Chapter 312: Layout started, first round, forehand, backhand, backstab and harvest
Before Xia Lin left the original secret realm, Black Star took Xiao Feng and others, and their target: Lin Xiantian, and left the original secret realm.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Xiantian took the initiative to follow Black Star away.
After the goal is achieved, Black Star does not need to do anything else.
Outside the great world of prehistoric times, the indescribable giant slowly moved away, leaving behind only a scarred world barrier and the pale-faced, exhausted leaders of the immortal sects inside the barrier.
Several people looked at each other in a heavy atmosphere, but no one spoke or said anything.
There are black stars outside and rust inside.
The whole world is at stake.
There is no solution, so there is naturally no need to communicate anything else.
Bai Wudao sighed softly.
"Go back."
…
When Xia Lin left the original secret realm, Bai Wudao, Xuanye and others had already returned to the original secret realm.
"Fortunately, I have accomplished my mission."
Xia Lin held the Original Heavenly Heart in both hands and respectfully handed it to Xuanye, the head of Xuantian Sect.
Xuanye nodded slightly and showed a satisfied smile.
Mosuo looked at the Original Heavenly Heart for a moment, but did not covet it. He just handed the Original Heavenly Heart to Bai Wudao who was standing beside him.
He added to Xia Lin: "Don't worry, disciple. Since you are the one who is destined to suffer the calamity, this item will definitely belong to you."
Xia Lin smiled and didn't say much.
Just as under normal circumstances, it would be reasonable for Lin Fan to give the Original Heavenly Heart to Qu Yiyi.
It is also reasonable for Xia Lin to hand over the Original Heavenly Heart to Xuanye and Bai Wudao at the moment.
All the characters in the virtual Amber Zone were created by Amber Zone and follow the behavioral logic of the original work.
In the original novel, these sect leaders are positive characters without any blemish, so it is destined that they will never get jealous and try to steal the treasure.
The human heart is hard to predict?
Sorry, the minds of the virtual natives in the virtual ember zone are really not hard to predict...
Bai Wudao took the Original Heart and closed his eyes to sense it.
The pattern of the Great Dao unfolded from Bai Wudao's body, colorful like gorgeous ribbons, connecting Bai Wudao and the original Tianxin.
However, under the effects of Concealing the Sky and Crossing the Sea, Bai Wudao not only failed to sense the specific location of the county magistrate, but instead felt a strange fluctuation in the heart of the original sky, pulling at his spirit, consciousness, and even soul, wanting to merge with it! This is a manifestation of being in harmony with the Tao.
It also made Bai Wudao suddenly open his eyes and gasp.
"Failed... I can't locate the source of the rust, and it's even difficult for me to hold the original heart of heaven for too long."
As he said this, Bai Wudao snapped his fingers and sent the Original Tianxin back to Xia Lin's hands.
He stood up and bowed to Xuanye and the other eleventh level people.
"As for the rust disease, I'm afraid we'll have to think of another way."
After saying that, he looked at Xia Lin, with a hint of admiration and regret in his eyes.
I appreciate it because the person who is supposed to be robbed has been found.
"It seems that Junior Brother Xia Lin is the one who is destined to be afflicted. The Original Heavenly Heart is in your hands. Perhaps it can produce a mysterious reaction with your mutated spiritual energy. I hope Junior Brother Xia Lin can find a way to permanently eliminate the rust disease as soon as possible."
Xia Lin immediately returned the gift: "I will definitely live up to the trust of the Immortal."
Unfortunately, it was because of Lin Fan’s death.
It's a pity that he quite admired Lin Fan...but his "fair competition" failed, and he died. There is nothing much to say about this.
…
On the seventh day after returning to Xuantian Sect, Sect Master Xuanye held a ceremony to accept disciples and officially accepted Xia Lin as his last disciple.
On that day, many immortals gathered and the house was full of guests.
At the disciple-recruiting ceremony, Xia Lin announced a piece of news that shocked the entire prehistoric world.
——He has found a way to solve the rust problem.
"It is this skill... I named it Black Iron Mysterious Skill!"
The jade slips were distributed to the guests by the Xuantian Sect’s disciples.
The guests checked with their spiritual sense as they listened to Xia Lin speaking slowly.
"First of all, I have to apologize to everyone in this world. I have failed everyone's trust and expectations..."
Xia Lin said with a heavy expression, "I haven't found the root cause of the rust, nor have I found a way to permanently eradicate it."
