Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 376 - 76: Earth Flame Spring
Chapter 376: Chapter 76: Earth Flame Spring
After Lin Jing finished speaking, Lu Youjiu and the others were silent for a moment,
then Yan Wanfei directly spoke up, saying,
“Why don’t we just go and have a look? With San He around, even if there is a hidden formation, it won’t escape San He’s magical eye.”
After finishing, he turned his head and said to Holaw Three Rivers:
“Isn’t that right, San He?”
Holaw Three Rivers hesitated for a moment before saying:
“Earlier, I briefly surveyed the entire island and didn’t find anything unusual.”
“So, I cannot guarantee if we can find that hidden ‘treasure’, but it’s worth a look anyway.”
Lu Youjiu also nodded in agreement.
So, the three of them decided to explore the valley.
……
An hour later, Lin Jing and the others arrived above the valley on their Flying Swords.
“It’s the valley below.”
Lin Jing pointed to a lush, forested valley below and spoke.
In the valley, besides the lush flowers, grass, and trees, there were the surrounding rocky cliffs.
Of course, there was also a small pond in the middle of the valley.
Lin Jing had once been down to this pond; it was not deep nor had anything unusual, just an ordinary pond formed from long-time rainfall accumulation.
One could easily take in the entire valley at a glance.
Lin Jing and his friends, riding their Flying Swords, first circled around the valley before landing on a mountaintop on one side of it, where they looked down to observe the whole valley.
After observing for a while, Yan Wanfei was the first to speak:
“This looks like an ordinary valley, nothing special at all.”
After Yan Wanfei’s words fell, Lu Youjiu looked at Holaw Three Rivers and asked:
“San He, what do you think? Have you noticed anything?”
At this moment, Holaw Three Rivers furrowed his brows, still carefully observing the entire valley.
Only after a moment did he raise his head and say to the group:
“You guys wait here for a moment, I’ll go down alone and take a closer look…”
Having said this, without waiting for a response, Holaw Three Rivers was already leading the way off the mountaintop and flying down into the valley.
As for Lin Jing and the others, they continued to stand atop the mountain, looking down.
After Holaw Three Rivers descended, he first took out a Magical Treasure that resembled an Array Plate, then activated it, and instantly, a yellow light shone from that Array Plate.
Holding the Array Plate-like Magical Treasure, he began searching within the valley, seemingly looking for the hidden formation.
Until an hour had passed and Yan Wanfei was already scratching his head impatiently, Holaw Three Rivers finally finished his survey and flew back.
Upon his return, Yan Wanfei immediately asked impatiently:
“San He, how did it go?”
“Is there really something here that can enhance cultivation?”
Holaw Three Rivers shook his head and said, “It’s still unclear.”
Then, he looked at the group and added:
“This valley does have some anomalies.”
“It’s very likely that there is a high-level concealment formation present, and now, I need your help to locate this formation.”
Yan Wanfei said:
“Help? Of course, that’s no problem at all, but what exactly do you need us to do?”
Lin Jing and Lu Youjiu nodded to each other and said:
“No problem.”
Afterward, Holaw Three Rivers took out four Formation Flags from his Storage Bag, giving one to each person.
Then he said:
“Place these Formation Flags where I tell you to, and then just wait. After I have made all the preparations, I’ll notify you…”
“Then, you just need to channel your Spiritual Power into the Formation Flags…”
The group nodded upon hearing this.
Following that,
Holaw Three Rivers began to assign positions.
The positions were straightforward, just around several mountaintops surrounding the valley; they each took a position on one of them.
Then, they just had to place the Formation Flags at the highest points of these mountaintops.
Once all the Flags were in place, Holaw Three Rivers became busy again.
He flew directly on his Flying Sword into the air above the valley, and then gathered his Spiritual Power to trace out a large formation above the valley.
After completing all these tasks, Holaw Three Rivers flew back to the mountaintop where he was stationed, and then told the group:
“Okay, begin now…”
As soon as Holaw Three Rivers spoke, the others began channeling their Spiritual Power into the Formation Flags.
With the input of Spiritual Power, the Formation Flags began to emit white light, which grew brighter as they continued to channel their power.
Eventually, the light spread along the formation that Holaw Three Rivers had traced out.
Within moments, the entire formation was activated and brightly lit up.
Seeing the formation activated, Holaw Three Rivers called out to them:
“Okay, you can stop now.”
The group then ceased their efforts.
Following this, Holaw Three Rivers flew towards the middle of the valley.
He then moved his lips slightly, muttering an unknown incantation. Next, he touched his hands, glowing brightly, to his eyes, and suddenly his eyes emitted a golden light.
Then, in this manner, he looked down at the valley below.
Soon.
