Seven days later, Tianqing Market.

Zhou Tianyi, dressed in a green shirt, and Liu Ruoqin, dressed in a purple skirt and a lavender veil, went to the famous Tianqing Teahouse in Fangshi together.

In the private room on the top floor of the teahouse, a handsome young man in a purple robe was leaning on a wooden chair, admiring the ever-changing sea of ​​clouds outside the building while stroking the silver-haired kitten in his arms.

No, it's not a cat. Judging from the body proportions of the silver cub, it should be a young exotic tiger!

But I have never seen this silver hair before. Could it be some strange bloodline?

While thinking this, Zhou Tianyi sat down opposite the purple-robed young man with Fairy Liu.

"Junior Brother Zhou, Junior Sister Liu, you are very punctual!"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and stood up from the recliner. The silver tiger cub in his arms immediately leaped onto the tea table, squatted there obediently, and licked its silver tiger paws with its tongue.

But for some reason, Zhou Tianyi always felt that this little thing was staring at him, and its eyes seemed to have some ill intentions.

Before he could think about it, Lin Zhongtian smiled, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for each of them.

"This is the famous third-grade spiritual tea of ​​Tianqing Tea House, Bi Tianqing. I have tasted it and it tastes good and has abundant spiritual energy. Drinking one cup can equal ten years of hard training for an ordinary Jindan cultivator. Come, have a taste!"

“… Senior Brother Lin spent a lot of money!”

Zhou Tianyi showed gratitude on his face, took the teacup handed to him by Lin Zhongtian and put it on the table.

Not only him, but also Liu Ruoqin next to him, neither of them seemed to have any intention of drinking tea.

Lin Zhongtian glanced at them and said with a half-smile, "Why don't you drink? Are you worried that Senior Brother will drug you?"

Zhou Tianyi smiled and said, "Brother Lin, what are you talking about? This is such a good tea. Even if it has been added with ingredients, we must taste it. However, the Xuanyuan Pill that Brother Lin gave me before is too powerful. In addition to stabilizing our realm, our magic power has also improved. If we drink this tea and have another breakthrough in our realm, won't it delay Brother Lin's plan?"

“…”

The smile on Lin Zhongtian's face faded and he looked fixedly into Zhou Tianyi's eyes.

Seeing that he looked calm and his face remained unchanged, Lin Zhongtian suddenly smiled and put down the teapot in his hand.

"Okay, then I won't drink it. But you should still accept this pot of tea. After all, it cost me a lot of spirit stones!"

Zhou Tianyi shook his head and said, "The third-level spiritual tea is too precious, so you should take it away yourself..."

...Is it necessary to be so cautious if I don't even want the free opportunity?

Lin Zhongtian curled his lips and complained in his heart, but he still smiled and asked: "In that case, then all right - let's end the small talk and talk about business. Do you have anything else to prepare?"

Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Everything is ready... But Senior Brother, why don't I see you bringing that old servant with you?"

"He is not a descendant of the Four Seas Sect, and the cultivation method he practices has nothing to do with the Four Seas Sect. There are only three of us on this trip."

As he spoke, Lin Zhongtian looked at the well-behaved silver tiger cub on the table, smiled and patted its head: "At most, add this one."

Zhou Tianyi's heart moved, and he asked calmly: "This little tiger looks quite strange, could it be Senior Brother's pet?"

Lin Zhongtian nodded and said casually, "Yes, it's called Chang'an."

"... Chang'an?"

Zhou Tianyi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Lin Zhongtian raised the corner of his mouth and explained with a smile: "This little fellow had a very rough life in the first half of his life. He suffered many disasters right after he was born. After I met him, I hoped that he would live a long and peaceful life in the future, so I named him Chang'an."

…Turns out it was just a coincidence!

Zhou Tianyi suddenly realized and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When he first heard the name Chang'an, he thought Senior Brother Lin was also a time traveler.

Fortunately, fortunately...

Noticing Zhou Tianyi's mood swings, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but feel happy.

From time to time, he would use things and memories from his past life to stimulate this fellow villager, just to see when the other party would recognize his identity as a time traveler.

By the way, give this fellow villager some excitement of ups and downs.

Zhou Tianyi was not aware of Lin Zhongtian's evil taste. After calming down, he asked softly, "Brother Lin, when are we leaving?"

Lin Zhongtian waved his hand, letting the silver tiger cub jump into his arms. He stroked its head and said with a smile: "If possible, of course it's now!"

Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin looked at each other again and nodded.

Soon, the group of three left the Tianqing Teahouse and came to the teleportation hall of Tianqing Market.

Basically every large market town has an institution similar to a teleportation hall, which contains multiple large teleportation arrays that can teleport to other large markets or even other sea areas.

The three of them walked into the teleportation hall, Liu Ruoqin paid the spirit stones, and then they walked into a teleportation array.

There is a silver stone tablet in the center of the teleportation array, with four big characters written on it - Ten Thousand Ghosts Sea.

The next moment, a silver light lit up and engulfed the bodies of the three people on the teleportation array.

During the transmission, Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin, who had just formed their golden elixirs, felt dizzy because of their low realms and were unable to stay awake in the ultra-long-distance transmission array.

When they regained consciousness, they found themselves in a black palace filled with an eerie atmosphere.

