Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 327 - 29: Minotaur Warrior Yan Wanfei
Chapter 327: Chapter 29: Minotaur Warrior Yan Wanfei
The azure sea stretched endlessly, so tranquil that not even a seabird was in sight.
Yet upon this serene surface,
suddenly, a teleportation portal emerged from thin air, and from within, a robust figure tumbled down.
With a “splash,” he fell into the sea.
Sometime later, a person floated up to the surface.
His skin was dark, his body extremely strong.
It was none other than Lin Jing, who had just been transported from the Immortal Crossing Island.
After being sent from Immortal Crossing Island, Lin Jing had landed straight into this sea.
When Lin Jing felt the moist, salty breeze and the Spiritual Energy, which was much denser than that of the Nanming Domain,
his heart couldn’t help but swell with comfort.
Appearing here meant that he had indeed left Immortal Crossing Island.
A moment later, Lin Jing surfaced from the sea.
As soon as Lin Jing had surfaced, a fish about two to three meters long, with its gaping maw, lunged at him, aiming to take a bite.
Inside the mouth of the fish was a row of clean white teeth, glinting coldly, looking incredibly sharp.
However,
it seemed to have chosen the wrong target.
Upon seeing the fish, Lin Jing appeared to be even more excited than it was.
His face showed delight and his eyes shone with anticipation as he stared at the fish, licking around his mouth eagerly.
It had been a long time since he had tasted meat.
In the desert for all these years, Lin Jing’s days revolved solely around cultivation…
The monotony of that life was nearly maddening.
Though at Lin Jing’s level of cultivation he no longer needed to eat, sometimes he still craved the taste of food.
And this huge fish presenting itself upon his emergence provided an excellent chance for Lin Jing to partake in some meat.
Lin Jing didn’t hesitate and, feeling the aura emanating from the fish, he realized that it was a Demonic Beast in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.
No wonder it was so bold as to consider Lin Jing its prey.
As the fish attacked, a smile curled at the corners of Lin Jing’s mouth, and he extended one arm.
Indeed, seeing this, the fish opened its vast mouth and bit towards Lin Jing’s arm.
In the moment the fish snapped its jaws, Lin Jing hooked his fist, which glinted with a dark luster, and thrust it through the fish’s gills from the side.
In pain, the fish struggled desperately and tried to snap Lin Jing’s arm with its sharp teeth.
However,
despite the sharpness of its teeth, they were no more effective than a tickling sensation against Lin Jing’s skin and couldn’t cause any harm.
Actually, several of the fish’s teeth were even broken in the process.
Joking aside, after the arduous trials in the Immortal Crossing Trial Grounds, Lin Jing was now a bona fide, peak Foundation Establishment Body Refinement Cultivator.
Even without using any spells, he could wrestle with any Demonic Beast at the peak of Foundation Establishment—how could he fear a mere fish-based Demonic Beast in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment?
But, it must be said, this fish had significant strength.
With no leverage in the water, Lin Jing saw he was being dragged back into the sea by the fish.
Then, focusing power into his other hand, Lin Jing slammed a forceful punch on top of the fish’s head.
The fish rolled its eyes and passed out on the spot.
Only then did Lin Jing breathe a sigh of relief.
Next,
Lin Jing took out his Flawless Sword and, soaring upon it, turned the fish around, grabbed its slender tail, and flew away from the area with it.
Now, although he had come out from Immortal Crossing Island,
in this boundless sea, Lin Jing did not know where he was.
He had to find an island or some land first.
Of course, it would be best if it were a place inhabited by humans so he could ask around and determine his bearings.
And so,
Lin Jing, holding the fish, flew over the sea for several hours until twilight, when he finally spotted a small island.
After a wave of joy, Lin Jing flew down to the island atop his sword.
The island in the sea was not too large; from above, Lin Jing estimated it to be only a few hundred square kilometers.
Several mountains rose sharply from the island, its greenery enveloping the peaks, with sea birds darting through the lush foliage.
However, there were no signs of human habitation on the small island.
Lin Jing sheathed his Flawless Sword and landed on the sandy beach at the edge of the island.
After landing, Lin Jing looked around carefully but didn’t spot any dangers.
Then, taking out his Flawless Sword again, he cleaned the fish quickly and efficiently.
Afterward, he gathered a few straight branches to serve as a makeshift rack and set the fish upon it, starting a bonfire to roast his catch.
Roasting fish was not the same as Alchemy; although he was cooking a Demonic Beast, using the flames from Alchemy would likely have turned the whole fish to charcoal.
So fire-making was a must when roasting a fish.
After a period of turning and roasting, a rich aroma wafted from the slightly charred fish in front of him.
Lin Jing found himself unable to resist salivating.
It was just a pity that he did not bring any seasoning; otherwise, the taste would have been even better with some added flavors.
