I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Snow Butterfly stopped in her tracks.

Chen Lin immediately became vigilant, worried that the two would directly attack each other.

If what Saintess Heqing said is true, then these two found him to make him the spirit of the Soul-Severing Bell, and he could cause trouble at any time.

There is even a possibility.

He was also one of the 'spirit seeds' cultivated by the Star Lord. His arrival here was arranged, after all, the Seven Star Realms were all created by the Star Lord, and it was easy for him to influence his actions.

However, Snow Butterfly did not make a move.

Instead, he pointed to the end and said, "There's no road ahead, only a door, but it feels dangerous. Let's go back and check out the other two passages before deciding which one to take."

Chen Lin looked intently in that direction.

Sure enough, in the dimly lit area ahead, the passage was blocked off, with only a bluish-white stone door.

There is also a relief on the stone gate, but it is not the Suihan Beast, but a very abstract creature that has never been seen in any ancient books.

"Then go back."

Huang Yan said indifferently.

Xue Die looked at Chen Lin.

After feigning hesitation, Chen Lin nodded, while observing the reactions of the two men.

Especially the desolate flames.

If the other party is indeed the reincarnation of the Star Lord mentioned by Saintess Heqing, they should be very familiar with everything here. I wonder what their purpose is in putting on this act.

The greatest possible.

The goal was to make him willingly accept the identity of a spirit.

As Chen Lin followed them back, he secretly pondered their intentions.

If I'm not mistaken.

The fusion of the Soul-Severing Bell with the spirit cannot be forced; the person being fused with must actively cooperate. Otherwise, the two should have attacked the moment they encountered it.

The second possibility.

The two of them are now much weaker and not confident that they can capture him alive, so they have no choice but to use the method of luring him.

Besides these two, there is another possibility.

That means Saintess He Qing is lying and wants to use him to kill the two of them. It's even hard to say whether these two are the Star Lord and his maid. He has too little information to get an accurate answer.

While thinking.

The three returned to the fork in the road.

Turn around.

Snow Butterfly was the first to walk into the central passage.

Chen Lin's eyes flickered.

However, they restrained themselves and did not suggest splitting up. They were all beings who had cultivated for countless years, and any slight abnormality would be noticed.

At the end of this passage is also a blue stone door.

There is also a relief above, but it is not the Suihan Beast, and it is different from the one in the first passage.

The same applies to the third passage.

After checking everything, the three returned to the intersection.

Xue Die looked at Chen Lin and said, "Brother, you have a talent for destiny. Why don't you divine which passage is safer to take?"

Chen Lin immediately shook his head.

"Miss Xue Die overestimates me. My talent level is too low, and I can't exert any power here. Divination will only interfere with my choices."

"That's it."

Upon hearing Chen Lin's answer, Xue Die looked thoughtful.

Then he looked at Huang Yan.

"In that case, please make the decision, young master. You've always been lucky, so even if you don't get the best one, you won't get the worst one."

"Hahaha!"

Huang Yan laughed heartily.

"Let me choose! I am the chosen one, and every move I make carries great fortune!"

He boasted a little.

He took three coins out of his pocket.

Chen Lin's eyes flashed.

The three coins the other party presented were the same size and similar in shape, but their patterns and colors were different.

One of them is orange-yellow, like an ancient copper coin from a previous life, with a square hole in the middle and four characters similar to small seal script engraved on it.

The other one is black and white.

The boundary is arc-shaped, resembling a yin-yang symbol, but not entirely identical.

To Chen Lin's surprise, it was the last one.

It's actually a Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin!
However, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this seven-colored nightmare coin was different from the normal seven-colored nightmare coin. The patterns on it were more complex, and the aura was more subtle.

"Copper coins!"

Huang Yan shouted, clasped his hands together, made the coins shake inside, and then threw them into the air.

After landing on the ground, I took a look.

"The copper coin is in the middle, so we should go through the middle passage!"

Chen Lin blinked.

This divination method is really simple. I don't know if it's truly effective or just a deliberate attempt to create mystery, but in reality, it's just a way to subtly lead him into the middle path.

"In that case, let's go."

Xue Die and Huang Yan put away the coins, waved, and walked into the passage.

"Brother, trust me. These three divination coins of mine are extraordinary, far superior to those guys from the Taoist sect. It will definitely be safe to go through this passage."

"Second brother is indeed formidable; he has all sorts of tricks up his sleeve."

Chen Lin gave a compliment.

