Lin Jin's eyes lit up, musing that this was the work of an immortal.
Could immortals really exist in this world?
Lin Jin had Hu Yuzhen take a look at the stone tablet. The moment she glanced at it, she was once again controlled by the spell. Fortunately, Lin Jin managed to wake her up in time. When he asked her what was written on the Beastmaster Fourth Scroll, she told him it was an incomprehensible incantation.
Lin Jin knew that he was the only one who could see the method of escape. In other words, only those who had successfully cultivated the Beastmaster Fourth Scroll would be able to see the method of escape.
As for the people in the plaza, they were still trapped in the spell. Oblivious to their own confusion, they were still painstakingly trying to understand the method, not knowing when it would end.
However, Lin Jin dared not be a busybody.
Since someone with supernatural powers had set up such a mysterious place, there must be a reason for it. If Lin Jin got pregnant and met someone with a bad temper, that person might just destroy him in minutes.
Lin Jin knew his own capabilities. He could fight an opponent like the old dragon, but against an even more mysterious immortal, he would only be asking for trouble.
At least not now.
Now that he knew how to leave, Lin Jin wasn't in a hurry.
He walked around the plaza and noticed that there were at least fifty people here. This must have been the result of years of accumulation. However, there was no food or water here. Even if one's cultivation was successful, they couldn't go without food and water. Even if it was for a short period of time, three to five years later, they would still die of hunger or thirst no matter how strong they were. However, other than being unkempt and disheveled, none of the people in the plaza seemed to be dying of hunger or thirst.
Lin Jin didn't know the specific reason but he could only say that it was one of the mysteries of this place.
Lin Jin began to wander around the plaza. The main hall was obviously Lin Jin's main target. However, there seemed to be an invisible barrier around the hall that prevented him from getting close. After one failed attempt, Lin Jin gave up. If he triggered some restrictive spell, he would be asking for trouble.
What Lin Jin was most curious about now was the word 'Great Goose' in the sky. However, it was a little high up and Lin Jin didn't know how to fly so he couldn't get up.
However, Lin Jin did discover something else in the plaza.
He found a stone slab at the cloud staircase they came down from.
The stone slab was engraved with extremely small characters. Because it was in a remote location, almost no one noticed it. In other words, everyone else was confused by the spell on the stone slab. Even if they walked over, they wouldn't notice it.
Lin Jin lowered his head to take a closer look. The words' Cloud Treading 'were written at the very front.
It was another cultivation technique.
Lin Jin chuckled and sat down cross-legged to study it. Curious, Hu Yuzhen came over as well. But after a long while, she couldn't hold it in anymore. She asked Lin Jin what he was looking at because there was nothing on the stone slab.
Lin Jin looked up at Hu Yuzhen in surprise but he didn't explain.
It was clear that there was a restriction on it. He could see it because he had cultivated the Beastmaster Fourth Scroll, or maybe it was because of something else.
Lin Jin wasn't too sure but he had a rough idea of what to do.
The Immortal who created this place did not set up these restrictions to harm people. For example, the restrictions on the stone stele were meant to free people from their obsession and confusion, and to help them improve their cultivation.
Only in this way could one obtain the correct method.
Otherwise, if someone wanted to harm people, they could just send out a few sword energies and everyone here would be dead.
It was the same with this Cloud Treading. It was meant for those who were determined to learn it. Otherwise, even if they mastered the Beastmaster Fourth Scroll, they might just leave. Only those who were meticulous and patient would return to investigate and find the stone slab with the cultivation technique engraved on it.
As Lin Jin studied the Cloud Treading technique, he realized that it was much more difficult than the Beastmaster Fourth Scroll. The Beastmaster Fourth Scroll only required a fifth realm blood contract to cultivate but this Cloud Treading wasn't the case. Even with Lin Jin's current cultivation level, studying it took a lot of effort.
After studying it for several hours, he only managed to scratch the surface of the technique.
Lin Jin knew that this was a rare opportunity. It wasn't easy for him to come here so he couldn't leave just like that. Hence, he decided to put everything else aside for now.
Another twenty or so hours passed.
While Lin Jin was concentrating, there was a sudden movement behind him. The next instant, a faint door appeared.
This sudden change startled Hu Yuzhen. She immediately got up and took a few steps back, looking wary. White Ape and Zombie Cthulhu, on the other hand, were calm. They had seen this before.
The Visitation Hall opened.
Lin Jin was stunned. For the first time, he didn't want to go. After all, this was a critical juncture. But Lin Jin knew that no matter what, he had to go.
Thinking of this, he said to Hu Yuzhen, "Wait here."
Then, in a flash, he disappeared into the door.
Hu Yuzhen's scalp tingled at the sight of this.
It was only now that Hu Yuzhen realized how terrifying this Mr. Lin truly was. To be able to travel between realms was something only a true immortal could do.
Hu Yuzhen was so shocked that she almost prostrated herself in worship. Let's talk about Lin Jin. After entering the Visitation Hall, he put on his mask and pushed the door open.
Inside, everyone had been waiting for a long time.
However, before they could speak, Lin Jin asked, "Is there anything urgent?"
He Qing, Black Crow, and the others shook their heads.
While they didn't have anything urgent, they had plenty of other things like asking for pointers or expressing their gratitude. He Qing expressed her gratitude while Madam Ghost Child wanted to ask about Zombie Cthulhu on Coffin Man's behalf.
However, seeing as they didn't have anything urgent, Lin Jin simply said, "If there's nothing urgent, please help yourselves. I still have other matters to attend to so I'll be taking my leave."
Having said that, Lin Jin turned and left, leaving the dumbfounded crowd behind.
Seeing the curator leave, it took the visitors a long time to snap out of their daze.
"Everyone, when have you ever seen the curator like this?" Old Tian was the most flustered of them all. He had wanted to ask the curator for help, but before he could say anything, the curator had already left.
His bandit stronghold was in chaos, not because of external enemies, but because of internal strife.
His former brothers had turned against each other. Be it fear or old grudges, Old Tian almost died in the hands of his own brothers.
If he hadn't stepped into the Visitation Hall at the right time, he might have been captured.
It could be said that Old Tian was now on the brink of death.
However, the curator had something to attend to and left. Now, Old Tian couldn't hold it in anymore. Without the curator around, he could only seek help from others and see if they had any tricks up their sleeves.
Throwing caution to the wind, Old Tian bowed and asked for help. Compared to his life, he didn't mind losing face.
The others had noticed something off about Old Tian's expression earlier. Now that they saw him bowing and asking for help, they finally understood what was going on.
"I see. Your sworn brothers are afraid of you so they suddenly attacked you. Speaking of which, Old Tian also has a Rank 3 pet beast. Why is he so pathetic?"
