Since he had made up his mind, Chen Chen began to make preparations. It was not until three days later that he left ascending dragon city.
Before he left, he still informed the Heavenly Demon City Lord of the news of his trip to the northern region.
“Master, I will need some time to go to the northern region to look for some opportunities. If the dark suppression army has any missions during this period of time, I might not be able to participate. I hope that Master can help me explain when the time comes.”
The Lord of the Heavenly Devil City had always felt guilty towards Chen Chen, so when he saw this news, he naturally agreed. At the same time, he also promised that Chen Chen could mobilize some of the experts of the Heavenly Devil City to help him in the northem region.
With this guarantee, Chen Chen finally relaxed and went to the northem region in peace. Otherwise, he would not be able to bear the crime of disobeying orders in the future.
After running for a few days, Chen Chen arrived at the headquarters of the Heavenly Devil City in the Northern Region. This headquarters was called the Heavenly Devil City, and it was a super city on the same level as true spirit city.
As the headquarters of Heavenly Demon City, there was more than one Mahayana realm warrior guarding it. However, Chen Chen did not alert these experts. Instead, he entered as an ordinary heavenly demon city cultivator.
Heavenly Demon City was about 60,000 miles away from the falling star stream. He could reach it directly by flying.
The reason why Chen Chen came to heavenly demon city was that the city had all kinds of shops. Moreover, heavenly demon city was not too far away from the falling star stream. He could ask for more information about the falling star stream here.
Although he had made some preparations before coming here, he did not have any magic treasures that specifically dealt with the falling star stream in the southem domain.
He casually entered a relatively large cultivation supplies store, and immediately, a female cultivator in the store came up to him with a smile.
Chen Chen did not wait for her to speak. He directly asked, “I want to go to the falling star stream. What should I prepare?”
Hearing that Chen Chen wanted to go to the falling star stream, the female cultivator looked at Chen Chen in surprise, then, she replied, “Senior, if you want to go to the falling star stream, you must prepare some god-subduing pills. These pills can resist the negative effects of some of the Falling Star
Stream’s stardust fragments. In addition, you can’t even see your fingers in the falling star stream, and your spiritual sense is easily affected by the Stardust fragments. Therefore, senior, you also need a flying boat that can point out the direction…”
“Then give me two sets.”
Chen Chen did not hesitate and directly stretched out two fingers.
The female cultivator saw this and said in astonishment, “Senior, you really want to go? Do you know that these two things are just basic equipment that any cultivator will bring in? But even so, there will still be many cultivators who will die.”
Chen Chen smiled. This female shop assistant’s character was not bad. She even worried about his safety while doing business. Perhaps it was because he was handsome and unrestrained.
“Then what should I do? To tell you the truth, this is my first time in the northern region. I’ve only heard of the falling star stream for a long time. I’ve never entered it before.”
Seeing Chen Chen’s humble attitude, the female cultivator invited him to sit down in the inner hall of the shop, then, she said, “Entering the falling star stream is no small matter. Senior, it’s your first time entering it. If you really barge in with just these two things, it would be no different from sending
yourself to your death.”
“T’d like to hear the details.”
As Chen Chen said that, he took out a few top-grade spirit stones and placed them on the table.
The female cultivator immediately revealed a smile on her face. She did not stand on ceremony and sat opposite Chen Chen.
“Senior, it’s your first time going there. You must be led by someone who is familiar with the environment of the fallen star stream. I now a person who enters the fallen star stream once a year and has returned safely for eight consecutive years.”
“So Powerful?”
Chen Chen praised.
“Yes, that senior was only in the form synthesis stage eight years ago. But after entering the fallen star stream eight times, he obtained many opportunities. Now, he is already a cultivator in the crossing calamity stage and rarely appears in the city. However, I know his address.”
Hearing this, Chen Chen took out a few top-grade spirit stones and placed them on the table.
If he could find a guide on this trip, that would be the best.
After all, the Falling Star Stream was a dangerous place, so he did not dare to be careless.
