Chapter 249: Father by Day, Daoist Partner by Night?



This plan has too many benefits and too great an impact; it is a key step in Xiao Linlin's strategic plan.

Jia Zhengyi wasn't stupid either. After pondering for a moment, his eyes brightened. He figured out the key point and couldn't help but exclaim, "Damn! I get it! I understand!"

"Three hundred years later, and another three hundred years later, I'll have become the sect leader of an immortal sect. Will I still not be able to obtain the Immortal Inquiry Source Stone?"

Jia Zhengyi understood. Xiao Linlin nodded with satisfaction and handed him the elixir: "Take it, then leave. Don't bother seeing me off."

"Speaking of which, where should I go to find a celestial sect?"

“I think Brother Jia is more suitable to solve this problem than I am; this is the job of the information provider.”

"Oh yeah, that's what I do."

Jia Zhengyi slapped his forehead and laughed, "I was so excited that I almost forgot what I do for a living."

After saying this, he unsealed the bottle, tilted his head back, and drank the spiritual liquid.

In an instant, he was filled with spiritual light, and a torrent of immortal power swept through his body, causing him to undergo a continuous transformation.

This is definitely divine power!

Su Lin's senses were very sharp, and he almost instantly realized that the spiritual liquid contained extremely powerful and profound energy. This was a basic substance that was modified by a higher power system using special means to transform biological structures.

It truly lives up to its SSS-level quality; it's definitely worth the price.

"Let's go, Lao Ni!"

Jia Zhengyi, radiating light, excitedly and boldly pulled the mimic next to him: "Let's join forces and conquer the world!"

"Shouldn't we wait a little longer, at least until the effects of the medicine wear off?"

Xiao Linlin asked, but Jia Zhengyi had already turned around and left Xiaoyun Temple with the mimic.

"He's in a lot of a hurry; he seems to really like this new job."

Xiao Linlin shook her head, then suddenly smiled: "It seems we were all wrong before. The thing that suits Brother Jia best is not information warfare, but behind enemy lines."

As the Su Lin squad continues to grow stronger, the role of the information provider as a follower has become less important, as any strong individual will not rely too much on others to detect threats.

This is also why Jia Zhengyi increasingly felt that he had no status in the team and that everyone was gradually being forgotten.

Fortunately, Xiao Linlin was resourceful enough to find him a new direction, which was of great significance to the team.

Su Lin was still uneasy, so he flew to the top of the main hall and looked in the direction where Jia Zhengyi and the mimic had left.

The boy was radiating a brilliant light, shining brightly like a light bulb.

The light bulb swayed and bounced in the woods on the way down the mountain, looking excited, like a bird released from its cage.

Fortunately, the Mimic is resourceful and has long since transformed into Li Xingtian, possessing combat power on par with Li Xingtian, which is enough to ensure their safety along the way.

Su Lin watched Jia Zhengyi walk away until he was far away, then he floated down and returned to Xiao Linlin's side: "Are you really that confident in him? What if something goes wrong? If we meet again, we'll only be able to go back to the waiting area."

If anything goes wrong in this kind of situation, there is only one word: death. It might even implicate the small outpost of Xiaoyun Temple.

Su Lin wasn't afraid of the latter, but he was worried that Jia Zhengyi's enthusiasm would be dampened by defeat, making it difficult for him to achieve anything in future matches.

“Brother, he’s not bad. We should at least give him a new chance.”

Xiao Linlin looked up at the moon in the sky, observing it with great interest, and murmured, "He is considered a veteran in the team. It's time for him to have a new opportunity. As long as he seizes the opportunity in this match, he can be reborn."

"It seems you've given him a lot of opportunities. I thought you always disliked Jia Zhengyi."

"No way, they're all working for my brother, so I treat them all the same."

Xiao Linlin pouted in dissatisfaction. Su Lin smiled slightly and asked, "You bought that spiritual liquid without telling me. Did you really intend to use it yourself?"

"Of course, I also have my own selfish reasons; I also want to cultivate immortality!"

"Um."

Su Lin nodded, somewhat relieved: "If you put it that way, you probably bought more than one bottle, right?"

He did have a preference and cared more about Xiao Linlin.

"I bought three bottles, but there's a purchase limit."

Xiao Linlin sighed helplessly and muttered, "There are a lot more good things in this Grade B area, but most of them are subject to purchase limits, so you can't buy too many."

"Hey, Brother Lu."

Xiao Linlin turned to look at Lu Zhouming and suddenly asked, "Do you think this is the game system deliberately making things difficult for us? We clearly agreed that the game would help humanity, so why aren't we getting more good stuff?"

Lu Zhouming smiled without saying a word, only shaking his head.

Xiao Linlin understood, raising an eyebrow slightly: "Oh? Is it because of the overall system that he can't cheat too blatantly?"

"More or less, that's part of the reason."

Lu Zhouming nodded in agreement. If the escape game were truly about unlimited power, the survivors would have become superhuman long ago, so why would they have to struggle repeatedly between life and death?

"Linlin, you and your senior sister can share the remaining two bottles."

Su Lin spoke up from the side, her tone soft but firm.

He rarely took the initiative to intervene in team decisions without consulting Xiao Linlin.

"Brother, there's a bottle for you."

Xiao Linlin was taken aback and looked up at Su Lin: "Neither my senior sister nor I are in a hurry, especially my senior sister... she should at least have no problem surviving the first three hundred years."

“Brother, you must not let your emotions get the better of you at this time. You must not neglect your own advancement just because you are taking care of your servants.”

Xiao Linlin was about to persuade him, but saw Su Lin slowly shake his head: "I'm not doing this out of kindness, it's just that it doesn't mean much to me."

"Even if the spiritual liquid were used on me and gave me an SSS-level new immortal cultivation physique, the improvement wouldn't be much, and it would even hinder my own path."

Su Lin paused, then added, "Moreover, a Heavenly Rank Foundation Establishment is essentially equivalent to the highest level of cultivation aptitude, so there is no need for additional physical enhancements."

Su Lin was not arrogant; this was a truth he had realized long ago.

Not to mention that the physique bestowed by the mechanism is itself part of the "external force," even if one truly possesses it, it is not necessarily a good thing for oneself, especially for a cultivator like Su Lin who already has comprehension.

Cultivating immortality emphasizes inner enlightenment, requiring one to absorb and refine every bit of knowledge oneself, and it is most taboo to force growth midway.

Moreover, Su Lin's foundation as a Heavenly-grade Foundation Establisher was already incredibly solid. What he lacked was not a new physique, but a deeper level of enlightenment, the inspiration that a physique could not provide.

"Can that damn spiritual liquid really give me a physique as strong as my natural talent?"

Li Xingtian suddenly interjected, holding the wine pot halfway up, his old eyes slightly narrowed, revealing a faint contempt: "Lin'er is only slightly inferior to me, why bother to take the long way around and use evil tricks."

The grandmaster was extremely proud and looked down on all external forces, seeking only his own breakthrough.

He didn't even care about Su Qingyang's miracle of breaking through from demonic possession, let alone the external forces bestowed by these mechanisms.

"That's true."

Xiao Linlin pursed her lips, feeling somewhat relieved.

There are some things we really don't need to give to these two monsters in the house.

The best course of action for so-called monsters is to leave them alone; the path these people walk is completely different from that of ordinary people.
