Yellowstone discussed his conclusion with Zuo Men and both of them agreed. Lin Jin was dumbfounded as he watched from the side. But this was good too. Lin Jin didn't have to explain himself.
After all, Lin Jin hadn't fully understood the situation yet. Back when he wanted to retaliate against the shadow, Lin Jin had wanted to see if he could borrow the Breezy Monster's sword intent. Who knew he would actually succeed.
Spells that were similar to witchcraft were also a field that Lin Jin had never stepped foot into. It wasn't appropriate for him to discuss it now. If he made a mistake, he would become a laughing stock.
In Yellowstone and Zuo Men's eyes, Lin Jin was only able to survive this ordeal because of luck.
Of course, they knew that Lin Jin had a secret method to protect his psyche. But since it was a secret, they wouldn't ask about it. In the cultivation world, even fathers and brothers shouldn't ask about each other's spells. This was the rule.
Then, Yellowstone talked about his grudge with Divine Palm Immortal Qiu Bin. They used to be old acquaintances but after Qiu Bin ambushed Yellowstone during a treasure hunt, they became enemies.
Of course, Yellowstone didn't want to talk about the past. He only told Lin Jin that Divine Palm Immortal Qiu Bin was an extreme person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
"It's time. Let's hurry into the valley. The spirit pond might be open by now." Having said that, the three of them entered the valley together.
After traversing through the dense forest for a while, they arrived at a spacious area.
The plants here were even more unique. They were all species with abundant spirit energy. Lin Jin could even see floating spores that glistened in the air. It was a dreamy place.
Lin Jin didn't pay too much attention to the scenery because what caught his attention was a large piece of white jade before him.
The jade piece was huge, over a thousand feet long. It was curved and sunken, like a piece of a broken bowl. Half of it was buried deep in the ground, and the other half was exposed. If one didn't look closely, it would look like a white jade mountain standing there.
Around the jade piece were depressions of varying depths. There was a faint layer of water vapor lingering in the air. It was a mystical sight.
There were already many people around them in groups of three to five. These were immortals like them. They were here for the spirit pond's opening so they came in search of treasures.
Some were independent cultivators while others were disciples of immortal sects.
Lin Jin scanned the area. At a glance, there were at least fifty to sixty immortals. There were even some monsters with strong demonic auras among them.
However, to Lin Jin, they were just immortal beasts that could transform.
Just then, Lin Jin saw someone in the distance. It was Divine Palm Immortal Qiu Bin whom he met earlier. However, Ghost Eye Granny and the other male immortal were nowhere to be seen.
Qiu Bin and Lin Jin exchanged glances but were so frightened that they immediately averted their gazes.
Clearly, the previous incident had frightened Qiu Bin.
However, the other party coveted the benefits of the Spirit Pool of the Immortal Queens and was not willing to leave just like that.
Huang Shi also saw Qiu Bin. He glared at him, but didn't pay much attention to him. Right now, everyone was waiting for the spirit water to gather in the spirit pool. Before that, no one would jump out to cause trouble. If they did, they would definitely become the target of everyone.
"Our luck is pretty good. The spiritual water in the spiritual pond has yet to gather," Loose Cultivator Yellowstone said.
Using this opportunity, Lin Jin learned that the so-called spirit pool of the Queen of Immortals wasn't actually a pool of water. In other words, the pit below was just a decoration.
"The so-called spirit pool is the gathering of spiritual water. Spiritual water is the result of an immortal spell so it's obviously ethereal like an immortal. It's all suspended in the air. Once the spiritual water has gathered, everyone can use their abilities to obtain it," Loose Cultivator Yellowstone explained. Lin Jin finally understood.
The spirit pool was suspended in water!
Lin Jin hadn't been here for long so he wasn't familiar with everything here. If he hadn't met Zuo Men and Loose Cultivator Yellowstone, he would probably still be wandering in the forest or fighting with native beasts.
Now that he had the opportunity to participate in an immortal-level 'gathering', strictly speaking, it was a huge step forward for Lin Jin's cultivation. As for how he was going to obtain the spiritual water later, Lin Jin didn't ask. What if Loose Cultivator Yellowstone and the others didn't know?
At this moment, more and more water vapor was gathering at the bottom of the huge white jade piece. Even the water vapor in the middle was gathering more and more. If one looked closely, they could even see some small fish formed from water vapor swimming around the white jade piece.
Amazing indeed.
Lin Jin was a little nervous, so were Loose Cultivator Yellowstone and Zuo Men.
On the other hand, Han Xiong wasn't interested in this so he just sat there and looked around. There were other immortal beasts here but none of them were as big as him.
Han Xiong was the biggest.
At that moment, the water vapor around the white jade piece increased until it was so dense that it looked like it could turn into liquid at any moment.
Just then, an immortal dressed in a long robe suddenly floated up and saluted the others. "Dear immortals, I am Du Lifeng from the Immortal Physician Sect. Today's reopening of the Immortal Mother Spirit Pool is considered a rare event in the immortal realm. When the spirit pool appears later, please use your abilities to obtain the spiritual water. Don't get into a fight because of this and don't use your strength to bully the weak or rob others of their opportunities. After all, it hasn't been easy for us to recuperate since the great calamity. If we start a fight again, I'm afraid this final resting place will be gone."
Immortal Du's voice carried a spell as it reverberated through the air. His tone sounded like he was preaching.
Everyone here was a free-spirited itinerant immortal. Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to piss on this old man's words.
But strangely enough, no immortal raised any objections.
Noticing Lin Jin's surprise, Yellowstone whispered, "This Old Immortal Du has quite a reputation and he's the sect leader of the Immortal Physician Sect. Although he's only a pseudo immortal, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. The Immortal Physician Sect specializes in healing immortals so who can guarantee that they won't get sick? After all, it's common for cultivation to go awry. When that happens, we'll have to count on the Immortal Physician Sect. Hence, whether it's the sect's disciples or the itinerant immortals outside, everyone has to show this Old Immortal Du some respect. "
Lin Jin was enlightened.
Just then, another immortal floated out from the crowd and said in a clear voice, "Old Immortal Du is right. Our Five Elements Immortal Sect agrees. When we obtain the spiritual water later, everyone will rely on their own abilities. If anyone tries to snatch it, they'll be going against everyone else."
Lin Jin understood now. This was what it meant to set the rules first.
After all, there were too many wolves for too little meat. If a few people were to fight because of jealousy, it would surely turn into a chaotic battle. Who knows, they might even lose everything. Hence, no one was willing to see such a scene.
Those with greater influence would obviously set the rules. As long as the majority agreed, the minority wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
"Our Cloud Path Sect agrees too," a female immortal said solemnly.
"Xuan Dao Sect has no objections either!" a middle-aged man in a green robe said.
At the mention of the Cloud Path Sect and Xuan Dao Sect, Lin Jin immediately looked over. After all, disciples from these two immortal sects were among his guests.
