Volume 16: The Wheel of Reincarnation Chapter 56: Vientiane (Part 1)
After all, Li Lin is not a fool. If he can survive simply by being cute, why would he want to be the best in the world? His analytical ability and on-the-spot adaptability are both strong without any weaknesses. While those creatures that look like aliens from outer space are still confused, Li Lin has already reacted and set up layers of killing arrays around him to prepare for the attack. Of course, because of subconscious reasons, the magic arrays released around him seem to have excellent sound and light effects, but they have no lethality.
In the magic world, the magic array that can command the wind and rain is no different from some fireworks in this oriental world. To be more precise, if Li Lin's power had not been transformed into the characteristics of a scattered immortal related to immortal energy, he probably wouldn't even be able to set off a firecracker.
“…”
The aliens looked at Li Lin, who was surrounded by colorful fireworks and looked like a big ball of light. They stared at each other for a long time.
In an awkward silence, one alien seemed to wake up from his contemplation and clapped tentatively. The other aliens suddenly realized what was going on and clapped in a similar manner towards Li Lin floating in the air. The sparse applause was like the most basic courtesy given to a bad actor.
Seeing those aliens that could barely be called humanoid but not human at all applauding him, no matter how stupid Li Lin was, he probably knew where he was just by analyzing their appearance. Obviously, his luck was not very good, as he was teleported to a land that was completely opposite to the heaven. Especially the marked appearance, Li Lin took a look at the somewhat dull alien in front of him and felt that shock was really not enough.
These monks, or creatures called monks, had almost nothing to do with them except that the breath flowing through their bodies still belonged to the cultivators. They had more or less lost their human form. Li Lin even saw a human figure made entirely of water, with all kinds of mud and fish rolling inside, and even air gurgling out of the body and splashing on the surface. And this was just a relatively ordinary individual among those aliens. If it weren't for the breath's instinctive transmission of some cognition and system notifications, Li Lin felt that he would probably have treated these people as monsters.
The people of the Underworld are completely different from those in the outside world, and their reputation is well-deserved.
After a while, it seemed to realize that clapping alone was not enough. A giant tree that barely had a human shape came out from the aliens, with something like flames flowing around its wrinkled bark. It coughed twice, sprayed out some liquid, and a slightly hoarse voice reached Li Lin's mind.
"Your performance was great. Are you one of those wandering jugglers in the legend? You travel around the worlds with your destiny to bring happiness and peace. You in the demon world must have suffered discrimination, but even so, you are willing to come to a forgotten place like our world... Moreover, I didn't expect that juggling also requires such strong skills... Even if you become an immortal, are you going to persist in your meaningless activities?"
“…”
No, I'm not, I didn't, you got the wrong person.
Seeing those aliens still clapping belatedly, Li Lin felt his face flushed red. If it weren't for the divine light covering him, he would have run away long ago.
But now there is an external shielding mechanism, even if he feels abnormally ashamed, others can't see it. After adjusting his mentality, Li Lin felt that it would be better not to play tricks. Playing tricks in front of a group of people who are hundreds of years old is obviously a very stupid behavior.
Most importantly, these practitioners are not the kind of practitioners who study hard. These hundreds of years old people emphasize the unity of knowledge and action, and must verify their knowledge and related ideas. In other words, each of them is a real old sly with hundreds of years of experience. If there is any inconsistency just like the person who gave him the jade talisman, it is easy to see that he knows nothing about the world of immortal cultivation.
"I'm not some juggler."
Li Lin carefully considered his words and whispered:
"I just wanted to reach the place I wanted to go through fate, but I failed. And I didn't expect to meet people from the underworld. Those things just now were a kind of defense measure of my original world, but I don't know why something seems to have gone wrong here."
“Oh…I see.”
The giant tree chewed on the information contained in these brief words, and its huge bark face showed a thoughtful expression.
"I was wondering how a wandering immortal could possibly become a juggler... But you don't look like the people in other worlds who think this is against the will of heaven. You just seem surprised. Generally speaking, only people in the demon world are so open-minded. Are you from the demon world?"
"No...to be precise, I don't know."
"Ah, it looks like you've been on the move for a long time. No place to belong?"
There was a hint of sympathy in that wrinkled face.
"Then you can come to our place and learn about our world. Heaven nurtures all things, and man cannot change nature, so we believe that only by turning ourselves into nature can we truly experience great transcendence."
The old tree man looked like a fantasy tree man, but was surrounded by a heavy aura as if the entire biosphere. He said with a smile, and the aura around him was as if an entire planet was stuffed into his body, making people feel like facing an entire celestial body.
"But since you are not a professional juggler, and you did not come here on purpose, but simply arrived here by chance, we have no reason to expel you. Our world is different from other worlds. If any friends are willing to come and communicate with us with goodwill, we are very happy to exchange with them. Especially travelers like you, who are rare figures for us once in a century."
"Although there is a lot I want to talk about, this isn't really a place to talk. Let's go inside and talk."
The old tree man said with a smile and directly handed a signpost to Li Lin.
At the same time when Li Lin received the prompt of the coordinates of 'Xuyoutian', the huge tree man slowly moved his huge body, like a real giant tree, and walked towards the outside of the light path of the immortal road with the strange-shaped aliens around him.
After walking out of the light curtain, looking at the strange world outside that was filled with a certain order, Li Lin was deeply shocked by some high-end achievements from another civilized world.
