Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 160: 160



``` If he were to go out now, his own aura would definitely trigger a reaction from the Spirit Detection Worms. At that time, they could use the guidance of the Spirit Detection Worms to locate him. However, with The Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon in his possession, Lin Jing's aura could be freely changed, allowing him to evade the sensory detection of the Spirit Detection Worms. But... Even if Lin Jing were to change his appearance and aura now, rashly going out wasn't a good idea. It would be less troublesome to wait until the Pill Master surnamed Wang had left, then leaving afterward wouldn't be too late. Since Lin Jing wasn't in a hurry, he might as well do something productive like crafting Elixir Furnace Medicine when he had nothing urgent to attend. "System, exit Observation Mode." Thinking thus, Lin Jing immediately exited Observation Mode and went to the Alchemy Room to start his busying work. ...... After waiting for a while longer and seeing no activity in the alley, the Pill Master surnamed Wang left the alley with a furrowed brow. It was after the Pill Master surnamed Wang had left the alley, that not much later, Lin Jing also finished crafting a batch of Elixir Medicine. Then he re-entered Observation Mode to scout around and found that the Pill Master surnamed Wang indeed had already left. Only then did Lin Jing change his identity and aura again and left through another exit of the alley. While walking back, Lin Jing pondered non-stop. It was no longer possible to track this Pill Master surnamed Wang now, with the Spirit Detection Worms present, he could by no means bypass them. But without tracking him, he wouldn't know the intentions of the Pill Master surnamed Wang, and he couldn't just rashly follow him to some Fourth Grade Pill Master's abode. Most importantly, he really wanted that Washing Spirit Grass. Unless he could find a way to track him without causing the Spirit Detection Worms to raise an alarm. At that moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Lin Jing's mind as he muttered to himself with a smile forming on his lips, "How could I have forgotten about that?" Then... Lin Jing strode towards his own residence. Upon returning, Lin Jing didn't go back to his own small courtyard but headed for Huang Qingling's courtyard instead. What Lin Jing thought of was Little Sparrow. Little Sparrow was a Demonic Beast, and if it were to do the tracking, it naturally wouldn't alert the Spirit Detection Worms. And since Little Sparrow was small and extremely fast, it was very difficult to detect. What mattered the most was that it possessed a certain level of intelligence and was perfectly capable of handling the task of tracking. Next, Lin Jing knocked on the door. A moment later, Huang Qingling's voice came from inside: "Coming..." This voice, however, sounded somewhat dour and lacked her usual liveliness, seemingly unhappy. Then, the door opened... Lin Jing saw Huang Qingling, her complexion clearly off, looking as if she had just been sulking. Upon seeing Lin Jing standing at the door, her expression softened somewhat. "Lin Jing, it's you..." "How come you thought to come over today..." Huang Qingling asked, looking puzzled as she gazed at Lin Jing. "Well, I've just finished turning over the Elixir Medicine today and decided to take a break from alchemy for the day. I thought I'd come over and see how you were doing." "What's the matter with you? Who has upset you again?" Huang Qingling huffed: "Who else but that foolish bird?" "Little Sparrow?" "How has it bothered you again? Tell me about it..." Lin Jing was quite curious; Little Sparrow had become a classic example of trouble every three days under Huang Qingling's care. Huang Qingling spoke up, posing a question back to Lin Jing: "Did Little Sparrow come to you after that last incident, asking you to make it something to eat?" Lin Jing thought for a moment and then suddenly remembered that Little Sparrow hadn't come looking for him since the last time it was trained by Elder Bai. With that realization, Lin Jing spoke up: "Actually, no. Speaking of which, Little Sparrow hasn't come at all since Elder Bai trained it that last time." ``` "Could it be that Little Sparrow has become picky? Doesn't like eating the food I make anymore?" Lin Jing looked at Huang Qingling, puzzled. "Indeed, its palate has become picky; it doesn't like eating regular food anymore..." As Huang Qingling spoke, she seemed to harbor a deep resentment. "Not eating food?" Lin Jing was very curious and quickly asked Huang Qingling, "Then what does it eat now?" "It," Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing with a hint of mischief on her lips and said, "Now it eats Elixir Medicine, and specifically those that increase cultivation. It takes any that come its way..." "Eating Elixir Medicine..." Lin Jing was truly shocked. He had never heard of a Demonic Beast eating Elixir Medicine before. "I just discovered it these past couple of days..." Huang Qingling's teeth gritted audibly as she angrily said, "It's infuriating. I was reprimanding it just now." Lin Jing, not understanding, said, "If Little Sparrow can digest Elixir Medicine, then the pills must certainly be beneficial to it. Feeding it a pill or two occasionally shouldn't be a problem, right..." "Why reprimand it then?" "Could it be that it committed theft again?" Lin Jing knew that a pill or two meant nothing to Huang Qingling, and she wouldn't reprimand Little Sparrow over such a trivial matter. Unless Little Sparrow had done something unacceptable, like stealing... "Stealing..." "If it were really just stealing, that'd be easier to handle..." Huang Qingling said with a cold laugh. "It's that serious?" Lin Jing exclaimed in shock. "Forget it, let me tell you..." "Ever since Elder Yu's Tribulation, Little Sparrow has been running outside every day, but it didn't cause any trouble, so I let it be and didn't interfere." "Until later on, I don't know what Little Sparrow did, but it got a lot smarter..." "Out of curiosity, I once marked it and followed it outside. I found out that it has always been running into the Night Mist Mountain Range..." "Since that was where it grew up, inside the Night Mist Mountain Range, with Little Sparrow's abilities, it couldn't possibly be at a disadvantage, so I was reassured and didn't continue to track it..." "From then on, I haven't meddled in its affairs..." "Even sometimes, it would bring back some Spirit Grass from inside the Night Mist Mountain Range..." "At first, I was quite pleased, thinking it had found them itself..." "But just yesterday, it actually brought back Elixir Medicine, and Magic Artifacts as well..." "Elixir Medicine, and Magic Artifacts..." Lin Jing smacked his lips. "Has Little Sparrow relapsed into old habits?" "More than that..." Huang Qingling said through clenched teeth: "I told you, if it were just stealing, that would be one thing..." "This silly bird has upgraded itself, not just stealing anymore; it has turned into a bandit..." "Turned into... a bandit?" Lin Jing was dumbfounded, unable to imagine Little Sparrow turning into a bandit, and he couldn't figure out how it would rob others. Could it be waiting for the right moment to seize the Storage Bag and flee? "Fellow Qing Ling, how does Little Sparrow act as a bandit? I'm quite curious. Could it actually open a Storage Bag?" "Hmph..." "Curious, are you? Wait until you see it, and you'll know..." Huang Qingling said with a cold laugh. "Come on, let me introduce you to this great thief..." After that, Huang Qingling led Lin Jing toward the courtyard.
