I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

Upon seeing Bai Yujing, Chen Lin was overjoyed.

He immediately got up and went to greet them.

"Brother Bai, you've finally shown up."

Bai Yujing sighed softly.

"I went to take care of some things. I didn't expect so many things to have happened during this time. Tell me about the situation in the secret realm, and then we'll set off."

"it is good."

Chen Lin agreed.

Then he recounted everything he knew.

It includes the special rules of the secret realm, his and Bai Lingyu's experiences, the strange phenomena in the Refining God Tower, even the information about the blind girl and the Heart Realm, and the matter of the Sword Clan.

This is a time when we cannot hide it.

Even the slightest information gap can have serious consequences.

Bai Yujing's expression turned solemn after hearing this.

He had done some preliminary research before coming here, but the information he obtained was incomplete. Now he finally has a true understanding of this secret realm.

"It seems this place is quite interesting."

He made a comment.

Bai Yujing looked at the blind woman.

"This must be a fellow Daoist from the Realm of the Heart. Do you know the specific origin of the Refining God Tower?"

The blind woman shook her head.

"I was affected by the rules of the strange kingdom, which caused me to lose my memory. My memory of the Tower of Divine Refinement is a bit vague. I only remember that this tower is a secret place, and you can get benefits by passing the levels."

"But I failed to pass the test and was instead suppressed by a mysterious powerful figure for countless years."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yujing pointed with his finger.

A sword light flew out and hovered in front of the blind girl's brow, emitting a series of sword cries.

Chen Lin was startled.

However, they discovered that the sword light was merely hovering and did not intend to continue attacking. Under the influence of the sword's cry, the blind girl trembled all over, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, as if she was in great pain.

soon.

Bai Yujing waved his hand, and the sword light was withdrawn.

The blind woman continued to tremble, and it took a full half incense stick's time for her to calm down.

He immediately bowed to Bai Yujing.

"Thank you for your help, sir. My daughter has regained her memories. The Refining God Tower is a strange place in the Heart Realm, where it is said to suppress an extraterrestrial demon."

"But this is just a legend; no one has actually seen it."

"As time went by, it gradually became a place of adventure. As long as you pass the checkpoints, you can obtain some special inheritances. As for where the inheritances come from, there is no conclusion."

"An extraterrestrial demon?"

Bai Yujing muttered something to himself.

He said calmly, "Since it is a Holy Spirit, there is no need to worry about it. Let's go and take a look without delay."

"it is good."

Chen Lin immediately agreed.

He was secretly shocked by the other party's methods. The fact that the sword light could restore memories was truly a subversion of his understanding. He was confident that his current swordsmanship was not low, but he was not on the same level as the other party at all.

A high-level ruler, terrifying indeed!
Within the secret realm.

The three of them flashed and arrived on the island behind the passage.

Nothing much has changed here. Cultivators come and go, all remaining wary of each other. Those who are not very familiar with each other don't even greet each other.

"It's in that direction."

Chen Lin pointed.

Then he pointed to the edge of the island, "There are large ships from the Azure Heaven Palace there. We can take a boat there to avoid attracting attacks from transcendent spirits due to the fluctuations in our magical power."

"No need for that."

With a wave of his hand, Bai Yujing summoned a sword light that swept up the three of them. In a flash, they crossed the sea and arrived at the shore that Bai Lingyu had led them to after many hardships.

Chen Lin was even more amazed.

His own brother, whom he had taken for granted, was incredibly powerful. Bai Lingyu was already a mid-level Dominator, but compared to him, the difference was like that between a firefly and the bright moon.

"go!"

Without wasting words, Bai Yujing glanced at the dilapidated giant tower in the distance, and with another swirl of sword light, arrived nearby.

"Brother, be careful."

Seeing that the other party was about to enter directly, Chen Lin immediately reminded them.

"Last time Elder Bai and I went in, we couldn't get to the first floor. Instead, we fell into an unknown underground level. I was lucky enough to get through one of the trials and return to the surface."

"nothing."

Bai Yujing spoke calmly.

Then a short sword appeared in his hand, and he lightly slashed at the tower gate in front of him.

Chen Lin felt the dilapidated giant tower tremble, as if some barrier had been broken. He then sensed that it could penetrate the barrier and discovered the downward staircase.

"Let's go."

Bai Yujing was the first to enter the tower.

Chen Lin had a brief telepathic conversation with the blind girl and immediately followed.

really.

This time was different from the last time. Instead of falling directly down, I entered a normal hall, but it was empty and devoid of any items.

Without delay, Bai Yujing went straight down the steps.

The three of them kept going.

After passing through four completely dilapidated areas, we arrived at the fifth level.

