Perhaps it was for the trial, or perhaps it was for some other purpose. But no matter what, giving him a sachet that could reduce the corrosive effects of the miasma couldn't be wrong.
Of course, Qin Yunshang knew that a 'carefree immortal' like the curator must have other means to resist or even eliminate the effects of the miasma.
But even if the curator had it, Qin Yunshang could still earn a favor.
Unbeknownst to Qin Yunshang, her gesture had solved one of Lin Jin's most pressing problems. It was as if she had helped Lin Jin's plan to enter the extraterrestrial realm take a huge step forward.
Chen Xuankong hadn't prepared this, but since Qin Yunshang had given it to him, wouldn't he be looked down upon if he didn't reciprocate? Immortals valued their reputation more than anything else, especially in front of a carefree immortal. They couldn't afford to lose face. It was fine if he lost face, but if he lost face for Xuan Dao Sect, that wouldn't do.
Fortunately, Chen Xuankong was prepared as well. He immediately took out a hand-drawn map.
"The extraterrestrial realm is vast and boundless. Even after hundreds of years of exploration, it's still difficult to get a full picture of it. I have a map with me personally drawn by my senior brother. It records part of the extraterrestrial realm's topography, including the mountains and rivers, as well as some immortal sects. If the curator wishes to explore the extraterrestrial realm, this map might be of some help."
At this, Lin Jin looked over with great interest and took the map from her.
Good stuff.
It only took a little thought to realize how valuable this map was. If one were to really enter the extraterrestrial realm, a map could even save their lives for those who were unfamiliar with the place.
The value of this map was immense.
Lin Jin thanked him as well, but he felt bad accepting something for nothing. After a moment's thought, he said, "I heard that the Cloud Path Sect and Xuan Dao Sect both have immortal beasts. One of them is in a coma while the other is heavily injured. If my disciple has the chance to go to the foreign lands, he will surely pay them a visit and help them solve their problem." Lin Jin nodded.
Lin Jin was very confident about this.
Weren't immortal beasts just Rank 6 beasts?
Lin Jin was a professional. Forget Rank 6, even if it was a Rank 7 beast, as long as he had the Museum of Deadly Beasts, there was no problem he couldn't solve.
Hence, Lin Jin would definitely repay this favor.
Although he didn't directly resolve Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong's problems, Lin Jin proceeded to explain the beast appraisal mystic art to them. It benefited the two Hollow Immortals immensely.
When Lin Jin thought it was about time to leave, Chen Xuankong thought for a moment and couldn't resist calling out, "Curator, please wait!"
Huh?
Stunned, Lin Jin glanced at Chen Xuankong. The man clearly had something to say.
Chen Xuankong thought for a moment and said, "There's something I'd like to ask the curator."
Lin Jin didn't understand why she was acting so bashful. On the other hand, a glint flashed across Qin Yunshang's eyes as if she had thought of something. The corners of her lips curled up.
Chen Xuankong stole a glance at Qin Yunshang. Finally, he made up his mind and said, "Curator, if you were to encounter a tyrannical immortal beast that you cannot afford to offend or defeat, yet it is blocking your path, how should you deal with it in order to drive it away?"
At this, Lin Jin fell into deep thought.
The Xuan Dao Sect cared a lot about their face. If he wasn't wrong, they must have encountered a similar problem. Maybe it wasn't the road that was blocked, but the Xuan Dao Sect.
In the end, it was Chen Xuankong's words.
He couldn't afford to offend or defeat it.
But he still had to get rid of this problem. Noticing Chen Xuankong's expression, Lin Jin guessed that he probably didn't want Qin Yunshang to laugh at him.
But compared to his reputation, solving this problem was more important.
Lin Jin already owed the Xuan Dao Sect a favor so he had to help them.
"What immortal beast? Does it have fur, scales, or blood?" Lin Jin asked. Other beasts aside, Lin Jin could easily identify even a Rank 9 immortal-devouring beast. Other beasts aside, Lin Jin could easily identify.
This time, Chen Xuankong took out an item.
It was a two-foot-long barb with alternating black and white stripes. It also looked like some kind of unique hair. Chen Xuankong handed it over. Lin Jin touched it and immediately, the Museum of Deadly Beasts showed him the corresponding identification results.
Needless to say, Lin Jin raised an eyebrow at this sight.
"Rank 7 beast, black mountain honey badger."
"Ferocious, aggressive, fearless, stubborn, and will not rest until one of them dies!"
"Habits are …"
"Evolution method …"
Reading the Rank 7 pet beast's description, Lin Jin was astounded. This outworld was truly a dangerous place. Any random pet beast here could be compared to Patriarch Xue Pao's true form.
It was no wonder that Patriarch Xue Pao was born in an extraterrestrial land. In other words, the continents of Middle Earth were a barren land for beasts. It was difficult for high-level beasts to be born.
The extraterrestrial land was the true cradle for high-level beasts.
This made Lin Jin's heart skip a beat.
Everything else aside, just the variety of high-level beasts here was worth a trip. If he could include more high-level beasts in the Museum of Deadly Beasts, he might even be able to trigger the museum's other rewards.
Hence, the extraterrestrial land became even more attractive to Lin Jin.
Right now, he had to help Chen Xuankong and the others solve the problem of this black mountain honey badger. According to Chen Xuankong and the others, a Rank 7 beast was equivalent to a true immortal.
Indeed, if this was a true immortal beast, according to the museum's description, its fur could withstand most spells. It could even be said to be immune to them. In that case, most immortals would be helpless against a Rank 7 beast. They couldn't afford to provoke it or defeat it.
Of course, that was because they didn't have a solution.
Everything in this world had a solution. Take the black mountain honey badger for example. It had a fur that could withstand spells and was as strong as a small mountain. An adult black mountain honey badger was more than fifty feet tall. If it went berserk, it would be difficult to defend against it.
However, no matter how powerful a beast was, it had a weakness. Dealing with it based on its weakness was the so-called 'solution'.
Lin Jin pondered for a moment. In fact, he was looking for the Rank 7 honey badger's weakness. Then, Lin Jin said, "This beast is called a black mountain honey badger. Its strength is equivalent to a true immortal. It'll be difficult to kill it, but it'll be easy to drive it away."
At this, Chen Xuankong was overjoyed.
The situation was pretty much the same as Lin Jin had guessed. A few days ago, a giant honey badger had appeared in front of Xuan Dao Sect's mountain gate. This immortal beast was the size of a small hill and it just lay in front of Xuan Dao Sect's mountain gate, refusing to leave. This troubled the immortals of Xuan Dao Sect greatly.
No matter what, Xuan Dao Sect was one of the immortal sects. They had their own reputation and they couldn't allow a beast to block their mountain gate. If that happened, the immortals of Xuan Dao Sect would have no choice but to enter through the back door.
They couldn't afford to lose face.