“That senior lives on Devil Cloud Mountain outside the city. He is a loose cultivator with the nickname ‘Layman cloudy stream’. If you can let him bring you into the falling star stream, then this trip will definitely be much safer. Even if layman cloudy stream is unwilling, you can learn more about the
falling star stream from him.”
“Thank you for your guidance. Give me two sets of god-subduing pills and a flying boat. I’ll go to Devil Cloud Mountain right away.”
After saying this, Chen Chen pushed all the supreme-grade spirit stones in front of the female cultivator.
After leaving Heavenly Devil City, Chen Chen came to Devil Cloud Mountain.
Layman Cloudy Brook was a tribulation transcending cultivator after all and was quite famous in this area. Chen Chen soon found the location of his immortal’s Cave.
‘When he saw Layman Cloudy Brook, he didn’t hide anything. Instead, he directly revealed his identity as the disciple of the Heavenly Devil City Lord.
With such an illustrious identity, there was no need to use it.
After the white-faced and beardless layman Cloudy Brook learned of Chen Chen’s identity, his attitude immediately became much more respectful.
To be honest, although he was a cultivator who had transcended the heavenly tribulation, he was only an itinerant cultivator. Compared to Chen Chen’s identity, the difference was like heaven and earth. If it weren’t for his lowly status, he wouldn’t have taken the risk to enter falling star stream in the first
place.
“Fellow Daoist Chen, did you enter the falling star stream to look for someone?”
In Layman Yunjian’s opinion, an almighty disciple like Chen Chen wouldn’t lack resources. Most likely, he entered the falling star stream to look for someone.
However, Chen Chen shook his head.
“No, I’m looking for something special. I wonder if fellow Daoist would be willing to come with me. If this trip goes smoothly, I definitely won’t mistreat fellow Daoist.”
After saying this much, he offered a price that even ordinary tribulation transcending cultivators couldn’t refuse.
Layman Yunjian was naturally moved. He asked, “Fellow Daoist Chen, are you in a hurry to go in?”
“The sooner the better.”
“Sigh, I usually enter falling star stream in August every year. It’s only march now, but for fellow Daoist Chen’s sake, I can make an exception and enter five months in advance. I wonder if fellow Daoist Chen would mind bringing a few more people along?”
Hearing this, Chen Chen slightly raised his eyebrows.
It wasn’t easy for this layman to enter the falling star stream, and he seemed to be preparing to earn a few more money.
If he were to go look for some great treasure, Chen Chen definitely wouldn’t agree.
But that immortal had been buried for God knows how many years, and his body was probably already rotten. The things he carried with him were probably almost rotten. What he was looking for were some books and information that were only useful to him.., there shouldn’t be anyone who would
snatch these things from him.
Since that was the case, there was no harm in bringing a few more people. In such a sinister and treacherous place like the falling star stream, it would be safer if a few people went together.
“Who are these people?”
Chen Chen asked indifferently.
Layman Yunjian rubbed his hands, his expression awkward.
“There are only two itinerant cultivators in total. One of them is an early stage tribulation transcending cultivator who went in to look for an opportunity, and the other is a peak form synthesis cultivator. He went in to look for his Daoist partner who got lost in the falling star stream some time ago.
“Of course, if fellow Daoist Chen is unwilling, I will immediately reject them.”
“Then, if I don’t appear, will they have to wait for you for five months?”Chen Chen’s expression was like a smile that wasn’t a smile.
He could enter whenever he wanted to look for an opportunity, but if he were to delay the search for the person for five months, even if he were to find him, it would already be completely cold.
In just a few sentences, he had already figured out the temperament of this layman of the Falling Star Stream.
It was obvious that he was a mercenary and was not as indifferent as his nickname.
Layman Cloudy Brook’s expression became serious as he said, “They can go on their own without waiting for their own wishes.
“Anyway, I will bring ten fellow Daoists in every August. Out of the ten fellow Daoists who went in with me last year, a total of eight came out alive. If it wasn’t for the two fallen ones who didn’t listen to me and acted on their own accord.., “They might have followed me back.”
