Hearing Chen Lin's question, Yunhai Shangren couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He shook his head and said, "Brother Chen, you don't know that my secret technique cannot be used lightly. Not only does it consume a lot of energy, it takes a long time to recover after use. Moreover, you cannot choose the interface, and it is very likely that you will fall directly into a place where you will die. I am always nervous every time I use it."
Chen Lin suddenly realized.
He said that there couldn't be such a heaven-defying secret technique. It turned out that there were these limitations. It was similar to the broken boundary-breaking disk he had at the beginning.
Even so, this secret technique was quite powerful. Unfortunately, he couldn't trust the other party and could only sigh in despair.
The two had a long talk, both of them sighed and felt deeply the difficulty of cultivation.
"Brother Yan, have you been exploring the demon world these years?"
After talking about his experience, Chen Lin began to ask other questions.
The other party was also a person who was keen on exploring the demon world. His first pass was given by the other party. Until now, he still couldn't figure out why the other party was so generous.
"Haha, of course I am still going. If it weren't for the treasure of the Demon Realm, how could I, a mere casual cultivator, have achieved my current level of cultivation?"
Yunhaishang laughed at himself, which made Chen Lin agree with him deeply.
Although he had natural abilities and was not short of resources, he also relied a lot on the Demon Realm. He escaped death several times by relying on the Demon Realm as a refuge.
"Brother Yan, have you discovered any valuable scenes?"
He now wants to focus on the demon world, so naturally he doesn't want to let go of this person who has extensive research on the demon world.
Yunhaishang's eyes flashed and he nodded.
"To be honest with you, Brother Chen, I have indeed encountered a few good scenes over the years, especially one of them, which has many treasures. Although it is a bit dangerous, if you master the rules inside, you can leave safely."
Having said that, he took out a glass cup.
He put the cup on the table, pushed it towards Chen Lin, and said, "This is the medium to enter that scene. It is an extra one of mine, so I'll give it to Brother Chen. Consider it a gift to congratulate you on your promotion to the Void Refining Realm."
This time Chen Lin did not refuse. Sensing the strong aura of the demonic world on the glass cup, he nodded and put it away.
"Thank you very much, Brother Yan. I have nothing to give you in return. If Brother Yan wants to refine some elixir after obtaining the Thousand-Year-Old Spiritual Herb, you can come to me. My alchemy skills are barely good enough."
Chen Lin wrote a blank check.
In fact, there is really nothing good to give.
With the other party's current level of cultivation, what he needs most is naturally a treasure that can assist him in his advancement to the realm of refining emptiness. However, this kind of thing is extremely valuable and cannot be compared to a mere item from the Demonic Realm, so he naturally would not take it out.
As for Lingbao.
The other party would not be interested in ordinary spiritual treasures, and he was reluctant to give up the spiritual treasures of the spiritual transformation level, so he simply gave nothing.
Mr. Yunhai was not unhappy. Instead, he patiently explained the rules of this demonic scene to Chen Lin, appearing very generous.
After another round of communication, the two finally stood up, left communication talismans with each other, agreed to meet again, and then left.
Chen Lin met up with Hua Ruyu, briefly described his relationship with Master Yunhai, and then began to stroll around the market town, browsing the various shops to collect resources.
As for the glass cup scene given to him by Master Yunhai, he has no plans to explore it for the time being. Even if he wants to explore it, he cannot just believe the other party's words. He has to find someone to test it out himself before deciding whether to go or not.
He now has quite a few items from the demonic world in his hands, and there are plenty of places he wants to explore. Not to mention other things, he has not even tried the scene with the rusty knife.
The reason is that these are all projected scenes, which are not of much help to him. What he needs now is a scene that he can enter in person, so all his energy is focused on Li Fuyao's scene and he has no time to care about anything else.
A few days later.
After the auction, the monks who had obtained the opportunity to hunt for treasures gathered on Duobao Island, and Master Yunhai also participated.
Before entering, he glanced in the direction of the city, his lips moved slightly as if he was mumbling something, and then he followed the crowd to the depths of the island.
Chen Lin didn't know the whereabouts of Yun Haishangren. The two had not been in contact since they last parted.
He didn't want to contact the other party again. He always kept his distance from such mysterious people. He took the initiative to find the other party before because he thought that the other party would appear here and must have the key to leave this world. He didn't expect that he knew the secret technique to break through the world. That was meaningless to him.
In a secret courtyard.
Chen Lin pushed the door open with anticipation and immediately saw Zhang Zhenqian and Yue Tianyi. Both of them looked radiant and seemed to have gained a lot.
"Haha, the two brothers are all smiling, it seems that this trip is going very smoothly!"
He was the first to speak and say hello.
These are all his customers, so he must treat them nicer.
Zhang Zhenqian and the other man did not hide anything. They smiled and nodded, then each took out ten spiritual herbs emitting different medicinal scents and placed them on the table.
"Brother Chen, we have already got the elixir you requested. Shouldn't we fulfill the contract and eliminate the hidden dangers in our bodies?"
