I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chen Lin looked at the rainbow world ball of light from afar and asked Ji Yueqing.

This ball of light is also rotating slowly, but because it is so huge, it is always bordering the abyss, so there must be a connection point.

Ji Yueqing also looked over.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I remember when we were exploring the alien world, there was a saying that went around, three rivers, two caves, and one bridge. These six places are all passages connecting the inside and the outside, and your Rainbow Realm occupies two of them. Do you know about this?"

"I have heard a little bit, but I don't know it very clearly. I hope Brother Ji can help me solve my doubts."

Chen Lin nodded.

This jingle was told to him by Daisy, and Bai Niao knew it. It should be widely circulated in the alien domain, but Daisy didn't explain it in too much detail at the time, so he didn't think he was right and wanted to hear the other party's opinion.

"The three rivers are the Forgotten River, the Starlight River, and the Tongtian River."

Ji Yueqing didn't say anything more.

"Among them, the Wangchuan River is the most bizarre, the Xingguang River is the most beautiful, and the Tongtian River is the most extensive."

"Tongtian River has the widest range?"

Chen Lin's heart moved and he immediately asked questions.

"Yes."

Ji Yueqing glanced at the boundary river above again.

Then he said: "No one knows the source of Tongtian River. We only know that it comes from the void and turns into countless tributaries, running through all over the alien domain. There are also many tributaries flowing into the boundary river. You should have the same in your Rainbow Realm."

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

He always felt that the Tongtian River in the Void Realm was not worthy of its name.

How could a river that can penetrate the wall of the boundary river be cut off by the Eternal Monk? It would be reasonable if it was just a tributary.

This was also the case with his previous guess.

So explain the situation.

"The Rainbow Realm does have a tributary, but it has been cut off by an ancient powerful being and does not flow into the abyss."

"The Tongtian River itself does not reach the abyss."

Ji Yueqing spoke immediately.

He then continued, "Of the three great rivers, only the Forgotten River spans across the three realms. However, the Forgotten River is very strange. Only its tributaries appear in the underworld, and no one can find where its main body is."

"So you don't have to think too much about going back through the Forgotten River."

"The Starlight River is formed by the gathering of starlight. There is no starlight in the abyss, and this river does not exist."

There was a pause.

Ji Yueqing continued to tell the story.

"The two caves are the Lightless Cave and the Yin-Yang Cave."

"The lightless holes are free black holes in the void. They vary in size and number. They may appear anywhere. If you enter from one hole, you will come out from another hole, but you cannot be sure where you will be sent to."

"These black holes are also very dangerous. If you are not an eternal strong person, whether you can survive or not depends on luck."

"As for the Yin Yang Cave, it was created by humans and is a relic from before the Tianqing Catastrophe."

Ji Yueqing knows them all.

Continue explaining slowly and steadily.

"It is rumored that the people who created this relic were a couple, and their whereabouts are unknown. Only the Yin Yang Island, a training ground, was left behind. It seems to have appeared in your Rainbow Realm. The Yin Yang Cave on the island was mainly arranged to absorb high-level energy, so it may be connected to the abyss."

"But it seems that only people with destiny can go up to this island. Otherwise, even the eternally perfect strong cannot force their way in."

Chen Lin looked surprised.

He didn't expect that the other party knew so much details, which gave him a comprehensive understanding of this information.

Ma said, "Fellow Daoist Ji is right. Yin Yang Island is in the Rainbow Realm. You may have seen the connection point between Yin Yang Cave and the Abyss in the boundary river?"

"How can it be."

Ji Yueqing looked speechless.

"If I had that ability, I wouldn't have been trapped in the abyss for so many years."

He gave Chen Lin a blank look.

She continued to explain, "In addition to these six wonders, the other nodes connecting the inner and outer boundaries of the river are not immutable. The longest ones can last for tens of thousands of years, while the shortest ones may break overnight."

"The strange aura of the abyss is getting worse now. I'm afraid the previous nodes are no longer useful. It's better to go to the statue of Guluoqi as soon as possible."

Chen Lin remained silent.

It took a long time before he looked at the other person.

"The bottom of the abyss must be extremely dangerous. With your and my current strength, isn't it too risky? Not to mention encountering powerful abyss creatures, I'm afraid I can't even withstand the strong abyss aura."

"How will you know if you don't try."

Ji Yueqing seemed to have made up her mind.

He said eagerly: "Practice is to go against the will of heaven, how can we do it without taking risks? Along the way, what I am least afraid of is danger. The more dangerous the place, the greater the opportunities."

Chen Lin was silent again.

Then he shook his head and said, "I don't agree with what Fellow Daoist Ji said, so I won't go on the expedition with you. I'd better look for the nodes on the upper level first, and then make a decision."

His ideas are completely contrary to those of the other party.

Moreover, the other party has been trapped for ten thousand years, and his mentality must have been affected. He doesn't want to go crazy with him.

Furthermore.

He hasn't reached the end of his rope yet.

There are many methods that have not been tried and many places that have not been explored. If it doesn't work, you can still enter the feather pen scene.

Going to the bottom of the abyss can only be a last resort.

"There are no nodes on the upper layer. Over the past ten thousand years, the entire area below the wall of the river has been explored. You don't have to harbor any more illusions."

Ji Yueqing tried her best to persuade him.

She also did not have the confidence to go deep into the abyss and needed Chen Lin's cooperation. She could see that Chen Lin's finger technique to repel Chirio was extraordinary and he was extremely restrained against the abyss creatures. With Chen Lin by her side, the chances of reaching the bottom of the abyss increased greatly.

But Chen Lin had made up his mind.

He shook his head again and said, "I won't go. I wish you a safe journey, Brother Ji."

Ji Yueqing looked disappointed.

But he didn't continue to persuade her.

Practitioners who can cultivate to the true realm and above are all very independent-minded people and will not be easily influenced by the words of others.

So he nodded.

"Well, you continue to explore, and I'll go explore the way first."

After saying that, he took out a thumb-sized purple flower.

It is shaped like a trumpet, with mysterious patterns faintly flashing on it.

Ji Yueqing handed the flower to Chen Lin.

He said seriously, "This is something I got in the abyss. I don't know what it's called, but the flowers on a vine can transmit sound to each other. I don't know how far it can be effective. You take it first. If I can reach the statue, I will transmit sound to you. Whether you can receive it depends on your luck."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed.

He clasped his fists and took it.

I thought about it.

Take out a bottle of Daqingdan elixir.

He gave it to the other party and said, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. Although this bottle of liquid is not as mysterious as the Seven-Colored Glazed Liquid, it can also improve the level of life and resist the erosion of the abyss energy. I will give it to Fellow Daoist Ji."

Ji Yueqing was stunned.

He held the bottle in his hand with some suspicion.

I opened it and sniffed it.

Then pour a little bit directly into your mouth.

Chen Lin's mouth twitched.

The other party was really unscrupulous. He used items of unknown origin without hesitation, which made him, the person who took out the items, feel rash.

But there is also some warmth.

This shows that in the eyes of the other party, his character is still trustworthy.

"nice one!"

Ji Yueqing exclaimed in praise after tasting it.

Cover the bottle and put it away.

He looked at Chen Lin and waved, "See you again if we're lucky enough. I'm leaving!" Then his figure turned into a stream of light and shot away into the distance, disappearing from Chen Lin's sight in the blink of an eye.

Chen Lin floated in place and kept watching.

After a long time, he shook his head.

He envied the other person's straightforwardness and unrestrainedness, but that was not his way, and he was destined to never be able to be like the other person.

After looking at the boundary river above, Chen Lin also flew away.

Ten years later.

In the dim void, Chen Lin looked at the huge black bird in front of him, and with his Soul-Destroying Finger, he killed the bird in an instant.

The crystals in the bird's head were dug out, and some useful materials were simply collected.

Fly away from the original place quickly.

Thousands of miles away.

Chen Lin stopped.

He studied the crystals for a while and then put them away casually.

Thanks to the power of the Soul-Destroying Finger, he has hunted many abyss creatures in the past ten years. The abyss crystals have piled up into a small hill. Although most of them are low-level species and have not even formed a complete inheritance text, their value is immeasurable.

If he could take it to the Strange Man Island, not only could he exchange it for a huge amount of Yin-Yang Spirit Rice, but he could also enhance his status as a strange man.

Unfortunately.

No node has been found in ten years.

Not only did he fail to find the node, he also failed to encounter any cultivators who came out of other boundary rivers.

Instead, he encountered a powerful evil god who almost corrupted him and turned him into a slave. Fortunately, he had a strong soul and did not completely lose his mind. He found a chance to escape.

From that time on, he didn't dare go any deeper and kept wandering around the middle and upper levels.

Anyway, the weird aura in the upper and middle levels has little effect on him, so he doesn't need to be as anxious as Ji Yueqing. His own safety should be the most important thing.

Looked around.

Chen Lin continued his journey of exploration.

The abyss is not endless, and the scope of exploration in ten years is not that large, so we need to continue our efforts.

In the vast silence, time passes quickly.

A hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Lin gradually understood Ji Yueqing's mentality.

lonely.

anxiety.

Worry.

Negative emotions continue to grow.

If there is even the slightest loophole in one's state of mind, it will be infinitely magnified, and then the strange aura will take advantage of it and enter, transforming oneself into an abyss creature.

A large portion of the creatures in the abyss are alienated in this way. Clues can be seen from the bodies after dissection, and basically, traces of the original cultivation can still be seen.

