Chapter 94
Thirty years on the east side of the river, thirty years on the west side. Don't underestimate the poor youth.
Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye. During these thirty years, Lin Jiang never left his cave. He was always imrsed in closed-door cultivation. Finally, his cultivation reached the mid-stage of the Building Foundation realm.
"It's not easy. I'm 204 years old now, and I finally reached the mid-stage of the Building Foundation realm. It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be any enemies in the Building Foundation period for
to seek revenge on."
Lin Jiang opened his eyes. This lousy aptitude is truly frustrating. From the early stage to the mid-stage of the Building Foundation realm, it took Lin Jiang about forty years, and he consud much more resources than others.
"Brother, brother, eat, eat."
Lin Jiang just walked out of the door, when he heard a grumpy voice from Grandma, and then a big head bumped into him, almost knocking him down.
"How many tis do I have to say it? Don't call
brother, call
Dad. I'm your Dad."
Lin Jiang pushed the big head aside and stood up, holding a bird feather, shouting at Big Shadiao.
It was Big Shadiao who was speaking. Lin Jiang had prepared ten Demon Cores for them. When Big Shadiao had eaten the ninth one, it had slept for three years and woke up at the third stage.
A fourth-stage monster can transform, and a third-stage monster can speak. At first, Big Shadiao called Lin Jiang "Mom," almost making him faint. After being scolded by Lin Jiang a few tis, it started calling him "brother," but still refused to call him "Dad."
"Brother, brother..."
"Stop calling
brother. I gave you all the dried at. Do you want an Inedia Pill or not?"
Lin Jiang gave up. Although Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao could speak, their intelligence levels were still low. No matter how he tried to teach them, they just couldn't learn. He didn't want to bother anymore.
He took out an Inedia Pill and threw it to Big Shadiao, while Small Shadiao was still walking around the yard, acting like it didn't recognize anyone. After breaking through the third stage, it suddenly beca cold and distant, and he didn't know why.
"Little Shadiao, aren't you hungry?"
Lin Jiang asked, and Little Shadiao glanced at Lin Jiang and ignored him. Little Shadiao continued walking, not knowing what was going on in his little head.
Lin Jiang got very angry and rushed over to grab Little Shadiao's head. He gave him eighteen hard knocks on the head, making Little Shadiao wince in pain. Little Shadiao opened his beak, ready to peck at Lin Jiang. Just then, Big Shadiao appeared and pinned Little Shadiao to the ground for a while.
It's worth ntioning that Lin Jiang finally found out the gender of Big Shadiao and Little Shadiao. Big Shadiao is a sister, and Little Shadiao is a brother.
"It's only natural for older sister to hit younger brother. He deserves it!"
Lin Jiang watched as Little Shadiao was being beaten up by himself. He couldn't help but laugh. Big Shadiao had always been bullying Little Shadiao since they were young.
After they played for a while, Lin Jiang put them away. Lin Jiang needed to go out because the True Spirit Pill and Soul Nourishing Pill were all used up. He needed to buy more and get Big Shadiao and Little Shadiao a bigger Spirit Beast Bag. Now they were bigger than Lin Jiang, and the bag was too crowded.
Actually, they could use magic to beco smaller, but they didn't listen. They didn't want to beco smaller, so Lin Jiang just let them be.
At the barrier of the formation, Lin Jiang saw dozens of Sound Passing Talismans floating in the air. There were also dozens of exhausted Sound Passing Talismans on the ground. These years, Lin Jiang had always known that soone was sending him Sound Passing Talismans, but he never paid any attention to them.
(Translated by Gravity Tales ??)
He casually grabbed a few to look at, most of which were sent by Taoist Yusong from Eagle Ridge. The tone from the Sound Passing Talisman showed that Yusong was becoming more and more impatient.
"I hope I don't bother you, and you don't bother
either."
Lin Jiang threw away all the Sound Passing Talismans, not wanting to pay attention to these people. He always kept a distance from trouble. The water here was too deep. If it weren't for his attachnt to those spiritual dicines, Lin Jiang would have already run away.
After leaving the cave, Lin Jiang flew directly to Yunzhong City to trade at the comrce hall. He had dealt with most of the shady things in his possession. Now, the things he had were the spiritual dicines produced in the cave and the spiritual talismans he drew in his spare ti.
In these thirty years, Lin Jiang's skill in drawing talismans hadn't improved much. It was similar to before, just a bit more familiar with the runes, but there were no major breakthroughs.
"Taoist friend, this is your spirit stone."
One hour later, Lin Jiang left with thirty thousand spirit stones. Only five thousand were from selling talismans, the main profit ca from the spiritual dicines. With this cave from Sun Man, Lin Jiang had already earned fifty to sixty thousand spirit stones. Finally, it wasn't a loss.
"I haven't tasted at in thirty years. Ah, I haven't had a heart-to-heart talk with the little fairy in thirty years. It's so lonely."
Lin Jiang, holding the spirit stones, imdiately had a surge of thoughts and desires. After thirty years of seclusion, even Big Shadiao looked handso and charming. He couldn't bear it.
·······
"I have been hard by alcohol and lust, and I am so weary. From this day on, I shall quit indulging in pleasure, no, I shall quit drinking."
After three ridiculous days at Baihua Tower, Lin Jiang deeply regrets his actions and makes up his mind to quit drinking. Strong liquor harms the body, after all.
Carrying a sense of sha, Lin Jiang leaves Yunzhong City and heads towards Yunzhong Mountain Range.
