No hope for eternal life

Chapter 304 Lin Yu's Counter-Question

This time, Mu Changsheng met Du Ruchang, the head of the Du family, as he wished, but the answer he got in the end was exactly the same as that of the great elder of the Xianxia Sect: "It is really unfortunate that the plant spirit has been used by a disciple of the family."

"In that case, it is just that the junior has bad luck." Mu Changsheng said goodbye. It didn't matter whether it was true or not. He could understand the other party's thoughts. Good things should be kept for their own people. Although he, Mu Changsheng, had some fame now, he was only in the Nascent Soul stage after all, and did not have that much value to be won over.

But Mu Changsheng did not leave the Tianling Realm, but went to the First Lingshan Area where the Tianling Sect was located.

Mu Changsheng's trip to the Tianling Realm, in addition to purchasing the five elements magical objects, also had another purpose, which was to meet Lin Yu.

The next day, Mu Changsheng stepped into the First Spiritual Mountain Region and felt the difference again: "The spiritual power of heaven and earth here is even richer."

The nine spiritual mountains in the Tianling Realm are ranked according to the concentration of their spiritual energy. The third and fourth spiritual mountains are under the jurisdiction of the demon clan, and the remaining seven are all under the jurisdiction of the Tianling Sect.

The headquarters of the Tianling Sect is located in the core area of ​​the First Lingshan Region - the First Lingshan.

Of course, the so-called first sacred mountain is not just a mountain, but an extremely huge mountain range, whose length and width are unknown, and it is thousands of miles long and wide.

The Tianling Sect was transformed on the basis of the First Lingshan Mountain. There are countless peaks standing on the mountain range, and hundreds of disciples are distributed on the peaks. In this respect, it is very similar to the Lingshan Sect.

But when Mu Changsheng really approached the First Spiritual Mountain, he was still shocked by the scene. The spiritual power here was almost condensed, and it looked like a drizzle that would never stop.

"Is this the number one spiritual mountain?" Mu Changsheng murmured to himself. This is not only the number one spiritual mountain in the Heavenly Spiritual Realm, but there is no other such a good place in the Nine Realms.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng looked at the winding mountains of the First Spiritual Mountain. It was said that under the First Spiritual Mountain, there was an extremely large spirit stone mine.

The spiritual stone mines in the world are divided into three categories: large, medium and small. However, the spiritual stone mine under the First Spiritual Mountain is an unparalleled and unique existence, and is called a giant spiritual stone mine!

It is said that the spiritual power of the entire Tianling Realm is so rich because of the giant spiritual stone mine. Therefore, the Tianling Sect seldom mines spiritual stones from the giant spiritual stone mine. This is to keep the spiritual power of the Tianling Realm rich and benefit all living beings in the world.

After feasting his eyes, Mu Changsheng entered the Tianling Sect Mountains with the identity token of a Lingshan Sect disciple, and quickly found Qinglian Peak where Lin Yu lived.

Seeing that the mountain protection formation on Qinglian Peak was not activated, Mu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that Lin Yu was currently in Qinglian Peak and was not in seclusion.

So, Mu Changsheng used the sound transmission method to send a message to Qinglian Peak: "Please ask Senior Sister Lin to come out and talk."

Lin Yu heard the voice transmission and flew out of Qinglian Peak. Seeing Mu Changsheng, she was slightly surprised, but still asked politely: "Junior Brother Mu, is there anything I can do for you?"

Mu Changsheng took out his three extra black beads, which were the purpose of his trip. He immediately explained: "Senior Sister Lin should have heard about the attack by the demon tribe. I was able to escape the attack thanks to this treasure. I happen to have two sets of this treasure, so I want to give one set to you for self-defense."

Lin Yu listened to Mu Changsheng's words quietly, with an indifferent expression on his face. He did not take the black bead, but asked casually: "How do I use this treasure? What are the restrictions?"

