I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2078 Identification
"Fellow Daoist needs a soul-type treasure, and I happen to have some here. Please take a look and see if it suits you."

The veiled woman pulled Chen Lin back to reality.

He looked at the other person in surprise.

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you wait for that person to return? Perhaps he can also retrieve the Rainbow Flower, and at a cheaper price than mine."

"It doesn't matter who he trades with, and he might not even succeed anyway."

The veiled woman's tone remained completely unchanged.

Then he took out a small bottle.

"This is a piece of soul ash. Fellow Daoist, do you know its purpose?"

Chen Lin nodded.

“I know, but it’s not enough to exchange for Rainbow Flowers. If you have more than twenty, I can consider it.”

He's used it so much in his life that he's become numb to it and doesn't think it's anything special anymore.

The veiled woman fell silent.

The value of soul ash is self-evident. For cultivators who cultivate their souls, even a single portion is extremely precious, and asking for twenty portions is simply outrageous.

I thought about it.

She took out another small bottle.

"Heavenly One Divine Water can increase the strength of a unique secret technique. Fellow Daoist, you just used a unique secret technique, so you should need this, right?"

Chen Lin looked at the bottle.

After pondering for a moment, he shook his head.

"Ordinary Heavenly One Divine Water is useless to me, and this thing is completely incomparable to Rainbow Flower. If you have such things, don't waste your time taking them out."

His death stare has advanced to a higher level, and the Heavenly Divine Water has little effect.

and.

If he wants to obtain this item, he can simply go to Yuan Qing.

Thinking of Yuan Qing, Chen Lin realized how he had overlooked this person. So many years had passed, and the other party's status as a traveling merchant might have already advanced. He should contact him to see if they could exchange for what they needed.

The veiled woman fell silent again.

After a while.

Then he took out another bottle.

open the lid.

Strange auras and dazzling light emanated from the area, radiating for over a hundred miles, and the souls of everyone inexplicably became active.

The veiled woman closed the lid again.

With a reluctant tone, he said, "This is Dream Sand, a strange object from ancient times. Its specific function is unknown, but it can make the soul more active and produce light. It is effective even for the Sovereign level, so it must be a high-level treasure."

Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat.

The other side actually has Dream Sand!

This is one of the six auxiliary items for soul release that Xiaohua mentioned.

Its function is to make the soul glow, increasing the chances of seeing the Soul Lock. As for its other effects, he knew nothing about them.

"Although it is a high-level treasure, its function is unknown, and no one dares to use it recklessly. If you want to exchange it, you can combine all three items and I can give you a rainbow flower in return."

Chen Lin did not show any enthusiasm and spoke in a calm tone.

"it is good."

The veiled woman readily agreed.

He then wrapped the three bottles in his magic and presented them to Chen Lin, who then took the box from him.

Chen Lin did not check.

After putting it away, he looked at Guo Tiezui.

"Master Guo, please wait a moment. I'll go back up the bridge and see if I can collect some more rainbow flowers."

After saying that, he leaped onto the bridge.

That person was quite hostile; if it really was him, we must deal with him as soon as possible.

An eternal self is a huge hidden danger.

on the bridge.

Chen Lin landed.

First, investigate in the direction of the Rainbow Sword.

After failing to spot the man, they began to fly rapidly in the opposite direction, but even after flying to the area of ​​abnormal fluctuations, they still couldn't see any trace of him.

"Gone?"

Chen Lin was somewhat puzzled.

Although the Rainbow Bridge was wide, it was still within his perception range. As long as he was on it, it was impossible for him not to sense it.

The rainbow sword is in the middle, and the opponent absolutely cannot pass through it.

There is only one reason.

The other party entered the area with abnormal energy ahead and entered an unknown interface.

I thought about it.

Chen Lin did not chase after them.

The interface that is connected ahead is uncertain; it could be another interface within the boundary river, or it could be an alien realm or the abyss.

Moreover, according to his deduction, this area, centered on the Rainbow Sword, should be in the direction of the outer space.

We must be cautious.

It cannot be ruled out that the young man was sent by someone to deliberately lure him into the alien realm. After all, he was a fish raised by the old fisherman of Tianhu Lake, and now that he had grown to a certain extent, it was time to harvest him.

We checked it once outside the abnormal range.

Another half hour passed.

Chen Lin activated his innate ability and performed a divination on the matter.

The result was vague, and there was no way to correct his fate. He shook his head and left the Rainbow Bridge.

He did not meet up with Guo Tiezui and others.

