Chapter 251: Canary in a Cage The colorful lights seemed like fireflies gathered together, rushing towards Jiang Lin. Jiang Lin did not sense any danger. Instead, he felt a sense of insignificance, as if he was facing a tall mountain or standing on the ground looking up at the clouds in the sky. It was as if, in front of this colorful light, everything about himself was not worth mentioning. This thing has an extremely high status, and it can even be said that it is almost the only one Jiang Lin has ever seen in his life! The reason why I say "almost" is because the position that gave Jiang Lin the last feeling of being so high and insignificant was the throne of ten thousand stars on the ninety-nine steps of the starry sky, high up in the Purple Palace. In other words, the energy within this colorful stream of light is essentially the same as the status of Emperor Ziwei! This is simply appalling! That’s Emperor Ziwei! The head of the Four Emperors, the deputy emperor of Heaven, above him is one person, below him are all living beings! And now, right in front of Jiang Lin, a girl with a mysterious origin casually threw out a so-called greeting gift, but its essential status was actually on par with the Ten Thousand Stars Throne of Emperor Ziwei! Seeing that the colorful light was getting closer and closer to him, Jiang Lin had no intention of getting closer or catching it. Instead, he moved himself at an extremely fast speed, circling around the Qianong Babu Bed, trying to stay as far away from it as possible. Yes, Jiang Lin did not sense any sense of crisis, but there was also a possibility that the danger of the colorful light had exceeded the limit of Jiang Lin's spiritual perception. Ants cannot sense human malice. The only time they can clearly recognize it is when they are dying and there is no doubt that death is coming! Moreover, this colorful stream of light gave Jiang Lin a very familiar feeling, as if... The magical power used by the fox-faced scholar! However, there are many differences, but the foundation is the same, or in other words, the colorful light in front of Jiang Lin is a foundation, a basis, a... foundation of the Tao!
Jiang Lin's pupils constricted, and he thought of many things at once. He touched the object in his sleeve, and then looked at the colorful light that was not chasing him but was just floating at Jiang Lin's original location. The speculations that I had previously derived from this object were likely wrong. "You... don't like it?" When the girl saw Jiang Lin dodged, she was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips, lowered her head somewhat aggrieved, with a hint of apology and panic in her voice. "This is all I have...I'm sorry..." She bowed to Jiang Lin to apologize, then silently picked up the Zhansha on the screen, held it in both hands, and handed it over reluctantly. "Back to you……" Looking at the girl, Jiang Lin's vigilance did not disappear, but he did not move again because he knew that he was not worthy. If the girl in front of him really had ill intentions towards him and wanted to kill him, there would be no pressure at all. She could even just wave her hand, and the status comparable to that of Emperor Ziwei would put pressure on him. Jiang Lin would have no chance of survival. Jiang Lin took a deep breath and slowly took out an object from his arms. The object was a jade seal no bigger than a baby's fist. Made of white jade, it was flickering with colorful light. It was very similar to the colorful light that the girl was going to give to Jiang Lin, or in other words, they were essentially the same thing. However, the jade seal in Jiang Lin's hand, with its colorful flowing light, did not have the aura of an extremely high status, but was more of a unique magical power. This is a transformed colorful streamer, essentially the colorful streamer that the girl had triggered, but... How could an ordinary cultivator or even an immortal control something of that status? You can only choose to mix other things that belong to you into this colorful light to turn it into a magical power, a treasure, or other extremely amazing existence. But no matter how amazing the transformation is, it has to sacrifice that extremely high status. It is more of a degeneration than a transformation. If the magical power of this seal is activated, it will become an extremely powerful spirit gathering technique. Its coverage area is even tens of thousands of miles, and it can absorb spiritual energy within a radius of 200,000 miles. Under normal circumstances, even if it was a major sect, if it wanted to achieve this, it would have to set up a large formation and consume countless resources.
