Have you told Zhang Zhenqian and others about this? Did they also find anything unusual?"
Chen Lin continued to ask.
At the same time, I was also thinking in my heart whether I should help the other person.
Using the Soul-Destroying Finger to restrain Luo should be enough to destroy the little bit of residual thoughts in the opponent's body, but it is not known whether it will attract You Luo's attention after killing him.
“They probably don’t know yet.”
Lu Xiaoyin spoke.
Then he continued, "This evil thing is hidden very deeply and is difficult to detect. Zhang Zhenqian and Yue Tianyi don't have the ability to detect it, unless Xin Yueling can rely on the power of her bloodline to sense it."
Chen Lin didn't ask any more questions.
After a moment of silence, he said, "You can't learn my secret technique. There are prerequisites for practicing this secret technique. No one can do it without my master. But I can try to help you clear it, but I'm afraid your soul will be injured at the same time."
He still prefers to eliminate the remnant of the other party.
These four people were promoted to the Refining Void stage at the same time, and they all came to the Wanling Mountains. Coupled with the matter of Patriarch Ling Tian, he felt that there was a big hand pushing something in the dark, and it was very likely to be against him!
If it was really as he thought, once these four people were controlled and attacked him together, he really wouldn't be able to cope with it. Killing one would reduce one hidden danger.
As for the possibility of attracting Youluo's attention, there was nothing he could do. He had already killed Tianluo and was being targeted by Shura, so one more Youluo wouldn't make a difference.
What's more, the other party may have noticed him now, and he may not be able to dodge even if he wants to, so it is better to take the initiative to attack.
When Lu Xiaoyin heard Chen Lin's words, his expression changed a little.
After a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "It doesn't matter. I will stick to the origin of my soul. Brother Chen is trying to attack. Let's fight!"
"good."
Chen Lin nodded in agreement.
This was also expected. No one could remain calm after seeing such an evil thing inside their body.
He looked at the other party and said, "It takes a lot of energy for me to use this spell. I can't serve you for nothing. I don't need you to give me any treasures. Just give me a copy of some of the soul secrets you have mastered."
"no problem!"
Just a few copies of secret techniques that could be copied at will were insignificant compared to his own life, so Lu Xiaoyin readily agreed.
Seeing this, Chen Lin didn't say anything more, he stood up and said, "It's not convenient here, Fellow Daoist Lu, please follow me."
The other party was brought to an underground secret room thousands of miles away through a teleportation array, and the other party was asked to activate the crystal light shield again to isolate himself, and then several layers of isolation arrays were set up.
Whether it's useful or not, it can help to relieve your doubts.
"Get ready, I'm about to start!"
After everything was ready, Chen Lin gave a reminder and then used the Soul-Destroying Finger on Lu Xiaoyin.
