“Senior Brother Chen…”
On the road, Lin Jing suddenly called out to Chen Xing, staring at him with a serious face.
Chen Xing was initially very puzzled, but when he turned his head and saw Lin Jing, his heart skipped a beat.
“Senior Brother Chen, tell me the truth, the issue with that Xu-surnamed individual you helped me deal with, was there not considerable trouble involved…”
Upon hearing this, Chen Xing became somewhat flustered and quickly tried to explain:
“Junior Brother Lin is overthinking it, Senior Han has already said that there is no major problem.”
However, although Chen Xing said this, his gaze was evasive, clearly lying, and the reality was obviously not as he described.
“Senior Brother Chen, since this matter is related to me, I hope you can inform me…” Lin Jing bowed his hands to Chen Xing and said with an extremely solemn expression.
Seeing Lin Jing like this, Chen Xing immediately realized that he had been found out.
With this thought, Chen Xing’s brow furrowed, showing a troubled expression. After some time, he seemed to have made up his mind before he continued to speak:
“To not conceal the truth from you, Junior Brother Lin, due to my oversight, there indeed were some troubles this time.”
“My anxiousness regarding Senior Han’s injury was precisely because of this trouble.”
“Please go on, Senior Brother Chen…” Lin Jing urged him hastily.
Chen Xing nodded and said:
“Senior Han needs to secure one of the top three spots in this disciple conference, then become a core disciple.”
“Furthermore, he has to pass the core disciple trial in five years, obtain the Sect’s reward of the Cultivation True Elixir, and then find a way to advance to the Golden Core Stage.”
“Only by doing so, can this trouble be perfectly resolved.”
“Otherwise, this matter won’t stay hidden for long, it will definitely be exposed, and both of us will inevitably not escape punishment.”
After finishing, Chen Xing said to Lin Jing:
“Junior Brother Lin…”
“You mustn’t let Senior Han find out about this.”
“Senior Han told me not to tell you about this matter, I hope you can understand, Junior Brother Lin.”
Lin Jing’s eyebrows raised slightly as he nodded:
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Chen.”
Having said that, Lin Jing seemed to suddenly remember something and suddenly said:
“Right, Senior Brother Chen…”
“Wait for me before heading to the Inner City, I’ll make a trip to Yuebaolou, to see my Master. I haven’t handed over the Elixir Medicine I refined before, I’m going to let him take a look…”
“Alright…”
Chen Xing replied.
……
Time flew by, and a day had already passed.
Yesterday, after drinking, Lin Jing used some tricks to get both Senior Han and Chen Xing drunk and knocked out.
The two of them had only just fully sobered up.
After waking up, they planned to leave.
Yesterday, after listening to what Chen Xing said.
Lin Jing knew the trouble Senior Han had caused for his sake was indeed not small.
And last night, while drunk, Senior Han specifically told Lin Jing that after they returned to Qingyuan Sword Sect this time, it would probably be a long time before they could leave the mountain again.
When Lin Jing pressed for more information, Senior Han refused to say anything more.
From this, it was clear that what Chen Xing had told him was true.
Senior Han did this, afraid that Lin Jing would worry.
However, Lin Jing had long had his own plan.
Yesterday, he made the excuse of going to Yuebaolou, but in reality, he had taken two Cultivation True Elixirs and packed them away.
Also, taking advantage of their drunken state, he gave the two Gathering Yuan Pills to Senior Han, having him keep the two Cultivation True Elixirs.
At that time, Senior Han was so drunk that he accepted them without fully being aware of it.
Moreover, Lin Jing also left a note inside.
It indicated that the Cultivation True Elixirs were obtained from his Master and were only a temporary loan for him to overcome this difficulty.
And at the end of the note, he instructed that the matter should be kept as confidential as possible. Certainly, with Senior Han’s intelligence, he would understand that this issue should not be publicized.
……
Actually, these Cultivation True Elixirs were of too low a grade to be of much use in Lin Jing’s hands.
Moreover, given the current situation, he dared not sell the Cultivation True Elixirs recklessly.
So, it was just right to give them to Senior Han.
As for Lin Jing himself, he would certainly need to refine the Flawless Cultivation True Elixirs before taking them.
It couldn’t be helped…
To maintain his cultivation speed and not be limited by pill toxins, Lin Jing would generally not take any other Elixir Medicine.
Unless, his Spirit Root Aptitude improved again, Lin Jing would consider taking other Elixir Medicines to increase his cultivation.
……
After sending the two away, Lin Jing returned to his small courtyard once more.
At the time he saw them off, Senior Han said goodbye without noticing the Cultivation True Elixir Lin Jing had given him.
But that was also fine, it spared Lin Jing the need for explanations.
Not long after returning to the small courtyard, Lin Jing took out the Pill Scripture from his Storage Bag.
With Senior Han and Chen Xing around, he hadn’t had the chance to read the Jade Slip; now that he was free, it was a good time to have a look.