But if you put it on this jade seal, you only need to gently stimulate it. The reason why the gap is so huge is that the decisive factor is the extremely high nature of the colorful light. There was also the fox-faced scholar that Jiang Lin was facing, a glutton. Even if he had the innate magical power to swallow as many things as Jiang Lin could, there was no way he could swallow them without getting hurt. Jiang Lin even had to treat him with extreme caution. But with the blessing of this colorful light, the fox-faced Confucian scholar did it, and even forced Jiang Lin to use his great transformation spell to break it. However, his own strength was completely inferior to Jiang Lin's. "Huh? Isn't this the gift I gave away?" The girl was puzzled when she saw the jade seal in Jiang Lin's hand, and then asked: "I remember that this was given to a friend in a black robe. Why is it here with you?" As she spoke, she blinked in disappointment and muttered, "My friend in black robe gave my gift away..." Jiang Lin did not answer, but his heart was in turmoil. Because the colorful light on the jade seal had lost its extremely high status, Jiang Lin could see some things. The colorful light on this jade seal has a very obvious Western Kunlun characteristic. Originally, Jiang Lin only thought that this was something created by the four major beast tribes in West Kunlun, in cooperation with the Celestial Beings, in order to win people's hearts and build a community of interests. As for the origin of this colorful light, Jiang Lin originally guessed that it was most likely a kind of original power unique to West Kunlun. Although he couldn't see the details clearly, its characteristics were so distinct. This can also explain why the entrance to this gray world was set up at the foot of Tiesha Mountain, but Grandma Hei turned a blind eye to it. Also, the entrance to the Gray Realm is specifically placed inside the ancestral hall of Emperor Baosheng, which was considered as forcibly dragging Emperor Baosheng into the water. The emperor had no other choice and was even forced to take action himself. There is no other reason, West Kunlun is simply too transcendent. Today, one of the only two ancient gods known to the public is in West Kunlun. Whether it is Hei Nainai or Taibai Jinxing behind her, or Baosheng Dadi, they will not choose to conflict with Xi Kunlun unless it is absolutely necessary. In particular, those who have been active in this gray world for many years will have a seven-colored divine light from West Kunlun... It’s hard not to overthink this. Is the one from West Kunlun preparing to intervene in the dispute among the three realms? Whether it is the four major beast tribes or the celestial beings, they all come from the instruction of this great ancient god. Even if Jiang Lin had not known the secret about the Queen Mother of the West's innate ancient divine talisman, he would have thought it was the case, because the possibility was too great. Jiang Lin originally thought that the four beast tribes and the celestial beings were taking advantage of the Queen Mother of the West's unhealthy condition and acting under false pretenses. But now it seems... Jiang Lin glanced at the girl who still looked a little lost. The existence of this girl overturned Jiang Lin's speculation and also pushed the origin of the colorful light to a point that Jiang Lin could never imagine, but it really appeared before his eyes. It is not some kind of original power unique to West Kunlun, but it is simply the power from the Queen Mother of the West herself! Even if it is just a tiny bit, and even if the person who gets the colorful light can only use it after the degraded transformation, it is still an amazing and exaggerated method! But how did the girl in front of me do it? That was a power directly from the Queen Mother of the West, a blessing from an ancient god, why did she appear here, why was it spread, why... After one doubt is solved, more doubts will arise.
But just these questions were enough to send chills down Jiang Lin's spine. The condition of the Queen Mother of the West seemed not just a little bit wrong, but very wrong. This ancient god is definitely planning something! The girl in front of me may be a crucial step in this process. But the question remains, no matter how this girl did it, why would she help the Celestial Beings Sect? And even the Moon Worship Society, which is definitely an evil sect? "Why do not you speak?" Seeing the handsome boy's expression changing from time to time, the girl asked cautiously. Jiang Lin came back to his senses, took a deep breath, slowly raised his head, and looked at the girl. Facing the pair of clear and bright eyes like a baby, Jiang Lin asked softly: "Can I chat with you?" Hearing this, the girl was stunned for a moment, then she unconsciously smiled widely and nodded repeatedly. "Yeah! Okay!" It can be seen that she was very happy because of Jiang Lin's words. She looked at Jiang Lin, ran over quickly, and quickly placed two cups of tea on the table, then put the stool in place. The girl's skill was mixed with a bit of nervousness and unfamiliarity; she seemed to have practiced entertaining friends many