Standing beside Lin Jing, Ji Xiyue expressed her surprise with a single sound:
âEh?â
âHow can it be a Supreme Elixir Medicine?â
As soon as Ji Ling smelled that fragrance, his expression had already turned odd, especially when he heard Ji Xiyue mention the Supreme Elixir Medicineâ¦
Ji Ling was completely stunned, staring straight at Lin Jueâs Pill Furnace.
At that moment.
Both of their alchemy processes had been completed, and the crowd no longer needed to worry about disturbing them.
Ji Xiyue directly stepped out, following behind Yan Ming, and headed toward Lin Jue.
Lin Jing did the same, walking toward Lin Jue, with the remaining Ye Yun, as well as Yan Xing and Yan Yue, swiftly following suit.
Seeing that several people had already walked over, Ji Ling hesitated for a moment but then, like everyone else, went in the direction of Lin Jue.
He wanted to see for himself whether the medicine that Lin Jue had concocted was truly a Supreme Spirit Pill.
â¦â¦
By the time Lin Jing had arrived, Yan Ming had already received the Elixir Medicine from Lin Jueâs hands.
âOne Supreme, one Superior, two Medium Grade Spirit Pillsâ¦â
âNo Low Gradeâ¦â
In Yan Mingâs hands, those Spirit Pills were being lifted by his Spiritual Power, particularly the round and full Supreme Spirit Pill, which was attracting everyoneâs attention.
Ji Ling was the last to come over, and upon seeing the Supreme Spirit Pill, he first paused, then with furrowed brows, he spoke:
âA Supreme Spirit Pill, how is this possible?â
âCould it be that he has already become a Fourth Grade Alchemist?â
The reason for Ji Lingâs disbelief was because concocting a Supreme Elixir Medicine is no easy feat.
Especially for them, who had recently been promoted to Alchemists, it was very difficult to concoct a Supreme Elixir Medicine at the same level.
Unless oneâs luck was truly against the heavens, only then was there a chance to concoct such an Elixir Medicine.
And such against-the-heavens luck hadnât been seen in the Xingluo Elixir Sect for several decades already.
To concoct a Supreme Elixir Medicine, one must go through a long period of accumulation and only after oneâs alchemy skills have improved could there be a possibility of success.
Just like how Lin Jing, back in the beginning at Yuebaolou, gradually step by step revealed his alchemy talent.
Before thisâ¦
Ji Ling had also heard from Yan Ming that Lin Jue, just like him, had recently been promoted to a Fourth Grade Alchemist.
Thatâs why Ji Ling wasnât worried at all about being defeated.
Yet the opponent had actually concocted a Supreme Elixir Medicine in this alchemy competition.
Did that mean the opponent had already advanced to a Fourth Grade Pill Master, lingering in this realm for decades?
If that was indeed the case, then it would truly be terrifying.@@novelbin@@
This person did not seem very old; if it really were so, then wouldnât his talent in Alchemy Dao surpass even his own auntâs?
Ji Ling would rather believe that Lin Jue was extremely lucky than to accept that Lin Jueâs talent in Alchemy Dao could surpass his auntâs.
â¦â¦
At this moment.
Ji Xiyueâs expression was grave as she fixed her eyes on that pill. Then she turned to Yan Ming and said:
âYan Daoyou, could you please hand that pill over for me to take a lookâ¦â
Yan Ming nodded and handed the Supreme Spirit Pill over to her.
After receiving the elixir, Ji Xiyue immediately began a detailed examination.
Ji Xiyue was very meticulous in her observation of the Elixir Medicine.
It was a while before Ji Xiyue finished her examination and then returned the pill back to Yan Ming.
Then, Ji Xiyue spoke:
âIt is indeed a Supreme Elixir Medicine, we lost this alchemy competition.â
At this time, Lin Jue spoke, lifting his head to address Ji Ling:
âHeyâ¦â
âWell, are you satisfied now? Hurry up and apologize to my brotherâ¦â
Ji Lingâs face darkened and he lowered his head. He never expected to lose so thoroughly.
Ji Xiyue glanced at Ji Ling and then started speaking:
âLittle Ling, apologize!â
Now that Ji Xiyue had personally spoken, Ji Ling no longer said anything and directly approached Lin Jing, saying:
âSenior, Iâm sorryâ¦â
âPreviously, it was my lack of understanding, and I was disrespectful to you. Please forgive me.â
Lin Jing looked at Ji Ling and nodded slightly, accepting the apology.
Lin Jue became even happier and spoke again to Ji Ling:
âAlso, donât forget our betâ¦â
Hearing Lin Jueâs words, Ji Ling did not argue this time. Without saying anything else, he took out a Demonic Beast Inner Core and tossed it to Lin Jue.
âA sixth rank Demonic Beast, the Flame Soul Crimson Dragon Beastâs Inner Core, should be enough for the betâ¦â
After finishing his words, Ji Ling turned around, head lowered, and left the alchemy room.
Lin Jue, not at all modest, played with the Demonic Beast Inner Core, looking quite pleased with it.
And so, the alchemy competition ended, and Lin Jue ultimately won the contest.
After the contest, the group exchanged pleasantries and then dispersed. Lin Jing also took Lin Jue and Ye Yun back to their lodgings.
On the way back, Lin Jue was very excited, continuously talking about how she had methodically planned each step and started to break down Ji Lingâs composure even before the contest beganâ¦
Indeedâ¦
Lin Jue, that clever girl, would never come out on the losing end. In fact, this entire duel was something she orchestrated by seizing the opportunity to intentionally provoke Ji Ling.
However, all of this was for Lin Jingâ¦
â¦â¦
Not long after they returned, someone came to visit.
It was Ji Xiyue.
Upon her arrival, Ji Xiyue directly invited Lin Jing to go out for a talk.
Lin Jing hesitated for a moment and then nodded his head, leaving the residence with Ji Xiyue.
The two of them walked out together.
Ji Xiyue led Lin Jing to a beautiful, secluded hillside and stopped.
Once there, Ji Xiyue turned and her beautiful eyes shone with brilliance. She looked at Lin Jing carefully and then spoke:
âSo Lin Daoyou is also a descendant of an ancient Alchemy Dao lineage.â
âI had thought Lin Daoyou was just a Loose Cultivator. It was a lapse on my partâ¦â
Alchemists with an Alchemy Dao heritage differ slightly from those without when they concoct Elixir Medicines,
To others, the difference might not be noticeable, but Ji Xiyue, being an alchemist herself, could easily see it.
Therefore, Lin Jing didnât react too strongly.
Ji Xiyue continued to speak, inquiring:
âHowever, I wonder which family Lin Daoyou belongs to, if itâs convenient to disclose?â
There are many Alchemy Dao lineages in the Cultivation World, and while they all differ from one another, the Elixir Medicines they produce are quite similar, making it difficult to identify the lineage based on the Elixir Medicine alone.
Therefore.
Even Ji Xiyue, the number one talent of the Xingluo Elixir Sect, couldnât determine which Alchemy Dao family Lin Jing belongs to.
Lin Jing looked at Ji Xiyue. Her eyes sparkling with curiosity, she seemed to be smiling as she stared at Lin Jing, seemingly very interested in him.
Then Lin Jing shook his head lightly and said:
âJi Daoyouâ¦â
âIndeed, I have an Alchemy Dao heritage, but I am sorry, I cannot disclose this heritage.â
