Chapter 858 (1/2)

Chapter 858: Chapter 383: Inner Sea Affairs Concluded, Alchemy Conference Begins Chapter 858: Chapter 383: Inner Sea Affairs Concluded, Alchemy Conference Begins Not long after, Elder Qi came looking.

Following that, Lin Jing accompanied Elder Qi to meet Elder Bai.

Elder Bai, being a Grand Elder of the Elixir Alliance, usually stayed in his own cave dwelling unless there was some business.

But now, with the Alchemy Conference about to commence, even Elder Bai, as the Grand Elder, was much busier than usual.

Therefore, to meet Elder Bai, one could no longer go to his cave dwelling.

Lin Jing followed Elder Qi back to the Inner City.

Later, on the top floor of a tower-like building within the Elixir Alliance’s Inner City, they met Elder Bai.

Elder Bai, with hair and beard all white, wore flowing white robes, giving him an almost ethereal aura that seemed to lift him above the mundane world.

However, his aged features were hard to conceal, adding a sense of twilight years to his otherworldly demeanor.

Elder Bai, the ancestral patriarch of the Lin Family, and the patriarch of the Changyun Clan were all contemporaries and good friends with a close relationship.

The patriarch of the Changyun Clan had previously, due to his short remaining lifespan, intended to forcefully act to kill Ye Mingyi using his last years.

It was the ancestor of the Lin Family who had advised against it, causing the Changyun Clan’s patriarch to change his mind.

In the end, it was Lin Jing who had crafted a Flawless grade Longevity Life-Extension Elixir that temporarily resolved the lifespan crisis of the Changyun Clan’s patriarch.

Since Elder Bai was from the same era, it was likely that his remaining lifespan was not much either, which explained his aged appearance.

Upon seeing Lin Jing, Elder Bai immediately showed a warm smile, examining Lin Jing carefully:

“I’ve heard about you, you’re a child of the old Lin family…”

Lin Jing clasped his hands together and said to Elder Bai:

“Yes, Elder…”

Elder Bai looked at Lin Jing, nodding with satisfaction:

“Good…

good…”

“Although Old Lin is no longer with us, as long as you are here, the Lin Family still exists, and that’s good…”

No sooner had Elder Bai finished speaking, than Lin Jing took out an unimposing looking treasure box and handed it to Elder Bai:

“Elder Bai…”

“This is from Elder Changyun for you.”

Elder Bai looked curiously at the treasure box in Lin Jing’s hand, but accepted it nonetheless:

“What’s inside here?”

Taking the treasure box, Elder Bai didn’t open it right away, instead asking Lin Jing first.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing directly said:

“An Ascension Pill!”

“An Ascension Pill?” Elder Bai, upon hearing this, was immediately astonished.

Lin Jing nodded, then added:

“This was crafted by my ancestor, a failed Ascension Pill.

Elder Changyun asked me to pass it on to you so that you might study it, in hopes of being able to craft a genuine Ascension Pill in the future.”

Subsequently, Elder Bai opened the treasure box, and saw the half-pill emitting a rainbow glow lying inside.

At this moment, Lin Jing spoke again to Elder Bai:

“The calamity that nearly destroyed my Lin Family was because of this Ascension Pill.”

“My ancestor said the reason the Ascension Pill failed was due to the lack of a certain Immortal Yuan.

Only by infusing an Immortal Yuan during the crafting process could the Ascension Pill truly succeed.”
