Chapter 555: Practitioners' Gathering

"Senior Lin... It was Senior Hu who said that we must report and explain the Zhuge family matter to you personally, so we brought him."

"Now, because the Zhuge family indulged demon beasts in eating people, the whole clan has been investigated, and the two decision-makers have also been detained..."

After Zhu Yan and Hu Yousong left, Huang Qianyun hurriedly explained to Lin Jing, fearing that Lin Jing would blame them.

"This matter is over, you go."

Lin Jing naturally would not vent his anger on others because of this small matter. Now that the breakthrough was completed, everything was stable. He was eager to return home and was too lazy to communicate with others.

He directly tore open a spatial crack in front of him and entered it.

After breaking through to Ancestor Kong Xuan, Lin Jing's spatial attainment had been greatly improved. Even in the Ancient Immortal World with extremely high world strength, he could tear open space and perform a short-distance spatial movement.

"Send off Senior———" Watching Lin Jing's back as he left, Huang Zhixin took a deep breath and said: "Grandpa, the water in the cultivation world is deeper than we imagined."

"Whether it is this Senior Lin, or the senior who appeared beside Senior Hu, they all seem to be much, much stronger than the practitioners on the surface of Earth."

"Ancestor Kong Xuan stage... what kind of realm is this."

Just now the other party even said something about going to the starry sky? Has the other party cultivated to the point of being able to leave Earth...

That must be a very high realm.

"It might be a realm lost in history." Huang Qianyun had also gained knowledge this time. He urged: "Alright, I have a snake demon, you have a False Core, this is the opportunity for our grandfather and granddaughter. With these aids, we have hope for Foundation Establishment. When the cultivation base is high, we will naturally be able to see a wider world."

"However, this snake demon conflicts with my attributes, I have to find a way... to exchange it for other resources."

…………

Jiangnan region, Porcelain Capital.

A spatial crack opened in the sky, Lin Jing came out from it and finally returned to his hometown. He revealed a long-lost smile.

Before this, the Ice Soul Gu had already helped him find the location of his parents. Lin's father and Lin's mother, who were no longer doing business, moved directly into a villa to retire. This location was also found by the Lushan Recluse. The feng shui was good and suitable for recuperation.

When Lin Jing returned, he found that Lin Lan was also there. Under his divine sense, his parents were tossing their own planted tea in the courtyard, which was quite leisurely, while Lin Lan was sitting cross-legged and breathing in her own courtyard.

"Don't know if Lin Lan told my parents about my affairs."

Lin Jing didn't go to see his parents directly, so as not to scare them, but transmitted sound to Lin Lan:

"Hello?"

As soon as Lin Jing spoke, he fell silent himself. Once back on Earth, sound transmission was like making a phone call, and the memories deep in his bloodline were all activated. He started with "Hello."

"Lin Jing?" Lin Lan opened her eyes suddenly. Hearing this familiar voice, she looked around and asked: "Is it Lin Jing?"

"It's me." Lin Jing descended not far from Lin Lan. After seeing Lin Jing, Lin Lan took a deep breath and directly threw a talisman at him.

"Malice Talisman, go!"

She threw the talisman at Lin Jing, and then... nothing happened. Seeing this, Lin Lan heaved a sigh of relief.

"What is the meaning of this?"

"Master was worried that after you were resurrected by witchcraft, you would become a monster and attack acquaintances, just like a fierce ghost. This talisman can detect whether the other party has malice."

Lin Jing sighed: "I didn't die because of you, even if I became a fierce ghost, why would I take revenge on you."

"Better safe than sorry. Are you really Lin Jing?"

Lin Lan was still a bit unbelievable. During this period of time, she and the Lushan Recluse checked many ancient books about corpse transformation and found that there was indeed a spell that could make people resurrect in the form of a corpse, becoming a corpse cultivator.

But the problem was, Lin Jing was indeed completely cremated, not even a finger was left!

If Lin Jing returned in the form of a ghost, it seemed more reliable than some corpse cultivator!

Could it be that just using ashes... can also resurrect?

Is the corpse path spell so magical?

"Don't struggle." Lin Jing knew he should have told the truth. Although the truth sounded a bit bizarre, this lie indeed had many loopholes. He forgot about the cremation.

"Where is your master?"

"Master is in a manor not far away."

"Did you tell Mom and Dad about my affairs?"

"You didn't tell me to tell them first, and before confirming with my own eyes that you are 'Lin Jing', I didn't dare to tell them, lest they have too much emotional fluctuation."

Lin Jing nodded: "How else do you want to confirm? I'll cooperate with you. After confirming, you can go and communicate with Mom and Dad. Give them a preventive shot first, so I can appear."

"No need to confirm anymore." Lin Lan said: "At least, you have no malice. That Malice Talisman was asked from a Foundation Establishment stage holy monk by Master. Moreover, if you weren't Lin Jing, you wouldn't be so careful, fearing to scare them. Don't worry, I'll go and reveal it to them first. After their emotional fluctuations are stable, then you appear!"

Lin Lan's voice became lower and lower. After all, she grew up playing with Lin Jing since she was a child. After Lin Jing died, she was also sad for a long time. Now that Lin Jing could live, although it was in the form of a "corpse cultivator," but, so what.

Many people dislike corpses and fear ghosts, but very few people would dislike the corpse of their own relatives who they were with day and night, or fear encountering the ghost of their own relatives.

*Whoosh. *

Lin Lan stepped forward a few steps and hugged Lin Jing directly. Her eyes turned red instantly, her tone was sobbing, and she didn't speak, but Lin Jing could feel everything.

Sigh... Lin Jing sighed.

"I'm back. Don't worry, no one can bully you from now on. By the way, Lanlan, you're so big now, have you found a boyfriend?"

Lin Lan pushed Lin Jing away, wiped her tears, and said: "What boyfriend? I am a cultivator now, a third-layer Qi Condensation cultivator. Who can be worthy of me? Master said that my aptitude is not bad and I have hope for Foundation Establishment, so don't put my mind on irrelevant things."

"Wait, you... why can't I see through your cultivation?" Lin Lan was stunned: "Is it because corpse cultivators are relatively special?"

"Moreover, your state, although I can't see anything, but I heard Master say that you might be targeted by high-level people from Maoshan..."

Lin Jing said: "Don't worry, it won't happen. I have already registered with the Dao Alliance."

He estimated that Hu Yousong would give him this face.

"That's good!" Lin Lan's eyes lit up. Maoshan is also managed by the Dao Alliance. Since the Dao Alliance didn't say anything, Lin Jing's identity was naturally no problem.

"Then in that case, you should have no problem attending some important occasions, right?"

"Half a month later, there will be a practitioners' gathering in the Jiangnan region. If there is nothing else, Master originally planned to take me to participate."

"Is it a gathering for exchanging resources and exhibiting antiques?" Lin Jing asked.

"Hmm, maybe there will be exchanges and fighting?" Lin Lan said.

"Then we can go and see." Originally, Lin Jing had no interest in this kind of thing, but thinking that Earth even had mid-grade Immortal artifacts, he was immediately interested. Even if he didn't get Destiny this time, picking up a few more Immortal artifacts left over from ancient times would not be a wasted trip. I wonder... if he could find a top-grade Immortal artifact like the Fishing Old Man's fishing rod! ===== CHAPTER 556 =====
