I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Chapter 2250 Breaking the Formation
Upon hearing the red-haired rat's explanation, Chen Lin suddenly understood.

No wonder it attracted so many powerful figures to fight over it; it turns out it involved primordial treasures. But that has nothing to do with him. He is only at the Eternal Realm now, far from being a Sovereign. Even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to use it.

On the contrary, it is easy to get into trouble.

So I stopped thinking about it.

He then transmitted his voice again, saying, "I must get my hands on the Dawn Stone. Even if I can't get it, I can't let it fall into the hands of the Dark Faction. If you can help me, I can tell you a way to recruit the ox."

"What method? Is it a treasure?"

The red-haired mouse's eyes lit up.

"It's not a treasure, it's a method, and there are also auxiliary materials."

Chen Lin answered quickly.

Over the years, he has collected items such as Qitianhe Grass and refined the spiritual liquid described in the Spiritual Plant Compendium.

But now the situation has changed, and he has decided to focus all his energy on the Dawn Stone in order to complete his life mission, so the Spirit Liquid is no longer useful.

"Tell me."

The red-haired rat sprayed a burst of red light at the coiled dragon pillar below, and then continued to communicate with Chen Lin telepathically.

Chen Lin then recited the information from the Spirit Plant Encyclopedia.

"To collect this item, you need to sprinkle a special spiritual liquid on the ox so that it cannot resist. Then, grab the rainbow tail on top and wrap it around the torso. That way, you can successfully collect it."

"However, this is only recorded in ancient texts."

"Whether it will work or not, I haven't tried it and can't guarantee it."

The red-haired rat's eyes grew brighter.

"The information should be correct."

"The legendary way to subdue the ox is to wrap its tail around its body, but it requires great strength to suppress it. I have no confidence at all; I just want to join in the fun."

"But with the elixir you mentioned, there might actually be a chance."

It rubbed its paws together.

"Give me the spirit liquid. I'll take care of the Dawn Stone issue for you!"

Chen Lin took out a very large bottle.

"This is the elixir; it needs to be sprinkled on the head of the ox. Don't waste it."

There was a pause.

He added, "There's one more thing."

"what?"

The red-haired mouse took the bottle, opened it to examine it, and asked questions.

Chen Lin glanced at the source of the light.

He said in a deep voice, "To be honest, I was able to leave this formation and had already come into contact with the spiritual plant, but there was a powerful spirit guarding it, so I was unable to collect it successfully."

"You've been there?"

The red-haired mouse was stunned.

His beard twitched, and he said speechlessly, "You're really cunning, kid. But you actually managed to withstand Wen Ruyu's mental shock and didn't tell the truth. You're quite capable."

A psychological shock?

Chen Lin recalled for a moment.

The other person was probably referring to the strange pressure he felt when Wen Ruyu asked him questions, but because of his natal rune, he wasn't greatly affected.

No wonder the other party believed his answer; he didn't use methods like soul searching to verify it.

It turns out he had confidence.

Chen Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was an unintentional outcome. If he had known Wen Ruyu's methods beforehand, he might not have been able to remain so composed, and his true intentions would have been noticed.

Now words.

He pretended to know nothing, hoping to reap the benefits and successfully obtain the Dawn Stone.

"Does Your Excellency know a way to reignite the Dawn Stone?"

Chen Lin composed himself and asked.

"I have heard of a few methods, but I can't guarantee whether they will work."

"How many?"

This answer delighted Chen Lin.

Before he could ask any more questions, the red-haired rat waved its paw.

"There's no rush. You can't do it even if I tell you now. First, tell me the details of that spirit, what powerful abilities it has?"

The voice just fell.

At this time.

The dragon-shaped pillar below suddenly began to hum loudly.

Nine golden dragons detached from the pillar and circled around it, creating a spectacular scene.

"Hurry, hurry, don't waste time!"

Saw this scene.

Red-haired Rat immediately urged Chen Lin.

Chen Lin didn't dare to delay and quickly explained the situation of the boy in red.

Then he retreated rapidly.

It flew directly to the side of the wind and snow.

A wave of his hand.

Countless runes appeared, covering the entire mountaintop and forming a defensive domain.

See this.

Even the wind and snow brought out snow-white flowers.

Petals flew out one by one, seemingly endless, enveloping the entire mountain in white snow.

"Prepare!"

The moment the two finished, Wen Ruyu's high-pitched voice echoed through the mountains.

With his voice.

The tower radiated dazzling light, each level a different color, and huge, mysterious runes appeared, constantly moving across its surface.

"ban!!"

Wen Ruyu shouted loudly.

His entire body became as white as jade, like a flawless piece of porcelain, even his hair and eyeballs were no exception, and as his body changed, his aura became terrifyingly powerful.

Even though they weren't on the same mountain, Chen Lin felt immense pressure.

