I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2244 Unexpected Item
Upon receiving He Erniang's message, Chen Lin immediately went to the palace.

Find the cloud pattern carving.

The carvings are located on the screen wall of the main hall, and can be seen in their entirety from the dragon throne.

Chen Lin sat down in front of the dragon throne.

He activated his Heavenly Eye to carefully observe the structure of the cloud patterns, but he couldn't discern anything.

then.

He concentrated his cloud-gazing mudra and applied it to his eyes.

The scenery suddenly changed.

There was no main hall, no one else, only white clouds before my eyes, changing shapes in different ways.

Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat.

So that's what 'watching the clouds' means.

He immediately held his breath and focused his mind on comprehending the meaning.

gradually.

Chen Lin seemed to sense something; every change in the clouds contained a certain artistic conception.

But I could never grasp the true meaning.

He immediately entered a state of childlike innocence, and after observing again, his feelings suddenly became stronger.

It felt as if all shackles had been removed, allowing me to roam freely between heaven and earth, and as if I could control everything, making all things in heaven and earth obey my commands.

This also includes these clouds.

"Gather!"

About half an hour later, Chen Lin spoke softly.

The entire hall trembled.

Immediately, the screen wall emitted a dazzling light, and a white cloud drifted out.

"melt!"

Chen Lin pushed the golden key forward.

The white clouds were immediately drawn to it and merged into the precious jade above.

The jade was covered with dense runes that intertwined and changed, and in the blink of an eye, they reassembled into the shape of an imperial seal, even turning golden in color.

Before Chen Lin could make further observations.

The jade seal detached from the waist key and floated in front of him, emitting a golden light that enveloped his body.

Chen Linhu's body trembled.

A sense of "those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish" arises.

"Under the whole heaven, all land belongs to the king; on the shores of the earth, all people are subjects of the king. Those who disobey his orders will be killed without mercy!"

All the golden light, following Chen Lin's majestic voice, transformed into a golden dragon, which circled three times before merging into his body.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, on gaining the approval of Heaven and Earth and ascending to the throne of the Human Emperor!"

He Erniang lay prostrate on the ground.

Everyone else also knelt down, shouting "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Chen Lin, however, felt nothing.

He knew his own situation. It wasn't him who received the proof from heaven and earth, but rather the cloud pattern. It was just that his natal rune was of a higher level, which suppressed the cloud pattern and made it work for him.

But none of that matters.

All he wanted was this identity, so he could leave the Divine Tower Dragon Formation.

"Be flat."

Chen Lin waved his hand.

He added, "Next, I will be going into seclusion, so I have decided to set up a cabinet of three people: Bai Qingshui, Zhao Meng, and Shen Changming. All matters will be discussed and decided by the three of them."

"Go back."

After dealing with the trivial matters, Chen Lin immediately found Feng Xue and entered the secret realm again.

Inside the giant tower.

The two figures became visible.

Feng Xue glanced at the jade that had transformed into the shape of a jade seal and clicked his tongue, saying, "You really are omnipotent. You obtained the imperial aura so quickly. Perhaps you can truly change this world and bring light back to humanity."

"Hopefully."

Chen Lin put the key away.

Without lingering inside the tower, they went straight outside and flew towards the direction of the light.

Flying for a while.

etc.

His expression shifted.

With the power of the Imperial Seal, he finally sensed the existence of the array and could even perceive the direction of the array patterns.

"catch me!"

Say hello.

Holding Feng Xue's hand, Chen Lin followed the changing nodes of the Divine Tower Dragon Formation, constantly altering their position, and soon arrived at the edge.

This time, it was not affected by the formation.

I felt a sudden lightness in my body and then I was out of the array's range.

Before he could even feel happy, he realized that Bai Xue hadn't followed. Although the two were holding hands, they seemed to be restricted by the formation and unable to break through the barrier.

Besides.

Chen Lin also felt an unbearable heat, and even with the protection of nine layers of armor, he felt as if he were about to burst into flames, and he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

I observed for a while.

He retreated back into the array's range, and the strange phenomenon immediately disappeared.

Return to the tower gate.

Seeing that Feng Xue was in a daze, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "What happened? Was Lord Feng blocked by the formation, or was his mind affected and he separated from me on his own?"

The wind and snow shook their heads.

"This formation is too mysterious. I don't even know what happened before I returned here. It seems that only those with the royal aura of the Lingyun Kingdom can leave. Even if others come together, it won't work."

Chen Lin remained silent for a moment.

Then he asked, "Does Lord Feng intend to stay here and wait for me, or return to Yuming City first? But rest assured, whatever treasure I obtain, I will share it with you."