Just as Lin Jing was patiently waiting for the fish to cook through while fixating on it,
a figure was flying towards the island over the sea ahead.
Lin Jing sensed the presence of the newcomer, then looked up with a frown towards the approaching figure.
This arriving figure had a strong aura,
and judging by the momentum emanating from their body, they should be a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core.
The figure approached swiftly, and in a short time, he was near the island.
Lin Jing could now see that the flying man was a rather burly fellow, with muscles that were developed to the point they were almost on par with his own.
Based on the man’s original trajectory, he would have flown past not far from Lin Jing’s front.
However, upon spotting Lin Jing, he immediately altered his flight direction and headed straight towards Lin Jing.
On this deserted and silent island, the sudden appearance of a Golden Core Cultivator, especially one flying towards oneself, was not a good sign.
Lin Jing immediately furrowed his brows and began to circulate his spiritual power in preparation for any unforeseen events.
The burly man arrived above Lin Jing, retracted the bright silver spear he was flying on into his hand, and descended from the air, landing in front of Lin Jing.
The man looked at Lin Jing, his eyes shining peculiarly as he sized him up from head to toe.
Lin Jing felt uneasy under the burly man’s gaze.
“Could this man have some peculiar hobby?” Lin Jing wondered apprehensively to himself.
The man seemed to understand Lin Jing’s thoughts and quickly clarified,
“Don’t misunderstand, I’m not interested in you. I just noticed that your body refining techniques seem quite extraordinary.”
“Are you a body refinement cultivator?” he then asked.
Seeing that the man seemed to hold no hostility towards him, Lin Jing relaxed a tad and replied,
“In response to the senior, I indeed have practiced some body refining techniques.”
Nevertheless, faced with the Golden Core Cultivator before him, he still maintained the respectful demeanor of a junior towards a senior.
After all, Lin Jing was currently only at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
“May I ask what brings the senior here? If there’s anything I can help with, please do tell,” Lin Jing said.
No sooner had Lin Jing finished speaking than the burly man in front began to wave his hands disapprovingly,
“Given your cultivation, I guess you’re close to undergoing Tribulation, right? Once you successfully cross it, you’ll be like me, a Golden Core Cultivator as well.”
“So, let’s forget about the senior thing, to avoid any awkwardness in the future,” he added.
While they were talking, the smell of something burning suddenly filled the air.
Both Lin Jing and the burly man looked down at the fish on the grill.
It turned out that Lin Jing, preoccupied with talking to the burly man, had forgotten to turn the fish, which had now burned.
“Damn, the fish has burned…” the burly man exclaimed, reacting even more strongly than Lin Jing.
As he spoke, he stepped towards Lin Jing.
This action left Lin Jing somewhat bewildered.
Out of caution, Lin Jing still took two steps back.
However, the burly man didn’t seem to care as he walked straight up to the grilled fish and flipped it over.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jing felt embarrassed.
It turned out the man had come over to flip the fish.
After flipping the fish, the man looked at the slightly charred areas with a hint of regret and said,
“It’s a shame about this good fish…”
He then reached into his Storage Bag and started pulling out several jars and bottles.
Looking up at Lin Jing, he said,
“You caught the fish, I’ll provide the seasoning. We split the fish half and half, how about it?”
Watching the somewhat simple-minded man, Lin Jing nodded and replied,
“Of course that’s fine…”
Upon receiving Lin Jing’s agreement, the man grinned broadly and began seasoning the fish.
It had to be said that this rough man seemed to know a thing or two about cooking.
The seasonings hadn’t been on for long before an overpowering aroma started to waft up irresistibly into the nostrils.
Lin Jing, who had already been craving for several years, felt his hunger piqued even further by the smell, causing the worms in his stomach to act up.
“Gulp”
Unable to contain himself, Lin Jing swallowed saliva and couldn’t help but glance at the grilled fish.
The burly man, who was seriously grilling the fish, was in the same boat as Lin Jing, continuously flipping the fish over.
His eyes were fixated on the grilled fish, and Lin Jing could clearly see drool about to drip from his unconsciously open mouth.
As the aroma of the grilled fish became thicker, its surface turned a complete golden brown.
At that moment, the burly man picked up the grilled fish and declared,
“It’s ready…”
He then split the whole grilled fish down the middle.
Taking half, he handed it over to Lin Jing.
Upon receiving his share, Lin Jing didn’t bother with formalities and bit into the fish.
The alluring scent had made it hard for him to stay put while the fish was being grilled.
He went for it without hesitation.
Indeed, the man’s cooking skills were excellent.
With that first bite, the flavor was so delicious that Lin Jing almost wished he could swallow his own tongue.
It was then the man introduced himself,
“I am the Bullheaded Warrior, Yan Wanfei. May I ask your name?”
“Bullheaded Warrior, Yan Wanfei?” Lin Jing scrutinized the burly man with bewilderment but nonetheless revealed his own name.
“Lin Jing!”
