Lin Jing thought for a moment after hearing this and then nodded his head.
âGoodâ¦â
âThen I will accompany Yan Daoyou to Spirit Rock Island.â
Just at this moment, Lin Jue spoke up, asking Lin Jing:
âBrotherâ¦â
âShall we first go back and wait for you? After youâve finished your alchemy, we can go together to the Nanming Domain.â
However, it was at this time that Yan Ming spoke:
âThereâs no needâ¦â
âIf you are going to the Nanming Domain, you must pass through Bihai City. You could also come with us to visit our Spirit Rock Island.â
âAfter the elixir medicine is refined, you can directly set out from Spirit Rock Island to Bihai City to take the teleportation array to the Nanming Domain, which would be even nearer.â
After hearing this, Lin Jing nodded and then said to Lin Jue and Ye Yun:
âIn that case, you two should come with me.â
â¦
Afterward.
Yan Ming summoned a flying boat, carrying Lin Jing, the three of them, and Little Sparrow, as they left Li Yan Island and flew towards Spirit Rock Island.
On the way to Spirit Rock Island, Lin Jing and Yan Ming talked the entire journey, and Yan Ming also introduced to Lin Jing the Xingluo Elixir Sect, as well as many exploits of the Grand Elder of the Elixir Hall.
This Grand Elder was no ordinary person, not only did he possess a Cultivation at the Divinity Transformation Stage, but he was also a Seventh Grade Pill Master, famous throughout the Western Demon Region.
And the Patriarch of the Yan family had known this Divinity Transformation Stage Grand Elder for quite some time.
The two had met during the Golden Core Stage, their cultivation levels were similar back then, and they had even adventured together for a while.
However, as the years passed, the two went their separate ways due to their respective family sects, and each encountered their own fortunes and misfortunes.
But in the endâ¦
The Patriarch of the Yan family encountered a bottleneck, stuck at the Nascent Soul Peak for many years without making any progress.
Whereas that Grand Elder, after entering the Divinity Transformation Stage, had a special opportunity that propelled him forward, and he even directly advanced into the Divinity Transformation Stage.
Although the two still kept in touch, from then on, their statuses became worlds apart, and it was difficult to be as they were before.
After Yan Ming had finished telling the story, he couldnât help but sigh.
âPerhaps, life is just like that, only one opportunity away from a completely different worldâ¦â
Indeedâ¦
If the Patriarch of the Yan family were at the Divinity Transformation Stage, then the entire Yan family would already be a superpower like Bihai City in the southern seas.
If that were the case, the talent issues of Yan Xing and Yan Yue would likely have already been resolved.
â¦
When the group arrived at Spirit Rock Island, they immediately met Yan Xing and Yan Yue.
There were others there besides the two sistersâ¦
One of them was a handsome young man.
The young man looked young, but he already possessed a mid-Golden Core Stage cultivation level.
Moreover, his attire was luxurious and even bore faint glimmers of light, indicating he likely possessed an extraordinary defensive magical treasure.
Lin Jing only needed a glance to identify at least three defensive magical treasures on him, all of exceptional quality.
It seemed this youth was no ordinary person.
The other was an incredibly beautiful woman in white garments with an elegant and transcendental demeanor.
This woman in white was different from the man.
Her expression was calm and indifferent, as if she cared for nothing, and unlike the man, she did not wear any conspicuous magical treasures.
Although the woman and the man stood together, a testament to their good looks, they did not seem like a couple at all.
Furthermore, the two somewhat resembled each other, but it was unclear what their relationship was.
The woman, like Lin Jing, was at the late Nascent Soul Stage, and her cultivation level was even slightly higher than Lin Jingâs, at the ninth level of Nascent Soul.
Yan Ming, leading Lin Jing and the others, first introduced the Nascent Soul ninth-level female cultivator to Lin Jing:
âThis is Ji Xiyue of the Xingluo Elixir Sect, an elder of the Elixir Hall, who is also a fifth-grade Pill Master.â
âAnd this talented young man next to her is Ji Ling, a core disciple of the Elixir Hall of the Xingluo Elixir Sect.â
After finishing, Yan Ming discreetly sent a voice transmission to Lin Jing:@@novelbin@@
âLin Daoyouâ¦â
âThis Ji Xiyue and Ji Ling are descendants of that Grand Elder of the Xingluo Elixir Sectâs Elixir Hall.â
âJi Xiyue is his youngest daughter, and Ji Ling is his only grandson.â
ââThey came this time to take charge of escorting the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass here.â
The Grand Elder of the Elixir Hall had mentioned this to Lin Jing on the journey here, via Yan Ming; naturally, Lin Jing was aware.
