Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Unexpected Gain

At this moment, Lin Jing…

had long since stopped paying attention to them.

Ever since the Demon Cultivator threw down the rootstalk of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit,

Lin Jing’s heart had been pounding forcefully, his eyes fixed on it.

This was the rootstalk of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…

the main ingredient for refining the Cultivation True Elixir.

If planted in the System Space, wouldn’t he have an endless supply of Blood Red Vermilion Fruits?

Wouldn’t refining the Cultivation True Elixir be within reach then?

This rootstalk, although perhaps not so valuable in the eyes of others,

was much more precious than the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit itself in Lin Jing’s view.

However…

With so many Golden Core Cultivators around at the moment, he simply couldn’t risk leaving the System Space.

Though Lin Jing yearned to possess the rootstalk of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit right away,

he had not lost his mind.

All the Golden Core Cultivators were currently entangled with the Demon Cultivator, too preoccupied to spare any attention elsewhere.

And the Demon Cultivator showed no regard for the rootstalk of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.

That was his chance.

What he needed to do now was wait for a moment when those people weren’t paying attention so he could emerge from the System Space and take away the rootstalk of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.

At this moment…

After using the Blood Escape Technique, Liu Yiyuan’s father had managed to gain some distance, but the technique was not long-lasting.

Before long, his speed had slowed down.

Fortunately for him, he was now not far from several Golden Core Cultivators.

Seeing the Demon Cultivator getting closer,

Liu Yiyuan’s father shouted out,

“Patriarch, I have the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit in my hand, save me…”

Wu Cai Immortal quickly rushed forward while calling out to the others:

“Fellow seniors, won’t you lend a hand?”

The other Golden Core Cultivators, upon hearing this, also hurriedly moved towards Liu Yiyuan’s father, trying to intercept the Demon Cultivator.

However, the Demon Cultivator was incredibly fierce and, confronted by the Golden Core Cultivators trying to stop him, he didn’t hesitate and swung his blade straight down.

The light from the blade instantly split the crowd, and the Demon Cultivator passed through it, continuing the chase after Liu Yiyuan’s father.

In a dire situation, Liu Yiyuan’s father took out a Teleportation Talisman and crushed it.

This time his teleportation landed him not far from Wu Cai Immortal, which could be considered extremely lucky.

After all, although the Teleportation Talisman could transport a person away, the destination was random.

Just like when Lin Jing used a Teleportation Talisman before…

he ended up right under the feet of the Flame Poison Centipede, getting stepped on dozens of times.

That was some kind of bad luck…

“Your cultivation is too low…”

“Quick, hand over the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit to me, and I’ll lead him away,”

Wu Cai Immortal urged.

Liu Yiyuan’s father didn’t dare to delay, and quickly took out the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, handing it over to Wu Cai Immortal.

The Demon Cultivator naturally witnessed this scene.

“Roar…”

With reddened eyes, he let out a furious roar.

“Steal my Life-defying Fruit, I will kill you…”

“Kill…”

However, just as he was about to charge over, he was intercepted by others.

“Worthless ants, out of my way…”

Following that, he swung his blade in a sweeping arc, aiming at everyone around.

People quickly retreated to evade the sharp edge.

With that delay, the Wu Cai Immortal had already flown far away with the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.

And the Demon Cultivator hastily chased after him.

Seeing the Demon Cultivator following the Wu Cai Immortal, the remaining few also hurriedly followed suit.

After that, they got farther and farther away, leaving the area.

And Lin Jing just watched them leave until they vanished from sight.

At that moment, Lin Jing’s mind stirred, and he directly called out to the system.

“System, exit System Space.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Jing appeared directly in the dense forest.

Lin Jing hurried forward, passing through the shrubbery, to a patch of weeds ahead.

Lin Jing took two steps forward, brushed aside the weeds, and there lay the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, bereft of fruit, quietly nestled behind the weeds.

Lin Jing had been watching this rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit for quite a while; its location where it had fallen was crystal clear to him.

Then, Lin Jing reached out, picked up the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.

Seeing some black dirt still clinging onto the rootstock, Lin Jing shook it off, removing all the black dirt,

and then he precious stored it away.

Having put it aside, Lin Jing noted that those Golden Core Cultivators had gone after the Demon Cultivator, and he guessed they would not be back any time soon.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Jing took out the Flawless Sword, and directly took off flying on the sword.

This place was simply too dangerous; if they returned and saw him, Lin Jing might really not be able to escape.

Subsequently…

He no longer cared about the Demonic Beasts in the forest and took flight on the sword, then extended his Divine Sense, constantly vigilant of everything around him, and flew in the direction of Fang Market.

Perhaps the commotion from the recent battle had scared off most of the Demonic Beasts,

Lin Jing found his journey quite smooth, without running into any mishaps.

And just like that, he safely returned to Fang Market.

Back at his small courtyard, Lin Jing couldn’t wait to enter the System Space first thing.

Then, he took out the Cleansing Spirit Flower and the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit from his Storage Bag.

This trip had garnered Lin Jing two Spirit Plants suitable for concocting the Cultivation True Elixir, and he had fortuitously managed to get his hands on the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, the hardest to acquire among them.

It had to be said, his luck on this venture was quite good.

“Good thing I came out this time, otherwise I would’ve missed this rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, and it would have been even harder to obtain,” said Lin Jing, talking to himself while looking at the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit in his hand.

However…

What puzzled Lin Jing was why the Golden Core Immortals from Fang Market had ended up fighting with the Demon Cultivator — weren’t they supposed to be exploring the Demon Race Secret Realm?

This left Lin Jing befuddled.

“Could it be that the Demon Cultivator is a native living within the Secret Realm?” Lin Jing couldn’t help but wonder.

If the Demon Cultivator really was a native of the Secret Realm,

such a powerful native wouldn’t be the only one; if so, the expedition into the Secret Realm was likely to fail…

Even more, if they could come and go as they pleased, they might even bring disaster to Fang Market.

Just considering it — only one native appeared from the Demon Race Secret Realm, and it took a collective effort of the Golden Core Immortals from the market to stand against him.

Moreover, this native Demon Cultivator was a mad cultivator with deranged nerves.

If another Demon Cultivator of such caliber were to emerge from the Secret Realm,

the Golden Core Immortals in the market would likely flee in disarray.

Nonetheless, from what Lin Jing had observed, despite seeming invincible, the Demon Cultivator would ultimately be killed by the group of Golden Core Immortals from Fang Market.

Because he had already gone mad.

Lin Jing could tell that the Golden Core Immortals from the market were constantly depleting his Spiritual Power, intending to grind him down to death.

Otherwise, they would have definitely been able to cripple the Demon Cultivator with their full strength.

In fact…

Seeing how the Zhang Family Patriarch had chopped off the arm of the Demon Cultivator made it quite clear.

These old fellows, having lived for several hundred years each, must surely all have similar trump cards.

Perhaps they were cautious about harming the Nirvana Flower on the Demon Cultivator, or maybe due to other considerations…

They simply chose not to use them.
