“You see, most of these people are here to find the roots and rhizomes of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…”
Li Tangyu pointed to the cultivators not far away who were clearing up the stones and wood chips on the ground.
“Of course, there are also some others who, I bet, are just like Brother Lin, knowing nothing and just joining in the excitement…”
Lin Jing looked at Li Tangyu with concern and asked,
“Your grandfather is injured, how is he? Is the injury severe?”
Li Tangyu replied,
“Thanks for your concern, Brother Lin…”
“My grandfather is okay, his injuries aren’t that serious…”
“But it seems like others aren’t so optimistic…”
“Especially Elder Zhang Yuan’s ancestor from his family and that uncle of his who had just advanced to Golden Core recently.”
“I heard that both of them are gravely injured…”
“Also because of this incident, when we went to find Zhang Yuan, the Zhang Family was so busy that he wasn’t in the mood to join us in treasure hunting, which is why we came here…”
“I see, I hope everything is fine with their family…” Lin Jing sighed.
“Yes, if there weren’t Golden Core Immortals to support, I’m afraid that the entire Zhang Family would fall into danger…” Li Tangyu sighed as well.
Then, as if suddenly remembering something, Lin Jing spoke up and looked at Li Tangyu,
“By the way, Brother Li…”
“I also heard from others that the Demonic Beasts came from the Demon Race Secret Realm, is that so?”
Previously, Lin Jing had only speculated and wasn’t certain whether the Demonic Beasts had indeed come from the Demon Race Secret Realm, and now was a good time to ask Li Tangyu.
After all, Li Tangyu’s grandfather was personally involved.
Li Tangyu then said,
“Indeed, that Demon Cultivator was discovered while exploring the Demon Race Secret Realm.”
“However…”
“My grandfather didn’t tell me the specifics.”
“So, I don’t know much either…”
“I see…” Lin Jing nodded.
“Since that Demon Race Secret Realm is so dangerous, have your grandfather and the other Golden Core Immortals sealed it up again?”
Li Tangyu nodded and said,
“Yes…”
“To prevent similar incidents from happening again, my grandfather and the others have resealed the entrance.”
“And…”
“They have already notified the Qingyuan Sword Sect and plan to hand over the remaining matters to them to handle.”
Having said that, Li Tangyu then let out a sigh,
“Alas…”
“Let’s not talk about those matters anymore.”
“They’re not something we can get involved in…”
“We should still focus on finding the roots and rhizomes of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.”
“Although the value of the rhizome is not as high as the complete Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, as a third-tier Spirit Plant, it is not low in value.”
“If the conditions are suitable and it can be cultivated, then the value of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit rhizome could be much higher than the fruit itself.”
Huang Qingling and Li Qingqing also nodded in agreement,
“Exactly…”
“It’s more important to look for the rhizome of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…”
Afterwards…
The group also began to dig through the soil.
During this time, Lin Jing was also earnestly searching for those patches of black soil, but perhaps his luck had run out, for he could not find any more…
Until the sunset slanted west and it was nearing evening, when most of the searching cultivators had left, the group discussed it and then left on their flying swords.
Even as they were leaving, Li Qingqing was still complaining.
“I wonder which lucky sod picked up the rhizome of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.”
Seeing his sister unhappy, Li Tangyu quickly spoke up to comfort her,
“That Blood Red Vermilion Fruit rhizome might have been destroyed by the aftereffects of the battle too…”
“What comes to me is my fortune; what eludes me is my fate.”
“Don’t think too much about it…”
“Alright…” Li Qingqing pouted.
Meanwhile, Lin Jing, who had already obtained the root and stem of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, was bowing his head, remaining silent.
“Hmm.”
“No one can be told about this…”
After returning to the small courtyard.
Anxious to proceed, Lin Jing immediately took the bit of black soil from the Secret Realm into the System Space.
Arriving at the Spirit Field, Lin Jing dug a hole in the soil covering the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit and then placed the small pellet of black soil into it, burying it alongside the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.
No sooner had the black soil been added, the system notification reached Lin Jing’s ears.
“System notification: Foreign special Secret Realm soil components detected in the Spirit Field; analysis in progress…” (Note: If the analysis is successful, the simulation of that Secret Realm environment can be activated.)
Hearing the system notification, Lin Jing instantly felt a surge of excitement.
“Could it be that this is going to work?”
However, before Lin Jing could revel in his excitement for too long, the system notification sounded again:
“System notification: The soil sample is too small; analysis failed, unable to activate the Secret Realm environment simulation.”
This system notification instantly calmed Lin Jing’s initially restless heart.
For a long moment…
Lin Jing looked at the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree he had planted in the Spirit Field not long ago and helplessly shook his head.
Then, adjusting his mood, Lin Jing left the Spirit Field.
“It seems…”
“If I want it to grow in the future, I’ll have to personally visit the Secret Realm and gather more soil samples.”
“For now, I should focus on alchemy…” Lin Jing thought to himself.
Time flies inexorably, passing quickly when we least expect it.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
A lot had happened during these three months.
Firstly, there was the aftermath of the Demon Race Secret Realm.
After that Demon Cultivator was killed, the Golden Core Cultivators in Fang Market had all paid a hefty price.
Because Elder Master Li had the lightest injuries.
So…
Aside from Elder Master Li, the others were all healing their wounds and could hardly be seen in Fang Market anymore.
Even the new steward of Yuebaolou, Zheng, was no exception.
After the battle that day, he delegated his responsibilities to Steward Cheng and then went into seclusion to heal his injuries.
He has not emerged since.
Additionally, the Zhang Family was struck by a piece of tragic news that spread.
That was the untimely demise of the Zhang Family’s newly promoted Golden Core, the uncle of Zhang Yuan, due to severe injuries he had suffered.
Recently, Lin Jing and Huang Qingling, representing Elder Bai, accompanied Li Tangyu to visit the Zhang Family to offer condolences and to see how Zhang Yuan was doing…
However, Zhang Yuan seemed to be in noticeably poor spirits during this time, though thankfully, he appeared to be without serious issues.
The group could only offer some words of comfort before they departed.
Ever since Fang Market informed Qingyuan Sword Sect about the Demon Race Secret Realm,
Qingyuan Sword Sect immediately sent people to investigate the realm.
After the investigation, Qingyuan Sword Sect went even further by stationing people at the entrance of the Secret Realm, forbidding anyone from approaching…
This vigil by Qingyuan Sword Sect lasted three months…
But soon, there was an unexpected development in this matter.
In the beginning, no one found it unusual.
But as more time passed, and Qingyuan Sword Sect continued to guard the entrance to the Demon Race Secret Realm without withdrawing,
And with no news coming from the Secret Realm during that time,
People gradually began to grow suspicious…
