I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world
Chapter 1617 A brief test of skills
As soon as the blow was successful, Chen Lin roughly knew the strength of the warriors here. Without hesitation, he controlled the mermaid sword and wiped out the remaining people in a few back and forth, and then retreated.
"Since your friends are here, why bother leaving in a hurry?"
As a deep voice sounded, a middle-aged man in white appeared in front of Chen Lin.
Chen Lin paused and did not speak.
"Haha, your illusion is indeed mysterious, but it can't blind my senses, so there's no need to hide."
The middle-aged man in white looked at Chen Lin's position and sneered at Po Xingzang.
"You are Qi Yuanbai?"
Chen Lin put away his illusion skills and looked at the other person up and down.
This person's physical skills, sensing ability, and character are far from comparable to that of Sun Xinglun. It seems that there are also differences in levels among the magical people here.
However, they are all in four directions, and there is no reason why they are there.
"You know me?"
The eyes of the middle-aged man in white moved slightly.
"So, my friend came prepared?"
"Knowing too much is not good for you. If I were you, I would hide in the house and not come out."
"Hahaha!"
"hide?"
"Your Excellency is quite serious. I, Qi Yuanbai, have not known how to write hidden characters since I came out of the mountain. So I will ask Your Excellency to teach me today!"
The man in white smiled in anger.
Then with a wave of his hand, a chain of light appeared out of thin air and instantly reached Chen Lin's head.
When Chen Lin saw this, his mind moved, and a small soul shield appeared, blocking the light chain.
It only blocked it for a moment and was directly penetrated.
However, it also created an opportunity for Chen Lin to evade and ducked several feet away.
But what he didn't expect was that the light chain released by the other party actually followed him like a shadow, and came to him again in a flash.
This magical power is like a treasure, it can be maintained for a long time and can track the target!
In desperation, Chen Lin could only condense the small soul shield again. At the same time, with a flick of his finger, the mermaid sword turned into a beautiful shadow and fought back against Qi Yuanbai.
"Exotic treasure? What a pity, the speed is too slow!"
Qi Yuanbai's face showed a strange color, and he dodged the Mermaid Sword in a flash.
Seeing such a scene, Chen Lin did not control the mermaid sword to continue attacking. The disadvantage of this small sword is that it is slow. As long as the movement is fast enough, it is difficult to hit the target.
But he didn't care either.
The reason why he didn't take action first was because he wanted to try to see how strong the magical power was here. Now that he had the answer, there was no need to get entangled with the other party.
Thinking of this, Chen Lin's eyebrows swelled, and a pale eyeball appeared.
"Alternative magical power, wait, who are you!"
As soon as the strange sign of the death gaze came out, Qi Yuanbai sensed it and immediately spoke urgently.
However, Wei Li was faster than him.
The moment the pale eyeball appeared, it enveloped him, and a wave of death quickly swallowed up his life.
"impossible……"
Qi Yuanbai struggled for a while, but he could not drive away the death intention no matter what, and soon his life was cut off.
The light chain of the lightning whip also disappeared.
Chen Lin was slightly startled.
The death gaze rarely kills the enemy directly. He also planned to kill the opponent with the mermaid sword, but he avoided trouble.
Immediately he suddenly understood again.
The cultivators here are incomparable with the outside world. Apart from their weird appearance, they are actually just ordinary people. Even those with supernatural powers are at most comparable to Fayuan cultivators, and their resistance to the death gaze is naturally not that strong.
Chen Lin touched his eyebrows.
This unique technique really surprised him time and time again.
However, here, it is still more or less suppressed, the power is reduced, and it can only be used once, and then it takes at least half an hour to recover.
Or it can only be used as a trump card, not a conventional means.
Putting away his thoughts, Chen Lin first went to the building complex to take a look. He saw no one else, so he returned and gathered all the bodies together.
After searching for the loot, he took out the zombie water and disposed of everything.
Taking advantage of the night, I walked around the city for a while before returning to the second lady's residence.
"How's it going? Was it successful?"
The second young lady was waiting anxiously in the courtyard. When she saw Chen Lin suddenly appearing, she was startled at first, and then immediately stepped forward to ask nervously.
Chen Lin took out two items.
One is Sun Xinglun's guard chief's token, and the other is Qi Yuanbai's clothing.
"This is?"
The captain of the guard knew the second lady, but Qi Yuanbai's clothes made her confused. In her impression, Sun Xinglun never seemed to wear white robes, and the clothes were too big, so they definitely did not belong to Sun Xinglun.
"I met the Qi Yuanbai you mentioned. Let's deal with it together to avoid any trouble later."
Chen Lin said casually.
When the second young lady heard this, she stood blankly on the spot.
"Why, Qi Yuanbai can't be killed?\
,"Seeing the other party's reaction, Chen Lin frowned slightly.
He immediately said: "You didn't remind me about this. It's none of my business. The remuneration mentioned before must not be less!"
"No, no."
The second lady waved her hands repeatedly.
His expression changed for a while, and he bowed deeply to Chen Lin.
"Thank you, sir, for avenging me. You must be tired, sir. Please go and rest first. The treasure I mentioned before is not in this courtyard. I have hidden it in a secret place. I will get it and give it to you tomorrow."
