Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 193: Chapter 193: The Nether Realm of the Southern Continent

Afterwards, the group entered the house and took their seats. With a wave of his hand, Lin Jing dispelled the spiritual power that had been keeping the food warm, and instantly pleasant aromas filled the air…

Huang Qingling couldn’t wait to ask Elder Yu:

“Old Man Yu, where’s the gift you said you were going to give me?”

Elder Yu laughed heartily:

“Haha…”

“Don’t worry, you won’t miss out…”

As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his Storage Bag and handed it to Huang Qingling.

“Here, your gift…”

“A jade pendant…”

As Huang Qingling said this, she reached out and accepted it.

After taking the jade pendant, she held it, turning it over to examine it closely.

A moment later, Huang Qingling looked up and questioned Elder Yu:

“What function does this jade pendant have…”

At that moment, Elder Bai spoke up.

“Defensive function…”

Huang Qingling’s little face wrinkled as she said:

“Ah…”

“Another jade pendant with a defensive function…”

“I already have several jade pendants with defensive functions on me; I always feel they’re not as good as Magical Treasures with offensive abilities…”

Huang Qingling complained.

“You really don’t know how lucky you are,” Elder Bai said, shaking his head helplessly.

“You should know that for others, obtaining a Defensive Magical Treasure is as difficult as ascending to the heavens…”

“But I feel, always being on the defensive is kind of boring; facing an enemy, it’s better to take the initiative to attack…” Huang Qingling expressed her own thoughts.

Upon hearing Huang Qingling’s words, Lin Jing suddenly turned his head, looking at her incredulously.

All this time…

Lin Jing had never expected that Huang Qingling would also be a warmonger.

Meanwhile, Elder Bai and Elder Yu were not surprised at all, as if they had known this all along.

Elder Yu then spoke up directly:

“This Magical Treasure is different; it can also be considered an offensive Magical Treasure.”

Interest rekindled, Huang Qingling leaned forward eagerly and hurriedly asked:

“How is it different? Come on, tell me…”

“This jade pendant not only can defend, but it can also counter-attack those who sneak attack you…” Elder Yu explained.

“Counter-attack…”

“Can’t it attack proactively?”

Huang Qingling asked skeptically.

“No…”

Elder Yu shook his head.

“Then that’s boring…”

Huang Qingling sounded clearly disappointed.

“Keep it! This was specially selected for you by Elder Yu…”

“You might need it in a while…” Elder Bai interjected.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing looked up, puzzled, at Elder Bai.

“Huang Qingling might need it?”

“She’s always in Fang Market and rarely goes out; under normal circumstances, she wouldn’t need a defensive type Magical Treasure, would she?” Lin Jing was somewhat confused.

Even Huang Qingling was bemused at this moment, clearly unaware of why Elder Bai would say such a thing.

“I don’t go out for training; how would I need it?”

“Soon…”

Elder Bai spoke again:

“If there are no surprises, the Demon Race Secret Realm will open before long.”

“When that time comes, I would like you to go in and gain some experience.”

“Demon Race Secret Realm?”

“Old Man Bai, come on, tell us more…”

As soon as she heard about the Demon Race Secret Realm, Huang Qingling was clearly very interested.

Lin Jing felt the same…

Elder Bai, however, slightly furrowed his brows, as if he didn’t want to say too much.

“It seems that this matter…”

“Should be confidential at this stage, so Elder Bai seems hesitant,” Lin Jing thought to himself.

Afterward, Lin Jing picked up the wine jug from the table and poured a cup for each person…

This fine wine was not like the ingredients that were easy to store; there was also no need to worry about it spoiling.

Therefore, Lin Jing always carried it with him.

As Elder Yu caught the scent of the wine, he couldn’t wait to lift his cup and drank it down in one gulp.

After that, Elder Yu let out a contented sigh.

“As expected…”

“It’s this Qinghua Drunk that suits my taste the best.”

Having finished, Elder Yu then said to Elder Bai:

“Elder Bai, you should tell them…”

“These two youngsters know what’s at stake and won’t leak it out recklessly.”

