Lin Ke took a moment to head back.
He linked the pool on the mountain he had claimed to the Coldwater Pool in the "Pokémon" space.
From then on, anyone with his permission or a "key" could pass through the "door" deep in the pool and reach the other side.
The same went for the Coldwater Pool inside "Pokémon."
Once everything was in place, Lin Ke continued exploring the island's jungle.
He had acquired the Jade-Skin Moon-Chill Lotus, and with the learning ability he gained after advancing to the Second Realm, the Essence-Taking Realm, he had also learned the Jade-Wave Three-Legged Frog's tongue-launching technique.
His harvest had been quite bountiful.
But the Dark-Gold-Eyed Leopard knew of far more than just this spot.
"Master, there's also a Second Realm Green Python over there. Almost all the spirit items he hands over each year qualify as treasures."
Golden light shone in the Dark-Gold-Eyed Leopard's eyes.
Why did watching my master grow richer and richer feel so satisfying?
"A Green Python? Early or middle Second Realm?" Lin Ke asked curiously. "The spirit items he hands over every year are all treasures?!"
Treasures might have an unimpressive name, but at the very least, they were valuable objects.

Or perhaps the Green Python was a sycophant who liked currying
