I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

After Leng Yue finished counting the treasures, she selected nine important ones.

Besides the three treasures of the cave, there was also a short sword, a blue flying sword, a bottle of spiritual liquid, a pill, a soft armor, and an invisible treasure.

The rest were all beneath Chen Lin's notice.

Although he possessed many supreme-level treasures and rare materials, they were no longer sufficient for him, so he distributed them all to everyone.

of course.

It's not that the Feng family has few treasures.

After the battle, Chen Lin had already collected all the important treasures he had seen, such as the red jade, the folding fan and flying sword of the Feng family patriarch, and the withered god vine.

These were selected again.

Before inspecting the treasures of the cave, Chen Lin first looked at the six treasures.

The first thing he picked up was the invisible treasure. Now he didn't need to use his mental power; he could make it manifest directly with his soul power.

It's a peculiar thing, shaped like a bird's nest, black and white, and you can't tell what it's for.

I studied it for a while.

Chen Lin tried using soul power to activate it.

It was unsuccessful.

Then I tried using mind energy, rune power, etc., but none of them worked.

"Who found this?"

Chen Lin looked at Xiaocao and the blind girl. Only the three of them had collected the spoils, so it certainly wasn't his own.

"it's me."

The blind woman answered aloud.

Then, through telepathy, he said, "This item was also placed in the Feng family's ancestral land, but in a corner. If it weren't for my enhanced telepathic perception after my talent was upgraded, I wouldn't have been able to find it."

"besides."

"This thing looks a lot like a legendary item from the Heart Realm. Master should pay close attention to it."

"What is it?"

Chen Lin asked in surprise.

The room was filled with his close friends and family, and they were still using the telepathic communication device so carefully; it seemed this device was truly extraordinary.

"It's called the Spirit-Guiding Nest."

"Its function is to attract special beings, and these are beings from other worlds. Legend has it that one can obtain great benefits from them, and even high-level rulers would covet them."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed.

He then asked, "Do you know how to use it?"

"No need to activate it, just place it somewhere. Whoever places it will attract creatures that will have a natural affinity for that person. However, it cannot be touched by others. Once it is touched, it will be considered that someone else placed it."

"I see."

Chen Lin was secretly amazed.

However, he doesn't have the energy to deal with this item right now, so he can only store it in his cave for now and see how things go after the Ascension Trial ends.

then.

He picked up the dagger again.

It is entirely black and is a treasure of the Feng family's first-order overlord, so its power is extraordinary.

But he doesn't need it.

"Whoever can use this can take it. It might save their lives during the Ascension Trial. If none of you can use it, then Leng Yue can keep it and sell it to exchange for supplies."

He gave some instructions.

Chen Lin checked the remaining items one by one.

The Azure Flying Sword was the natal flying sword of the other first-tier ruler, and its level was even higher than that of the short sword, but he still didn't need it. The same was true for Little Grass and the Blind Girl. Although the three of them cultivated swords, they were all supernatural beings and did not need physical treasures.

Set aside.

Then he picked up the bottle containing the elixir.

After activating the sensor, Chen Lin was immediately delighted.

This spiritual liquid is also refined from rare and precious materials, and it is no weaker than the Beauty Finger Juice. You don't even need to try it; just the aura it emits is enough to activate the essence of your heart.

"good."

Chen Lin gave a satisfied compliment and put the spiritual liquid into his sleeve.

Although Qingtian could draw blood, the other party was, after all, a special deity, and using it too much would inevitably have hidden dangers. He even suspected that the other party had some ulterior motive in taking the initiative to ask him to draw blood.

The divine system of this world employs very sinister methods.

Therefore, use it as little as possible.

"what?"

Chen Lin opened the jade box containing the pills and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation.

Putting everything else aside, the shape of this pill is eye-catching enough. It is shaped like a grape and is composed of several small pills connected by a glowing ring in the middle.

Surprisingly, it didn't fall apart when I picked it up.

"Does anyone know him?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Seeing this, Chen Lin had no choice but to put it back into the jade box.

He didn't recognize it either, but something so unique must be extraordinary; he would study it slowly later.

There's also soft armor.

His level wasn't low either, at least with the defensive power of a third-tier overlord, but he didn't need it because the soft armor worn by the Feng family patriarch was in his hands, and its defensive power reached the fourth tier of overlord.

pity.

The power level of the God-Slaying Seal was too high, and its attack method was unique, so the soft armor had no effect.

Chen Lin also handed it over to Leng Yue, letting them choose how to allocate it.

At last.

Begin inspecting the three treasure caves.

"You may all leave, except for Xiaocao and the blind girl."

