Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

Because they lacked cultivation, they did not possess any malevolent energy within their bodies.

Three days later, Lin Zhu realized he was lost. Not only had he not left the Chongli Mountains, but he had gone even deeper into them.

Then, a feeling of hunger and thirst arose in my body.

Normally, cultivators could live on air and dew, but in this world, unless one is a Golden Immortal, even if one absorbs innate spiritual energy, one cannot avoid the most basic physiological needs.

Aqing had mentioned it before, but Lin Zhu had forgotten.

Now that I'm hungry and thirsty, I finally remembered.

With a sudden thought, he used his spiritual power to condense the surrounding water vapor.

The next moment, the innate evil energy merged into the water, turning the originally pure water grayish-black and emitting a faint odor, making it difficult to swallow.

At this moment, Lin Zhu had already materialized, and he couldn't help but erupt in anger. The suppression of cultivators in this world was far too severe.

Where do these innate malevolent energies come from?

Since condensing water in the air won't work, the only option is to collect water from the tree trunk.

Trees are natural water purifiers.

Lin Zhu leaped up and jumped onto the treetop, condensing the moisture that evaporated from the leaves.

In this way, pure water that was not affected by the innate evil energy was condensed, and then he drank his fill.

Because of his ascension, Chen Bangling prepared a lot of food for him and stored it in the storage space.

Although I couldn't connect to the chat group, the basic functions are still usable.

The storage space wasn't suppressed by the world; it's still just as big.

The aroma of the spiritual food was very strong. When Lin Zhu ate, he used his spiritual power to isolate himself from the innate evil energy, and at the same time, he also isolated the aroma.

He had a feeling about this world: the innate evil energy was like a rotten apple spoiling the whole barrel.

I heard from Aqing that unless you are a Golden Immortal, you will not only be hungry and thirsty, but you will also get sick, and you may even die from illness if you are not careful.

In addition, they must undergo a tribulation every five hundred years.

The first tribulation was struck by lightning, the second by fire, the third by wind, and so on, in a continuous cycle.

If one has accumulated merit, the calamity will be relatively less powerful. However, if one has committed too many sins or has too strong a talent, the calamity will be much more powerful.

Furthermore, the temperature of this world also affects immortals. Those below the Golden Immortal level are no longer immune to heat or cold; they experience both cold and hot conditions as they please, making them not much different from ordinary people.

Even if one cultivates the ruthless immortal path, there will still be tribulations of love to await.

Without cultivating the path of ruthlessness, one will suffer the tribulation of inner demons.

Although the lifespan of an Earth Immortal is hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, there are so many tribulations that almost no one can live to the limit of their lifespan in the Earth Immortal realm.

Lin Zhu sensed the intense malice this world held towards cultivators.

The advantage that cultivators have over ordinary people is that they can eat five sheep a day and still not be full, or they can go for several days without eating or drinking.

They don't need to eat three meals a day.

If you were in a city, you could buy fasting pills.

After walking in the mountains for another day, Lin Zhu stopped. He felt that if he continued, there would be danger ahead.

A group of demons patrolled from the distant mountain path. The leader was a leopard-headed man with a small drum at his waist, which he beat as he walked, shouting, "Patrol the mountain!"

The sound waves from the gongs and drums reverberated, and the leopard demon's ears twitched, allowing it to hear everything happening within a radius of dozens of miles.

Lin Zhu had exceptional eyesight. He saw the sound waves when the leopard demon struck the small drum, and then quickly retreated dozens of miles to avoid the sound wave detection.

He could sense that the sound waves would reveal his whereabouts.

I couldn't help but feel fortunate that I was fast enough.

That group of demons consisted of seven people. The leopard demon was at least a celestial immortal-level demon soldier, while the other six were minor demons who had only recently taken human form.

The leopard demon said to the little demons behind him, "It's windy in the mountains today, be careful."

"Yes, Captain."

Several lesser demons echoed in agreement, looking around.

If they weren't in such a dangerous situation, Lin Zhu would have really wanted to spar with that leopard demon and see if he could fight someone of a higher level.

Since the conditions weren't right, he chose a direction and headed west.

Previously, we went east, deep into the Chongli Mountains; now, going west means going far away.

This time it went smoothly. After more than ten days of walking and stopping, we finally left the mountains and saw a village.

The village was bathed in a golden light, as if protected by a god.

I heard from Aqing that there are villages under the small town, and villages are built around the villages for thousands of miles around.

There is a god protecting the village.

The Earth God and Earth Goddess, the Kitchen God, the Door Gods, the Night Wanderer, the Day Wanderer, and the Well Dragon King.

These are the lowest-ranking deities, only at the Earth Immortal realm.

Among them, the Earth God, Earth Goddess, Door Gods, and Well Dragon King are earth deities, while the Kitchen God, Day-roaming God, and Night-roaming God are heavenly deities.

Under normal circumstances, with the protection of these deities, the village will not encounter any major problems.

At the same time, each village is also guarded by martial artists.

Wealthier villages would hire martial artists at the Earth Immortal Realm, who were called Earth Martial Masters.

