I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 1984 Soul Search

Chen Lin looked at the person coming over warily.

This is a man with a head as big as a bucket and a body as thin as a stick. He is less than three feet tall and his whole body is dark, except for his facial features, which are white. He looks very abstract.

The aura from the other party was very obscure, and it was impossible to sense his specific cultivation level, but it gave people a faint sense of danger.

"Who are you?"

Glancing at the other person, Chen Lin bowed and asked.

No matter how strange the other person looked, he seemed to be mentally normal, so he wanted to get closer to him and showed enough goodwill.

The big-headed man showed contempt.

He looked down and said, "How dare a mere lowly creature like you ask for my name?"

Without waiting for Chen Lin to speak.

He suddenly raised his hand, and a mysterious rune flashing with faint light flew out from his palm and flew towards Chen Lin.

At the same time, he spoke calmly.

"It just so happens that I need an ingredient, so I'll use you as a substitute!"

As soon as the rune appeared, Chen Lin felt a terrifying pressure, as if he was not facing a rune, but a powerful god that he could not look directly at. He subconsciously wanted to worship and offer everything he had.

But right away.

His soul spot trembled, and his soul power washed over his spirit platform, breaking free from the mental suppression.

Consciousness becomes clear.

"Humph!"

Chen Lin snorted coldly.

No longer hoping to communicate with the other party, he flicked his fingers and the Soul-Destroying Finger shot out like a crossbow, one part heading towards the rune and the other part attacking the other party's body.

"impossible!"

The big-headed man exclaimed.

It seemed that he did not expect Chen Lin to be able to break free from the suppression of the rune, let alone counterattack, so he hurriedly dodged.

But it was too late.

He was careless and caught off guard, and Chen Lin blocked all his hiding spaces at the same time. He only dodged three attacks, and two of them still hit him.

Vitality faded in an instant.

But he didn't die.

The big-headed man shook twice, and a dazzling black light burst out from his body, and an energy vortex formed between his eyebrows.

However, he was horrified to discover that no matter what means he used, he could not stop the decay of his soul.

no way.

He immediately looked at the rune he had just released, wanting to take it back for defense, but his expression froze.

The rune was also hit by the Soul-Destroying Finger and disappeared bit by bit before he could control it.

"How can this be!"

The big-headed man was stunned.

Seeing Chen Lin extending his finger again, he hurriedly bowed down in mid-air.

He begged weakly, "God, please calm down. I didn't mean to offend you. I was forced into a corner and had to come out to find offerings. I didn't expect that I would offend you with my blindness. Please forgive me and spare my life. I am willing to sign a master-servant contract and be your slave for life!"

"Oh?"

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows, seeming to be interested.

Seeing this, the big-headed man immediately kowtowed and said, "Don't worry, God. I am the most loyal. Moreover, I am good at making things. I can be used by God anytime and anywhere. It is definitely worth it."

"That's it."

Chen Lin pondered for a moment.

He nodded slightly and said, "Okay, then I'll give you a chance to live, but if you can't satisfy me, I will still take your life."

"Of course, of course, God, rest assured!"

The big-headed man patted his chest and assured.

Deep in his eyes, there flashed a hint of contempt for someone's conspiracy to succeed.

Chen Lin stretched out his palm.

He moved forward slowly and said, "In that case, you should relax and let me plant the contract mark. Don't play any tricks, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

"It all depends on God's intervention!"

The big-headed man closed his eyes slightly, looking as if he was letting himself be manipulated.

"very good."

Chen Lin praised.

Then he drew a symbol in the void, condensing a contract rune.

"go with!"

Drink lightly.

The contract rune flew towards the big-headed man's head.

A look of joy immediately appeared in the big-headed man's lowered eyes, as if accepting the contract was really a good thing for him.

Chen Lin kept staring at the other person.

At this moment, I couldn't help but feel surprised. This guy is really honest and doesn't seem to be up to any tricks.

But I still suppressed the thought.

He didn't really want to make a contract with the other party. He did this just to bring the condensed soul net closer so as to capture the other party's soul by surprise.

The opponent was still able to speak after being hit by two Soul-Destroying Finger attacks from him. His soul level must be not low. He might even have some means of saving his life. We must not let him fight to the death.

When the rune floated to the top of the big-headed man's head, Chen Lin immediately used all his strength to activate the soul spot and launched the most powerful soul-destroying finger!

At such a close distance, the big-headed man had no chance to dodge and was hit directly in the face.

