Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Lin Jing was startled the moment he saw the secret box.

Afterwards, he controlled the observation angle, continuing to approach.

He didn’t stop until he was close to the secret box.

Then, Lin Jing started to carefully observe the patterns on the box.

After a period of meticulous observation…

Lin Jing finally confirmed that this secret box was exactly the same as the one Senior Han had brought to him before.

This, too, was a bloodline inheritance box of the Lin Family.

Moreover, despite an unknown number of years, the box was undamaged, with its patterns and designs still clearly visible.

Lin Jing then pulled back the viewpoint to look at the two sets of skeletal remains.

The cultivator with the secret box placed upon him had died an unknown time ago; his bones were different from those outside, snow-white and translucent like crystal.

The other, seated cross-legged and facing him, was the one with a hazy light glowing in its eye sockets.

This skeleton was of jade-like quality, without any impurities, even purer than the ones beside the water pool outside.

And.

At the eyebrow center of this jade-like skeleton, there was a black nail about two inches long, piercing through the skull and into the head.

It even nailed the flickering and hazy soul spirit within the bones, leaving it forever unable to escape.

At this time, the soul spirit inside the skull was barely glowing, apparently running out of energy and on the verge of dissipation.

The one with the secret box, whose bones were crystal clear, was very likely an ancestor of the Lin Family.

As for the other, Lin Jing wasn’t sure.

That is, the skeleton with the glowing soul light in the eye sockets.

Lin Jing was now certain that this soul light was definitely the surviving soul mentioned by the senior.

Although it was sitting opposite the Lin Family ancestor, it was not necessarily true that they were on good terms.

It was also very likely that they were enemies.

For safety’s sake, after thoughtful consideration, Lin Jing decided not to take any risks.

Because this surviving soul, in life, could very well have been a cultivator who endured Tribulation or was at the peak of the Mahayana Realm.

Having cultivated to such a level, they would possess all manner of terrifying and strange methods.

These methods were unfathomable, and Lin Jing, even if he tried, could not imagine them, naturally leaving him unprepared.

Even now, when only a faint soul was left, about to be extinguished, Lin Jing dared not act rashly.

For his own safety, Lin Jing still decided to wait, preferably until after the surviving soul had dissipated, before he would take action.

Even if the secret box was incredibly tempting to him.

However, all these could be set aside for the moment.

What he cared about most was actually another matter.

It was about the Trial Grounds, that is, whether the exit to leave Immortal Crossing Island was indeed inside this water pool.

Or, perhaps, there was some Formation inside the pool that concealed the exit.

Because, when Lin Jing was observing from outside earlier, the dense skeletal remains around the water pool made him feel something was off.

There were skeletal remains elsewhere, but compared to those near the pool, they were far fewer.

Lin Jing felt…

The surviving soul didn’t seem to have lied to him in this regard, it seemed that to leave, he would indeed have to go through this pool.

Then, Lin Jing controlled the observation mode, and began exploring inside the water pool.

However, after a complete exploration, he found nothing.

Out of options, Lin Jing could only leave the pool for the time being, using the observation mode.

After leaving the area of the water pool, Lin Jing began to explore within the woods on its edge.

This exploration was done with great care, even including the ground beneath.

After half an hour of thorough searching, Lin Jing had almost turned the place upside down, but still came up empty-handed.

In the end, Lin Jing, with no other choice, exited Observation Mode.

After exiting Observation Mode, Lin Jing sat cross-legged inside the Alchemy Room, contemplating how to enter that water pool to search for clues.

After pondering for a long time…

Lin Jing realized that aside from taking a risk and entering the pool, he had no other method to find the clues to leave.

The key point was that Lin Jing couldn’t gamble with his life; the surviving soul’s former cultivation was too strong, and Lin Jing didn’t trust that it lacked other means.

After his experience with the Zhang Family Patriarch, Lin Jing had come to understand something.

That is, regardless of who it was, they all cherished their lives immensely.

Especially those who had lived longer, they valued their lives even more.

Just like the Zhang Family Patriarch, in his drive to survive, he did not hesitate to fall into the Demonic Path and was even unscrupulous towards his own family members.

The surviving soul currently was at this stage.

It was about to disappear.

Moreover, the senior had specifically warned him that this soul belonged to the kind who were full of tricks and not to be trusted.

Before this.

The surviving soul had told him so much, and Lin Jing suspected that it was trying to lure him over, perhaps wanting to be freed by him.

Or maybe it intended to seize his body.

Lin Jing thought…

Even if he were to enter the water pool, he must wait until after the soul spirit was extinguished.

The surviving soul seemed like it could not hold on much longer, and Lin Jing decided to wait a bit longer to see.

To see whether the surviving soul was truly as weak as it seemed.

Although Lin Jing wanted to leave, he could still afford to wait a bit longer at this point.

After formulating a plan, Lin Jing directly bypassed the pool and continued to explore other areas.

……

After a period of exploration, Lin Jing finally confirmed that this pool was the center of the desert.

During this time, Lin Jing also finally understood why this pool was the way out.

The phantom soul had indeed not deceived him.

When the night of the full moon came, moonlight sprinkled onto the surface of the water, and the pool began to change.

It was also when Lin Jing was investigating the aura of the phantom soul that he discovered the changes in the pool.

At that moment,

moonlight sprinkled over the pool, reflecting the moon in the sky, and the moon’s reflection in the water grew increasingly bright.

Eventually, it even reflected above the pool.

In the space above the pool, a peculiar entrance with a teleportation function was formed.

When Lin Jing saw this scene, he was stunned on the spot.

He hadn’t expected the entrance to be like this.

Lin Jing could even see some of the scenes inside the entrance.

Inside, it seemed like the outside desert, a place ravaged by fierce winds.

However, due to the raging winds inside and the sky filled with yellow sand, many things were obscured from sight.

Lin Jing didn’t see much.

But what he saw was enough.

Now that Lin Jing knew this was the entrance to the Trial Grounds, all he had to do next was wait.

He would wait for the phantom soul to completely vanish before he would try to venture into the Trial Grounds.

During this time of exploration, Lin Jing also discovered that the light emitted by the phantom soul grew dimmer and dimmer.

Clearly, it was about to give out.

So Lin Jing waited just outside the oasis, waiting for the disappearance of the phantom soul.

While waiting in boredom, upon seeing the sandstorm, he suddenly thought of the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique he had acquired from the Storage Bag of the Wu Cai Immortal.

Lin Jing had glanced over that technique a bit.

It included methods of tempering the body using various harsh environments.

And the sandstorm in the desert was just such a harsh environment, perfect for practicing the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique.

Moreover, lately,

Lin Jing needed to conserve his time in the System Space, meaning he had to spend most of his time in the desert outside of it.

Since there was no Spiritual Energy in the desert and he couldn’t practice other spells, he might as well spend the time practicing the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique.

Thinking this, Lin Jing entered the System Space, took out the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique, and began the first step of training.

……

Time flew by quickly, and a month passed.

When Lin Jing took the time to investigate again, he incidentally discovered that the phantom soul within the bones had disappeared without a trace.

Lin Jing then conducted a meticulous exploration and finally confirmed this fact.

After the phantom soul dissipated, Lin Jing did not rush forward; instead, he continued to return to the turbulent sandstorm.

Because Lin Jing had not witnessed how the phantom soul had dissipated, he was not entirely sure it had truly gone.

So for now, Lin Jing decided to continue waiting.

Anyway, he was about to reach the eighth level of Foundation Establishment. Lin Jing decided that once he broke through to the eighth level, he would go back to the pool for another look.

Subsequently, Lin Jing left the oasis and continued to enter the sandstorm area to practice the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique.

Time is like flowing water, fleeting in an instant.

Quickly, another month passed.

In this desert of sand dancing wildly in the sky.

A person suddenly appeared out of nowhere with bronze-colored skin that made him look very strong. He just stood in the midst of the fierce wind, completely defenseless.

The violent winds, laden with yellow sand and gravel, struck the person’s body, but he did not react at all.

This suddenly appearing person was Lin Jing, who had just advanced to the eighth layer of Foundation Establishment.

Lin Jing looked at his strong physique, which had caused the clothes he had prepared to stretch almost to the point of tearing.

He couldn’t help but smile wryly.

He hadn’t expected that after practicing the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique, the muscles on his body would uncontrollably experience an explosive increase.

Lin Jing’s current appearance was that of an extremely strong man, vastly different from his former self.

However, the benefits of practicing the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique were evident.

Now, Lin Jing didn’t need to use a Spiritual Shield at all in the desert. He just stood there, and the sandstorm could not harm him.

This saved him a lot of trouble.

Now that it had been a whole month since the phantom soul had dissipated, it was time for Lin Jing to explore further.

However, he always remembered the words entrusted to him by his senior. For this exploration, Lin Jing naturally would not go unprepared.

This time, he also took out the gourd left behind after he had killed Liu Yiyuan.

Lin Jing had checked the gourd again a few days before.

No matter what methods Lin Jing used, the gourd remained unresponsive.

However, Lin Jing knew one of the gourd’s characteristics — it could allow the Soul Spirit to attach to it. He took out the gourd because he was interested in this particular feature of the gourd.

If the phantom soul wasn’t dead, perhaps, he might be able to rely on this gourd to accomplish a great feat…
