Chapter 489: Chapter 489: 186: Refining the Revival Elixir

Afterward, Qi Yan True Master turned his head and said to Yan Ming:

“Old Yan, I remember you have a Revival Vine on your Spirit Rock Island, don’t you? I’ll be borrowing it for now, I will return it to you later.”

Having said that, Qi Yan True Master turned to look at Yan Xing and Yan Yue, who were with Yue Qi Mother, and said:

“I’ll let these two nieces of mine stay here for now; they seem quite happy. We’ll make a trip back to Spirit Rock Island and retrieve the Revival Vine.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming exchanged glances with Qi Yan True Master, then nodded, and said to Lin Jing:

“Lin Daoyou…”

“We’re entrusting the young girl to your care for now; we’ll be back shortly.”

Lin Jing nodded and said:

“Rest assured, fellow Daoists.”

Thereafter, Yan Ming instructed Yan Xing and Yan Yue:

“Xing’er, Yue’er, you two stay and play here with Uncle Lin, your Seventh Qi Yan grandfather and I have some matters to handle and will be back very soon.”

The two girls had just happily chatted with Yue Qi Mother and were naturally very willing to stay.

Thus,

after taking their leave from Lin Jing, Yan Ming and Qi Yan True Master boarded a flying boat and departed from Li Yan Island.

…

After leaving Li Yan Island,

inside the flying boat, while True Master Qi Yan was swiftly maneuvering it over the sea, he asked Yan Ming:

“Old Yan, do you think this Lin Jing is reliable?”

“Could he truly be a fifth-grade Alchemy Grandmaster?”

“He doesn’t seem like it…”

Yan Ming frowned, pondering for a moment before speaking:

“Indeed, it doesn’t quite seem like it…”

“Before this, when Yan Xing and Yan Yue had just been brought back by Brother Lu and others, they mentioned that there was an Uncle Lin who is an Alchemist.”

“However, at the time, since all of them possessed only Golden Core Stage cultivation, I didn’t pay much attention to it and quickly put it out of my mind.”

“Even the grade of the alchemist wasn’t something I inquired about.”

“If only I had asked in passing at that time.”

At this point, Yan Ming also sighed:

“Alas…”

True Master Qi Yan then said:

“This Lin Jing…”

“He must have advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage only recently.”

“Although not numerous, there are indeed some who attain the status of a fifth-grade Alchemy Master while being at the Golden Core Stage. Since he claims to be a fifth-grade Alchemy Master, it probably isn’t false.”

“Then how about we first test him with the Revival Elixir?”

“If he can truly concoct the Revival Elixir, we can then ask for his help in concocting the Cleansing Spirit Elixirs needed for our two nieces.”

After listening, Yan Ming nodded and said:

“It seems we have no other choice…”

“But the concoction of the Cleansing Spirit Elixir isn’t easy, involving others is somewhat too risky, and there seems to be some trouble at Changyun Elixir Pavilion. Our acquaintance, Pill Master Li, has returned to the Inner Sea…”

“After much thought, it seems we only have Lin Jing to consider now…”

True Master Qi Yan nodded and said:

“That’s the only option we have!”

“However…”

“It’s quite unexpected that he could possess the Cleansing Spirit Elixir formula; having the formula means he should be more familiar with it than others, which should also increase the success rate of concoction compared to others.”

Yan Ming nodded and said:

“Indeed…”

“To think of the effort we put in to obtain that incomplete Cleansing Spirit Elixir formula.”

Master Qi Yan sighed helplessly and said:

“All of this is for the sake of those two nieces.”

“If we don’t improve their aptitude, reaching the Golden Core Stage might be the end of the road for them.”

Yan Ming also sighed and nodded:

“Indeed…”

“I just hope this Lin Jing can give us a pleasant surprise.”

…

When Master Qi Yan and Yan Ming returned, it was already five days later.

Aside from going back to Spirit Rock Island, they also made a trip to Bihai City, purportedly to collect some of the other Spiritual Plants needed for concocting the Revival Elixir.

Not until five days later did they return to Li Yan Island.

Upon their return, Lin Jing immediately invited them to come to his small courtyard in the northern part of Li Yan Island.

Since Li Yan City was now a bit crowded, it was better to be in the restricted area in the northern part of the island.

Due to the news of Lin Jing’s advancement to the Nascent Soul Stage being spread, Li Yan Island’s fame had grown even greater, attracting many visitors.

Now, the Li Yan Fang Market was slowly recovering, with many people returning to continue trade.

However,

most people weren’t aware of Lin Jing’s identity; they only knew that the Island Master of Li Yan Island was now a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

And he had assertively killed the Jin brothers, who had intended to forcefully occupy the island.

You must understand,

the Jin brothers were quite famous in this region due to their extraordinary cultivation.

With Lin Jing’s action of directly killing them, naturally, he deterred many petty criminals.

Those who had previously attempted to conquer Li Yan Island and were driven off by Zhang Jian, upon hearing this news,

were so terrified that they were beside themselves with fear.

Soon enough, there were those who couldn’t bear it and sought Lin Jing’s forgiveness by any means necessary.

However, Lin Jing didn’t pay much attention to these people and left everything to Yue Qi Mother to handle.

Although Lin Jing had no intention of taking action against them, he still issued an order to Yue Qi Mother.

That was to make them bleed significantly and suffer once before they could learn their lesson.

With Lin Jing’s command, Yue Qi Mother acted without any reservations.

Making those people pay a hefty price.

Despite the price, these individuals indeed did so willingly.

Subsequently,

after these people had paid a significant price, Lin Jing let Yue Qi Mother warn them and then put the incident behind them, allowing them to leave.
