Chapter Twenty-Three: Spiritual Bamboo!

Fulfill… one wish!

Upon hearing this, Pine Leaf Rat, who had been half-asleep and had little interest in the conversation, suddenly opened his eyes wide.

It has never been interested in the so-called Mechanism Art award, feeling that it is not as good as Spirit Stone.

But upon hearing Elder Yu say that, Pine Leaf Rat was immediately overjoyed.

Asking for a Storage Pouch shouldn’t be considered an unreasonable wish, right?

I don’t know if Lin Jing is interested in learning Mechanism Art, but Pine Leaf Rat has the urge to create his own mechanical beast.

【At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name, Taiwan Novel Network, which has a wide collection of books: ҉҉t҉҉k҉a҉҉n.҉҉c҉o҉m, to read anytime.】

Not for any other reason than to make a wish.

Elder Yu’s move can be described as the most powerful overt strategy.

Even Lin Jing, who is usually very stable, raised her head slightly and looked at Elder Yu seriously, as if trying to confirm whether what the other party said was true.

” Elder, is it really okay to have any reasonable wish?” he asked Dao after a moment’s hesitation.

“certainly.”

” Elder, we have indeed encountered some problems, but it’s within your purview and should be able to be resolved…”

What is it?

Just when Pine Leaf Rat thought Lin Jing was finally going to help it get a Storage Pouch, Lin Jing began to communicate with it telepathically.

Storage Pouches are readily available, but compared to Outer Sect… Elder, this is a rare opportunity to make a wish!

Pine Leaf Rat was taken aback.

Lin Jing clasped his hands in a fist and said, ” Elder, Disciple, and Pine Leaf Rat have never had a full meal since they joined the sect because of their huge appetites. They have never even experienced the cafeteria. If we can successfully create a mechanical beast, could we… eat for free in the Outer Sect cafeteria?”

Pine Leaf Rat: “!!!”

“Huh???” Elder Yu thought it was something serious. He laughed and stroked his beard. Dao: “Such a small matter is of course no problem. There will always be some leftover food in the canteen every day. The leftovers will be distributed to the Spirit Beast and Yao Beast raised by the Sect. It’s just that there are two more mouths for you.”

Elder Yu remarked that it was fortunate the Outer Sect Disciple was less knowledgeable and their demands were not excessive.

“Thank you, Elder! We’ll definitely focus wholeheartedly on studying Mechanism Art once we get back!”

As for Lin Jing’s wish, Pine Leaf Rat still wanted a Storage Pouch, but it couldn’t really find fault with it.

After all… they have Golden Spirit Rice to whet their appetite; one person’s daily portion is equivalent to that of ten people.

If there’s a place where you can eat very nutritious food for free, over time, the money saved on resources and food expenses could buy several Storage Pouches.

Pine Leaf Rat counted on his fingers, then silently looked at Elder Yu.

“Okay.” At this moment, Elder Yu had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem. He said, “But don’t force yourself. Mechanism Art — you still have to love it to go further.”

“Actually, as a beast tamer, it would be good for you to take mechanical arts as a secondary skill.”

” A mechanical beast is still a beast, unlike a contract which is like a friend or family member.” Pet beasts, though inanimate, can often perform more dangerous tasks for their Beast Masters, such as…testing formations and exploring perilous areas.

“You’ve been a member of the sect for some time now. I wonder if, besides beast taming, Dao, you’ve developed an interest in other skills?” Elder Yu… intended to gradually cultivate Lin Jing’s interest in Mechanism Art.

“Reporting to Elder…” Lin Jing honestly said, ” After Disciple, I want to learn Alchemy. I’ve been memorizing the effects of herbs and plants lately.”

“ Alchemy …” Elder Yu was speechless. How cliché! Alchemy and Artifact Refining again. Mechanism Art is much more interesting.

He said, ” Alchemy… is not easy. The main problem is that it’s tedious. Just learning the basics of Alchemy requires memorizing the effects of tens of thousands of herbs and plants.”

“Yes, it took me a long time just to remember all of this.” Lin Jing sighed, as if she had returned to the time in her previous life when she was preparing for the college entrance examination, postgraduate entrance examination, and civil service examination.

He suspects that his terminal illness is caused by the death of too many brain cells from handling these things.

He passed the exam, but he was ruined.

Elder Yu:?

” You’ve memorized all the contents of the Outer Sect’s Complete Collection of Plants and Trees?” Elder Yu wondered if he had misheard something.

