I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 217 - 181: Earning Spirit Stones to Repay Debt

Under the water, large amounts of Soul Replenishing Powder adhered to Tian Lin's body, ravaging it, but was quickly assimilated by his Spiritual Sense.

In this southern area, the quantity of Soul Replenishing Powder had reached a staggering level, yet not a single fish was seen.

Tian Lin did not know what this Soul Replenishing Powder was, but marveled at its astonishing lethality.

If this goes on, Immortal Sinking Pond will eventually become a 'dead sea'. By then, not to mention anyone who falls into the water, even the original marine life would be extinct, and crossing the sea on thousand-year-old wood boats would no longer be possible.

Not long after Tian Lin fell into the water, his entire body was fully exposed.

To prevent the Soul Replenishing Powder from destroying his Storage Bag, Tian Lin summoned a wooden boat far out at sea and placed the Storage Bag upon it.

He sat in meditation in the sea for several days, as if he was isolated from the world.

The next morning, Tian Lin heard someone calling out his assumed name from under the sea.

At first, he was puzzled, followed by a jolt of shock.

Taking the Soul Replenishing Powder did indeed make him feel that his Spiritual Sense was rapidly strengthening, so his senses were now far better than before.

However, what shocked him was that he was currently submerged in Immortal Sinking Pond, and theoretically, his senses should have been shielded by the Pond. How could he still hear the voices from more than ten feet away above his head?

"The 'curse' of Immortal Sinking Pond is fading!"

"However, even if the 'curse' of Immortal Sinking Pond fades away, this place will still be a land of death."

Tian Lin heard the fading calls above and then emerged from the water.

At this moment, he had reverted to his original appearance and was no longer an old man burdened by the vicissitudes of time.

As soon as Tian Lin changed into his clothes, a scream echoed through the fog.

Tian Lin frowned slightly and struck a palm behind him.

A burst of waves exploded on the surface of the water, propelling the wooden boat under Tian Lin's feet towards the dense fog.

Just as Tian Lin reached the area, he saw a fat man on a dark awning boat, pressing down on Yu'er's shoulders and forcing her to kneel at the bow.

Cui'er, dressed in green, had already been struck by a sword at this point and looked to be on her last breath.

Tian Lin had never seen this fat man before and didn't know why he had suddenly attacked Yu'er and Cui'er.

As Tian Lin's boat approached, the fat man frowned and looked at him, saying, "I'm handling matters here. If you know what's good for you, scram now."

Tian Lin was taken aback and looked at his clothes, only then he remembered that the clothes given to him by the Tong Family had been ruined by the Soul Replenishing Powder in the sea.

The clothes he was wearing now were a set he brought from the Yulong Continent.

They looked somewhat luxurious, but without gold threads or jade beads, one might mistake him for a mere Qi Refining cultivator.

Clearly, Cui'er and Yu'er on the boat also thought Tian Lin was just a Qi Refiner. Neither of them held any hope for Tian Lin. Only Yu'er, clenching her teeth, said to Tian Lin on the boat:

"Please, young master, leave quickly. When you speak to the Tong Family, say that Cui'er and Yu'er were killed by the eminent Master Wubian."

As soon as Yu'er finished speaking, the fat man slapped her back, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood and slump to the ground.

After injuring Yu'er, the fat man turned his gaze back to Tian Lin and smiled, "Kid, you think you can escape?"

Once the fat man finished speaking, he leaped onto the bow of Tian Lin's boat and reached for Tian Lin's shoulder.

Just as his claws were about to touch Tian Lin's shoulder, Tian Lin caught the fat man's hand and kicked him directly into the water.

The fat man did not use his full strength when he attacked Tian Lin, but Tian Lin showed no mercy in his counterattack.

Caught off guard, the fat man plunged into Immortal Sinking Pond.

He panicked and flailed on the surface, his True Qi releasing, allowing him to surge up from the Pond like a fly.

Watching the fat man soar out of the water like a great roc, Tian Lin sighed, "The curse of Immortal Sinking Pond is indeed gone!"

After he spoke, the fat man flew back onto his awning boat.

Standing on the awning boat, a mix of shock and anger, the fat man looked at Tian Lin across him, "Who exactly are you? Why do you hide and obscure your true self?"

"What shadow am I hiding, what form am I concealing? I'd like to ask you, we do not know each other and I had no intention of interfering with your killing, why did you attack me?"

Hearing this, the fat man glanced at Yu'er and Cui'er on the boat.

After a moment of thought, he saluted Tian Lin with a fist and said, "I apologize for my shortsightedness. Upon seeing the plain clothes you wear, I mistook you for a junior of a Qi Refining cultivator."

"The misunderstanding has been cleared, please proceed ahead, my fellow daoist. Next time, I, Wubian, will personally apologize to you."

Hearing this, Tian Lin laughed and said, "Since you know you have made a mistake, why not apologize now instead of mentioning a next time?"

"What do you mean?"

"I see that the treasured garment you're wearing is quite good, and it happens to be that I am in need of one. How about you let me have the treasured garment you're wearing?"

Upon hearing this, the Wubian Abbot aboard the boat flew into a rage and, without further ado, finally summoned his flying sword and stabbed fiercely towards Tian Lin.

With a thought, Tian Lin stared into the eyes of Wubian Abbot and suddenly activated the 'Heart Inquiry Skill.'