Xia Lin uses spiritual energy to cure rust disease, which can solve the problem temporarily, but it cannot guarantee that the recovered person will be permanently immune to rust disease.
Just like the guests at the scene, they have high status and strong strength. Many of them have come to ask for elixirs, but have recently been infected with rust again.
The reason why this disciple-recruiting ceremony was so lively was also due to the fact that many people came to seek medical treatment.
There were voices of comfort all around.
Xia Lin's reputation as a miraculous doctor had long been known, and some people also knew that Xia Lin was the one chosen by the five major immortal sects to respond to the calamity.
But after all, Xia Lin is still a junior after all, and the elders are helpless with rust disease, so it is unreasonable to blame Xia Lin for this.
Xia Lin didn't speak again until everyone had finished comforting him and had finished reading the jade slip in his hand.
"It's really hard for me to solve all the rust cases that have spread by myself."
“So, I changed my thinking.”
"I was wondering if I could turn waste into treasure and create a profound skill that would not only protect practitioners from the troubles of rust disease, but also allow practitioners to use rust disease as nourishment and turn it into the foundation of the immortal path!"
"Just yesterday..." Xia Lin said this, and turned to look at Xuan Tian Sect's headmaster, Xuan Ye: "After Master's guidance, this Black Iron Mysterious Art was officially released."
"If patients with rust disease practice this skill, it will not only solve the problem of rust disease, but also can refine the extra metal organs brought by rust disease into life-saving magic weapons, greatly improving the actual combat ability of practitioners."
Xuanye on the side smiled and nodded, supporting Xia Lin's Black Iron Profound Art.
As for the so-called guidance, there is certainly no such thing.
The Black Iron Profound Art was created entirely by Xia Lin alone. Xuanye at most checked the Profound Art after it was created. Only after making sure that there were no problems did he agree to Xia Lin announcing the news of the Black Iron Profound Art at the current disciple-recruiting ceremony.
There were many immortals present, and there were even two at level eleven, as a gesture of giving face to Xuanye.
After briefly studying Fan Xialin's Black Iron Mysterious Skill, he was immediately impressed.
"This skill is amazing, it's really amazing!"
"From the perspective of its concept, the level of this skill is just average, but after a simple verification, I found that what Junior Brother Xia Lin said is true. This skill can indeed suppress rust disease."
"It's just that the principles inside seem to be different from the current immortal system..." said an eleventh-level immortal, looking at Xia Lin: "I wonder if my nephew can help me solve this puzzle?"
He asked the question, but Xia Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I can't explain this."
Then he took out the words he had prepared long ago: "As you all know, I once suffered from rust disease, but I recovered inexplicably. Since then, my spiritual energy has mutated and turned into an antidote to rust disease."
"The root of the Black Iron Mysterious Art is the mutated spiritual energy in my body... But I don't understand why my spiritual energy has mutated. I just copied and compiled this Black Iron Mysterious Art. I know some details but not the reasons."
No one can find fault with this explanation.
Suddenly there was another sound.
But it was the master of Watchtower, Wang Dao.
He held the jade slip and bowed solemnly to Xia Lin: "My nephew Xia, this is a move that can be called a saint! There are countless disciples in my sect who suffer from rust disease. With this magical skill, their lives can be saved."
It is reasonable to find a few people to host a new product launch.
Xia Lin smiled and nodded to Wang Dao, then added: "This Black Iron Mysterious Skill is not only effective for cultivators! Those who suffer from rust disease, regardless of whether they have spiritual roots, can use this skill to embark on the path of cultivation!"
This sentence is the real bombshell! …
Just a few days later, the Black Iron Mysterious Art spread throughout the entire prehistoric world under the promotion of the Xuantian Sect.
This is not only the antidote to rust, but also the stepping stone to immortality.
Countless people without spiritual roots were grateful to Xia Lin and many of them erected monuments to pass on his knowledge.
I don't know who started it, but Xia Lin was given a nickname that was recognized by people all over the world.
——Teacher of the world!
"Well done, Scarlett, I like that nickname!"
Just one month later, during a secret meeting between Xia Lin and Scarlett, Xia Lin said this to Scarlett with a smile.
So the origin of this nickname is clear at a glance.
Xia Lin's self-directed and self-acted...
Scarlett smiled.
With Qu Yiyi's identity and relying on Qu Yiyi's channels, it would be a piece of cake to quietly add some rhythm.
And in this game, Scarlett's main role is not to set the pace.
Her greatest contribution lies in the Black Iron Mysterious Art.
"The Black Source has its own wonders, and the Immortal Path has its own wonders."