But he immediately added, "However, this is, after all, a suspected higher-dimensional space, so the divination might be interfered with. I think Second Brother should perform the divination twice more to see if there are any other changes."

"Makes sense!"

Huang Yan nodded repeatedly.

Xue Die, who was about to stop them, saw this and remained silent, waiting at the entrance of the passage.

"Stealth money!"

Huang Yan shook the coins in his hand again.

At this time.

Chen Lin had a sudden thought.

The realm of talent quietly unfolds; imagine that after the coins fall, the outcome will be favorable to you.

A faint line appeared.

He was immediately overjoyed.

The opponent's three coins were initially mysterious and Chen Lin was worried that his talent wouldn't work, but now it seems that the opponent's methods weren't so outrageous after all.

of course.

This is also related to the fact that the conditions he imagined were too vague.

Suppress distracting thoughts.

Chen Lin intensified the stimulation of his innate abilities.

But his expression changed.

Once things became clearer, he discovered that the line was actually broken!

This situation illustrates that, given his talent and abilities, he doesn't even have the power to influence the outcome, so he has no way of reaching the turning point of fate, and the turning point hasn't even appeared yet.

Without a second thought, Chen Lin immediately activated the Seven Star Runes into his talent domain, condensing magic characters to attempt to repair the lines.

He had tried this method before.

The talisman can enhance the effects of innate abilities, since the components of this talisman contain the rules of fate, and the two can be considered to have the same origin.

With the blessing of the Dharma character.

The lines became increasingly bright, releasing two beams of light as the characters rotated, like two chains that had broken apart and were pulled back together.

Even so, the lines still couldn't blend together.

You can't just keep using the talisman to pull the line, because simply connecting the lines isn't enough. You also need to go to the node and correct the direction of fate, where the talisman's blessing is needed.

Time is tight.

In a flash, Chen Lin manifested the Chain of Fate, used the chain to secure the 'connector', and then flew swiftly along the lines. He saw a blurry cluster of light at a node, wrapped himself in the magic characters, and flew directly towards it.

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, he spread out his talent domain.

Consciousness returns to reality.

Huang Yan had already tossed three coins into the air.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew through the passage.

Two of the coins that were close together seemed to be affected, as they collided with each other with a crisp clang, then spun as they fell, still rolling when they hit the ground.

Thus.

The location has changed.

If it had fallen straight down, the Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin should have landed in the middle, but instead it spun and ended up on the left.

"It seems I was right. The energy here does affect divination. Second brother, you can continue divining. We'll choose whichever result appears twice with the same outcome."

Huang Yan glanced at Xue Die.

Seeing that the other person had no expression, he took the coins into his hand and began to perform divination again.

"Stealth money!"

He does not believe in evil.

Once again, using the Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin as an anchor point, it was forcefully thrown into the air.

There was no impact.

However, after landing, the Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin landed in the corner of the wall, and with a gentle bounce, it bounced from the middle to the left.

"Hey!"

Huang Yan looked surprised.

He walked up to the Seven-Colored Nightmare Coin, examined it carefully, and then looked at the other two coins. He picked them all up and said, "Since fate is guiding us to the left, let's go to the left."

Xue Die paused for a moment.

Without raising any objections, they took the lead and entered the passage on the left.

Huang Yan glanced at Chen Lin.

blinked.

"Brother's talent for destiny is the best foundation for divination. You should develop in this direction. After you arrive at Star Ruins, I will help you get a divination technique from the Daoist sect. It will definitely greatly enhance your divination ability."

"Then thank you very much, Second Brother."

Chen Lin smiled in response and followed him into the passage.

Then, while remaining cautious, they considered whether or not to make the first move.

Opportunities to separate are hard to come by.

The snow butterfly had been watching him the whole time, and might have already noticed his little tricks. It was unlikely that she would agree to split up.

If he were to face two opponents, he would only have a slight chance of winning if he made the first move.

However, remembering Saintess He Qing's instructions, Chen Lin suppressed the thought.

Silently following along as it flew by.

Even if a top-tier ruler is weakened, he cannot kill them. Moreover, Xue Die seems to be even more powerful than Huang Yan, and Saintess He Qing also bluntly stated that he is no match for her.

We still need to wait for the perfect opportunity.

Having already passed through once, the three moved quickly and arrived at the bluestone gate in just a few breaths.

"Get ready, I'm going to break down the door!"

Before letting Chen Lin use the Soul-Destroying Finger, Xue Die gave him a word of advice and then punched the stone gate!
"boom!"

