I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Time passed little by little.

Before we knew it, another half a year had passed.

Chen Lin didn't know when Lu Ming planned to make his move, so he could only stay in his room to cultivate, taking the opportunity to refine the Innate Spirit Pearl.

However, the effects are not immediate.

The Innate Spirit Pearl is a nurturing treasure, which improves a treasure relatively slowly. Its advantage is that it aligns with the Great Dao and will not have any negative impact on the treasure itself.

Once refined, you don't need to do anything else; just let it take effect gradually.

This day.

Chen Lin was comprehending the Soul-Destroying Finger when Lu Ming's King's Decree finally reacted again.

"Get to work!"

An incoherent voice came from the other end.

This time, Chen Lin would not underestimate his opponent. He suspected that the opponent was actually a powerful ruler, and that his eccentric personality was just an act.

It's not even an ordinary ruler.

Otherwise, even if others didn't say so, Yuan Nianzhen would never submit, and the Yin Yang Sect would never agree.

After giving instructions to the people in the cave, Chen Lin got up, left the room, and went to the lobby on the first floor.

As I walked around, I couldn't help but admire the treasure that was Furong Tower.

This is also a treasure of the grotto.

Not only can its size be changed at will, but it can also be set according to the owner's wishes. It can be used for business, as a cave dwelling, or for fighting enemies. It is simply infinitely versatile.

Compared to the other one, his Jade Pendant from the Cave Heaven seemed too simple, and its power of rules was far inferior.

pity.

High-level treasures that can be moved are rare items in the Star Ruins; they are simply unavailable for purchase, and even if you manage to acquire them, you cannot keep them without sufficient strength.

First floor lobby.

Everyone had arrived, except for one unfamiliar face.

He's a fat man.

He has a kind face and a friendly demeanor; you can feel a sense of closeness without even having to talk to him.

"This is Hu Changjiu. He used to work at Jingyun Trading Company, and now he has joined my ranks, in charge of all business operations on Deer Island."

"I suppose... I'll assume you're in charge."

Lu Ming introduced himself in a casual manner.

Upon hearing the name Jingyun Trading Company, Chen Lin couldn't help but glance at the fat man a couple more times, wondering if the man knew his cheap sworn brother.

"Hu Changjiu greets all the esteemed officials."

The fat man stood up with a big smile, spun around and bowed, and said, "From now on, I, Fatty Hu, will serve you gentlemen. Please take good care of me."

Chen Lin returned the greeting with a cupped hand.

They did not inquire about Young Master Jing and Madam Ming.

Instead, she looked at Lu Ming.

He asked directly, "Has Your Majesty taken back Deer Island?"

"not yet."

Lu Ming twisted his body.

"However, an agreement has been reached with all parties. As long as we resolve the crisis of the strange creatures invading the island, we can obtain 70% ownership."

"hey-hey."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming couldn't help but laugh.

"To get such a huge benefit without spending a single penny, Lu Sheng and the people of the Thousand Towers Alliance must be green with envy."

At this time.

Wang Yan, who looked like a young boy, suddenly spoke.

"Will they help us fight the strange creatures?"

Everyone looked at Lu Ming.

Since it wasn't an unconditional takeover, it means that Lushima hasn't reached its end. Otherwise, it would have been enough to save the lives of the cultivators on the island, and there would have been no need to share the island's profits.

"They would like to, but unfortunately they can't."

Lu Ming shrugged.

“A while ago, Lu Sheng led his men out to fight a strange creature and almost lost them all. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so willing to make a deal with me.”

A slight pause.

He added, "However, in business, it's hard to develop if you try to do everything yourself. They've been supporting me at Langdang Mountain all these years, so there's no need for them to be so greedy."

Done.

He waved his hand.

"Now it's up to us. As long as we destroy that King-level anomaly, Deer Island will be ours for the taking. I will definitely reward those who have contributed!"

"A King-level anomaly?"

Everyone, including Chen Lin, looked surprised.