Lin Zhongtian had already left the teleportation array and was now standing at the door, looking outside with interest.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin couldn't help but look solemn.

There is no doubt that Lin Zhongtian's cultivation is definitely more advanced than they originally expected!

Unlike the Tianqing Market, the market in front of him was obviously more prosperous, but Zhou Tianyi felt very uncomfortable because most of the cultivators walking on the streets of the market were ghost cultivators with a sinister aura.

The shops on both sides also gave off an eerie ghostly aura, and it was obvious that everything they sold were things that belonged to ghost cultivators.

As soon as Lin Zhongtian and the other two appeared, they attracted the attention of many ghost cultivators.

Most of the monks looked at the three people with malicious scrutiny.

Feeling the gazes of many ghost cultivators, Zhou Tianyi's heart sank, and he immediately transmitted a message.

"Let's go, let's leave this market first!"

“Don’t worry!”

Lin Zhongtian looked at the ghostly monks on the street with a sharp gaze, and said eagerly: "Brother Zhou, the monks here seem to be quite rich. Do you want to find a few fat sheep to slaughter?"

Killing people and stealing treasures, this kind of classic plot has never been experienced by him personally!

The previous Xu Changchun was a counter-attack, and the cultivator from Fuhai Sect knelt immediately. It was meaningless.

Now that we have finally arrived at a place like this where ghost cultivators are everywhere, we must have some fun.

Anyway, each of these ghost cultivators is filled with resentment. If we kill them all, there might be some innocent ones, but if we kill half of them, there will definitely be some that slip through the net!

“…”

Hearing Lin Zhongtian's voice transmission, Zhou Tianyi's cheek muscles couldn't help but twitch.

Hey, brother, is there something wrong with your cognition?

In this sea of ​​thousands of ghosts, we should be the real fat sheep!

Without hesitation, Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin looked at each other, tacitly grasped Lin Zhongtian's arm, and dragged him out of the market.

…

…

Not long after, three beams of light stopped in the sky above a deserted island.

Lin Zhongtian stopped Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin and said unhappily, "That's enough. You didn't let me kill the fat sheep before, and now you're taking me around in circles. I say, Junior Brother Zhou, if this continues, it will take us a long time to enter the secret ruins!"

Zhou Tianyi was somewhat surprised by Lin Zhongtian's impatience.

However, considering that the other party might be a pampered disciple of Fu Hai Sect, Zhou Tianyi still explained in a voice transmission: "Brother Lin, we are outsiders in the Wangui Sea after all. We may have a tail following us. It is better to circle around here a few more times and shake off the tail before-"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Zhongtian waved his hand, and a round ball of bright blue light appeared in the air.

It was the Dinghaizhu, a top-grade magic weapon that Lin Zhongtian snatched... no, it was the Dinghaizhu that was presented to him by the monks of Fuhai Sect.

As soon as it appeared, the Dinghai Pearl turned into a blue stream of light and flew high into the sky behind everyone.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang, and a miserable cry came from the seemingly empty sky.

The screams soon disappeared, and the blue Dinghaizhu flew back to Lin Zhongtian, and the blue light it emitted still covered many storage bags and storage bracelets.

Lin Zhongtian put them all away, looked at Zhou Tianyi and said seriously: "Okay, now that the tail is taken care of, we don't need to beat around the bush, right?"

“…”

Zhou Tianyi and Liu Ruoqin's mouths twitched, they looked at each other silently, and then chased in the direction they came from.

Lin Zhongtian followed closely behind, and soon they arrived at a black sea area.

Liu Ruoqin flipped her hand and took out three thumb-sized dark blue beads.

"The entrance to the ruins is thousands of feet below the seabed. These are three second-level water-repellent beads that can separate the seawater and use magic power to prop up a water-repellent shield. However, the deeper the seawater, the less effective the water-repellent beads will be. When we reach the bottom of the sea thousands of feet below the sea—"

Before she could finish her words, Liu Ruoqin's voice suddenly stopped.

Because three egg-sized third-level water-repellent beads suddenly appeared in Lin Zhongtian's hands.

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "The effect of the second stage is too poor, so you should use mine!"

Liu Ruoqin glanced at the egg-sized water-repellent bead in Lin Zhongtian's hand, then looked at the thumb-sized water-repellent bead in her own palm. She twitched the corner of her mouth and silently put away her own water-repellent bead.

Damn dog owner!

Liu Ruoqin thought angrily in her heart.

Zhou Tianyi looked at her with a comforting look, then took a third-level water-repellent bead from Lin Zhongtian.

A blue light flashed, and the water-repellent beads sprayed out a large blue light, covering the bodies of the three people.

The three of them turned into streams of light and dived into the black sea below, then swam towards the bottom of the sea at an extremely fast speed.

Along the way, all kinds of monsters swam in the black sea water.

Among them are black pythons that are several meters long, giant blue-black sea turtles, and some that look like green fish monsters, but have many translucent ghosts parasitizing on their bodies. They seem to be strange species that are a combination of monsters and ghosts.

Lin Zhongtian's surface was shrouded in blue light, and he looked at the seabed environment with great interest.

From time to time he would wave his hand and release the Dinghai Pearl to capture one or two strange-looking monsters for collection.
