I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

As soon as Chen Lin entered the void, countless starlight spirits rushed towards him.

However, after breaking free from the suppression, the Ninefold Armor took effect again. The rule power of the law characters and these starlight spirits were still of the same origin, so it could hold out for a while.

What he was more worried about was the desolate flame.

The opponent posed too great a threat to him, and he had absolutely no chance of winning. The ring given to him by Saintess Heqing not only failed to trap him, but also aroused his killing intent.

However, Chen Lin immediately felt that the intense sense of danger had weakened considerably.

Huang Yan didn't catch up either.

then.

His expression shifted.

With a gentle wave of the hand, the crystal needle landed in the palm.

Although its essence was somewhat damaged, it was not destroyed, indicating that the attack had been effective. This treasure, which had always seemed to have no limit, once again turned the tide.

However, Chen Lin did not stop observing.

Although the desolate flame was hit, its aura did not disappear, so it was definitely not killed.

Attacking Snow Butterfly's life symbol also failed.

The two were only temporarily trapped and would soon be freed. They had to take the opportunity to run as far away as possible. Once that happened, it wouldn't be easy for them to catch up with him in this sky full of starlight.

"Come with me!"

Sensing that the swordswoman was following, Chen Lin called out, shook off the surrounding starlight spirits, and shot off to the east.

He continued to follow the guidance of the wooden rooster divination.

Although they encountered dangers repeatedly, they were not in any life-threatening danger. The divination information also corresponded to the predictions. The seven-star conjoined phenomenon in the depths of the void is still there, and heading east is the best option.

As for how to determine the direction.

There are no special methods.

Based on the positioning method of the Big Dipper from the previous life, a rough direction was anchored using the two stars Tianxuan and Tianshu as coordinates.

Whether it's accurate or not is up to fate.

Chen Lin fled all the way.

The number of starlight spirits increased, almost completely filling the road ahead, yet he never changed direction.

He discovered that the magic characters had a certain restraining effect on these star spirits, though not very strong, but with the protection of the Ninefold Armor, they could barely hold on.

The swordswoman followed behind Chen Lin.

She is only the sword spirit of the Rainbow Sword, able to unleash its full power. This sword is a combination of the seven laws, and it also provides an advantage against the Star Spirit.

"Where are Niu Niu and the others?"

After getting used to it, Chen Lin finally had a chance to speak and asked the swordswoman a question.

"We've gotten separated."

The swordswoman and Chen Lin walked side by side.

He then explained, “We found the Star Lord’s secret realm ruins by following the key and entered it successfully, but we did not see the so-called Star Palace, and the Primordial Stele was nowhere to be found.”

"And they were trapped there."

"Until half a year ago, the Star Palace suddenly appeared and pulled us in."

"I appeared at that fork in the road, randomly chose a passage to enter, and then encountered the golden dragon, which captured me and trapped me there."

Chen Lin suddenly realized.

So that's how they got in; it was six months before the Star Gate appeared.

In that case, the Star Lord and Snow Butterfly's control over this place is not as strong as imagined; at least they cannot have complete control over it. Otherwise, they would have known that outsiders had appeared.

Who entered the secret realm?

Chen Lin continued to ask questions.

"many people."

"Your Daoist partner Luo Qinglan, Xiao Xun, Niu Niu, and Yun Hai Shang Ren, Hui Ye, Zi Di, and that Princess Ning."

Chen Lin was taken aback.

He didn't expect that Yun Hai Shang Ren and Kaguya would also go.

The Purple Emperor was not surprised.

The other party's Princess Ning is from the Moqigan tribe. It is rumored that she possesses the token of the Holy Maiden Heqing and has already taken over the Holy Temple. It is normal for her to be able to enter the secret realm.

However, in that case, the temple that the other party took over should not be the Star Temple.

"Didn't you join forces to kill Yun Hai Shang Ren and Kaguya?"

Chen Lin pressed for an answer.

Among these people, apart from Yun Hai Shang Ren and Kaguya, they are all in the same camp. If they join forces, killing the two of them would be a piece of cake.

"No."

The swordswoman shook her head.

"Kaguya has become very strong. She joined forces with Yunhai and almost killed us."

Chen Lin frowned immediately.

Kaguya and Niu Niu have a delicate relationship; if the other becomes stronger, it's not a good thing for Niu Niu.

"Did they all come here too?"

"Ah."

The swordswoman replied.

"But we couldn't find a place to land, and we don't know if they are still alive. If we encounter a powerful being like the Golden Dragon, the chances of survival are slim."

Chen Lin's heart sank.

These people are considered strong outside, even capable of going toe-to-toe with the Supreme Being, but here they are no match for them.

Don't even mention the Golden Dragon.

Even the Frost Beasts guarding the passage were beyond their ability to handle.