What made Chen Lin strange was.

Even creatures formed by mutations will form abyss crystals, and there will be inheritance patterns on the crystals.

The occurrence of crystallization is understandable.

This means that the form of energy existence has changed. By concentrating one's own cultivation into one place, one can absorb the energy of the abyss to maintain survival.

But to condense the inheritance pattern is somewhat unbelievable.

Inheritance usually comes from blood and it is impossible to appear out of thin air. Could it be that during the process of alienation, even the blood has changed?

Or.

The strange aura in the abyss is 'alive' and can change the properties of living things while giving them inheritance?

That would be horrible.

After having this thought, Chen Lin became more careful, not daring to let the strange aura erode him in the slightest.

I'm also a little worried about Ji Yueqing.

The other party has already been eroded, and he doesn't know if any abnormal changes will occur. He also hopes that the other party will find out the secret of the scroll and provide him with the message.

After more than a hundred years of trying, Chen Lin still hadn't been able to find the node, and he actually had given up hope.

During this period, he also used his innate ability to predict, but failed. The level of his innate ability was still insufficient, and he was unable to manifest the line of destiny.

After all, the abyss is a place of the same level as the alien domain. The laws are more powerful, and the requirements for innate abilities are naturally higher.

If you want your talent to take effect, you have to continue to upgrade your level.

But it's not easy.

Although the suppression of the abyss energy on him will disappear after entering the cave jade pendant, the formation at the bottom of the cave pool can also transform the abyss energy into pure spiritual energy to maintain the operation of the cave.

But there is still a difference from being within the boundary river.

First of all, the perception of the Nightmare Realm is still limited. Except for the feather pen scene, other scenes and fiefdoms cannot be sensed.

Colored road signs are not an option either.

Chen Lin can understand the reason for this.

The Dongtian Jade Pendant belongs to a secret realm, not an independent interface, so it is restricted by the interface it is in. It is already exaggerated enough that it can transform the energy of the abyss into pure spiritual energy.

So it is.

The power of the laws in the cave is not strong. It is okay for normal practice, but it is not very likely to condense the truth or break through the realm.

Naturally, it is impossible to improve one's talents through practice.

But Chen Lin made a discovery.

Because innate abilities are the embodiment of the innate fusion of oneself and the laws, they can be exerted without leveraging external laws, so he can unfold the picture of destiny.

And can enter the River of Destiny!

This discovery gave Chen Lin hope.

The River of Destiny is everywhere, and there is a possibility of encountering other practitioners in it. You can ask for help from the outside world. Others may not be able to help, but Ancestor Wuhun will definitely be able to. At worst, you can just agree to the other party's request at that time.

If you don't meet any cultivators, then collect more energy balls and rely on external objects to improve your innate abilities.

The only difficulty now is how to ensure one's own safety after entering the cave jade pendant.

That's why.

Chen Lincai was slow to act.

The Dongtian Jade Pendant needs to convert energy, so there are energy fluctuations, and it even emits a faint light, allowing it to float alone in the void, making it easy to be discovered.

No action can be taken lightly until the safety issue is resolved.

It really doesn't work.

As soon as Chen Lin stretched out his hand, the Star-Swallowing Frog appeared.

This treasure is made up of his soul fragments, so its reliability is unquestionable. Because of its dominant characteristics, it can also resist the erosion of strange auras. Putting the Dongtian Jade Pendant in the mouth of this thing is a solution.

But there are flaws.

This treasure is suppressed here and its power is greatly reduced. If it is discovered by a strong person, it may be taken away.

Once he entered the River of Destiny, he would no longer be able to pay attention to the situation outside.

"Just wait a little longer, it should be soon."

Chen Lin muttered something and didn't make a decision immediately.

During these one hundred years, because he could not practice normally, he spent most of his time in the process of searching for nodes to comprehend the Great Fusion Technique and the Soul-Destroying Finger.

There was no significant progress with the Soul-Destroying Finger, but the Great Fusion Technique had achieved some success.

Attempts to fuse other Star Toad fragments have already begun.

I believe that after the fusion, the power of the treasure will be qualitatively improved. I will decide whether to enter the River of Destiny based on the situation at that time.

The more anxious you are, the more you need to calm down.

Chen Lin suppressed his restlessness and continued to explore the new area.

Time flows away again.

A decade has passed.

During this period, something happened that made Chen Lin depressed.

Ji Yueqing activated the communication flower, but it only uttered a scream, and nothing happened. Moreover, this communication flower was disposable and would wither after being activated, so he had no way to send a reverse message.

The road to the Guluochi statue is temporarily blocked.

But there is one good thing.

After spending a decade, the Star-Swallowing Frog finally succeeded in fusing a fragment, and its power was raised to the Eternal Level! (End of this chapter)
