Qingye City.
Before Lin Dong arrived, Crimson Ruizi, Master Ashen Pine, and Master Crimson Ruizi were already waiting in the VIP hall.
Among them, Shi Huzi, the new director, was the most enthusiastic. Master Ashen Pine and the others had never fought alongside Lin Dong's new incarnation, Mu Yuanzi. Although they were very grateful, there was still a gap between their friendship. Moreover, they wouldn't compete with Shi Huzi to befriend him. If it was "Master Clear Spring" who had fought with them in the Nether Cave, the situation would be different.
"Master Mu Yuanzi, you've come out of seclusion!" Shi Huzi came forward and invited Lin Dong into the hall.
"Don't stand on ceremony, everyone. Mu Yuanzi is an undisciplined person, and it's hard for me to refuse your hospitality. If you have anything to discuss, please don't hesitate to speak. Mu Yuanzi will do his best to help." Lin Dong knew that if it wasn't an important matter, the other party wouldn't gather so many people.
Shi Huzi thanked him profusely.
Everyone exchanged pleasantries.
Sit down.
Then talk about business.
After Shi Huzi's detailed introduction, Lin Dong finally understood the purpose of their invitation.
Master Ashen Pine and the others had come to invite Lin Dong, Grandmaster Mu Yuanzi, not because they needed Lin Dong's help, but because their disciples had accidentally entered a special secret realm while searching for the whereabouts of their enemies in the mountainous region of the Liukong Green Leaf School's territory. They didn't dare to enter because they weren't strong enough, so they hurriedly came back to report. It was said that there were all kinds of immortal mountains, seas of clouds, exotic flowers, and strange beasts in the secret realm. If it wasn't for the fact that the seal was too strong, it would definitely be a rare cultivation paradise!
Because they were grateful to Lin Dong for saving their lives, they couldn't repay him.
The elders of the Green Leaf Sect decided to invite Lin Dong along.
To explore the secret realm together.
If there were treasures that Lin Dong needed in the secret realm, they wouldn't be stingy.
"Elder Bai Teng wanted to come with us, but an old friend came to visit just before we left, so we had to postpone it for a few days!" Master Ashen Pine was worried that Lin Dong would misunderstand that Elder Bai Teng was putting on airs, so he hurriedly explained what had happened.
When it came to dealing with people, Master Ashen Pine was better than his senior and junior brothers. Not to mention Scarlet Ruizi and Redbud Seed, even the current director of Qingye City, Shi Huzi, seemed a little serious and old-fashioned. His way of dealing with things was not as skillful as Master Ashen Pine. For example, the matter of Elder Bai Teng's late arrival was only briefly mentioned by Master Ashen Pine. However, Master Ashen Pine was more attentive and paid attention to the psychological reactions of the esteemed guests.
Lin Dong didn't care about such things.
Some people cared a lot about this, but Lin Dong never used his status to show off his qualifications.
In the face of absolute power, one's identity was especially important. Without the corresponding strength, one's identity was sometimes a joke.
"When do we leave?" A thought flashed through Lin Dong's mind.
Could it be that the new opportunity lies in this mystic realm?
Mystic realms in the cultivation world were hard to come by.
It was extremely well hidden.
How could the disciples of the Green Leaf Sect find it so easily and accidentally enter it?
Could it be that this mystic realm was a big trap? Under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be such a big piece of meat pie falling from the sky. Now, it was really suspicious!
However, since he was already here, whether it was a big trap or a meat pie, he had to face it! As long as it wasn't Emperor Blood River waiting in the mystic realm, then whether it was a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, he could enter it!
"Starting from today, how about we leave three days later?" As Elder Bai Teng hadn't arrived yet, Shi Huzi couldn't leave immediately.
"Sure." Lin Dong thought for a while.
Immediately head to the mystic realm.
Then he would only be able to react after falling into a trap.
If he was prepared beforehand, the result might be different.
