Chapter 283 The Old Man (read in half an hour)

On the eastern coast, in a small town.

Chen Yuan was sitting in the only inn in the town, eating the local special seafood meal.

The half-grown boy stood behind the counter, wiping the counter vigorously with a rag, and said in a positive tone:

"My guest, you heard me right. The sea route has not been smooth these two days, and it is dangerous to go to Penglai Island. It is better for you to stay in the store for a few more days and ensure that we serve delicious food and drinks."

Chen Yuan took a sip of tea and said curiously:

"Why is it not peaceful?"

The young man looked outside the door and saw no one there, then he lowered his voice and said:

"I heard that there are sea ghosts, which have killed many immortals."

"What kind of sea ghost can even harm people from the immortal family?"

Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows, took out a gold leaf and flicked it on the counter:

"Let's talk about it. Once you've agreed, this is yours."

Looking at the golden leaves that penetrated the wood, the young man's eyes lit up.

After reaching out and touching to confirm that it was gold, he looked at Chen Yuandao in surprise:

"My guest, are you also an immortal?"

"He's not a fairy, he just knows some tricks."

"Well, Immortal, I don't want this golden leaf. I would like to ask you to teach me this trick, can you?"

While he was talking, the half-year-old boy walked out of the counter with a jug of good wine, served the good wine, and looked at him eagerly.

Chen Yuan's spiritual consciousness swept away, only to see that the young man had no spiritual roots in his body, and his energy and blood were not strong.

Even because he grew up by the sea, he has a lot of dampness in his body.

Shaking his head, he poured the tea and said:

"Although you are a clever person, unfortunately you don't have spiritual roots and you don't have enough energy and blood. There is no technique that I know that is suitable for you."

The implication is that you can't teach him.

The young man looked disappointed, but he did not continue to pester. Instead, he pulled out the chair next to him and sat down:

"I have asked other immortals before, and they all said that I am not suitable for practice."

After a pause, he brought the topic back:

"About four months ago, there was a scary sea ghost on the sea route to Penglai Island."

"This sea ghost is very strange. It doesn't harm mortals, but only attacks immortals who pass by."

"I heard that there are almost more than a hundred immortals on this stretch of road."

"So many?" Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise:

"This sea ghost is infested. Didn't you ask an expert to solve it?"

"Please, I heard that all the immortals on Penglai Island are here, but they can't find the sea ghost."

"The sea ghost is cunning. I heard that only ten immortals can go back and forth together now, so the sea ghost will not dare to come out."

Chen Yuan frowned and asked in his heart:

"Mr. Gui, I remember that Penglai Island is a first-class sect. There are earthly immortals on the island, right?"

"Well, Fairy Liyue still has enough longevity, so she probably hasn't passed away yet."

"Then this sea ghost is not simple. He can be a monster under the eyes of the earth immortal and still hide well."

"Isn't it the same for you? You are carrying the misty and traceless cattails, and I am covering up the secrets for you. Unless you lock it in advance or leave a mark, it will be difficult for the earthly immortals to find you."

Chen Yuan said thoughtfully after hearing this:

"You mean, maybe this sea ghost is like me and has a strange treasure on his body?"

"No, my guess is that this should be a certain demon cultivator who possesses a rare treasure. Fairy Liyue is also turning a blind eye. After all, Penglai Island is not far from the outer sea. As long as this demon cultivator does not provoke her, She probably won’t take action against the people from Penglai Island.”

"Why?"

"It's very simple. If the demonic cultivators are pushed into a hurry, they will harass Penglai Island day and night. Isn't it worth the loss? Moreover, Penglai Island has not been in decline for many years, and generations of immortals have inherited it. Don't you think it's strange?"

Chen Yuan was silent for a moment: "Is Penglai Island having an affair with a demon cultivator?"

"If the Beast Controlling Sect is here and has been dealing with demonic cultivators all year round, do you think the several returning ancestors in the sect would make some innocuous transactions with the demonic cultivators?"

"this···"

"Things in this world are not black and white. As long as they don't violate principles, other sects will pretend not to know."

Chen Yuan was silent and finally nodded slightly:

"Penglai Island handles things so smoothly. I hope it won't be difficult for Lianzhu to trade this time."

Seeing Chen Yuan's silence, the half-grown boy thought he was worrying about gathering enough people for ten people, so he immediately said:

"Xian Chang, you can go all the way north along the coast. There is a seaside city seventy miles away. It is a big city. It should be easier to gather ten people to go to Penglai Island."

Chen Yuan glanced at him when he heard this, grinned and said:

"It's okay. The tricks I know should be able to target that water ghost, so I won't try to recruit anyone."

