Chapter 356 Exploration

"Senior, why are you so pessimistic? Isn't reincarnation a thing that happens to everyone?"

"Even if you ascend to the spirit world, you may not be able to escape this bondage."

"If you really want to live as long as the heaven and earth, probably only the immortals in the fairy world can do that. But it is extremely difficult for mortals like us to ascend to the spirit world."

"There haven't been many people who have ascended to the immortal realm since ancient times!"

Chen Yun seemed to be touched by something as well. He was silent for a while before saying this.

His words revealed his helplessness and emotion about the cycle of life, and he knew very well that the path to becoming an immortal was difficult.

It is even more difficult to transcend life and death and live as long as heaven and earth.

Even a figure as once glorious as Lord Dayan could not escape the limitation of lifespan.

Therefore, a sense of sadness arose in my heart, and I sighed for the fate of everyone on the road of cultivating immortals.

"Hehe! I'm still unwilling to give up."

"I believe that my aptitude for cultivation and my intelligence are definitely top-notch in the world."

"But in the end, he ended up being transported to the body of a soul-hosting puppet, and only then was he able to linger on."

“If you give me another chance, I think it won’t be too difficult for me to enter the Spiritual Transformation Stage.”

Lord Dayan murmured, his voice getting lower and lower, filled with regret.

His words were filled with resentment at his miserable end. Thinking of his past glory and his current desolation, the gap in his heart made him extremely painful.

Finally, the voice gradually disappeared, as if it was trapped in deep memories and pain.

After hearing these words, Chen Yun felt a little sad for some reason.

Back then, he was a great master who founded a sect in the Far West. He once dominated the southern part of the country and had no rivals. At that time, he must have been more glorious and arrogant than himself.

However, once he was unable to enter the Spirit Transformation Stage, he ended up with such a miserable fate.

This made Chen Yun think about his own future. The road to becoming an immortal is long and full of countless unknowns and difficulties.

He never knew that he would face the same dilemma in the future, which made him feel heavy-hearted and worried about the future.

The current situation of this Great Yan God is very likely a cruel portrayal of his future!

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Chen Yun's face darkened slightly, and he didn't want to say anything more.

I just sat there quietly, watching the auction go on, but my mind had already drifted away and I no longer had the same excitement as when I was looking forward to the auction items.

The auction went on as usual, and the items being auctioned next were much more valuable than the previous ones.

Various rare magic weapons and elixirs with miraculous effects appeared one after another, attracting many monks present to bid for them, and the scene was quite lively.

But there was nothing else that Chen Yun was interested in. He just sat there quietly, watching everyone scramble for it, but he no longer had the desire to participate.

When the auction came to the last few magic weapons and elixirs, Chen Yun was unwilling to stay any longer.

He immediately stood up and left the auction hall under the surprised gazes of the two women beside him.

The action was very decisive, without any hesitation, and then he left gracefully.

The figure quickly disappeared at the exit of the auction house, leaving only slightly puzzled looks from the people around him.

After walking out of the hall, Chen Yun did not look at the things displayed on other stalls.

Instead, he walked straight out of the square and then walked slowly among the attics and courtyards, looking absent-minded.

His eyes were a little wandering, as if he was thinking about something important.

He turned a deaf ear to the bustling scenes and shouts around him, and just walked silently, immersed in his own thoughts.

Occasionally, I would meet other foreign monks and some children of noble families at the trade fair.

No one paid any attention to him. After all, there were many people coming and going, and Chen Yun did not look particularly eye-catching.

He is just an ordinary monk among many monks.

However, Chen Yun gradually walked slowly towards some more remote and less populated places, as if he was intentionally avoiding the crowd.

Want to find a quiet place to be alone for a while, or have some other plans.

After strolling for a cup of tea, he paused and stopped.

When I turned my eyes down, I suddenly found myself in front of an attic.

There was a white-robed monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage standing in the shadows, looking around, as if he was waiting for someone.

The white-robed monk looked a little anxious, looking in several directions from time to time.

From time to time, he looked at something in his hand, as if he was worried about missing the person he was waiting for.

