I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong

Chapter 391 354: The Stratagem of Master Tingyu

"Where are you going?"

Just as Tian Lin stepped towards a small hill, Master Tingyu suddenly asked.

Tian Lin said, "I'm naturally going to explore, or do you expect me to stay here forever?"

Master Tingyu quickly got up and grabbed Tian Lin's hand, saying, "When doing things, use your brain more, don't just act rashly! I don't quite understand, are you truly clever or just pretending to be?"

Tian Lin replied, "How do you define truly clever and pretending clever?"

"If you are truly clever, you should have played dumb in front of Lang Guan and them while secretly being sneaky.

If you are pretending to be clever, it means your words and actions are consistent, saying you're not afraid to die and then courting death."

Tian Lin said, "When I say something, I mean it. I'm known for following through. It's just you always doubting me, thinking I'm some kind of hypocritical person."

He broke free from Master Tingyu's hand and strode up the small hill.

The small hill was surrounded by Green Blood Vine and unknown bushes, the thorns on the bushes as tough as steel knives.

No matter how careful Tian Lin was, he still got his skin cut by the bush thorns.

After those thorns penetrated Tian Lin's skin, toxins invaded his body.

For an ordinary person, it would naturally be a disaster.

But such toxins, once in Tian Lin's body, didn't cause harm but rather had a Body Refinement effect.

Yet Tian Lin's goal now wasn't Body Refinement but to eat Spirit Fruits.

He continued to venture deeper, and his figure soon disappeared from Master Tingyu's sight.

"It seems he's truly a fool, but how did such a fool reach the late-stage Foundation Establishment at such a young age?"

He still didn't know Tian Lin's background, as before their sworn brotherhood, they were wary of each other, and Tian Lin had never mentioned the Daoist sect.

In a blink, most of the day passed. Just when Master Tingyu thought Tian Lin was dead and planned to go back to the mountain alone for the night, he saw Tian Lin rushing out from the bushes, looking like a bloody gourd.

"What happened?"

Master Tingyu was knocked down by Tian Lin with a thud.

Though falling was painful, he didn't care about the pain at the moment and began asking about Tian Lin's condition.

"I'm fine, don't be fooled by how I look, I wasn't really hurt!"

Tian Lin was lying!

Earlier, he had been pierced by several branches, with even his intestines spilling out.

But this mountain venture yielded significant gains.

Because his meridians were already of the Spirit Fruits due to his cultivation, he didn't fear overeating Spirit Fruits and bursting his body.

Thus, by

Tian Lin had no urgent desire to retrieve Spirit Stones from underground, so he didn't think deeply about the matter.

He believed that with a mortal's body, one couldn't easily obtain Spirit Stones from the earth.

If he were alone, he could use the Earth Escape Skill to retrieve the spirit mine below.

But the extracted spirit mine needed refining to become directly absorbable Spirit Stones, which was quite tedious—

"For now, there's only one path to take."

Master Tingyu mumbled for half the day, finally looking up to speak with Tian Lin.

Tian Lin, who was resting, was puzzled, giving Master Tingyu a glance, "You aren't suggesting Lang Guan and them to dig the mine, are you? How long would that take?"

If they had the spirit of the Foolish Old Man moving mountains, they might eventually mine the spirit mine.

But the reality was, their rations wouldn't last a month.

If left without food for a month, digging the mine would be out of the question, let alone survival becoming an issue.

"Lang Guan and them mining? With their cultivation?"

Master Tingyu shook his head disdainfully, then pointed towards the Demon Forest: "So many cultivators here, with them, how could the mine remain intact?"

Tian Lin turned his head, seeing under the night sky, tree after tree of Demon Trees, exuding a sinister aura.

But just as Master Tingyu said, Demon Trees weren't ordinary trees anymore, they could be considered cultivators.

If they could be utilized, let alone breaking through the mine. Even if it were to drill through the Earth's core—well, that demand was quite difficult to achieve.
