With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Since he had already found his target, there was no reason for him to hesitate any longer.

Lin Fan once again summoned out Igneel since he had no idea how far up the stream he would need to go. At the same time, there was nothing to lose from being able to survey the situation from above.

So he flew over the stream and looked for anything that seemed suspicious.

After flying for a bit, it didn't seem like there was anything that was there.

Though he did have Igneel fly slower than usual so he could carefully watch over the area.

Even then, it didn't seem like there was anything special about this place…

That was until Lin Fan finally saw something strange.

It wasn't something that was coming from the stream, but rather something that came from beside the stream.

The stream actually ran down from a mountain, so the source of the stream was actually a spring deep underground. That provided a source of clean water, which was what allowed this town to exist in the first place.

But no one really thought about why there was a source of clear water under the ground in the first place.

Perhaps they should have thought about that…

The strange thing that Lin Fan noticed was a cave that was by the stream on the mountain.

There was a strange sensation coming from it.

This was something that only a cultivator could sense, but there seemed to be waves of spiritual energy coming from the cave. It seemed that whatever was in the cave contained a large amount of spiritual energy.

If Lin Fan had to guess, this was most likely related to the source of the stream.

Whatever was happening down there would eventually lead to something being ejected into the stream.

That was why the ghosts were forming a net there.

They were there to catch whatever came out of the source and down the stream.

But with the waves of spiritual energy coming from this cave, it didn't seem like he would be able to send in the rats.

Just by testing it, he found that the waves were just too much for the rats that were sensitive to spiritual energy. They were just too powerful for the rats to endure, so it would actually hurt the rats if he were to send them into this cave to explore it.

So the only thing that he could do was go in himself and see what was releasing all of this spiritual energy.

If it was before, then he wouldn't have been as confident.

However, he at least had the confidence that someone with his level of cultivation had now that he was a sect master. He was certain that even if he couldn't beat the person that was inside, he would at least be able to run away.

That was why Lin Fan headed into the cave himself to see what the thing releasing the spiritual energy was.

There was a part of him that was looking forward to seeing what this thing was.

After all, the spiritual energy released made it clear that this wasn't a normal thing.

At the same time, the fact that there was only clean water released from the source meant that whatever it was should be related to water. So that meant that this was something that should be similar to the Clear Water Bead.

The Clear Water Bead was something that Lin Fan still depended on even now to train his pets.

However, there was a limit to the amount of Clear Water that the Clear Water Bead could produce. That meant that there was a limit to how much training the pets could receive from drinking the Clear Water.

If he were to find something that was like the Clear Water Bead, then he might be able to double the production of the Clear Water.

When that time came, the cultivation of his pets would surge and he would have much more trump cards in his hands.

With the looming threat of the Five Great Sects, there was nothing wrong with having more trump cards.

The more trump cards he had, the safer he would be when the time came.

Lin Fan slowly made his way through the cave. The deeper that he went into the cave, the stronger the spiritual energy waves were.

Eventually, he could feel the intense spiritual energy coming from in front of him that even seemed a bit too much for him. However, he could also tell that whatever he was looking for was right in front of him.

There was no way that it would be releasing this much spiritual energy if it wasn't right in front of him.

Lin Fan took a deep breath before putting an illusion array on himself.

This was the same illusion array that they had used before when they were at the Martial Might Sect, so he knew that it was effective.

Once that illusion array was on him, Lin Fan peeked into the cave in front of him.

He couldn't help being caught off guard the moment that he saw what was inside the cave.

There was a pool of water and at the very center of the pool, there was a flower that was growing there. The roots of the flower could be seen piercing through the pool and the pool was clear enough that they could be seen reaching the very bottom of the cave.

It was clear that whatever this flower was, it was the source of the spiritual energy and the source of the clean water.

It seemed that it was filtering the water that flowed into this underground cave with its roots and the water that remained was what flowed out into the stream.

However, it didn't seem like the pool of water contained any spiritual energy.

That was all absorbed by the flower that had its roots in the water.

It absorbed the impurities and the spiritual energy, leaving behind only clean water.

There was no telling where it released the impurities, but the flower itself didn't seem to have any impurities in it as far as Lin Fan could tell.

This flower was without a doubt something that was similar to the Clear Water Bead, but there was no telling what it was capable of just by looking at it like this.

However, that didn't mean that Lin Fan didn't want this flower.

There was no doubt that this flower was a special thing, so there were only benefits from taking it.

The problem was that the flower had attracted his attention and he forgot to pay attention to the surroundings. He had completely forgotten that he had been following someone else's tracks to this place…

So in the end, there was a sword that was placed at Lin Fan's throat as a voice said, "Who are you and why are you here?"

The moment that he felt the cold steel placed on his throat, Lin Fan snapped out of his daze and turned to look at the person that was holding the sword to his throat. Even though there was a sword at his throat, he didn't panic as he calmly turned to look at this person.

However, all he saw was a cloaked person standing there.

There was a moment of silence as both sides didn't do a thing…

Then all of a sudden, there was a notification…

[Ye Qing Huan is stunned by your presence. Affection has increased by 10.]

"Huh?" Lin Fan was confused when he saw this since he didn't understand why there would be a sudden increase in affection like this. However, when he reacted, he realized what this meant.

It meant that this person in front of him was the one giving him affection and the name Ye Qing Huan…

It was a familiar name!

It was a name that was very hard for him to forget since he had once dual cultivated with her.

But even before that, it was the name of someone from the Ye Family of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

She was the younger sister of Ye Tian Xie who was the sect master's disciple and the head disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect…

There was no way that Lin Fan wouldn't remember her!

After a long silence, Ye Qing Huan finally said, "What are you doing here?"

The way that she said this made it clear that she recognized him.

She didn't even try to hide her identity, she just directly asked him what he was doing here.

Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile before asking, "I can ask you the same thing."

In a colder voice that seemed more strict, she said, "I asked first."

The bitter smile became more bitter on Lin Fan's face when he heard this, but he could tell that she didn't want any argument.

Instead of angering her, he just said, "I'm here because of the Divine Blood Fruit."

He couldn't see Ye Qing Huan's expression because of her hood, so he didn't really know what she was thinking. But at the very least, it didn't seem like she was planning on doing anything to him as she brought the sword down.

It seemed that she wasn't planning on hurting him anymore.

After a moment of silence, she said, "Oh, so it was for that. I was wondering who would come, but it turned out that it was you."

Then looking around she asked, "Who else came with you?"

There was another bitter feeling that filled me when I heard her say this, but I still said, "No one else. It's just me."
