Mortals: Practice the Three Thousand Great Ways to Gain Eternal Life

Chapter 89 Xin Ruyin's Opportunity
Holy Mountain Cave
"Congratulations to Brother Lin for successfully refining his life magic weapon!"

As soon as Xin Ruyin, who had just come out of retreat and arrived at the cave hall, saw Lin Shou, she smiled and congratulated him.

"After spending so many years, I finally succeeded in refining it. But Ruyin, you also have to hurry up and refine your own magic weapon. What do you think about your own magic weapon?"

Lin Shou asked with a smile.

"I want to refine a set of natal formations that are similar to Brother Lin's sword formation, but it is mainly based on formation tools. Moreover, this is also in line with my identity as a formation master."

Hearing this, Xin Ruyin thought about it and then expressed her idea of ​​refining her own magic weapon.

After all, given the relationship between Lin Shou and her, there was no need to hide such things.

"This is a good natal formation. If you need anything, just ask. I will help."

After listening to Xin Ruyin's words, Lin Shou nodded and promised.

In fact, his natal magic weapon, the Qingdi Ten Thousand Woods Sword Formation, is also a set of formations.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Xin Ruyin was refining her own natal formation.

"Then I would like to thank Brother Lin in advance."

Xin Ruyin didn't hesitate to express her gratitude.

"There's no need to be polite between you and me. When the time comes, just give me a list of materials."

Lin Shou chuckled.

"By the way, since Brother Lin has come out of seclusion, I have something I'd like you to look at."

Seeing this, Xin Ruyin flipped her jade hand, and suddenly, a thumb-sized white pearl appeared in her hand.

"This is?"

Seeing this scene, Lin Shou raised his eyebrows and asked, his face full of curiosity.

"Brother Lin, just inject some spiritual energy into it and you'll know."

Xin Ruyin smiled mysteriously.

"it is good."

Hearing this, Lin Shou didn't think much about it. He directly took the pearl and injected a trace of spiritual power into it.

Then, a dazzling white light enveloped his entire face, but this had no effect on the immortal cultivator.

After a moment, Lin Shou's expression turned strange.

That's right, inside the pearl is a map of ancient ruins.

Although I'm not sure if it's Master Xuan Gu or Xiao Qia, but it's probably correct.

Moreover, even if it isn’t, it doesn’t matter to Lin Shou.

Anyway, this is also a great opportunity.

"What do you think, Brother Lin?"

Xin Ruyin smiled sweetly and asked.

"This is a good opportunity, but, besides you, there should be other Taoist friends who also know about this, right?"

How, Lin Shou asked again.

"I can't hide it from Brother Lin. In addition to my younger sister, Sister Miaoyin also knows about this. Moreover, she and I each have a copy of the ruins map, and we have been studying it all this time. If Brother Lin doesn't come out of seclusion, we will set off in a few days."

Xin Ruyin nodded slightly and replied.

"I see. You are really lucky. I am planning to let you go together."

Lin Shou confirmed it again.

"Yes, with Brother Lin's help, our chances of obtaining the treasures from the ruins will naturally be greater. Moreover, we can promise to give one third of them to Brother Lin as a reward."

Xin Ruyin promised.

She knew Lin Shou's magical powers better than anyone else, so naturally she wanted Lin Shou's help.

As for one third, it’s nothing.

"Okay, when do we leave?"

Hearing this, Lin Shou asked.

"Ten days later, I still have some things to prepare."

Xin Ruyin replied.

"Okay, then ten days later."

Lin Shou nodded slightly and had no opinion.

"Then I would like to thank Brother Lin in advance."

Xin Ruyin smiled brightly again and said.

"Ruyin, you're welcome."

Afterwards, the two discussed the specific plan, and Lin Shou finally felt relieved.

However, in the following period of time, Lin Shou did not leave Xin Ruyin's cave, but stayed.

Although Xin Ruyin was busy with the affairs of the ancient monks' ruins, she had Xiaomei to serve her, so she was not too lonely.

……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.

When the time came, Lin Shou and Xin Ruyin left the Holy Mountain Cave and headed for the ancient monks' ruins outside Tianxing City.

As for Xiaomei, she stayed to look after the store, which is also one of Xiaomei's daily jobs.

……

It took Xin Ruyin and Lin Shou more than a month to reach their destination.

A very remote island. It is very large, with a radius of more than a thousand miles. However, the island is mostly made up of hills and slopes. At a glance, it is gray and yellow everywhere.