After introducing Lin Jing, Yan Ming once again addressed the two men:
âThis person is the Pill Master Iâve invited to concoct the Cleansing Spirit Elixir, Lin Daoyou Lin Jingâ¦â
After speaking, Yan Ming turned to Ji Xiyue and said:
âJi Daoyouâ¦â
âLin Daoyou is the same as you, also a Fifth Grade Alchemist; the two of you could exchange some views. After all, itâs not fitting for alchemists to work in isolation; an exchange between you might lead to mutual improvement.â
However, no sooner had Yan Ming finished speaking than the young man Ji Ling glanced at Lin Jing and muttered under his breath:
âMy aunt is recognized by our Xingluo Elixir Sect as the number one alchemical prodigy. Whatâs there to exchange with him?â
Although Ji Lingâs voice wasnât loud, the least of those present was at the Golden Core Stage in cultivation.
Not just Lin Jing and the others, but even Lin Jue and Ye Yun behind Lin Jing clearly heard it.
Yan Ming himself was directly stunned for a moment; such an occurrence was probably beyond his expectations as well.
Upon hearing this, the expression on the white-dressed woman Ji Xiyueâs face turned cold, and she turned her head to look directly at the man and scolded:
âWhat nonsense are you talking? Apologize at once!â
Hearing Ji Xiyueâs reprimand, Ji Ling shrank his neck like a startled chick and hurriedly apologized to Lin Jing:
âIâm sorryâ¦â
âI misspokeâ¦â
At the same time, the white-dressed woman Ji Xiyue also opened her mouth and said to Lin Jing:
âDaoyou, I am very sorryâ¦â
âThe younger generation of my family is spoiled and rash, and spoke out of turn; I hope you wonât take it to heart.â
Lin Jing didnât take Ji Lingâs words to heart.
Being a core disciple of an alchemical sect and having a grandfather who is both the Grand Elder of the Elixir Hall and a Seventh Grade Pill Master, it was normal for him to look down on other alchemists.
Anyway, Lin Jing would leave after finishing the elixir medicine; thereafter, he wouldnât have anything to do with them.
Naturally, Lin Jing wouldnât lower himself to their level.
Lin Jing then spoke directly to Ji Xiyue:
âNo matterâ¦â
â¦
â¦
Although Lin Jing was indifferent, Lin Jue, standing behind him, looked at Ji Ling with dissatisfaction.
Ye Yun, noticing this, quickly reached out, tugging at Lin Jue to remind her to be cautious.
Lin Jue slightly pursed her lips and secretly transmitted her message to Ye Yun:
âYe Blockheadâ¦â
âDonât worry, I know my limits, and I wonât cause any trouble for brother.â
Ye Yun was relieved upon hearing Lin Jueâs message.
However, although Lin Jue said this, the way she looked at Ji Ling remained unfriendlyâ¦
Seeing that the situation had eased, Yan Ming quickly spoke up to mediate, and after making peace, he led the group inward into the island.
â¦
Two days flashed by.
In these two days, Lin Jing had not done anything, nor had he performed any alchemy; he just stayed inside the alchemy room, flipping through some alchemy texts of Spirit Rock Island.
It wasnât until two days later, while Lin Jing was reading in the alchemy room, that he was suddenly informed that Lin Jue and Ji Ling had started arguing.
Lin Jing frowned slightly and then rose, following the person towards the location of the incident.
Upon exiting the alchemy room, just as Lin Jing turned at a corner, he encountered Yan Ming and Ji Xiyue who were coming from the opposite direction.
Seeing the two, it seemed they shared the same destination as Lin Jing.
After exchanging greetings, the three of them headed to the site together.
Before they could reach the site, still some distance away, they heard Ji Lingâs angry voice:
âYouâ¦â
âThis is going too farâ¦â
âNo one has ever dared to be so arrogant in front of me; I donât believe youâre really that incredible. Iâll bet you!â
