Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 319: 21 Exterminate the Remaining Souls

Chapter 319: Chapter 21 Exterminate the Remaining Souls

The elder mentioned by Lin Feiling must be the Lin Family ancestor he had just envisioned.

“Within the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique, there has always been a fragment of my soul spirit.”

Having said that, he smiled and said to Lin Jing,

“It’s all thanks to you for opening that secret box. Otherwise, this fragment of my soul spirit would not have been able to come out.”

“You’re at the Foundation Establishment Stage, yet you’ve landed on Immortal Crossing Island. It seems that this is the will of heaven.”

“Hahaha…”

The more the elder spoke, the more excited he became. It seemed that being sealed for so long had been torturous for him.

However, Lin Jing’s face did not show the slightest hint of panic.

“If I hadn’t gone to remove the Spirit-Suppressing Nail, how would you have escaped your predicament?”

“As soon as you released me, the extraction of the Spirit-Suppressing Nail had already begun.”

“By now, it should be almost done, right?”

The elder casually smiled and said,

“Otherwise, why do you think I told you so much?”

“It was all to buy time.”

“So, what are you planning now? Are you going to seize my body, or what?” Lin Jing asked, looking at the elder.

The elder scoffed and said, “Seize your body?”

“Why would I seize your body?”

“At our level of cultivation, as long as the soul spirit is not destroyed, one can always condense a body.”

“Now that my Soul Spirit is severely damaged, I just need to recuperate it, and then I will completely recover.”

“However, speaking of which, I must thank you for that gourd. I didn’t expect you to have such a Dao treasure.”

“If you weren’t a remnant of the Lin Family, I might have even considered taking you as my disciple.”

Lin Jing fell silent for a moment, then spoke again,

“Your soul spirit has already possessed the gourd, haven’t you? Aren’t you afraid that I will destroy your soul spirit?”

“Trying to intimidate me?” The elder couldn’t help but snort in disdain.

“Indeed, I have possessed the gourd, and I also know that you haven’t refined it at all.”

Then he looked at Lin Jing with contempt,

“With your current cultivation and the means you possess, you can’t do anything to that gourd, let alone my Soul Spirit.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can try.”

After saying these things, when the elder looked at Lin Jing again, his eyes were filled with amusement:

“Now my Soul Spirit resides in your gourd and is extremely weak. I’d like to see how you’re going to destroy me?”

“If you can’t, be careful of your own life when I recover, hahaha…”

Having finished speaking, the remaining soul spirit completely dissipated from Lin Jing’s Divine Sense.

And Lin Jing also withdrew from his Divine Sense.

When he opened his eyes again, Lin Jing was by the water’s edge.

At this moment, everything was as usual.

The secret box, the Jade Slips, and the gourd were still placed beside him.

However, the entire gourd had turned completely black, clearly showing that the elder’s Soul Spirit had attached itself to it.

Lin Jing’s Divine Sense reached out, and he could distinctly feel the extremely weakened strength of the Soul Spirit.

Then, Lin Jing looked around.

Three Jade Slips lay by his side, and on the ground next to them were two drops of blood that had not yet dried.

There were only three Jade Slips in total; there was no fourth blank Jade Slip.

Clearly, the elder had not lied.

Within the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique, there truly was a strand of his Spirit that had influenced Lin Jing’s perception upon opening the secret box.

And thus, he saw that non-existent blank Jade Slip.

What followed was a series of events.

At this moment, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense probed towards the bottom of the pool again.

At the bottom of the water pool, the two dry skeletons were still sitting cross-legged.

Only, the Soul-Sealing Nail had already fallen.

Now that the Soul-Sealing Nail had fallen, the fragment had released the elder’s Soul Spirit, which had hid inside his own gourd.

Then, Lin Jing picked up the gourd and shook it in his hand.

Yet the Soul Spirit attached to it showed no reaction.

Obviously, it was extremely weak and trying to find a way to recover.

Naturally, Lin Jing wasn’t about to let it recover so easily.

In fact, Lin Jing had been on alert ever since that elder, pretending to be an ancestor of the Lin Family, mentioned opening up his Divine Sense.

Then, Lin Jing tested the waters.

But the elder was very good at disguising himself and didn’t reveal any flaws.

After that, Lin Jing brought up the gourd.

Based on the little information Lin Jing had received before, he surmised that this Soul Spirit must have been incredibly powerful in life.

But even when Lin Jing first arrived, he was already very weak, and even if he wasn’t exactly as Lin Jing had seen, he might not have been far from it.

Otherwise, he would not have let Lin Jing leave so easily.

For Lin Jing, he had always used the gourd as bait.

What Lin Jing was most afraid of was the possession by this remaining soul spirit, which was why he immediately retreated the first time he heard the soul spirit’s transmission.

Even though the soul spirit was very weak at that time.

But since he had been so powerful in life, Lin Jing had to be cautious.

That’s why he only dared to go into the water after the remaining soul spirit had dissipated.

But even so, the cunning soul spirit was just feigning death.

However, there’s no need to worry now.

As long as the soul spirit has taken possession of the gourd, its life is in Lin Jing’s hands.