"Let's go, Sister Miaoyin is still waiting for us."

As soon as they entered the island, Xin Ruyin led Lin Shou towards their destination.

This is a yellowish-brown mountain, about a thousand feet high. It is completely yellowish-brown without a trace of green, giving people an extremely uncomfortable feeling, as if the entire mountain is made of yellow earth.

"It's really weird."

Seeing the high mountains in front of him, Lin Shou was basically certain that it was indeed the sealed remains of Master Xuan Gu Xiao Cha in his memory.

Although there aren't many good things in it, there are still some good things.

For example, the treasures made from the golden thunder bamboo of Master Xuan Gu Xiao Cai, the incomplete map of the virtual sky and other good things.

However, as soon as we approached the mountain, a strong wind blew and sand and rocks flew everywhere.

The boundless strong wind blew up a layer of yellow soil on the ground, making the surrounding area immediately dark and pitch dark.

As for these, Xin Ruyin and Lin Shou, who were Jindan stage cultivators, were naturally not affected at all and soon landed in front of a stone house.

As soon as they landed, a graceful and familiar figure walked out of the stone house.

It was none other than Zhou Yuan, the current leader of Miaoyin Sect.

Zhou Yuan is now a cultivator at the peak of the middle stage of the Jindan period, and naturally she cannot do this without Lin Shou’s help.

Whether it was the gift of the elixir or the dual cultivation with it, Zhou Yuan gained tremendous benefits.

That’s right, Lin Shou and Zhou Yuan started practicing dual cultivation together the second year after Wang Heng passed away, and Zhou Yuan also benefited greatly from it, successfully breaking through the middle stage of Jindan.
Over the years, with the help of Lin Shou, he has made rapid progress and reached the peak of the middle stage of Jindan. However, whether he can break through to the late stage of Jindan depends on how many good things he can get this time.

When Zhou Yuan saw Lin Shou and Xin Ruyin coming together, she was surprised and happy, but her eyes were somewhat complicated.

She and Xin Ruyin were naturally close friends, and Xin Ruyin's attainments in formations were of great help to her and the Miaoyin Sect.

But both of them have a close relationship with Lin Shou, and even what was supposed to happen has happened.

As soon as Zhou Yuan saw Lin Shou and Xin Ruyin together, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. Lin Shou had never agreed to become his Taoist partner.

This is also where Zhou Yuan feels uncomfortable and resentful.

After all, compared to Wang Heng who has already passed away, Lin Shou is definitely the best choice for a Taoist companion. "Brother Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. It seems that your life treasure has been successfully refined. Congratulations, Brother Lin. This will increase our chances of obtaining treasures from this ancient ruins."

After calming down, Zhou Yuan bowed to Lin Shou.

"You're too polite, Sister Yuan. Nothing happened these days, right?"

Lin Shou asked.

If he remembered correctly, there was an ugly man in the Jindan stage here.

"No, there is no one here. I am alone these days."

Hearing Lin Shou's question, Zhou Yuan shook her head slightly.

"That's great. Let's go! Take us to have a look!"

Lin Shou nodded and smiled.

"Okay, Brother Lin, Ruyin, come with me!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan naturally would not refuse and immediately led the way.

Soon, Lin Shou saw the destination.

It was a ball of yellow fog with a radius of about a mile. At the moment, it was crouching like a huge monster. It was muddy, heavy and silent, giving people an unfathomable and weird feeling.

"It really is somewhat strange. Ruyin is sure of it."

Seeing this scene, Lin Shou looked at Xin Ruyin with a smile and asked.

"Of course, no problem. Just leave it to me."

Xin Ruyin smiled brightly and said confidently.

As a formation master, and one of the most famous formation masters in the entire Tianxing City, although the formation before her was a bit troublesome, she had already researched a solution.

Afterwards, Xin Ruyin didn't waste any words. He simply slapped his storage bag and took out a bunch of formation flags, formation plates and other formation tools. Then, he began to break the formation.

Xin Ruyin is best at breaking formations, that is, using formations to break formations.

This method is extremely rare, and there are only a few cultivators in the entire Tianxing City who can use this method to break the formation.

As Xin Ruyin was breaking the formation, Lin Shou and Zhou Yuan stayed obediently by the side, waiting for Xin Ruyin to finish breaking the formation.

The two of them would not help because it might affect Xin Ruyin's ability to break the formation in front of her.

"Boom!"

As explosions sounded one after another, the yellow fog rapidly expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally exploded with a loud bang amid a sudden earthquake.