times, but this was the first time a friend actually came. "Come and sit." The girl sat down and waved happily at Jiang Lin. The stool was a bit high, and her feet did not touch the ground when she sat on it. From Jiang Lin's perspective, he could see that the hem of her skirt was swaying like she was dancing. He knew without thinking that the girl must be shaking her calves happily. Jiang Lin took a deep breath, took a tentative step, and walked onto the Qiangongbabu bed. The original terrifying aura of absolute inviolability had completely disappeared the moment the girl issued the invitation. Jiang Lin walked up smoothly and slowly sat down opposite the girl. "Hey hey hey..." The girl tilted her head, her big eyes curved into crescents, and looked at Jiang Lin, saying, "This is my first time entertaining friends." As she spoke, she muttered a little disappointedly: "Those friends before didn't dare to talk to me much. They just exchanged gifts and left. Sister Meng would never sit down and talk to me like she does now." "If it weren't for you, I would have thought I was the scary one." Jiang Lin discovered that when the girl was emotionally unstable, she would unconsciously speak with an upturned ending. "Do you have a lot of friends?" Jiang Lin asked softly. "OK!" When this was mentioned, the girl nodded proudly and said, "There are so many of them. They were all brought here by Sister Meng for me to know. I like making friends, and these things are all gifts they gave me!" The girl said this while pointing at the luxurious furnishings around her. Jiang Lin looked around and found it was indeed a luxurious place. There were even many items that were treasures to immortals. However, compared with the colorful light that the girl gave back, these things were completely worthless. Looking at the spirited girl, Jiang Lin suddenly felt an indescribable emotion.
It's probably the sadness and pity of seeing an innocent child being cheated and helping to count money. A young child carrying a treasure walks in a busy city... "Who is Sister Meng?" Jiang Lin asked again: "Did she bring you here?" "Sister Meng is Sister Meng." Jiang Lin was stunned by the girl's answer, and then he continued, "She is my first friend and she brought me here. She said that there are many people here who want to make friends with me." "The etiquette of giving a meeting gift was also taught to me by Sister Meng!" "Sister Meng is a good friend!" Jiang Lin couldn't help but frowned secretly. A figure suddenly flashed through his mind and asked, "Tan Mengze?" The girl was stunned for a moment, then nodded, as if to be expected, and said with a smile: "You do know Sister Meng, but..." She immediately muttered in confusion, "Why didn't Sister Meng come with us this time?" “It wasn’t like this before…” Because your sister Meng has been killed by me... Jiang Lin thought silently in his heart. Besides, this Sister Meng doesn't seem to be a good person... "Where... were you brought here by Sister Meng?" Jiang Lin thought in his mind and asked the most crucial question. "from where?" The girl was stunned for a long time after hearing this, with a hint of confusion and sudden realization in her big eyes. Yes, where did Sister Meng bring me from? I seem to have been in this room all along? Where did I come from? What place did Sister Meng bring me to? What is this for me? Many questions flashed through the girl's mind, and she gradually began to tremble. As her emotions fluctuated, Jiang Lin's face suddenly turned red. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not because I saw something, but because I sensed an indescribable and terrifying pressure! The pressure was everywhere, and just the passive perception of it made Jiang Lin freeze completely, leaving him no room for resistance! In fact, if this continues, Jiang Lin will die, there is no doubt about it! The girl was unaware of anything. She was completely confused by Jiang Lin's questions. Or to put it more simply. The girl is now struggling with three philosophical questions. who I am? Where do I come from? Where to go? Jiang Lin wanted to open his mouth, but even such a simple action took him a lot of willpower and magic power. 'laugh……'
Jiang Lin bit the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of blood from the tip of his tongue, carrying the innate pure yang energy, spurted out, broke through the pressure limit, and fell on the table in front of him. This bloody scene fell into the girl's eyes. She woke up suddenly, and the indescribable pressure also dissipated. "ah!" The girl stood up bewilderedly, wanting to do something, but had no idea what to do. Just as she was running around in a panic, the voice of the Taoist in green clothes rang in her ears. "Slow down." The girl looked over subconsciously and saw that the Taoist in green had blood on the corner of his mouth, but he had a hint of a smile on his face. "If you consider me a friend, then... do you believe what I say?" The girl's eyes, as clear as a baby's, met those eyes filled with sincerity and frankness. She couldn't help but nodded. "Ah." Jiang Lin stood up slowly. "You have been deceived. You have been deceived all along." (End of this chapter)
