Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Black Market Token

Translator: 549690339

After returning, Lin Jing took out the storage bag belonging to the man in black and probed into it with his divine sense.

Inside, there weren’t many items: only a few dozen spirit stones, two common cultivation techniques, several low-level talismans, and the black market token.

The two cultivation techniques were of the sort found everywhere, one being the Qingmu Skill and the other the Sword Control Technique, which could be bought at the first floor of Yuebaolou for just a few dozen spirit stones, so they were not considered valuable.

Lin Jing naturally had no interest in flipping through them.

However, the black market token did pique his interest.

Lin Jing took the token out of the storage bag and started to examine it carefully.

The token was black all over, made from an unknown material that resembled metal—you could feel its cold touch, yet it was very light.

Considering the behavior of the man in black earlier, this token was most likely genuine.

Lin Jing examined the token in his hands, filled with questions.

“With this token, one can enter the black market? But where is the entrance to the black market?”

Just a token in hand, he couldn’t figure it out no matter how much he investigated, and before long, Lin Jing put the token away.

He then recalled the battle that had taken place that day.

It must be said that the Foundation Establishment Stage Five Thunder Talisman is formidable. Beneath the enveloping lightning, the man in black had no chance to escape before he was dead.

“It seems I should buy a few more to have on hand for the future,” Lin Jing thought to himself.

“Enter the System Space.”

After putting away the storage bag of the man in black, Lin Jing entered the System Space once more.

Having harvested the Spirit Rice and the Seven-Star Grass a few days ago, he

had yet to start the new planting.

Just today, he had bought some seeds.

These seeds were precisely the Spirit Plants required for concocting the Energy Gathering Pills.

With the constant upheaval caused by Demonic Beasts, the prices of elixir materials in the Fang Market were getting more and more expensive. In this large environment, Lin Jing decided to become self-sufficient.

Having his own fields, he naturally felt more secure.

As for the spiritual energy needed to cultivate these Spirit Plants, that was even less of a concern; the ample spiritual energy in the System Space was enough to nourish them.

After a busy night, Lin Jing was thoroughly exhausted.

However, even so, half of the Spirit Field within the System Space was still not planted.

Another day should be enough to finish it.

During the day, Ning Yue came over again with Luo Luo.

As the two entered, Lin Jing quickly took the ingredients and headed to the kitchen.

Ning Yue followed Lin Jing into the kitchen.

“Lin Daoyou, there was a fight last night in Green Smoke Alley; have you heard about it?” Ning Yue asked.

“Where is Green Smoke Alley?”

Lin Jing thought for a moment; he had never heard of this alley.

“I don’t mean to conceal anything from Ning Daoyou, but I have just woken up and have not heard any news.”

Ning Yue quickly explained:

“Green Smoke Alley is some distance away from here and is also close to the inner part of the Fang Market.”

“Last night, there was a fight in the alley, where a Late Stage Qi Refining cultivator was struck dead with a thunder technique, seemingly at the hands of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.”

Hearing Ning Yue say this, Lin Jing instantly realized that this must be about the man in black he had killed last night being discovered.

It turned out that the scene of last night’s killing was in Green Smoke Alley.

At the time, Lin Jing had chosen the location at random without much thought.

“Did the Fang Market get involved? What did they say?” Lin Jing hurriedly asked Ning Yue, wanting to know the attitude of the Fang Market.

Ning Yue replied:

“The Fang Market is already overwhelmed with dealing with Demonic Beasts, they can’t manage these matters. As long as the fights don’t occur within the Fang Market itself, they always turn a blind eye to the outside conflicts.”

“The Fang Market has simply said it was a case of murder and robbery, and then there was no further investigation. They just told us to be more careful in the future.”

Lin Jing thought to himself, “As expected, the Fang Market didn’t probe any deeper. ”

Before getting involved in this matter, Lin Jing had already anticipated the current situation, as the multitude of cultivators living on the periphery was not important to the Fang Market.

That was also why the man in black revealed his killing intent only after he left the inner parts of the Fang Market.

Because…

Inside the Fang Market, he would not dare to make a move.

After finishing, Ning Yue continued to caution Lin Jing:

“I know you sometimes go out at night, but it’s better to go out less these days.

The Fang Market is becoming more and more unsafe.

“You never know when you could be ambushed like that Late Stage Qi Refining cultivator. ”

After speaking, Ning Yue sighed.

“It’s not only unsafe here, but the outskirts near the border areas are even worse. It’s said that every few days, people are attacked by Demonic Beasts.”

“Who knows how long this surge of Demonic Beasts will last.”

“I just hope it doesn’t spread here.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing also fell silent for a while.

It seemed he would have to make some preparations in advance.

In the following days, Ning Yue continued to learn cooking with Lin Jing.

Over these few days, her culinary skills had improved greatly, to the extent that even Luo Luo was impressed.

After eating, with nothing else to do, Lin Jing looked at Luo Luo playing around in the room and suddenly spoke:

“Ning Daoyou.”

“Luo Luo isn’t young anymore, why haven’t you let her start cultivation yet?”

This question had been on Lin Jing’s mind for a long time. Other children Luo Luo’s age had already started cultivating.

Ning Yue looked at Luo Luo and then spoke with a somber tone:

“When Luo Luo was born, her father and I tested her.”

“Luo Luo… she has no Spiritual Root, and she can only be a mortal all her life.” “But aren’t both of you cultivators?” Lin Jing was full of confusion.

Offspring born to cultivators often had a high chance of possessing Spiritual Roots, and although the quality of the Spiritual Roots might not always be high, it was very rare for them to have none at all.

Moreover, Ning Yue had reached the Late Stage Qi Refining at her age, clearly indicating she had a very good Spiritual Root.

Lin Jing estimated that she must have at least a tri-attribute Spiritual Root.

It was said that Luo Luo’s father’s cultivation was not much different from Ning Yue’s, so his Spiritual Root could not be poor either.

For Luo Luo, being the product of their love yet not having a Spiritual Root, was an extraordinary occurrence.

“We also checked many times…” Ning Yue said softly.

“I see…”

Lin Jing then looked down at Luo Luo, who was playing, and did not say more.

It was such a pity that Luo Luo couldn’t cultivate. “Lin Daoyou.”

Ning Yue suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence.

Lin Jing looked up at Ning Yue.

“Ning Daoyou, what’s the matter?”

“In two days, it’s New Year’s Eve. In the past, we would gather with Wei Daoyou on this day. Would you like to join us?”

Before Lin Jing could respond, Luo Luo ran over, tugging at Lin Jing’s hand and coquettishly said:

“Uncle Lin, come join us-I‘

Lin Jing looked down at Luo Luo, her eyes full of anticipation.

Having been close to Lin Jing over this period of time, Luo Luo naturally did not want to be apart from him on such an important day.

“Alright.”

He answered, gently ruffling Luo Luo’s hair.

After speaking, Lin Jing’s thoughts drifted away…

“So it’s almost New Year’s already…”

“I wonder how my family in that other world is doing?”