"good."
Chen Lin nodded.
He knew that the other party wanted to confirm and couldn't tell what he said.
The next day.
The entire Zhou Mansion became noisy.
The originally peaceful courtyard was now crowded with people, and all the guards were dispatched, looking very nervous.
The second young lady returned from outside, surprised and happy, and suppressed her excitement and came to Chen Lin's room.
"How is it? Have you confirmed it?"
Chen Lin asked calmly.
"Don't misunderstand, sir. I don't mean to disbelieve you. I really went to get the treasure for you."
After that, she took out a jade pendant from the embroidered bag and handed it to Chen Lin respectfully.
Chen Lin's eyes lit up.
Although this jade pendant is also square, there is a dark gold pattern in the middle, like an earthworm, winding and circling.
Arc!
Anything with an arc must be something that breaks the rules of this place. This jade pendant may be able to be taken out.
"What treasure is this?"
Chen Lin took the jade pendant in his hand and did not try it rashly.
"This is my mother's relic. The third lady has been plotting to get this thing. It is a rare treasure that can absorb the power of the moonlight and form a strange rune. After refining, you can get an alternative magical power."
"Alternative magical power?"
Chen Lin pretended to be surprised.
"What kind?"
Qi Yuanbai mentioned alternative magical powers. Now he mentioned it again, which means that alternative magical powers are more powerful than ordinary magical powers.
The second lady shook her head.
"I don't know either. This thing was obtained by my mother from the holy land. She has never been able to refine it. But you also know that the magical jade talisman that appears in the holy land, as long as it is golden, as long as it can be successfully refined, it must be an alternative magical power. There is no mistake."
Chen Lin nodded slightly, showing a clear look.
But in his heart, he was wondering where the holy land was. He didn't see it in the classics he consulted.
"Okay, the thing meets the requirements, and we will settle the money and goods."
Chen Lin put away the jade pendant and prepared to leave Zhou's house.
Having been delayed for these days, his exploration progress is much slower than others. Now there is another holy land, and he also needs to go and see it.
Since it is called a holy land, it should be the core of the city, and there must be high-level treasures.
"Don't leave in a hurry, sir. I have something to ask for."
The second lady's eyes flashed, and her small mouth opened gently to stop Chen Lin.
"What else? I don't want to make a deal to kill people again."
Chen Lin directly sealed the topic.
The Zhou family lost an important figure like Qi Yuanbai, and it might be in chaos for a while. Although he was not afraid that the other party would find out about him, he didn't want to get involved in this quagmire.
"Do you know, sir, why can my Zhou family stand in this city for more than a thousand years and compete with other major forces?"
"Why?"
Chen Lin became interested and asked casually.
"It's a pipe with a peculiar shape!"
The second lady spoke in a serious voice.
"My father, as the head of the Zhou family, is only first-rate in strength and has not reached the level of a master. Even if he has the Earth Spirit Sword, he is not enough to compete with other forces."
"But outsiders don't know that in addition to the Earth Spirit Sword, my family also has a pipe that has been passed down. By lighting special tobacco, you can summon the gods."
"In the past, the family suffered several disasters and relied on the help of the gods to overcome the difficulties. Therefore, the outside world believes that there is a powerful ancestor with supernatural powers in my family."
"What do you mean?"
Chen Lin asked with interest.
"I want to make a deal with you, sir."
The second lady looked at Chen Lin.
Seeing that Chen Lin didn't speak, she said to herself: "I want to ask you to help me ascend to the position of the head of the family. The pipe treasure and the method of using it will be presented with both hands!"
"You want to be the head of the family?"
Chen Lin was quite surprised.
This little girl is quite courageous and whimsical enough.
"Forget it, I'm just a small assassin, I'm good at killing people, but I don't have the ability to seize power and usurp the throne."
"I just want you to kill someone!"
"Who to kill, your father?"
Chen Lin looked at the other party with a smile, he didn't believe that the other party was so cruel.
But he guessed wrong.
The second lady's face changed, and then she nodded heavily.
"Yeah."
Without waiting for Chen Lin to react, she said in a gloomy tone: "Although he is my father, I have never been sure to treat him as a daughter since I was a child. Even the number of times I have met him is less than one palm. My mother's death was also due to his acquiescence. He is not worthy of being my father!"
Chen Lin did not comment.
The Zhou family is not a small family. In addition to the other party's father, there are several branches.
The other party is alone. Unless he kills all the people with the surname Zhou, the position of the head of the family will never be his.
And for a rare treasure, there is no need to make such a big fuss.
If he wants it, he can just go and get it secretly. Helping the other party to seize the position of the head of the family, even if successful, will inevitably attract attention from all sides, which will be detrimental to his next actions.
"If you think the reward is not enough, I can add more. Just ask for what you need."
"I don't want anything, and I don't have the ability. You can find another expert!"
Chen Lin refused again.
The disappointment flashed in the eyes of the second lady.
Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breath and said, "The opening time of the holy land is coming soon. As long as you help me win the position of the head of the family, our Zhou family's quota to enter the holy land will be given to you!"
