Chapter 300: 2 A Fruitful Harvest
If he encountered danger, he could hide inside the System Space.
Next, Lin Jing was in no hurry to leave, preferring to make proper preparations before departing.
Afterward, he remembered that during his time at Qinghuang Palace, Huang Qingling had given him a Storage Bag and a Space Ring.
Those were the belongings of Wu Cai Immortal and the Zhang Family Patriarch.
Until now, Lin Jing hadn’t checked them.
Both of them, being patriarchs of their families, definitely possessed no small amount of wealth.
Thinking about it,
there should be some Forbidden Artifacts or high-level Talismans in the storage space.
But then Lin Jing also remembered the last great battle between the two.
With their fight being so fierce, could it be that all of those Forbidden Artifacts and treasures like Magical Treasures had been used up?
For a time, Lin Jing felt uncertain.
“Regardless of whether there’s anything or not, I’ll just have a look first,” Lin Jing mumbled to himself.
Then, he first opened the Storage Bag and sent his Divine Sense into it.
“There truly are a lot of Spirit Stones in this Storage Bag,”
Lin Jing, who had just probed into the Storage Bag, couldn’t help but remark upon seeing the mountainous piles of Spirit Stones.
A large pile of Medium Grade Spirit Stones was stacked in one corner of the Storage Bag.
Lin Jing roughly estimated that there were about two hundred thousand of these Medium Grade Spirit Stones.
“Tsk tsk… so many Spirit Stones.”
“Indeed, the efficiency with which a family earns Spirit Stones is so much higher than that of an individual,” Lin Jing thought to himself.
Thinking back on how he had struggled for several years to barely accumulate over thirty thousand, less than forty thousand Spirit Stones, Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel emotional.
If other Foundation Establishment Cultivators heard Lin Jing’s casual words, they probably would cough up blood.
For other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, managing to harvest a few hundred Medium Grade Spirit Stones in a year would already be considered extremely fortunate.
In just a few short years, Lin Jing had earned so much, yet he still wasn’t satisfied.
Next to the pile of Medium Grade Spirit Stones, there were also about twenty somewhat larger Spirit Stones.
Lin Jing had seen these Spirit Stones before and knew they were Superior Grade Spirit Stones.
The reason there were only so many was that there were no Superior Grade Spirit Stone veins in the entire Nanming Domain.
To acquire Superior Grade Spirit Stones, one had to go through the Demonic Monster Sea or obtain them from other places.
……..
After that, Lin Jing no longer paid attention to these Spirit Stones and continued to search through the Storage Bag.
Elixir Medicines, materials, rare ores, and more…
The Storage Bag had everything one could need.
Later, Lin Jing also found several secret manuals piled together.
He immediately became interested.
Previously, during the confrontation between the Zhang Family Patriarch and Wu Cai Immortal, he had heard…
that the Five Elements Divine Art practiced by Wu Cai Immortal was originally one with the Immortal Five Elements Technique…
The Immortal Five Elements Technique that Lin Jing cultivated would be perfectly complemented by the Five Elements Divine Art.
Lin Jing then took out all the secret manuals.
Fire Element Cultivation Method, Flame Ridge Sword Technique, Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique…
Clearly, these techniques were all collected by the Wǔ Cǎi Immortal.
But upon inspection, it was obvious that they were not suitable for Lin Jing to cultivate.
Of course, that excluded the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique.
However, Lin Jing currently had no intention of practicing body refinement, so he simply cast it aside.
Soon, Lin Jing flipped to the last page.
At the bottom was a Jade Slip with the four large characters ‘Five Elements Divine Art’ etched on it.
It seemed this was indeed the Five Elements Divine Art.
Lin Jing held the Jade Slip in his hand, then sent his Divine Sense into it.
“Five Elements, the root of heaven and earth; Five Spirits, the harmony of heaven and earth…”
A quarter of an hour later, Lin Jing withdrew his Divine Sense.
He now had a preliminary understanding of the Five Elements Divine Art.