The vitality disappeared quickly in an instant.

"receive!"

Chen Lin spoke in a low voice.

The rune floating above the big-headed man's head shone brightly, covering the area of ​​dozens of feet in radius centered on the big-headed man.

A light network is formed.

Followed by.

A vague shadow appeared in the light net, rushing left and right, but unable to break the light net.

The shadow looked at Chen Lin and kept begging for mercy.

Chen Lin was unmoved.

Control the light net to shrink little by little, imprison the shadow inside, and then perform the soul-searching technique.

But he frowned immediately.

Although the opponent's soul has reached the brink of extinction, it is still very tough and the soul-searching technique cannot be effective.

I thought about it.

Chen Lin glanced around and disappeared on the spot with the soul net.

I don’t know how many miles away it is.

The figure reappeared.

Sensing that the big-headed man's soul was about to disintegrate, Chen Lin did not delay any longer and directly performed the secret soul-controlling technique.

The soul-killing secret technique impacts all levels of the soul, unlike the Soul-Destroying Finger, which only destroys the soul's vitality and can weaken the opponent's soul's resistance.

As for the limitations of the art of sacrificing one's life for justice, they can be basically ignored in the abyss. None of the creatures here are good.

It is estimated that even if you search the entire abyss, you won’t be able to find a good person. What’s more, the other party wants to catch him, so he is definitely a bad guy.

Just as Chen Lin expected.

It was effective against soul arts, and with the help of the secret arts, the soul-searching technique also took effect.

However, performing two secret techniques at the same time would consume a great deal of the soul. Chen Lin could only temporarily give up his perception of the outside world and concentrate on checking the other party's memory.

But even so, the memories obtained are scattered.

After just a little bit of it, the other person's soul couldn't bear it and was completely shattered.

Chen Lin shook his head.

He put away his Soul Net ability, then touched his chin with a strange look on his face, and turned into a beam of light and left the spot.

a few days later.

Chen Lin returned to the bottom of the wall of the boundary river and looked at the flower light group not far away.

According to the big-headed man's memory, not all the light balls in the abyss are treasures, but are divided into several categories.

One is the energy field of powerful creatures. Some creatures are in an emergency dormant state for various reasons and do not want to be disturbed by external objects, so they release force fields as a warning.

Such balls of light are usually very large and have obvious pressure. When faced with a powerful attack, they will retract their light and escape.

The second type of light ball is the entrance to the secret space.

But such obvious entrances are basically traps. Inside are either powerful evil gods or dangerous places where one is sure to die. There are not many benefits.

This type of entrance also has its own characteristics.

That is, the position basically does not change, and the shape and color of the light ball also vary, similar to the eternal stars in the void.

The third type of light ball is natural treasures, or some powerful treasures.

There are relatively few light clusters of this type.

Especially the rare treasures, once they appear they will be targeted by the creatures in the abyss, and it is a great opportunity to come across them.

In addition, there are some strange light balls that are difficult to identify. Even the big-headed man does not know all the information. The deeper you go into the abyss, the more dangerous it is. The other party can only act on the upper level and is unaware of the situation below.

After recalling his soul-searching memories for a while, Chen Lin's soul left his body again and sent his body into the cave jade pendant.

Roll up the jade pendant and fly towards the ball of light.

Since the natural treasures in the abyss are so rare, it is necessary to collect them. If you cannot use them yourself, you can use them for trading.

Otherwise, if he encountered a creature that could communicate, he really wouldn't have any good items to trade.

The closer you are to the light ball, the stronger the feeling of oppression.

In the end, Chen Lin had to use all his strength to activate the origin of his soul spots to fight against it, only then was he able to avoid being eroded by the energy.

But even so.

When he was about ten feet away from the flower, he could no longer bear it and could not move forward any further.

Chen Lin frowned.

It is incredible that a flower has such strong defense, and this defensive force field is only released instinctively. If the flower has consciousness and can actively launch attacks, he is afraid that he will not even be able to get close to it.

But this also made Chen Lin very confused.

Such a powerful treasure should have given birth to spiritual consciousness and become a fairy-like cultivator long ago.

But the other party didn't react.

It took him such a long time to go up and down, and his position barely changed. He must have no intelligence.

Could it be that the natural treasures in the abyss are unable to awaken wisdom and cannot be transformed into monsters?

While thinking, Chen Lin circled around the flowers.

He looked up and down and left and right several times but couldn't find a breakthrough. Finally, he had to make up his mind and used his soul-destroying finger on the flower.

