The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 584 Zhao Chen’s Decision (Update)

"According to what Chai Xun said, this Lu Chunyang is a die-hard follower of the 'Empress Pingxin'. Since he really came, his purpose is actually very simple, which is to obtain the body of the True Lord 'Moyun'.

"But the 'Devil Cloud' is placed in a crystal coffin made of 'Mind Ice', and it requires three 'Fruits of Desire' to open it...

"Among them, the 'Fruit of Love' is in Chai Xun's possession, the 'Fruit of Indifference' is in Master Mu Zanglu Mu's possession, and the 'Fruit of Hatred' that originally belonged to Zhen Fan is now in my hands.

"So, Lu Chunyang secretly followed Chai Xun to inspect the various palaces, but did not take direct action. It should be that the power he deployed was not enough to suppress the entire scene.

"He is trying to avoid letting Chai Xun discover his or Joyful Bodhisattva's true purpose.

“After all, in their opinion, this ‘Chai Xun’ was created based on the prototype of Chai Xun during the ‘Ziwei Zhenjun’ period. He would not be very smart and could be easily exploited.

"What they don't know is that the entire Nine Nether Imperial Palace is just a trap to deceive people.

"Although this 'Chai Xun' created by the magic power is indeed not very smart, his original body has already arranged everything, so he just needs to play his true self.

"In short, if I were Lu Chunyang, I wouldn't attack me first, because I'm the weakest and I can get whatever I want in his eyes...

"As long as we can get the 'Fruit of Desire' from Chai Xun and Mu Zanglu unexpectedly, I can take the one in my hand at any time.

"In this way, we can take advantage of their mentality and squeeze out some benefits...

"Well, the more tortuous the process is and the harder it is to obtain, the more those who are staring at Master Moyun's body will believe it.

"Since I've accepted Chai Xun's mission and received benefits from Mo Yun, I have to work hard, right?

“What’s more, this time, it’s absolutely certain that it was the work of the one behind my back who pushed my destiny… With Him watching over me, my life is still guaranteed.

"Ah, actually, after capturing Zhen Fan, my purpose of coming to this ruins has been achieved. There is no need to stay..."

As his thoughts turned, Zhao Chen sighed slightly and decided to stay for a while to help "Chai Xun" and see if he could get more benefits.

If he were somewhere else, he would definitely not have the confidence or the courage to plot against these old monsters who had lived for thousands of years, but this is the "Heart Realm", the "Nine Nether Imperial Palace" affected by the existence of "Chai Xun" himself. Not only are divination-related magical powers invalid, but also, except for himself, anyone who has come into contact with "Chai Xun", whose prototype is problematic, will have their wisdom reduced.

It is okay for someone like Mu Zanglu who comes with his original body, but people like Liandu Bodhisattva and Lu Chunyang who only come with their spiritual thoughts are more easily affected.

I have to say that it was a stroke of genius for Chai Xun to choose himself during the period of "Ziwei Zhenjun" as the prototype.

It's a pity that all this cleverness was used on Master Moyun...

Zhao Chen shook his head slightly, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. He then picked up Zhen Fan's "Dragon Gun" and "Fruit of Hatred" and took the initiative to walk out of the center of the "Shangming Jiuyao Moyi Formation".

When the big black fish saw him, it immediately twisted and struggled more and more violently, but it was a pity that it could not escape the tentacles of the "Blood Cube".

Instead, he was tied up even more tightly because of this action.

When seeing Zhao Chen walk out of the center of the formation, Chai Xun, who was controlling the body of "Mu Zirong", only glanced at the "trophy" in his hand, without any extra expression.

But the "Lü Chunyang" who descended on Meng Sicheng fixed his eyes on the "fruit of hatred". Zhao Chen, who had been using his "spiritual consciousness" to keep in contact with the "jade axe" in the storage bag, pretended not to see him and only said to "Mu Zirong":

“If you take more than three treasures, will you encounter enemies much stronger than you?

"Does the 'trophies' taken from others count as well?"

As he spoke, he shook the thing he got from Zhen Fan, fearing that others would not be able to see the "Fruit of Desire".

"Chai Xun" was like an "NPC" here, answering diligently: "Of course it doesn't count if it's taken from others. After all, they have already paid the price when they took the treasure."

Hearing this, Zhao Chen nodded. In fact, he had a new doubt in his mind. Who set the "rules" of this relic? Why was it like a video game, with levels after levels, and various reward and punishment mechanisms...

He initially thought it was made by Chai Xun or Mo Yun, but after discovering that Chai Xun could not directly tell him the rules before he took the treasure and could only remind him in disguise, Zhao Chen became unsure.

Because the magical power that created this "Chai Xun" belongs to the "Golden Box Five Keys", his "ownership" is indirectly in his hands. Even the "intelligence reduction" effect on him cannot affect him, but the "rules" here can override the "ownership" rules of the Star Chariot accessories.

Is this something Chai Xun or Mo Yun can do?

Well... Lord Moyun, who has taken that step, might be able to do it... But I am more inclined to believe that this is the original rule of the "Jiuyou Imperial Palace", and Moyun and Chai Xun retained these rules to a certain extent when they imitated it.

"Lv Chunyang" who came from the real Jiuyou Imperial Palace must be quite familiar with these rules, so he would not be surprised by Chai Xun's actions.

It’s really strange. It’s okay that those various “strange domains” in the “Black Domain” carry traces of my previous life, but why is the imperial palace in the “Underworld” the same?
The Five Innate Great Beings... Star Gods...

Although his thoughts had drifted far away, Zhao Chen thanked Chai Xun for his answer calmly on the surface, and then deliberately asked:

"Excuse me, Master Chai, how can I leave this place of the Heart Realm ruins?"

In fact, it was very easy for him to leave. Even if he didn't know how to "travel in the mind realm", he could just open the "black realm" channel.

After all, Yan Hongxia is currently on the "heart world" island corresponding to Xuancheng and can serve as a "positioning".

The reason for asking this is to test the waters and see how "Lü Chunyang" would respond, and to determine to what level his intelligence has fallen.

After all, the other party would not allow someone carrying the "Fruit of Desire" to leave the Jiuyou Imperial Palace.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Chen asked this question, he felt that the "line of cause and effect" between him and Lu Chunyang suddenly thickened, which meant that the other party was planning to contact him directly.

"Heh, although it's not the worst option, if I go on the scene myself, I'll lose my transcendent status, which is not a good response."

When Zhao Chen secretly shook his head, Chai Xun, who was at the entrance of "Kan Palace", also gave the answer to the question:

"It's easy to leave the ruins. Just go to the Central Palace and walk out of the main gate."

And in the "Central Palace" is placed the "crystal coffin" containing the fake body of "Mo Yun".
