Chapter 1008: Malice from the Great World
As a Purifying Spirit God, Lin Jiansheng had a very strong sense of a person’s soul.
Ah Kong’s soul was a black fog. Only a Demon Fetus had a fog-shaped life form.
Lin Jiansheng never expected Kong Qing to reincarnate into the Cang Lang Continent and become Ah Kong.
As the Demon Fetus, Kong Qing had the clearest and most innocent pair of eyes in the world, while Ah Kong’s eyes were as black as an abyss. Although the color of their eyes was different, the way they looked at people was exactly the same.
“Kong Qing!”
He finally found him.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Jiansheng walked up the stairs and entered the ore base.
As soon as he entered, the owner handed him a hammer and a hoe. He pointed at the empty space that extended into the darkness in the room and said, “Dig up two ships of ores and your test will be completed.”
After Lin Jiansheng put away the Purifying Spirit Scepter, he held the hammer in his left hand and the hoe in his right as he asked the owner, “Sir, do I have to use spiritual power to dig ores?”
The owner looked at Lin Jiansheng as if he was looking at an idiot and asked, “If you don’t use spiritual power, what else can you use?”
Lin Jiansheng revealed a hesitant expression.
The owner raised his eyebrows and asked him, “What’s wrong?”
Lin Jiansheng held it in for a long time before saying, “I don’t have spiritual power.”
The owner was speechless.
Mr. Philand had never misjudged anyone. Since he had sent Lin Jiansheng to the ore base, he probably had potential. The owner rolled his eyes and said, “I don’t care. In short, you have to mine two ships full of ore before you can successfully register your identity card.”
Helpless, Lin Jiansheng could only carry the hoe and hammer and walk into the darkness.
After walking for a while, the world in front of him suddenly opened up.
The place he was standing at was no longer in the ore base, but a deep black sea. He was standing on a small boat, and there was a black mine on the shore. At this moment, there were two to three young people mining. Lin Jiansheng guessed that they were probably ascenders who had arrived earlier.
Noticing Lin Jiansheng’s arrival, the two ascenders turned around and gave him a cold look.
Perhaps they felt that Lin Jiansheng looked fierce and it was obvious that he wasn’t someone to be trifled with. He had the image of a typical gang leader. The two of them restrained their hostility a little and nodded at Lin Jiansheng before continuing to mine with their spiritual power.
Lin Jiansheng jumped off the boat and carried his tools up the mine. Then, he raised the hoe and dug down. With a clang, half of the hoe was broken, but there wasn’t a single mark on the ore.
Lin Jiansheng frowned and raised the hoe again. Then, he wrapped the hoe with his psychic power and dug again.
This time, the hoe broke from the root.
There was still no trace of any marks on the ore ground.
Lin Jiansheng frowned in frustration. He wanted to return home now.
He didn’t want to stay in this bullsh*t Great World anymore!
Weren’t they bullying him?
At this moment, the two ascenders finally couldn’t stand it anymore. They walked over and said to Lin Jiansheng, “This is a magic mine. It can only be mined by demonic creatures. Beast Tamers like us have to use our spiritual power to dig it up, and the efficiency is very slow. I’ve been digging here for half a year.”
The ascendant who spoke pointed at his boat and said, “We’ve only dug half a boat.”
Lin Jiansheng hurriedly asked, “Where are you guys from and how should I address you are? What is your cultivation level now?”
The Beast Tamer said, “I’m from the Moon God Continent. My name is Li Jianbing, and I’m at the peak of the Supreme Master Realm.”
The Moon God Continent seemed to be one of the Great Worlds.
Without waiting for Lin Jiansheng to ask, the young man standing beside the Supreme Master ascendant took the initiative to say, “I came to the Ancient Jue Continent and I’m called Gu Huan. I’m an early-stage Grand Master Beast Tamer. I’ve been digging here for a year.” Gu Huan pointed at his boat and said, “I just filled my first boat last month.”
Even a Grand Master had to mine here for a year to fill a boat. One could imagine how difficult digging this ore mine was.
Without spiritual power, Lin Jiansheng, who had even dug out a hoe, would probably die here before he could fill these two ships.
Lin Jiansheng felt despair.
However, Lin Jiansheng had never been a person who would admit defeat easily. He asked the two of them, “Mr. Li, Mr. Gu, I don’t have any spiritual power. I wonder if there are any other ways to mine?”
“What? You don’t have spiritual power?”
Li Jianbing and Gu Huan looked at Lin Jiansheng as if they were looking at a weirdo. “Without spiritual power, how did you ascend?”
Lin Jiansheng said, “I cultivate psychic power.”
“What is psychic power?” Li Jianbing and Gu Huan had never heard of such a strange type of energy.
Lin Jiansheng said mysteriously, “Psychic energy is a profound and invisible strange energy in nature. Those who cultivate psychic energy are Purifying Spirit Masters. Purifying Spirit Masters can use psychic energy to purify the undead, resentment, and demonic energy. They can also purify incomplete beast forms through Purifying Spirit Purification.”
Hearing this, even Li Jianbing and Gu Huan revealed shocked expressions. “There’s actually such a magical energy.”
Gu Huan stroked his chin and said, “This sounds a little similar to ghost cultivation.” At the mention of ghost cultivation, Gu Huan thought of the famous genius of the Divination Continent. He said, “On the Divination Continent, there was a Beast Tamer whose beast heart had been destroyed. Through other means, he formed his own sect and became a ghost cultivator. It’s said that he can refine ghosts and absorb ghost energy to become half a ghost and half a human. Your psychic power sounds a little similar to that of a ghost cultivator.”
Lin Jiansheng took it that Gu Huan was praising him. He said proudly, “Those with a powerful mind will most likely awaken their beast form and become a Beast Tamer. However, only the purest and kindest people have a chance of forming a Psychic Pearl and cultivating the Purifying Spirit Art. In my world, I was the boss of the Purifying Spirit Sect.”
No one who could ascend into the Great World was incompetent.
Gu Huan and the others were very curious about Lin Jiansheng’s background, so they asked him, “We’ve never heard of a cultivator like a Purifying Spirit Master. I wonder which world you’re from? I really want to go take a look.”
Lin Jiansheng raised his head and said, “Holy Spirit Continent.”
Gu Huan and Li Jianbing looked at each other and saw confusion and unfamiliarity in each other’s eyes.
Holy Spirit Continent?
They had never heard of it before. It seemed that he came from a peripheral world, and it was the kind of small world whose name had never even appeared in their world.
The two of them, who originally admired Lin Jiansheng, suddenly lost interest in him. A big shot who reigned supreme in a small world was nothing in the Great World.
Although Lin Jiansheng looked rough, he was very meticulous and observant. When he sensed the change in their attitude towards him, his attitude also cooled down a little.
It seemed that the people of peripheral worlds weren’t respected in the Great World.
“Without spiritual power, you won’t be able to dig up the ores here.” Lin Jianbing cupped his fists at Lin Jiansheng and said, “I have to continue mining. Mr. Lin, I still wish you the best of luck in completing the assessment as soon as possible.” Lin Jianbing knew very well that Lin Jiansheng would probably be unable to complete the test at all.
His time was precious. It would be a waste of time to deal with an ascendant who couldn’t even get his identity card.
With that, Lin Jianbing left.