Fly under the bridge, through the area covered by the Rainbow Sword, and arrive at the other side of the bridge to continue collecting Rainbow Flowers.

This time, good luck didn't come.

After exploring for several days, they only obtained one rainbow flower, and instead encountered several inexplicable attacks along the way, putting themselves on the brink of life and death multiple times.

He didn't even discover the source of the danger.

Fortunately, he possesses various high-dimensional energies, especially the True Fire of the Sun and the talent of destiny, which can exert their normal power on the bridge, allowing him to receive early warnings and effectively defend himself.

Chen Lin did not continue exploring.

The situation here is far more dangerous than on the other side of Rainbow Sword.

Or perhaps the other side was also dangerous, but he was only a short distance from that unusual area, which prevented him from encountering other dangers.

This is not surprising.

As the most mysterious phenomenon within the boundary river, it would be abnormal if the Rainbow Bridge were completely without any danger.

I went back to look around the Rainbow Sword.

Chen Lin left the Rainbow Bridge.

He leaped and landed in front of Guo Tiezui and the others.

Looking around into the distance.

At this moment, more people appeared around, probably attracted by the fluctuations of the Rainbow Sword.

"How about it?"

Guo Tiezui asked telepathically.

He was an ancient being who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years, so he naturally knew Chen Lin's intention to go up the bridge. He even vaguely sensed the strange connection between the man in the three-colored robe and Chen Lin.

"The person is missing."

Chen Lin did not hide anything.

"What should we do then? Should we continue waiting, or leave first?"

Guo Tiezui transmitted his voice again.

At this time.

Others also spoke up, asking him if he had received another rainbow flower.

Chen Lin shook his head.

"The Rainbow Bridge must have limitations. Everyone's opportunities have a limit. We can only collect those from the center when the Rainbow Sword flies away on its own."

There was a pause.

He added, “I will return to Rainbow City first. You can take turns staying here to observe and keep an eye on the man in the three-colored robes for me. But try not to go up the bridge, as it is very dangerous. Once I get the Rainbow Flower, I will naturally distribute it to you.”

Wu Zhu and Hong Tingzhen expressed no objection.

As more and more ancient powerful beings are resurrected, their advantages have disappeared. To maintain their original status and position, they need to rely on Chen Lin, a powerful figure.

Then you must obey orders.

Guo Tiezui and the other eccentric individuals exchanged glances.

They agreed.

Although they had the Island of Strange People as a way out, they were all very eager for the Rainbow Flower, because refining the Rainbow Flower could eliminate the suppression of the Boundary River on cultivators, improve their life transformation level, and also help them advance to the level of a Dominator.

If there weren't such benefits, they wouldn't have risked their lives to come all the way from Qiren Island.

Rainbow City.

The first thing Chen Lin did upon returning to the city was to see Mingyue Shuanghua.

To his surprise, Mingyue Shuanghua actually left, taking Ziwei Palace with her, seemingly with no intention of returning.

City Lord's Mansion.

Jin Ruhua heard Chen Lin's question.

Nod slightly.

“I know about this. Palace Mistress Mingyue did leave just a few days ago. She said she was worried that the Purple Emperor would seek revenge on her, so she temporarily left Rainbow City. She will consider returning when she can stand up to the Purple Emperor.”

Chen Lin frowned.

Did she say where she went?

"No."

Jin Ruhua answered truthfully.

"The Purple Emperor has made a strong comeback this time, and she brought so many powerful people with her. How could she dare to reveal her whereabouts? The fact that she told me is already a great sign of her trust."

Chen Lin remained silent.

It sounded reasonable, but he had a feeling that the other person was avoiding him.

Could it be that the Myriad Porridge is truly the mastermind behind the influence of his divine star, and the real culprit is actually Mingyue Shuanghua?

What is the other party's purpose?
Chen Lin pondered for a long time but still couldn't make a conclusion, because he couldn't understand why Mingyue Shuanghua would harm him.

"What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

Seeing that Chen Lin remained silent for a long time, Jin Ruhua asked in confusion.

Chen Lin shook his head.

"It's nothing, just some things I need to verify with the other party. Since the person has already left, let's just forget about it."

The Void Realm is vast and boundless, and the Ziwei Palace is a supreme-level treasure. If it were to be hidden, it would be virtually impossible to find. Whether it was the other party's doing or not is no longer important; we can only think of other ways to solve the problem.

replied.

Chen Lin took out a rainbow flower.

He handed the flower to Jin Ruhua and said, "Take this flower and use it. It should be of some help in advancing to the Eternal Realm. I'm afraid I won't stay in the Seven Star Realm for long. You'd better advance before I leave."

