Chapter 130: Return to the Great Wilderness

Hidden Dragon Academy, a flying rainbow landed on a mountain peak.

Inside this mountain peak cave dwelling, an astonishing high temperature permeated.

A red carp spirit was refining pills in the sea of fire of the pill cauldron.

Due to being too exhausted from refining the Foundation Establishment Pill for the Pine Leaf Rat and overdrawing its body, the Long Li slept for a long time.

When it woke up, it only saw the sound-recording jade slip left by Lin Jing.

"The Pine Leaf Rat and I went to participate in the academy's Autumn Hunt. I left enough food for you in the cave dwelling."

Repeatedly listening to the sound-recording jade slip, the Long Li waited in silence.

This wait lasted for nearly a month.

Until Lin Jing finally returned.

"Recovered well. I thought you would sleep for a month." After Lin Jing returned, he saw the spirited Long Li and smiled slightly.

"Bo bo bo!!!" The Long Li jumped out of the fire cauldron, flapping and protesting.

Lin Jing laughed: "A broken mountain range, nothing fun anyway."

The Long Li was suspicious.

The matter of the Dragon Phoenix Cave Heaven last time leaving it behind alone still weighed on its mind...

"Bo..." It was extremely nervous. Did it miss any important opportunities this time?

"Of course not." Lin Jing said: "Just a pool of Nanshan Demon Emperor's dragon blood."

The Long Li:???

"It was diluted, so it doesn't mean much to you."

The Long Li nodded tremblingly. That's good then.

"Rest assured, I have been thinking of you this time. After all, you were exhausted to the point of sleeping because you were refining the Foundation Establishment Pill for the Pine Leaf Rat."

"So, I specially caught top-grade delicious mosquito beasts from the Vast Mountain Range to be your food."

"These mosquitoes have all sucked their fill in the dragon blood pool for you. If you substitute them by weight, it's equivalent to you not missing the Demon Emperor Blood Pool either!" Lin Jing analyzed reasonably.

"Bo!!!" The Long Li giggled, knowing its status in Lin Jing's heart was extremely heavy.

It expectantly waited for Lin Jing to release the mosquitoes.

Lin Jing also released the mosquito beasts as it wished.

However, Lin Jing released all the mosquito beasts.

Buzz buzz buzz...

More than a hundred mosquito beasts flew over the cave dwelling, each one almost catching up to the Long Li in size.

Seeing so many fat and delicious big mosquitoes, the Long Li's eyes went straight.

It instantly flapped over, opened its big mouth, and wanted to eat one first.

However, the next moment, the mosquito beast targeted by the Long Li glanced over with violent eyes and "Boom"—crashed the Long Li back.

Bang!

A big pit appeared on the ground.

The Long Li was in pain all over, staring at that mosquito in disbelief.

At this moment, every mosquito beast was permeated with a monstrous blood shadow, and the Long Li's King-level bloodline faintly felt a threat.

Ah?

The Long Li didn't believe in evil and locked onto one again...

Before it even got close, it was forced back by the oppressive feeling of the mosquito swarm and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the Long Li doubted whether it hadn't woken up yet.

How could it not be a match for the food prepared by the beast tamer...

On the side, Lin Jing was expressionless.

"What's wrong with you? Have you been slacking off in cultivation this month? How can you not even beat the ingredients prepared for you?"

The Long Li was on the verge of tears, the sky had collapsed. It also wanted to know! It just didn't go to participate in an Autumn Hunt, how did it end up not even being able to beat its food!

The Demon Emperor Blood Pool, it doesn't look like a useless opportunity ah ah ah!

The Long Li was stunned, a little suspicious that when Lin Jing achieves Foundation Establishment, he would contract the mosquito beasts first, not it.

It bit Lin Jing's trouser leg, praying that next time there is any activity, he must take it along.

This reality of time confusion and not even being able to beat its food gave it the illusion that it had slept for ten years, not ten days.

Lin Jing laughed: "Alright, next time for sure. We will go out in two days, and I will definitely take you then."

The Long Li's eyes lit up, asking where they were going.

"An extremely cold place, to help the Ice Soul Gu achieve Foundation Establishment."

The Long Li:???

Just as Lin Jing wanted to add something, a powerful aura suddenly descended outside the cave dwelling.