For safety reasons, Chen Lin dismissed Leng Yue and the others, leaving only Xiao Cao and the blind girl behind.

The treasures of the grotto-heavens can be large or small, some as large as a small world, and anything is possible inside them. It's not impossible that even the ancestor of the Feng family is inside.

We must be careful.

First, check your purse.

This item belongs to Zhao Qianming. Although he is a second-level Dominator, he does not have his own power. Instead, he is worshipped by several large families. The treasures should all be in the cave.

The purse was only the size of a palm.

It is very delicate, with cloud patterns embroidered on it, clearly belonging to a female cultivator.

But that's not surprising.

High-level treasures from the grottoes are rare; obtaining even one is already quite good, and there's no way to choose their appearance.

Activate the energy of the mind to remove the marks on it.

First, he made thorough preparations, then probed into it with his soul, and Chen Lin immediately showed a look of disappointment.

The space inside is not very large.

It was smaller than his Jade Pendant and didn't contain any particularly special treasures, but it had planted many rare spiritual plants and raised a few spirit beasts.

It's quite valuable.

But it's of no use to him now.

but.

It's big enough to store the Optimus Prime doll.

Chen Lin cleaned out all the spirit beasts inside. Although these spirit beasts were rare, they had all been recognized by a master, so there was not much point in continuing to keep them.

then.

He began to examine the white jade pot.

This item belongs to Feng Qing, and it seems to be of a high grade. It's only about the size of a baby's fist, making it easy to carry.

I thought about it.

Chen Lin still set up a defensive formation and wrapped the white jade pot with the energy of the green heart aperture to ensure that it would be able to defend itself even if there was danger, before he began to erase the mark on it.

Very stubborn.

It took a full incense stick's time to remove the brand.

The soul probed into it.

a long time.

Chen Lin's eyes flickered as he withdrew his spiritual power.

"Ugh!"

He sighed.

"what happened?"

The blind girl sensed that Chen Lin seemed to be in a bad mood, and asked him in surprise.

"It's nothing, I just did some things I didn't really want to do, but I had to, and it didn't feel good."

The blind girl's eyelashes trembled slightly.

I didn't ask any more questions.

She could guess some of it. There must be family members or disciples that Feng Qing had placed in the cave, and there must be quite a few of them. Based on her understanding of Chen Lin, Chen Lin had always been unwilling to commit too many killings, let alone involve innocent people.

"If the master needs to kill someone in the future, he can let Little Grass do it."

Little Grass spoke coldly from the side.

She knew Chen Lin better than anyone else, and knew the reason without even guessing.

Chen Lin shook his head.

"There's no need to bury my head in the sand. I'm not a merciful person either; my hands have long been stained with blood."

After saying that, he didn't think about it anymore.

Pick up the last golden bag.

"Let me drive this one. Master, you can stay by my side and protect me. It will be safer that way."

The blind woman offered her advice.

Chen Lin shook his head again.

"It's alright. Since I was able to kill him, I'm not afraid of any tricks he might have up his sleeve. Your cultivation level is still low, and you won't be able to react in time if something unexpected happens."

That being said...

But Chen Lin did not act rashly.

No matter what, the Feng family is a powerful family with a long history. The treasure of the cave that the patriarch personally carried could contain anything. Moreover, the golden pouch gave him a very unusual feeling. Perhaps the Feng family patriarch was hiding inside, waiting to deliver a fatal blow.

He picked up the God-Slaying Staff.

After drinking a portion of the divine blood that could support the heavens, the God-Slaying Seal on it was activated.

A slight tremor.

The mark detached from the stick and landed on the opening of the golden pocket. The original branding instantly disappeared, and the mark flew into the pocket through the opening.

Chen Lin then used the connection between the Extinction God Stick and the marking pattern to examine the situation inside the cave.

Golden light!

The entire interior of the pocket was filled with golden light. Even the God-Slaying Seal could only suppress a small area, unable to allow the senses to cover the entire space.

This situation caused Chen Lin to frown slightly.

It is clear.

This is not a normal treasure found in a grotto; it must have some special purpose.

Thinking of this, he immediately increased the supply of his heart's essence and manipulated the God-Slaying Seal to move within the space. No matter what, he had to figure out the situation, otherwise he would not be at ease.

About half an hour later.

Chen Lin used up another bottle of divine blood and finally finished exploring the cave. He immediately put the God-Slaying Seal back into his staff.

A thoughtful expression that shifted between different directions.

The cave was quite large, spanning at least tens of thousands of miles, but there was no ancestor of the Feng family, or anything else at all. The only object in the entire space was an irregularly shaped object about the size of a human head.

This object is suspended in the very center, slowly rotating continuously, and the golden light emanating from it is from this object.