"Go back first, be careful."

Feng Xue wasn't interested in the Xi Stone anyway; he was more interested in the books. Besides, there might be some danger here, so it was best to leave first.

Chen Lin did not try to persuade him.

Return to the top of the tower, unlock the door, and let the other person return to Yuming City.

He didn't rush to leave the formation again, but stood on the peak gazing into the distance, as if waiting for something.

Two hours later.

The light began to fade, and a rainbow began to appear.

Chen Lin took to the air.

Unfurling its soul wings, it flew towards the glowing light like a great bird.

Just as he expected.

After the light dimmed, the bone-chilling heat also weakened considerably, and the nine-layered armor could easily withstand it, preventing him from being burned to ashes.

But even so.

As he drew closer, the heat continued to rise, forcing him to slow down.

suddenly.

Chen Lin paused.

He showed a look of surprise and uncertainty.

In the distance, where the light was shining, there was an enormous black shadow that looked like a huge, continuous mountain range, and the source of the light was at one end of the mountain range.

At the other end of the mountain range, a rainbow appears.

An indescribable aura emanated from the mountain range, growing stronger the closer one got.

Affected by this aura, the effect of his Ninefold Armor weakened rapidly, causing the burning sensation to intensify again. Fortunately, the light continued to dim, which allowed him to barely withstand it.

Also.

Chen Lin also discovered something else.

The mountain range only appears under the Heavenly Eye; if the Heavenly Eye is closed, the entire mountain range will disappear.

This indicates that the mountain range is of a very high level, even exceeding the limit of the ferry's rules. It requires divine intervention to compensate for this; otherwise, as someone experiencing life, he would not have encountered this situation.

Chen Lin did not go any further.

Instead, they slowly retreated, intending to observe from a distance to ensure their own safety.

But at this moment.

His soul suddenly trembled, and points of light lit up one by one.

Immediately afterwards, a flame rose up.

Chen Lin frowned upon seeing this.

Inner planet. The true fire of the sun.

These two things actually activated on their own.

Logically, since he is currently in a 'possessed' state, his inner star should not be able to manifest. However, it is manifesting now, which indicates that the rules of the life ferry have been weakened.

I don’t know whether it is good or bad.

For the time being, this is a good sign.

After the True Fire of the Sun appeared, it seemed to change, forming a faint connection with the luminous body. This allowed it to no longer be affected by the scorching heat, but instead to absorb higher-level flame power, thus increasing the purity of the True Fire of the Sun.

and also.

The inner star also had a vague connection with the Rainbow Bridge, but Chen Lin himself couldn't be sure what the specific connection was.

He became hesitant.

Unable to decide whether to continue exploring or retreat.

And there are some concerns.

Chen Lin always believed that the Seven Stars Sun Technique was created to obtain the Rainbow Sword. After he obtained the Rainbow Sword and successfully rescued Niu Niu, the technique had fulfilled its mission.

Although the inner star corresponds to the seven laws, its level is too low, and the only thing that can still be used is the true fire of the sun.

But this is the situation now.

This made him suspect that this technique was not as simple as it seemed.

Chen Lin looked at the rainbow in the sky, then at the mountains and the glowing spot.

ponder for a moment.

They neither approached further nor retreated immediately.

Instead, they changed positions around the mountain range, intending to observe it from a distance first before deciding what to do.

At this moment, Chen Lin missed the red-haired rat terribly.

The other party is very knowledgeable; if they were here, they would definitely be able to offer useful suggestions.

He decides.

Once the forces within the city are merged and unified, we will send more people to search vigorously and make sure to find the other party.

While I was pondering this.

Chen Lin, who was flying, suddenly stopped.

Then change positions back and forth, constantly adjusting the angle to observe.

Finally, it stopped somewhere.

He reached into his belt and took out a thick book, flipping directly to the last page.

Place it in front of you and compare it with the mountains.

His eyes gradually brightened.

"It really is this!"

Chen Lin seemed unable to believe it.

So they changed their location again and checked it back and forth more than ten times before finally determining the correct position.

His eyes are bright and sharp.

The shape of this mountain range is exactly the same as the mushroom-shaped spiritual plant on the back of an old ox recorded in the spiritual plant encyclopedia, and that rainbow is the tail part of the spiritual plant!
Chen Lin swallowed.

According to the Spirit Plant Encyclopedia, this mushroom is a level seven spirit plant, surpassing even the Long-Loving Vine!
The Long-Loving Vine is already at the high-level Dominator level, so what level will this mushroom reach? Could it be a true primordial entity?
Although I was very excited.

