Lin Jin was stunned to hear this. He mused, 'This Xie Sanhuan is truly impressive. To think that he could come up with such a plan and be so ruthless.'
One must know that the path of cultivation was extremely difficult. Even during the golden age of the Immortal Dao, not every cultivator could walk the path of immortality.
Destroying hundreds or even thousands of years of cultivation was not something that just anyone could bear to do, nor was it something that just anyone could bear to do.
However, after giving it some thought, Lin Jin realized that Xie Sanhuan had no other choice.
Xie Sanhuan must have figured out a method to break immortality into the mortal world long ago. He just hadn't used it because he couldn't let go of his immortal cultivation.
Back then, he was being hunted down by the immortal devouring beast and could die in an instant. Under such circumstances, there was no need to hesitate anymore. Survival was more important.
But then again, breaking immortality into the mortal world felt like suicide. If Xie Sanhuan hadn't been lucky enough to meet Lin Jin, who forced him to form a blood contract with the two-headed scavenger, he would have been dead.
Lin Jin told Xie Sanhuan the truth. Xie Sanhuan was dumbfounded. At the same time, he learned that he was forced to form a blood contract with the two-headed scavenger when he was on the brink of death.
Xie Sanhuan only needed to hear a little about the blood contract spell to get away from it. It was no wonder the bird looked at him so affectionately.
At first, Xie Sanhuan hadn't gotten used to his' mortal 'identity so he put on airs. When he saw that Lin Jin was a mortal, he tried to act like an immortal. But after getting beaten up, he behaved himself.
Not only did he behave, but he also recognized reality.
The person before him was also a mortal but he was much stronger than Xie Sanhuan. After getting to know him better, Xie Sanhuan was certain that this man's strength was equivalent to that of an immortal.
Especially that strange beast he could control. It was definitely stronger than an average immortal. Otherwise, how could he possibly capture a two-headed scavenger alive?
He had never heard of a spell that could force a blood contract. But now, he felt great because his life depended on the two-headed scavenger.
If Xie Sanhuan could put aside his arrogance and inexplicable sense of superiority, Xie Sanhuan was actually a decent person. He started chatting with Lin Jin and felt that his attitude had become more sincere. Lin Jin also answered all his questions. Of course, Lin Jin also dug out everything Xie Sanhuan knew.
With that, Lin Jin learned about the existence of the immortal prison and how immortals like Xie Sanhuan managed to survive until today.
He also knew the greatest threat these immortals posed.
His lifespan was running out.
"Mister Lin, I have a request." At this moment, Xie Sanhuan seemed to have thought of something. He stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Speak." Lin Zao no longer held any hope in the integrity of some immortals. Without the halo of an immortal, sometimes, some immortals really couldn't compare to the educated and reasonable mortals.
"I risked my life to go out this time for the sake of my good friend, Immortal Duke Liu. Unfortunately, we failed at the last moment. Duke Liu is dead, but there are still other immortals in the Immortal Penitentiary. Mister Lin, could you go to the Immortal Penitentiary and tell them about the method of shattering immortals into mortals? At the very least, when their lifespans are about to end, they will be able to leave the Immortal Penitentiary and not die there."
Then, he bowed once more.
Lin Jin understood now. He wanted Lin Jin's help to inform the immortals in the immortal prison.
Truth be told, Lin Jin wanted to take a look too.
During their conversation earlier, Xie Sanhuan had told Lin Jin how many immortals there were in the Immortal Penitentiary and how glorious it used to be. There were even many high immortal officials there.
But now, they were nothing more than worms struggling at death's door. Unless they were about to die, they wouldn't dare to step out of the Immortal Penitentiary.
With so many immortals around, they must know a lot so Lin Jin wanted to take a look. Truth be told, Lin Jin's trip to the Nine Heavens World was more rewarding than he expected.
"Also, I know a place where pills are stored. There should be immortal pills that can extend one's lifespan. If Mister Lin needs them, I can lead the way there," Xie Sanhuan added.
Lin Jin smiled, thinking, 'This Xie Sanhuan is quite something. After becoming a mortal, he must want others to be like him. Hence, he asked Lin Jin to tell them about the method of shattering immortals into mortals. How did Xie Sanhuan determine this? He could tell from how tight-lipped he was back in the Immortal Penitentiary.
Also, even if he claimed to be bringing Lin Jin there, he would definitely get some for himself once they reached the place. As for why Xie Sanhuan didn't go himself, it was because he didn't dare to. The journey would surely be dangerous.
However, Lin Jin couldn't be bothered to point this out.
After all, this was a win-win situation so there was no need to be too serious. Xie Sanhuan must know this too, which was why he praised Xie Sanhuan for being smart. If Xie Sanhuan had suggested something that only he could benefit from, Lin Jin wouldn't have indulged him.
First, they went to get the pills.
As expected, the journey was fraught with dangers. There were ferocious immortal beasts blocking their way. Xie Sanhuan wouldn't have been able to make it through on his own but things were different with Lin Jin around.
They passed through easily and obtained the pills.
And because there was no immortal aura, they didn't have to worry about immortal devouring beasts.
Xie Sanhuan was shocked by how smoothly things went. Upon arriving and breaking through the barrier, Lin Jin saw many immortal pills. He couldn't recognize most of them so Xie Sanhuan took the initiative to explain their effects to him.
Needless to say, immortal pills that could extend one's lifespan were the best. Xie Sanhuan's eyes lit up at the sight of these pills. This was clearly what he needed the most.
As long as one could live long enough, mortals could live a carefree life.
Lin Jin gave Xie Sanhuan a few pills and the latter quickly swallowed them. With this, he could live for at least another hundred years.
Moreover, his movements were no longer restricted. As long as he slowly increased his strength without becoming an immortal, there would be plenty of good stuff waiting for him in the nine-heavens realm.
At this thought, Xie Sanhuan felt that becoming a mortal was quite beneficial.
"You're not going to the immortal prison?" Lin Jin suddenly asked. Xie Sanhuan answered honestly, "There are friends and enemies in Immortal Prison. Also, I feel guilty for not telling everyone about the method to become a shattered immortal. I don't have the face to face them so I'll have to trouble Mr. Lin to make this trip."
He wasn't lying. This was indeed his reason.
Noticing Xie Sanhuan's sincerity, Lin Jin didn't say anything else. Just becoming a shattered immortal wasn't a good thing right now. It would be better if the blood contract was included.
Otherwise, becoming a shattered immortal was no different from committing suicide.
It wasn't that easy for an immortal to become a mortal again.
Knowing that Lin Jin was looking for the celestial golden pill, Xie Sanhuan came up with a plan. "Mr. Lin, I know about this superior-grade immortal pill but it's a pity that my cultivation level isn't high enough so I've never seen or eaten it. It should be in the Shang Santian or Violet Cloud Immortal Palace. But the journey is fraught with danger.
Lin Jin was used to Xie Sanhuan's personality so he didn't pin his hopes on him.
And so, the two parted ways. It was obvious that Xie Sanhuan was terrified of Lin Jin. That was why he didn't travel together because he was afraid that Lin Jin would beat him up.
He was traveling alone with a two-headed scavenger bird to protect him. As long as he was careful, he should be fine.
