Chapter 679: Chapter 293: Inviting Bai Yi to Form an Alliance Chapter 679: Chapter 293: Inviting Bai Yi to Form an Alliance After making a deal with the ancestor of the Yan Family, Lin Jing naturally did not hide anything and took out the map he had obtained from the Five Elements Ruins.
“This is the map of the Five Elements Ruins, please take a look.”
“The map, let me see…” the ancestor of the Yan Family commented, his eyes brightening.
Given that Lin Jing had already revealed the Five Elements Command Token, the ancestor of the Yan Family was shocked, not to mention that Lin Jing even possessed the map of the Five Elements Ruins.
This was even more surprising to the ancestor of the Yan Family.
Lin Jing then handed over the map as well.
Upon receiving the map, the ancestor of the Yan Family began to study it, and after a while, he looked up at Lin Jing:
“How did you come by this map?”
After speaking, the ancestor of the Yan Family then added:
“I mean, does anyone else have this map in their possession?”
Lin Jing pondered for a moment, then responded:
“This map, I obtained it in the main hall of the Five Elements, and even if others have it, they probably don’t have it in such completeness.”
Since he had decided to form an alliance with the ancestor of the Yan Family, he certainly could not conceal his entry into the main hall of the Five Elements.
Moreover, being the most suspicious at the moment, he couldn’t hide it even if he wanted to; revealing this early to the ancestor of the Yan Family also demonstrated his sincerity.

Otherwise, once they reached the main hall and found everything on the high platform gone, others would certainly suspect him.
Even if handling it poorly, there might even be misunderstandings with the ancestor of the Yan Family.
Therefore,
telling him at this time was indeed the correct approach.
Hearing this explanation from Lin Jing, after digesting his words, the ancestor of the Yan Family promptly spoke, asking Lin Jing:
“From your words, it seems that you were the only person who entered that place?”
“Yes.”
“You must know, elder, that I practice the Five Elements Cultivation Technique, and I merely used some special means which they probably do not know about.”
Lin Jing answered thus without revealing how he had entered the main hall of the Five Elements.
Having said this, Lin Jing took out a map fragment that he had previously obtained through the help of the Black Shark Gang’s Space Ring.
“This is a piece of map I had previously obtained, this fragment, it exactly matches the complete map I obtained.”
“It appears that this map might also be circulating outside.”
After finishing his explanation, Lin Jing also handed over the map fragment.
The ancestor of the Yan Family took the map fragment and then compared it, finding it was indeed, as Lin Jing had said, exactly matching a corner of the complete map.
After comparing it, the ancestor of the Yan Family fell into deep thought.
A moment later, as if having come to a realization, he then spoke to Lin Jing:
“Since we need to enter the Five Elements Ruins to compete for the True Spirit of the Five Elements, we must be well-prepared.”
“Please tell me in detail about your previous entry into the Five Elements Cave Mansion; I think we can make use of these two maps to concoct a plan.”
Lin Jing nodded and then shared how several individuals had entered the Five Elements Cave Mansion, as well as the events that took place inside.
Most importantly, he also did not forget to mention some of the grievances among the individuals involved.
Of course, regarding his own matters, Lin Jing did not reveal too much.
After Lin Jing had finished speaking, the ancestor of the Yan Family also pondered for a long while.
After his contemplation, the ancestor of the Yan Family said to Lin Jing:
