Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Regretting So Much that Intestines Turned Green
At this thought, Lin Jing couldn’t help but sigh.
“Sigh…”
“Forget it, this isn’t something I can get involved in…”
“If there really are other Demon Cultivators native to that Secret Realm, I guess I’d have to rely on the Qingyuan Sword Sect to clean up the mess when the time comes.”
Afterwards…
Lin Jing, carrying the Spirit Plant, walked towards the Spirit Field.
No longer thinking about those messy matters.
Next, the most important thing was to plant these two Spirit Plants as soon as possible.
Upon arriving at Spirit Field Number One, Lin Jing first took out the Cleansing Spirit Flower and planted it.
As soon as he planted it, a system notification sound rang out.
“System Notification: Congratulations to the host for planting a high-grade Spirit Plant. This Spirit Plant is in a damaged state and currently cannot grow.”
“Repair is possible. Repairing will consume 20 Harvest Points.”
“Would the host like to repair this Spirit Plant?”
“Repair!”
Lin Jing said without hesitation.
As his voice faded, a ray of light swept over the Cleansing Spirit Flower.
Then, the system’s notification sounded again.
“System Notification: Spirit Plant repair successful. 20 Harvest Points deducted. Current Harvest Points remaining: 1530.”
Seeing the repair was complete, Lin Jing promptly spoke again.
“System, show the current status of the Cleansing Spirit Flower.”
Then, a panel appeared above the just-planted Cleansing Spirit Flower.
Spirit Plant: Cleansing Spirit Flower
Current Environment: Uninhabited Mountains
Current environment matches, rapid growth in progress, time until maturity: 10 years.
The Cleansing Spirit Flower had been planted; all that was left to do now was to wait for it to mature. Regrettably, a wait of ten years was a bit too long.
Next, Lin Jing took out the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.
This Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, unlike the Cleansing Spirit Flower, was comparatively intact. Aside from its missing fruits, the rest of it, like the roots, stems, and leaves, were all present.
Presumably, it should be able to be planted directly without needing any repairs.
Afterward, Lin Jing dug open the Spirit Field and buried the roots of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit into the soil.
After the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit was planted, system notifications came once more:
“System Notification: Congratulations to the host for planting a high-grade Spirit Plant.”
After this notification, there were no more, clearly indicating that the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit was indeed intact and did not require repairs.
Lin Jing spoke up again.
“System, show the current status of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.”
Then, a panel appeared above the recently planted Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.
Lin Jing looked at the panel, and the information displayed made him furrow his brows.
Spirit Plant: Blood Red Vermilion Fruit
Current Environment: Uninhabited Mountains
The current environment is highly incompatible; the Spirit Plant cannot grow normally, entering dormancy…
(Note: This Spirit Plant originates from a special Secret Realm. The System is currently unable to simulate the environment of the Secret Realm. Please obtain a soil sample from the Secret Realm and plant it together with this Spirit Plant in order to simulate the growth environment for the Spirit Plant.)
This series of notifications…
It seemed that the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit truly did come from the Demon Race Secret Realm.
Now, in order for this Blood Red Vermilion Fruit to mature, a soil sample from the Demon Race Secret Realm was actually needed.
This momentarily stumped Lin Jing.
At this time, the situation inside the Demon Race Secret Realm was unclear, potentially extremely dangerous.
To enter and collect a soil sample…
At this thought, Lin Jing shook his head.
“Forget it, let’s not think about it for now…”
“Given the current unclear situation inside the Demon Race Secret Realm, let those Golden Core Immortals go in to explore first.”
“Once the situation is clear and it’s safe to enter, then we’ll talk about it…”
Alas, having obtained a Blood Red Vermilion Fruit and now being unable to grow it left Lin Jing feeling quite helpless.
“Sigh…”
Lin Jing sighed in frustration. Just then, he suddenly thought of something and blurted out:
“No… ”
“I had a soil sample…”
“Damn it… ”
“I scattered it…”
Lin Jing remembered, when he first obtained the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…
There was some black soil clinging to this rootstock.
That must have been the Demon Race Secret Realm soil sample he needed.
He had been annoyed by the dirt on it and had even cleaned it off on purpose.
Now that he thought about it, Lin Jing regretted it so much that his guts turned green.
At this moment, even if he wanted to find that soil, it would probably be hard to locate.
The exact location of that place was already a bit hazy in Lin Jing’s memory.
Moreover…
He had just returned, and he estimated that the battle over there was still going on, immensely dangerous.
Even if Lin Jing knew the location, he couldn’t go there now…
Afterward, Lin Jing pondered for a moment and then made a decision; he still planned to go and look for that soil.
But not right now…
At the very least, he had to wait until the battle there was over and it was no longer dangerous before he went to look.
Next, Lin Jing stayed in the System Space, didn’t leave, and started his alchemy, preparing to refine a few batches of Elixir Medicine first.
It wasn’t until the next day that Lin Jing went out, intending to visit Yuebaolou to see if he could hear any news about what happened yesterday.
Yuebaolou, being so large, had people coming and going every day; generally, any news would quickly spread there.
However, before he reached Yuebaolou, while walking on the street, Lin Jing heard some people quietly discussing the incident that happened yesterday ahead of him.
Lin Jing hurriedly quickened his pace, came a bit closer to the two people, and perked up his ears to listen intently.
“Brother Zhang, have you heard…”
“Yesterday, several Golden Core Immortals from the Fang Market fought a big battle with some outsiders…”
“It’s said that the opponent was a Golden Core Peak cultivator, quite formidable, and the Golden Core Immortals from the market sustained serious injuries.”
The man referred to as Brother Zhang responded:
“I’ve heard about it too, but the version I heard is different from yours…”
“Oh…?”
“What version did you hear, Brother Zhang? Feel free to share…”
After speaking, this person leaned in closer, cupping his ear.
“I heard that the one who fought with the Golden Core Immortals from the Fang Market wasn’t a Human Cultivator, but a Demon Cultivator…”
“Hiss… A Demon Cultivator…” The other man gasped in shock.
“When did such a powerful Demon Cultivator appear in the Night Mist Mountain Range?”
The cultivator surnamed Zhang shook his head and said:
“It’s said…”
“That Demon Cultivator didn’t come out of the Night Mist Mountain Range, but from the Secret Realm that caused the beast tide…”
The other man asked doubtfully, “Isn’t it said that the Secret Realm was sealed?”
“Wasn’t it the Qingyuan Sword Sect that sent people to seal it? How come there’s a Demon Cultivator coming out of it now?”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator spread his hands and said:
“I’m not sure about that…”
Then, the man spoke again to the cultivator surnamed Zhang:
“Brother Zhang…”
“Why don’t we go to the place where they fought and take a look?”
“That’s where the Golden Core battle took place, leaving behind traces…”
“I heard that the battlefield isn’t far from the Fang Market, and many people went there this morning.”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator nodded and said:
“Alright…”
“I was thinking the same thing…”
“Perhaps if we’re lucky, we might find some remaining treasures…” The man appeared somewhat excited.
“Don’t get your hopes up, even if there are any, being this late, it won’t be our turn…”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator was quite calm.
After speaking, the two men quickened their pace and headed forward.
