Chapter 2801: Chapter 2821: Seeking Help, Everything Has a Solution
"Yes, if you shatter it, the other party will no longer be able to sense or locate it."
Lin Chen asked curiously, "This person is a Sect Master from the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain with a strength that is roughly that of a Peak Great Luo Xian, not having stepped into the Quasi-Saint Realm. Can he still sense this drop of blood even after being so far from all these Immortal Domains?"
"He can!"
Wen Mengsheng explained, "This drop of Heart Blood has been refined and is not ordinary blood. You can think of it as a small liquid Magical Treasure. As long as it’s not completely blocked, its owner will be able to sense it."
"If the other party has the same ability as our master, then they could arrive in an instant. If not, then they could only sense the general direction and not the exact location. However, if they are determined, they can always follow the direction to find it."
Lin Chen blinked, "Then let’s not shatter this drop of blood just yet. I’ll keep it for now; perhaps I can give that person a little surprise later on."
Wen Mengsheng smiled gently, and the drop of blood flew towards Lin Chen.
"Then, Junior Brother Lin, you should keep it safe yourself. It’s best to store it within this Magical Treasure. Otherwise, once you leave Mount Taixu, it can be sensed."
Lin Chen took out a porcelain bottle, carefully stored the drop of blood, and initially placed it in the Qiqiao Hall.
After handling the Heart Blood, Lin Chen turned to Ning Xiayi with a hearty smile, "Congratulations, you’re finally free. No more fears of being caught by Cui Wenxuan."
Ning Xiayi nodded excitedly and bowed solemnly to Wen Mengsheng, "Thank you, Mr. Wen, for relieving my worries!"
Wen Mengsheng waved his hand, saying with a laugh, "It was a small effort. Junior Brother Lin, what is this third matter?"
Lin Chen asked, "Senior Brother Wen, do you know of Taoist Duan Tian?"
Wen Mengsheng’s expression showed a bit of surprise, "Taoist Duan Tian was a Quasi-Saint from the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain over ten thousand years ago. He was a loner who later made an enemy of the Quasi-Saint Thousand Demon Monarch. After a losing battle, he disappeared. The Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain and the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain are far apart. You shouldn’t know him, should you?"
Lin Chen replied, "Taoist Duan Tian was hunted by the Thousand Demon Monarch and fled all the way to the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain..."
Without any concealment, Lin Chen disclosed everything about Taoist Duan Tian and concluded, "I want to clarify whether what he said is true, how the Thousand Demon Monarch is nowadays, and then decide whether to accept his commission. Of course, if Senior Brother Wen is interested in Taoist Duan Tian’s story, then I can hand over the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup to you, Senior Brother, and walk away from it all..."
Wen Mengsheng said with a laugh, "I know you’re generous, but the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup is Taoist Duan Tian’s Life-bound Magical Treasure and is a fire-type Magical Treasure. Your Innate Divine Power is the Five Elements Great Escape, and paired with your fire-type Cultivation Technique, this Magical Treasure can greatly enhance its power."
"You and the Saint of Thieves entered together, and because you kindly buried Taoist Duan Tian’s body, he took note of you and chose you. This was your opportunity; there’s no justification for me to take it."
"A gentleman does not take what others esteem. We people of Mount Taixu lack neither Cultivation Techniques nor Magical Treasures, and we don’t engage in such things. Since he entrusted you to find someone, then go ahead confidently. If you truly provoke the Thousand Demon Monarch, just mention the name of Mount Taixu. The Thousand Demon Monarch may be powerful, but he also wouldn’t dare provoke us."
"Later, I will give you a token. If you encounter danger in the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain, activate the token, and I will come to help you. What happens next may be uncertain, but at the very least, I can assure you’ll be safe."
Wen Mengsheng’s words were like a reassuring pill that immediately eased Lin Chen’s mind.
He trusted True Person Tai Xu and believed in Wen Mengsheng’s character, but as it was their first meeting and considering that Innate Spiritual Treasures were rare even in the entire Immortal Realm, what if the other party was tempted?
Being proactive about it means that even if someone really had intentions, there would be a more appropriate solution. But if I don’t mention it, and they get the idea, it could end up being more than just losing the Sun Moon Divine Dragon Cup.
One can’t blame Lin Chen for his caution, who is to measure a gentleman’s belly with my own narrow mind? It’s simply that, in comparison to Mount Taixu, Lin Chen’s strength is too weak.
Lin Chen chose to be honest and lay everything out in the open, and that has proven to be the best decision.
Since Wen Mengsheng has made his stance clear, Lin Chen felt reassured and once again expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wen. I’m always asking for your help and I don’t know how to repay you." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Wen Mengsheng said with a laugh, "Your Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror was a great help to our master this time. Otherwise, things could have been troublesome. This is mutual assistance, so don’t be shy about it."
Out of curiosity, Lin Chen asked, "Isn’t the method to manipulate the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror lost? Haven’t you found it yet?"
Wen Mengsheng replied, "The place where our master went required the powers of water and fire from the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror. Without it, it would have been very troublesome, but with it, things became much easier. I believe that our master must have had some good gains this time. In any case, your Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror was a huge help."
"I’m not just being polite, and you shouldn’t be either. Besides, you were originally a guest, and as the host, I should definitely take good care of my guests, right?"
Lin Chen was very happy; three matters had been settled, each falling into place.
The issue with Ning Xiayi was resolved, and now all that remained was finding the Leap Void Beast and inquiring about the descendants of Taoist Duan Tian.
After the diagnosis was over, Wen Mengsheng gave Lin Chen an ancient book and a handwritten piece of paper.
A part of the ancient book was about the Leap Void Beast, even including drawings depicting its appearance, along with other details such as its habits, abilities, fighting methods, and some legends.
The handwritten paper listed three locations where the Leap Void Beast might be found, as gathered by Wen Mengsheng from various books. As to whether it is indeed there or not, that would be up to Lin Chen to find out and try his luck.
Lin Chen stayed in Mount Taixu for a little over ten days, and during this time, he spent most of it in Mount Taixu’s Book Collection Pavilion reading books.
He wasn’t reading about Cultivation Techniques or Divine Powers, but various materials about the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain.
Since he had to travel through the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain, he had to understand it well. After all, once out there, one might have to deal with cultivators or even the various Xianmen of this realm, and one can’t be ignorant.
After coming out of the Book Collection Pavilion, Lin Chen set up cooking utensils in front of his small attic where he was staying and took to the kitchen himself, preparing a meal to invite Wen Mengsheng and four others to a gathering.
"Tomorrow I plan to go searching for the Leap Void Beast. My Senior Brothers and Sisters have helped me a lot, and I have no way to repay you all. I’ve prepared a simple meal to express my gratitude," Lin Chen announced.
Gong Jianying’s gaze swept over the food Lin Chen had made, and her eyes immediately brightened: "It smells delicious! It looks so good!"
Showing great interest, Wen Mengsheng walked over to Lin Chen’s specially made cooking utensils and said with a smile, "Not bad at all, the quality of this pot could almost be called a Spiritual Treasure."
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "If it were common iron, some ingredients would probably need to stew until the pot melted away, and they still wouldn’t be cooked. To enjoy delicious food, one must have the right kitchen tools. Although I haven’t seen your kitchen, Senior Brother Wen, I imagine it’s only better than mine, certainly not worse..."