Chen Yun's expression remained unchanged, but his spiritual sense quickly swept around.

There were no traces of other cultivators within dozens of feet, nor were there any powerful hidden restrictions. Everything seemed normal.

The nearest cultivator was more than a hundred feet away and would not notice the situation here at all.

This made Chen Yun feel at ease and he felt that this was a more suitable place to act.

Chen Yun changed direction without hesitation and walked towards the monk. His steps were steady and firm, and he soon came in front of the white-robed monk.

"Is there anything wrong, fellow Daoist?"

This was a big man with a face full of flesh. When he saw Chen Yun coming towards him, he was stunned at first.

He seemed to have not expected someone to come towards him, and then asked in a muffled voice.

The voice sounded quite rough, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. He looked Chen Yun up and down, wanting to see what was going on.

"Are you a cultivator from the Kong family?"

Walking up to him, Chen Yun said with a smile on his face.

His tone was very polite and the smile on his face seemed quite friendly, making people feel that he was just asking casually and had no ill intentions.

"Yes, I am the steward of the Kong family's outer hall! Daoist friend, you want to..."

The big man looked at Chen Yun carefully and saw that Chen Yun had all the necessary clothes, storage bags, and spirit beast bags, unlike an ordinary casual cultivator.

He replied politely, thinking that Chen Yun might have something he wanted to ask the Kong family for help or discuss.

Therefore, we dare not be too negligent in our attitude, after all, we are in this world of cultivating immortals.

You never know who has a deep background or strong abilities.

"I have something to ask and would like to see your master. Could you please let me know?"

Chen Yun asked in a friendly manner, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

It was as if there was something really important that needed to be clarified with the head of the Kong family in person.

The tone of his voice was also very sincere, making people feel that he really wanted to ask for help.

"Meet the Patriarch? I'm afraid that's not possible. Our Patriarch has something important to do right now and won't meet outsiders casually."

"If you really have something important to tell me, please tell me first!"

The big man frowned and said with embarrassment, he knew that the master of the house was busy with affairs on weekdays.

Not everyone can see him if they want to, and one cannot disturb the head of the family at will.

So he could only politely reject Chen Yun, but at the same time he also wanted Chen Yun to explain what was going on.

I can also judge whether I really need to inform the head of the family. "It's like this, I just came out of the auction house."

"I found that there seems to be some problem with an item in the auction, and I want to talk to your master about it."

Chen Yun deliberately showed some hesitation and said so.

It looked as if he was hesitant about whether to say it out loud.

It also seems like he's worried that there will be some bad consequences after he says it.

It makes people feel that he has indeed encountered a difficult situation and needs to find the head of the family to solve it.

"Auction house? Is the item wrong? If so, you should go directly to the fellow Taoists in charge of the auction."

Upon hearing Chen Yun's words, the big man suddenly said with a serious expression.

He thought to himself that if there was a problem with the auction item, then according to normal procedures, he should first find the relevant person in charge of the auction to deal with it.

Why would he go directly to the head of the family? So he was a little skeptical about Chen Yun's statement, and there was a bit more vigilance in his eyes.

I feel that Chen Yun's move seems a bit unreasonable.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"This is not something that the auction house can resolve. If you don't believe me, just look at what I bought and you'll understand."

Chen Yun sighed and casually reached out one hand to his waist. The movement looked very natural.

It was as if he really wanted to take something out and show the other person to prove that what he said was true.

Make the other party believe that they have indeed encountered a difficult problem that only the head of the family can solve.

When the big man saw Chen Yun's actions, he realized his years of experience.

Subconsciously, he immediately placed one hand on his waist, showing a vigilant look.

He was thinking what if Chen Yun took out something dangerous or had any ill intentions.

You can also respond in time and protect yourself. After all, in this complicated world of cultivating immortals, it is better to be cautious in everything.

But when Chen Yun flipped his hand, he took out a crystal stone that was glowing red and handed it over.

It looked like he simply wanted to let the big man see the crystal, and he didn't mean any ill intentions.

The big man's suspicion gradually faded, and his muscles relaxed. He took his hand away and said in surprise:
"This is not Fire Melting Crystal. Why does this thing need to be seen by the Patriarch?"

As he spoke, he reached out to take the crystal in confusion, he really couldn't figure it out.

What big problem could there be with an ordinary fire-melting crystal? It was not worth it for Chen Yun to find the head of the family to explain it clearly.

His eyes were full of confusion, and his gaze was fixed on the crystal stone that Chen Yun handed over.

But just as his fingers touched the crystal, a flash of blue light suddenly shot out from the crystal.

At such a short distance, the big man had nowhere to hide.

He was suddenly startled and subconsciously wanted to shout loudly.

But before he could even utter a word, he felt a chill on his forehead.

Then his whole body felt cold, as if it was frozen by a layer of blue frost, and he instantly lost the ability to move.

The horrified expression froze on his face, his eyes filled with despair and disbelief.

I never expected that Chen Yun would do this, and I fell into the trap without any preparation.

Seeing this, Chen Yun shook his sleeves and a blue cloud shot out, engulfing the big man in the glow.

It flew directly into the attic in front of it. The whole process was done in one go without any pause.

Then his figure flashed and Chen Yun followed in silently.

The figure quickly disappeared at the door of the attic, as if it had never appeared.

Only the streets outside were still quiet, with no sign that a sudden accident had just occurred here.

Chen Yun casually walked into an inconspicuous room in the attic.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw that the big man was already lying stiffly on the ground.

His body was covered with blue frost, which was like a layer of icy armor, tightly wrapping the big man's body.

The big man's eyes were wide open, full of fear.

It was as if he had seen some extremely terrifying scene before he died. The look of fear was frozen on his face, which made people feel chilled.

Chen Yun looked calm, without any hesitation, he flipped his hand and a thin silver needle appeared between his two fingers.

The thin needle flickered with a cold luster in the dim room, as if carrying a mysterious power.

Without saying a word, Chen Yun leaned forward and stabbed the two sides of the big man's head with the silver needle in his hand.

The movements were precise and quick, and several injections were given in the blink of an eye.

The silver needle fell so fast that only silver afterimages could be seen.

As the silver needle penetrated, the big man's body trembled violently, as if he was stimulated by something.

Then, the light in his eyes gradually faded, and his eyes, which were originally full of fear, became dull and stupid.

The whole person seemed to have lost his soul, leaving only an empty shell, lying there blankly, allowing Chen Yun to do whatever he wanted.

Chen Yun clasped his hands together and his fingers flexibly changed into various hand gestures.

At the same time, several low spells uttered from his mouth, and the spells echoed in the silent house.

There is a mysterious rhythm.

Immediately afterwards, several spells appeared like balls of dynamic light.

A series of spells hit the big man, and every time a spell was cast, it brought about a weak fluctuation of spiritual power.

Under the effect of the magic spell, the coldness on the big man's body began to disappear immediately.

The blue frost that originally covered his body slowly faded away at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After a while, the big man's body returned to its normal skin color.

Then, he automatically turned over with lifeless eyes, and then acted like a puppet.

He sat cross-legged on the ground mechanically, motionless, like a manipulated puppet, without consciousness or thoughts of his own.

Chen Yun's face was covered with a green light, and the green light enveloped his face, making his expression look even more mysterious.

Then, he shook his sleeves, and several flags of different colors flew out from his sleeves.

Those formation flags drew several gorgeous arcs in the air and were inserted around the two people.

As the formation flag fell to the ground, a magic formation that blocked the aura suddenly took shape.

I saw rays of spiritual energy flowing and interweaving between the flags in the formation, forming a faint light curtain.

Isolate the area where Chen Yun and the big man are from the outside world.

It seems as if an independent space has been created in this small house to prevent the movements inside the house from being noticed by the outside world.

After activating the magic circle, Chen Yun's figure flashed and he stood behind the big man in an instant. The whole movement was smooth and there was no delay at all.

Chen Yun raised one hand slightly, spread out his five fingers, and pressed them firmly on the top of the big man's head.

At the same time, a bright glow shone from his body, which was dazzling. (End of this chapter)