"Hold still."

Chen Lin increased the output of the rune power and urgently transmitted his voice to Feng Xue.

Although the opponent did not unleash the power of a mid-level ruler, such a terrifying aura was not something that cultivators below the Wheel Realm could withstand. If they were not protected, all the cultivators from Jade Bright City present would die.

Among them are people he cares about, such as Zhao Meng, whom he cannot ignore.

"Snow!"

The wind and snow gave a soft snort.

The snowflakes scattered across the sky shimmered with a crystalline light.

These snowflakes, seemingly real yet illusory, transformed into abstract runes that intertwined with Chen Lin's runes, finally managing to block the terrifying aura from encroaching.

The thousands of terrified cultivators below, upon seeing this, all revealed expressions of relief at having escaped death.

"Do it!"

Wen Ruyu's aura reached its peak. Under his suppression, the runes on the tower gradually dimmed and finally froze in place.

The mysterious energy was also extremely weak.

I was reminded.

The four people on the dragon pillar attacked simultaneously.

Li Fuyao continued to use the Seven-Colored Arrow. Now that the treasure had been restored, he slashed it around the giant pillar, severing thick energy lines.

"Wake it up for me!"

She gave a cold shout.

A massive, dark energy hand appeared, like a dark cloud obscuring the sun, and engulfed the entire golden pillar.

Then exert force.

As the earth shook, the giant pillar was uprooted.

The other three sides are the same.

The black cat is the most relaxed.

Without using any treasures or growing any larger, it simply grabbed the golden pillar from afar, and the giant pillar was lifted up. The golden dragon coiled on it wailed and disappeared into the pillar.

A strange pattern lit up between Chunjiu's eyebrows.

Immediately, a three-headed, six-armed deity appeared behind him and calmly took out the giant pillar.

Only the red-haired rats faced the most difficulties.

He used almost every trick in the book, even his newly grown whiskers, to barely manage to pull out the dragon pillar, much slower than the others.

The red-haired rat's face turned a deep liver color.

Fortunately, it was red-haired, so it wasn't very clear.

Regardless, the mission was finally completed, and the entire mountain range began to tremble. Then, a huge light shield appeared around the perimeter, cracking open amidst the tremors.

Then it disappeared.

"Heh, the Shadow Scholar is nothing special."

Wen Ruyu chuckled softly, leaped from the tower, and shot off toward Ruzi Niu.

The others immediately followed.

The black cat looked at the tower with a puzzled expression, then at the four giant pillars that had been pulled from the ground, and pondered. "Senior, please be careful. That ox is protected by a spirit, and its fire magic is extremely powerful."

Chen Lin reminded him telepathically.

The other party had been helping him, so he naturally wanted to reciprocate.

The black cat nodded slightly.

Then, with a swipe of its claws through the void, it burrowed into the spatial rift.

They caught up with the group in the next moment.

The red-haired rat landed next to Chen Lin and shook off its dark fur.

Frustrated, he said, "Only ten thousand years have passed, how come so many freaks have appeared? They don't even have the Sovereign Realm, yet they can master Sovereign-level techniques. It's simply outrageous."

"Wasn't the senior a pervert too?"

Chen Lin smiled.

Then, looking in the direction of the ox, he said, "Now that the rainbow has been fully revealed, it is the best time to collect the treasure. Senior, would you still like to compete for it?"

"hey-hey."

The red-haired mouse chuckled.

"No rush, let them deal with the spirit first, we'll go last."

Chen Lin shook his head.

"That's what I thought too, but these people have so many hidden tricks up their sleeves. They didn't even use their full strength before. And since they came for this treasure, they must have mastered the means to collect it. If we don't fight now, we might miss our chance."

The red-haired mouse fell silent.

He nodded after a moment.

“You’re right. These are all beings who have lived for tens of thousands of years. None of them are stupid. Moreover, these people didn’t even force you, the one who holds the key, to take them with them. They really don’t take us seriously.”

Speaking of it.

A red glow emanated from its body, and it said in a deep voice, "Then let them witness the power of the Zodiac Demon King!"

Chen Lin turned to look at the wind and snow.

"Does Master Feng wish to come along?"

"go with!"

The wind and snow only replied with one word.

Chen Lin was taken aback.

He thought the other party didn't want to go, after all, even if the treasure like the Ruzi Niu fell into the other party's hands by chance, the other party wouldn't know how to use it.

Moreover, the other party is a temple monk, who must be controlled by Chunjiu, and therefore has no chance of obtaining the treasure.

"Let's go then."

After thinking it over, Chen Lin did not stop him.

Everyone has their own ideas, and we need to respect the fate of others. We can't judge things by appearances, and no one knows who will have the last laugh until the very end.

After telling Bai Qingshui and the others to find a place to hide, the three of them used their escape techniques and headed straight for Ruzi Niu.

