I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2121 Cheating
After some questioning, Chen Lin gained some understanding of the current situation.

After the Rainbow Bridge collapsed, many collapsed spaces appeared in various places, which are void rifts. A strange beast emerged from these rifts, which was very difficult to deal with.

Apart from the monsters.

A strange energy also emanated from the crack, somewhat similar to the energy of the abyss, but much more troublesome.

The terrifying aspect of this energy is that it can attach itself to the normal primordial energy of heaven and earth, making it impossible for cultivators to cultivate normally. If this continues, the entire Rainbow Realm will become the end of the Dharma era.

Gradually.

It will also affect other interfaces.

The other party was someone from the Immortal Realm who came to check on the situation, worried that they might be affected.

Chen Lin felt that the "one, three, one, four great calamities" must refer to this. The changes are just beginning, and as the void rifts increase, the situation will become even more serious.

Do you know where the cultivators from Rainbow City have moved to?

Chen Lin continued to ask questions.

"Reporting to senior, we have only been here for a short time and have limited information. We have heard that we have been scattered and have gone to hidden realms, and some have gone to the Seven Realms."

The middle-aged man answered immediately.

Then, looking at Chen Lin, she tentatively asked, "Senior, did you come from the direction of Rainbow City? What's the situation there? Are there a large number of Void Beasts appearing?"

"No."

Chen Lin shook his head.

A wave.

He picked up the floating remnant of the monster in his hand; it was a wriggling 'tumor.' He focused his attention on sensing the energy fluctuations on it.

His expression immediately changed.

"Does the senior know this creature?"

The observant middle-aged man cautiously inquired.

Chen Lin did not answer.

Take out a jade box and put the tumor into it.

After putting it away, he said, "This kind of thing is beyond your ability to deal with. You should hurry back to the Immortal Realm."

Speaking of it.

Chen Lin casually asked, "Have you ever heard of the Kaiyuan Realm?"

"Of course I have."

The middle-aged man answered immediately.

"Kaiyuan Realm is the headquarters of Kaiyuan Sect, with super strong experts stationed there. Some time ago, people from Kaiyuan Sect even visited the Immortal King in the Immortal Realm."

Chen Lin was taken aback.

Did the Kaiyuan Sect send someone to visit the Upper Seven Realms?
That means they intend to move there. It seems that Wen Xinzhao did not complete the Nameless Grand Formation, so it is difficult to withstand the attacks of high-level monsters.

I'll have to go and help out.

"What is the cultivation level of the Immortal King in your Celestial Realm?"

Chen Lin asked again.

Transferring to the Immortal Realm is also a good option. The Upper Seven Realms are quite special, with strong boundary walls that even a Sovereign might not be able to forcibly break through.

No matter how strong or how high their energy level, those monsters could not become rulers.

However, internal strife must be taken into account.

Cultivator groups are never truly united. Even when facing external enemies, internal strife is inevitable, as it relates to the allocation of resources. If they want to relocate there, they need to understand the strength of the local powerful individuals.

"The Celestial King is an eternally perfect powerhouse!"

When the Immortal King was mentioned, the middle-aged man's eyes revealed an arrogant look, and the other four also straightened their backs.

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

Eternal perfection is already considered the pinnacle within the Boundary River.

The strongest being is the Sword Maiden, who merges with others and evolves into a ruler. However, such beings either submit to Yu Tianhu the Fisherman or can only cower in hiding.

suddenly
Chen Lin's expression shifted.

The appearance of this strange beast may or may not be related to the old fisherman of Hetianhu.

Perhaps the other side deliberately let them in, making it impossible for them to survive within the boundary river, thus forcing beings like the Star Emperor and the Sword Maiden out.

If that's the case, things could get very serious.

"What's your name?"

Chen Lin originally didn't intend to learn more, but since he wanted his family to go to the Immortal Realm, these people were still somewhat useful.

“Reporting to Your Excellency, I am Zhou Xianli, a second-class steward of the Immortal King’s Palace. If there is anything you need me to do, please let me know, and we will do our best.”

He then took out a jade talisman.

It was respectfully handed to Chen Lin.

"This is my communication jade talisman. It can be used as long as it doesn't cross interfaces. You can contact me anytime, sir."

"Thank you very much."

Chen Lin took the jade talisman into his hand.

He then casually asked, "Do you know who the sect leader of the Kaiyuan Sect is, and who the powerful figures in this sect are?"

Zhou Xianli looked suspicious.

However, he still answered respectfully, "The sect leader of Kaiyuan Sect is Chen Ling'er, the Grand Elder is Wen Xinzhao, a master of formations, and there is another elder named Xiaocao, who is a newly promoted Eternal Realm sword cultivator and is extremely powerful."

Chen Lin's eyes lit up.

