I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Nianqing, writing.

At the bottom of the back of the book, three small characters are neatly placed.

Although the handwriting has become somewhat blurred due to constant friction over time, it can still be distinguished, and Chen Lin even sensed the aura of Buddha's power from above.

In the Demon Suppressing Temple of the Nightmare Realm, Nian Qing's face appeared in his mind, leaving him confused.

From the past information, it can be concluded that Nian Kong in the lower realm is a clone of the powerful Buddhist cultivator. They are hiding in various places to avoid the pursuit of demons. However, Nian Qing and others should have been absorbed by the other party after they built Cangyun Mountain Demon Suppression Temple. The monk in the nightmare world is just a projection.

He's always thought so.

But now it seems that everything he thought before was wrong.

Since Nian Qing's works will be handed down here, and judging from the quality of the classics, they are at least thousands of years old, then it means that Nian Qing is also a person from the upper world.

By analogy, the monks in the Seven Buddha Pictures should all be from this upper realm. The specific reason why they went to the lower realm and why they appeared in that small place in Tianyuan Continent is probably related to the remnants of the demon.

Thinking of this, Chen Lin remembered what the Nian Kong clone said to him in the secret realm of Demon Suppression Temple.

The other party said that there were nine clones distributed in the heavens and the world, and asked him to deliver the cassock to the clones that were not demonized. He also said that there was no need to actively search for them, and they would meet each other if they were destined.

And the other party also gave him a reward, which was to send him to an interface that suppressed the demonic energy and eliminate the demonic seeds there.

However, something unexpected happened when he crossed the space gate. He failed to make it, but ended up in the land of gods by mistake.

As a result, his destiny changed. He thought that he would never encounter anything related to the other party again, but he did not expect that he would be involved with the Demon Suppressing Temple in this way.

Chen Lin looked gloomy.

He didn't think that the purchase of this book was a coincidence, it must be the thread of cause and effect that was playing tricks on him.

This line must be dealt with as soon as possible. He can't wait any longer. He doesn't want to be involved in the Zhenmo Temple in the slightest.

He originally agreed to use Nian Kong's clone to help, on the condition that the other party would help him eliminate the demon seeds, but the other party failed to do so and almost let him die in the turbulence of space. He did not break the agreement.

As long as the thread of cause and effect was severed, he immediately threw away the cassock and completely severed the connection.

As for the demon-suppressing ring on the head, it was obtained from the traveling merchant and has nothing to do with the other party. The rules of the nightmare world are of their own and extremely powerful. Even if the other party has the means, they cannot affect the nightmare world.

Chen Lin secretly made up his mind. After the trading conference, no matter whether he could find a treasure to improve luck or not, he had to cut off the thread of cause and effect. Even if he used the luck-enhancing technique, he couldn't wait any longer.

After thinking for a while, he put away the classics.

Then he took out the jade slip that recorded Zhi Gedan, recorded the contents in his mind, and went out to purchase materials to start refining tomorrow.

If it can be refined, then there will be a high-level exchange item at the exchange meeting the day after tomorrow, otherwise there is really nothing on him that can be traded.

Then, he looked at other harvests.

What satisfied him the most were the three classics he bought together with the detailed explanation of demons.

One is "Explanation of Alchemy", one is "Encyclopedia of Talismans", and the other is "Puppetry" that he has been looking for!

Of course, these three items are ancient cultivation inheritance and are no longer applicable today. The main reason is that the materials are extinct. But if not for this, such a level of inheritance would not be sold in public, and the price would still be so low.

"Now, let's see if I can find replacement items and turn waste into treasure!"

Chen Lin murmured expectantly, took out the jade slips and looked at them one by one.

It is naturally difficult for others to find substitutes, because the level of extinct treasures is very high, and it is naturally not something that can be replaced easily. However, he has the innate ability to appropriately lower the level of the material. As long as it can reach a theoretically feasible level, it is enough.

In this way, the difficulty is immediately reduced by several steps.

The first thing I read was the explanation of Alchemy.

The content was recorded in a very rare ancient script. Fortunately, he had studied ancient scripts he had never seen before in Baishuang City in the past three years, so he could barely understand it.

Among them, most of the content introduces the methods of alchemy, then the characteristics of spiritual herbs and elixirs, and finally there are more than a dozen ancient prescriptions.

The method of alchemy refining in ancient times is very different from that of today. It only has some reference significance. Most of the spiritual herbs and elixirs are now extinct. As for the elixir recipes, most of them are in the foundation building and golden elixir stages, and there are only two in the Nascent Soul stage. But there is one for the God Transformation Stage, and even one for the Void Refining Stage!

It was precisely because he saw this Void Refining Pill recipe that he bought this book. If he could improve this recipe, he would make a lot of money!

However, when Chen Lin carefully read through the contents of these prescriptions, he couldn't help but look ugly.

