I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 13 - Earth Drilling Technique



"Look, what is that guy doing? I saw him walking around but pick nothing. Wasn't he worried about running out of time?"

"Who knows, maybe he's confused about which martial art he should choose. After all, this library is too big, and the martial arts are too many, but he can only choose one. That's ironic!"

"Ha-ha, I know, right? When I first came here, I was overwhelmed by the number of martial arts here. In the end, it took me three days to choose a martial art that suited me."

"You took three days? That's fast! It took me a whole week just to find a martial skill called Stone Hammer Fist Technique. However, when I found out that it was just a basic fist technique, I almost slammed it to the ground."

"Three days? a week? Brothers, you are lucky. It took me a month until I found a martial art that I fancied. However, after two years had passed, I still could not master it into Small Accomplishment, and the sect asked me to replace it with new martial art. At that time, I was a little traumatized in choosing a martial art because I was afraid that I would waste another two years practising a martial art that did not suit me. I asked Elder Yi to pick one for me, and then he gave me a martial skill called Earth Drilling Technique."

Elder Yi was the name of the white-robed elder in charge of the Myriad Books Library.

Many disciples already knew his name. Legend has it that Elder Yi is a Nascent Soul expert, but that is only a legend because no one has proven it.

Although Elder Yi did not seem like the type to chat with disciples, he was kind enough to advise disciples struggling in choosing a martial art.

In short, he is a responsible elder, and every disciples respects him very much.

"Earth Drilling Technique? I've never heard of that martial skill..." One of the listeners was puzzled.

"Earth Drilling Technique is the lesser version of the Earth Escape Technique. Elder Yi said this martial skill is the easiest martial skill to master; To master it, I just need to dig the soil every day. In the end, I was able to master it in half a year. I was so proud of my achievements back then, but now I just realized that I was so stupid."

"..."

"Brother, since your martial skill was the lesser version of the Earth Escape Technique, can it help you escape from the danger?"

After all, the Earth Escape Technique was a well-known martial skill in the art of escape.

There is hardly anyone who does not know that. Unfortunately, this technique is challenging to master, and only a few people can do it.

"Nah, it can only make me hide in the ground for a period of time."

"..."

For a moment, no one was able to say anything. After all, this guy is too pitiful.

He spent half a year digging the ground and as a result he could only hide for a short time. Even moles are better than him.

In the end, the crowd was scattered and returned to their respective businesses to choose martial arts.

***

"As expected, one hour was not enough. If only I had another hour..."

"Maybe I should continue tomorrow? After all, the elder never said that I could only visit here once."

With that, Qin Yi decided to end his extraction for today and resume on the next day.

He swallowed too much today, and it's time to digest it slowly.

Besides, Qin Yi was not in a hurry. From what he could see from the various treasures he had obtained today, he could conclude that the Extraction System was simply amazing.

In just one day, he was able to harvest that much treasure. It is inconceivable!

As he had expected, the moment he extracted the Deacon in the Novices' Quarter, he could already see the bright prospects of the system and his future.

With the help of the system, Qin Yi did not have to worry about struggling over resources to improve his cultivation like other fellow disciples.

As long as there is a target, there must be a resource.

That is the concept of the system.

However, apart from diligently extracting, there was one thing Qin Yi had to pay attention to, which was to be careful.

As long as he stayed safe and did not get into trouble on purpose, the road of his cultivation would be smooth and easy.

Qin Yi returned to where the white-robed elder was and said, "Elder, I still can not find a martial art that suits me. May I come here again tomorrow?"

"You may, but the duration is still the same." The white-robed elder replied.

"This junior will remember it."

Qin Yi cupped his fists before he exited the Myriad Books Library.

He had no other schedule after visiting the Myriad Books Library. Therefore, he went straight back to his cave and locked himself inside.

After Qin Yi sat cross-legged on the bed, he didn't immediately check the treasure he got today. He took out a bun and a bowl of soup from the system storage instead.

It's said that immortals do not need to eat.

β€”β€”But, Qin Yi is not immortal, and he still is not immune to hunger.

Even though he was already able to absorb spiritual energy into his body, it was not to the extent that he could elevate his hunger with it.

Thus, Qin Yi could only rely on ordinary food to fill his stomach.

When Qin Yi was still in the Novices' Quarter, he and his fellow novice disciples often made foods such as buns, soup, and other simple and edible foods.

Although the system prefers to extract objects containing spiritual energy rather than mundane objects, it still puts the host's command first.

If Qin Yi asks to extract a mundane object, then the system can only follow his commands.

β€”And he did that a lot in the Novices' Quarter. Fortunately, the space wiithin the system's storage was unlimited, so he did not have to worry that it would take up a lot of space.

Also, he did not need to worry about food from then on.

If disciples wanted to get food in the outer sect, they had to go to the Kitchen Quarter.

The Kitchen Quarter was a kind of cafeteria that served food made by Spiritual Chefs employed by the sect.

Qin Yi does not know much about Spiritual Cooking, but Gao Peng says that Spiritual Cooking is one of the secondary professions.

Every meal that the Spiritual Chef cooks contain rich spiritual energy that can even assist one's cultivation progress.

Qin Yi definitely wanted to visit the Kitchen Quarter and make some fortunes. But unfortunately, that place was full when he and Gao Peng passed by, and people had to queue for a single meal.

Even when he came back through the Kitchen Quarter earlier, the line still had not dispersed.

He was too lazy to queue, and Gao Peng said that the Kitchen Quarter was kind of an ominous place. There were often fights there because Yang Kai's men visited there every day.

Naturally, Qin Yi did not want to get entangled with them, so he decided to go straight back to his cave and eat his own food.

Even though a crowded place like the Kitchen Quarter was the perfect place to earn Cultivation Points, the risk of getting into trouble awaited him there.

Even though many people there, who can guarantee that those troublemakers will not pick on him?

New disciple status and an unfamiliar face; these two points alone can make disciples question themselves, "New disciple?" and eventually lead the attention of those troublemakers to him.

Therefore, Qin Yi was better off not going there for the time being, at least until he had the power to protect himself from the disciples who had malicious intent on him.