Chen Lin's eyes lit up, and he picked up the twenty spiritual herbs and examined them one by one. He found that all of them were more than three thousand years old, and eight of them were already ten thousand years old.
But after reading it, he frowned and said, "Brother Zhang, Brother Yue, the age of your spiritual herbs is sufficient, but only four are what I need. The others are not on the list I made. Did you remember it wrong?"
The value of elixirs varies greatly not only in their age but also in their types.
Moreover, different types of medicines have different effects, and the two men took out common kinds of elixirs, which made him suspect that the two men wanted to get away with it.
Zhang Zhenqian immediately explained after hearing this: "Brother Chen, don't misunderstand. Although the mysterious land is vast and there are indeed many spiritual herbs and medicines, there are very few types. The two of us have explored a wide area and only found these few. We are not trying to pass off inferior ones as good ones."
Yue Tianyi also nodded repeatedly and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, don't worry about this. We are bound by the spiritual contract and we two will not deceive you. The several kinds of spiritual medicines here are all the types we have obtained."
Chen Lin frowned.
He also felt that the two did not seem to be lying.
But in this case, it would be difficult for him to refine the Shengxu Pill. Apart from this newly appeared mysterious place, it would be impossible to get the required elixir anywhere else.
Perhaps seeing Chen Lin's ugly expression, Zhang Zhenqian pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "In addition to the two of us, didn't Brother Chen also find Daoist Xin? The two of us have low status, and although we entered the secret place in advance, we can only explore the periphery. Daoist Xin has entered the core area. If Daoist Xin still lacks any spiritual medicine, you can wait for Daoist Xin to come out and ask her for it."
"oh?"
Chen Lin was stunned. He didn't expect that the cultivators who entered the secret place early would not receive the same treatment.
But now that things have come to this, we can only accept the reality.
However, the two men failed to find the type of spiritual medicine he needed, so they had to make up for it in quantity. After some bargaining, the two men each took out a thousand-year-old spiritual herb.
Chen Lin was secretly excited, but he put on a reluctant look. He packed the elixirs into jade boxes and put them away.
Then he asked, "Do you two brothers want to continue exploring that secret place?"
Since there was no danger in the secret place, he also wanted to go and take a look. After all, his collection was better than that of outsiders.
But the two shook their heads.
Zhang Zhenqian said, "No, we won't go there. The area of that secret place is not that big. There were dozens of people who went in before us, all of them were cultivators at the level of Void Refining and Spiritual Transformation. We have basically found all the places we can find. The remaining things are ordinary things of low age, which are useless to us."
After a pause, he continued, "And it's not completely free of danger there. On the contrary, the danger level is very high. During the time we were exploring, two fellow Taoists have already died there."
Yue Tianyi also agreed, "There must be a lot of rare spiritual medicines in the central area, and there may be other treasures, but it has been blocked by several major forces such as the Xin family and Huanyin Palace. Outsiders are not allowed to enter in the short term. If you go there, you will just be jealous. It is better to turn a blind eye to it."
Hearing the two of them say this, Chen Lin lost the desire to go in.
Because he has always kept a low profile and has not joined the Elders' Council of Wanling Mountains, he does not have a chance to enter. If he wants to get in, he has to find a way. There is no point in just picking up leftovers.
Now that he had the things in hand, it was time for him to fulfill his promise. Chen Lin set up an isolation array, signed a confidentiality agreement, and then cleared the remaining thoughts of Youluo from the two men one by one.
The soul-solidifying secret technique of these two people was not as good as Lu Xiaoyin's. Their origins were seriously damaged and they all became weak.
This situation made Zhang Zhenqian and the other person alert.
Although they had been reminded by Chen Lin before and knew that clearing evil thoughts would damage the essence of the soul, they were all very confident in their own secret techniques.
However, he did not expect the damage to be so serious. He was secretly horrified by the ruthlessness of Chen Lin's methods, and was also worried that he would take this opportunity to kill people and steal the treasure.
After all, both of them had just come out of a secret place and could easily be coveted by others.
Although they believed that Chen Lin was only at the Spirit Transformation Realm and would not attack the two of them, powerful Void Refinement Realm masters, it was possible that he would do something stupid in a fit of anger because of money.
Chen Lin naturally wouldn't do that.
They signed two spiritual contracts. If they breached the contract, the price they would pay would be far more than just some spiritual herbs.
Moreover, he didn't need to do anything that would cross his bottom line, the other party would still have to hand over the spiritual herbs.
Thinking of this, he took out two Luck Edition Soul-Restoring Pills and gave one to each of them.
"Now is a time of trouble as the secret place is open. Your two brothers' souls have been severely damaged and may be in danger. I happen to have a pill that can restore the soul. Do you need it?"
As a result, the two of them also experienced the heartache that Lu Xiaoyin had felt at the time. Nearly half of the elixir they had worked so hard to obtain was taken away by Chen Lin, and they were all in tears.
But this reward cannot be withheld. Damage to the origin of the soul is no small matter. It will take an untold time to recover naturally.
They were both well-informed and knew that something unexpected might happen in this world, so they didn't dare to wait.
I have no choice but to accept being ripped off!