Lin Jing joined the sect, and it hasn’t been that long. This vast amount of complex information… Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator can only be memorized little by little, while Jade Slip cannot be forced to absorb information, otherwise it would overwhelm the brain.

“Yes.” Lin Jing nodded. He did find that his memory had improved after Transmigration. This feeling was even more pronounced after he started cultivating immortality. With the help of the Spirit Nourishing Technique to relieve fatigue, memorizing texts was not difficult.

“What are the effects of Ye Linglong’s medicine?” Elder Yu asked.

“Relieving pain and regulating Qi is one of the core medicinal materials for refining Medicinal Pills for diseases caused by True Qi disorder.”

“Seven-star chrysanthemum”.

“Warming and dispelling cold, that’s the essence of refining…”

“ Spiritual bamboo juice!” he pointed to the pile of spiritual bamboo.

“Sedative and refreshing, it’s an auxiliary ingredient in the refining of Spirit Pill…”

Elder Yu was speechless. He had originally wanted to dissuade Lin Jing from learning Alchemy, but now he didn’t know what to say to Dao.

Okay, this Chang Sheng Body is so clever, learning Mechanism Art shouldn’t be a problem for him! If he can learn it, then he should learn more!

…

After Elder Yu threw the remaining spiritual bamboo to Lin Jing and the others, he left it alone.

They had to bear the consequences of their own actions. Lin Jing and Pine Leaf Rat painstakingly carried the many spiritual bamboos back to the courtyard.

Although they could hire a contracted cattle distributor for transport, they decided against it after considering the cost of hiring one.

Not long after, the spiritual bamboo was moved from the workshop to Lin Jing’s courtyard.

Looking at this pile of spiritual bamboo, Lin Jing stroked his chin. This time, in order to get a permanent free dining voucher for the Outer Sect cafeteria, he had to work hard to get started with Mechanism Art.

“Speaking of which,” Lin Jing looked at the clump of spiritual bamboo and suddenly remembered something.

“Back then, when we were in the bamboo forest, I saw a bunch of spiritual bamboo and wanted you to synthesize it using Glazed Immortal Eyes. However, just harvesting the spiritual bamboo consumed all your energy. “

“Now, are you interested in giving it a try? This thing can be considered a plant, right?”

“Squeak?” Pine Leaf Rat jumped off Lin Jing’s shoulder, looked at him, and asked, “Not making mechanical materials?”

” It’s just spiritual bamboo; we can just buy more when we run out,” Lin Jing said, adding that it wasn’t a rare resource.

Upon hearing this, Pine Leaf Rat spun around in place, thought about it, and agreed. He then used his Glazed Immortal Eyes to look at the pile of spiritual bamboo, wanting to see if it would have any effect…

suddenly!

Emerald light burst forth from its eyes.

… The Divine Power of Glazed Immortal Eyes instantly enveloped the ten emerald green spiritual bamboos within.

It seems possible!

In the next instant, the ten spiritual bamboos, enveloped in emerald light, slowly… merged into a small blue spiritual bamboo!

“Squeak…” At the same time, Pine Leaf Rat covered his eyes and let out a howl. He felt that this synthesis would consume far more pupil power than the synthesis of spirit rice and spirit bean. His eyes seemed to have been overused.

Despite the pain, Pine Leaf Rat urged Lin Jing to quickly check the effects of the blue spiritual bamboo.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing carefully picked up the blue spiritual bamboo. Learning from the experience with Black Bear Monster, he dared not use too much force.

“Hmm?” To everyone’s surprise, as soon as Lin Jing picked it up, clear juice flowed from one end of the spiritual bamboo.

This reminded Lin Jing of the question Elder Yu had asked him before.

“ Spiritual bamboo juice? Spiritual bamboo juice needs to be nourished by the rain and dew of heaven and earth, absorb the spiritual energy of the sun and moon, and be bathed in wind, rain, thunder and lightning in order to be born in growing spiritual bamboo. These felled spiritual bamboos have long lost the possibility of giving birth to spiritual bamboo juice. Could it be that the effect of blue spiritual bamboo is the natural birth of spiritual bamboo juice?”

After analyzing the situation, Lin Jing was surprised to find that the internal pressure of the spiritual bamboo was increasing. With a “boom,” a high-pressure water jet shot out from the bamboo, instantly blasting a large hole in the wall. This wasn’t spiritual bamboo juice… it was a high-pressure water pipe! The recoil from the water cannon shot from the bamboo propelled Lin Jing directly into the air, flying backward and crashing into the house, his body and hands trembling.