"Forget it, I won't tease you. This mosquito swarm is relatively special, so their strength is a bit stronger. I'll explain it to you later."

"Don't doubt your fish life." Lin Jing stopped the persecution.

A moment later, he walked out of the cave dwelling and saw that it was indeed Mr. Cao Ziwei.

Mr. Cao Ziwei said with a smile: "During the Autumn Hunt, your performance was truly surprising."

"Mr. Cao, you flatter me."

"Mr. Cao, you came here, is there anything?" Lin Jing asked.

Cao Ziwei nodded: "Naturally. During this Autumn Hunt, a powerhouse from the Heavenly Secret Tower also watched the battle and thinks highly of you. He asked me to bring you a message."

"Two years later, the Heavenly Secret Tower will invite cultivators from the Heaven's Pride Human Ranking in the Sky Domain to conduct the Heaven's Pride Battle, allowing the Heaven's Pride Human Ranking to be reshuffled. He hopes you can complete Foundation Establishment during this period and participate in this Heaven's Pride Battle."

"You should be 27 years old this year, right? This Autumn Hunt will definitely allow you to ascend to the Heaven's Pride Ranking. However, the Heaven's Pride Human Ranking only records genius cultivators under 30. Not long after you ascend, you will disappear from the ranking list."

"He feels that if you yourself can also achieve Foundation Establishment, you will definitely be able to enter the forefront of the Heaven's Pride Human Ranking. This Heaven's Pride Battle is a very good opportunity. I hope you won't miss it."

"The Heavenly Secret Tower would actually hold such a competition..." Lin Jing was surprised.

"Naturally, the Heavenly Secret Tower relies on selling various intelligence for revenue. Every issue of the Heaven's Pride Ranking is also their main source of income. In recent years, the Heaven's Pride Ranking has been a pool of stagnant water, and there hasn't been a major change for a long time. Their business has also started to become difficult to do, so naturally, they have to push the waves." Mr. Cao laughed.

Lin Jing understood: "Many thanks, Mr. Cao. I happen to be going out for training to find a place with good feng shui for Foundation Establishment. I will keep an eye on the Heaven's Pride Battle held by the Heavenly Secret Tower."

"You are going out?" Cao Ziwei worried about Lin Jing. After all, Lin Jing had just encountered a Demon Emperor hunt not long ago. However, thinking of Lin Jing's guardian's strength, he wasn't worried anymore. As long as he traveled low-key, it would be fine.

"Yes." Lin Jing said in a trance. Besides, going to the extremely cold place happens to require passing through the Desolate Domain.

It has been four years, and he also wants to take the opportunity to see the Beast Taming Sect.

Although the Beast Taming Sect is gone now, most of the Beast Taming Sect members are temporarily staying in the Hundred Flower Valley.

He wants to go to the Hundred Flower Valley to see how the acquaintances of the Beast Taming Sect are doing now.

Hidden Dragon City is one of the only two cities in the Ancient Domain that possesses a "cross-domain transmission array".

However, the price of one transmission is an astronomical figure. Most cultivators would rather spend time walking more dangerous roads than use the cross-domain transmission array.

Although Lin Jing had just snatched quite a few spirit stones from the Autumn Hunt, he was also unwilling to spend this unjust money.

Although ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators would have to spend no small effort and a long time to cross domains, Lin Jing has the Guardian Pine!

A Soul Transformation-level Guardian Pine, it should be a piece of cake to quickly travel through several regions. Just as Lin Jing was planning to return to the Great Wilderness Domain, in the Sky Domain, the Heavenly Secret Tower.

Tian Huihua returned and informed her master about what happened in the academy's Autumn Hunt.

"Don't worry about this Heaven's Pride Ranking for now. Go find your little junior sister. She sneaked out."

Tian Huihua was stunned: "Eighty years of bitter cultivation is indeed too long. It is human nature for the little junior sister to be unable to endure it and sneak out..."

"Before she sneaked out, she did a divination for that Lin Jing. I don't know what she calculated, but she doesn't eat or drink, giggling all day. It should be that she calculated some good thing. You protect her in secret. If there is an opportunity, take it. The most important thing is not to let her be deceived by that Lin Jing. This person is not kind." ===== CHAPTER 131 =====