"This item requires a drop of blood to recognize its owner. Before using it, you must first infuse it with the spiritual power of about 30,000 high-grade spirit stones to charge it. Then you can use your own magic power to activate the formation within it. These three black beads are connected together to form a teleportation array that can instantly teleport people to random places thousands of miles away. The only limitation is that this teleportation array can only teleport cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Realm. Those with higher cultivation cannot be teleported." Mu Changsheng explained.

Over the years, many cultivators have taken the initiative to show their courtesy to Lin Yu, so she didn't care much about Mu Changsheng's gift at first. But after hearing the explanation, she couldn't help but be shocked. It was the first time she heard of such a magical treasure, and she quickly realized how precious this treasure was.

But Lin Yu still didn't take the black bead. After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked: "Mu Changsheng, do you like me?"

Lin Yu's words shocked Mu Changsheng so much that his heart began to beat wildly and his head was buzzing. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. If he said he didn't like her at this time, would that be a dead end?

Therefore, Mu Changsheng could only bite the bullet and say: "Yes, I like you. I have been fond of you since I first saw you in Shenhu City. Later, I joined Lingshan Sect and learned about your identity. At that time, I thought that there was no way we could have a relationship because of our different statuses. Later, I met you several times and saw that you were polite and just, without the arrogance of a child from an aristocratic family. I liked you even more."

Lin Yu listened to Mu Changsheng's answer quietly. Her expression was very calm, always so calm, so calm that it made Mu Changsheng a little uneasy.

Only after Mu Changsheng finished speaking did Lin Yu continue: "In this case, I would like to ask you three questions?"

"Excuse me." Mu Changsheng said a little nervously. When he saw Lin Yu's calm expression, he always had a bad feeling.

"If I accept this treasure from you today, do I have to agree to your wishes?" Lin Yu asked slowly.

Mu Changsheng shook his head and said: "That doesn't make sense. Whether you agree to it or not, I will still give it to you. This black bead is for protection and life-saving."

Lin Yu did not comment on Mu Changsheng's answer and asked again: "That day in the sect competition, you defeated me. You are stronger than me. Do I have to like you?"

"No, strength and weakness are only temporary. There is no reason in this world that one has to like anyone else." Mu Changsheng explained softly. He already vaguely understood Lin Yu's attitude.

Then, Lin Yu asked the last question: "If you like me, do I have to like you?"

"There is no such truth in the world." Mu Changsheng said softly. The three questions made his voice get smaller and smaller because he already knew the answer.

Seeing that Mu Changsheng had understood what he meant, Lin Yu nodded slightly and continued, "Now, I will make it clear to you that I, Lin Yu, have no plans to find a Taoist partner, and I probably won't have one in the future. Even if I do, I can be sure that person will not be you. Am I clear enough?"

"That's clear enough." Mu Changsheng answered with his head down, somewhat afraid to look directly at Lin Yu. He understood very well what Lin Yu meant, which was to cut the Gordian knot, completely reject him, and sever all his hopes and fantasies.

Seeing that the words had been made clear, Lin Yu pulled back the black bead and said, "This treasure is very good, but I already have other treasures to protect myself. You can take it back."

Mu Changsheng looked up upon hearing this and insisted, "I have already said that whether Senior Sister agrees or not, this treasure must be given away. Senior Sister, please do not teach me to break my promise. In addition, one more treasure is an extra layer of insurance, and there is no conflict."

Lin Yu frowned slightly and insisted, "If I say I don't need it, then I don't need it. If you really want to give it to me, then sell it to the sect, and the sect will send it to someone who needs it."

Seeing Lin Yu's firm attitude, Mu Changsheng knew he couldn't force him, so he had to take back the black bead.

Lin Yu was satisfied, and then took the initiative to say goodbye: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Lin Yu went straight back to the cave abode on Qinglian Peak and closed the door of the cave abode.

Mu Changsheng stared at the tightly closed door of the cave, motionless. After a long time, he turned around and left in despair.

At the same time, in Lin Yu's cave, Lin Yu was meditating quietly. A sigh sounded in her ear: "Girl, you are too harsh in what you say. I'm afraid you will regret it in the future."
