Chapter 310: Chapter 12 The Secret of Immortal Crossing Island

After spending five days on the small island, Lin Jing had gotten quite familiar with the two beasts.

He had finally figured out their personalities.

Little Jin and Little Hei, the two beasts, couldn’t really be treated as Nascent Soul Demonic Beasts; although their strength was extraordinary, their intelligence was only about the same as Little Sparrow’s.

Sometimes they were even less clever than Little Sparrow.

And furthermore.

They couldn’t speak, and often acted like small children, especially after Lin Jing had once used Divine Phoenix feathers to scare them.

During the time they spent with Lin Jing, after gradually getting used to him and realizing he posed no threat, they often played pranks on him.

This left Lin Jing quite speechless.

He wanted to fight, but he couldn’t beat them…

He could only outsmart the two beasts with his intelligence, keeping himself from being at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, the two beasts followed the old ape’s orders and did not harm him.

It was not until the fifth day that the old ape returned.

However, the Cultivation Technique the old ape handed to Lin Jing left him stunned.

Because the technique he brought back was the Immortal Five Elements Technique.

The old ape held the technique and handed it to Lin Jing.

Seeing Lin Jing just standing there in a daze, it reminded him,

“Take it, if you want to cultivate the Five Elements Spirit Tree, you must practice this Immortal Five Elements Technique.”

Lin Jing couldn’t help feeling a bit embarrassed, and then he spoke to the old ape,

“Senior Ape…”

“I don’t mean to hide it from senior, but the technique I am practicing is exactly this Immortal Five Elements Technique.”

As the words left Lin Jing’s mouth, the old ape was also stunned, while behind him, Little Jin and Little Hei were squatting quietly on the ground, watching the two of them.

“……” The old ape was momentarily at a loss for words.

It never expected Lin Jing was practicing the Immortal Five Elements Technique, so it had gone to the trouble of finding this very technique.

If it had known earlier, it wouldn’t have had to go through so much effort.

Moreover, to exchange for this technique, it had to offer up many valuable heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

Originally, it only wanted the first few volumes.

But that old friend it had known for many years insisted on trading the whole set.

For the sake of the Five Elements Spirit Fruits, the old ape had no choice but to grit its teeth and agree.

For this, it paid much more than it wanted to in spirit plants and spirit fruits, which pained it greatly.

After a long while.

The old ape spoke again to Lin Jing,

“Let me see your technique then”

Lin Jing then took the Immortal Five Elements Technique out of his Storage Bag and handed it to the old ape.

After receiving the Immortal Five Elements Technique, the old ape started to flip through it…

Quite some time passed.

The old ape finished reviewing and handed Lin Jing’s Immortal Five Elements Technique back to him.

Then it reached out its hand and grabbed Lin Jing’s wrist, saying to him,

“Run the technique so I can see it.”

Lin Jing nodded, calmed himself down, and began running the Immortal Five Elements Technique right away.

“All right, stop.”

After a short while, the old ape let go of Lin Jing’s wrist and then spoke,

“I didn’t expect you to be a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root.”

“Yes, senior…” Lin Jing said.

The old ape nodded, then continued,

“A Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root is a perfect match for practicing this Immortal Five Elements Technique, and if you were to hasten the ripening of the Five Elements Spirit Fruits, it would be even faster.”

“Originally, I thought it would take you at least a few years,” he said contently as he looked at Lin Jing, and then he added, “Now it seems, in less than a year, you could fully mature the Five Elements Spirit Fruits.”

After speaking, he looked at Lin Jing with satisfaction and said:

“Come, let me teach you how to do it.”

“Okay…” Lin Jing nodded.

Then, the old ape led Lin Jing to the side of the Five Elements Spirit Tree.

Next, the old ape waved his hand, and a Formation appeared out of thin air beside the Five Elements Spirit Tree.

After that, he spoke to Lin Jing:

“You don’t have to do much, just cultivate within this Formation, and at the same time, infuse the Spiritual Power you cultivate into this Formation.”

“This Formation is connected to the Five Elements Spirit Tree. I need you to use the Spiritual Power cultivated by the Immortal Five Elements Technique to be absorbed by the tree, and then form a cycle…”

“This way, it could foster the growth of the Five Elements Spirit Tree.”

“Senior Ape, why must it be the Immortal Five Elements Technique? Won’t other cultivation techniques work?” Lin Jing looked at the Five Elements Spirit Tree and voiced his doubt.

“Of course…” said the old ape.

“The Spiritual Power cultivated through the Immortal Five Elements Technique is the most balanced. The Spiritual Power needed by the Five Elements Spirit Tree also requires a balance of five attributes, which perfectly matches the nature of the Immortal Five Elements Technique.”

“If other cultivation techniques were used, the absorption of the five attributes would not be balanced, which could potentially hinder the growth of the Five Elements Spirit Tree.”

“Even worse, it could lead to an imbalance of the five elements in the tree, resulting in its direct death.”

With the old ape’s explanation, Lin Jing understood as well.

Afterward.

Following the old ape’s signal, Lin Jing stepped into the Formation.

At that moment, the old ape continued:

“Oh, I forgot to tell you…”

“When you cultivate here for a certain period, the Spiritual Power of the Formation will reach an overflow state. If it reaches that state, you can come out and take a break.”

“Of course, you can also use the Spiritual Power here to nourish your body.”

“You have a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root. Using the Spiritual Power surrounding the Five Elements Spirit Tree to nourish your body will greatly benefit you in the future.”

Lin Jing nodded, then sat down cross-legged beside the Five Elements Spirit Tree and began to cultivate.

……

Two months swiftly passed…

Lin Jing also did not stop cultivating during these two months.

Of course, he occasionally took breaks or played with Little Gold and Little Black.

Or listened to the tales of Immortal Crossing Island narrated by Senior Ape.

In front of Senior Ape, Little Gold and Little Black were exceedingly well-behaved.

However, when Senior Ape went out and they faced Lin Jing alone, they were still very mischievous, always trying to tease Lin Jing, like little children.

Later, according to what Senior Ape said…

If one were to really consider it, they were indeed like little children because on Immortal Crossing Island, everyone had their own territory, and the two beasts, besides hunting in the outer areas of Immortal Crossing Island, rarely went elsewhere.

Here, they all obeyed Senior Ape’s words, as he had taken care of them from a young age.

As for their parents, they were the losers of the territorial competition on Immortal Crossing Island…

After all, Immortal Crossing Island was not as peaceful as it appeared to Lin Jing.

The competition on the island was also incredibly fierce.

It was from Senior Ape that Lin Jing learned about some of the conditions on Immortal Crossing Island.

Immortal Crossing Island was extremely unique.

Its location was elusive, always drifting in the Demonic Monster Sea region.

Only once every ten thousand years would Immortal Crossing Island appear in the central region of the Demonic Monster Sea, staying there for a period of time.

Only then could people ascend the island and seek opportunities on it.

Moreover, according to the rumors, there were secrets to becoming an immortal in the very center of Immortal Crossing Island.

Therefore, each time Immortal Crossing Island appeared, countless Human Cultivators and Demon Cultivators would come to the island, vainly trying to obtain the secret to immortality.
