Seeing the straightforward answer of the system, Lin Wu was happy.
"System, Scan all the data nodes and update the data banks." Lin Wu ordered.

"Now that this is also being done, I wonder if the process of deriving a method to refine spirit sense will take longer? Looks like I can just wait and see." Lin Wu muttered to himself before taking a look outside.
He saw that Shirong was muttering something and then started eating some of the pills that were given to him by the clan heads. He then sat in a meditative pose and started to heal his injuries using the medical properties of the alchemical pills.
While he was doing this, his spirit sense was reduced to a small area of one meter around his body, which also restricted Lin Wu's field of vision.
"Ah damn, now I can't see anything outside…" Lin Wu complained.
Seeing that it would most likely take Shirong a while to wake up and the same with the system, Lin Wu decided to take a closer look at all the items in the list.
He read each item one by one and also their descriptions. There were some unique items that were unknown to him, such as a few talismans. Because he could not read it, he couldn't tell what use they had, but with the system's explanation, that was solved.
Another rather strange thing Lin Wu discovered was the clothes in the ring. There were probably around a thousand pairs of clothes in the ring.
"Oh damn, why does he have so many clothes? They don't even have different designs most of them look similar." Lin Wu said upon looking through the clothes,
In the thousand clothes, there were only 10 different designs, which meant that there were a hundred copies of the same type of clothes.
"Is he obsessive about these particular designs, or does he not like fashion, perhaps?" Lin Wu wondered.
After thinking over it for a minute, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind. Or rather than an idea, it was a question that he had in his mind for quite a while ever since he started Reading all the cultivation novels.
The question was: With the number of battles that cultivators have, what do they do with their clothes when they get damaged?
This question was now answered with a first hand experience.
"So their solution to that problem is just… more clothes? Huh, that was rather… simple, I guess." Lin Wu said to himself, feeling a bit amazed.

Just as Lin Wu finished speaking, the notification sound of the system appeared.
"Oh, just in time, System did you obtain information about the Dao script?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: No, this data node contained information about the geography of this world and its history.
——
"Well, that's not bad. At least I get to read some stuff and get to know more about this place." Lin Wu spoke.
"System, show me all that you obtained." Lin Wu ordered.
A new window appeared in front of Lin Wu and he started reading. He realized that there were a lot of pages, but to his reading speed which was honed over two decades in his past life, this was nothing. It took him about six hours before he finished reading all the things.
After reading it all thought, Lin Wu felt confused, amazed and scared at the same time.
Lin Wu leered that the world he was in was called as the Ming Dao world. It seemed like they called the planets as worlds by default, but they could be used interchangeably. This was done as most commoners didn't even know what this planet looked like and they would usually not even leave the towns they were born in, not to mention go to another kingdom. It was only the cultivators, that too high leveled ones and great powers that knew about the truth of the world.
There were about three big continents that were of nearly the same size on the Ming Dao World. They were also located rather closely and were on one side of the planet, taking up nearly 30% of its entire surface. Still, there was the ocean between the contents which was in the shape of a 'Y'.
The main ocean of the planet was simply called as the great ocean, which led Lin Wu to think that the people that named it either didn't have a naming sense or that they wanted to keep things simple. He also learned the names of the three continents.
The continent that he was currently on was the one that was in the lower right of the 'Y' formation and was called as the Eastern Long continent. The one to the left was called as the Western Hu continent and the one at the top was called as the Northern Gui Continent.
"So a dragon, a tiger, and a turtle? Let me guess these are the guardian beasts, right? Or perhaps the ruling clans have these as their surnames," Lin Wu joked.
But as he read ahead, he realized that he was spot on. The continents were named after the guardian beasts whose descendants now rule over each of the Continents, thus taking the names as surnames.
"Huh, at least that will make it easier to remember." Lin Wu muttered.
He continued reading and found out more about the kingdom that he was in right now, the Ling kingdom. It was a medium sized kingdom and was pretty much average. There were some cultivation sects in the kingdom as well, but none of them were particularly strong.
Then Lin Wu tried to find more about this 'Ji clan' that Young Master Shirong belonged to. It didn't take him long to find out about it either, as it turned out they were the big wigs of this continent.
"Hahaha! Seems like I caught the biggest whale."