After talking with Shi Huzi and the others, they discussed the various arrangements for entering the mystic realm. For example, how to help each other if they encountered an enemy, or how to distribute the treasures, etc. Straightforward people didn't beat around the bush. They first talked about the various things that might happen so that it wouldn't be awkward when the time came.
Lin Dong bid farewell and left the VIP lounge, but he didn't immediately return to his room to prepare.
He slowly walked around Qingye City.
Qingye City.
Nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
The enemy didn't seem to be making any big moves. Could it be that the mystic realm wasn't a big trap? But the appearance of this mystic realm was too coincidental!
Lin Dong was still worried. Using Qingye City as the center, he walked around for dozens of miles, but still didn't find anything suspicious. However, the more it was like this, the more Lin Dong felt that he couldn't let his guard down.
Sometimes, it shouldn't be quiet, but the surroundings were too peaceful.
It might not be normal.
"Master Mu Yuan, what are you looking for? If you have any instructions, just let us juniors split up and look for it! " Yi Wei, who was following beside Lin Dong, was a little puzzled by Lin Dong's behavior. This master liked to wander around, and everyone in Qingye City knew about him. But after coming out of seclusion, didn't he seem to be wandering around a little wider? Could it be that Master Mu Yuan had discovered the enemy?
Yi Wei suddenly realized something and immediately became nervous.
He desperately searched the surroundings for traces of the enemy.
Lin Dong waved his hand.
If he couldn't find the enemy, how could a disciple like Yi Wei, who didn't have the talent of insight, find the enemy?
Even if he couldn't find the enemy, it didn't mean that Lin Dong didn't do anything! In order to face the enemy, who would appear sooner or later, Lin Dong had made meticulous preparations. Let's see who will surprise who!
Three days later.
Elder Bai Teng of Qingye Sect finally arrived.
Elder Bai Teng's attitude was very polite, and he was also very modest. He didn't put on the airs of an elder.
He was an especially cheerful old man who loved to communicate with the juniors, and he looked a little like an old urchin. His hair and beard were all white, and he had a ruddy complexion. In his hand, he held a strangely shaped ancient snake staff.
While walking.
This snake staff wasn't used as a walking stick.
Instead, he held it in his hand and swung it left and right, like a funny child swinging a soft whip. It was an extremely strange habitual action.
What was more eye-catching was the huge wine gourd on Elder Bai Teng's back. Lin Dong guessed that this wine gourd, which was several times bigger than its owner, didn't contain wine. Instead, it contained this Elder Bai Teng's magic treasure. Perhaps it was something like Inferno Divine Sand, or Rock Demon Bees. However, there was a 99% chance that it wasn't wine. Even though the wine gourd emitted an incomparably fragrant aroma, Lin Dong still believed that the wine aroma was actually a disguise.
"Where is Great Master Mu Yuan's hometown?" Elder Bai Teng was very curious about Lin Dong's background. He wanted to visit Lin Dong's hometown in the future if he had the chance.
"…" Fortunately, Lin Dong had made preparations beforehand. Otherwise, he would really be exposed.
Elder Bai Teng had visited many places.
Lin Dong mentioned a few places.
He had actually been to all of them.
Fortunately, the cultivation world was big enough, and there were many secret residences or forbidden areas designated by the major sects.
Otherwise, Elder Bai Teng might have been able to see through Lin Dong's fake identity! This old man was naturally active and rarely stayed in the Green Leaf Sect. He often went out, and his knowledge of the cultivation world made Lin Dong blush with shame. Although Elder Bai Teng's cultivation wasn't at the level of a super expert who had transcended mortality and entered sainthood, his deep knowledge could definitely be considered a grandmaster.
As an elder, Elder Bai Teng wasn't very outstanding, but as a traveler …
There probably weren't many people in the cultivation world who could catch up to him.
"Interesting, interesting!" Elder Bai Teng was very interested in the places that Lin Dong had described. He expressed that he would definitely visit them when he had the time. He enthusiastically introduced a few scenic spots to Lin Dong and shared his likes and dislikes.