No matter whether it is useful or not, it always makes sense to give it a try. There is no way to collect it anyway, so there is no need to worry about damaging the flowers.

immediately.

Chen Lin's eyes lit up.

When the Soul-Destroying Finger hit the flower, the light suddenly dimmed and the energy field was weakened a lot.

He immediately resumed his attack.

After a dozen fingers, the ball of light completely shrank back, and the feeling of oppression disappeared. Only a huge flower with weak vitality was left, slowly rotating.

Chen Lin tried a few times and when he saw no danger, he took out the container and was about to put the flowers away.

But his expression changed immediately.

As soon as his hand touched the flower, the petals began to wither rapidly, even faster than being hit by the Soul-Destroying Finger.

In the blink of an eye, half of the petals dried up.

Chen Lin quickly retracted his hand.

Then he tried to collect it in other ways, but it still didn't work. No matter whether it was a treasure or a big energy hand, as long as it touched the flowers, the flowers would dry up quickly.

It is not possible to store them directly in large containers.

The flowers seemed to need to absorb a large amount of energy from the abyss. If it was slightly blocked, they would not be able to continue to survive.

“It’s a bit troublesome.”

Chen Lin looked at the flowers with a hesitant expression.

It is normal that some of the high-level natural treasures are difficult to collect. He has also encountered spiritual plants that are more delicate than this. As long as he understands their habits clearly, there is nothing that cannot be collected.

But this is the abyss.

Affected by the strange aura, many treasures and methods are useless. Now there is only one way to take the flowers away.

That is to transplant the flowers into the Dongtian Jade Pendant.

What made Chen Lin hesitate was that the Dongtian Jade Pendant was now his storage device, and most of his wealth was stored in it. Once the flower had developed intelligence but had been hidden, it would be easy to cause trouble if it was transplanted in.

He was even more unwilling to give up.

He hesitated for a moment.

Chen Lin decided to give it a try.

This flower is related to his next move, so he must take it with him. If it is really not possible, he will just carry all the treasures with him and observe for a while.

Make a decision without thinking too much.

Chen Lin first took out the important items in the cave, then used his soul power to roll up the flower and quickly sent it inside.

I also entered.

Find an open space and stick the roots of the flowers into the soil.

But Chen Lin's face looked very ugly.

After the flowers were planted, they still withered quickly, and even the source of life could not stop it.

"It's really hard to please."

He sighed helplessly.

He has done everything he can. If he cannot survive, it just means he does not have the chance. There is no need to worry about gains and losses.

correct.

Chen Lin suddenly had an idea and looked at the confused fruit tree.

Then he pulled out the flower that had withered to the roots and plunged it into the pond.

The pond is not big to begin with, and with the fruit tree planted in the middle, it would be a bit crowded with the flowers.

But the effect is very good.

After the flowers were placed in the pond, they stopped withering immediately, and the previously withered parts regained vitality.

After a few breaths, it returned to its original state.

Chen Lin showed his delight.

It’s not just because the flowers were planted successfully, but also because I felt the extraordinary nature of this pond. In the future, if I have any special spiritual plants, I don’t have to worry about planting them.

Moreover, the Dongtian Jade Pendant can be carried with you and can be used whenever you want.

The only drawback is that the pond is too small and the spiritual plants that can be planted are limited.

"Old Turtle, you keep an eye on this carefully. If there is anything unusual, alert me immediately!"

It was too dangerous outside, so Chen Lin didn't dare to stay in the cave for a long time. He told the old turtle and went back outside.

He grabbed the jade pendant and quickly left the place.

There is no pause.

Chen Lin went down all the way and came to the edge of the dark area again.

Then look around.

It took months too long to finally determine the location, and tentatively entered the dim area below.

Just entered.

Chen Lin felt his body sink and began to fall involuntarily. He immediately flapped his soul wings to steady himself.

He looked down in confusion.

But it was pitch black below, visibility was very low, and I couldn't see very far.

Look back.

Chen Lin flapped his wings upwards and left the dark area.

The body feels lighter.

Back down again, the body began to fall again.

Leaving the dim area, Chen Lin seemed to be thinking about something.

The feeling of falling in the dim area is not abnormal, but the gravity that exists in normal interfaces.

It’s just that he had lived in the Void Realm for too long, and the environment here was similar to that of the Void Realm, so he didn’t react immediately.

but.

If there is gravity, there must be ground. Could it be that the bottom of the abyss is land?