"Halt, stranger! This is the territory of Cangying Ridge."
As Lin Jiang is nearing ho, a loud shout is heard, followed by the appearance of about ten cultivators. The leader is in the early stage of Building Foundation, while the rest are in the Qi Refining Period.
Lin Jiang's mood instantly turns sour, and he coldly asks, "Who are you people? How dare you stop ?"
"Who is this taoist friend, and why have they co here?"
The person glances at Lin Jiang and arrogantly asks.
"Call Yusong out, you're not qualified to know who I am."
Lin Jiang got very angry, but then he suddenly rembered that he hadn't been outside for thirty years. It was normal for Yusong's subordinates not to recognize him. It seed that the intimidation from when he killed Zhou Yunyang had faded away. Not many people knew about it anymore.
"How dare you call our leader by na!"
"Our leader's na is not sothing you can call directly. Put down the storage bag and co over here to et your death."
"The cave ten miles ahead belongs to ."
"What do you an yours and mine? Put down the storage bag and you can leave. Our people will arrive soon, and you'll be dood then."
Facing the continuous insults from the cultivators, Lin Jiang felt very frustrated. What was wrong with these little Kalami cats? Couldn't they see that he was at the mid-level of Building foundation? Who gave them the courage to speak like this? Was it Leung Jingru?
Since the other party was being impolite, Lin Jiang decided to return the favor. He summoned his flying sword and aid directly at the independent cultivator at the early stage of Building foundation.
"How dare you attack! Form a formation, attack!"
"Plop"
The man had barely finished speaking, when his flying sword was cut off by Lin Jiang, and then the sword ruthlessly sliced through his neck.
"Martial Uncle"
"Martial Uncle"
A group of lower level cultivators were terrified, but Lin Jiang was rciless. One by one, he killed them all, controlling his flying sword to continue cutting down those Qi Refining Period cultivators.
"Run quickly"
"Help !"
Several Qi Refining Period cultivators scattered in panic, but Lin Jiang killed two of them and captured another.
"Senior, spare , spare !"
The frightened man begged for rcy, but Lin Jiang ignored him and took away the group's bag. He carried the captive and quickly left.
Just as they arrived at the cave, several cultivators approached. Soone shouted, "Lin, release the person imdiately, or else you'll regret it!"
"Tell them what just happened, but don't exaggerate. Tell the truth."
Lin Jiang gently tapped the captive with his flying sword. He didn't want to argue much, and the captive dared not refuse. He truthfully explained everything.
"Dear Taoist friend, even if we were wrong, it was just a clash with you. It's not a deadly offense. Your actions are just as ruthless as those of the evil cultivators."
"Is that so?"
Lin Jiang sneered. When did the rules of Yunzhong Mountain Range beco so gentle? In the past, stopping others in the middle of the road was a very dangerous move, often seen as an aggressive attack. The words they spoke were extrely arrogant, even more provocative than provocation itself.
"Isn't it true? Killing soone over a few words, dear Taoist friend, you are too domineering."
"Senior brother, there's no need to waste ti with him. Call soone over, break into this cave, and avenge our fellow disciple Chen by killing him."
"Go inform the chief of the village."
The leader of the Building Foundation Period shook his head, but didn't imdiately take action. Apparently, he knew about Lin Jiang's presence but pretended not to, and wanted to escalate the situation.
Lin Jiang remained calm and composed, watching them hesitate. He was curious to see how Yusong would handle the situation and whether things would turn hostile. Lin Jiang intended to turn Yusong into a pile of bones.
After about two hours, independent cultivators from Cangying Ridge started arriving. By the ti Yusong arrived, there were already over a hundred people from Cangying Ridge, including thirteen at the Building Foundation Period.
"Friend Lin, you have finally co out of seclusion."
"Friend Yusong, we have no conflicts of interest. Why did you send people to block my way ho? Is it because Yunzhong City belongs to the Yu surna now?"
Lin Jiang imdiately retaliated by throwing out a major accusation. If he dared to accept the challenge, the two major sects would make him pay dearly.
"Friend Lin, Yunzhong Mountain Range doesn't belong to anyone. Those people were rely following my orders to patrol the territory. If there's any misunderstanding, it should be clarified instead of resorting to violence. Your inclination towards killing is too strong."
"Are you saying that every ti I co ho, I have to be interrogated by you all?"
"The misunderstanding is resolved, so things won't be like this."
"So, what's your plan?"
"Taoist Friend Lin should give us an explanation for what happened in Cangying Ridge."
"Co on, tell us what you have to say."
"Taoist Friend Lin will leave Yunzhong Mountain Range and never co back. Let's drop this matter."
"Haha, when it all cos down to it, you're interested in my cave."
Lin Jiang laughed. There's nothing new under the sun. In this vast Yunzhong Mountain Range, soone is blocking his way ho. It doesn't take much to figure out what's going on. Now the fox's tail is showing.
"Taoist Friend Lin, are three lives worth less than your cave?"
"When did a cultivator's life beco so valuable?"
"How dare you be so arrogant with just a mid-stage Building foundation? Chief, give the order, destroy this cave and cut off his head."
"Chief, give the order."
Hearing Lin Jiang's words, a few late-stage Building foundation cultivators by Yusong's side beca furious. Yusong looked outside the cave and saw that the tree poles from before had rotted away and were no longer there.
"Attack!"
After thinking for a mont, Yusong finally made up his mind. He waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to attack.