But Chen Lin quickly calmed down.

It's still impossible to determine whether what we're seeing is actually an old cow carrying a mushroom. Just because it looks like one doesn't mean anything; it could just be a coincidence.

Even if it's true.

Even with his current abilities, it would be difficult for him to harvest a level seven spiritual plant.

They stood there for a while.

Chen Lin continued to move forward to observe the situation more closely.

There are two main things to clarify.

One question is whether the rainbow and the mountain range are one, or whether it is just a projection of light onto the mountain. If it is just a projection, then it is a coincidence and not the level seven spiritual plant he thought it was.

Another one is a luminescent body.

He went through all sorts of trouble to get in, not for the spiritual plant, but for the Dawn Stone in Sunset Lake.

No matter what level of treasure it is, it must give way to life's mission. If the mission is not completed, no matter how many or how good the treasures are, it will be in vain.

Priorities should not be reversed.

As the distance closed, Chen Lin could vaguely see the entire mountain range. Indeed, just like the mushroom on the back of an old ox, the end of the rainbow was also one end of the mountain range.

The mountains here look like a cow's rump, and the rainbow is right on top of the rump.

Like a tail.

Besides.

The front of the mountain range also resembles a bull's head, with two sloping peaks that are about 80% similar to bull horns.

This is nothing.

What excited Chen Lin was that there was a golden lake between the two 'bull horns', and the source of the secret realm's light came from there.

It is round, like the sun.

Sunset Lake!
Chen Lin immediately thought of this name.

Rainbow Continent, Sunset Lake—that matches up now. The luminous object in the lake is undoubtedly the Dawn Stone.

He took a deep breath.

This is truly a stroke of luck; nothing can stop it. Not only has the mission shown a glimmer of hope, but it has also come with a level seven spiritual plant as a bonus. I wonder if it's genuine luck or if a powerful figure behind the scenes has been manipulating things all along.

"Let it be whatever you want it to be."

Chen Lin muttered something to himself.

Regardless of whether the figure of great power exists or not, the mission must be completed; we can deal with the aftermath later.

Think of this.

He spread his body and flew towards the lake.

But after flying for a distance, it stopped again, its whole body turning red from the inside out, and flames bursting out.

Touching his charred head, Chen Lin's expression shifted several times, but he still retreated unwillingly.

Even with the Inner Star and the True Fire of the Sun, it was still impossible to resolve the erosion of that scorching aura. Both were of a lower level, and the energy emitted by the Xi Stone was not in the same dimension.

That’s not the whole story.

The main reason is this level seven spiritual plant.

The aura emitted by this item can weaken the power of the Ninefold Armor; otherwise, with the level of the natal runes, resisting the Dawn Stone would not be a big problem.

and so.

To take the Dawn Stone, you must first take this spiritual plant.

After trying several different directions, Chen Lin was unable to get close to the lake and had to leave temporarily.

The plant encyclopedia records the method for obtaining this plant, and he has already collected quite a few auxiliary materials, only lacking two or three types, so it is not impossible to obtain it.

"Bah!"

Just as Chen Lin unfolded his soul wings, intending to explore other places, a crisp, angry shout rang out.

Then a flash of red light appeared.

A boy dressed in bright red clothes with two pigtails appeared out of thin air, holding a red-tasseled spear with the tip pointing at Chen Lin's brow.

"You audacious madman, you think you can just come and go as you please from this Flaming Mountain!"

The boy shook his red-tasseled spear.

Without giving Chen Lin a chance to explain, he thrust out with his spear.

Chen Lin felt a chill run down his spine. The opponent's shot seemed unhurried, but it gave him the feeling that he couldn't dodge it no matter what. He could only watch helplessly as the spear tip enlarged and struck the nine-layered armor.

"boom!"

The two intersect.

The red tassel on the opponent's spear flickered and instantly transformed into a fire dragon that swallowed Chen Lin whole.

It burst into flames.

"Hahaha!"

The boy, seeing this, put his hands on his hips and laughed.

Then he curled his lip and said, "Where did this little bug come from? I thought it was something special, but it's just a showy empty shell. It's boring!"

After saying that, he put away his gun and prepared to go back.

But he immediately noticed that the flames on Chen Lin's body suddenly flickered and then slowly went out, while the target he thought would be burned to ashes showed no signs of injury.

"Take a move from me too!"

Chen Lin's gloomy voice rang out.

Then a flash of blue light appeared.

A blue rose appeared above the boy's head, followed by more than a dozen eerie lights and various other lights, sweeping towards the boy like a storm.

Chen Lin transformed into a streak of light and shot towards the giant tower.
