Chapter 187 - Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Regretting So Much that Intestines Turned Green (2/2)
Lin Jing sighed in frustration. Just then, he suddenly thought of something and blurted out:
“No… ”
“I had a soil sample…”
“Damn it… ”
“I scattered it…”
Lin Jing remembered, when he first obtained the rootstock of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…
There was some black soil clinging to this rootstock.
That must have been the Demon Race Secret Realm soil sample he needed.
He had been annoyed by the dirt on it and had even cleaned it off on purpose.
Now that he thought about it, Lin Jing regretted it so much that his guts turned green.
At this moment, even if he wanted to find that soil, it would probably be hard to locate.
The exact location of that place was already a bit hazy in Lin Jing’s memory.
Moreover…
He had just returned, and he estimated that the battle over there was still going on, immensely dangerous.
Even if Lin Jing knew the location, he couldn’t go there now…
Afterward, Lin Jing pondered for a moment and then made a decision; he still planned to go and look for that soil.
But not right now…
At the very least, he had to wait until the battle there was over and it was no longer dangerous before he went to look.
Next, Lin Jing stayed in the System Space, didn’t leave, and started his alchemy, preparing to refine a few batches of Elixir Medicine first.
It wasn’t until the next day that Lin Jing went out, intending to visit Yuebaolou to see if he could hear any news about what happened yesterday.
Yuebaolou, being so large, had people coming and going every day; generally, any news would quickly spread there.
However, before he reached Yuebaolou, while walking on the street, Lin Jing heard some people quietly discussing the incident that happened yesterday ahead of him.
Lin Jing hurriedly quickened his pace, came a bit closer to the two people, and perked up his ears to listen intently.
“Brother Zhang, have you heard…”
“Yesterday, several Golden Core Immortals from the Fang Market fought a big battle with some outsiders…”
“It’s said that the opponent was a Golden Core Peak cultivator, quite formidable, and the Golden Core Immortals from the market sustained serious injuries.”
The man referred to as Brother Zhang responded:
“I’ve heard about it too, but the version I heard is different from yours…”
“Oh…?”
“What version did you hear, Brother Zhang? Feel free to share…”
After speaking, this person leaned in closer, cupping his ear.
“I heard that the one who fought with the Golden Core Immortals from the Fang Market wasn’t a Human Cultivator, but a Demon Cultivator…”
“Hiss… A Demon Cultivator…” The other man gasped in shock.
“When did such a powerful Demon Cultivator appear in the Night Mist Mountain Range?”
The cultivator surnamed Zhang shook his head and said:
“It’s said…”
“That Demon Cultivator didn’t come out of the Night Mist Mountain Range, but from the Secret Realm that caused the beast tide…”
The other man asked doubtfully, “Isn’t it said that the Secret Realm was sealed?”
“Wasn’t it the Qingyuan Sword Sect that sent people to seal it? How come there’s a Demon Cultivator coming out of it now?”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator spread his hands and said:
“I’m not sure about that…”
Then, the man spoke again to the cultivator surnamed Zhang:
“Brother Zhang…”
“Why don’t we go to the place where they fought and take a look?”
“That’s where the Golden Core battle took place, leaving behind traces…”
“I heard that the battlefield isn’t far from the Fang Market, and many people went there this morning.”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator nodded and said:
“Alright…”
“I was thinking the same thing…”
“Perhaps if we’re lucky, we might find some remaining treasures…” The man appeared somewhat excited.
“Don’t get your hopes up, even if there are any, being this late, it won’t be our turn…”
The Zhang surnamed cultivator was quite calm.
After speaking, the two men quickened their pace and headed forward.