Not to mention all those Star Spirits.

Chen Lin seized the opportunity to look back, but all he could see was a sky full of stars, so he could only keep his worries to himself.

Why are we running this way? Did you discover something?

The swordswoman repelled the star spirit that pounced on her and asked the question she had always wanted to ask.

"Not finding it is just a feeling."

Chen Lin couldn't explain it and could only give vague answers.

He had hoped that since Niu Niu was here, he could ask her about the wooden chicken and many other questions, but given the current situation, he probably wouldn't be able to meet her.

“If we keep flying like this, we can’t keep going for long. We have to come up with a solution.”

The swordswoman frowned slightly.

He then said, "I remember you have a treasure called Star Toad. How is the restoration going? If it's fully restored, it might help us escape this place."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed upon hearing this.

Reach out.

The star toad then appeared in his hand.

"Is this what you mean? It doesn't seem to have reached the true level of a ruler, and I don't know if it has fully recovered."

The swordswoman glanced at it.

Disappointed, he said, "It still has flaws. It's a pity. Otherwise, this treasure would have been perfect for this purpose. It was also a backup plan that the Star Lord left in case of unforeseen circumstances."

"Star Lord?"

Chen Lin was somewhat surprised.

"As far as I know, this treasure belongs to the Star Emperor. Since it was a contingency plan left by the Star Lord, there is no reason for it to be passed down. It should be kept on his person."

"The Star Emperor is the reincarnation of the Star Lord."

The swordswoman gave Chen Lin an answer that surprised him.

He had always thought that the Star Emperor was the Star Lord's disciple, and that he was the one who received the inheritance later, not even a direct disciple. He never expected that he was actually a reincarnation.

"You seem to know a lot about the Star Lord's affairs."

Chen Lin tentatively inquired.

They had now broken out of the dense area of ​​star spirits, and the pressure had eased considerably. It was a good opportunity to inquire about the Star Lord; perhaps it would help them find a way out.

"Because I am the spirit of the Rainbow Sword."

The swordswoman didn't hide anything.

"The Rainbow Sword belongs to Saintess He Qing. I've been by their side all this time, so I naturally know more about it."

"Is the Rainbow Sword the Saintess's? I thought it belonged to the Star Lord."

Chen Lin continued to ask questions.

The swordswoman remained silent for a while.

Sigh softly.

"It can also be said to belong to the Star Lord. In fact, this sword, the Seven Star Sun Technique, and the Seven Star Flower were all obtained by Saintess Heqing and the Star Lord when they explored a secret place." "And they became Daoist partners because of this."

"Back then, the Star Lord gave all the treasures to the Holy Maiden in order to please her."

"Seven-star flower?"

Upon hearing this name, Chen Lin's expression immediately changed.

He immediately wrapped the Jade Pendant in a magic symbol and asked in a deep voice, "Is the Seven Star Flower the Seven Realms Flower, and also a treasure of Saintess He Qing?"

"There is no Seven Realms Flower in this world."

The swordswoman spoke calmly.

"The so-called Seven Realms Flower and Seven-Colored Flower are just projections of the Seven Star Flower. They are the means by which the Holy Maiden absorbs the energy of those seven mysterious stars, while the real Seven Star Flower has always been in the Holy Maiden's hands."

"Besides absorbing the power of the stars, does this flower have any other uses? Could it be used as a vessel for resurrection?"

Chen Lin asked the key question.

"You saw the Holy Maiden?"

The swordswoman immediately realized what was happening.

He stared intently at Chen Lin, his expression somewhat complicated.

There was a mix of anticipation and excitement, as well as worry and trepidation—a truly contradictory feeling.

"I don't know if she is a saintess. I just received a seed, and after it grew, it became a seven-colored flower. She calls herself the Saintess Heqing."

Chen Lin thought for a moment and then answered truthfully.

"where is she?"

The swordswoman hurriedly pressed for more information.

This time, Chen Lin did not answer directly, but said vaguely, "She sealed herself away, saying it was to avoid being discovered by the Star Lord. Her strength must have been greatly weakened after her resurrection."

"Is that so?"

Chen Lin clearly sensed that the swordswoman's expression relaxed after hearing this answer.

This left him confused.

Just as he was about to ask further questions, the swordswoman suddenly became serious.

"This doesn't seem good."

Taking advantage of a gap in the Star Spirit's attack, she stopped and looked back.

"What's wrong."

Chen Lin also became nervous.

As the spirit of the Rainbow Sword, the other party is now one with the sword, and their perception here is higher than his. It is very likely that they have discovered the pursuers.

But I watched it for a while.

The swordswoman withdrew her gaze.

