Hearing the yellow-robed monk begging for mercy, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but laugh.
"Do you know how to beg for mercy now?"
"What did you say when those two people begged for mercy just now?"
Hearing Lin Zhongtian's playful words, the yellow-robed cultivator trembled and said in a sad voice: "Senior, those two are disciples of Luoyue Sect. I am just an independent cultivator. How dare I take the risk of letting them go? Killing them is also a helpless act!"
"But it's different, Senior. You are a great cultivator with great magical powers, and I am only at the foundation-building stage. With your cultivation level, you can just impose some restrictions on me and I will be treated like a slave - no, I am willing to be a slave, please spare my life!"
After saying this, the yellow-robed monk kowtowed once again, trembling.
Lin Zhongtian twitched the corner of his mouth and looked thoughtfully at the monk kneeling in front of him.
Judging from this person’s reaction, this world of cultivation seems to be quite dangerous!
At least in this area, killing people and stealing treasures should be the norm.
Otherwise, there would be no need for this person to abandon all dignity just to survive.
Of course, that’s not necessarily the case. Maybe this is just the person’s personality.
After all, he is a casual cultivator, helpless and having to struggle for survival between the sect and the immortal cultivation family. It is normal for his personality to be a little distorted.
Just as Lin Zhongtian was thinking this, the yellow-robed monk who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing suddenly raised his head, opened his mouth and spit out a green light, which shot from bottom to top towards Lin Zhongtian's face.
"bite--"
The green light hit Lin Zhongtian's face and instantly shattered into countless green light spots, drifting away with the wind.
Lin Zhongtian's cheek muscles twitched slightly. He raised his hand and touched his uninjured cheek, then looked at the yellow-robed monk expressionlessly.
The yellow-robed monk widened his eyes and stared at Lin Zhongtian in amazement.
This is his hidden third-level sword talisman!
It’s comparable to a full-strength attack from a cultivator in the late Jindan stage!
The blow hit Lin Zhongtian's face, but didn't even leave a mark.
How is this possible? !
"You dare to spit on me?"
When the faint voice came, the yellow-robed monk suddenly woke up, his body trembling like a sieve, and his lips moved slightly in fear.
"Senior... Please forgive me..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Zhongtian placed his big hand on the yellow-robed monk's head. Thin threads of gray mist flowed into his head, instantly enveloping his soul and exploring all the memories stored in his soul.
Soon, Lin Zhongtian put away his right hand, and the yellow-robed monk who was kneeling in front of him collapsed to the ground.
"Tianhua Realm, Starry Sea, Luoyue Sect..."
Lin Zhongtian had a thoughtful look on his face.
Just as he expected, this is a world of cultivating immortals by stacking boxes.
The world in front of you belongs to the bottom layer of the box, which is the so-called lower world called Tianhua Realm. As long as the cultivators cultivate to the stage of transformation of the gods, they can ascend to the spiritual world by riding the ascension array.
In the spiritual world, one can cultivate to the highest stage of Mahayana, and after overcoming the heavenly tribulation, one can ascend to the immortal world.
As for whether there is a higher-level world above the fairyland, this cultivator in the late stage of foundation building has no idea.
"So which world is this?"
"A Mortal's Journey to Immortality, or some unknown flop online novel world..."
Lin Zhongtian didn't know the answer to this question.
Because no matter which world of immortal cultivation that stacks boxes, there are basically countless lower realms in its worldview.
Even if he really entered a novel about cultivating immortals, unless he traveled directly to the world where the protagonist was, or everyone cultivated to the peak and ascended to the final immortal world together, it would be difficult to determine the specific world.
Lin Zhongtian had never heard of the name Tianhuajie.
So this should not be the world where the protagonist is, at least not the online literature world that he is familiar with.
...Forget it, it doesn’t matter whether it is an online novel about the world of immortal cultivation.
What’s important is that there must be time travelers from my hometown in this world.
This is enough for Lin Zhongtian!
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian turned his gaze to the yellow-robed monk in front of him.
This man's real name is Xu Changchun. He is the last survivor of the Xu family, a family of immortal cultivators on Crescent Island in the Starry Sea. When the Xu family was destroyed, Xu Changchun survived because he privately explored a secret realm.
At that time, Xu Changchun was just a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building.
After learning the news of his family's destruction, Xu Changchun changed his name to Xu Yingqiu, and continued to practice as a casual cultivator while secretly searching for the enemy who had destroyed the Xu family in the past in the Sea of Stars.
I have to say that Xu Changchun is still quite lucky.
Not only did he escape the disaster of extermination of his family, but he also thrived in the nearby waters as a casual foundation-building cultivator, and even won many adventures from the hands of the children of the great sects, making him look like the protagonist of a novel.
It's a pity that he made the most wrong decision at the most important moment.
"I wanted to spare your life..."
Lin Zhongtian showed regret on his face, then waved his hand and took Xu Changchun's storage bag.
As a foundation-building cultivator, Xu Changchun's family background is extremely rich.
Not only did he have more than 12,000 spirit stones, twelve second-level treasures, two third-level treasures, sixteen second-level talismans and three third-level talismans, he even had a broken magic weapon.
With such wealth, even a Jindan cultivator would not have much more than this.
No wonder he could fight one against two and kill two disciples from major sects who were in the foundation-building stage.