In Elder Bai Teng's opinion, Lin Dong, this Mu Yuan Zi, should be the same kind of person as him.
Although he didn't speak much, he was also a travel enthusiast.
It was rare to find someone with similar interests.
This was especially true for people who had the same interests as him.
This time, Elder Bai Teng chatted even more enthusiastically. After they set off, he even pulled Lin Dong along and talked non-stop.
Crimson Rui Zi and the others were embarrassed. Dendrobium Zi secretly sent a voice transmission to Lin Dong several times when Elder Bai Teng wasn't paying attention, but Lin Dong just laughed it off. There were all kinds of people in the world, so it wasn't strange at all that they liked to travel! This didn't affect anyone! In Lin Dong's eyes, Elder Bai Teng was just a cultivation world's version of Xu Xiake!
From Elder Bai Teng's mouth, Lin Dong really learned a lot of things.
For example, the taboos of certain places in the cultivation world.
Or the customs.
If he hadn't been there, he wouldn't know what was going on.
However, after understanding it from Elder Bai Teng, Lin Dong would have a way to communicate with related sects or disciples in the future!
"Nine Hell Forbidden Land? I've heard of it, I've heard of that place! I've always regretted that the Nine Hell Forbidden Land is a place that I've always dreamed of visiting. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, I've never been able to go! I know that the Nine Hell Forbidden Land is a sealed place, I know, of course I know! In order to go to the Nine Hell Forbidden Land, I specially looked for Fellow Daoist Wei Chen and Fellow Daoist Chen Guang to understand it … It's a place full of mystery and power. I heard that there are thousands of seals in it! " As Elder Bai Teng chatted, when Lin Dong changed the topic to the Nine Hell Forbidden Land, he actually knew of its existence, and the secrets he knew were no less than Lin Dong.
"I've been there once, but when it comes to understanding it, I'm far inferior to you!" Lin Dong sighed from the bottom of his heart.
"What? You've been to the Nine Hell Forbidden Land? "Elder Bai Teng jumped up.
"I've been there, but there aren't many places I can pass through. It's as you said before, there are all kinds of seals everywhere, big and small. As for the lower levels, it's even more so. For example, the Celestial Water Waterfall, it's like this … "Lin Dong told him what he had seen and heard.
"I've always wanted to see the Celestial Water Waterfall with my own eyes. It's said that there's a peerless secret cross-border seal at the bottom of the pond! It connects to the Heavens beyond Heaven! " Elder Bai Teng's rumor shocked Lin Dong. Could it be that this old man was testing him, or was the rumor wrong? How could there be a peerless secret cross-border seal at the bottom of the Celestial Water Waterfall? If there really was one, then why didn't he know about it?
He didn't know how many times he had been to the Celestial Water Waterfall!
Not to mention the bottom of the pond.
Lin Dong felt that he knew every stone like the back of his hand.
Lin Dong immediately shook his head. "The rumor is wrong. There's no cross-border seal at the bottom of the Celestial Water Waterfall! It's also impossible to connect to the Heavens beyond Heaven! "
He had heard from Granny Hua that it wasn't easy to enter the Heavens beyond Heaven. How could one enter from the Celestial Water Waterfall? It was a whole new world, and one had to meet its conditions to enter the Heavens beyond Heaven!
Elder Bai Teng was starting to doubt his own rumor. He scratched his head. "Could it be that Daoist Wei Chen and Daoist Chen Guang were lying to me? They're not people who would do such a thing! Or was it that the information they received was also misinformed? No, I have to find them after I come back from exploring the secret realm and find out more about it! Master Mu Yuan, come with us. I believe they'll be very happy to see you, a fellow traveler who's been to the Nine Hell Forbidden Land! "
"Okay!" Lin Dong nodded in agreement, but a sense of alarm rose in his heart. There were people here who knew about the Nine Hell Forbidden Land?
Who were Wei Chen and Chen Guang?
How could they know about the Nine Hell Forbidden Land?
These two people …
Could they be the chess pieces that Monarch Blood River had set up in this area?
