I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

After Chen Lin drank the spiritual liquid, the two left the spot.

They arrived at a secluded place to discuss their next steps.

"With that god's perception ability, the killing of the tree spirit cannot be hidden. It will soon come back to us. With our current abilities, I'm afraid we are no match for it."

Chen Lin spoke in a deep voice.

The fact that a single divine messenger nearly wiped them both out, and that they only managed a narrow victory through a sneak attack, made him pessimistic about the possibility of killing a celestial being.

The other party previously said there was a 20% chance, but now, based on the estimate, it's probably less than 10%.

Hu San Niang sighed.

"It is indeed difficult, but it's too late for us to run now. The gods have all sorts of treasures. Once they confirm our identities, catching up with us will be a piece of cake. So, regardless of whether we can fight back or not, we have no choice but to give it a try."

There was a pause.

She looked at Chen Lin.

He probed, "You are capable of devouring divinity, aren't you?"

Chen Lin nodded.

"Third Sister is right. I can indeed devour divinity, but it's not that easy."

They're in the same boat now, so there's no need to hide these things. If they really succeed in killing the god, it will prevent the other party from competing with them for the divine radiance.

Hu San Niang's eyes lit up.

"You can devour divinity. No wonder the Heavenly God Palace wanted to exterminate your clan. However, I have seen the Crimson Ape Clan with the King-level bloodline before, but they did not seem to have such an ability. You can do it. Could you be the legendary Emperor-level bloodline?"

Chen Lin did not answer.

He himself didn't know his bloodline. He was pulled out of his mother's womb by a big bird and didn't see who gave birth to him.

Hu San Niang didn't press the matter further.

He continued, "Regardless of your bloodline, if you can devour divinity, you will definitely be able to break through the defenses of the gods. We just need to make good use of this and catch the gods off guard, and we will have a chance to kill them."

"What if they guessed that we could break through the divine defenses?"

Chen Lin carefully considered his words before speaking.

After all, with three divine messengers dying in succession, even the most obtuse god would have realized this.

Hu Sanniang paced back and forth a few steps.

He nodded and said, "That's possible, so we need to act as soon as possible and not give the other side a chance to find out. How is your recovery? If it's almost over, let's set off now."

Chen Lin did not move.

He glanced at the other person.

He tentatively asked, "You said you were 30% confident. What exactly are you relying on? If it's just the methods you just showed, I think we'd better not go and throw our lives away."

Hu San Niang hesitated for a moment.

He explained, "To be honest, I am a king-level bloodline of the Celestial Fox Clan. Possessing this clan's treasure allows me to temporarily break through my cultivation level and unleash the power of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox."

"but."

"This ability is extremely energy-consuming to use, requiring about six months of recovery time after each use, and it can only be used once at a time."

Chen Lin looked slightly surprised.

The opponent actually had such a hidden trick up their sleeve; no wonder they dared to hunt down the gods.

of course.

Even the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox is useless if it cannot break through the defense of divine radiance. Only a king-level being, or an ability like the Unyielding Heart that can restrain divinity, can pose a threat to the gods.

"Then give it a try."

Chen Lin made a decision.

Then they began to discuss the hunting plan.

Half an hour later.

Hu San Niang took out a pale silver leaf.

He handed it to Chen Lin and said, "These are the leaves of the Ten Thousand Year Silver Bell Flower. Wearing them can conceal our aura so that if we encounter a deity, they won't discover our abnormality."

"Thank you."

Chen Lin took the leaf.

He sensed it and found that the energy on the leaf was very strange, and it also had a faint fragrance. He couldn't be sure whether it had the effects the other party had mentioned.

But I still wore it.

Then he disguised his body, especially his appearance, making all sorts of changes to prevent the god from using unknown means to determine that he was the one who killed the god's messenger.

Hu San Niang also made adjustments.

However, this level of disguise can only fool strangers. Anyone familiar with the two of them can recognize them with a little attention.

Ready.

The two returned to the place where they had killed the tree spirit.

They planned to wait here for their prey to come to them.

The young celestial being only had three divine messengers, and now that they are all dead, it's impossible for them not to come and investigate in person. They simply don't have the capability to directly attack the enemy's base.

The valley was bustling with activity.

At this moment, a large number of demons have gathered here.

Previously, the Sun-Devouring Earthworm released the True Fire of the Sun, which caused such a great disturbance that half of the mountain was burned away. Not only the nearby monsters, but even those in the city could sense it.

"Hu San Niang, you still dare to show your face!"

Upon seeing Hu Sanniang and Chen Lin appear, a middle-aged man with a hooked nose immediately shouted angrily.

Chen Lin was speechless.

It seems the disguise was all for naught; I was recognized before I even got close.

Hu San Niang didn't pay any attention.

She glanced at the speaker and sneered, "Who do we have here? It's Eagle Six Rings. What, you want to avenge your brother? I'm afraid you don't have the guts!"

Ying Liuhuan's expression froze for a moment.

He then looked around and shouted, "This Hu Sanniang slaughtered elites of various tribes at the city gate, ignoring the rules of the city. Let's all work together to kill her, and if we report to the Heavenly God, he will surely remember our merit!"

"Humph!"

Hu San Niang snorted coldly.

"Stop trying to glorify your good-for-nothing brother. Elite? He's more like a bear. With his character, he even dared to try and steal my divine pill. I'd be letting him off easy by giving him a quick death."

"Hey Hey hey!"

A dark-skinned, burly man spoke in a deep, resonant voice.

“Hu San Niang, when you curse Eagle Boss, don’t drag our Bear Clan into it. We’re not cowards.”

Chen Lin almost burst out laughing.

But before he could even look at the other person, he saw a black light spit out from Hu San Niang's mouth, heading straight for the man named Ying Liu Huan.

The two were very close, and the sudden attack left Eagle Six Rings with no chance to react. The black light pierced through his brow, taking away all his life force.

A silence.

The demons, who had just been watching the spectacle with great interest, all fell silent, afraid of making a fuss and getting themselves into trouble.

"Ah."

Hu Sanniang chuckled.

Looking down at the crowd, he asked, "Is there anyone else who wants revenge?"

"no!"

The black bear demon standing at the front hurriedly spoke up.

Then he bowed and scraped, saying, "What you say is right, sir. We bears are cowards. We'll go back to our den now and never come out again."

After saying that, it was about to take off and fly away.

"Stand still and don't move, or you'll die."

As the indifferent voice rang out, a figure in white appeared from the void.

Chen Lin's heart tightened.

It was the young celestial being who arrived.

But the other party was not alone; a gaunt old man followed behind him, exuding a chilling aura.

The other side even has a divine messenger!
Despite being just a divine messenger, he was enough to bring the already unbalanced scales down, cutting off his and Hu Sanniang's chance to fight to the death.

Hu San Niang's eyelids twitched as well.

But he calmly moved aside, not even glancing at Chen Lin.

Chen Lin also lowered his head and looked down, just like the other demons, in a state of worship.

"Bone Four, go get checked out."

The young deity gave a calm instruction.

"Yes."

The gaunt old man agreed and flew to the top of the mountain.

Chen Lin stared at the other party and noticed that as it flew away, stark white bones were revealed beneath its robes. A thought struck him: it was a Netherworld creature.

This is actually an advantageous situation.

Although he is currently unable to use soul power and cannot use the Soul-Destroying Finger, he has prepared a very powerful treasure specifically designed to counter ghosts in order to resist soul-related abilities.

The gaunt old man circled the mountaintop.

Finally, they arrived at the place where Chen Lin had set up the ritual formation and began to examine it carefully.

“Master, there is an aura of ancient witchcraft here. It seems that someone has set up some kind of ritual formation here, and they have succeeded.”

The gaunt old man bowed respectfully to the young deity from afar, then described the findings of his examination.

"Oh?"

The young celestial being seemed to take an interest and flew down onto the broken peak.

I sensed it briefly.

Nodding, he said, "Indeed, someone used the ritual formation of an ancient shaman to check the area within a ten-mile radius, leaving no place unchecked."

"Yes!"

The gaunt old man agreed again.

But instead of acting immediately, he flicked his sleeve, and a dozen illusory little ghosts flew out, heading in different directions.

He then surveyed the surrounding area.

After a cup of tea.

All the little devils flew back.

The gaunt old man stood where the tree spirit's body had been destroyed, took out a crystal about the size of a fist, and kept chanting incantations.

As the incantation grew louder and louder, a hazy shadow slowly materialized.

Chen Lin's expression changed.

This ghost can actually summon spirits, and it summoned the remnant soul of the tree spirit!
He glanced at Hu Sanniang.

The other person was also looking at him, and their expression wasn't very good either.

But neither of them moved.

The young celestial being was still on the broken peak, quite far away. Their attack at this moment would not be able to catch the enemy off guard, and they had absolutely no chance of winning.

When they disposed of the tree spirit's corpse before, they also used a soul-destroying technique, so the other party might not be able to find anything out.

Just as Chen Lin had predicted.

The withered old man communicated with the remnant soul of the tree spirit for a long time but failed to obtain any useful information, so he could only disperse his soul.

