I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 1966 Qinghuang

When Lao Zhou heard Chen Lin asking about the general's affair, he fell silent.

This surprised Chen Lin very much.

The other party's cultivation level is obviously not high, and he actually hesitated under the control of the Seal of Questioning the Heart. It seems that this great general has great deterrent power.

And he must have had an affair with the princess.

This gossip is very valuable.

Chen Lin immediately asked, "Is it Concubine Yu who is having an affair with the general?"

"No."

Old Zhou shook his head.

"Who is that?"

Chen Lin continued to question.

And maximize the effect of the Seal of Questioning the Heart.

Old Zhou was silent again, but ultimately he could not resist the power of the Seal of Questioning the Heart and spoke woodenly.

"As far as I know, except for Concubine Yu and the Queen, all of the King's concubines have had affairs with the General, even the maids around him are no exception."

Chen Lin's face twitched.

Good guy.

This great general must be mentally perverted, as he specifically targeted the women of King Yin.

and also.

It was probably not a coincidence that Duke Bai Yueguang asked Concubine Yu about the riddle instead of asking anyone else.

"Why did the general let the Queen and Concubine Yu go?"

Chen Lin continued to ask.

"Because the queen is the general's aunt."

Lao Zhou gave the answer.

But when it came to Yu Fei, hesitation appeared again.

After a pause, he replied, "Yu Fei's father is the Golden Emperor. According to ancient records, the Golden Emperor is just missing and no one knows whether he is alive or dead. In addition, the Three Jade Immortal Kingdom originally belonged to the Golden Emperor, and the Green Emperor was in charge, so the general has never touched her."

"The Golden Emperor's daughter?"

Chen Lin recalled the scene when he last came in and saw the fish concubine.

The other party mistook him for the Hidden King and wanted to have sex with him. Moreover, he was very afraid of the general and advised him not to try to confront the general.

The strength is definitely just average.

But this explains why Grand Duke Bai Yueguang pays special attention to Concubine Yu.

"What are the names of the Seven Emperors of Nightmare Realm? Are any of them still alive?"

Chen Lin asked faster.

"There are the Green Emperor, the Gold Emperor, the Wood Emperor, the Blue Emperor, the Red Emperor, the Phantom Emperor, and the Purple Emperor. According to the records in the classics, except for the Gold Emperor and the Purple Emperor, the rest have all perished."

Old Zhou did not resist the information from the Seventh Emperor.

"Have you ever heard of the names Kaguya and Niuniu?"

Chen Lin pondered for a moment and asked the question that concerned him most.

According to the toad in Duyun Lake, Niu Niu is the daughter of one of the seven emperors, but the other party did not say which emperor it was, so he wanted to find out.

"never heard of that."

Old Zhou shook his head blankly.

This answer disappointed Chen Lin a little, but it was also expected.

Niu Niu’s real name cannot be Niu Niu, and Kaguya is a real-life name. He is not sure whether the two are the same person, and if so, what is their relationship.

It’s normal that the other party doesn’t know.

After asking about the situation outside and feeling that there was nothing more to ask, Chen Lin stepped forward and put his hand on the other person's head.

Start erasing the other person's memory.

He is now also half a Nightmare creature, and his soul level is extremely high. It is not difficult to erase part of the memory of a low-level Nightmare creature.

Not a moment later.

Chen Lin put away the Seal of Inquiry and stuffed the secret book back into Lao Zhou's arms.

Fly back to the light gate.

At this moment, the light gate has become very dim and will collapse in less than a dozen breaths.

The other side.

Old Zhou shook his head and looked at the light gate in confusion.

"What's going on? The secret book says that as long as no one goes in, this entrance can last at least half a quarter of an hour. How could it disappear so quickly?"

He muttered to himself.

Then he walked quickly to the closed door.

He muttered again, "It may be that the demon thread ball has been left for too long, and its energy has weakened."

"never mind."

"Now that I'm here, I can't worry about anything else. There's an elixir of life in here. I'm going to die of old age soon anyway, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Lao Zhou encouraged himself.

Seeing that the light gate was getting darker and darker, he gritted his teeth and entered the passage.

As his figure entered, the light gate flashed and completely disappeared from Chen Lin's sight.

Chen Lin flew around the open space and landed on a bluestone.

I thought about it.

He didn't leave, just waited there.

Although the secret book was unreliable, he still wanted to see if Lao Zhou could take out the treasure from it.

And it's a bit dangerous to leave here now.

Through the inquiry just now, Chen Lin learned that this is the location of the imperial city of the Three Jade Fairy Kingdom.

The general is also in the city.

Be careful how you proceed.

That great general was at least at the initial stage of eternity. In the Nightmare Realm, he was no match for the other party.

However, Lao Zhou said that the general was affected by the changes in the fairyland and rarely showed up, especially at night. If he wanted to go out, he could wait until night.