Before they could even get close.

A terrifying flame shot into the sky, transforming into countless spears that enveloped an area of ​​hundreds of miles around.

Followed by.

A series of sharp shouts rang out.

Various magical lights flashed continuously, and the energy fluctuations were extremely chaotic, causing the entire secret realm to tremble constantly.

The three of them looked at each other.

At the same time, he landed on the ground, assuming the strongest defensive stance.

"Such powerful fire elemental abilities!"

The red-haired mouse exclaimed in surprise.

Then he pondered and said, "This spirit should have been born from the Dawn Stone. It seems that the legend is wrong. The second sun back then was not shot down, but was captured here by the Shadow Scholar and compressed to be used as an energy source for the Ox. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to leave behind a spirit."

"Using the sun as an energy source?"

Chen Lin was greatly surprised.

He had seen many high-level spiritual plants, all kinds of strange and unusual types, but he had never heard of one that grew by absorbing sunlight.

"No need to make a fuss."

The red-haired rat glanced at Chen Lin.

With an air of superiority, he said, "The sun is just a star. Using stars to feed spirit beasts and cultivate spirit plants is nothing extraordinary in the Star Ruins."

"but……"

It stroked its two remaining whiskers.

He said doubtfully, "With the Shadow Scholar's level, it seems he has no need for this. He has already entered the Primordial Realm, so it's impossible that he doesn't have Primordial Runes. It's pointless to bother with these."

"Was it left for someone?"

"Or."

"Is this just one of the ingredients in some kind of heaven-defying elixir that they're trying to refine?"

The red-haired rat watched the battle while making guesses.

Chen Lin's heart stirred.

He secretly wished that this thing wasn't left for him. If all the coincidences he experienced were orchestrated by the Shadow Scholar, he would be in real trouble.

He can struggle if someone else is manipulating the market, but if it's this person, it's probably useless no matter how hard he tries.

We can't accept it.

Absolutely not.

Chen Lin reaffirmed his resolve and vowed never to compete for the position of "the ox."

Since he has already obtained his natal rune, even if he is not quite at the original beginner level, he should be close enough to succeed. He can just cultivate step by step without causing any further trouble.

During the conversation between the two.

The battle ahead is becoming increasingly fierce.

The boy in red fought against the crowd alone and held his own. Several temple cultivators with slightly lower cultivation levels were even burned to ashes by the flames.

"That red-haired rat, are you trying to break the agreement and withdraw from the treasure hunt by not making a move?"

Seeing that his own side had suffered casualties, Chunjiu couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

She had no choice.

If one does not use the divine avatar, one's cultivation level will be at its weakest. However, the divine avatar has limitations and can only be used during the final battle for the treasure, making it somewhat difficult to cope with.

"Ha ha!"

The red-haired mouse laughed loudly.

"How about that? You can't do without me, can you? Now watch what I've got to do!"

Done.

It leaped forward, transforming into a streak of red light that shot towards the battle, but before it could get close, it was locked onto by a flamethrower, which enveloped it with a scorching heat that could incinerate everything.

"Damn it!"

The red-haired rat let out a strange cry.

With a twist of its body, it burrowed straight into the ground and disappeared.

Chen Lin grinned.

This red-haired rat was truly cunning, but since it was a rat, it was understandable that it had burrowed underground. Although everyone knew it was avoiding battle, they couldn't say anything about it.

"Take care of yourself."

Seeing that they had been discovered, Chen Lin didn't want to stay put. He instructed Feng Xue and activated his gem belt to burrow underground and explore the direction of Sunset Lake.

"Humph!"

Wen Ruyu snorted coldly.

He drew a semi-circle in the air with his palm, and the flame guns flying towards him were all stirred by energy, covering the place where Chen Lin had disappeared.

But it had no effect.

The ground was blasted with cracks and even huge craters, but Chen Lin and the red-haired rat were nowhere to be seen.

He looked grim.

His gaze then fell upon the boy in red.

Reach out.

Take out a dusty, gray bag.

He said in a deep voice, "Please help me suppress it, and I will subdue it!"

He then shook his pocket.

The pocket suddenly lit up with mysterious runes, constantly changing into complex sequences and emitting a mysterious aura.

"what!"

The boy in red seemed to sense the danger. As he screamed, his entire body transformed into a giant flaming spear. Influenced by its rules, flames rose up all over the secret realm.

Even the rainbow is ablaze.

"Stop it!"

Wen Ruyu shouted sharply.

The others immediately unleashed their strongest trump cards, with dozens of beams of energy enveloping the giant spear, preventing it from escaping for the time being.

"All right."

"receive!"

As Wen Ruyu's light and airy voice rang out.

The pocket in his hand slowly opened, and countless runes rotated in a spiral sequence, forming a small black hole.

The giant flaming spear was slowly sucked into it.