Not to mention the Void Refining Pill Formula and the God Transformation Pill Formula, there are only two Nascent Soul Stage Pill Formulas. Several of the main ingredients are unheard of. If you want to refine them, you can only find substitutes based on the medicinal properties of each elixir. Whether it can succeed or not is still unknown. Even if you rely on your natural ability, it is probably not an easy task.

Sure enough, it's not that easy to take advantage of.

Chen Lin shook his head, put down the jade slips, and picked up the jade slips from the Talisman Collection.

It is still similar to the alchemy explanation. It records the techniques for making talismans, including the methods of refining talisman pens, talisman paper and talisman ink, as well as the inheritance of dozens of talismans, but most of them are low-level talismans, and there are only a few high-level ones. , and the requirements for the cultivation of the talisman maker are very high, and the materials used to prepare the spiritual ink are also extremely unfamiliar.

With a sigh, he put down the jade slip, and finally picked up the jade slip of the puppet technique.

Then he was stunned.

This puppet technique was completely different from the puppet technique he thought about.

In the entire classic, there is only one method of refining puppets, which is called 'shadow puppet'.

This puppet does not need to use the method of refining weapons to refine its body. Instead, it needs to find some special creatures in the world for its body.

For example, the level of mountain lords, tree spirits, zombies, white ghosts, etc. must be high.

From this point of view, this can no longer be regarded as an orthodox puppet, but more like corpse refining, or a fusion of corpse refining and puppetry.

In addition to the body of the main material, countless kinds of materials are also needed, some of which Chen Lin has seen, some that he has never seen but heard of, and some that have never been heard of, but most of them are Yin-type items.

These things are already difficult to find, but the most difficult thing is the final refining stage.

The link between the shadow puppet and its master is not the puppet seal, but a method called 'Three Mysterious Puppet Refining Techniques', which can refine the puppet into a shadow-like existence. Whether it is control ability or flexibility, Much stronger than using the psychic puppet seal.

Moreover, the shadow puppet refined by this method has the ability to grow and can, like a monk, increase its level by absorbing energy, which is no less than a clone.

This is something that ordinary puppets can never do, which makes Chen Lin very excited.

And he felt that he had a chance of successfully refining this shadow.

Because he met all the conditions for the Three Mysteries Puppet Refining Technique, which is the most difficult level for others.

The so-called 'Three Mysteries' are the soul, soul, and blood essence of the refiner.

The reason why it is difficult for others is that using this secret method requires not only the energy of these three things, but also the source, and at least half of the source!

Normal monks cannot lack any kind of origin. Let alone half of the separation, even if it cannot be tolerated at all, it will have a huge impact on the main body. No matter how good the shadow puppet is, it cannot be compared with itself.

But he can be satisfied.

The origin of the soul can be restored with the Soul-Reviving Pill, and for the soul, the second soul can be used directly.

As for the source of essence and blood, he has practiced the Diamond Body Refining Art, and the energy and blood are already extremely strong. If the original source is damaged, it can be replenished with the Body Refining Art, which just consumes some heavenly materials and earthly treasures such as the Three Treasures Buddha Dew.

A puppet like a clone can act independently and grow. Not to mention basically meeting the conditions, no matter how difficult it is, it must be refined!

Next, Chen Lin focused on understanding the refining method.

Before we knew it, it was dawn.

There was still no reply from Ye Luo, so Chen Lin simply sent a messenger to Ye Zhengming to inquire about the situation, and got news from the other party.

It turned out that a high-level spiritual monk came to the trade fair and was invited by the ancestor of the Ye family to check Ye Luo's body, so he didn't come out.

The other party didn't say anything about the progress of the inspection, and Chen Lin didn't ask, so he continued to let Xiaocao stay in the cave while he went to Fangshi to purchase materials.

Today he mainly browses stores.

The materials required for both Zhi Gedan and Shadow Puppet are relatively high-end, and it is too difficult to find them in scattered stalls.

The purchase went smoothly, and it didn't take long to buy all Zhigodan's materials.

Although Zhi Gedan requires a lot of materials, it is not too rare. It just consumes a large amount of spiritual stones, which makes Chen Lin feel a little painful.

If the elixir can be refined, it will be great, but if it cannot be refined, it will lead to blood loss.

But no matter what, after all, they have been gathered together, but only most of the materials for the shadow puppet have been purchased, and there are still a few missing that have not been found at all, let alone the most important 'spiritual body'.

Chen Lin also knew that the materials required for the inheritance of this kind of ancient cultivation could not be easily collected, or even not collected at all. He could only wait and find them slowly. If he couldn't find the original materials, he could only use substitutes and rely on his talent. Refining.

After searching for a while, he stopped browsing and headed to other markets.

Although this is the home of the trade fair, because there are so many people coming, the other markets are more lively than usual, so maybe something can be gained.

"Are all the things this fellow Taoist possesses really come from other worlds?"

As soon as Chen Lin arrived in Chengxifang City, he saw many cultivators gathered around a newly built stall, and some people were asking questions.

When he heard that there was something from another world, his eyes lit up and he immediately walked over.
