Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 421 Canglan Imperial Decree
Chen Mu's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a steady tone, "Chen is a little special."

"Oh?" Jin Yuantong and the other two were not so easily fooled and asked directly, "What's so special?"

Chen Mu didn't say anything, but his mind moved, and the murderous characters hidden deep in his sea of ​​consciousness suddenly lit up.

The next moment, the area around the three of them suddenly darkened. Before Jin Yuantong and Ao Chun could react, a dark murderous intent flashed by and penetrated their sea of ​​consciousness.

"Be bold!"

Although Ao Chun's realm was not as high as Jin Yuantong's, his reaction was much faster than his. He cast a spell to resist almost the moment the murderous intent appeared, and at the same time, he shouted.

"Oh!"

The murderous intent came to an abrupt end, firmly blocked by a white light shield.

Jin Yuantong was not so lucky. He was accidentally filled with murderous intent that rushed into his sea of ​​consciousness. However, after just a moment, the murderous intent dissipated on its own and did not cause any harm to him.

"Can you two feel it?"

After a moment, Jin Yuantong suppressed the chill in his heart and said uncertainly, "Is this murderous intent?"

Ao Chun also reacted and waved his hand to disperse the white light shield.

Chen Mu nodded and said, "In my early years of cultivation, I accidentally entered a secret abode and was infected with this murderous intent. I went against the will of heaven and could not escape... The thunder tribulation just now was driven by murderous intent."

As soon as these words were spoken, Jin Yuantong and the other man looked at each other, and both saw suspicion in each other's eyes.

Chen Mu remained unmoved, simply because he was not lying.

When he was going through the tribulation just now, he could clearly feel that some of the thunder was heading towards the murderous characters deep in his sea of ​​consciousness.

From this we can see that the Killing Path is also qualified to be chosen by the Thunder Tribulation.

Jin Yuantong turned his gaze away, and his contempt for Chen Mu gradually faded away.

He almost didn't react to the attack just now...

"Hehehe..." Ao Chun also suppressed his doubts and chuckled softly, saying, "Fellow Daoist Chen's killing intent is quite good. This is an opportunity to gain the Dao. Why would he seek a way to escape?"

Chen Mu shook his head without explaining.

Ao Chun's eyes flickered as he continued, "The East China Sea stretches across billions of territory, and for the three of us to meet here, it's clear we have a deep connection... Fellow Daoist Chen, why don't you come with us to the cave for a reunion?"

After saying that, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Jin Yuantong, indicating that he should agree with her.

Jin Yuantong reacted and immediately laughed out loud, saying, "Yes, Fellow Daoist Chen, I love making friends and drinking and chatting the most in my life. Now that you have embarked on the Golden Elixir Path and are returning home with my husband and me, I will definitely celebrate for you!"

Chen Mu smiled in his heart, but naturally would not agree.

"Mr. Chen thanks you both for your kindness, but my spiritual breakthrough has only just begun, and I still need to return to the mountain to consolidate my realm, so..."

"Hey, fellow Daoist, what are you talking about? After entering my cave, do you still need to worry about the instability of your realm?" Ao Chun interrupted and took out something.

It was actually a fist-sized red round bead, with wisps of smoke drifting away, and one could vaguely feel the amazing spiritual energy contained in it.

"This is the Soul-Yun Pearl. It was originally presented by the Clam Clan, and later given to me by my father...

This item doesn't do much for me, but for fellow Taoists, it shouldn't be a mundane item, right?"

Ao Chun's beautiful eyes were filled with charm, and she frequently looked at Chen Mu.

Chen Mu's expression faltered for a moment. He glanced at Jin Yuantong in confusion, then shook his head and replied, "Princess, I appreciate your kindness..."

He could see that the crimson round bead was indeed extremely precious, and the spiritual energy contained within it was as deep as the sea.

If his guess was correct, the spiritual energy within this bead could be transformed into magic power in an instant, which would be of great help to the cultivators in their practice and fighting.

But the more he was invited, the more cautious he became.

There is no free lunch in the world, and he didn't believe that Ao Chun and the others were really such hospitable people.

A mere spirit bead wasn't worth the unknown risk. Seeing that he still declined, Ao Chun couldn't help but frown.

I subconsciously glanced at Jin Yuantong, but saw him shaking his head very obscurely.

That was to stop her from taking action to suppress the thought...

At the Jindan level, if there is no absolute difference in strength, almost no one can capture the opponent in an instant.

She felt a chill in her heart and looked down upon Jin Yuantong.

Even though he was in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, he was not sure he could subdue a human cultivator who had just broken through.

Although Jin Yuantong didn't know what she was thinking, he could tell from her expression that she was dissatisfied. So after pondering for a few breaths, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Fellow Daoist Chen, are you a water-type Jindan cultivator?"

However, he sensed the rich water-based spiritual energy remaining here.

Chen Mu nodded. This point could not be hidden.

Jin Yuantong laughed and took out an exquisite lake blue token with two ancient characters faintly written on it.

Chen Mu looked carefully and recognized the two words "Canglan".

"Fellow Daoist Chen, to be honest, Mr. Jin and his wife passed by here to attend a banquet... This banquet is a bit special. Everyone needs to bring a young talent, and then they will compete to decide the winner..." Jin Yuantong talked freely and explained to Chen Mu what he wanted.

Ao Chun's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and this time he looked at Jin Yuantong with admiration, and continued, "We two came here in a hurry, so we didn't choose the right person... Fortunately, we met Fellow Daoist Chen, could you help me..."

"No need to compete for the first place, just come with us." Jin Yuantong seemed not to hear her coquettish voice and said, "If you agree, I will give you this Canglan Imperial Order. How about it?"

"Fellow Daoist, do you know about this decree? It will be of great benefit to water cultivators..."

"Canglan Decree?" Chen Mu had never heard of this thing, but he thought it should not be an ordinary thing, otherwise it would not be taken out as a bargaining chip.

"Chen is very distraught, so please, fellow Taoists..."

Before he could finish his words of refusal, his expression suddenly froze. After a few pauses, he glanced at Canglan's order imperceptibly.

"Since you two Daoists have invited me like this, I can't refuse you again and again. Well, I'll go with you!"

The change was so swift that Ao Chun and the other two were stunned for a moment. After a few breaths, they finally reacted and nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen. Please come in!"

Chen Mu nodded and followed the two of them onto the crimson spirit boat.

Jin Yuantong and Ao Chun smiled at each other, waved their hands to collect the scattered wine glasses, and then put them back on the table.

They weren't curious about why Chen Mu suddenly changed his mind, but were looking forward to the upcoming banquet...

"Fellow Daoist Chen, I offer you a toast!"

……

The three of them each had their own thoughts, and they clinked glasses, talking and laughing.

After several hours, they gradually lost interest in talking and sat cross-legged in two places to regulate their breathing.

Looking at the remaining clouds in the sky, Chen Mu frowned slightly, and Canglan's decree flashed through his mind from time to time.

The reason why he changed his mind was because of the Canglan Imperial Decree.

At first he didn't realize anything, so he decisively declined.

But when he probed with his soul, the shadow of the water palace in the golden elixir suddenly lit up, as if it was extremely longing for the Canglan Decree.

The Water Palace's phantom was the result of his own innate magical power. The fact that the Canglan Imperial Order could cause it to change must have been extremely helpful in cultivating his magical power...

As for the fight that Jin Yuantong and the other two talked about, he put himself in their shoes and thought it was seven parts true and three parts false.

The duel might be true, but why the duel... shouldn't be as simple as it is said.