Chen Lin waited patiently.

To explore the Nightmare Realm, you need patience.

Time passed slowly.

It didn't take too long to wait. In less than an hour, a flash of light appeared on the open ground, and Lao Zhou's figure appeared out of thin air.

"Who?"

As soon as the figure stood firm, he let out a low shout and looked towards where Chen Lin was.

Chen Lin's heart sank.

This person is definitely not Lao Zhou, he must have been possessed by another spirit!

Both his tone and demeanor were completely different from Lao Zhou's. The person trapped in this underground palace might be the remaining soul of Qing Huang, so it was obvious who had possessed him.

"You are sneaking around. If you don't come out, don't blame me for being rude!"

It’s really the Green Emperor!

Chen Lin's heart was filled with alarm, but he did not listen to the other party. Instead, he increased his efforts to hide.

"Hmph, there's no need to hide. Even if Xikli is in front of me, he has to show his true form honestly, not to mention you, a small outsider."

Old Zhou stretched his body and snorted coldly.

Chen Lin's expression kept changing when he heard this.

Finally, he resisted the urge to leave and flew down from the boulder, while retracting the invisibility effect of his cloak.

Bow to Old Zhou.

"Greetings to His Majesty, the Green Emperor. I just accidentally entered this place and did not intend to offend you. Please do not blame me, Your Majesty."

Qing Huang looked at Chen Lin.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

"What a high-level soul, it actually gave birth to a soul root!"

Chen Lin didn't say anything.

I became more alert in my heart.

He didn't feel any energy fluctuations from the other party, but the other party could see the state of his soul at a glance, which meant that his strength was still there.

The opponent was originally the master, even if his strength was only 10% left, he would not be able to resist.

"Your Majesty, is there anything you want me to do?"

Chen Lin said respectfully.

The other party has great strength, but did not take action immediately. There must be a reason.

"clever."

Qing Huang showed an expression of appreciation.

"It's still the outsiders who have good brains. Although the creatures in the Nightmare Realm have gained power, their intelligence is bound by the rules. I don't know whether it is a gain or a loss."

I sighed.

Qing Huang looked at Chen Lin again.

Then he took out a golden scroll.

He slowly unfolded it. He said loudly, "Chen Lin accepts the order!"

As the voice fell, Chen Lin felt an infinite power added to his body, making him want to kneel down.

He was very familiar with this kind of power.

It’s the feeling of being the only secret method, which is hard to describe but is superior to any energy.

This is the power of the master!

Chen Lin immediately activated the Death Gaze and also used his great power to fight against it.

But his power compared to that of the other party was like a gurgling stream and a vast ocean; they were completely on different levels, and his knees still bent down little by little.

He immediately activated his soul spots and resisted again.

"Ok?"

After the soul spot was activated, Chen Lin felt the pressure on his body relieved.

Although he still couldn't break free from the restraints of the great power, the idea of ​​kneeling on the ground was weakened, allowing him to remain in the state of bending over.

He understood immediately.

The person in front of me is not as strong as I imagined.

Even if the other party has the strength to truly dominate 10%, he is not able to contend with him. The other party has been trapped for so many years, and the remaining soul is probably on the verge of extinction.

It is still unclear whether one’s strength can reach the late stage of eternity.

This made Chen Lin feel much more at ease.

Unless the opponent is in the middle or late stage of Eternity, he will not be forced into a desperate situation. As long as he uses the Sword Girl's Unintentional Sword, he will have a chance to escape unscathed.

The Sword Girl is a creature from the Nightmare Realm. The sword intent she stores is even more powerful in the Nightmare Realm.

Qing Huang looked indifferent.

Chen Lin's resistance was ignored.

He continued to read: "In accordance with the rules, an imperial decree is issued, ordering the monk Chen Lin to kill the rebellious Shu Shu of the Immortal Kingdom. He must complete it within 300 years. If he succeeds, he will be rewarded handsomely, and if he fails, he will be severely punished!"

Finished reading.

The imperial edict turned into a golden light and fell on Chen Lin.

Chen Lin's expression changed.

He didn't think about why the other party knew his name, but immediately checked his body. However, after checking from top to bottom, he didn't find anything abnormal.

It seems to be a mystery.

He looked at Qing Huang opposite him again and found that his figure was fading, as if he was about to leave.

"Your Majesty, you are wise. The general is very powerful. Please grant me a treasure so that I can complete my mission."

Chen Lin hurriedly made the request.

Since the imperial edict gave three hundred years, it meant that in the other party's eyes, he was no match for the general now, and it would be best if he could get some benefits out of it.

"I am just a remnant soul, I have no treasure to give you."

Chen Lin's face darkened.

There is no treasure, but they still talk about a big reward after completing the task. It seems like they are just empty promises.

"But you don't need to worry about the reward."

