I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

The fact that the quill pen could not break through the protective array of Peach Blossom Sea made Chen Lin's face very ugly.

This way.

He could only switch to the Red Ape identity.

This would not only waste a piece of iridescent crystal, but it would also attract attention. There are several super strong individuals in the city, and the sudden appearance of a high-dimensional life form would not go unnoticed.

Also.

The matter on Dahuangxing was not a secret. Many people saw Qu Zixian and others from Tianshen Palace enter the valley. He was acting under the identity of the Red Ape. As long as the forces behind Qu Zixian and others investigated the situation, it would be easy to locate him.

Furthermore, the Red Ape has no means of concealing its identity.

It's accurate every time you find it.

Besides.

Fu Tianduo comes from Four Seasons Manor, and Peach Blossom Fairy belongs to Eight Trees. They are both people from the Star Ruins faction, and they may have also received news about the Great Yellow Star.

Once exposed, he would have no choice but to fight to the death.

With two slave seal masters and two eternal powerhouses from major star-ruled forces, there is no hope of victory.

"Tiezhu, you give it a try."

Chen Lin had a heart-to-heart talk with Tie Zhu.

"okay!"

Tiezhu immediately sprang up, his body growing to over a foot long, and wrapped the quill pen around it.

Then flames burst forth.

"Be careful not to burn the feathers!"

Chen Lin hurriedly reminded him.

He still has a use for this quill pen, so it can't be destroyed.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. How could the protagonist be so stupid?"

Tie Zhu replied, and continued to increase the firepower.

After a few breaths, Chen Lin felt a crack open in the invisible barrier, establishing a connection with the Nightmare Realm.

But they still couldn't be brought in.

Chen Lin was overjoyed.

This isn't due to the protective array, but rather because too many people need to enter, or because his own level has increased and one merit coin isn't enough.

He was prepared.

He immediately took out all the merit coins and filled them in one by one, while separating his true soul body to prevent any accidents after entering the scene.

When you use the third Life Coin, the connection to the Nightmare Realm suddenly increases.

The quill pen also started to shake.

With swift, flowing strokes, he sketched a gate of light.

Seeing the familiar scene, Chen Lin did not hesitate at all and led the two women into the portal.

In the peach grove.

A graceful figure strolled through the woods, her hand gently caressing the peach blossoms beside her.

A man in white followed behind him.

It was Mo Ziqi.

The graceful figure stopped in her tracks and said softly, "It seems that my Peach Blossom Formation still has weaknesses. It was broken through so easily. I need to strengthen it further."

"If we strengthen our efforts now, will he be unable to return?"

Mo Ziqi responded immediately.

The graceful figure smiled.

“Strengthening the Peach Blossom Formation is not so easy. Don’t even think about it if it takes more than a thousand years. If he can’t come back after that long, he will never have a chance to come back.”

"That's what my lord said."

Mo Ziqi didn't say anything more.

Her graceful figure turned around, but instead of looking at Mo Ziqi, she gazed in the direction where Chen Lin had disappeared.

He tilted his head and said, "This person is truly extraordinary, capable of making my top-grade peach spirit defy the rules and willingly choose him as its master. Did he really come from within the Boundary River?"

"Indeed."

Mo Ziqi bowed.

He added, "This person is very famous in the Boundary River. He was born in the prison array created by the Purple Emperor. He rose through the ranks, from the lowest level of the realm, and in a few thousand years, he reached the Eternal Realm, which is even more exaggerated than the Purple Emperor."

"But this person is not ostentatious."

Mo Ziqi continued speaking.

"This person is excessively low-key in his conduct and work, and has never been well-known. It was only when the Rainbow Bridge appeared later that he showed his ruthless methods in order to compete for the Rainbow Flower and Rainbow Sword."

"Then it disappeared."

"When it reappeared, it was in the outer space, its strength had soared, and it had mastered high-dimensional energy. It is estimated that it wanted to go to the Star Ruins."

The graceful woman shook her head.

"Leaving Star Ruins is not easy."

"The other party's soul is special, it must be a Gu raised by the Fisherman of Heavenly Lake. With the Fisherman of Heavenly Lake's cunning, it is impossible that he did not leave any tricks on the other party. Unless the other party uses special means or has the help of a second-level or higher ruler, there is no hope of leaving."

Mo Ziqi was stunned.

He asked in confusion, "Then why did the lord help him?"

The graceful woman smiled again.

"It was just a matter of convenience, and those slave-catching guys are really annoying. They actually dared to arrest people on my turf. This is not an insult to me, but a test of my Eight Trees' attitude."

She sighed as she said this.

