Chapter 533: Chapter 217: New System Feature: Spirit Field Expansion

On the morning of the second day, Yan Ming found Lin Jing and inquired about the competition between the two of them.

It turned out that early in the morning, Ji Xiyue had sought out Yan Ming to inform him about the competition with Lin Jing, and she had obtained a list of materials for refining the Cleansing Spirit Elixir from Yan Ming.

Yan Ming was quite confident in Ji Xiyue’s alchemy level and was very pleased that she was willing to craft the elixirs for him.

After all, Ji Xiyue was the recognized top talent alchemist of the Xingluo Elixir Sect, so there was no need to elaborate on her alchemy skills.

Although the two knew each other, their relationship was not yet at that level of closeness.

Yan Ming himself was very aware that Ji Xiyue’s friendship was not enough for her to agree to craft elixirs for him.

When Yan Ming confirmed the alchemy competition details from Lin Jing, he was silent for a while before patting Lin Jing on the shoulder, comforting him with a few words, and then said no more.

Clearly, even Yan Ming, who had asked Lin Jing to craft elixirs, did not have high hopes for him.

Lin Jing had nothing to say about this.

Everything would have to wait until the Elixir Medicine was refined.

Yan Ming did not stay long here, after exchanging a few pleasantries with Lin Jing and offering some words of comfort, he left.

Soon, another two days had passed.

The upgrade of Lin Jing’s System Space had reached the sixth day and would be complete in just one more day.

It was early in the morning on this day that Ji Xiyue came to Lin Jing and stated she was ready to start the alchemy process.

And furthermore.

Ji Xiyue had specifically invited Lin Jing to observe her alchemy.

After considering Ji Xiyue’s invitation, Lin Jing decided to decline it politely.

Although.

Watching the preparation process before crafting the Elixir Medicine would have been somewhat helpful to him.

However, Lin Jing being there might influence Ji Xiyue, and while it would have been fine under normal circumstances,

this alchemy session involved a wager between them, so it wouldn’t be fair to Ji Xiyue for Lin Jing to observe her process in advance.

For this reason, Lin Jing chose to refuse.

Hearing Lin Jing’s explanation, Ji Xiyue didn’t say anything more, bade him farewell, and left.

Ji Xiyue had arrived in the morning, and by the time the news of her finishing the Cleansing Spirit Elixir came, it was already evening.

Ji Xiyue truly lived up to her reputation as Xingluo Elixir Sect’s recognized genius alchemist for she succeeded in her first attempt at crafting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

This batch yielded a Superior grade and a Medium Grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

However, she failed to refine a topmost grade elixir.

Yan Ming felt somewhat regretful about this outcome.

Taking a topmost grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir would result in an 80％ chance of enhancing the spiritual root’s quality by one grade,

whereas for a Superior grade elixir, the chance was only 50％.

To talk about it, a 50％ chance was actually not low.

But…

given the special nature of the Cleansing Spirit Elixir, each person could only consume one pill, as the second would be useless.

Although Yan Ming’s plan was for Yan Xing and Yan Yue, the sisters, to take the topmost grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir,

after Ji Xiyue had refined the elixirs, Yan Ming, holding the Superior grade elixir, still wrestled with his thoughts for a long time…

Considering whether to let the sisters take the Superior Elixir Medicine immediately and try to enhance their spiritual roots.

In the end.

After a struggle, Yan Ming decided not to let the sisters consume the Elixir Medicine for the time being.

Nevertheless, there would be one more opportunity, so it might as well be Lin Jing’s turn to try.

After all.

This was about his daughter’s lifetime, and Yan Ming didn’t want any mishaps to occur.

After finishing the Elixir Medicine refinement, Ji Xiyue came to Lin Jing once more.

And informed Lin Jing of some particular things to pay attention to when crafting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

While Ji Xiyue was telling Lin Jing about the important points during the process, Lin Jing looked at her somewhat distractedly…

Afterward, Lin Jing voiced his doubts:

“Ji Fellow Daoist, you actually don’t care about the outcome of this competition, right?”

Ji Xiyue then looked up at Lin Jing, meeting his scrutinizing gaze.

“Caring and not caring…”

“It’s pretty much the same to me, I’m just looking for an answer,” Ji Xiyue said softly, looking at Lin Jing.

Subsequently, Lin Jing did not ask any more questions.

And after speaking with Lin Jing, Ji Xiyue left directly.
