Chapter 1379: Chapter 1399: Every Life-Saving Magical Treasure Counts_1

Lin Chen understood.

Meng Gongxin put it rather tactfully, but in essence, he was saying, "Your current strength is too poor, and that place is very dangerous. If you go alone, you’re likely to face a one-way trip!"

Lin Chen asked earnestly, "According to Sect Master’s opinion, at what level of strength will I be qualified to travel across the continents alone?"

Meng Gongxin laughed, "There’s really no such thing as qualifications. It’s just that the greater your strength, the higher your safety. The climate of our Yunxiao Continent is much better than that of the Dragon Spirit Continent. It’s not that chaotic, and the White Crane Immortal Sect still has some reputation here, so others may have some scruples about dealing with you. However, in the Dragon Spirit Continent, no one cares about the reputation of the White Crane Immortal Sect."

A war-ravaged land?

Lin Chen immediately thought of the Central Divine State in the Barren Wilderness. Perhaps the meaning was similar.

Places like Xixi State and Nan Yuzhou are relatively stable, but the Central Divine State is a constant war zone. Bandits are rampant, and if you rashly set out for the Central Divine State, you could easily disappear while on your way.

Lin Chen was very self-aware. He didn’t consider himself to be particularly powerful. His current self, in the context of the entire Immortal Realm, was like a carp at best, capable of eating small fish and shrimp. But compared to the big fish in the sea, he was worth nothing. Even his bones wouldn’t suffice them as a toothpick.

"I’ll wait then, it’s enough to know that there’s such an opportunity. This isn’t that urgent of a matter."

Lin Chen was telling the truth. The Immortal Path is boundless, and even if hundreds or even a thousand years pass, it wouldn’t matter as long as he could accomplish this.

Seeing that Lin Chen was so understanding, Meng Gongxin’s expression clearly relaxed a bit. He had been worrying earlier, afraid that Lin Chen would insist on going to the Dragon Spirit Continent no matter what after hearing this news. That would be bad.

The Dragon Spirit Continent is really chaotic. Rumor has it that the Human Clan and the Dragon Clan are currently at each other’s throats, practically about to destroy the entire continent. If Lin Chen were to go now, it would be like a meat bun hitting a dog – there’s no return.

The White Crane Immortal Sect had just begun to see hope for its rise. If one was to lose his life from running around due to private matters, it would be a heavy loss.

Lin Chen holds the Heavenly Sword Inheritance, which he has not fully comprehended himself.

If he were to disappear, the Heavenly Sword inheritance would truly be lost.

Su Shaoling?

Who knows which Immortal Realm he’s currently roaming.

Meng Gongxin laughed, "You’ve been in closed-door cultivation for a year, and you’ve just come out. Why not go out and take a walk nearby to relax? After all, you’ve come to the Immortal Realm from the Barren Wilderness and have yet to go out."

Lin Chen laughed, "Wandering around sounds pretty boring. Are there any tasks within the sect that I could participate in?"

Meng Gongxin thought for a moment, "The Cave Master of the East China Heavenly Hole is holding a birthday celebration, and has also sent us invitations. I have something to do and can’t attend, and I’m wondering who to send as my substitute. Since you’re intending to go out and relax anyway, why not make this trip for me while you’re at it?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Attending a banquet is quite relaxing. But is it appropriate for me to go as your substitute?"

Meng Gongxin chuckled, "Why wouldn’t it be appropriate? You’re my junior martial uncle, the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Peak, your status and generation are sufficient. As for strength, even though you’re only a Human Immortal, your record of killing a Peak True Immortal with a single sword strike is there. Who would dare to look down on you?"

"Moreover, these banquets are just like that, they invite friends widely. The White Crane Immortal Sect has quite a connection with the East China Heavenly Hole. As long as someone goes and delivers the gift, that’s good enough. Not many others would care about the rest. You can just deliver the gift and leave if you wish, it’s all fine."

Seeing him press it in such a way, Lin Chen no longer declined, "Alright, I’ll make this trip."

Meng Gongxin handed over the gift he had prepared to Lin Chen. It was a beautiful piece of Deep Sea Jade Coral, which stood brilliantly red in its entirety. This type of coral grows extremely slowly, a piece of this size would take at least ten thousand years to form.

Besides the Jade Coral, there was also a Ten Thousand Years Blood Lingzhi mushroom, which is equally valuable and carries the implication of longevity, making it a perfect birthday gift.

"His birthday celebration is in half a year and it takes about three months to get to the East China Heavenly Hole from the White Crane Immortal Sect. So, you don’t need to rush on the road."

"Okay!"

Lin Chen had a strange thought in his heart. It felt just like being in the human world of the olden days, where visiting friends and traveling would last several months on the road. It was only because cultivators had long lifespans that they could afford such travel. Otherwise, if one spent their entire life making a few of these trips, the entirety of their life would be wasted on the road.

Meng Gongxin laughed, "Although our Cloud Sky Continent is relatively safe, you should still be prepared. The Sect is giving you three magic treasures, please accept."

Meng Gongxin displayed the three magic treasures he had prepared in advance, and then introduced each one in turn.

After Lin Chen heard this, he thought to himself, ’Good heavens!’

The three treasures were the Chasing Light Boots, Qilin Cloak, and the Great Displacement Order. Not a single one was an attack-type treasure, they were all defensive and escape-type treasures.

Meng Gongxin knew that he already had the Eight-Armed Arhat Phantom and attack tools like the Emperor’s Seal and Heavenly Sword, plus his own strength was limited, so he didn’t even consider giving Lin Chen an attack-type magic treasure.

Could they win by adding an attack-type treasure if the Eight-Armed Arhat Phantom can’t win?

Impossible!

If they can’t fight, then run!

It’s alright even if they cannot fight against them, but they must be able to escape!