His predecessor was the Guardian of Black Source, and he knew the existence of Black Source best in the Black Flag dungeon.
He is currently an eleventh-level celestial being, a powerful immortal.
Combining the two, it is not difficult to create the Black Iron Mysterious Art.
But after laughing, a hint of curiosity appeared on Scarlett's face.
"I was wondering, if you didn't have Qu Yiyi's identity and her immortal experience, how would you have handled this game?"
Xia Lin spoke slowly while sipping the spiritual tea handed to him by Irene.
"If it weren't for you, I would probably have used the identity of the one who should be robbed to make a name for myself in this game."
"The effect of this is definitely much worse than that of the world's master."
Xia Lin blinked and looked at Scarlett: "Anyway, you helped me solve a lot of troubles."
Scarlett smiled sweetly.
To share Xia Lin's worries, this is the meaning of the servant's existence.
After drinking the spiritual tea in one gulp, Xia Lin put down the teacup and spoke softly.
"And now, the preparations are over. I'm going to take action."
Just as he finished saying this, Xia Lin had already opened the attribute panel.
The shadow of the balance flashed by behind Xia Lin.
He cleared the Five Ghosts Moving Technique from the regular skill column, and bought back the skill that he had relied on for a long time from the recipe book.
Backstab!
Just at the moment when the backstab returned to its position, a huge number of prompt sounds rang in Xia Lin's ears.
[Backstab effect takes effect!] 】
[You backstabbed the force you belong to: Xuantian Sect, you backstabbed the force you belong to: Xiuxian World, you backstabbed the force you belong to: Honghuang World! 】
[The backstab effect is assessed as: extremely bad! 】
[You have obtained all attributes: 1000 points! 】
Same tip, jump every 3 seconds! Just after the prompt sounded several times, Xia Lin's wild laughter suddenly broke out from the dimensional gap temporarily created by Scarlett.
"That's right! That's right!!"
“This is exactly what I want!”
…
Q: What is the purpose of the Ash Walker entering the Ashes? Answer: Fools seek missions, strong men seek power! Every trip to the Ember Zone is an adventure and an opportunity! And with Xia Lin's greedy character, it is impossible for him to set his goals on basic things like staying alive and completing the main mission!
He wants to become stronger.
The sooner the better!
And the previous experience in the Black Flag Ashes has already shown the fastest way to become stronger in the Ashes: harvest the entire Ashes! After the county magistrate was born and obtained the Black Source. The End of This World skill, Xia Lin's harvesting plan was officially formed! "Backstab and Black Source Infection!"
This forehand and backhand operation perfectly meets the limit-breaking conditions of backstab! On the one hand, Xia Lin took the initiative to spread the black source pollution, on the other hand, he became a medical expert and a person who was destined to be calamity.
And there is such a logic in this.
——It is not enough to simply spread black source pollution.
Because of this operation, they can only backstab Xia Lin's camp - Xuantian Sect.
How many people are there in Xuantian Sect? How many backstab attributes can be provided to Xia Lin? If Xia Lin wants to do it, he must make it bigger and stronger and maximize the profits!
"This is why I must gain identity, reputation, and status in this Ash Zone."
"It's not just to resolve Lin Xiantian's identity as the protagonist. Even in the initial plan, this is secondary... The main purpose is to find a camp for myself!"
After explaining this, Xia Lin looked at Scarlett and said, "If I didn't have your Black Iron Mysterious Art, I would have to use my identity as a person who is destined to be calamity to bind myself to the righteous path and the billions of people in the Great World of Primordial Desolation, in order to gain the blessing of my faction."
"But if we do this, the efficiency won't be very high. After all, ordinary people without cultivation probably won't recognize or care about the term 'people who are destined to be calamities'."
"On the other hand, the world's master is very good... Black Iron Mysterious Art has opened the door to immortality for ordinary people without spiritual roots, and it also has the effect of curbing rust disease. This is closely related to everyone in this Cinders District."
With this operation, Xia Lin's reputation quickly reached the maximum, and his reputation was so prosperous that it was not even lower than level 11! And it has been proven in the January Dream Zone: the higher the status, the better the backstab effect!
With such forehand and backhand operations, the limit-breaking effect of backstab reaches its theoretical peak! It took Xia Lin three minutes to say this.
The prompt sound jumped 60 times in a row, providing Xia Lin with a full 60,000 limit-breaking attributes! And this is just the beginning.
The next Jhin time is nearly 9 years away! Even if later, as the plan progresses, the backstab effect becomes weaker, one can imagine the attributes that Xia Lin can reap from this!
