I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

"Ah, Elder Chen, you are back!"

The man waiting outside Chen Lin's Cave Mansion saw Chen Lin's figure and immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

Chen Lin glanced at the other party and said calmly: "At such a critical moment, Daoist Sun is not guarding his own fairy city, so he came to me. Is there anything important?"

The person who came was none other than Sun Caiyi's uncle, Sun Yushi. He had a bad sense of this person and did not want to have too much contact with him.

Sun Yushi didn't care about Chen Lin's coldness, and still said with a smile on his face: "Elder Chen and our Sun family are now a family. In order to show our closeness, the patriarch specially ordered me to send some treasures to Elder Chen. Think of it as my niece’s dowry, and I hope Elder Chen can treat her well.”

After saying that, he took out a storage bag.

Chen Lin was stunned, but he didn't expect that the other party was here to give a gift.

He curiously took the storage bag and poked his consciousness into it, finding that there were only three things inside, a round ball, a jade slip, and a yellowed paper roll.

Do you still need to use a storage bag for this little thing?

Chen Lin secretly complained.

However, he felt that given the status and strength of the Sun family, since these three items were given as dowry, they would not be too shabby, so he took them out directly to check.

Then he looked surprised.

Sun Yushi took the opportunity to speak: "I recently heard that Elder Chen is collecting secret techniques that can produce earth spiritual roots. Our Sun family happens to have some, so we sent them to you."

He continued: "The round ball is called the Earth Spirit Bead, which is the basic spiritual object for generating spiritual roots. The scroll contains an ancient recipe, which is used to quickly cultivate and strengthen spiritual roots. Although the required materials are valuable, they are old and new. The identity of the elder should not be difficult to obtain.”

Chen Lin's eyes flashed slightly and he put the things into his storage bag.

These three items were simply tailor-made for him, which showed that the Sun family had carefully investigated him, but it didn't matter. Since they wanted to get close to the Silver Fairy through him, they naturally wanted to know the details.

"The things are very useful, so I would like to thank fellow Taoist Sun. He also took me to say hello to Patriarch Sun Yuguang, saying that I will definitely treat Caiyi girl well and will not let her be wronged."

After accepting other people's treasures, Chen Lin's attitude improved a lot and his tone became gentler.

However, he did not invite the other party to enter the cave, nor did he talk about Sun Caiyi's affairs. The other party probably didn't care either.

All the Sun family needs is this relationship. It doesn't matter whether he takes Sun Caiyi into his house or not, as long as Fairy Baiyin approves.

After chatting for a while, Sun Yushi said goodbye and left.

Chen Lin entered the cave and took out the three things given by the other party.

First of all, I read the contents of the jade slip again. The secret technique recorded in it is called "Four Spirits Transforming Earth Technique". As the name suggests, you need to have the other four spiritual roots first, and then use the principle of the five elements to fuse the earth attribute spiritual objects. , forming new earth spirit roots.

The reason why he said that this secret technique was tailor-made for him by the Sun family, rather than inherited from ancient times, was because of this limitation.

Although the fact that he has the four spiritual roots of metal, wood, water, and fire is secret, you can find out if you want to find out.

The Sun family has the inheritance of the earth element's innate abilities, and their research on the earth element's secret techniques must be very deep. It is not impossible to create such a secret technique.

He had previously thought of going to Sun Caiyi to ask about this secret technique, but he never took action.

After studying it carefully for a while, Chen Lin nodded with satisfaction and put it aside.

The spiritual root formed by this magic is also a pseudo-spiritual root. If you want to turn it into a real spiritual root, you need to constantly temper it with special means, just like the way he obtained the thunder spirit root before.

Then he picked up the yellowed paper roll again.

The elixir recorded above is called Tu Yuan Dan, which is used to warm and strengthen the earth spiritual roots. All elixirs are basically of earth nature. Although they are precious, they are not impossible to collect.

Finally, he picked up the Earth Spirit Bead and looked at it. After putting it down, he took out a box from his sleeve.

Remove the shielding charm from the box, then open the lid to reveal a wooden hairpin and a mini umbrella.

The wooden hairpin trembled slightly, and the figure of Yunxiu Niang appeared.

As soon as her body condensed, a sense of danger that Chen Lin was very familiar with enveloped the cave. Yun Xiu Niang hurriedly picked up the Tianji Umbrella, enlarged it and held it above her head.

The sense of danger receded like a tide.

Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. This disaster had left him with a shadow, and he didn't want to be hit again.

"Why did you let me out today? Aren't you afraid that I would disturb your good deeds?"

Without the danger of being struck by lightning, Yun Xiu Niang felt relieved, and then looked at Chen Lin angrily.

Chen Lin shrugged and did not answer.

In the past, he didn't have much defense against this woman, because most of his secrets were known to the other party, but since the other party once spied on him and Qin Lingyu Wen Cun and was discovered by him, he sealed her in a box , if the other party wants to come out, he has to make a noise in advance, and then he will let the other party come out.

So the other party got angry and never asked for it, even if he took the initiative to summon him.

