Chapter 841 (1/2)
Chapter 841: Chapter 375: First Arrival at the Shi Family_2 Chapter 841: Chapter 375: First Arrival at the Shi Family_2 It was Grandpa Shi San who got the news and arrived later, using the Heaven-deceiving Secret Art to barely save Shi San.
When the Shi Family was ambushed in the Eastern Spirit Realm, it caused quite a stir, and naturally, the Shi Family did not just sit by; they fought back fiercely.
They caused heavy losses to the hostile forces, forcing them to retreat from the East Continent and disappear from then on.
By the time Lin Jing arrived at the Shi Family, two months had already passed.
The area of the Eastern Spirit Realm was simply too vast; even with Lin Jing’s speed, it still took him two months.
After all, this time Lin Jing was traveling from the Far East Region, where the Elixir Alliance was located, to the Northwest Region where the Shi Family resided, nearly spanning the entire Eastern Spirit Realm.
The long journey naturally took a continuous stretch of time.
Moreover, this was under the circumstance of continuously using Teleportation Arrays to travel; without them, it might have taken dozens of years for Lin Jing to reach the Shi Family.
The Shi Family was situated on a desolate mountain; the entire mountain was flattened by the Shi Family, forming what is now known as the Shi Family estate.
Lin Jing arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Shi Family’s desolate mountain was located, and looked up.
The clouds above were swirling, obscuring any visibility.
These were not ordinary clouds, but a Defense Array that the Shi Family had expended enormous effort to construct.
This array was extremely formidable; not only was its defense astonishing, but it could even block the Divine Sense explorations of peak Mahayana Cultivators.
After observing for a while, Lin Jing did not see anyone else at the foot of the mountain.

Thus,
Lin Jing directly stepped forward, heading towards the mountain.
But as soon as Lin Jing stepped into the range of the desolate mountain, he felt a wave of Divine Sense sweeping over him, and then he was locked in by a force.
Following that…
came a voice from ahead:
“Who dares to trespass onto the Shi Family’s property?”
With this voice, a figure flew down from the mountain ahead and then arrived in front of Lin Jing.
The figure was a middle-aged man in a gray robe, his aura fluttering his robe noisily.
The cultivation aura of this middle-aged man was very formidable, at least at the mid-stage level of Tribulation.
At this time, his expression was devoid of any emotion, his gaze cold as he looked at Lin Jing, seemingly very unwelcoming towards Lin Jing, this intruder, as if he might strike out at any moment.
Facing this middle-aged man, Lin Jing did not hide his intentions, but directly stated his purpose:
“Esteemed senior…
“I am a disciple of Elder Qi from the Elixir Alliance, specifically ordered by my master to come to the Shi Family.”
“A disciple of Elder Qi from the Elixir Alliance?” The middle-aged man’s eyes sparkled upon hearing this, he first assessed Lin Jing and then spoke:
“If you say you are a disciple of Elder Qi from the Elixir Alliance, do you have any proof?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was momentarily stunned, and then said:
“Proof?”
“It seems I really don’t have any, but I do have an identity token from the Elixir Alliance.”
Elder Qi, often engrossed in studying elixir recipes, generally left his disciples to their own devices, naturally leaving behind no particular proof.
After hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but scoff and then said:
“Heh…
“With so many people in the whole Elixir Alliance, what’s so special about an identity token?”
“If you don’t have anything to prove your relationship with Elder Qi, then leave as soon as possible and come back after you get the proof.”
After saying this, the middle-aged man’s gaze became sharper, his aura even more imposing, pressuring Lin Jing.
This middle-aged man, it seemed, had a particular prejudice against Lin Jing, as if specifically targeting him.
It was Lin Jing’s first time coming to the Shi Family, and he had never met this middle-aged man of the Shi Family before, so he wondered why he would act like this.
Lin Jing fell silent for a moment, and then spoke:
“I indeed do not have any token given by Elder Qi.”
“However…”
“I do have another item, which might serve as proof.”
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man’s expression instantly turned solemn, and he said coldly:
“You just said you had nothing, and now you suddenly change your story, aren’t you playing games with me?”
Lin Jing did not bother to argue further, but took out a stone token from his Space Ring.
This token, which was given to him by Grandpa Shi San after he had passed his Divinity Transformation Heavenly Tribulation.
Although he did not have a token from Elder Qi, he did have a token left by Grandpa Shi San, whose cultivation was undoubtedly esteemed within the Shi Family.
And the token he had given him was most likely a kind of proof.
No sooner had Lin Jing taken out the stone token than something unexpected happened.
The moment the token was exposed, it immediately emitted a strong glow, and along with this glow, the token left Lin Jing’s palm and swiftly flew upwards.

Seeing this, Lin Jing was somewhat bewildered.
Lin Jing, facing the middle-aged man, saw his expression change abruptly when he spotted the Shi Token, and he immediately turned his head toward Lin Jing and said,
“The Shi Family’s Shi Token…”