"This is it."

Upon seeing the familiar scene, Chen Lin immediately spoke.

"There's nothing special here. Keep going down. You two stick close to me."

Bai Yujing gave a shout and leaped into the crevice.

Upon seeing this.

Chen Lin and the blind girl followed the same method.

Since there was such a powerful figure present, they also wanted to see what was being suppressed at the very bottom of the Divine Refining Tower.

Unexpected.

The three of them landed safely on the sixth floor without being attacked, and not a single invisible thread appeared.

Chen Lin was secretly surprised and suspicious.

He couldn't help but secretly complain to himself that the monster was a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and wouldn't show itself if there was a powerful person around.

"Brother, have you sensed the monster's presence?"

After using his spiritual sense to investigate the situation on this floor, Chen Lin looked at Bai Yujing and asked.

"No."

Bai Yujing shook her head slightly.

"I guess they've already left, or maybe they were taken away by their keepers. I can sense that there are powerful beings in this tower, and more than one."

"More than one?"

Chen Lin's expression changed slightly.

A powerful being who can command the respect of the other party must at least be a high-level ruler, especially in this kind of environment. If such a person appears, Bai Yujing might be fine, but he and the blind girl would be in danger.

"Don't worry."

Bai Yujing seemed to know what Chen Lin was thinking.

He comforted them, saying, "These powerful auras are all in different locations, seemingly bound by rules. Otherwise, they would have come over long ago. Since they didn't come out to stop us, it means there are restrictions."

"but."

He looked down with a solemn expression.

"The underground part of this tower has nine floors. I can sense the eighth floor, but the ninth floor is blocked. If Bai Lingyu is still alive, she has probably already gone there."

"Then what about us?"

Chen Lin tentatively inquired.

"Of course we'll go for it."

Bai Yujing's aura became sharp and fierce.

Then he looked at Chen Lin and said, "You two don't need to come with me on this adventure. There's nothing dangerous on the sixth, seventh, and eighth floors. You can search around and see if there are any treasures."

Chen Lin's expression immediately turned serious.

“My brother is in trouble, how can I stand idly by? Besides, Elder Bai has been very kind to me. Rescuing her is what I should do. I cannot back down because of difficulties.”

"Hahaha."

Bai Yujing laughed heartily.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Chen Lin revealed approval.

"it is good."

"Then let's go and see what secrets those nine underground levels hold!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

Bai Yujing slashed his sword downwards.

The barriers between the lower two levels were completely breached, and Chen Lin and the other person were sent flying down. In a flash.

They appeared in a dimly lit space.

"elder brother!"

The three had just landed when they heard a faint call.

It was Bai Lingyu.

Chen Lin looked intently in that direction.

Before them was a semi-transparent light curtain resembling ripples on water. Inside the light curtain were countless black bead pillars, some of which had a creature nailed to them with huge stone nails. Bai Lingyu was one of them.

There's also Lian Zizhang.

Both of them were exhausted.

However, they were considered to be in good condition. The other creatures had barely a breath left, and some were even in the form of corpses, with no indication of whether they still had any signs of life.

"It's good that you're alive."

Seeing Bai Lingyu's miserable state, Bai Yujing showed no anger. After saying a soft word, he began to examine the light screen in front of him.

Chen Lin also stepped forward to investigate.

They soon discovered that the light screen was nothing unusual; it was like a tangible object that could be seen but not touched, and there was nothing else special about it.

Have you noticed anything?

After watching for a while, Chen Lin used telepathy to ask the blind woman a question.

"No."

The blind woman answered immediately.

He immediately added, "But Master, be careful. I feel uneasy. There must be an incredibly powerful being behind this light barrier. You must not step in lightly."

"Ah."

Chen Linshen agreed.

Even Bai Lingyu is trapped here, so he's even less likely to succeed; forcing his way out is pointless.

Moreover, he immediately reminded Bai Yujing.

“Brother, my partner has a spiritual talent. She sensed an unknown entity behind the light screen that is difficult to fathom. Please be careful, brother.”

"Don't worry, I won't act rashly."

Bai Yujing nodded.

After examining it for a while, he stood in the position closest to Bai Lingyu, and a strange pattern flashed between his eyebrows.

Followed by.

Bai Lingyu, who was nailed to the giant pillar, trembled, and the same pattern flashed between her eyebrows.

As if empowered by some kind of energy, she instantly regained her strength, her body radiating powerful energy fluctuations as she began to writhe violently.

The stone nail that held her in place began to loosen, and it seemed as if it was about to break free.

"Om."

Just then.