The fist's energy, carrying a butterfly-shaped pattern of light and shadow, struck the stone door without any fancy moves. The relief carvings on it immediately erupted with a terrifying aura, twisting and detaching from the stone door.

But before they could retaliate...

It was directly blasted apart by the fist's force, and the stone gate shattered in response.

Chen Lin's lips twitched.

This woman's fighting prowess is indeed formidable.

Judging from the power he just displayed, his mastery of the rules of power has reached an extremely deep level; his nine-layered armor may not be able to withstand it.

"Who dares disturb my peaceful cultivation!"

An aged voice rang out from behind the stone gate, causing Chen Lin to retreat rapidly. He could no longer consider the difference in strength and immediately extended his senses to check the situation.

"Humph!"

Xue Die did not retreat, but instead leaped into the stone gate.

Huang Yan followed closely behind.

Seeing this, Chen Lin hesitated for a moment, then split his body in two, condensing a true soul body, and flashed after them.

He didn't dare to gamble.

Now, everything these two do seems like they're plotting against him, so he can only be extra careful.

"Who are you, and why have you come here?"

The old voice sounded again.

Chen Lin stopped.

Glanced.

Here was another grand hall, about the same size as the previous one. In the center of the hall stood a huge black pillar with a golden dragon coiled around it.

The dragon head emerged from the pillar, staring at them with its giant, scarlet eyes.

This is the thing that is speaking.

Seeing that the other party did not launch an attack directly, and that Huang Yan and Xue Die showed no abnormalities, Chen Lin felt relieved and let his main body come in and merge back into one place.

Then continue to observe.

His expression immediately froze.

On the stone platform beneath the giant pillar stood a slender figure, holding a seven-colored sword in her hand.

It's a swordswoman!
After taking a second look and confirming that he hadn't misread it, Chen Lin became suspicious.

Why is the other person here?
Was he captured and brought in, or did the other party also come to explore the stargate and enter this place before him?

Or maybe.

This colorful building is the Star Palace that Niu Niu and her friends are going to. So where did Niu Niu and the others go?
Chen Lin was shocked, but he didn't show it at all.

Instead, he activated his Heavenly Eye to its fullest extent, looking around. After finding no trace of Niu Niu and the others, his gaze fell on the Golden Dragon.

At the same time, use your senses to observe the reactions of Huang Yan and the other person.

He didn't go to see the swordswoman again.

His appearance and aura have changed, so the swordswoman definitely won't recognize him. It's not the right time to greet him; she should observe the situation first before making a decision.

"I'm asking you a question. Who are you? If you don't answer, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Seeing that the three ignored him, the golden dragon roared angrily.

The vibrations made the entire hall vibrate.

Chen Lin remained silent.

His mind raced with thoughts.

He had just sensed that Xue Die's expression changed slightly after seeing the swordswoman's figure; she seemed somewhat surprised.

Huang Yan didn't react much.

This puzzled him.

If neither of them knew the Sword Maiden was there, they should both be surprised, especially Huang Yan, who might even shout out loud.

Is Huang Yan more cunning, or is it that the two have different information?
Could it be that there's a rift between these two?
"and who are you?"

Seeing that Chen Lin and Xue Die remained silent, Huang Yan finally couldn't help but speak up.

"I am the ancestor of the dragon gods. Why don't you kneel before me?"

"Golden Dragon looked down and said."

"cut!"

Huang Yan curled his lip.

"You're the ancestor of dragons? You look like a little grass snake to me. And you're kneeling? Believe me or not, I'll skin you alive and use your flesh to make soup."

"Wow ah ah..."

"You lowly ants, how dare you be so insolent to me! Divine Dragon Guards, kill them!"

The golden dragon roared incessantly.

"I will obey Your Majesty's command!"

The swordswoman on the stone platform below leaped into the air, her rainbow sword radiating a dazzling light. She swept it over the three people before locking onto Xue Die.

Chen Lin's heart sank.

He knew the Sword Maiden's level; she was definitely top-tier in the Eternal Realm. However, she hadn't broken through to the Dominator Realm, so she couldn't possibly be a match for Snow Butterfly. Although he and Snow Butterfly weren't close, he didn't want her to die here.

"and many more!"

Seeing that the other party was about to rush over, Chen Lin immediately spoke up to stop them.

But it didn't work.

The swordswoman unleashed her sword energy, her rainbow sword gleaming with seven-colored light, and slashed down at Xue Die! (End of Chapter)