After that, he stood up and walked towards the door: "The golden leaf is yours."

As soon as the words fell, the slight sword intent hidden in the golden leaves quietly dissipated.

"Be careful, Immortal, that sea ghost is very powerful."

The young man shouted at Chen Yuan's back, returned to the counter with the good wine, and took a chopstick to pry it off.

But unlike the three-pointed stick firmly pressed into the counter just now, the gold leaf now fell off almost as soon as it was touched.

"It's strange."

The young man took the gold leaf and muttered, then put it away close to his body with a slight smile on his face:

"Although I can't practice cultivation, I have saved enough money to marry a wife."

······

After Chen Yuan walked out of the inn, he didn't delay any longer. When a clone appeared on his body, he also attached a phantom clone talisman to his body.

With the operation of the Huanxin Art and his top phantom spirit roots, his entire body seemed to blend into nothingness, without any traces visible.

Although he was quite confident in his own strength, it was not in line with his style to not make preparations even though he knew there were problems on the sea route.

At that moment, he and his clone were in darkness and light, flying towards Penglai Island.

Penglai Island was only more than three hundred miles away from the eastern coast. At his speed, he had flown more than half the distance in less than half a quarter of an hour.

Suddenly, a melodious singing sound came.

His consciousness followed the location of the song, and he saw a sea monster appearing on a rock.

This sea monster has a body and a fish tail, with pearl shells hanging on its chest, barely covering its chest.

Now her eyes are lightly closed, her head is slightly raised, and she is singing an unknown melodious tune.

The sound is clear, fascinating, and even creates strange reveries in the mind.

This illusion is mixed with charm. Where have I seen it before?

Chen Yuan was confused in his heart. While keeping his soul intact, he controlled his clone to show an attitude of obsession, then changed his flight direction and landed next to the reef, looking at the sea monster with admiration.

The siren seemed unaware that someone was beside her, and was still singing the tune emotionally.

She didn't open her eyes until the song was over.

Looking at the man with admiration in his eyes but a possessive look in his eyes, she sighed softly:

"Do I sing well?"

"Sounds good." Chen Yuan's clone replied subconsciously.

"Then do you want to continue listening to me sing, or do you want me to become a human and have fun with you?"

"I want it all!" Chen Yuan's clone replied without thinking.

There was a trace of disgust in the siren's eyes, but he still stretched out his hand and said:

"Then come with me."

Chen Yuan's clone didn't resist at all, and immediately put his hand on the sea monster's hand, and was dragged into the deep sea by her.

Chen Yuan's body quietly broke through the sea water and followed not far above them. Seeing them diving deeper and deeper, when they were almost reaching the bottom of the sea, the sea monster suddenly disappeared with its clone.

Chen Yuan felt that the clone was hundreds of miles away from him in an instant, and he couldn't help being a little shocked:

"What kind of escape method is this?"

"It's similar to your Fire Cloud Escape method, but this method requires the use of water spiritual veins to move. Her Taoist body is obviously not as good as your Fireyang Taoist body."

"I see."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly. In order not to alert the snake, he did not use Fire Cloud Escape, but quietly rushed to the location of the clone, while focusing most of his attention on the clone.

And after the sea monster pulled the avatar to receive the water and move the spiritual veins, the two figures appeared in a cave like a crystal palace.

I don’t know if this cave is designed this way or if there is another mystery behind it.

It looked empty, with a fragrant soft couch in the middle and no other decorations.

Chen Yuan took another closer look and saw a pile of withered bones next to the pink-scented soft couch.

At this time, the siren let go of his hand, and the curtains of the pink-scented soft couch were opened to both sides in time.

From the soft couch, a lovely person with skin as white as fat and phoenix eyes and willow eyebrows was revealed, as if Emei was born out of water.

is her? !

Chen Yuan's heart was shocked, and he recognized the identity of this woman at a glance.

And the woman looked at Chen Yuan's clone with a smile and said:

"Good brother, do you like sister Ling'er or the Nu family?"

In an instant, the charm came to her, and the whole world, no, this Crystal Palace, seemed to be reflecting this woman.

Her fair skin seemed to be glowing, the whiter was whiter, the softer seemed softer, and it seemed that she could vaguely smell the body fragrance coming from her body.

The spiritual thought dominated by the phantom clone talisman was stunned by the charm, and he subconsciously said:

"I like you! I like you!"

"Cackle..."

The woman smiled coquettishly, her eyes glowing pink, and she raised her finger at Chen Yuan's clone and said:

"Well, good brother, what are you waiting for? Come here quickly."

Chen Yuan's clone didn't hesitate at all and rushed towards the pink-scented soft couch.