Little Grass has successfully ascended to Eternity! This is great news.

He was happy inside, but his face remained expressionless.

He continued, "If the elders all have eternal cultivation, then wouldn't the sect leader have an even higher cultivation level? Also, is this sect leader a woman? I heard she's not very old. And who are her two powerful parents?"

Zhou Xianli immediately shook his head.

"This junior knows nothing about Sect Master Chen, and does not know the identities of his parents. I only know that he possesses high-level techniques and can even resist those at the Eternal Realm."

Chen Lin pondered for a moment.

He then asked, "Who is her master? Was it the previous sect leader?"

Done.

Stare into the other person's eyes.

Zhou Xianli's expression shifted, and he replied, "Speaking of the previous sect leader of Kaiyuan Sect, he was a mysterious figure. No one knew who he was or what he had done. It was as if all traces of him had been erased."

"Oh?"

Chen Lin feigned surprise.

"Is it really that amazing? There's not a trace left. Who says they don't remember him?"

"That's it."

Zhou Xianli nodded vigorously.

"The Immortal King made a deduction about this, saying that this person has either already advanced to the level of a ruler and erased his past, or he has been sealed by some kind of super treasure."

"Or be killed by a super strong person, severing all traces of them."

"The purpose of this is to prevent him from being resurrected."

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

His current situation is somewhat similar to that of Hong Tingzhen in the inner world back then, but the method of ferrying is even more mysterious, and it can even erase the memory of eternal perfection.

The power of rules is indeed strong.

But as the saying goes, there's always someone better, and life's journey can't be invincible either; the rules it sets can be broken.

The earthworm that swallows the sun is an exception.

If the ferry tries to kill him using this method, he can certainly be resurrected through the symbiotic secret technique.

Think of this.

Chen Lin suddenly had the idea to give it a try.

He waved his hand and said, "You guys go ahead and be careful. If you encounter any more monsters, there might not be anyone to rescue you."

"Thank you, sir. We will take our leave now."

Zhou Xianli and the others bowed respectfully, then flew away.

Chen Lin looked around, stepped into the void, and came out a thousand miles away.

He took out a wizard's flying carpet.

While sitting on it, he controlled the movement forward and focused his mind on imagining his life's treasure chest.

The white box immediately appeared.

then.

He attempted to condense the secret seal of formless symbiosis.

Suddenly I felt refreshed.

The secret seal, which was originally formed on the body, can now be formed on this body as well.

Chen Lin suddenly realized.

The one who was able to break the rules of the ferry was not the Sun-Swallowing Earthworm, or rather, it was not just the Sun-Swallowing Earthworm; the greater credit goes to this secret technique.

But he couldn't remember the origin of this secret technique.

It's highly likely that the person who taught him the secret technique also gained a second life; if so, that person was a passenger on the same ferry as him. Chen Lin thought of those alien races.

I don't know if they survived.

Get rid of distracting thoughts.

Chen Lin activated the faint secret seal and then focused his mind on sensing the treasure chest.

Although the secret seal was very weak in his body, the treasure chest was in his mind, and he could still sense the same secret seal fluctuations inside.

"father!"

In telepathy, I heard the joyful cry of the Earthworm that swallowed the sun.

Then the treasure chest trembled.

A ball of flame flew out from inside and transformed into an earthworm.

"father!"

The sun-swallowing earthworms danced joyfully.

Then, in another flash, it appeared on Chen Lin's wrist.

After examining the treasure chest and finding nothing wrong, Chen Lin withdrew his consciousness from his mind.

He immediately looked at his wrist.

They discovered that the Earthworm that swallowed the sun had transformed into the shape of a bracelet.

The other party seems to really like this form.

"How are you? Are you hurt?"

Chen Lin inquired with concern.

No need for verbal communication or telepathy; direct telepathic dialogue is sufficient.

Their telepathic connection was extremely strong, even stronger than their connection with the grass.

If they don't actively block each other, they can even sense each other's thoughts. This is why the other person calls him "Dad." This title comes from a previous life, and in this life, he is always called "Daddy."

"No injuries."

The Earthworm that Swallows the Sun answered immediately.

"It's very dark and oppressive inside. Also, last time my father's life force dissipated, which triggered the symbiotic seal, and I used up a lot of energy releasing my flame ability."

"It's good that it's not hurt."

Chen Lin felt relieved.

Then, out of curiosity, she asked, "Can you see what's inside that box? What does my body look like inside?"

The Earthworm that Devoured the Sun paused for a moment.

He described it as follows: "Normally I can't see anything, but last time when I released the flames, some of the darkness inside was dispelled, and I saw my father's body floating in the air. It was alive, but he couldn't wake up."

"So that's it."

Chen Lin smiled.