Qing Huang sensed Chen Lin's mood change and made a promise.

"The reward may not be in kind. I can upgrade your title, give you merit coins, and grant you an official position and high-level road pass authority. As long as you succeed in assassinating Shu Shu, the benefits will definitely satisfy you."

Chen Lin was still unwilling to give in.

The promises made by the creatures from the Nightmare Realm cannot be trusted at all.

He thought about it.

He then tried to probe: "Can you teach me some magical skills that can be used against the general? I will go back and practice diligently, and strive to succeed in cultivation within three hundred years."

"You can't learn my heritage."

Qing Huang refused again.

After hesitating for a moment, he explained, "Although I am in the Immortal Kingdom, I am not a cultivator. You can't use me at all. You can only rely on yourself for the assassination mission. You are a person with great luck, and I believe you can do it."

Chen Lin was speechless.

This is really stingy.

"Then Your Majesty, can you tell me about the general's abilities and weaknesses? If you want me to do something, you have to provide some information, right?"

Since the other party didn't want to give any benefits, Chen Lin's tone was no longer respectful.

Qing Huang shook his head again.

"I don't know Shushu. I just felt my son's resentment in the underground palace, so I helped him. I can't stay outside for too long, and I can't leave the palace too far, so I can only count on you."

This explanation made Chen Lin understand.

He was cheated!

The other party has been bluffing all along.

The purpose is to trigger the imperial edict. The imperial edict should be the other party's imperial power, which can be condensed into rules. As long as it is successfully triggered, he will not be able to refuse.

"Then I have one more request."

Chen Lin's mind was racing.

You have to get benefits from the other party. You can't work for free. You have to give a deposit at least.

You can also test the opponent's strength again.

suddenly.

He thought of something.

He immediately said, "Since Your Majesty can't produce a treasure, I have a treasure that has not been refined yet. I need a strong man to help refine it. I would like to trouble Your Majesty to help me. With this treasure, my hope of killing the general will be greatly improved."

Qing Huang frowned.

But he still asked: "What treasure, what kind of ritual and refining method do you need, and what do you need me to do?"

Chen Lin immediately recounted the ritual and refining process of the nameless treasure refining technique.

As for what treasure.

He didn't say.

The Green Emperor is not a good person, and the Star Toad is the supreme treasure. If the other party is tempted by the treasure, his Star Toad will become his.

"It is a mysterious method of refining treasures."

After listening to Chen Lin's story, Qing Huang showed an expression of appreciation.

He pondered for a moment.

Finally, there was a nod.

"Okay, then I'll do you a favor. Take this bead. As long as it's not a powerful rule treasure, it will be able to shock it."

A green light bloomed on Qing Huang's palm, and a bead the size of a thumb condensed into it.

Wrapped in energy, it was sent to Chen Lin.

"When you need to shock and refine something, just crush it. Remember not to forget the three hundred years limit, otherwise the punishment will be severe. I'll be waiting for your good news..."

As soon as Chen Lin caught the bead, the Green Emperor disappeared.

Waited for a while.

After making sure that the other party had left, Chen Lin let out a sigh of relief.

He seemed relaxed, but in fact he was in a state of extreme tension, fearing that the other party would attack him.

Now it seems.

The other party really just wanted him to assassinate the general and had no intention of taking over his body. It is also possible that he originally wanted to take over his body, but found that his situation was special and could not achieve his goal.

Anyway, this stage is over.

As for the three hundred years later, he can only take one step at a time. He has two merit coins. Even if he cannot complete the task, he can use the merit coins to be exempted from punishment.

I just don't know whether the merit coins are effective against the punishment of the imperial edict. I have to find out.

"This is really like drinking cold water and getting your teeth stuck."

Chen Lin complained secretly.

How could he not have expected that he would encounter such an unexpected situation when entering the scene corresponding to the Lower Yuan Domain? Even Qing Huang ran out in person.

The exploration of the Nightmare Realm cannot lead to any unnecessary complications.

You must not be arrogant.

If he hadn't been curious about Old Zhou, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in complaining.

Chen Lin put away his negative emotions and checked his body again.

Instead of going to find the general immediately, he chose to return to his fiefdom.

There were marks of imperial decree on his body.

Going out rashly would not only put oneself in danger, but would also implicate Luo Qinglan.

Because his purpose of coming to this scene was to find Luo Qinglan, he would definitely inquire after going out. As a general, it is impossible for Shu Shu not to get the information.

It’s better to be patient for now.

"Master is back so soon?"

When Chen Lin returned to his fiefdom, Xiao Cao was there with Tao Bao by her side.

"Daddy!"

When Taobao saw Chen Lin, he immediately flew over excitedly.

A smile appeared on Chen Lin's face.

He touched the other person's head, then said to Xiaocao: "Don't go find Isa yet, let's go back to the outside world, I want to refine a treasure!"