He continued flying forward, saying, "Kaguya is the reincarnation of that Snow Butterfly. Once Snow Butterfly discovers and merges with her, that woman's strength will increase dramatically, and these Star Spirits will be unable to stop her from chasing us."

"Kaguya is an incarnation of Yukicho!"

This news greatly surprised Chen Lin.

According to previous information, Kaguya and Niu Niu have a very deep connection. If the other party is the alter ego of Xue Die, wouldn't that mean that Niu Niu is also related to Xue Die?

Xue Die and He Qing, the Holy Maiden, became enemies.

The Holy Maiden He Qing was on him.

The relationship is too complicated to sort out in a short time, and it's unclear which side he should stand on.

"Yes."

The swordswoman's tone grew increasingly serious.

She glanced at Chen Lin and suddenly asked, "Do you and Niu Niu have a special way to contact each other?"

"Yes, it exists, but it cannot be used here."

Chen Lin shook his head in reply.

"Then she can only hope for the best."

The swordswoman sighed.

"Snow Butterfly is extremely powerful. If she merges with Kaguya, regardless of who is the master, she will inevitably have to find Niu Niu, because Niu Niu is Kaguya's Nightmare Realm projection. Merging with her will greatly increase her strength."

"It can even use the Primordial Monument."

"In that case, none of the people here would be a match for it."

Chen Lin fell silent again.

He had long suspected that Niu Niu was a projection of Kaguya, so it wasn't surprising. However, he was in dire straits himself, unable to help them or find their whereabouts.

Do you know there's a wooden door here?

Suppress your irritability.

Chen Lin changed the subject and inquired about the wooden door.

Having flown through the void for so long without seeing any changes, he could no longer act according to the divination of the wooden rooster and needed to see if there was any other information that could be used.

"know."

The swordswoman answered immediately.

He continued, "The reason why the Holy Maiden and the Star Lord want to open up a realm here is to use the power of all living beings in the myriad realms to strengthen the power of the Seven Laws, so as to open that wooden door."

"Then do you know where the wooden door is?"

Chen Lin's spirits lifted.

But the swordswoman's answer extinguished any hope.

"I don't know either. Not only do I not know, but even the Star Lord and the Holy Maiden don't know. The wooden door appeared automatically back then, so its location couldn't be determined."

"Have you heard Saintess Heqing mention anything about what that wooden door might lead to?"

"do not know either."

The swordswoman gave a negative answer again.

He pondered for a moment.

She speculated, "There are a few possibilities. One is that it is connected to the cultivation place of the Star Palace Master, and another is the Three Realms of Heaven, Earth and Dao. However, these are not what the Holy Maiden expects."

What does the saintess expect?

Chen Lin looked at the swordswoman's face.

"What she hoped for was that the wooden door could lead to a higher dimension, or even break free from the constraints of the Book of Creation and go to that legendary place."

Even if we can't go out.

"It would be great if we could obtain some higher-level energy, so that our name could rank higher on the Ascension Ranking and qualify for the Ascension Trial."

"The Trial of Ascension?"

This answer surprised Chen Lin.

It turns out that the Holy Maiden and the Star Lord had been plotting for so long, making such a grand gesture, even opening up a new realm, all for the sake of just one trial spot.

It gives people an unreal feeling.

"Don't think this spot is easy to get."

The swordswoman saw through Chen Lin's thoughts.

He explained, "The Ascending Heaven Ranking isn't something anyone can do. It selects cultivators based on their methods, not their cultivation level. According to the research of our predecessors, the level of energy mastery will affect the ranking."

"Therefore, obtaining a higher level of power is the goal pursued by those who want to break free from constraints."

"The Saintess and the Star Lord discovered this wooden door and sensed an unprecedentedly powerful energy behind it, so they spared no effort to hide it."

Unfortunately, fate is fickle.

"Ultimately, due to the instigation of that bitch Xue Die, the Star Lord and the Holy Maiden became enemies and died in a great battle. Only some fragmented consciousnesses entered the cycle of reincarnation."

"Now that I've come back, everything has changed, and I'm not even sure if I still have all the memories."

The swordswoman's voice grew increasingly mournful.

Chen Lin finally revealed this ancient secret.

It can be said that the mysteries of the entire star field originated from this couple, and all the schemes surrounding them were influenced by them.

Everyone regarded him as the reincarnation of the Star Lord.

That's why he had an opportunity that others could hardly imagine, and attracted the attention of so many powerful figures. But now that the mystery has been revealed, his opportunity is probably over, and what will replace it is a series of setbacks.

As the saying goes, what goes around comes around.

This is cause and effect.

"what?"

"Look, what is that?"

As they were talking, the swordswoman exclaimed in surprise and pointed ahead.

Chen Lin immediately looked over.

Then they saw a small, dark shadow slowly drifting to one side. (End of Chapter)
