CapĂtulo 1931: Chapter 992: Cold Water Ginseng
Including Qin Xi beside him, her battle prowess also surpassed Lin Tianmingâs expectations.
From this angle, the process of this battle was exceptionally smooth, and the result proceeded as anticipated.
As for the outcome and Qin Xiâs performance, Lin Tianming had no complaints whatsoever.
For this reason, Lin Tianming felt genuinely satisfied and excited.
Calming down a little, Lin Tianming stopped in front of the Ink Jiao.
Behind him, Qin Xi quickly followed in his footsteps.
At this moment, Lin Tianming looked at the Ink Jiaoâs body and then said to Qin Xi beside him, âXiâer, quickly gather the Ink Jiaoâs body and erase the traces of our battle.â
âOnce thatâs done, we will explore the Ink Jiaoâs lair to see if we can find any Heaven and Earth Treasures.â
Speaking of this, Lin Tianming chuckled and continued, âAfter all, itâs a powerful Fourth Order Demonic Beast; to cultivate to such a level, it must have relied on something.â
âGiven that, there should be some good things in the Ink Jiaoâs lair!â
Upon hearing this, Qin Xi nodded slightly, and then began using her Longsword Treasure to skillfully cut and segment the Ink Jiaoâs corpse, collecting those important parts.
Including the scales scattered on the ground, Qin Xi also made sure to collect them all.
And these items, originating from a Fourth Order Demonic Beast, are absolutely excellent materials for refining Magical Treasures in the current Cultivation World. Even with their affluent wealth now, they cannot afford to waste them.
After all, the Lin Family currently has many Golden Core Stage Clansmen; although Magical Treasures arenât utterly scarce, top-tier treasures are still desperately needed by the Lin Family.
Especially defensive Magical Treasures, the Lin Family has a significant demand for them at present.
These black scales of the Ink Jiao inherently possess powerful defensive power, and once refined into Magical Treasures, they can unleash extremely formidable strength.
So, these good things in the eyes of Golden Core Stage Cultivators must not be wasted.
Including the flesh and blood of the Ink Jiao, as it contains potent Qi-Blood energy, which Lin Tianmingâs Third Order Spiritual Beasts can consume, leveraging these energies to enhance their strength.
In this way, as Lin Tianming and Qin Xi cleaned the battlefield, they did not miss any useful items.
Thus, after about half a quarter-hour of collecting, the massive body of the Ink Jiao had been entirely gathered by them.
Including those scattered body parts, they were also sorted and collected.
After completing these tasks, they started erasing the traces of the battle.
Before long, the site was meticulously cleaned, and the battle traces were erased.
At this very moment, if one hadnât witnessed this battle firsthand, anyone observing the current scene would find it hard to imagine that such a horrendous battle had taken place here.
At this point, Lin Tianming and his wife gathered together again, their gazes both fixed on the central section of the pond.
In Qin Xiâs eyes, the pondâs color was peculiar and bottomless, making it impossible to discover any crucial information.
Yet in Lin Tianmingâs sight, he found the pond very deep, and its bottom seemed vast, like it was hiding a world of its own.
Upon reflection, this seemed quite normal to him.
After all, the Ink Jiao, being a Fourth Order Demonic Beast, its body was tremendously large, and its lair where it often slept and cultivated was certainly not small.
Therefore, the pond was inherently sizable, and the bottom being the usual dwelling place of the Ink Jiao, seemed understandably otherworldly.
And the more that was true, the more interested Lin Tianming became in the Ink Jiaoâs lair; he also harbored intense anticipation.
Driven by such expectations, Lin Tianming looked at the calm pond and jumped in without hesitation.
Immediately, Qin Xi followed closely behind him.
Soon, Lin Tianming and his wife began diving slowly towards the bottom of the pond.
And indeed, the pond was extremely deep, and the lower they went, the colder the water temperature became, and its color grew deeper, all affecting their Divine Sense to varying degrees.
Fortunately, Lin Tianming and his wifeâs Divine Sense was strong, allowing them to clearly investigate the surrounding basic situation.
Especially Lin Tianming, whose Divine Sense was immensely formidable, aided by the Eye of Five Colors, the pondâs color barely affected him.
Consequently, after the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the couple finally reached the bottom of the pond.
Based on Lin Tianmingâs calculations, this place was at least several thousand feet deep from the surface.
Perhaps it was precisely because of the pondâs immense depth, coupled with the bone-chilling water temperature and deep water color, that evidently weakened the cultivatorâs Divine Sense, making it an ideal hiding place.
Regarding this point, Lin Tianming was very confident internally; this was most likely where the Ink Jiaoâs lair was located.
Only such a place would fit the Ink Jiaoâs attributes, hence it chose this location for its lair.
Moreover, the basic characteristics of this place were also quite prominent.
Logically, once such a place is seen by cultivators entering the Secret Realm, they would undoubtedly come down to explore.
However, the environmental factors here were rather harsh, whether or not other cultivators discovered it was something Lin Tianming was momentarily unaware of.
Of course, another possibility is that someone discovered this place but ultimately could only stop due to environmental factors.
And now, having successfully arrived at the deepest part of the pond, the couple could finally conduct an in-depth investigation to find out what was actually here.
