Chapter 130 Ding Mo Joins
Lin Zhifeng was the first in their group of brothers to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
After he emerged from seclusion, he went to each of his brothers' homes to inquire about their situations. He was told that they had all gone into seclusion shortly after him to begin their attempts to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
However, due to factors such as individual aptitude and luck, no one other than Lin Zhifeng has yet successfully broken through.
Lin Zhifeng had anticipated this outcome, and now that he's here to confirm it, he's found that his guess was indeed correct.
If you want to travel to other cities, it's best to go with some like-minded friends. This applies to both safety and entertainment.
Since everyone needs more time, Lin Zhifeng has no choice but to wait patiently for a few more years.
During Lin Zhifeng's seclusion, the queen bee in the backyard led her people to diligently produce bee products.
The loyal Xiao Qingfeng helped collect them all, and now there are enough to open a bee product store.
However, Lin Zhifeng does not plan to sell it for the time being.
He planned to keep some of these bee products as gifts or for his own use. He would save most of them to see if he could exchange them for something better when he traveled to other cities.
Just like the system said before, the really good things can't be bought with spirit stones; they have to be bartered.
Although Lingfeng honey is not very valuable, royal jelly is a good product and should be able to be used to exchange for some rarer materials.
Over the past few years, the Treasure-Hunting Mouse and the Support Mouse have stayed together in the Sword Sect. The two little ones love each other and have adapted to the Sword Sect, so they don't feel bored.
As for Amber, he was also left to his own devices during this period. After exploring all the Sword Sect's territory, he often sneaked off to play down the mountain.
Lin Zhifeng thought it would get bored and take the opportunity to leave, but he found that it didn't leave at all.
Upon seeing Lin Zhifeng, Amber immediately insisted that he take her to see other places.
Lin Zhifeng smiled and agreed, but said, "Okay, but not now. We have to wait for the others."
Amber was inevitably a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything more.
These past few days, he has been transformed into a "dragon bracelet," coiled around Lin Zhifeng's wrist. Wherever Lin Zhifeng goes, he follows.
Lin Zhifeng also took some time to visit Ding Mo.
Ding Mo had only recently emerged from seclusion.
Ding Mo is currently at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. If he were given a Refining Void Pill now, he could probably break through to the Refining Void Realm immediately.
Unfortunately, the materials for the Refining Void Pill are hard to come by, and alchemists who can refine it are also hard to find.
Lin Zhifeng came this time mainly to give him the Time Sand.
We had agreed in the Eternal Night Forest that we would give him some Time Sand after we returned to the sect.
Even after returning to his sect for so long, Ding Mo still hasn't come to ask him for it.
Lin Zhifeng had initially thought that he himself might have obtained the Sand of Time. But after asking, he realized that was not the case.
Lin Zhifeng scolded, "Senior Brother Ding (haha, now we're all at the same cultivation level, Lin Zhifeng has increased a generation), you're being too formal. You promised to come find me, why didn't you come?"
Ding Mo said, "The main ingredients of the Refining Void Pill are very precious. I can't accept the reward without having done any work for it, can I?"
Lin Zhifeng said, "Why should we brothers be so fussy? Every time we go out with you, you're the one who protects us. We haven't paid any protection money, have we? Listen to me, don't be polite with me, just accept it."
After saying that, fearing that Ding Mo might not accept it, she comforted him, saying, "I still have a large piece of that time sand, which is enough for my needs. Senior brother, there's no need to feel burdened; just accept it."
Seeing this, Ding Mo thanked him and accepted the Time Sand.
Ding Mo took the Time Sand, but didn't immediately give him spirit stones or anything else. What would that make him seem? It would be as if he was rushing to sever ties, as if he didn't want to owe anyone anything. That would be too cold-hearted.
Lin Zhifeng was also very happy to see that he accepted it so readily.
Friends help each other, keep in touch, and even owe each other things; this is how bonds are strengthened and relationships last longer.
Lin Zhifeng was about to leave after delivering the goods when Ding Mo stopped him.
"I heard from Master that you plan to go out and gain experience?" Ding Mo asked.
Lin Zhifeng planned to travel to a big city, inquire about his father Lin Yuan, and also find some good stuff.
Since he was going to take Lin Jun and his brothers with him, he naturally needed to inform the nine elders in advance.
Who knew the elder would be so quick to tell his disciple?
Lin Zhifeng said, "I want to visit the big cities where alchemists gather. Although I have just broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, I should start preparing the materials for refining Void Pills. As the old saying goes, 'prepare for a rainy day,' and that's what I mean."
"Furthermore, alchemists have a wider network of connections and more resources, so they are probably better informed than other cultivators. All these years have passed, and my father has been missing. As his son, I can't just sit idly by and wait like this."
After saying that, he smiled and asked Ding Mo, "Since you asked about this, senior brother, are you willing to go with us?"
Ding Mo said, “That’s exactly what I was thinking. Don’t laugh at me, but even with all my savings over the years, plus the gifts from my master, I still haven’t gathered all the main ingredients for the Refining Void Pill. Even if I did, I would need to find a high-level alchemist to help me refine it. So, since we have the same goal, we can travel together.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhifeng thought to himself: This is great! I've gotten a genius bodyguard with off-the-charts combat skills for free.
Lin Zhifeng quickly smiled and said, "That would be wonderful. We were just worried about our safety on this trip. If Senior Brother Ding comes along, that would be perfect."
Ding Mo said, "In that case, send me a message before you set off."
Lin Zhifeng said, "No rush, they won't be out for a year or two. I'm just afraid that someone will fail to break through this time, and then we won't be able to gather everyone."
Lin Zhifeng felt a little sad after speaking, just like when he played a holographic game in his original world: some friends gradually couldn't keep up with his leveling speed, and then they drifted apart and eventually lost contact. He had finally gotten along so well with Lin Jun and the others, and the thought that one day he would be all alone made Lin Zhifeng feel melancholy.
Ding Mo knew what he was thinking, but he didn't know how to persuade people, so he could only pat him on the shoulder and say, "I should always be here, maybe even further than you."
Lin Zhifeng: "..."
Very good! Lin Zhifeng is no longer sad.
When it comes to "Versailles", it has to be Ding Mo, the number one genius of your Sword Sect!
"I understand, Senior Brother Ding. Fate brings people together and then separates them. Why should I be sad about such trivial things? I should just cherish the present and enjoy the happy times we can spend together. Who knows what the future holds? Let's leave that to worry about later!"
Ding Mo smiled and said, "That's exactly right!"