Then he took out Yin-Yang Spirit Rice and some other high-grade spiritual items, and handed them over to the other party.

Jin Ruhua didn't stand on ceremony either.

After putting it away, he asked, "Who do you plan to take with you when you leave?"

"No one can take it."

Chen Lin sighed in reply.

"It's too dangerous outside, and the Star Ruins are full of high-dimensional beings. Without mastering high-dimensional energy, it's impossible to move an inch. You can't even see the beings there. Going out is tantamount to suicide."

"Is the difference really that big?" Jinru's expression shifted constantly.

Chen Lin smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just a difference in energy levels. It's like when cultivators from the inner world come to the outer world, they face just as much difficulty."

"Too."

Jinruhua nodded.

He sighed, “Cultivation is truly endless. It seems like you’ve climbed to the summit, but you find yourself standing at the bottom of an even higher peak. It seems like you can never finish climbing.”

"hehe."

Chen Lin smiled again.

"Isn't this the joy of cultivation? There is joy in pursuing higher peaks. Once you reach the highest point, it loses its meaning."

"You're quite open-minded."

Jin Ruhua did not continue the topic.

Looking at Chen Lin, he said, "I heard that the Purple Emperor is going to open the Prison Array. At that time, the Inner World will definitely undergo a great change, and casualties are inevitable. Do you have anyone you need to take care of? You can bring them out in advance. It will be a good opportunity to clear out those forces that avoid war and obtain a lot of treasures, which can remove the mark of the Inner World."

"No need."

Chen Lin refused.

“I already searched once before and brought out everyone I could. Those I couldn’t find, it just means it was their fate.”

"Then don't care."

Jin Ruhua said casually.

She had no intention of getting involved.

There is no Eternal Realm in the Inner World, so no matter how many people there are, they pose no threat to Rainbow City. What she needs to guard against are the ancient Eternals that are gradually reviving.

After exchanging words for a while, Chen Lin took his leave.

Back to the residence.

The first thing to do is check the black bracelet.

However, after many experiments, only the True Fire of the Sun could react with it; other energies were useless, and even the Soul-Destroying Finger didn't work.

It is even more impossible to leave a mark.

This made Chen Lin wonder if he had made a mistake in his assumptions.

This thing is not a living being; it's just that it's of a high level, which is why it can't be stored in the Jade Pendant.

"wrong."

Chen Lin denied himself.

The Jade Pendant of the Cave Heaven is a small secret realm. It appears to be an independent space, but it is actually connected to the interface it is in.

The reason why living beings need to be branded with their master's mark to enter is to prevent anyone from breaking through the spatial barrier and forcibly entering. Even the most advanced treasures cannot be brought in without being brought in.

Unless this bracelet contains an interface with extremely high levels of the laws of heaven and earth.

That's obviously impossible.

The bracelet has no spatial aura, so such a treasure could not possibly exist in the void realm, because the void realm would be unable to contain it.

"It's a bit troublesome!"

Chen Lin rubbed his temples.

It's definitely a treasure, but it's so frustrating to have it right in front of you and not be able to use it.

He pondered for a moment.

He picked up the treasure and entered the Nightmare Realm.

Within the fiefdom.

Chen Lin took out the token Yuan Qing had given him and attempted to summon it.

A figure flashed by.

Yuan Qing then appeared within the fiefdom.

He glanced around and said angrily, "This is a fiefdom, isn't it? You actually summoned me here. Do you think I'm your personal property?"

"How can it be."

Chen Lin smiled.

"There was really no suitable setting, so I summoned you here. But don't worry, the items I've brought out for the transaction will definitely not be a wasted trip."

He wasn't sure if the other person still had feelings for him.

Since it's the effect of food, it might not be permanent, so we should still follow the rules.

"Is it?"

Yuan Qing glanced at Chen Lin.

He said calmly, "I am now a high-level traveling merchant. I don't need ordinary treasures. If you can't satisfy me, you won't have the right to trade with me again."

"Easy to say."

Chen Lin responded readily.

Then take out a "muddled fruit" and hand it to the other person.

Yuan Qing's eyes lit up immediately after just one glance.

"The Confused Fruit?"

Chen Lin was taken aback.

He then revealed a look of delight and said, "You recognize this item? Has someone traded with you before?"

This fruit is something that can enhance higher-dimensional energy. The fact that the other party recognizes it means that they have information about this, and the traveling merchant's level should have already been raised.

He had previously worried that the other party's level was too low to access higher-level items, but now it seems he had underestimated them.