They flew to the young god once more.

Bowed.

"Your Majesty, Shu Yi is dead. His soul has been destroyed, and no useful information has been obtained. Please use the method of tracing the source to find the murderer who killed Shu Yi."

"Ah."

The young god nodded.

It flew down from the broken peak, heading straight for the place where the tree spirit died.

"Do it!"

Just then, Chen Lin heard Hu San Niang's voice transmission.

Without hesitation, he leaped into the air, transforming into a golden light as he rushed towards the young celestial being.

At the same time, it inspires an indomitable spirit.

After his body swelled up dramatically, he unleashed a powerful punch!
"Be bold!"

The gaunt old man was stunned when he saw Chen Lin's actions. He seemed not to have expected anyone to dare to attack a god. After realizing what was happening, he immediately roared and charged at Chen Lin with swirling black energy.

Chen Lin did not pause for a moment.

He casually crushed a piece of cyan crystal, and countless beams of cyan light swept towards the withered old man before ignoring him.

With his right hand, his five fingers shaped like hooks, he plunged them directly into his own heart.

The left fist struck the young god directly.

"So it was you. You really are from the Crimson Ape Clan. I misjudged you. So, it seems my three divine messengers all died at your hands."

The young god spoke indifferently.

They completely disregarded Chen Lin's attack.

After the words fell.

He flicked his ring, and a snow-white short sword appeared out of thin air, thrusting straight at the fist's aura.

An invisible sword intent emanated from the short sword, bombarding Chen Lin's mental space, aiming to shatter his mental will.

Chen Lin paused.

He became unsteady on his feet.

But he immediately returned to normal, his momentum multiplied, and before the fist and flying sword clashed, he suddenly opened his palm.

The dark eyeballs opened.

It felt as if a gaze from the deepest hell was upon me.

At the same time, it released two beams of black light, one enveloping the young celestial being, and the other sweeping towards the withered old man.

Just as the gaunt old man had dispelled the blue light attack and was about to launch a pincer attack on Chen Lin from behind, he was suddenly enveloped in black light.

The black light seemed to be extremely restraining towards him; the black aura on his body was instantly suppressed, and his body trembled slightly, unable to escape the erosion of the black light for a moment.

The other side.

The young celestial being raised an eyebrow.

His face was ugly.

His invincible flying sword was actually blocked by a lowly demon. If his fellow disciples found out, they would laugh at him for who knows how long.

"rise!"

The young god spoke softly.

The short sword, which was blocked by the black light from the eyeball, immediately began to hum.

The sword instantly grew to several meters in length, and its sword intent surged, emitting a blinding light.

"cut!"

The young god's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his tone turned cold.

The giant sword crashed down.

The terrifying sword intent was like the creation of heaven and earth, sealing off all of Chen Lin's escape routes. The powerful pressure made all the living beings present tremble, unable to muster even the slightest will to resist.

"kill!"

Chen Lin roared to the sky.

With a forceful squeeze of his right hand, he actually crushed his own heart!

He knew that life or death hung in the balance and he had to break through the opponent's divine aura to create an opportunity for Hu San Niang to strike; otherwise, he would have no chance of survival.

We can only live by facing death.

As a powerful demon, even if its heart bursts, it will not die immediately. As long as Hu San Niang can complete the god-slaying act according to plan, it will be able to devour divinity and regain its vitality.

As a former expert of the Sword Sect, he also had a high resistance to sword intent, and the opponent's sword intent was not enough to dissipate his will.

The heart exploded.

The bloodline essence left behind by the Ape Ancestor was fully utilized.

Chen Lin's body swelled several times its original size once more.

Like an ancient giant ape, it stomped down on the young god as if stepping on an ant!
The young god's expression finally changed.

He flashed forward, about to teleport away and temporarily avoid the attack.

Although it was extremely humiliating to do this, saving one's life was the priority.

But at this moment.

Hu San Niang, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally made a move.

He opened his mouth and spat out the demon core, the black feathers on it burst open with a bang, the feathers turning into a rain of fine arrows that covered the young celestial being.

Although it did not cause any damage, it interrupted his teleportation.

Chen Lin's enormous foot then descended.

"court death!"

The young god was furious.

No longer attempting to dodge, nor paying attention to the flying sword, the pure white divine light emanating from his body condensed into a long blade, which he angrily slashed at Chen Lin.

A resolute glint flashed in Chen Lin's eyes.

"kill!"

With his last breath, he let out a roar.

Without any intention of dodging, he channeled all the power of his bloodline into the soles of his feet and slammed them hard into the blade! (End of Chapter)