He said softly, "My Eight Trees are now in decline, and countless forces are eyeing them. They even want a share of the resources in this lower-dimensional realm. I wonder if the Ancestor will be able to break through this time."

"correct."

The graceful woman suppressed her gloomy mood.

Looking at Mo Ziqi, he asked, "Have you found out what I asked you to investigate? Has Miss He given us any reply?"

"They did return, but Miss He said she didn't know the specifics either. However, it seems that Fu Tianduo and the others came not to capture the stowaways in the Boundary River, but to find someone who escaped from Xingxu."

"People from Xingxu?"

The graceful woman was somewhat surprised.

"I thought they were going to capture Chen Lin, but why would the people from Star Ruins come to the Seven Star Realm when they're escaping? There's the Heavenly Lake Fisherman's surveillance treasure here; aren't they just walking into a trap..."

Inside the quill pen scene.

After the three figures appeared, Chen Lin immediately looked around.

The landing point was still on that street, and the surroundings were very dark, but a few shops were open, so it seemed that it had not been completely covered by the light disaster.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the city still exists, one can enter the Ferry of Life space, ensuring that there is at least a chance to complete the mission.

"How are you two? Can you see me?"

Chen Lin used his true soul to question Lin Xinyi and the other person.

His soul is at level four or above, and within this higher-dimensional interface, it can also produce an 'invisibility effect' against lower-dimensional beings.

"Can't see."

They both shook their heads at the same time.

But there was no excessive panic.

Before entering, Chen Lin had already explained the situation here, explaining that it was due to the difference in life levels.

At this time.

Xu Wuye added, "Although I can't see it, I can sense some things through the Juling Clan's talent, but it's not very clear."

Chen Lin nodded slightly.

The true level of the Bell Gathering Beast is definitely not low, so it's not surprising that the other party can sense some energy fluctuations, just like when he first came in, he could also sense some things with his soul.

If the opponent's bloodline is fully activated, it might transform into a level four life form.

But mobility is still limited.

Chen Lin immediately checked the treasures in the cave and the storage ring on his hand.

I found that they can all be opened.

This made his expression even more relaxed.

It seems there have been no other changes here; everything is still the same as before. All items can be used, and supernatural powers and spells can be cast, but since they don't reach higher dimensions, they won't have any power. "You two, don't resist."

After giving him a heads-up, Chen Lin took the two women into the Fruit Core Cave. Then he heard the fruit core making a cracking sound, as if it was about to split open.

This startled him.

They hurriedly checked and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there were no real cracks.

One treasure of a grotto-heaven is not a big deal, since he still has the jade pendant to use, but this treasure contains hundreds of spirit fruit trees. If it is destroyed due to the collapse of the space, he would be devastated.

Inspection complete.

Chen Lin immediately used his divine sense to notify the two women not to use their extraordinary powers inside, so as to avoid further damage to the space.

Then he examined the Jade Pendant from the Cave Heaven.

The space here is much more stable than the fruit pit, and there is no suppression. The old tortoise, Tian Shu, and Hong Chen are all sitting quietly and cultivating by the pool.

"Owner!"

Sensing Chen Lin's soul aura, the three of them stood up at the same time.

Chen Lin had a sudden thought.

First, he released Tian Shu, and seeing that the jade pendant hadn't changed, he then released Hong Chen.

"Can either of you see the people over there?"

Chen Lin pointed in the direction of the shop, and two figures appeared there, walking quickly toward them.

"can see."

They both answered at the same time.

Chen Lin looked at Hongchen in surprise.

It's not surprising that Tian Shu could see him. The other party's form of existence is special; he has evolved into a higher-dimensional life form, and he even gave the other party a little bit of the origin of the Heavenly Eye.

But Hongchen is just a peach spirit in the Peach Sea, yet she can still see the creatures here.

It was really unexpected.

The Seven Star Realm is currently only a low-dimensional space, and the spiritual plants growing there should not be able to become level four life forms unless Fairy Peach Blossom uses special methods.

"The Peach Sea is a high-level treasure. It grows peach trees by absorbing the energy of the Seven Stars. As the highest level, I am comparable to an innate spiritual body."

Hongchen sensed Chen Lin's suspicion and immediately offered an explanation.

"I see."

Chen Lin was pleasantly surprised.

Unexpectedly, this Peach Spirit is a high-dimensional being. If we can confirm its loyalty, we should nurture it properly, as it may become a great help to him in the future.

Think of this.

He immediately began a telepathic exchange with Tie Zhu.

"You think she wasn't lying."

