I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 586 Inside Story
"Lin Daoyou is really a hard worker, it's not easy to see you."

Chen Lin walked into the second floor of a shop, and Xu Shanjing greeted him with a smile.

"Meet fellow Daoist Xu."

Chen Lin cupped his fists, and then scanned around.

Then he frowned.

Seeing this, Xu Shanjing also looked at it suspiciously, and said, "Why, did Fellow Daoist Lin meet any acquaintances?"

Chen Lin immediately retracted his gaze, shook his head and said, "No, is everyone here?"

As soon as the words fell, a charming figure walked over.

"Why, is Fellow Daoist Lin trying to separate himself from me? You can't even count him as an acquaintance?"

Chen Lin's face turned dark, and he looked at Qu Sanniang opposite and said coldly: "Fellow Daoist Qu, you should make your words clearer, it seems that we only had a few transactions?"

For some reason, this woman always leaned on him intentionally or unintentionally. This time, she basically didn't contact him for three years, but she still acted like this.

At the beginning, he felt that the other party had taken a fancy to his wealth and wanted to commit himself to him, looking for someone who could provide cultivation resources. After all, the business of the other party's store was not very good.

But now he doesn't think so, the other party may have other purposes.

Hearing Chen Lin's words, Qu Sanniang's face turned cold suddenly, and she said sullenly: "It turns out that Fellow Daoist Lin thinks it's just a deal, but I'm being too sentimental!"

After speaking, he turned and returned to his original position.

Chen Lin noticed that a dozen or so monks in the room were all looking over, with incomprehensible expressions, as if they were trying to figure out what the 'deal' between him and Qu Sanniang was.

Even Xu Shanjing was a little surprised.

The more he explained this kind of thing, the darker it became. He simply ignored it, but said to Xu Shanjing, "Is what fellow Daoist Xu said true? There really was that thing in this party?"

Xu Shanjing smiled, "Don't worry, how could I deceive Fellow Daoists? The Zhang family said it themselves."

Chen Lin nodded.

The Zhang family mentioned by the other party is the family of Zhang Shuogu, one of the two early masters of the Qianyuan Sect.

As the Lianxu family and one of the leaders of the Qianyuan Sect, the status of the Zhang family can be imagined, but this family does not bully the weak, on the contrary, it has a good reputation.

Including another Yang family who was in the early stage of Xuxu refining, the family style is very good, and they are very popular among the monks in the city.

This is also one of the reasons why many monks like to settle in Qianyuan City.

As for the strongest elder, called Duanmuhan, he didn't seem to be a monk who grew up locally. He was very mysterious and had no heirs, and even very few disciples.

Chen Lin found a random place to sit down, and Xu Shanjing sat next to him.

The two started chatting.

"By the way, how is the progress of fellow daoist Xu's exploration of the ancient temple ruins?"

After chatting for a while, Chen Lin pretended to be smooth and asked for the information he wanted to know.

Xu Shanjing didn't care, and said casually: "There is a problem over there, I have already withdrawn from the exploration team, and I will be taken over by the Huashen powerhouse, otherwise I won't have time to attend this party."

"Is it that serious?"

Chen Lin asked again.

Xu Shan nodded, "To tell you the truth, Fellow Daoist Lin, the damage was indeed severe. There is still a remnant soul of the alienated demon monk inside. It is very terrifying. The Nascent Soul cultivator will die if he touches it. Thank you for not accepting the invitation last time."

Chen Lin's heart sank.

There is actually a demon monk's remnant soul in that temple, could it be that the demonized Niankong couldn't do it?

From the perspective of the other party, it is impossible to make a wrong judgment. Since it has been demonized, even if it is really Niankong's avatar, it is meaningless.

This is not good news.

Chen Lin turned around, thinking about going to the ruins to make sure, but immediately gave up the idea.

Qian Yuanzong lost so many multi-infant monks, among them there are many masters in the middle and late stages. He doesn't think he is better than others, and as a pawn of Niankong, he has the same Buddhist power as Niankong. Once he enters the ruins, he will inevitably Received the key care of the demon monk's remnant soul.

Forget it, it's better to wait for the patriarch of the Qinglin clan to come back and continue refining the Jinbo Dan to build a golden body.

After making a decision, Chen Lin began to observe the monks who participated in the party, all of them were in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and most of them were stuck on the bottleneck of the peak in the early stage.

The reason is that the organizer of this party sent out a message that they would come up with something called the Infant Spirit Fruit.

This thing is a special kind of spiritual fruit, which greatly benefits the spiritual growth of the Nascent Soul, and the spiritual growth of the Nascent Soul is the most important link in the early stage of the Nascent Soul to break through the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul, so there are so many The Nascent Soul cultivator who was at the peak in the early stage came over.

And this spiritual fruit has another characteristic, that is, it cannot be preserved.

This fruit ripens once in a thousand years, but the ripening period is very short, once you pick it off, you must use it immediately, otherwise it will melt.

If you want to use this kind of spiritual fruit, you must either have a chance against the sky and meet it when it is ripe, or you must have a certain force to protect the fruit tree in advance.

The Zhang family naturally has the ability to protect the spirit tree, but they don't know how many baby spirit fruits will be sold this time. If there are not many, the competition will be fierce.

