Chapter 391 - Chapter 391: Chapter 91 Farewell (2/2)
just wondering whether he had managed to break through the fifty-meter barrier this time…
afterward, lin jing continued upward.
soon, he returned to the cave.
then, lin jing changed into the clothes he had already prepared.
only after examining his body did he nod in satisfaction.
though he had been a hulking figure for several years, lin jing still preferred his current appearance.
after that, lin jing left the place.
when lin jing returned to li yan city, even yue qi, who saw him, was stunned.
if it weren’t for the familiar aura and voice, she wouldn’t dare believe that this was lin jing’s true appearance.
however, lin jing’s explanation soon helped her understand.
next, yue qi told lin jing something.
lu youjiu and the other two had temporarily left li yan island, apparently because they had some matters to attend to.
they hadn’t informed lin jing because they were afraid of disturbing his cultivation.
the reason yue qi had stayed behind was specifically to tell him this news.
after hearing this, lin jing nodded.
now that li yan island was stable and there were no enemies left.
moreover, since returning after dealing with the heavenly desire demon monarch, holaw three rivers had built a defense-offense integrated fifth-rank grand formation for li yan island.
this formation was even more formidable than the one previously set up by dai mao.
therefore, there was no fear of any attacks.
next, lin jing only needed to go about his business and didn’t need to worry about anything.
after talking with yue qi for a while, lin jing then left li yan city to return to his alchemy room.
he still needed to refine the flawless eternal youth elixir for yan wanfei.
according to what yue qi had just said, they would be gone for quite a long time.
lin jing thought to himself that he should refine the flawless eternal youth elixir before they returned to give yan wanfei a surprise…
……
time passed quickly, and before he knew it, another three months had flown by.
throughout this period, lu youjiu and the others hadn’t returned, not even sending any messages.
then one day, as lin jing was practicing the shenglin revival wood technique in the spirit field in the northern part of li yan island, repairing the delicate veins within the spirit plants…
suddenly.
lin jing felt a powerful divine sense sweep over him, and he promptly activated his own divine sense to scan back.
when lin jing scanned back, he was immediately taken aback…
then a divine sense message reached lin jing’s mind:
“brother lin…”
“come quickly to li yan city, there are matters to discuss…”
it was lu youjiu and the others who had returned. the one transmitting the divine sense message was precisely lu youjiu.
lin jing promptly replied through divine sense:
“brother lu, please wait a moment…”
having said that, lin jing immediately stood up.
then he flew to li yan city on his flying sword.
arriving at the city lord’s mansion in li yan city, lin jing immediately saw lu youjiu and the others.
afterward, lin jing walked over with a smile:
“brother lu…”
“brother san he, brother yan…”
“your mission this time has been quite lengthy.”
yan wanfei then said:
“this time it was brother jiu who had some matters; we just accompanied him to take care of some business.”
lin jing then looked at lu youjiu with concern:
“brother lu, was the matter very troublesome?”
lu youjiu shook his head and said:
“it’s just some private affairs, nothing serious…”
after speaking, lu youjiu took out a transparent ‘stone’ of unknown material from his space ring and handed it to lin jing.
he then said:
“brother lin…”
“this is a piece of flowing light gold crystal, perfect for adding to your ling yin flawless sword to enhance its quality.”
“if combined with the bright spirit origin stone in your hand, it could even further upgrade your ling yin flawless sword.”
“you just need to find an energy refinement master to meld it into your ling yin flawless sword when the time comes.”
the bright spirit origin stone was that transparent material lin jingzhi had obtained from the island master’s storage bag on yuxing island.
the bright spirit origin stone was incredibly precious, only a high-ranking energy refinement master could refine and integrate it into a flying sword.
that’s why the artifact refiner yan wanfei had found earlier didn’t take the initiative on his own.
……
at that moment, yan wanfei quickly added:
“brother lin, i won’t be able to help you find an artifact refiner this time…”
“because we three are leaving…”
lin jing was taken aback upon hearing this, and then asked with confusion:
“leaving?”
“to where?”
when lin jing had come here, he felt that the atmosphere was a bit off.
especially yan wanfei, who had lost his usual liveliness.
so this was the reason.
lu youjiu spoke up:
“this time, we’re planning to leave this southern outer sea and head to the inner sea…”
“once we leave this time, we won’t be coming back for a short while. when we return, we don’t know how many years it will be.”
“so we’ve come to bid farewell to you, brother lin…”