He is improving, and so is the other person; neither of them is slowing down, and each is making progress in their own way.

"Traveling merchants are not allowed to disclose transaction information."

Yuan Qing did not answer Chen Lin's question.

He turned the fruit around and asked, "The Confusion Fruit meets the trading requirements, so I won't pursue the matter of you summoning me randomly. Tell me, what do you want to exchange it for?"

"To exchange information about the great calamity in the Rainbow Realm in 131 AD."

Chen Lin tentatively inquired.

Yuan Qing extended his hand.

"My transaction fee has increased; it now requires one Colored Nightmare Coin per transaction. Please pay now."

"Oh?"

Chen Lin was greatly surprised.

The transaction fee requires one Colored Nightmare Coin, which is not something just anyone can do. No wonder they are so arrogant.

but.

He wasn't short of colored nightmare coins either, so he casually took one out and tossed it to the other person.

Yuan Qing put away the Nightmare Coins.

He frowned and pondered, "I don't know much about information outside the Nightmare Realm. There are too many interfaces corresponding to the Nightmare Realm, so it's not easy to collect information from the outside world."

"Then let's exchange for a secret technique that allows lower-level life forms to cultivate higher-dimensional techniques."

Chen Lin probed again.

"hehe."

Yuan Qing scoffed.

He glanced at Chen Lin and said, "You certainly have a wild imagination. You think you can exchange a mere Foolish Fruit for such a miraculous secret technique? Do you think I'm easy to deceive?"

"Do you possess such a secret technique?"

Chen Lin was rebuked, but he wasn't displeased; instead, he was somewhat pleasantly surprised.

"No."

Yuan Qing answered calmly.

Chen Lin was speechless for a moment.

"Why are you making such a fuss? I think your title of 'high-class traveling merchant' is just so-so."

He made a disdainful remark.

He took out the black bracelet.

He showed it to the other person and said, "Then help me see what this is."

Yuan Qing leaned closer to observe for a while.

Shake his head again.

"I can't tell. I can only confirm that it's a fire-attribute item, and it seems to have a life force. It's not a spirit, but just pure life force. It's very subtle and strange."

"It's really weird."

"strangeness."

Yuan Qinglai said three strange things to express her surprise and doubt.

Do you have any way to authenticate it, or do you know anyone who can authenticate it?

Chen Lin immediately pressed for more information.

The other party's account matched his speculation, confirming that it wasn't just posturing, but that they were no longer the ordinary traveling merchants they used to be.

"For identification."

Yuan Qing pondered for a moment and said, "I do know a very skilled appraiser, but a single 'Confused Fruit' is definitely not enough. Do you have anything else of value? Show it to me so I can check it. If it meets the requirements, I'll help you out because we're old acquaintances."

"Would the Five-Colored Nightmare Coins work?"

Chen Lin asked directly.

He had quite a few colorful nightmare coins on him, and he didn't feel bad about using them.

"No."

Yuan Qing immediately denied it.

"The person I'm talking about doesn't lack money, so having more Five-Colored Nightmare Coins is useless. Seven-Colored Nightmare Coins would be more appropriate."

Chen Lin's hopes were dashed.

He didn't have a single Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin, and didn't even know how to obtain them.

He quickly searched his mind for suitable items to trade.

Then he took out a bright green sphere.

"Take a look at this."

Chen Lin handed the ball over.

"what?"

Yuan Qing let out a sound of surprise.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "This is the eyeball of some kind of creature, isn't it? It contains a very strong, eerie aura, which has transcended the realm of lower dimensions. Where did you get it?"

"Is this news also part of the deal?"

Chen Lin countered with a question.

This item is a relic he left behind after killing the Azure Shadow King in the Feather Pen Scene. It is indeed of a higher dimension. The Feather Pen Scene is a special case, and the relevant information is extremely valuable. It cannot be given away for nothing.

Yuan Qing pursed his lips and continued to observe.

After a long pause, he said uncertainly, "I don't know if this item can impress that appraiser. I can try for you, but you only have one chance. Don't blame me if it doesn't work."

"of course."

"If you don't trust me, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Chen Lin was speechless.

They could only take out three more items.

Ten catties each of Yin-Yang Spirit Rice, ten baskets of Seven-Star Old Mother's Buns, and a portion of Soul Ash.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and took out another character card.

Give them to each other together.

He instructed, "This card is very rare, so try not to use it if you can avoid it. We can trade it separately."

"I understand. Wait for my message."

Yuan Qing packed up everything and disappeared into the fiefdom in a flash.