It indeed matched with the Immortal Five Elements Technique, and since Lin Jing had already cultivated the Immortal Five Elements Technique, cultivating the Five Elements Divine Art would make its power even stronger.
However, cultivation isn’t something that can be achieved in a short moment.
Thus, Lin Jing stopped focusing on the Five Elements Divine Art and continued to search inside the Storage Bag.
After a period of exploration, Lin Jing had sorted out everything inside.
Inside, he found another third-rank Spirit Grass, the Rockheart Grass.
Sadly, Lin Jing already had one, and there were also a few Magic Artifacts with special functions, along with two Magical Treasures.
The Talismans and Forbidden Artifacts that Lin Jing had been longing for were nowhere to be found, not even a single low-ranked, Second Rank Talisman.
“Perhaps he used these items during combat, or maybe they were not very useful to him, so he gave them all away,”
Lin Jing speculated.
Those two Magical Treasures were a Flying Sword and a black sphere whose purpose was unknown.
Magical Treasures weren’t what Lin Jing was currently considering.
Refining a Magical Treasure takes a very long time, and if he had plenty of time, he could consider making an effort to refine it.
But for now, he decided against it.
If the outside world remained this dangerous, Lin Jing needed to figure out how to escape as soon as possible.
Otherwise, once the time in System Space ran out,
that would signify Lin Jing’s death.
Next, Lin Jing put down the Storage Bag and picked up the Space Ring belonging to the Zhang Family Patriarch beside him.
Once again, he used his Divine Sense to probe inside. Since Huang Qingling had already broken the seal on the Space Ring, Lin Jing encountered no resistance and entered it effortlessly.
The items inside the Zhang Family Patriarch’s Space Ring weren’t much different from those of the Wu Cai Immortal, only the number of Spirit Stones was far fewer, at just under a hundred thousand.
However, inside this Space Ring,
Lin Jing discovered two valuable items…
The Nirvana Flower, and the Immortal Five Elements Technique.
The Nirvana Flower needed no further mention.
It’s the main ingredient for refining the Nirvana Elixir, incredibly precious.
It was something the Zhang Family Patriarch had snatched from a Demon Cultivator with a wolf’s head.
The only regrettable thing was that this Nirvana Flower had no roots or seeds, so it could only be used in elixir making and couldn’t be grown.
This made Lin Jing sigh for quite a while.
Next was the Immortal Five Elements Technique.
The Immortal Five Elements Technique that Lin Jing originally obtained from the Zhang Family Patriarch could only be cultivated up to the Golden Core Stage.
However, the Immortal Five Elements Technique inside this Space Ring included an additional volume for cultivation during the Nascent Soul Stage.
Originally, Lin Jing thought that after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, he would have to switch to another cultivation technique.
Now, with the presence of this advanced technique, Lin Jing didn’t have to worry anymore.
Apart from these, there were no more items that interested Lin Jing.
Of course.
He also saw the Demonic Techniques the Zhang Family Patriarch practiced.
However, Lin Jing had no plans to cultivate such malevolent Demonic Techniques and disregarded them, casting them aside.
Both Storage Spaces contained many items, and Lin Jing’s harvest was considerable.
It was just unfortunate that he couldn’t find anything that was currently useful to him.
Lin Jing was well aware he could no longer continue to stay within System Space.
It was crucial for him to leave and find a way out.
Afterward, Lin Jing first used Observation Mode to take a look around.
Seeing no danger and deciding on a direction to move forward, he left System Space.
After emerging from System Space, Lin Jing extended his Divine Sense, vigilantly monitoring the outside world, and went on his way cautiously.
In this place, the Spiritual Energy was incredibly dense.
Moreover, the varieties of flowers, plants, and trees differed from what Lin Jing usually encountered, appearing quite bizarre.
Also,
within this dense forest, there would occasionally be cloud-like white fog drifting by.
If not for the firm ground under his feet,
Lin Jing might have doubted whether he was among the clouds in the sky…