"Friend Lin, are you familiar with Naqu Sanniang?"

At this time, Xu Shanjing's voice suddenly sounded in Chen Lin's ears, but the other party's gaze was looking elsewhere, communicating with him through the technique of sound transmission.

Chen Lin's eyes flashed, and he also said via voice transmission: "It's not that I'm very familiar with it, but I've asked the other party to learn about the Qinglin Clan a few times before, and we participated in a Qinglin meeting together."

After a pause, he said again: "Fellow Daoist Xu asks this, could it be that the other party has some problems?"

Xu Shanjing's tone seemed to be a little more relaxed, and he said: "It's fine if you don't have one. This person has a lot to do with the Zhang family. He is the concubine of a cultivator of the Zhang family, and then it seems to be dead. The original partner of the cultivator is the Yang family. The female cultivator, in short, the situation is more complicated, it is better not to get involved if it is not necessary."

Chen Lin froze for a moment, his face became extremely gloomy.

In this case, Naqu Sanniang wants to form a Taoist couple with him, it is really terrific!

The other party probably didn't even think about becoming his Taoist companion, but just let out rumors and made it specious, so as to confuse the public.

As for the purpose, besides using it to disgust that Zhangjia Huashen cultivator, the other is to use him as a shield, so as not to be approached by the main palace to deal with her.

"Thank you brother Xu for reminding me, this favor Lin has written down!"

Chen Lin thanked him via voice transmission. Given the friendship between the two of them, it was already a great gesture of favor for the other party to inform him.

"It doesn't matter. This is not a secret thing. The high-ranking monks in the city know that brother Lin and I are both foreigners. Naturally, we need to help each other."

Seeing that Chen Lin was grateful, Xu Shanjing's tone became much closer.

At this time, a group of three people came up from the stairs, and Xu Shanjing immediately got up to greet them.

When Chen Lin saw this, he knew that the master was right, so he stood up and cupped his hands like other monks.

"Dear friends, you have been waiting for a long time!"

Among the three, an old man in blue robe spoke loudly.

This person has a cultivation level of the late Yuanying period, but he is not standing in the main position. The one standing in the main position is a young man whose cultivation base is also at the peak of the early Yuanying period.

However, immortal cultivators cannot calculate their age based on their appearance, because youthful appearance does not necessarily mean young age.

"Meet fellow Daoist Chu!"

"Chu Daoyou's cultivation has become more and more exquisite!"

The blue-robed old man seemed to be popular, and the monks present were not embarrassed by the difference in cultivation level, instead they all greeted each other with a smile.

"Haha, thank you all for giving me face. I don't need to be too wordy for coming to this party. Everyone should be here for the baby spirit fruit. I will tell you about the situation."

The monks immediately fell silent.

The old man in the blue robe looked around and said, "First of all, I want to declare that this time is not a trade fair, but an organization for everyone to go treasure hunting together!"

When these words came out, everyone was stunned.

The faces of many monks changed.

The gap between treasure hunting and trading is too big, trading is just paying money, as long as there are enough spiritual crystals, you can definitely get something.

But the words of treasure hunting show that the baby spirit fruit is not under the control of the other party, they just know the news about the treasure, and they have to take the risk to explore it themselves.

Not to mention that the danger is definitely not low, and it is not necessarily possible to get the treasure. At the end of the exploration, it may be a waste of time to fetch water from the bamboo basket.

Chen Lin also frowned slightly, and glanced at Xu Shanjing.

Xu Shanjing smiled wryly, apparently also ignorant of the inside story.

This made him back off.

He has always been respectful and insensitive to treasure hunting, especially this kind of group treasure hunting, not only must guard against the danger of the place where the treasure exists, but also beware of the surprise attack of his companions when they see the treasure.

However, Chen Lin also hesitated.

After three years of retreat, he failed to break through the mid-term bottleneck, which gave him a sense of urgency.

He is now more than 300 years old, and his cultivation is still in the early stage of Yuanying, and the lifespan of Yuanying monks is only a thousand years. Even if he has the bonus of body training, he will not exceed [-] years old. There are worries about longevity.

After thinking about it, Chen Lin still looked at the blue-robed old man and listened to what he had to say.

If the place where the baby spirit fruit is located is not very dangerous, you can consider going there if you are fully prepared.

With his current comprehensive strength, even the Yuanying Consummate cultivator can contend head-on. As long as he keeps a low profile and is cautious, there shouldn't be much problem.

The blue-robed old man had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and still said with a smile: "Although it is a treasure hunt, that place is not very dangerous, just because there are many monsters, in order to prevent large-scale monsters from being attracted when the fruits are ripe." snatching, that's why we invited so many fellow Taoists to go together."

Immediately, he explained: "In addition, you don't have to worry about encountering high-level monsters. The baby spirit fruit tree found this time is in the Luoshen Swamp, and there are no monsters higher than the fourth level."

Seeing that everyone was still silent, the old man in blue robe glanced at the young man in the main seat, who nodded slightly.

The old man in the blue robe immediately said: "If you fellow daoists agree to participate, then we will provide the necessary Jieshen Dan. Whether you get the baby spirit fruit or not, each daoist friend can get five spirit crystals as a reward. If you get the baby spirit fruit , we only need three pieces, and the rest are freely distributed among fellow daoists!"
