I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Shen An Ning held the token and looked at Chen Lin in surprise.

"Second brother, the pattern on this token seems to belong to a divine bird. Could the fourth brother you are talking about be that Mr. Yuan?"

Chen Lin smiled.

He waved his hand and said, "That Yuan guy is not qualified. How can my brother and I become sworn brothers with that villain?"

Ana Shen opened her mouth wide.

There are only two cultivators in the Divine Bird District, apart from Lord Yuan, the only one left is Mr. Bai.

"Second brother, you won't tell me that our sworn fourth brother is Mr. Bai, right?"

"What's wrong with that?"

Chen Lin answered calmly.

Pointing to the instruction board, he said, "This token is yours. When you have time, you can go visit my fourth brother and complete the sworn brotherhood process."

"ah!"

Shen Anning was a little absent-minded.

Then, as if the token was hot, he tossed it back and forth a few times and then carefully put it away.

At this time, I still felt a little unconvinced.

He kept glancing at Chen Lin, as if trying to see through Chen Lin's lies.

"Has your ancestor come out of seclusion?"

Chen Lin changed the subject.

"I have come out of seclusion, but I have not been able to break through. I will stay here to practice after the ceremony."

Ana Shen sighed.

Her ancestor failed to make a breakthrough, and the status of the Xiyuan Shen family was affected.

Originally, her family had always supported Jin Ruhua, and this time she had hope of becoming the grand elder of the Left Alliance, but her lack of cultivation was her shortcoming, so she had to miss the opportunity.

Chen Lin also felt sorry for the Shen family.

It is really frustrating that I have done a lot of good things for the emperor but failed to gain the greatest benefit.

But there is no way.

It is extremely difficult to improve the true realm, not to mention that if the other party wants to reach the perfection of the true realm, there is basically no hope without a great opportunity.

"Will the second brother stay in Rainbow City?"

Ana Shen asked in anticipation.

Chen Lin has now grown into a towering tree. With their sworn brotherhood, if he can stay here, it will be of great help to her and their Shen family.

Chen Lin nodded.

"I should stay here for a while. I can absorb the energy of the Rainbow Bridge here, which will also be beneficial to my practice."

“That’s great!”

Shen Anning looked pleased.

Chen Lin also examined him and said, "Your cultivation is a little weak. After the ceremony is over, I will take you to a place where there is a spring. Drinking it can increase the chance of advancing to the True Realm by 50%."

"real?"

Shen Anning couldn’t believe it.

Treasures that assist in advancing to the true realm are hard to come by in the world, and the Shen family has a deep foundation, so the most they can offer is to increase the chance by 10% or 20%, but it is already enough to make other forces jealous.

An increase of fifty percent in treasures is simply unheard of.

"Of course it's true."

Chen Lin asked the other party to move forward and they communicated via voice transmission as they walked.

"That is a nightmare scene. I can take you in, but you need to complete the mission to leave on your own. It may be dangerous. You should decide whether to go or not."

"go!"

Shen Anning did not hesitate.

Originally, she believed that she was extremely talented and it would not be difficult for her to advance to the true realm, but this retreat gave her a clear understanding.

It is not so easy to break through the true realm.

She failed in this promotion and almost died. If the ancestor had not used the family treasure to restore her body, even if she didn't die, her path to the Tao would have been cut off.

Shen Anning knows his own situation.

On the surface, he seems to have recovered well, but in fact, his origin has been severely damaged. Although there is still a chance, without a heaven-defying opportunity, even immortality will never be able to touch the threshold of the true realm.

Her status in the family plummeted as a result.

Fortunately, Chen Lin became famous in one battle, and her sworn sister became useful and was not abandoned by the family. As soon as she came out of seclusion, she was brought to Rainbow City.

Now that the opportunity has come to her, how could she miss it!

"very good."

Chen Lin looked approving.

"Since Third Sister is so determined, she will definitely succeed. I will find you after the ceremony is over."

"Um!"

Ana Shen nodded vigorously.

Then the two began to chat.

Mainly, Shen An Ning narrated the current situation in the void world, and Chen Lin was responsible for listening, occasionally asking questions.

"That's right."

Walked for a while.

Chen Lin smiled and said, "You can visit the fourth brother when you have time. He is a strange creature from an alien domain. He has many treasures in his hands. You will benefit a lot from getting one of them."

Shen Anning shook his head.

"I heard that Mr. Bai has a bad temper and doesn't even take the Eternal Strongmen seriously. I don't dare to offend him, and I don't have treasures of that level to exchange with him."

“No need to exchange.”

Chen Lin gave Shen An Ning some advice.

"Fourth brother likes to recite poems and write couplets, to show off his elegance, and he also likes to sing operas and pretend to be characters in operas. If you work hard on this aspect, you will definitely succeed."