There’s no way.

No matter what, he would never expect that Lin Jing possessed a System Space, capable of grinding away any living being.

Then, Lin Jing picked up the secret box and the Jade Slip from the ground.

After that, with a gourd in hand, he silently recited in his heart:

“Enter the System Space!”

Instantly, the scene before Lin Jing’s eyes changed, and he arrived inside the System Space.

It was at this moment that the system warning suddenly sounded:

“Warning!”

“A special Spiritual Body has entered the System Space, initiating eradication immediately!”

The soul remnants that were originally planning to recover suddenly felt a sense of extreme fear wash over them.

This feeling of terror was even stronger than facing the most brutal life-and-death crisis.

No longer able to remain calm, the soul then thrust out from the gourd.

“What is this place…?”

However, before the words had completely left its mouth, that feeling of extreme terror had already descended upon it.

Lin Jing saw that the soul was being disassembled bit by bit.

At this time, the remnant soul, looking at its own Spiritual Body, could no longer maintain its previous arrogance, and sheer panic was written all over its face.

“What is this…?”

“And who on earth are you…?”

“No…”

The disintegration happened at an incredibly fast pace, and in just a moment, the remnant soul had been completely dissolved.

Lin Jing then looked at the gourd in his hand, which had now returned to its previous state.

He wasn’t reassured yet, so he took the Jade Slips and the secret box in his hands again.

To see if any remnants of the soul still existed.

But this time, there were no more system prompts.

After doing all this, Lin Jing directly exited the System Space.

Then, he plunged into the pond.

Upon reaching the bottom of the pond, Lin Jing immediately saw the Spirit-Suppressing Nail that had fallen to the ground.

After that.

Lin Jing reached out and picked up the Spirit-Suppressing Nail.

But just at that moment, something changed suddenly.

A powerful force of the Soul Spirit burst forth from within the Spirit-Suppressing Nail, attempting to rush into Lin Jing’s Divine Sense.

Suddenly.

A fiery red soul light burst forth, and the image of the Divine Phoenix reappeared, emitting a strong glow, blocking the remnant soul from entering.

At the same time, a system warning also sounded at this time.

“Warning!”

“Within the defensive perimeter, someone is harboring lethal intentions towards the host. Please respond in a timely manner.”

This time it wasn’t a false alarm; inside the Spirit-Suppressing Nail was, indeed, another remnant soul.

Or perhaps…

This black nail wasn’t a Spirit-Suppressing Nail at all, but rather something like a Dao treasure that housed a soul spirit.

Lin Jing gripped the Spirit-Suppressing Nail tightly and once again entered the System Space.

This time, just like before…

The remnant soul inside the Spirit-Suppressing Nail had barely entered the System Space when it felt something was wrong. It had barely thought to resist when it was outright obliterated by the System Space.

After that remnant soul was eradicated, the Spirit-Suppressing Nail also changed; the shape of the nail remained unchanged, but what was originally a black nail turned into one with rainbow colors.

Having extinguished the remnant soul hidden within the nail, Lin Jing was drenched in sweat.

This remnant soul was too bizarre.

So far, Lin Jing had encountered a total of three remnant souls.

Why did this person have so many? This was something that Lin Jing truly couldn’t understand.

Then Lin Jing remembered the ‘Dao Transformation Divinity Technique’ housed in the secret box; it seemed that all the secrets lay within this Cultivation Technique.

After resting for a while, Lin Jing once again went out of the System Space.

Next, he brought both of the skeletal remains from the bottom of the pond into the System Space for a check.

This time, there were no surprises.

These two skeletal remains were indeed unproblematic.

After that, he took the remains out again and returned them to their original places.

Then, Lin Jing continued to search around the bottom of the pond for a while, and after finding no issues, he finally returned to the edge of the pond.

Afterward, Lin Jing directly entered the System Space, and without attending to anything else, started to study the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique there.

He wanted to understand what this technique was like and also to familiarize himself with it, to see if there were any other similar remnant souls around.

……

Soon, several days passed.

And Lin Jing had gained a preliminary understanding of the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique.

This Dao Transformation Divinity Technique wasn’t just any ordinary cultivation technique; it could strengthen the Soul Spirit and also split it.

Thus creating a unique and unparalleled avatar belonging to oneself.

This avatar was closely connected to the original, but the two did not affect each other.

In battle, the original could separate from the avatar at any time, catching the enemy off guard.

However, after practicing the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique, one could only split out one avatar.

Moreover, the strength of the avatar was limited by the strength of the Soul Spirit split from the original.

The stronger the Soul Spirit, the stronger the avatar would be; the lesser the Soul Spirit split off, the weaker the avatar’s strength would be.

This was a minor flaw of the technique.

Because if too much Soul Spirit was split off, the original would actually become quite vulnerable.

The remnant soul hidden in the secret box on the technique was another function of the Dao Transformation Divinity Technique.

This kind of split remnant soul had no offensive power and could not pose a threat to anyone.

After thoroughly understanding the technique, Lin Jing finally let out a sigh of relief.

The remnant soul had finally been eliminated by him and no longer posed any threat.