Yuan Nianzhen immediately said, "Your Majesty, strange creatures are already difficult to deal with, and king-level strange creatures are the highest level of existence in the strange kingdom. With our cultivation levels, aren't we being a bit too reckless?"

"hehe."

Lu Ming smiled nonchalantly.

"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a low-level King-level monster, something like the All-Heavens Manifestation God King. With such a long name, it doesn't sound very powerful." "Let's do it."

"set off!"

"Your Majesty, please do not act rashly."

Chen Lin immediately spoke up to stop him.

Then he said in a deep voice, "I know this All-Heaven Manifestation God King. Although his title is long, he is not an ordinary being. He can easily pluck the sun from a higher dimension."

"Oh?"

Lu Ming blinked.

He sat back down in his chair and asked, "Have you ever seen this strange creature? What kind of supernatural powers does it possess?"

"I've never seen him before."

Chen Lin truthfully recounted the situation that had occurred on Nana's interface.

At the same time, he pondered in his heart.

I wonder if Nana is still alive, and whether she will appear with this God King. He promised her something, but he has been putting it off.

And is the appearance of this god-king here related to him?

"I see..."

After listening to Chen Lin's words, Lu Ming tilted his head and thought for a moment.

He waved his hand again.

"This little anomaly is nothing to fear. Once we get there, I will trap it first, and you can attack from there!"

Chen Lin glanced at Yuan Nianzhen and the other two.

All three of them hesitated.

Although they all knew that Lu Ming was definitely a strong person, they had never seen him fight and did not know his true strength. Moreover, the strange creature was different from ordinary cultivators, and conventional methods were useless against it.

"What, you're scared already?"

Lu Ming narrowed his eyes.

His expression clearly turned displeased.

"I'm not so much afraid, but we should discuss how to coordinate to avoid any mishaps later."

Wang Yan spoke calmly.

Chen Lin nodded in agreement and guessed the man's identity.

Since the other party was a worshipper like him, given Lu Ming's style of doing things, unless he had special means or a special background, he would definitely have taken him in as a general.

"It's no use."

Lu Ming shook his head.

“The strange creatures are alien species, which cannot be understood by the mindset of us Star Ruins cultivators. The more meticulous the plan, the easier it is to make mistakes. Direct confrontation is the best option.”

"And there's no time left."

“That strange creature is just outside the island. The island's protective formation won't last long. If we delay any longer, all the creatures on the island will be contaminated.”

Everyone's expression changed upon hearing this.

Yuan Nianzhen asked in confusion, "The island-protecting formation must be at the Dominator level. The energy fluctuations from the attack must be significant. How come I didn't sense anything at all?"

It's normal that Chen Lin and the others couldn't sense it; after all, inside the Hibiscus Pavilion, their senses would be blocked by this treasure.

But she is the owner of Furong Tower.

There was absolutely no sensation, which is very illogical.

"Didn't I already say that the methods of strange creatures are different from those of us cultivators? Conventional formations are completely ineffective against them. If it weren't for Lu Sheng's skill in setting up a special formation, that so-called Manifestation God King would have already come to the island."

Lu Ming replied impatiently.

Then he glanced at the others, finally settling on Chen Lin.

“If they don’t want to go, then forget it. Chen Gongfeng, come with me. The two of us will take care of that guy, and you can have half of Kashima’s profits.”

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."

Chen Lin immediately tried to persuade him.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan and the others are just worried; they certainly don't want to disobey orders. Since the master has already made up his mind, then let's do as the master says."

He didn't want to take the risk himself.

Even if these people aren't very useful, they can still distract the strange creature and prevent him from facing it alone.

If we can't win...

He might not be able to outrun Lu Ming and General Xiao Lan, but he can definitely outrun these people.

"I will obey Your Majesty's orders!"

The other three also expressed their opinions.

In fact, everyone understands that at this point, there is no other way to go.

If the island's protective formation is broken, they will suffer the same fate; it's just a matter of whether they die sooner or later.

"Hahaha."

"That's right, we cultivators should forge ahead bravely."

"set off!"

Lu Ming laughed loudly and was the first to walk out of the Hibiscus Pavilion. (End of Chapter)