It's estimated that not many people with a second life would know this, so he's considered to have mastered the secret.

His smile vanished instantly.

He asked seriously, "Can you go back into the treasure chest? Can you take my body out of the treasure chest?"

"I don't know either, but we can give it a try."

The earthworm that swallowed the sun was eager to try.

Chen Lin hesitated.

He was thinking about what would happen if his true form were actually brought out.

Will the original body awaken, or will it remain primarily in its current form?

Or perhaps both exist?
But if both coexist, who will have the dominant consciousness? Could this lead to changes in the rules and unpredictable consequences?
"Try to see if you can go back first."

After pondering for a moment, Chen Lin gave instructions to the Sun-Devouring Earthworm, and then summoned the phantom of the treasure chest.

The Earthworm Devouring the Sun flashed.

It transformed into a ball of flame, entered the mind, and then disappeared back into the treasure chest.

Seeing this, Chen Lin felt hopeful.

If the other party can bring his body out without causing a backlash from the rules, then the problem that has been troubling him will be solved.

Even if I can't return my consciousness to my body, as long as I retrieve the Rainbow Sword and other important items, I can meet my current needs.

A thought came to my mind.

Chen Lin once again formed a secret seal and summoned the Sun-Devouring Earthworm.

“Dad, I tried it and it worked to move your body, but it takes a lot of energy. I can only do it once or twice at most.”

As soon as the Sun-Swallowing Earthworm emerged, it flew around the treasure chest, trying to curry favor with Chen Lin.

Chen Lin remained silent for a moment.

a long time.

He made up his mind and said, "Go and try it, but you must always be aware of the changes in my body and the symbiotic seal between us. If anything abnormal happens, stop immediately."

"As ordered!"

The Sun-Devouring Earthworm transformed into flames once more and entered the treasure chest.

Waited for a while.

Chen Lin activated the secret seal to summon the other party.

Then I felt a blur before my eyes, and my consciousness was completely pulled out of my mind.

Just when he thought the operation had failed and was about to summon the Sun-Devouring Earthworm to inquire about the situation, he suddenly froze.

The palm has changed.

It was no longer the large, golden fan it once was, but had turned white, and was now adorned with a storage ring used by cultivators, as well as a black bracelet formed from the Sun-Devouring Earthworm.

Chen Lin immediately stretched out his arm, looked at his body, and sensed the condition inside his body.

His eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Finally, he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha……"

The laughter echoed through the air for quite some time before finally stopping.

Chen Lin raised his hand and pointed.

A beam of black light shot out, then transformed into a claw, and a phantom of a giant black tiger roared out. Then, with a thought, flames raged across the sky.

Soul-Destroying Finger.

Black Tiger Gouges Out the Heart.

The sun is truly fiery.

He switched back to his original form!
Then Chen Lin glanced at his feet and saw that the flying carpet had disappeared.

This further proves that Yuan Shanyue's identity did not disappear, but was instead stored in a treasure chest.

Although the Sun-Swallowing Earthworm could bring him out, it could not change the rules of the ferry: the main body and the second identity could not appear outside the treasure chest at the same time.

In other words.

There must be a sealed item inside the treasure chest; if one comes out, another must go in.

This is a good thing.

Since he wanted to get rid of the old fisherman of Tianhu Lake by relying on his second identity, he couldn't let the two identities have any overlap. Ideally, he shouldn't even use a single pill in the same way.

As for the sun-swallowing earthworm...

If even the rules of life's journey can be broken, then surely the old fisherman of Tianhu Lake cannot anchor himself.

"How's it going? Are you okay?"

Chen Lin communicated with the Earthworm that swallowed the sun.

But there was no reply. The other party only conveyed a faint emotion. The energy consumption was too great, and it could not even transform. It was about to enter a dormant state.

To function again, it needs to be provided with sufficient energy.

Chen Lin calmed down.

It seems unrealistic to expect to switch identities at any time using this method. The Sun-Devouring Earthworm absorbs energy very slowly, but its demand is huge. Relying solely on its solar true fire source would take a very long time.

At least a century.

But it's enough.

Chen Lin knew he couldn't be greedy.

This situation is already good enough. He still has one free switching opportunity, which he can use when leaving the Seven Star Realm. By the time he needs to switch again, the Sun-Devouring Earthworm's energy will be almost full.

Thus.

He wouldn't need to use those 100 points.

Even if he never completes his life mission, he can still maintain it for a thousand years by deducting ten points every hundred years. At that time, it should be possible to determine whether he will need a second identity.

You don't need to worry about running out of points and having your identity removed along the way.

It's like having an extra escape route.

"Then you should rest first. Dad will find you some nourishing food to help you recover as soon as possible."

Chen Lin touched the bracelet and said.

With a flash, he disappeared into the void.