Irene on the side was confused again.
The little girl washed the fruit and placed it in front of Xia Lin. She fed Xia Lin a grape-shaped spiritual fruit and asked.
"Can the Black Iron Mysterious Skill compiled by my sister really solve the Black Source infection?"
As the guardian of the Black Source, Irene didn't care about Xia Lin's harvesting plan, but she cared about the problem of Black Source infection. In her heart, Black Source was the most powerful. She was a little dissatisfied that the Black Source could be solved with the power of immortality...
Without Xia Lin saying anything, Scarlett said, "The power of the immortal way can most likely cure the black source infection... but this is not something that a level 11 cultivator can do. It may require the intervention of a level 12 immortal, or even a cultivator of a higher level."
The power of the immortal way is even stronger than the black source.
Scarlett has a say in this.
After all, Xiandao is a power system directly under one of the six pillars, so it is normal that the power of the black source cannot match it.
"But in this cinder zone, no one can solve the black source pollution."
After saying that, Scarlett smiled and said, "As for this Black Iron Mysterious Skill, not only can it not solve the problem of black source pollution, but it will make the pollution situation worse again."
"Worsened again?"
Irene didn't understand these four words...
It is said in the outside world that Xia Lin is the master of the world and is even about to be canonized as a saint... One of the reasons is that the Black Iron Mysterious Art has solved the problem of rust.
So now you say that the Black Iron Mystical Art will make the pollution situation worse again?
Those who have recovered will not recognize this from you.
Xia Lin and Scarlett looked at each other and smiled.
"This involves the second step of the plan..."
Xia Lin didn't say what the second step of the plan was. Although Irene was curious, she didn't ask.
As if he had thought of something, Xia Lin turned around and looked at Scarlett again.
"Two days ago, Bao Bowen contacted me and gave me an explanation about the Black Star incident."
Scarlett raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "What do you mean?"
"Resurrection from the dead..."
Xia Lin shrugged his shoulders, his tone rather helpless: "Old Bao has invested a lot of money this time, and it may be because of my relationship with Brother Bai Yao...he proposed this."
"Let me die at the hands of Black Star, Black Star will take the bounty, and as compensation, Lao Bao will give me two resurrection items."
To put it bluntly, it means using two resurrection items to buy Xia Lin's current life.
This satisfied Black Star's demands, but it was too much of a blow to Xia Lin.
After all, under the professional system, any resurrection item has huge limitations.
It is necessary to weaken the attributes. If things go wrong, profession, skills, talents, racial values, etc. will have to be paid as the price for resurrection.
"Actually, Lao Bao's sincerity is quite good..."
The negative effects of the two resurrection items are not that great - the racial value and all attributes are halved.
Two in exchange for Xia Lin's life seems to be a reasonable deal.
Of course, there is no need to say much about Xia Lin’s choice.
"The key point is that Black Star is really taking advantage of others."
Having said this, Xia Lin looked at Scarlett and said, "We have to teach him a lesson..."
"It can be considered as a warm-up before the second step of the plan begins."
After hearing what Xia Lin said, Scarlett's smile slowly disappeared.
Her eyes were dim, as if she was thinking of the two figures that appeared in Qu Yiyi's memory at the end of her life.
It is separation and brings punishment and disaster.
These two people are essentially Black Star's lackeys.
And they are all closely related to the main quest.
The main quest requires Xia Lin to survive in this ashes zone for ten years.
But in the ninth year, the black star will devour the world.
The plot line has been disrupted now. Xia Lin guessed that Xu Haonan, Bao Bowen and his group probably would not watch the Black Star Devour the World successfully and turn everyone, including the Cinder Walker, into part of themselves.
But what if? What if Bao Bowen made a mistake and failed to control Black Star?
What if Xu Haonan wants to see something more fun? It was impossible for Xia Lin to entrust this matter entirely to Bao Bowen and others.
“As Black Star’s lackeys, Xing Jie and Zheng Li, the Black Martial Alliance and the Ancient Demon Sect are the promoters of Black Star’s Devouring World.”
The timing of the World Devouring's arrival actually does not depend on Black Star, but on the Black Martial Alliance and the Ancient Demon Sect, two of Black Star's lackeys.
Having said this, Xia Lin's eyes flashed with a cold light.
“Although right now, we probably don’t need to care when the black star will devour the world…”
"But it's better for these two dogs to die."
"Just think of it as teaching Black Star a lesson in advance."
