Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space - Chapter 257: Solving the Black Mist

Afterwards.

Lin Jing reached out and grabbed the gourd in his hand.

It was at this moment that an extremely resentful voice came through the gourd, directly into Lin Jing’s mind.

“Mystical powers of the fallen spirit, you insignificant ant actually possess such energy…”

“Even if you can use the fallen spirit’s energy to seal the gourd, what then? I will soon break free from this gourd, and when that time comes, I will make sure you suffer agonizingly until death.”

Lin Jing did not respond to the words of the black mist inside the gourd, as if he had not heard them at all, and directly threw it into his Storage Bag.

Nonetheless.

The black mist was extremely powerful, and despite being inside the Storage Bag, it still managed to send its words into Lin Jing’s mind, becoming a persistent nuisance.

Lin Jing, however, remained unconcerned.

He directly threw the white flame in his hands toward Liu Yiyuan’s corpse.

The moment Liu Yiyuan’s corpse came into contact with the flame, it began to burn fiercely.

In less than half an hour.

Under the blaze of that flame, Liu Yiyuan was reduced entirely to ash.

It was at that instant that a gust of wind blew…

The ash scattered with the wind, disappearing without a trace.

And here.

All that was left were the traces of the battle that had occurred between the two men.

Afterwards.

Lin Jing quickly cleared any signs he had left behind.

He also carefully collected the fragments resulting from his Self-Destructing Flying Sword.

He did so in fear of the Wu Cai Immortal being able to track him down through these tiny clues.

Finally.

When there was nothing left to overlook, Lin Jing made his hasty departure.

During this period.

The black mist inside the gourd kept on clamoring incessantly.

Both threatening and intimidating Lin Jing.

It even boasted that with Lin Jing’s level of cultivation, he couldn’t possibly affect it.

In response to this.

Lin Jing merely gave a cold smile.

He clearly remembered that within the System Space, no living being other than himself was allowed entry.

If any other being entered, they would be directly annihilated.

So if he were to bring this gourd into the System Space, the fate of that black mist…

With this thought, Lin Jing was no longer worried.

After dealing with all this, Lin Jing began to rapidly flee the place.

The area was far too close to where Liu Yiyuan had died, making it unsuitable to enter the System Space directly.

Thus, Lin Jing needed to first distance himself from the area.

According to Lin Jing’s plan.

He would first move away from the area, and then hide in the System Space.

After entering the System Space, he would figure out a way to resolve the Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse.

Lin Jing didn’t believe.

That if he hid in the System Space, the Wu Cai Immortal could still trace him.

……

Subsequently.

Lin Jing discerned the directions and then made his way into the forest of dead trees ahead of the Stone Forest.

The forest of dead trees was desolate, as far as the eye could see, all was withered branches and fallen leaves, even the ground was covered with a thick layer.

Furthermore.

The forest was eerily silent, devoid of any human figures, and not even birds or beasts could be found.

Seeing the fallen leaves on the ground made Lin Jing frown, then he summoned the Flawless Sword and stepped on it.

Then.

He flew low through the forest of dead trees.

As he continued to fly through the forest, Lin Jing felt the suppression on his Divine Sense gradually easing.

After flying some more distance.

At that moment.

Lin Jing sensed his Divine Sense had returned to normal.

Additionally.

The signs of birds and beasts began to appear nearby, and it was no longer as desolate as before.

Looking ahead, Lin Jing could see a hint of green in the distance.

“It seems I have left that particular area,” Lin Jing thought to himself.

Then, he put away his Flawless Sword.

And began to move on foot.

……

Along the way.

The black mist kept on ranting without pause.

Yet Lin Jing paid no heed to it.

Until just recently, when he saw that Lin Jing remained indifferent, he began to tempt Lin Jing.

“You can’t escape from the Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse, no matter where you are, the caster will find you, unless you are no longer in this world.”

“Or if you survive these ten days, as the name implies, the curse will dissipate after ten days.”

“As long as you help me sacrifice cultivators and become my servant, I will spare you.”

“And additionally…”

“I will even help you lift the Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse and impart to you peerless cultivation techniques.”

“As long as you serve me well, unparalleled cultivation techniques, enchanting beauties, and treasures of heaven and earth, whatever you desire, I can grant you.”

The words of the black fog had just given Lin Jing a shock.

The Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse would dissolve on its own after just ten days.

“Are you sure the Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse will dissolve on its own after ten days?”

Lin Jing asked the black fog through his Divine Sense.

This was his first time speaking to the black fog.

The black fog fell silent for a moment, then haughtily declared:

“Of course.”

“The Ten Day Soul Chasing Curse is merely a minor spell.”

“As long as you do as I say and let me out, I’ll be able to eradicate it with a flick of my finger.”

“Or, without even eradicating it…”

“I could even help you wipe out the Golden Core Cultivator who cast the spell.”

“How about that?”

Lin Jing knew all too well what game the black fog was playing.

At this moment, Lin Jing once again ignored it.

Seeing Lin Jing’s lack of response, the black fog immediately became furious with embarrassment.

“Otherwise…”

“After I get out, the first thing I’ll do is extract your soul and refine your marrow, leaving you to perish, soul destroyed.”

“After all, you’re powerless against me.”

Suddenly, Lin Jing stopped and replied:

“That may not be the case…”

By then, Lin Jing had already reached the depths of the dense forest.

And.

This place was conveniently far enough away from where Liu Yiyuan had been slain.

Hearing Lin Jing’s words, the black fog burst out laughing.

“Hahaha…”

“You think you can kill me? That’s a joke…”

“Do you know who I am? Do you know how powerful I once was?”

“If it weren’t for this accursed gourd, would I be wasting words with you?”

After speaking, the black fog snorted coldly again:

“Hmph!”

“Even if it is the energy of a fallen spirit, it won’t be long before I force it out.”

“Then, your end will come.”

Lin Jing couldn’t care less about responding to the black fog’s words.

Instead, he silently commanded in his mind:

“Enter System Space.”

Afterward.

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

Upon entering the System Space, the black fog was first taken aback, then became ecstatic.

“This…”

“Is a small world…”

“Hahaha…”

“I didn’t expect you, a mere ant, to possess a small world.”

“Once I recover, I’ll take possession of you after I recover, and this small world will be mine…”

“Mine, all mine…”

“Hahahahaha……”

The black fog’s laughter was extremely frenzied.

Immediately following.

Lin Jing took out the gourd from his Storage Bag.

Just then.

Suddenly.

A series of System alarms sounded:

“Warning!”

“A special Spiritual Body has entered the System Space, commence annihilation immediately!”

However, before it could revel for too long, it heard the System’s warning.

The pleased black fog suddenly paused.

“System Space?”

“What is this thing?”

Then it felt an extreme sense of terror engulfing it.

“What…”

“What is this…”

“No…impossible…”

“Ah…”

Following a final scream, everything quieted down.

After the scream had ceased, Lin Jing looked at the gourd.

He noticed the gourd slowly changing, its black patterns were disappearing gradually.

Until at last.

The entire gourd became a lush green color, lacking the sinister and terrifying aura of before.

Instead, it exuded a sense of tranquility and peace.

Lin Jing held the gourd in his hand, carefully examining it.

What exactly this gourd was, the black fog never mentioned.

However.

To be on the safe side.

Lin Jing decided to keep it inside the System Space for the time being and not to disturb it.