Wubian Abbot had not expected Tian Lin to possess the method for a psychic attack, let alone that Tian Lin, in addition to being extremely formidable in close combat, would possess such a powerful consciousness.

He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, staggering back two or three steps.

While his Sea of Consciousness suffered heavy damage, the flying sword he controlled with his spiritual sense also immediately lost control.

With a thought, Tian Lin, relying on his Sword Intent, took control of Wubian Abbot's flying sword into his hand.

By the time Wubian Abbot raised his head again, Tian Lin had wiped his hand over the flying sword, and the mark left by Wubian Abbot on the sword was instantly erased.

One could see Wubian Abbot spitting out a mouthful of blood and looking at Tian Lin in shock.

Not just him, but Yu'er and Cui'er on the bow of the boat also appeared unsure and apprehensive.

Thinking it over, Wubian Abbot asked respectfully, "Could it be that sir is Zhai Xingzi from the Wendaos Sect?"

Tian Lin frowned; he did not know Zhai Xingzi, but he was certainly not unfamiliar with the words 'Wendaos Sect.'

He had been diligently cultivating in the sea these past few days and was unaware of any changes that had occurred onshore.

From what the fat man implied, it seemed a cultivator named Zhai Xingzi from the Wendaos Sect had appeared in Pingyang City.

"How do you figure I am Zhai Xingzi?"

After Tian Lin said this, his gaze fixed on Wubian Abbot.

Wubian Abbot said, "I estimate, based on my fellow daoist's age, that you are probably only sixteen or seventeen years old. To have the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Realm at such an age, one must surely be a scion of a great family—

I observe that your spiritual sense is extremely strong, likely unmatched by even mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators. Thus, at such an age to have the cultivation of a mid-stage Foundation Establishment, you are most likely a disciple of the immortal gate."

The more he spoke, the more confident he became in his judgment, concluding firmly, "Amongst the disciples of the various immortal gates who have come to Pingyang City, I have met Jian Jue, Fairy Mei, and the rest, except I have never met Brother Zhai Xingzi."

With that said, Wubian Abbot bowed respectfully, "I have offended you just now, and I am willing to inflict the penalty on myself and become your Sword Slave."

His words were sincere and didn't seem to be a lie.

Meanwhile, Cui'er on the deck sneered with a trace of strength as she mocked,

"There's no such good fortune in this world. Do you think becoming a sword servant for an immortal disciple is something you can just decide to do?"

When a Foundation Establishment Cultivator speaks, how can a Qi Refining cultivator presume to be so reckless?

But at this moment, Wubian Abbot suppressed his anger, not wanting to leave a brutal and rebellious impression on Tian Lin.

After reflecting, Tian Lin said, "I am not Zhai Xingzi, nor do I intend to take you as a Sword Slave. What I want now is the clothes on your body."

As he finished speaking, he had already boarded the fat man's dark-clothed boat.

The fat man's face changed slightly, and as Tian Lin approached, he instinctively backed towards the stern of the boat.

"Who exactly are you, sir? If it's just for a treasured garment, I will take it off for you!"

The fat man made a motion to disrobe, and Tian Lin clapped his hands to summon his own flying sword, looking at the fat man and saying, "There's no need for you to do it, sir; I'll take it off myself!"

The fat man knew that Tian Lin would not spare him and promptly leaped into the air, summoning another flying sword from his Storage Bag intending to escape via Sword Control.

Having been seriously injured twice by Tian Lin, he inevitably wobbled when controlling the sword.

Just as he ascended two zhang into the air, Tian Lin's flying sword had already beheaded him.

The fat man's head rolled away, while the headless body continued to fly skewed on the sword for over half a li.

As his body and flying sword fell, Tian Lin's spiritual sense had already reached beyond a li, and with a wave of his hand, he drew both the sword and the body back to the boat.

He killed swiftly and decisively, unlike someone at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Yu'er and Cui'er, deducing that Tian Lin's cultivation and background were extraordinary, Yu'er immediately knelt down to express gratitude to Tian Lin, "Thank you, senior, for saving our lives."

Tian Lin was stripping off the fat man's coat while also removing his Storage Bag.

Hearing Yu'er's words, he couldn't help but say, "This fat man wanted to become my Sword Slave as an apology, what about you? Would you be my sword holder to repay the debt for saving your lives?"

Yu'er was startled and glanced at Cui'er.

Cui'er seemed somewhat tempted, but Yu'er quickly said,

"We sisters were already given to my master by the Tong Family; we are already my master's sword holders. A loyal servant does not serve two masters—

If the senior does not mind, all we can offer are our flying swords and some fragments of low-grade Spirit Stones as tokens of appreciation."

Tian Lin accepted the Brocade Handkerchief and flying sword that she handed over; the brocade was what she had given to Yu'er.

Within the handkerchief, there were some Spirit Rice and Low-Grade Spirit Stones—nothing of great value.

Tian Lin took the things Yu'er handed him and threw the fat man's looted Storage Bag in front of Yu'er:

"The Spirit Stones you gave are not enough to cover your sisters' lives—if you refuse to be my sword holder, then earn Spirit Stones to repay your debt.

Sell everything inside this Storage Bag and within the bag itself, and when it's time, I will come to collect the Spirit Stones from you."