All the giant pillars inside the light shield trembled, and streams of light surged from the ground, transforming into chains that firmly bound Bai Lingyu.

In an instant.

Bai Lingyu's struggles ceased, and the huge stone nail penetrated another foot or so, causing her to let out a painful groan.

"Humph!"

Bai Yujing spoke in a cold voice.

Then, streaks of sword light emanated from his body, which condensed into a white lotus flower and merged into his brow.

"Brother, no!"

Sensing Bai Yujing's actions, Bai Lingyu struggled violently once again.

Bai Yujing ignored him.

His aura grew stronger and stronger, and the white lotus between his brows became brighter and brighter, finally bursting out with a ball of white light that enveloped it.

At the same time.

A blinding white light also erupted from Bai Lingyu's body.

After the light dissipated, the person nailed to the giant pillar had become Bai Yujing, while Bai Lingyu was outside the light barrier.

Transposition?

Chen Lin watched this scene in astonishment.

The two not only switched positions, but also their physical states. Bai Yujing was now weak, while Bai Lingyu was completely unharmed.

The wounds from the giant nails had all disappeared.

Elder Bai, how are you?

Chen Lin immediately realized what was happening and flew forward to check.

He remained silent to himself.

Bai Yujing was too impulsive. Even if he was eager to save people, he shouldn't have used such a method. Wasn't he just crippling himself?

Bai Lingyu also looked anxious.

They quickly reached the light shield and prepared to rush inside again.

"Elder Bai, you mustn't!"

Chen Lin hurriedly stopped him.

If the other party goes in and gets trapped, it will be a complete disaster, and he and the blind girl will probably have no hope of survival.

However, Bai Lingyu still retained her rationality. She stopped as soon as she reached the light barrier, and then sword light surged around her, as if she was about to use the same method as Bai Yujing.

"Don't waste the source."

Bai Yujing's voice rang out.

Followed by.

His aura began to recover, and a small white sword flew out from between his eyebrows. With a gentle turn, it severed the chains around him.

He then slashed at the stone nail in his chest.

Just as Chen Lin's expression relaxed slightly, the giant pillar in the entire space trembled again.

It was even more intense than before.

Almost instantly, all the creatures nailed to the giant pillar were sucked dry and turned into mummies.

The giant pillar was filled with energy.

It emitted a series of chilling buzzing sounds, and then it actually came to life, transforming into strange creatures, each with a huge hole in its chest, from which strange symbols flashed continuously.

These strange creatures formed a mysterious connection in a peculiar way, coalescing into an invisible sealing array that trapped Bai Yujing in the center.

"The Mantra of One Hundred Sons in Harmony?"

Bai Yujing's usually calm expression finally changed.

She exclaimed in surprise, "It's you, Ye Wangxiao!"

"Hahaha……"

A burst of hearty laughter echoed from the depths of the space.

Then came the sound of chains scraping against the ground, and a tall figure draped in a black cloak emerged from the darkness.

"Bai Yujing, it's been a long time."

The tall figure looked at Bai Yujing and spoke with a half-smile.

The moment this person appeared, Chen Lin felt his hair stand on end. Even though the other party wasn't targeting him, it gave him a feeling of impending death.

Moreover, their will was suppressed so tightly that even their indomitable spirit could not break through, and they could not muster the slightest thought of resistance.

High-level Overlord!

Chen Lin's heart pounded wildly.

This unknown entity must undoubtedly be a high-level ruler, and not just any level seven or eight, but definitely level nine.

The pinnacle of cultivation in this realm!

He immediately looked at Bai Lingyu. Bai Yujing was now sealed by the magic array, so he could only rely on her. His and the blind girl's cultivation levels were not high enough.

However, after just one glance, Chen Lin's heart sank.

Bai Lingyu's face was filled with fear, as if she had seen something unbelievable, but she did not make any move to resist.

Given the opponent's cultivation level, they wouldn't normally act this way. They must know the gap between them and that resistance is pointless.

"It really is you."

Bai Yujing looked at the tall figure.

A soft sigh.

"It seems this was all your doing."

"My sister's ability to come here, and my ability to use my innate supernatural powers to switch states, were all part of your plan."

"You've hidden yourself quite well, managing to hide here. No wonder I couldn't sense even the slightest trace of you."

"hehe."

The tall man smiled.

He looked slightly embarrassed and said, "There's nothing I can do. You, Bai Yujing, are too strong. If I don't fake my death to escape and hide, how could you possibly let me go?"

"However, all these years of forbearance have been worthwhile."

His tone immediately turned cold.

"As long as I can kill you, even if it means remaining dormant for hundreds of thousands of years, I will have no complaints!" (End of Chapter)