In other words.

This entire treasure trove was used to house this object.

It's very likely that this bag wasn't originally gold, but rather it was eroded by the golden light inside, which is why it looks the way it does now.

What's inside?

Seeing that Chen Lin remained silent for a long time, the blind girl couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. There was only her and Xiao Cao in the room now, so there was nothing to hide.

"A luminous object."

Chen Lin stretched out his finger, trying to use his magic to outline the object, but was surprised to find that the image could not be displayed!
immediately.

He then took out paper and pen and began to draw directly.

But it still didn't work.

If you try to restore the shape of that thing, you will be controlled by some unseen force and will be unable to complete the task.

"Humph!"

Chen Lin snorted coldly.

With a wave of his hand, he took out a silver brush and an inkstone, and then used divine blood as ink to try painting.

however.

There is still a strong sense of stagnation. Although it can be completed by force, the drawn pattern is extremely distorted and has no spirituality whatsoever.

He raised an eyebrow.

He then picked up the God-Slaying Staff, shrunk it, and used it as a paperweight to press down on the talisman paper used to draw the Bird-Head Talisman, and began drawing again.

This time it finally worked.

The spirituality was still very weak, but it was enough to reveal the characteristics of that thing, allowing people to sense it directly.

But after the blind girl and Xiaocao looked at it, they both shook their heads.

"Never seen it before."

"I've never seen it either."

The two women raised their heads but did not offer any further comments.

At this time.

The blind woman suddenly paused.

"what?"

"Is this thing so wondrous? In such a short time, I've actually forgotten what it looks like. Could it be some kind of special treasure?"

"I forgot too."

The little grass immediately looked at the pattern on the talisman.

At this time.

The pattern gradually faded and disappeared in no time.

Chen Lin took a deep breath.

It seems that even if the power of the God-Slaying Staff is used to suppress it, the painting cannot be preserved for long unless the God-Slaying Seal is used. However, it would be unwise to overdraw one's heart's essence for the sake of painting.

"okay."

He packed everything away.

"If I can't remember, I can't remember. Since it has such an effect, even if I've seen it before, I'll just study it myself slowly. Now we need to think about how to find the Feng family patriarch."

There's no need to worry about Zhao Qianming.

Although the other party is a retainer of several major families, none of these families have a powerful ruler. They are the ones who should be worried. They will probably come to apologize and sever ties with the other party after receiving the information, even if they don't run away.

The main issue is the Feng family.

If this old ancestor isn't dealt with, he'll definitely be a major threat.

However, neither the blind girl nor Xiaocao were good at tracking, so they couldn't offer any good advice and could only shake their heads in silence.

Upon seeing this.

Chen Lin's eyes flickered.

He said in a deep voice, "If all else fails, I will create a divination array and try to divine the outcome. If we still cannot find the other party, you will have to find a place to hide or enter the cave to wait for the Ascension Trial to begin."

"Master, should we contact the Ning family?"

The blind woman suddenly spoke.

Chen Lin was taken aback.

He then tapped the table lightly twice and nodded, saying, "I had forgotten about that. But logically speaking, the Feng family has been wiped out for so long, they should have come looking for me on their own."

The voice just fell.

The communication jade talisman in the room lit up, and Leng Yue's voice appeared: "Master Ning Yu from the Ning family, and Master Yue's wife request an audience."

Chen Lin was somewhat surprised.

The fact that these two people arrived at the same time is probably not a coincidence. Could it be that Yue Bingling has been staying at the Ning family's place to avoid Feng Qing?

"Take them to the reception room."

Chen Lin stood up, gave a few instructions, and then left the cultivation room.

Inside the reception room.

The two men saw Chen Lin and stood up at the same time.

Ning Yu clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"After we parted years ago, I never imagined that Brother Chen would have reached such heights upon our reunion. It truly astonishes me!"

Yue Bingling also gave a slight bow.

"Bingling greets her husband."

When Leng Yue reported via the communication jade talisman, addressing her as "Master's Wife," she knew that Chen Lin had already acknowledged their relationship, and she continued to consider herself a Daoist couple.

Chen Lin didn't care.

The other party provided him with a pair of scepters, the help of which was immeasurable, and it was understandable that they wanted to use his name to do things.

But he still said, "Now that Feng Qing is dead, you are no longer in danger of being entangled, so you don't need to care about this identity anymore."

Yue Bingling bowed again.

She said solemnly, "Now that I have become your Daoist partner, I will naturally remain faithful to you until the end, and there will be no further changes."

"what ever."

Chen Lin gestured for the two to sit down.

He glanced at them and said, "You two came together, presumably for the Feng family matter?" (End of Chapter)
