While the other visitors were unorthodox, Ye Yuzhou had always been a practitioner of orthodox cultivation so he shared a common language with the two immortals. Surprisingly, they shared a good relationship.
Seeing that the time was right, Lin Jin raised the question of what the nine suns crystal was.
Of course, he didn't say he didn't know what the crystal was. On the contrary, he sounded like a teacher asking a student a question. It was as if he was asking how much one plus one equaled. It was the same tone and attitude.
Sure enough, other than the two immortal visitors, everyone else, be it Black Crow, Ye Yuzhou, Madam Ghost Child, or Zhao Jingyan, were all deep in thought. None of them had heard of the nine suns crystal before.
When Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong heard the question, a thought popped into their minds.
Curator was indeed a carefree immortal.
The reason was simple. Even average immortals didn't know about the nine suns crystal. It was a unique material that only true immortals could refine.
It could be used to refine weapons and was a must-have for fire-elemental immortals.
In short, it was useless but extremely rare, mainly because it wasn't something an average pseudo immortal could refine.
As this was their first test as' Curator ', both Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong were extremely attentive. Just as they were about to speak up, they ended up exchanging awkward glances.
"It's fine. Let's talk one by one. Qin Yunshang, you go first." Lin Jin abided by ladies first so he let Qin Yunshang speak first.
Based on the two immortal visitors' reactions, Lin Jin knew he had asked the right person.
Then, Qin Yunshang cleared her throat and slowly explained the details of the nine suns crystal to Lin Jin. Only then did Lin Jin realize that this was indeed a material that only immortals could refine. It was no wonder why there were no records of nine suns crystals in Middle Earth. After all, even among immortals, it was rare to come across such an item.
Chen Xuankong's explanation was the same. Based on this, Lin Jin concluded that this was the case.
Although Lin Jin now knew what the nine suns crystal was, knowing about it and being able to get their hands on it were two different things. Besides, the only people who could get their hands on the nine suns crystal were Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong.
However, based on their explanation, it was impossible for these two pseudo immortals to have a material like the nine suns crystal.
The next question also confirmed this point.
Lin Jin didn't hide the fact that his disciple needed a nine sun crystal to evolve his pet beast. If it was Qin Yunshang or Chen Xuankong, Lin Jin would give them a corresponding reward no matter who got them.
It was either beast appraisal or treatment.
However, upon hearing this, Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong looked troubled. At first, Lin Jin thought they were unwilling, but after asking, he realized the situation was more complicated than he thought.
"Curator, I've only heard of this nine suns crystal but I've never seen it with my own eyes. It's not exactly a rare item, but not many immortals use it." Lin Jin finally understood after Chen Xuankong explained.
Firstly, only True Immortals could concoct the Nine Yang Crystal. However, most True Immortals would have no use for the Nine Yang Crystal. Only fire-type Immortals would use it when making a breakthrough.
During the golden age of immortals, there were many fire-type immortals. There were even immortal sects like the Heavenly Sun Immortal Sect and Hundred Refined Flames City. Back then, there were a lot of nine suns crystals. After all, demand was high.
But now that the path of immortals had fallen, these immortal sects no longer existed and fire-type immortals were few and far between. As for those who managed to reach the realm of True Immortals, even if there were a few, they were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Who knows, they might be hiding in some remote corner to cultivate.
Coincidentally, be it Xuan Dao Sect or Cloud Path Sect, they didn't specialize in fire-type immortals. Their sects didn't have any fire-type true immortals, not even pseudo immortals. Hence, they couldn't get their hands on nine suns crystals even if they wanted to.
This time, Lin Jin finally understood.
It wasn't that Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong didn't want to help, but they had no other choice.
"Are there any fire-type true immortals in the foreign lands?" Lin Jin asked. If Xuan Dao Sect and Cloud Path Sect didn't have one, the other sects should have one, right?
Qin Yunshang suddenly said, "I've never heard of any fire-type true immortals in the foreign lands."
Chen Xuankong nodded. He clearly didn't know either.
"But we can ask our sect elders when we get back. We should be able to find out," Qin Yunshang said.
Lin Jin didn't think much of it.
It was an indisputable fact that the path of immortals had fallen. With the threat of a Rank 9 immortal-devouring beast, the remaining immortals didn't dare to leave the foreign lands. Moreover, their numbers couldn't be compared to when they were at their peak. Since they had never heard of any fire-type true immortals, even if Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong went back to ask, they wouldn't have much of a chance.
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into Lin Jin's mind.
Why didn't he go explore the outer realm?
Perhaps there would be some unexpected discoveries. Of course, there would definitely be danger, but high risks had high rewards. Just like the Nine Suns Crystal, as long as he could get his hands on it, it would be very easy for him to raise Fiery to the sixth rank.
However, Rank 6 wasn't his final destination.
Lin Jin's ultimate goal was to achieve Rank 9 and there were no longer any resources in Heartland that could support Xiao Huo or the other pet beasts to Rank 6 and above. Hence, he had no choice but to go to the foreign lands.
In other words, he had to go there sooner or later. So why not go earlier?
The thought flashed through Lin Jin's mind and he became more determined.
Next, Lin Jin asked about the foreign lands. Lin Jin wasn't the only one who wanted to know about this. Others like Black Crow, Ye Yuzhou, and the others were equally curious.
To them, perhaps one day, they too would be able to explore the foreign lands. Perhaps a great opportunity would fall upon them.
However, the dangers of the foreign lands were undeniable.
"Unless one has reached the realm of immortals, a mortal body wouldn't be able to resist the corrosion of the miasma." Qin Yunshang didn't hide anything or exaggerate.
At this moment, she took out something.
It was a sachet.
Lin Jin could feel a unique wave of spirit energy coming from it.
"This is a Cloud Fragrance Sachet specially crafted by the Cloud Path Sect. Wearing it can reduce the corrosion of the miasma. Coincidentally, I have one more with me. If you need it, I can give it to you." Lin Jin was stunned by Qin Yunshang's words.
Then, he mused, 'What a smart fairy.'
After asking around, it only took him a moment to figure out that Qin Yunshang was interested in the foreign lands and wanted to go there.
Moreover, Lin Jin had made it clear that Qin Yunshang's disciple needed a nine suns crystal for his pet beast to evolve. This meant that Qin Yunshang's disciple wanted to enter the foreign lands.