Tie Zhu immediately replied, "I didn't sense any particular fluctuation in those words, so they should be true. However, I can only rely on my senses to investigate, which may not be accurate. If Dad is worried, he can use a soul-searching spell."

"No need."

Chen Lin rejected the proposal.

He explained, "Soul-searching spells deal massive damage. Once used, they will definitely affect the opponent's growth potential and are likely to incur resentment. Moreover, as a level four being, the soul-searching effect may not be reliable. It's better to exchange sincerity for sincerity."

"My father is kind and righteous!"

Tie Zhu immediately began to flatter him.

Chen Lin ignored the other party, and just then, the figure in the distance approached, so he turned his attention to it.

"Who are you people, and where did you come from!"

Both figures were dressed in cloaks, the standard attire of a master, and their tone was quite unfriendly.

"My name is Chen Lin, and I am Yan Li's friend."

Chen Lin answered immediately.

He then asked, "Is he currently at the City Lord's Mansion?"

"A friend of the city lord?"

One of the figures glanced at Chen Lin, then looked at Hong Chen and Tian Shu, and gave a signal to his companion, who immediately flew away.

Simultaneously.

Several more magistrates gathered around, forming a circle that subtly surrounded Chen Lin and his two companions.

Chen Lin didn't mind and waited patiently.

As long as Yanli is still alive, there will be no problem. Moreover, he can also feel that the True Sun Fire he left in the city is still burning, which means that nothing major has happened in the city.

After a dozen breaths.

A streak of light shot over.

Yan Li's figure landed in front of Chen Lin, and after sensing it for a moment, she immediately smiled.

"It really is Brother Chen. So many years have passed, yet Brother Chen's energy and spirit have become even more abundant, and his cultivation seems to have improved considerably. This is truly a cause for celebration."

"Haha."

Chen Lin laughed heartily.

He also sized up the other person.

His smile vanished instantly.

He frowned and said, "Brother Yan, why is your condition so bad? Could it be that there's been a problem with your cultivation?"

The other party appears to be full of vitality, but in reality, their life force is waning, their aura is unstable, and they seem to have little life left.

Yanli glanced around.

He chuckled and said, "It's nothing serious, just some minor injuries I sustained earlier, but I've almost fully recovered. It's been so many years, and I've missed Brother Chen terribly. Let's not stand here any longer, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion first."

Chen Lin nodded.

With Tian Shu and Hong Chen by their side, they arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion and immediately saw the flickering True Sun Fire.

At this moment, the flames were placed on an altar, surrounded by crystals that emitted a scorching heat, and several priests sat around them.

"Thanks to the flames left behind by Brother Chen back then, otherwise the city of Deluo would have long been annihilated in darkness."

Yanli said something.

Then they invited Chen Lin into the mansion.

He ordered his men, "Guard the gates. No one is allowed to enter the mansion without my permission. Anyone who tries to force their way in will be killed without mercy!"

Chen Lin glanced at the other person.

It seems that the city lord is not having a good time and doesn't have a strong grasp of power.

"Brother Chen, have you come here today to take on a life mission?"

After taking her seat, Yanli had her subordinates serve her spiritual tea, and then asked a question.

Chen Lin took a sip of tea.

He smiled and said, "We beings from the outside world must complete our life's mission before we can leave. Brother Yan should know this."

Then the conversation shifted.

He added, "However, I'm not in a hurry this time. I want to explore this world first and see if I can find anything useful. Do you have any information to provide, Brother Yan?"

To Chen Lin's surprise.

Upon hearing his words, Yanli shook her head.

"Brother Chen may not know this, but the light disaster in this world is extremely severe now, much more severe than when you left last time. Places that can remain normal are very rare. The masters in various places are fighting tooth and nail for survival resources, making it very difficult to collect resources."

"Oh?"

Chen Lin raised an eyebrow.

Then he asked, "Brother Yan, have you made contact with the family these past few years? I've noticed that the development of Dero City is not very good. Could it be that you haven't received any support from the family?"

Yanli looked embarrassed.

He said shyly, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Brother Chen. Actually, I contacted my family a long time ago, but some things happened there. Instead of getting help, I attracted covetous people. If it weren't for the fact that only I can control the flames you left behind, Brother Chen, I'm afraid the position of city lord would have changed hands long ago."

Chen Lin understood.

This situation is not uncommon, and he is already used to it.

Because cultivators have long lifespans and aspirations for immortality, their competition for resources has always been ruthless.

However, the opponent seized the initiative, and the True Fire of the Sun he left behind suppressed the Light Disaster. Even after so many years, he still hasn't been able to fully control it, which shows that his ability is only average.

This disappointed him somewhat. (End of Chapter)
