Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Afterward, Lin Jing proceeded forward as if he noticed nothing unusual. All along the way, the feeling of being tracked flickered in and out of existence. It wasn't until he left the Fang Market and entered the outskirts that this sensation abruptly intensified. Lin Jing could even feel that his heartbeat was quicker than usual. "Ding" A sudden system notification chime caused Lin Jing to pause in confusion. "System notification: Host detected to be in danger, Alert Mode has been automatically upgraded." "Alert Mode upgrade will deduct 10 Harvest Points; the host's current Harvest Points are 49, which have been automatically deducted." "Current remaining Harvest Points: 39." "System upgrading..." "Ding" "Alert Mode upgrade complete, this feature is now usable in the outside world." … "Warning!" "Within the Alert Range, someone harbors murderous intent towards the host, please respond promptly." Upon seeing the system notification, Lin Jing finally came to his senses. "The feeling I had wasn't wrong, someone really is tracking me and they're harboring murderous intent." Someone wanted to kill him. Obviously, this person could no longer restrain themselves after leaving the Fang Market. Lin Jing kept walking as if unaware, until he reached the mouth of an alley. With a swift turn, he entered the alley. "System." "Enter System Space." Once inside the alley, Lin Jing mentally summoned the System and entered the System Space. "System, activate Observation Mode." No sooner had he entered the System Space than Lin Jing activated the Observation Mode. Then, as the view shifted, Lin Jing began his observation, with the outside situation clearly visible. He saw a figure clad in black dash over quickly after Lin Jing disappeared. "Eh? Where did he go?" The man scanned the area and, failing to detect Lin Jing, uttered his confusion aloud. Under Observation Mode, Lin Jing also had a clear view of this person's face. It was the same man in black who had tried to sell Lin Jing the Black Market Token that day. Lin Jing frowned and pondered: "Could it be that this person has been eyeing me for a while now?" Soon enough, the man in black provided Lin Jing with an answer. After searching the area and finding no trace of anyone, the man in black started to doubt. "Where did the guy run off to, disappearing all of a sudden?" "That shouldn't be possible. He's just a Junior Cultivator in the initial stages of Qi Refinement; it's impossible for him to have noticed me. Could I have been exposed all along?" "Then all these days waiting would have been in vain?" The man in black murmured to himself, visibly frustrated. Ever since the incident with the Black Market Token, he had been staking out the Fang Market for several days, waiting for Lin Jing to show up again. He had waited until today, and just when he tried to follow Lin Jing once more, he lost him, leaving the man in black unspeakably distressed. In his mind, Lin Jing was just a Junior Cultivator with the third level of Qi Refinement, while he himself was at the seventh level; it made no sense that he would lose track of him. After all, he was using his Divine Sense to keep an eye on the guy, yet he suddenly vanished. ...... Having heard the man in black's words, Lin Jing now understood that the man had been waiting for him since the Black Market Token incident. It was likely not just about revenge; the man probably also had designs on his life and wealth. Recalling the man in black's behavior after he sold the Elixir Medicines that day, Lin Jing became even more certain of his assumptions. "It seems that this man must be dealt with." The man had already committed to memory his disguised appearance, and since Lin Jing knew no arts of disguise, no matter how he might dress up, it would be useless; a slip-up was inevitable. And now, he didn't possess any magical treasures that could change his appearance. Being targeted by this person meant he would likely never have peace in the future. Therefore, this person must be eliminated. Having decided to eliminate this individual, Lin Jing immediately took out his Storage Bag and pulled out two talismans. The two Five Thunder Talismans previously given to him by Senior Han. These were Lin Jing's trump cards. At this moment, the man in black outside had searched for a while but hadn't found Lin Jing. He was hanging his head, preparing to leave. Just then, a voice suddenly came from behind him. "You've been following for so long, are you trying to make a deal with me?" The man in black was startled by the sudden voice, whirled around, and looked in the direction from which the voice had come, only to see Lin Jing standing there. "It's you! How did you get here?" The man in black stared at Lin Jing, asking in confusion. "That's none of your concern." "You've followed me all this way, could it be you want to trade your whatever Black Market Token with me again?" The man in black suddenly laughed. "Trade?" After speaking, he took out a Black Market Token and started to fondle it in his hand. "Are you talking about this?" "This is a fine item, too bad you don't know its worth." After speaking, the corners of the man in black's mouth curled up into a cruel arc. "Die." The man in black suddenly charged forward, commanding a magic artifact Flying Sword as he rushed towards Lin Jing. Since the person before him was too mysterious, and to avoid any prolonged complications, he decided not to delay and intended to kill him directly. Meanwhile, Lin Jing was not at all flustered, his gaze intense as he watched the approaching man in black. When the man in black was about ten meters away from Lin Jing. "Go!" Lin Jing let out a light shout and quickly threw the Five Thunder Talisman he had been holding behind him. By the time the man in black noticed and saw clearly, the Five Thunder Talisman was already in front of him. "Five Thunder Talisman!!!" The man in black was immediately frightened out of his wits, his earlier arrogance vanishing as he hastily stopped and tried to retreat. However, by then it was already too late to retreat. "Explode!" As Lin Jing's words fell, the violent energy contained within the Five Thunder Talisman tore the talisman to shreds; dozens of bolts of lightning appeared out of nowhere, illuminating the entire sky, and a continuous booming sound engulfed the man in black whole. "Aaahhh…" The man in black rolled incessantly, emitting a piercing scream… However, the screaming didn't last long before it vanished. And the man in black became motionless. It was a joke, after all, the Five Thunder Talisman, which could only be crafted by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, released spells equivalent to the full-powered strike of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. And what cultivation level did that man in black possess? Naturally, he could not withstand the attack of the Five Thunder Talisman. After a moment, the lightning dissipated, and the energy contained in the Five Thunder Talisman had been fully expended. Only then did Lin Jing approach and saw the terrible state of the man in black; half of his body had already disappeared, and most of the remaining half had turned to char. Clearly, he was dead beyond the shadow of a doubt. Lin Jing breathed a sigh of relief and then stowed away the second Five Thunder Talisman. Picking up the broken Flying Sword from the ground, Lin Jing rifled through the man in black's body. Before long, a Storage Bag caught his eye. "Good, the Storage Bag is unharmed." Having said that, Lin Jing picked the Storage Bag from the body, then reached out to catch it and tucked it away. "With such a commotion here, it won't be long before someone comes. If discovered, that would be a big trouble for him." With that thought, Lin Jing adhered a Godspeed Talisman and an Invisibility Talisman to himself, looked around, and seeing no one else nearby, he swiftly left the area with the aid of the Godspeed Talisman.