Without pausing, continue explaining.

"Now that the other party is curious about the idea of ​​sworn brotherhood, this is the best opportunity to gain benefits. Maybe I can get something to help me advance to the Realm, so I don't have to take risks in the Nightmare Realm."

Shen Anning was immediately moved.

He looked at the area where the white bird was and encouraged himself: "Then I'll go give it a try?"

"Go quickly! It will be useless if you wait until it forgets about this matter. You must strike while the iron is hot!"

Chen Lin also encouraged the other party.

And gave some instructions on how the other party should act.

Shen An Ning hesitated again and again, but still couldn't resist the temptation, gritted his teeth, and walked towards the area where the white bird was.

She knew that Chen Lin was doing this for her own good.

Even if she couldn't get the treasure, meeting with Mr. Bai and confirming their sworn brotherhood would be beneficial to both her and the Shen family.

Chen Lin did not accompany them.

The white bird had a erratic mindset, and if he followed it, it would probably backfire, especially for the fat boy, who really disliked him.

Think of the little fat man.

Chen Lin took out the small black sword.

This object is called a divine sword and must be a high-level treasure. However, after research up to now, it can still only be used in a simple way and no other powers have been discovered.

He showed it to Wen Xinyan and others, as well as Jin Ruhua, and even asked Xiaoling Jianzong for help, but no one could see the clues.

Shiratori must know.

But Chen Lin didn't dare to ask the other party.

If the other party asked him to return the sword to that little Yuanzi, he would be in trouble.

It’s better to study it slowly by yourself.

After putting the magic sword into the gray ring, Chen Lin's eyes lingered on the ring again.

This thing is also a pit.

The whole thing was stuck to his hand, with no reaction and no way to throw it away.

It made him extremely depressed.

Xitina said that this thing can receive tasks from the Ant Club, but after so many years, there is no sign of any mission.

Instead, he didn't dare to put important treasures in it.

“It’s really karma!”

Chen Lin sighed helplessly.

He couldn't help but miss Bai Yueguang's delicious Evil-Exorcising Drum, but it was a pity that such delicious food was hard to come by.

After a moment of emotion, Chen Lin put away his distracting thoughts and started wandering around.

"Deputy Alliance Leader Chen is in a very elegant mood."

As I was walking, an old voice sounded from behind me.

Chen Lin stopped.

I turned around and saw that it was an old man, but I didn't recognize him.

However, the title of Deputy Alliance Leader Chen belongs to no one else except him, so it must be him.

"Are you calling me, fellow Daoist?"

Chen Lin asked while releasing his perception.

After investigating, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised that this unremarkable old man was actually in the late stage of the True Realm!

"My name is Chen Daoyou. May I have a word with you?"

The old man looked at the people passing by and made an inviting gesture to Chen Lin.

"Can."

Chen Lin responded indifferently.

Fighting is prohibited on Rainbow Island, and with the Hundred Feather Crown protecting him, even if the opponent is in the late True Realm, he can't do anything to him. There is nothing to worry about.

The old man led the way.

I actually walked into the rainbow building.

But he didn't go through the red entrance, but entered the blue door.

Then went up to the second floor.

Chen Lin had learned about this building. The blue entrance was a public area, and the second floor was an area similar to a food city, with pubs and teahouses opened by various forces.

They entered a teahouse.

They asked for a private room and sat opposite each other.

After the spiritual tea came up, the old man closed the door of the box and bowed slightly to Chen Lin.

"I am Sun Changzu, a member of the Taiqing Sun family. I am sorry for the indiscretion of inviting Daoist Fellow Chen. I hope you will forgive me."

Chen Lin's heart moved.

The Taiqing Sun family is a hidden family that has been quite active recently. The patriarch is a powerful person who has reached the great perfection of the true realm, and there are also self-sealed eternal powerful people in the family.

Rumor has it that their strength is even greater than that of the Taishi Family.

"So it's Brother Sun. Brother Daoist, you found me. I wonder what you want?"

Chen Lin went straight to the point.

The hidden families that were able to hide and protect themselves from the invasion of strange monks all had deep backgrounds, which were far beyond the power revealed to the outside world.

A family like Shen Anning's Xiyuan Shen family may seem like a behemoth, but it is no match for these hidden families.

Although he doesn't want to deal with it, there is no need to offend it.

Sun Changzu pondered for a moment.

He said, "Since Fellow Daoist Chen is so straightforward, I will not beat around the bush. I came here this time on behalf of the new patriarch of the Taishi family to apologize to Fellow Daoist Chen."

"apologize?"

Chen Lin sneered.

"I am just a casual cultivator, I cannot afford the Taishi family's apology. I think they want to punish me, right?"

After saying that, he stood up.

As he walked, he said, "If Brother Sun has nothing else to say, then I will take my leave."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen."