But recently it seemed that I couldn't bear it anymore, and this time I took the initiative to run out as soon as I opened the box.

"Why are you looking for me? If you have anything to say, tell me quickly, otherwise I will go back!"

Seemingly offended by Chen Lin's disregard, Yun Xiu Niang glared at him fiercely and said angrily.

"Hehe." Chen Lin chuckled and said, "Why, you don't even call me husband anymore. Isn't it too heartless?"

"Pooh!"

Yunxiu Niang took a sip, but her ghost body couldn't spit out anything. She could only look at Chen Lin with resentful eyes and said: "You have locked me up, and you still want me to call you Langjun. You Do you think this lady is stupid?"

"That's not true." Chen Lin shook his head repeatedly and said, "In my heart, Xiu Niang is a peerless beauty who combines both beauty and wisdom!"

"Humph, you men are just good at talking, and none of you are good at it!"

Yun Xiu Niang rolled her eyes at Chen Lin, but her anger subsided a lot. She curled her lips and said, "You won't call me out if nothing happens. If you have any questions, ask them quickly. While I'm in a good mood now, maybe you can tell me You some.”

Chen Lin smiled and pointed at the three items on the table and said, "It's nothing. I just want you, Xiu Niang, to help me check if there is anything wrong with these three items."

The origin of the other party was mysterious, and his knowledge and eyesight were far beyond his, so he asked the other party to help him take a look.

"There is a problem, there is a big problem. It seems that your character is not very good. There are people everywhere who want to harm you."

Yun Xiu Niang just glanced at it, then sneered and said.

Chen Lin was stunned.

Originally, he only asked the other party to check because of his cautious character, and never thought that the Sun family would really dare to do harm to him.

You must know that Sun Caiyi is still in his hands, and the other party is so deliberate in order to rely on Fairy Baiyin, how could he do such a thing of digging his own grave?

"No, are you seeing it accurately?"

Chen Lin didn't quite believe it and looked at the other party suspiciously.

Yun Xiu Niang's anger rose again and she said angrily: "If you don't believe me, what are you asking me to see? I'm too lazy to care about you anymore. I'm going back to Muchai. Don't call me in the future!"

Chen Lin hurriedly took the wooden hairpin in his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I made a mistake. This matter is very important to me. Please tell me what the situation is."

Seeing that Chen Lin was really anxious, Yun Xiu Niang stopped being petty. She just resented Chen Lin for banning her, but she would not really ignore matters that were really related to Chen Lin's safety.

"There is something wrong with this earth spirit bead."

Yunxiu Niang pointed at the beads and said seriously.

"Zhu, isn't this a earth spirit bead?"

Chen Lin felt the rich earth energy in the bead and felt that it was exactly the same as the earth spirit bead in the records, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Yunxiu Niang shook her head and said: "That's because you know little about this kind of treasure. The Five Elements Spiritual Beads are all evolved from the Qi of the Five Elements. They are natural and nourishing things, but this bead of yours is man-made. !”

"What's the difference?"

Chen Lin frowned, picked up the beads and inspected them carefully, but found no traces of artificial manufacturing.

"Originally, there isn't much difference. It's just that the man-made spirituality is slightly worse."

Yunxiu Niang explained, and then immediately continued: "But yours is different. This one is defective. The manufacturer deliberately cut off the yin attribute of the spirit bead when making it, leaving only the yang attribute. If it is used It doesn’t matter if it is used for other purposes, but if you use it as the basic spiritual object for generating spiritual roots, then the spiritual roots that are born will be incomplete.”

Chen Lin frowned even deeper when he heard this.

He wondered: "Isn't the Earth Spirit Pearl pure earth attribute? How can it also have yin and yang attributes?"

Yunxiu Niang shook her head and said: "Everything in the world is divided into yin and yang, and the earth spirit bead is no exception. The same is true for other five element treasures, but they are not used for extremely special purposes. It does not matter whether they are yin and yang, so they are rarely used. Some people are paying attention to this, and this yin and yang quality is recessive, and it is indeed difficult to distinguish without special observation capabilities."

After listening, Chen Lin's eyes showed a serious look.

He naturally believed Yun Xiu Niang's words, so the Sun family's move was deplorable. No matter how arrogant he was, he would definitely retaliate, but the Sun family would have to pay a bloody price for this matter!

He didn't believe that the Sun family, which mainly inherited the earth system, would not know that this earth spirit bead was defective, not to mention that the bead itself was a product made by the other party, and the attached spiritual root method must have been intentional.

"What will happen if I fuse this earth spirit bead to generate spiritual roots?"

Chen Lin needs to understand clearly the disadvantages and then analyze the Sun family's purpose of doing this.

It stands to reason that he is now the bridge between the other party and the Silver Fairy, and the other party has no reason to harm him.

Yunxiu Niang said calmly: "It depends on what you want to do with this earth spirit root. If it is just used to cast spells, it will not be harmful, but can actually increase the power. But if you use it to condense the Nascent Soul, then It’s doomed to fail!”