Lin Jing and Huang Qingling both nodded repeatedly.

“Rest assured, Old Man Bai…”

“We won’t go around spreading rumors.”

Lin Jing then refilled Elder Yu’s wine cup.

After that, he put down the wine pot and looked towards Elder Bai.

Seeing that both of them were interested in this matter.

Elder Bai also began to speak:

“The results of this negotiation are expected to come out soon…”

“As far as I know, the Qingyuan Sword Sect has compromised and decided to open the entrance to the Demon Race Secret Realm, allowing other forces to enter as well?”

“Elder Bai, could it really be like the rumors outside say, that there are many treasures inside that Secret Realm?”

Lin Jing asked curiously.

Elder Bai nodded and said:

“There are some, but it’s not as exaggerated as the rumors suggest…”

“Indeed, there are various high-level Spirit Plants inside, but it’s also extremely dangerous.”

“Even with the strength of the Qingyuan Sword Sect, many have been injured inside…”

“In fact, one Golden Core Stage Elder even died in there…”

Huang Qingling suddenly exclaimed:

“Ah…”

“Is it really that dangerous inside?”

Elder Yu interjected from the side:

“Of course, secret realms are never absolutely safe.”

Huang Qingling pouted and said:

“Then, Old Man Bai, you still suggest I go in for trials…”

Elder Yu spoke again:

“After this negotiation, our Yiyun Pavilion will definitely send people in as well.”

“I was thinking of including you in the team to gain some experience.”

“But don’t worry, if you go in, you might be led by me or Elder Yu.”

“With us there, we won’t let anything happen to you…”

“Oh, if you are also going with us, then there’s no problem,” Huang Qingling seemed very happy.

Sometime later…

Elder Bai also picked up his wine cup and downed it in one gulp.

Seeing this, Lin Jing hurriedly refilled Elder Bai’s wine cup.

After finishing the cup of wine, Elder Bai continued to speak:

“There’s another matter…”

“What matter…?” Huang Qingling asked.

The two of them, like curious babies, looked at Elder Bai.

“After the negotiations are over, Nanshan Fang Market will expand…”

“After this expansion, it will no longer be Nanshan Fang Market, but Nanshan Immortal City.”

“Nanshan Immortal City…”

Lin Jing and Huang Qingling exclaimed in unison.

“Yes…”

Elder Bai nodded affirmatively.

“Is it because of the Demon Race Secret Realm?”

Lin Jing asked with doubt.

“Yes…” Elder Bai replied.

“A Demon Race Secret Realm can turn a Fang Market into an Immortal City…”

“That seems a bit too exaggerated…”

Lin Jing was quite puzzled by this.

Considering the current population of Nanshan Fang Market was large.

But in Lin Jing’s opinion, after a while, when there’s no profit to be made, a good portion of the people gathered at the Fang Market would likely leave.

By that time, the entire Fang Market’s population would return to something similar to before.

If that’s the case.

Expanding Nanshan Fang Market into an Immortal City would seem quite inappropriate.

Elder Yu noticed Lin Jing’s confusion and began to explain:

“Lin lad…”

“You probably don’t know much about the Nanming Domain, do you?”

Hearing what Elder Yu said, Lin Jing nodded and replied:

“Indeed…”

“Aside from this Nanshan Fang Market, all I know are the nearest few Immortal Cities.”

“I’m completely ignorant about the other places in the Nanming Domain.”

“Me too…”

At this time, Huang Qingling also moved closer and spoke.

“Sigh…”

Elder Yu sighed with a hint of helplessness, then said:

“It seems I need to introduce you to the general context of the Nanming Domain first.”

“Please tell us, Elder Yu…”

Lin Jing then sat up straight and listened attentively.

Elder Yu nodded and continued:

“Do you know the other name for the Nanming Domain?”

“We don’t know…”

Lin Jing and Huang Qingling both shook their heads as they looked towards Elder Yu.

Seeing them shake their heads, Elder Yu went straight to the point:

“South State Netherworld Domain!”

“It’s not the ‘ming’ of tomorrow, but the ‘ming’ of the netherworld…”