The first level of the formation was successfully broken!
"Sister Ruyin is really amazing. She broke the formation so quickly."

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yuan's pretty face showed surprise.

After all, she had tried to break the formation many times during the time she was waiting, but she failed every time and almost got injured.

This is enough to prove how difficult it is to break this formation, but Xin Ruyin broke it in less than a moment. You can imagine how huge the gap is.

"Sister Miaoyin is joking. This is just the beginning. The formations and restrictions that follow will not be easy."

Xin Ruyin smiled sweetly.

"It's okay. We have plenty of time to break these formations. There's no need to rush."

Lin Shou also chuckled.

If nothing unexpected happens, the old monster Jiyin should still be practicing the Tiandu Corpse Fire. Therefore, even if that ugly Jindan stage cultivator finds him and comes to him, he will only be seeking his death.

Lin Shou was not worried at all. As long as the old monster Ji Yin didn't come to him on his own initiative, there would be no big problem.

Moreover, the old monster Ji Yin couldn't arrive in a short time.

After all, this place is too remote. Therefore, Lin Shou really doesn't need to worry too much.

"Brother Lin is right. Sister Ruyin, just slowly break through it. We have plenty of time."

Zhou Yuan also echoed.

After all, breaking the formation could only be left to Xin Ruyin. If she could break it, she would have done it long ago.

"Okay, then Sister and Brother Lin will wait for a few more days."

Hearing what Lin Shou and Zhou Yuan said, Xin Ruyin nodded slightly.

Afterwards, he continued to study the next formation restriction and thought about how to break it.

As for Lin Shou and Zhou Yuan, if Xin Ruyin didn't ask them for help, they would not help.

Zhou Yuan was naturally not idle either, and patrolled around the island.

Although this place is extremely remote, we still need to be extra careful just in case.

To avoid any accidents!
Naturally, Lin Shou would have no objection to this!
And so, half a month passed.

On this day, the scene ahead of them had changed drastically.

First, the color of the light shield changed into the color of red flames, and released scorching heat. More importantly, the colorful light bands in the wall of the light shield turned into countless winged fire snakes, which climbed and swam everywhere on the wall of the shield, constantly spitting out thin flames.

"What is this?"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yuan frowned slightly and said.

"This... this should be a winged spirit! This kind of monster can only be born in the Sanyang Land. Its lifespan is not long, and most of them only live for a few hours. However, the demonic fire they can naturally spit out is comparable to the elixir fire of a cultivator in the Jindan stage. At the same time, they like to devour the souls of mortals and the spirits of immortal cultivators the most."

Lin Shou thought about the relevant information and said.

"Well! Now, as long as we open this shield and kill these winged spirits, we can almost completely open this ancient ruins."

The tiredness on Xin Ruyin's face also disappeared for the most part.

"Then I'll have to trouble you a little longer, Ruyin."

Lin Shou nodded and smiled.

"This still requires the help of Brother Lin and Sister Miaoyin."

Hearing this, Xin Ruyin said again.

"Okay, what do you say?"

Lin Shou was not surprised by Xin Ruyin's words. He and Zhou Yuan had indeed helped a lot during this period.

Moreover, during this period, he, Xin Ruyin and Zhou Yuan also practiced together from time to time, allowing Lin Shou to truly enjoy the attentive service of the two women.

It can be said that he was extremely comfortable and relaxed. If it were not for the place where Master Xuan Gu Xiao Cha was sealed, Lin Shou would really have felt that he had been reluctant to leave.

"I need a few top-level water-attributed magical instruments. Only with them can I be sure to break the restriction before me."

Xin Ruyin opened her mouth softly and stated her request.

"A top-level water-attributed magical weapon. There is naturally no problem with this."

Hearing this, Lin Shou nodded and agreed.

As for this kind of top-level magical weapon, he said that there would be no problem in refining it on the spot.

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Lin."

Xin Ruyin said with a sweet smile.

Then, Lin Shou took out five top-level water-attributed magical weapons and handed them to Xin Ruyin.

Xin Ruyin began to set up the formation, preparing to break the fire-attributed formation restriction in front of her.

In response to this, Zhou Yuan naturally watched obediently, waiting for Xin Ruyin to break the formation in front of her, and then take action to kill all the fire-attributed winged spirits in it.

Of course, Lin Shou would also take action. For him, these were completely easy things.

They are just a group of winged monsters and cannot pose any threat at all.

but!

Lin Shou raised his eyebrows and looked towards the distant sky.

Trouble is coming!
