Chapter 222: Chapter 216: These Harvest Points, They’re Just Too Few_2
This name was somewhat familiar to him, yet he couldn’t remember where he had seen it before…
Not until a moment later did the Ning Family’s elder suddenly slap the table.
“Fallen Spirit Qi!”
“I remember now…”
“No wonder, no one has been able to detect it.”
“It seems you, senior, have some understanding of this Fallen Spirit Qi,” said Lin Jing.
The Ning Family’s elder spoke directly:
“I have only encountered it in the family annals, but it’s been so long, I didn’t recall at first…”
“According to the family records, Fallen Spirit Qi exists only in the Demonic Monster Sea, not anywhere in the entire Nan-Zhou Underworld Domain, which is why it never crossed my mind.”
“I have no idea where the Yun Family got a hold of it…”
“When it comes down to it, we must thank your Elixir Valley. Had it not been for that senior from your valley, our Ning Family might have been completely ruined this time.”
At this point, the Ning Family’s elder seemed to remember something, and then questioned Lin Jing:
“I recall from the family records, that whether it contaminates spiritual objects or cultivators, Fallen Spirit Qi is extremely difficult to expel…”
“At the very least, a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivation is needed to forcibly purge it… ”
“Could it be that the senior from your Elixir Valley…”
Having said this, the Ning Family’s elder could hardly hide the excitement in his heart, looking at Lin Jing.
A Divine Transformation Cultivator was indeed extraordinary…
The leaders of the great Sects were all at the Nascent Soul Stage.
However…
It was rumored that within each of the great Sects, there was a Supreme Elder in residence, said to be Divine Transformation Cultivators…
But no one had ever seen them.
Thus, whether the rumors were true or false, there was no way to know.
Nascent Soul Stage cultivation was considered the pinnacle of existence in this Nan-Zhou Underworld Domain.
And now, a mysterious Elixir Valley, harboring a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator within it, how could it not stir speculation?
Lin Jing, too, was aware of what the Ning Family’s elder was thinking.
So he hurriedly explained:
“You have misunderstood, senior. The senior from our Elixir Valley is not a Divine Transformation Cultivator and cannot forcibly purge the Fallen Spirit Qi.”
“He just has a special method.”
Although Elixir Valley was a fiction of Lin Jing’s creation, not truly existing,
Lin Jing didn’t want to be too conspicuous.
If the news that there was a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator in Elixir Valley were to spread,
Then not only others,
but even the great Sects would likely be alerted.
After all…
An emergence of such a powerful force in the Nan-Zhou Underworld Domain suddenly, could even participate in the division of interests.
That would be intolerable…
No one could rest easy with such a colossal entity beside them.
At that time,
the great Sects would definitely take action to investigate.
Once the great Sects intervened, there would be no escape for Lin Jing.
Therefore,
this matter had to be explained clearly from the very start, to avoid any misunderstanding.
Following this,
Lin Jing saluted with cupped hands towards the Ning Family’s elder:
“Senior…”
“The method used by that senior from our Elixir Valley belongs exclusively to him, and even our Valley Master does not inquire about it.”
“I hope you can keep this confidential at this time.”
After hearing this, the Ning Family’s elder nodded:
“Rest assured, I understand.”
“I will not leak this matter.”
Having finished speaking…
The Ning Family’s elder then asked Lin Jing again:
“May I know what reward does that senior from your Elixir Valley desire?”
“I have prepared some things in advance, just not sure if he would be satisfied.”
“If he is not pleased, please have that senior speak, and I’ll make further preparations.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing opened his mouth and replied:
“That senior from our Elixir Valley said he was quite interested, so he casually treated it…”
“Regarding the reward, just give whatever you see fit.”
“He doesn’t care much about these things…”
After Lin Jing finished speaking, the Ning Family’s elder replied directly:
“Since that’s the case, then I’ll decide on my own.”
“Rest assured, the reward I’ve prepared this time will certainly satisfy that senior.”
With those words…
The Ning Family’s elder took a Spirit-Quelling Box out of his Storage Bag, along with a small trade-specific Storage Bag, and placed it on the table in front of Lin Jing.
“This is a third-tier Spirit Plant, the seed of the Ling Jiao Vine, also a treasure of our Ning Family.”
“However, since we already have one being cultivated, this seed has just been sitting unused.”
“Knowing that senior likes Spirit Plants, I specifically brought it as a reward for him.”
Ling Jiao Vine.
An auxiliary herb for making third-tier Elixir Medicines, Zeng Yuan Elixir; surprisingly, the Ning Family’s elder presented it as the reward.