The realm of a Martial Master is equivalent to that of an Earth Immortal, but in terms of combat power, they surpass the Heavenly Gods, Earthly Deities, and Carefree Immortals of the same level.

Lin Zhu looked at the village from afar. It was called Chenjiazhuang, and it could be considered a paradise on earth.

He planned to go in and find out some information, so he revealed himself and walked along the path into the village, where he saw several children playing.

To them, Lin Zhu was a stranger.

Several children blocked his way. The one in the lead, who looked to be about eleven or twelve years old and was rather strong, seemed to have some martial arts skills. He shouted, "Who are you, and why have you come to my Chen Family Village?"

Chapter 677 Agreeing to Provide Guidance

Lin Zhu sensed the child's aura; his strength was comparable to that of an adult.

In this world, men reach adulthood at the age of twenty and possess the strength of a Golden Core cultivator.

In other words, this child has the strength of a Golden Core cultivator at the age of eleven or twelve, and should be able to break through to the Human Martial Artist realm in the future, which is the stage from Nascent Soul to Mahayana.

"My name is Lin Zhu. I'm here to see the adults in your village. Could you take me there?"

He had a smile on his face, spoke gently, and was good-looking.

One of the little girls said, "Brother Da Niu, this big brother is so handsome. He shouldn't be a bad person. Let's take him into the village. It's getting dark."

“No.” Da Niu shook his head. “Er Ya, don’t forget, the village head said that strangers cannot be allowed into the village. Who knows if he is a demon or evil spirit in disguise?”

He stood in front, protecting the group of children, and said to Lin Zhu, "I can't take you into the village, but I can send someone to fetch the adults. You'll have to wait."

"Okay." Lin Zhu nodded with a smile, feeling that this kid named Da Niu had a very good aptitude.

Da Niu turned his head and said, "Er Gou, go and call Uncle San Jin out."

"Okay, Brother Niu," Er Gou replied, then took off running into the village.

Lin Zhu thought that since this place was called Chenjiazhuang, Er Gou should be named Chen Er Gou.

He couldn't help but think to himself, 'The name Er Gou is way too common; I really want to erase it from this world.'

After Er Gou left, Da Niu asked, "Outsider, where are you from?"

Lin Zhu chuckled mischievously and pointed in the direction of the Chongli Mountains, "Just came from there."

Da Niu was startled. Looking at the fairly strong sunlight, his muscles tensed up as he said, "An ordinary person couldn't possibly come out of the mountains unharmed. Who are you?"

"Don't worry, I'm not a demon." Lin Zhu still spoke gently. "If I were a demon, I wouldn't be able to get close to your Chen Family Village."

Da Niu was skeptical. "Really?"

“He’s telling the truth.” A burly man with disheveled hair walked out of the village. When he spoke, a canine tooth on his left side protruded, like Jiang Daya’s.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Da Niu greeted him loudly, "Uncle Sanjin."

Chen Sanjin nodded to Da Niu, "Da Niu did a good job." Then he turned to Lin Zhu, "Are you really from Chongli Mountain?"

"Indeed." Lin Zhu nodded, cupped his hands in a fist and explained, "I am Lin Zhu. I wandered into the mountains by mistake and only came out today. I would like to ask the Three Golden Warriors where the nearby cities are."

Chen Sanjin clasped his hands in greeting, "Our place is called Luoshi Township, and the nearest city is Wuping City. Even ordinary martial artists would have to travel there for more than a month. It's getting late now, why don't you come in and stay the night?"

"Wouldn't this be too much of a bother?" Lin Zhu asked politely.

Chen Sanjin laughed and said, "There are always inconveniences when you're out and about. It's not very safe outside the village at night, so please!"

"Thank you!" Lin Zhu nodded, passed through the golden protective shield, and entered the village.

The golden protective shield was formed by the earth's vein power and human energy of the entire village. If any demons entered the village, it would react.

The village deities will then come out to investigate.

If the demons were weak, they would kill them directly.

Even if they can't be dealt with, they can be kept out and held out for a while, waiting for support from the village.

On the streets of Zhuangzhong, Chen Sanjin said, "Brother Lin must be quite capable to have come out of Chongli Mountain."

Lin Zhu humbly replied, "These are just minor tricks, not worth showing off."

Chen Sanjin laughed heartily, "Brother Lin is too modest. May I ask whether you cultivate martial arts or immortality? What do you think of my nephew?"

He pointed to the big cow.

Da Niu looked at Lin Zhu, his eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge.

Lin Zhu thought for a moment and gave a fair assessment: "After reaching adulthood, he will definitely become a martial artist. If he is fortunate enough, becoming an Earth Martial Master is not impossible."

Da Niu's eyes lit up. "You mean I can become a martial arts master?" He was excited, but then he became dejected. His family couldn't afford to send him to learn martial arts.

Chen Sanjin is a martial artist, and his potential has been exhausted at the Yuan Shen stage of martial arts.

Those who cultivate using extreme methods will have a lifespan of at most two hundred years.
