Chapter 24 Benefits of Lingyun, Speculations on the Desolated Cave

The system had a vague understanding of how to obtain Lingyun.

Qin Feng only came into contact with it through the Blood Bead. In other words, he had to adventure into that desolated cave! Upon thinking this, Qin Feng was stunned. Previously, he had also tried to look up information about the desolated cave, but there was little to no information. However, he noticed something strange.

Not many people would graduate from martial arts academies. Those who did were geniuses among geniuses. The rest would follow the government’s arrangements and live happily for the rest of their lives.

Most of the martial artists who graduated were never heard of again. Naturally, this phenomenon attracted Qin Feng’s attention. He wanted to continue investigating.

Although the government tried to conceal the truth, it was essentially impossible. Every year, top martial arts academies would secretly select a few students. No one knew what happened to them. Some would return while others did not. Those who returned refused to reveal anything. It was as if they had signed a confidentiality contract. There were only hints of fear.

What was the true purpose of martial arts academies? Clearly, those who were selected had undergone some dangerous missions. It was also obvious what had happened to those who did not return. Death.

This world was definitely dangerous. Since Qin Feng found out there were ferocious beasts, he guessed the government must have sent selected students to fight them. It was basically a war. What a joke! That should be the duties of soldiers!

Qin Feng was unconvinced, so he moved on to another conclusion. Other than the beasts, the only dangerous place he could think of was the desolated cave. Moreover, the government tried its best to hide it. All the signs were in line. Top martial arts academies were the key to entering that cave!

If Qin Feng wanted to obtain more spirit essences, he had to pass the assessment for Jiangnan University!

Qin Feng fell into deep thoughts again. Previously, he only wanted to enter this academy for money. Now, it was actually a crucial part of his plan.

One main concern popped up in his mind. If he entered a martial arts academy, there was a chance that he might have to give up his old house. Although he could teleport back once a day, it was still not that convenient. Qin Feng knew his talent was limited. Even with better teachers provided by the academy, he would not be able to break through. In short, he needed this old house to be successful.

The system suddenly spoke as if it had heard Qin Feng’s worries.

“Host, your first conclusion was correct. However, don’t worry about not being able to return to this old house. This problem has already been solved after I have absorbed the previous spiritual essence!”

Qin Feng was stunned. This system may be talkative, but it was also reliable.

The system continued, “There was a huge amount of spiritual essence and I’ve only managed to absorb a small amount. Nonetheless, it’s enough. The functions that would take a year to unlock had been reduced to three months. Some facilities were also already activated!”

As if it was worried Qin Feng still did not understand, the system deliberately sent him a message. The details about the upgrade were listed.

Qin Feng closed his eyes and thought to himself. After a long time, he finally snapped back into reality and exclaimed excitedly, “From now on, I can carry this old mansion with me?!”

“That’s right.”

The system could now temporarily seal the old mansion in Qin Feng’s mind! He could enter and exit his house as he pleased! It was really handy! His previous concern was dispelled.

This old mansion was full of pleasant surprises. Now, Qin Feng no longer had to stay at home alone. Humans were social creatures. Even introverts would eventually need some companionship.

With that being said, Qin Feng was elated. He would no longer have to worry about the old house in any condition.
