Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 136 - The Eve of Tribulation

Chapter 136: Chapter 136 The Eve of Tribulation

Translator: 549690339

In the middle of the gravel beach, a formation had already taken shape, with its intricate pattern emitting a faint white glow, spreading over a considerable area.

Clearly, this was the formation that Elder Bai had prepared in advance for Elder

Yu.

Seeing the three people arriving, Elder Bai walked over.

Behind him, three other people followed.

And Lin Jing had seen all three of them before.

The Zhang Family Patriarch.

The old master of the Li Family.

And one more: the manager Lin Jing had met when he first arrived at Fang Market.

During the beast tide before, Lin Jing had seen him once more, and it was then that Lin Jing learned that he, too, was a Golden Core Immortal.

Together with Elder Bai himself, there were a total of four Golden Core Immortals prepared to act as protectors for Elder Yu.

It was common for cultivators undergoing tribulation to have protectors.

Protectors mainly served to prevent intentional sabotage.

It is known that the power of the Heavenly Tribulation would increase according to the number of people within its range; the more people within the area, the stronger the power of the tribulation lightning.

Moreover, the lightning struck indifferently, and if someone intruded midway through the tribulation, it was very likely that the power of the Heavenly Tribulation would double.

Consequently, this might lead the one undergoing tribulation to fail, resulting in death and the dissolution of their cultivation path.

“Elder Yu…” As the three immortals arrived, they greeted Elder Yu.

Elder Yu also stepped forward, cupping his fists in salute, “I thank the three immortals for protecting me today…”

“We’ll all be comrades after this, such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning,” the three replied in turn.

At this moment, Elder Bai came over and said to Huang Qingling and Lin Jing:

“Your cultivations are insufficient, making it easy for you to be affected by the tribulation lightning, so you cannot stay too close. Later, go over to that hillside to watch.”

Elder Bai pointed to a hillside in the distance.

“Understood, Old Man Bai…’ fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

“We’ll head there now.”

After instructing the two of them, Elder Bai turned around and went to Elder Yu’s side, speaking with the three immortals about something unknown to the others.

Meanwhile, Lin Jing and Huang Qingling headed towards the hillside.

Soon, they arrived at the top of the hillside.

The hillside was sparsely wooded, so there was no worry about the view being obstructed, and from atop the hill looking down, the perspective was just right to see everything clearly.

It was still early, and the others who were planning to observe Elder Yu’s tribulation had not yet arrived.

With nothing else to do, the two of them watched those few people from afar.

After a while, those who came to observe Elder Yu’s tribulation started to arrive one after another.

Young members from each family, and even the Wu Cai Immortal and the Li Family’s Golden Core Immortal, were present.

After all…

As the current Elder Bai held the position of a steward at Yuebaolou, his status was not ordinary, and he had never made enemies with anyone.

They would naturally come to observe Elder Yu’s tribulation as well.

Even if Wu Cai Immortal had a veiled conflict with Elder Bai, he could not show it openly, for he still needed to keep up appearances.

Besides, there was another important reason for Wu Cai Immortal’s presence; he came for his clan’s younger generation, who was preparing to advance to the Golden Core Stage.

He brought him to observe the tribulation multiple times, so that when his time came, he would be better prepared.

For this purpose, Wu Cai Immortal did not even bring Liu Yiyuan.

He was afraid that Liu Yiyuan, upon seeing Huang Qingling and Lin Jing, might suddenly lose control of his emotions, causing unpleasantness.

And Wu Cai Immortal himself, of course, would not cause trouble. After all, even if Elder Yu successfully traversed his tribulation and entered the Golden Core Stage, he would be just a newly advanced Golden Core, posing no threat to him.

Moreover, the timing wasn’t right, and he had not planned to make a move against Elder Bai.

At this point, down on the gravel beach…

Wu Cai Immortal and the Li Family Immortal were talking with Elder Bai and the others about something, looking quite harmonious.

At that time, a loud noise came.

Lin Jing turned his head and saw a group of youths walking toward this side, consisting of both men and women.

He even recognized a few of them.

Li Tangyu, and the girl who had appeared at the end of the auction, Lin Jing remembered; she seemed to be Li Tangyu’s sister.

Then there was Zhang Yuan from the Zhang Family. Lin Jing had met him twice, and he had once intervened to save Lin Jing, although Lin Jing had been in disguise at that time.

Additionally, there was another person, Li Yao, the Li Family Young Master; his presence did not surprise Lin Jing.

After all, the previous matter between the Liu and Li Families and the Zhang Family had nothing to do with Elder Bai of Yuebaolou. It was normal for him to appear.

Beyond them, Lin Jing did not recognize anyone else.

Following that, Huang Qingling led Lin Jing to the top of the mountain.

A few people approached and greeted Huang Qingling.

“Qing Ling Daoyou…”

“Sister Qing Ling…”

“Daoyou Huang…”

In any case, there were all sorts of greetings, but no one paid any attention to Lin Jing.

Firstly, they did not recognize Lin Jing, having never seen him before; it was obvious that he did not belong to any of the family factions.

Secondly, they belonged to the same social circle and naturally resisted outsiders who were not part of their group.

They were merely curious about Lin Jing being able to follow Huang Qingling.

However, this curiosity did not lead them to approach and make his acquaintance on their own.

It was then that Li Tangyu approached and greeted Lin Jing with a fist and palm salute:

“Lin Daoyou.”

“Li Daoyou…” Lin Jing replied with a similar salute.

“May I ask who this is?” The people found it strange when they saw Li Tangyu take the initiative to greet Lin Jing.

They quickly turned to Li Tangyu with inquiries.

They were aware of Li Tangyu, the Li Family’s Young Master. The fact that Li Tangyu took the initiative to greet someone suggested that the person’s identity was not simple.

Even Li Tangyu’s sister, the cute girl, was puzzled as she looked towards her brother.

“Oh…”

“This is Lin Jing, he is a distant nephew of Pill Master Elder Yu.” Li Tangyu replied.

“So, it’s Lin Daoyou…”

Suddenly, several people greeted Lin Jing enthusiastically.

The rest, even if they did not actively greet him, nodded to Lin Jing in acknowledgment.

Lin Jing responded to each one in turn.

After a round of pleasantries, people stopped paying attention to Lin Jing and started chatting amongst themselves.

After all, Elder Yu had not yet become a Golden Core Immortal, had he?

Lin Jing was pleased with this arrangement and silently walked away to a distance, leaning against a large tree on the hillside, quietly watching the rocky beach below.

Lin Jing knew very well that he was never on the same path as these people; naturally, there was no need for him to be overly entangled with them.

At that moment, Huang Qingling was already chatting with Li Tangyu’s sister; the two girls were chattering incessantly about something.

And the other youths, too, in pairs or threes, were engaged in their own discussions, making the scene quite lively.

Just then, Li Tangyu approached.

“Lin Daoyou, excuse the intrusion…”

After saying this, he pointed toward the crowd, where Huang Qingling and his sister were, and said to Lin Jing:

“Those two are too noisy. I’d like to borrow the tranquillity of Lin Daoyou’s spot for a moment.”

“Lin Daoyou wouldn’t mind, would you?”

Having said this, Li Tangyu looked at Lin Jing with a smile. Lin Jing couldn’t help but grin, “Li Daoyou, please, by all means..”
