Chen Lin was swept up in the whirlpool and felt dizzy, but it didn't last long. He felt his body lighten and he was thrown out.
His body fell rapidly, and before he could use the wind control technique, he landed on the ground with a thud, causing him to feel severe pain all over.
It took a long time to recover.
His mind was clearer by then, and he quickly got up to check the situation.
But after looking around, he did not find any whirlpool or river. He was in an underground space similar to a cave.
This situation was beyond Chen Lin's understanding. He didn't understand why he came to this place all of a sudden from the water. In the end, he could only infer that the vortex might be the legendary teleportation formation.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he stopped thinking about it, took the night pearl to light up, and began to move forward tentatively.
Soon he discovered that this underground space was made up of a series of passages, some large and some small, intricate and intricate, like a maze.
Chen Lin frowned.
Even if there is no danger here at all, it seems that leaving will be a hassle. There is not much food and water in his storage bag. If he uses it sparingly, it will only last for a dozen days.
Food is secondary. The monks have a strong tolerance for hunger, so water is the main thing.
"If I had known this would happen, I would have stored more water in the river."
Chen Lin muttered helplessly, then randomly chose a passage at the fork in the road and continued exploring.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed and he looked towards the rock wall on the side of the passage.
There was actually a glowing object there, which was red all over, the size of a fist, shaped like a mushroom, and exuding a strange fragrance.
"Mushrooms can actually grow here? It looks like a magical herb!"
Only magical herbs can glow; ordinary mushrooms do not have this strange phenomenon.
Chen Lin couldn't help but marvel at it, and at the same time he became interested.
If there are any magical medicines here, we should search for them carefully.
And since there are elixirs, there may be other treasures as well.
Thinking of this, his interest became even stronger.
After making sure there was no danger around, Chen Lin cast a Vajra Shield on himself and dug up the mushrooms with his flying sword.
After a quick check and confirming that he didn't recognize it, he put it into the storage bag.
Then continue searching.
Soon, a few more of the same mushrooms were found.
This made him very happy, and he began to speed up his exploration.
As he was moving forward, Chen Lin's expression suddenly changed, and he reached out to take out the jade talisman on his chest.
At this moment, the jade talisman emitted a faint fluorescence and showed slight fluctuations.
Is this, is there an evil thing nearby
Chen Lin immediately took out a talisman for killing evil and checked it vigilantly.
Just as he took out the talisman, he saw a red shadow flash by in the passage next to him, and the next moment it was in front of him.
Chen Lin immediately extended the jade talisman forward, and the talisman emitted a white light, covering the red shadow.
The red shadow let out a scream and became extremely weak, but he did not die. Instead, he tried to escape.
Chen Lin was just about to activate the Evil-Slaying Talisman, but after thinking about it, he moved his body and slapped the jade talisman onto the slowing red shadow.
The jade talisman emitted a fluorescent light again, but it was much weaker and not as strong as before.
Even so, the red shadow was completely killed and turned into a wisp of black smoke.
Chen Lin, who was well prepared, immediately stretched out his hand and caught the black particles.
His face lit up with joy, this jade talisman can indeed be used in series, so he won't need the assistance of the Evil-Slaying Talisman anymore!
“Crack!”
At this moment, a slight sound suddenly came from the jade talisman.
Chen Lin was suddenly shocked.
This thing can’t break. If it breaks down and then encounters Hongying, won’t we be doomed
And there is a red shadow in this underground passage!
His face changed drastically and he hurriedly took the jade talisman carefully in front of his eyes, and found that the jade talisman was not completely broken, but there was a crack on it.
This also made him feel distressed, as it seemed that he had consumed too much energy.
Thinking of this, his brows suddenly moved, and he placed the black particles he had just obtained on the jade talisman.
Under Chen Lin's surprised gaze, the black particles turned into black light and were absorbed by the jade talisman as soon as they came into contact with the jade talisman!
He hurriedly checked the jade talisman and found that it had become a little rounder and the tiny cracks on it seemed to be smaller as well.
But overall, it looks like it's about to break, especially the newly formed crack, which is very eye-catching.
Chen Lin thought about it, then took out the granular crystals he had obtained when he saved the handsome young man, and placed them on the jade talisman.
It was still the same scene, the particles were absorbed instantly.
This time the jade talisman has changed a lot. Not only has it become smoother, but the very tiny cracks that existed before are almost invisible.
Chen Lin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Obviously, this jade talisman is not meant to be used permanently. Its specific number of uses depends on the energy contained in it. If the energy is exhausted, the jade talisman will completely shatter.
Fortunately, the granular crystals of the red shadow can replenish energy, otherwise he really doesn’t know what to do.
After the jade talisman was restored, Chen Lin became more courageous and began to move forward, looking for an exit.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and listened attentively.
There seemed to be a sound in front of him, dong dong dong, like footsteps.
Is there anyone else here
Chen Lin was surprised and happy.
If there are people, it proves there is an exit, but there is also danger. In such a dark underground, people's greed and desires will be infinitely magnified, and the bottom line will be lowered. Once encountered, there is a high possibility of murder and robbery.
He did not go to the place where the sound came from, but tiptoed to a fork in the road, put away the night pearl, hid in the darkness and waited quietly.
The sound was getting closer and closer, and I could already tell it was indeed footsteps, and not just one.
Soon, a figure ran out from the passage next to Chen Lin. He looked extremely disheveled, holding a glowing stone in his hand, and ran all the way into another passage.
Then, another figure ran out from behind, chasing wildly while making low growling sounds.
As soon as he heard the voice, Chen Lin knew that this cultivator was possessed by a red shadow. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He had only walked for a while when he encountered two red shadows. It seemed that there were quite a few evil red shadows in this underground passage!
Chen Lin ignored the cultivator who was being chased. His jade talisman also had restrictions on its use and could not be used blindly.
Moreover, he didn't know the cultivation level of the possessed cultivator. If he was in the late stage of Qi training, he might not be able to force the red shadow out of the other person's body.
After waiting for a while and the footsteps disappeared, he came out from his hiding place, chose another passage, and continued exploring forward.
This time he was more careful, and listened attentively as he walked.
After turning two intersections, footsteps suddenly came again, and they were very chaotic.
Chen Lin immediately put away the night pearl and pressed his body into a depression on the rock wall.
"Everyone, be alert. Take out all the evil-repelling talismans and put them out in the open. Don't let yourself be possessed by that red evil creature!"
A deep voice sounded, echoing far away in the passage.
Then there was another sound of footsteps.
Suddenly, Chen Lin frowned. After coming out from the fork, this group of people actually walked into his passage!
