"Fellow Daoist Chen, you took so long to come out. People are bound to get the wrong idea!"
As soon as Chen Lin reached the foot of the mountain, he saw True Lord Wanmeng standing there, teasing him.
Chen Lin smiled. "I hope you dare say that in front of Hundred Flowers Fairy."
"I wouldn't dare."
True Lord Wanmeng shook his head repeatedly. "I'm no match for Hundred Flowers Fairy now. Her realm is higher, and her methods are unfathomable to gods and ghosts alike. She once killed three late Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators together and even escaped unscathed from an early Void Refinement powerhouse. She's quite famous in the Little Xuanshan Range."
Chen Lin was startled too, though it made sense once he thought about it.
Hundred Flowers Fairy was almost certainly a mighty cultivator reincarnated. How could middle-tier cultivators like them fathom her methods? Escaping unscathed from an early Void Refinement powerhouse was one thing; he would not even be surprised if she killed one instead.
"So, Fellow Daoist Wanmeng, were you waiting here for me because you needed something?"
Chen Lin looked around. Seeing no sign of Jin Xingyun or Dantai Yunjin, he asked.
True Lord Wanmeng nodded. "It's still about exploring the Nightmare Realm. When do you plan to start?"
"There's no rush."
Chen Lin waved a hand. "We can explore the Nightmare Realm anytime. With the Boundary fusion imminent, the sensible thing is to raise our cultivation and strengthen ourselves first, so we're ready for whatever danger may come."
He had many things to do. One was opening his Primordial Spirit Domain; another was investigating Silver Island. If he decided to stay in Central City, he would also need to bring Luo Qinglan over. Time was tight, and he had none to spare for exploring