Sun Changzu hurriedly called Chen Lin.

He said shyly, "I was also entrusted by someone, please listen to me, Mr. Chen."

"I think it's better to resolve a feud than to create one. For a hermit family like ours with a long history, because we have existed for too long, there are many factions and conflicts within the family."

"The new patriarch of the Taishi family and Taishi Wufeng are from two different factions. He will never hold a grudge against you because of Taishi Wufeng's death. You can rest assured about this."

Chen Lin looked at the other party.

He asked calmly, "What is the purpose of the Taishi family?"

"They want to compensate Fellow Daoist Chen with a sum of resources, plus a Great Primordial Pill, in exchange for the Hundred Feathers Crown and the Heavenly Spear."

Sun Changzu stated his purpose.

"hehe."

Chen Lin sneered.

This is really crazy.

No matter how stupid he was, he would never return the two eternal treasures and allow the Taishi family to increase its strength. That would be tantamount to seeking his own death.

The Great Hunyuan Pill is good, but you have to be alive to use it.

Sun Changzu frowned.

He continued to persuade, "If you have other requests, you can also raise them. I will pass them on to you. I believe the Taishi family will try their best to meet them."

"There are no demands, and there will be no exchange. Let them give up."

Chen Lin ignored the other party and quickly left the teahouse.

Inside the box.

Sun Changzu's face turned gloomy. After a moment of silence, he took out a palm-sized bronze mirror.

With a gentle press on the back of the mirror, the bronze mirror emits a bright light and the mirror surface becomes clear.

soon.

A man with a sharp face appeared in the mirror.

"Brother Sun called me, but have you seen that Chen Lin?"

The man in the mirror made a sound.

"Yes, but we didn't reach an agreement."

Sun Changzu placed the bronze mirror on the table, picked up the teacup, drank it all in one gulp, and then let out a breath of frustration.

The man in the mirror raised his eyebrows.

"Why, he asked for too much?"

"hehe."

Sun Changzu smiled.

"It's not that I'm asking for too much, but I don't want to reconcile with you at all. I just said you were daydreaming, but you made me come here, which made me very embarrassed."

“I see.”

The man in the mirror nodded slightly.

"That's it."

"That fellow killed Taishi Wufeng and Wan Zhencang. He is so arrogant now. Wait for a while until I get the item that can remove the eternal seal. Then I will let him see what a true eternal strong man is."

"Have you figured out what you want? Which treasure do you plan to take?"

Sun Changzu immediately picked up the bronze mirror and asked.

"The high-level void fish at the top of Tongtian River."

The man in the mirror said casually.

"Since Jin Ruhua can get it, my Taishi clan can do the same. Moreover, we have united with several clans this time and plan to capture more."

The man's tone became stern.

He said coldly: "Our hidden family has been silent for too long, causing the practitioners outside to forget our methods. It's time to let everyone know who has the final say in this cultivation world..."

…

After Chen Lin left the teahouse, he wandered around this floor, thinking about the intentions of the Taishi family.

He didn't believe that the other party could let go of the grudge.

A family that has a strong man in the Eternal Realm is so powerful, how could it make peace with a small figure like him in the early stage of the True Realm.

He would be naive to believe that.

not to mention.

Now that all major forces have gathered in Rainbow City, if the Taishi family swallows their anger, they will surely be ridiculed and will never be able to raise their heads in front of other forces.

Chen Lin pondered secretly.

I feel that the other party's move is a test.

If you succeed, you can get back the two eternal treasures and restore the family's strength. If you fail, it will be useless.

Whether he agrees or not will not affect the Taishi family's revenge. The hatred between them can only be wiped out with blood.

Moreover, if he agrees to reconcile, it would mean that he has no confidence and the other party will not let him go.

"This matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible."

Chen Lin warned himself.

As the Rainbow Bridge becomes more and more solid, the Heavenly Dao Seal also shows signs of weakening. Once the Eternal Ancestor of the Taishi Family lifts the seal, he will be in danger.

The danger must be nipped in the bud.

Think of this.

Chen Lin no longer had the mood to wander around, so he took out a communication talisman and contacted Huangfu Qingrou and the other girl.

After the reunion.

The three returned to the Zuomeng area, and Chen Lin found a location and built a cave using a large Tianji House.

After settling down, continue to think about countermeasures.

He had actually been thinking about this matter, but he didn't expect the Taishi family to act so quickly.

Chen Lin previously believed that since so many masters of the Taishi family had died, apart from the Eternal Ancestor who dared not show up, the family should have little combat power left.

Unexpectedly, the judgment was wrong.

The foundation of the hidden family is much stronger than he imagined.

Think for a long time.

In the end, Chen Lin found that it was difficult to find help in the real world.

We have to find a way from the Nightmare Realm.