Seeing Chen Yuanhou's anxious look, the woman cast a spell and looked sideways at the sea monster and said:

"Sister Ling'er, you still lost. All men in this world are the same. There is no soulmate who only appreciates your singing. They are all stinky men with ungrateful hearts and false intentions."

As she spoke, her magic technique fell on Chen Yuan's clone, and the pink-scented soft couch she was on immediately manifested a pink formation.

This formation was activated along with the magic formula, causing Chen Yuan's clone to stop moving and look straight ahead with his eyes.

The strong combination of charm and illusion infected the spiritual thoughts in the phantom clone talisman on the spot and transmitted them to Chen Yuan's body.

Chen Yuan, who was rushing over, narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately cut off the connection with the clone.

Without the support of Chen Yuan's body and soul, this clone was infected by charm and illusion, and the whole body was distorted, and then turned into little pink lights and escaped, and a talisman that lost its aura fell out of it.

Seeing this scene, the charming woman's expression changed and she immediately looked at the sea monster.

But thinking that she couldn't see through it herself, it was normal for Ling'er not to be able to see through it, so she immediately sat up straight and said:

"This is a clone, we have to leave!"

Ling'er didn't expect such a scene, so he was stunned for a moment and then said:

"I used my spiritual veins to move hundreds of miles, and the Crystal Palace has a formation to isolate it from detection. Is he sure he can track me here?"

"Be careful in everything. If you don't want to be caught by the demon cultivators, or captured by those monks, you'd better listen to me."

"Ok."

Ling'er nodded, muttered something, then bit her fingertips and popped out a drop of blood on the main entrance of the Crystal Palace.

After receiving her blood, the Crystal Palace immediately shook. Formations like water flow appeared in the Crystal Palace, and at the same time, a moving force slowly emerged.

Seeing this, the woman on the soft couch looked slightly relaxed.

This crystal palace has the effect of moving and is a rare treasure. Unfortunately, even if you kill Ling'er, you can't get it.

Fortunately, this silly girl is looking for a close friend so that she can take advantage of the convenience of the Crystal Palace.

Hum, all the men in the world are pretty, soft, fragrant, white and greasy, so who would listen to her singing?

While she was laughing secretly in her heart, a voice suddenly sounded:

"Where are you two going in such a hurry? Didn't Miss Ling'er say you want to continue singing?"

Upon hearing this, the woman's expression changed drastically, and she immediately activated the formation on the soft couch to protect herself.

The next moment, a flaming cloud appeared and solidified into Chen Yuan's appearance.

Glancing at the pale Siren, Chen Yuan gave her a kind smile.

Then he looked at the woman on the soft couch and said with a playful smile:

"If I'm not mistaken, the fairy should be from Meiwanchi in the North, right?"

After hearing Chen Yuan's words that revealed her true identity, the woman's face became more and more serious, and her beautiful face was full of caution:

"Excuse me, I'm sorry that I couldn't identify this fellow Taoist?"

"I'm just a nobody. It's normal for the fairy not to recognize him. However, I have a doubt. I hope the fairy can clear it up."

The woman hesitated for a moment, sensing that Chen Yuan only had the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul, so she had no chance of winning, and said calmly:

"Fellow Taoist, please tell me."

"As far as I know, everyone in Meiwanchi needs to cultivate with others in order to improve their cultivation. Why are you, Taoist friend, already in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, but you are still a virgin?"

After a pause, Chen Yuan continued:

"Look at the fairy's soul and body. There is no resistance at all, and the essence and spirit are perfectly integrated, so this cannot be a body that has been taken away from the body."

Hearing that this was being asked, the woman looked a little complacent, and then she said slyly:

"This matter is a little secret of the slave family, but it cannot be told to outsiders. I hope fellow Taoists can forgive me."

"You really can't say it?"

"can not say."

"Then let's talk about the incident where Fairy just took action against my clone for no reason."

The woman's face stiffened, and then she said with a sweet smile:

"It's the slave's fault for bumping into fellow Taoist. I would like to apologize to fellow Taoist and hope that fellow Taoist will forgive me this time..."

"I can forgive you, but you have to fulfill what you just said to the clone below."

Hearing this, the woman's face completely darkened: "Fellow Taoist, are you going to hold on to this matter?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and raised his hand.

The bright five-color sword light shot out and pierced the formation on the soft couch, piercing the formation.

But there was a formation that stopped him, and the woman on the soft couch also reacted and crushed the talisman in her hand.

The next moment, her figure disappeared here, and she used the Ten Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman to escape to where she was.

"pity."

Chen Yuan sighed secretly and looked sideways at the sea monster named Ling'er with a kind smile on his face:

"Don't be afraid, Miss Ling'er, I'm not a bad person."