A silver light flashed in Lin Zhongtian's palm, and a jade pendant appeared in front of him.
In the jade pendant is the martial arts technique that Xu Changchun practiced, called "Golden Rainbow Gong", which is a gold-based martial arts technique passed down in the Xu family, and can be practiced to the Nascent Soul stage at the highest level.
In addition, there is a technique of refining magical instruments and a technique of combined attack with magical instruments, which can be practiced during the Foundation Establishment Period. Up to one hundred and eight gold coins can be refined and controlled like flying swords.
It can be used separately or combined into a formation for attack. It is very versatile and powerful.
So far, Xu Changchun has only refined thirty-six gold coins.
This magic weapon was used to deal with the two disciples of Luoyue Sect.
Lin Zhongtian watched with great interest, wondering whether he should give it a try.
But soon, he changed his mind.
After all, this is a world of cultivating immortals by stacking boxes, so it’s worth it for him to open another alias.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian put away all of Xu Changchun's belongings, and then turned his attention to the fifth-level purple spiritual bamboo.
In the world of A Chinese Ghost Story, he learned the art of transforming himself into another form from the Black Mountain Demon.
Different from the various magic and spiritual arts in this world, this is a true great supernatural power, comparable to the magic of the fairy world.
It was with the help of this method that Lin Zhongtian refined this body and Zuo Yu's body into a real clone.
And now, he plans to use the same trick again and refine this fifth-level purple spirit bamboo into his own incarnation.
However, the mere fifth-rank purple spirit bamboo is really not worthy of his status.
Lin Zhongtian thought for a moment, waved his hand to shake the space, covering the entire Zizhu Island with the terrifying power of space, setting up a space barrier to isolate the inside and outside, and then extended his right hand to the purple spiritual bamboo in front of him.
In an instant, gray mist surged out from his palm like a dragon.
As soon as the purple spiritual bamboo came into contact with the gray fog, its slender body shook violently, and it immediately greedily absorbed the surrounding gray fog.
In just a moment, the five-foot-long purple spiritual bamboo began to climb up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye it climbed to six feet, seven feet...
Ten minutes later, the purple spiritual bamboo, which had already reached a length of nine feet, stopped growing and began to proliferate horizontally, squeezing out the space of other purple bamboos around it.
After another half a quarter of an hour, the purple spiritual bamboo had reached nine feet in thickness, and then began to continue growing upwards.
This was repeated many times until two hours later. The fifth-order purple spirit bamboo, which was only five feet long, had been transformed by the gray fog into a behemoth that was one hundred and eight feet long and as thick as a jade pillar supporting the sky!
The entire purple bamboo forest was occupied by this purple spiritual bamboo.
All the purple bamboos withered and turned into nutrients for this one purple bamboo.
Looking at the towering purple bamboo in front of him, Lin Zhongtian finally showed a satisfied expression.
Although according to the knowledge he obtained from Xu Changchun's mind, he could no longer judge the exact level of this purple spiritual bamboo, but seeing that it looked like a magic needle that stabilized the sea, it must have reached the pinnacle of this realm.
Lin Zhongtian thought so, and then sat cross-legged next to the purple spirit bamboo, preparing to refine it into an incarnation.
At the same time, the area around Zizhu Island was already filled with dense crowds of people.
Countless cultivators from the Starry Sea rode on various flying magic weapons and surrounded the space barrier of Purple Bamboo Island, looking at the thick purple bamboo on the island with surprise and shock.
Many immortal cultivators divided the areas into different sects or families, and rode on flying boats high in the sky, communicating with each other and discussing things.
In the sky to the north of Zizhu Island, there are five flying boats with crescent-shaped logos engraved on their hulls.
On the flying boat in the center, there was a handsome young man wearing a moon-white robe and with a white crescent mark on his forehead.
Looking at the dense crowds of people around him, the handsome young man's face became uncertain, and he spoke through gritted teeth.
"Damn it, how did this news leak out?"
"Qianshan, go back and thoroughly investigate the Luoyue Sect. I am sure there must be a traitor inside the sect!"
As soon as these words came out, the five monks standing behind the handsome young man looked at each other in surprise.
One of the burly cultivators stepped forward, smiled bitterly and said, "Sect Master, the appearance of this treasure is so impressive that any major sect in the Starry Sea would find it difficult to miss it..."
“…”
The Luoyue Sect leader's mouth twitched when he heard this. He knew this truth very well.
However, the opportunity that originally belonged to their sect alone now has to be shared with many forces in the Star Sea.
How could Qiu Wenzhai, who had just taken office as the leader of Luoyue Sect, be willing to accept this!
The cultivator named Qianshan was very perceptive. Seeing that the sect master had a gloomy face and was silent, he immediately changed the subject.
"Sect Master, what on earth is this purple bamboo? Even if an ordinary purple spiritual bamboo grows for ten thousand years and is promoted to the fifth level, it is only five feet long, but this thing can actually grow to a hundred feet..."
"Could it be a wood-type spiritual root left behind in the upper realm?"
Hearing Qianshan's voice transmission, Sect Master Qiu shook his head grimly and said, "No, it can't be a spiritual root. My Luoyue Sect has also cultivated a water spiritual root in the upper realm, but even if it is a spiritual root of ten thousand years, it can't have such an exaggerated size."
"I conclude that this must be the immortal root left behind by the immortal world!"
