Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 302: Chapter 4: Strange Fish [Thanks for the reward, Cola Chicken Wings]

Alarm bells went off in Lin Jing’s mind, and he immediately recited in his heart:

“Enter the System Space.”

Then, Lin Jing saw a gigantic fish tail rise from the sea, lifting a huge surge of waves as if to blot out the sky and sun, and it crashed down towards Lin Jing’s direction.

At this moment, Lin Jing seemed to be bound by something, utterly unable to move.

Just as the fish tail was about to fall, Lin Jing vanished from the spot…

……

Inside the System Space, Lin Jing patted his chest, gasping for air.

The scene just now was too dangerous.

Luckily, Lin Jing reacted in time, entering the System Space the instant he felt something was off.

After catching his breath, Lin Jing immediately said:

“Enter Observation Mode.”

He wanted to see what exactly had attacked him just now.

After entering Observation Mode, Lin Jing turned his perspective towards the sea surface.

Finally, he got a clear view of the ‘thing’ that had attacked him.

It was an exceptionally bizarre fish head, with eyes as big as millstones, shining brightly. The gaping mouth was so large that Lin Jing wouldn’t be surprised if it could swallow a palace in one gulp.

Its body was completely submerged underwater, only revealing its wall-like tail in the distance. Lin Jing conservatively estimated that this monstrous fish was at least a thousand zhang in length.

The attack on Lin Jing had come from that tail in the distant sea, which was slapping up waves.

The monstrous fish seemed to possess intelligence.

Lin Jing saw a hint of confusion in those large eyes of the fish.

After surveying the area and finding no trace of Lin Jing, the fish head dove back into the sea, disappearing from sight.

However, the huge whirlpool that appeared on the surface of the sea proved that the monstrous fish had not left.

Then, colossal waves surged up as the wall-like fish tail rose from the sea and slammed down fiercely, causing a monstrous wave.

The huge waves instantly scattered the entire beach, and even washed away a section of the stony beach not far ahead.

Only, when the giant waves approached the mystical stele, they seemed to be blocked by something, unable to advance even half an inch further.

It seemed that the stele was not so simple either.

It was at this time…

Lin Jing witnessed a truly horrifying sight.

What lay before him was no beach.

Underneath the sand lay a forest of stark white bones.

There were human bones, as well as those of various Demonic Beasts; countless pale white bones covered the entire beach.

This made it clear that Immortal Crossing Island was no place for the faint of heart.

After slapping the water once, the massive fish turned around again, attempting to locate Lin Jing.

However, it ultimately failed to find a trace of Lin Jing.

After a while, it flipped a huge wave and swam towards the open ocean.

Once the monstrous fish left, Lin Jing remained observing in Observation Mode.

This place was too dangerous; he had to be careful and cautious.

Afterward, Lin Jing pondered his strategy.

The sea held immense dangers and was no longer an option.

In the dense forest, there were innumerable Demonic Beasts; although not as terrifying as the sea creatures, it was hardly a walk in the park.

At the moment, it seemed that only the stone beach near the mystical stele was somewhat safer.

After much thought, Lin Jing made his decision.

He would stay next to the stele for some time, observe the situation, and then make a decision.

Half an hour after the monstrous fish left, Lin Jing emerged from the System Space.

Once out, Lin Jing didn’t linger.

He made his way to the stone beach next to the stele.

He didn’t approach the stele too closely but maintained a safe distance to prevent any unpleasant occurrences.

He needed to stay here for a while, to accumulate some time for entering the System Space, and then try to find another way out.

That was Lin Jing’s plan.

“`

After choosing a good spot, Lin Jing sat down cross-legged, took out the Jade Slip recording the Five Elements Divine Art from his Storage Bag, and began to cultivate…

……

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month and a half had passed.

Lin Jing’s guess was indeed correct.

The area near the stele was very safe.

In the time he had been there, not a single Demonic Beast had appeared.

The stretch of sand filled with white bones was once again buried by the yellow sand.

However, since that last time, Lin Jing hadn’t been near the beach again.

The strange fish hadn’t appeared on the beach either, though Lin Jing had seen it several times in the distant deep sea.

Although it was quite far away, its massive body was easy to recognize.

During the month and a half, in order to recover the entry time into the System Space, Lin Jing seldom entered it.

He had been on this stone beach all along, cultivating the Five Elements Divine Art.

Now, Lin Jing was barely able to use the Five Elements Divine Art, though he was still not very proficient at it.

And its power was not very impressive.

However, after a month and a half, the entry time for the System Space had almost fully recovered.

He had already accumulated over 350 hours; in another week, it would be fully accrued.

But Lin Jing didn’t want to wait any longer. He planned to go back into the dense forest to explore again and see if there were other ways out.

Although it was safe here, he couldn’t stay forever. Lin Jing had to find a way to leave Immortal Crossing Island.

This time…

Lin Jing planned to follow the edge of the dense forest to see if there were other paths or things like the stele.

To see if there were any other ways out of Immortal Crossing Island and, if not, explore the center of the island.

……

After making up his mind, Lin Jing then set out.

He walked straight ahead along the stone beach.

However, he had not gone for even a day.

When Lin Jing found that there was no path ahead and that the dense forest spread out before him again.

Having no choice, Lin Jing had to enter the dense forest once more, planning to make his way through it.

Upon reentering the dense forest, Lin Jing was on high alert, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

It seemed to serve as a warning to him that a Demonic Beast at the level of late-stage Foundation Establishment, a Three-Tailed Blue Wolf, launched an attack on Lin Jing just as he entered.

Being highly vigilant, Lin Jing naturally did not let the Three-Tailed Blue Wolf’s sneak attack succeed.

He reacted quickly; the moment the Three-Tailed Blue Wolf attacked, Lin Jing immediately retreated.

At the same time, he activated his Cultivation Technique, and a stream of multicolored light appeared in his hand.

Once the multicolored light had formed, Lin Jing’s mind moved, and the stream of light instantly flew out, striking at the Three-Tailed Blue Wolf.

This multicolored light was the very Five Elements Divine Art that Lin Jing had been cultivating for over a month.

Now was the perfect time to test its power on the late-stage Foundation Establishment Green Wolf.

The multicolored light was not as grandiose as other Spells; its aura was faint, and it was also swift.

The Green Wolf that was pouncing towards Lin Jing quickly noticed the multicolored light, and just as it tried to dodge, the stream of light approached and penetrated its body.

However, the Green Wolf, undeterred, continued its attack on Lin Jing, its fierce eyes filled with nothing but intent to kill.

Lin Jing then focused his mind, and the multicolored light exploded within the body of the Green Wolf.

Only then did the Green Wolf realize what had happened and fell to the ground with a “thump,” subsequently howling miserably and struggling on the ground.

But the multicolored light had already entered the Green Wolf’s body, and regardless of how much it struggled, it was to no avail.

Soon, large amounts of blood spewed from the wolf’s mouth and nose, along with fragments of its internal organs.

Clearly, the multicolored light had wreaked havoc on the Green Wolf’s insides.

In a moment, the howling of the Green Wolf grew quieter, and even its struggles became weaker and weaker.

Seeing that the Green Wolf no longer had the strength to resist, Lin Jing reached out his hand and called back the multicolored light.

Glancing at the power of the multicolored light, Lin Jing smiled knowingly.

Although the multicolored light still felt somewhat sluggish, its power was not to be underestimated.

Especially since it could directly penetrate the body and damage the enemy’s internal organs.

This made it even more difficult to defend against.