Holaw Three Rivers seemed to have discovered something, and then he rushed toward one side to take cover.
The others, upon seeing this, also quickly looked over.
Where Holaw Three Rivers had rushed to was a crevice in the rock. Lin Jing turned his head to look, but did not notice anything unusual.
Holaw Three Rivers observed the crevice for a while, and then with a gesture, several Formation Flags flew back to him, and the large formation also disappeared.
Then, he turned his head and said to the others,
“I’ve found it, come over here…”
Having said this, the others also flew over.
The first to arrive, naturally, was the eagerly awaiting Yan Wanfei.
As soon as Yan Wanfei arrived, he began to ask,
“San He, is there really a hidden formation? What’s inside? Is it a treasure?”
It seemed that Yan Wanfei’s obsession with treasures was quite deep.
However, Holaw Three Rivers shook his head and said,
“It’s still unclear. We’ll only know once we go inside.”
After speaking, Holaw Three Rivers scattered several Formation Flags near the crevice again.
With a wave of his hand, another formation came into being.
As this formation formed, the crevice, which had initially appeared ordinary, suddenly changed.
The crevice, previously blocked by rocks, now revealed an opening, and from this opening, faint red light was emanating.
By this time, Lin Jing and Lu Youjiu had just arrived.
As soon as the two arrived, they felt a wave of heat emitting from the opening.
The inside of this opening was hot.
It was still unknown what ‘treasure’ lay inside.
Seeing that Lu Youjiu and Lin Jing had also arrived, Yan Wanfei then said,
“Since everyone is here, let’s go in now.”
“I’ve been impatient for a while to see what treasure is inside.”
Lin Jing then spoke, “I think we should still prepare a bit. It would be bad if there’s any danger.”
Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers nodded in agreement with Lin Jing’s view.
“Yes…” Yan Wanfei scratched his head and said.
Thus, after a discussion and some preparations, they began to explore the cave.
The cave was not very large; they could only advance side by side.
Lu Youjiu, walking at the forefront, was cautiously alert, simultaneously extending his Divine Sense to observe inside the cave.
Lin Jing did the same, extending his Divine Sense deep into the cave.
The cave was quite deep, and momentarily, even Lin Jing’s Divine Sense could not reach the end.
Moreover, upon probing, Lin Jing discovered that this cave seemed to continuously descend.
……
Who knows how long it had been…
As they walked deeper, the inside of the cave became hotter.
On the cave’s stone walls, dark red rocks started to appear.
These dark red rocks, known as Fire Rocks, were Artifact Refining Materials that appeared only in high-temperature underground.
However, these materials were not difficult to find nor very high-grade, only usable for refining Low Rank Magical Instruments.
“The Fire Attribute Spiritual Power here is so high!” Yan Wanfei spoke at this time.
Indeed.
Compared to the outside world, the Spiritual Power inside the cave was imbalanced, with Fire Attribute Spiritual Power taking up a large portion.
Because Lin Jing practiced the Immortal Five Elements Technique, he felt a deeper balance among the different attributes of Spiritual Power.
So, he had sensed it early on.
Lu Youjiu, walking at the front, then spoke:
“I suspect that there might be an Earth Flame Spring inside.”
Earth Flame Spring, hot springs formed from underground thermal vents, are extremely hot, unlike regular springs.
Because the Earth Flame Spring emits springs filled with Fire Attribute essence.
Moreover, due to its extremely high temperature, not only do cultivators who practice Fire Attribute Cultivation Techniques love it, but Artifact Refiners are also fond of the Earth Flame Spring.
In addition, due to its extreme heat, it also helps Body Refinement Cultivators to temper their bodies and advance in levels.
And the Fire Attribute essence…
That could be considered the ancestor of Fire Attribute Spiritual Power, greatly helping those who cultivate Fire Attribute Cultivation Techniques.
Of course, if the cultivation level is too low, then forget it, because it’s very likely that the overwhelming Fire Attribute essence could cause one to burst and die.
Holaw Three Rivers also nodded and said,
“Indeed, as we have walked till now, the whole cave has become hotter, it’s very likely to be an Earth Flame Spring.”
Afterward, they continued forward.
This time, after another long hour, they finally reached the interior of the cave.
At this point, they finally came into a large, spacious cavern.
This cavern, constantly infused by the Earth Flame Spring over the years, had its rocky walls all turned fiery red.
And these fiery red rocks were a level higher than Fire Rocks as Artifact Refining Materials, Fire Rock Crystals.
In the center of the cave was the Earth Flame Spring, filled with a fiery red color and emitting billowing heat.
“It really is an Earth Flame Spring…”
Yan Wanfei, looking at the continuously steaming Earth Flame Spring in front of him, said excitedly.