Lin Jing held the Jade Slip in his hand and carefully examined it.
This purple Jade Slip was the first time Lin Jing had seen one; other than the color, it didn’t seem to be any different from other Jade Slips.
Next, Lin Jing stimulated his Divine Sense and probed toward the Jade Slip.
However, his Divine Sense was blocked by the Jade Slip.
He couldn’t penetrate it at all.
Lin Jing was quite puzzled; it was usually easy for his Divine Sense to probe into other jade slips.
“Could it be that there is some kind of forbiddance on this jade slip?”
Lin Jing muttered to himself.
Then he picked up the jade slip and continued to examine it.
After a long time, Lin Jing did not find any forbiddances on the jade slip.
In this case, either the forbiddance was too ingenious for Lin Jing’s cultivation to detect,
or there was no forbiddance at all, and it simply required a special method to open.
“A special method…”
Lin Jing paused for a moment, then thought of the bloodline inheritance box. He wondered,
“Could it be that this jade slip also requires the testing of bloodline power?”
Lin Jing then nodded slightly.
“Hmm! Very likely…”
Afterward, just like when he opened the box, he used a blade of condensed Spiritual Power to cut his finger.
Next, he dripped a few drops of blood onto the jade slip.
The moment the blood touched it, the jade slip immediately reacted.
The blood directly merged into the jade slip.
Then, a hazy purple light began to emanate from it, enveloping the entire jade slip, causing it to float and levitate in mid-air.
Moments later, the purple light dissipated.
And the jade slip returned to its original appearance, falling down.
Lin Jing reached out and caught the jade slip.
Then, he once again concentrated his Divine Sense and probed towards the jade slip.
This time, it was exceptionally smooth.
Lin Jing’s Divine Sense directly entered the jade slip.
However, as soon as he probed inside, a vast amount of information rushed into Lin Jing’s mind.
The sheer volume of information was overwhelming; Lin Jing had barely reacted when a severe headache struck, feeling as if his head was about to explode.
Thereupon, Lin Jing did not hesitate.
He quickly withdrew his Divine Sense.
After withdrawing his Divine Sense, Lin Jing fell back into the chair behind him.
His forehead was bulging with veins, and sweat soaked his entire body, even drenching his back.
The information just now was so immense that Lin Jing felt that if he had exited a few seconds later,
his head would probably have exploded on the spot, and even his Divine Sense might have been scattered by the surge of information.
One should not underestimate such an enormous volume of information; if one is not careful, it can indeed result in such consequences.
It’s like when a cultivator uses the Soul Searching Technique.
Very few cultivators employ the Soul Searching Technique, although it can extract desired information from an enemy’s mind; it also poses a significant burden on oneself.
Performing a Soul Search on someone is like receiving their memories, knowledge, and even emotions in an instant…
If one does not have a strong mind, there’s a high likelihood of becoming lost in it, unable to extract oneself.
What’s worse, one might even cause their own mind to collapse under the strain.
Therefore, Soul Searching is generally used by a cultivator of a higher rank on those of a lower rank,
and it cannot be used frequently.
Only in this way can it be relatively safe.
Previously, Wu Cai Immortal had intended to perform a Soul Search on Lin Jing, naturally for the same reason. Lin Jing appeared to only have eighth level Qi Refinement cultivation,
while Wu Cai Immortal was a Golden Core Immortal; there was a two-rank difference between them, so Wu Cai Immortal did not have any concerns.
Moreover.
He didn’t really believe that Lin Jing was the murderer.
His main purpose was actually to disrupt Lin Jing’s mind during the Soul Search, rendering him into an idiot or even killing him.
After all, because of Lin Jing and Huang Qingling, Liu Yiyuan had not progressed for a long time.
Although Wu Cai Immortal was angry about his lack of progress, he still harbored deep hatred for Lin Jing, the main culprit.
However, fortunately, the Zhang Family Patriarch intervened in the end, preventing Wu Cai Immortal from succeeding.
……
After withdrawing his Divine Sense…
Lin Jing felt that his mind was now filled with many scattered pieces of knowledge related to Alchemy Dao.
Although Lin Jing had forcefully withdrawn, this small portion of knowledge remained in his mind.
Probably less than one-thousandth.
Lin Jing then closed his eyes and delved into his sea of consciousness.
He discovered that this knowledge was just a collection of fragmented pieces, difficult to connect together.
It seems that to fully understand,
he would need to absorb and digest all the Alchemy Dao knowledge in the jade slip to integrate it all together.
However, Lin Jing obviously would not take such a risk.
He could feel that if he continued recklessly, he was very likely to completely succumb.
He might even have his sea of consciousness burst by the vast volume of knowledge, causing his Divine Sense to disperse, leaving him a simpleton.
Following that…
Lin Jing, supporting himself on the nearby table, stood up.
Just as he was about to go to his bedroom to meditate and recover, a very familiar voice came from outside.
“Lin Jing, I’m here, hurry and open the door.”
This voice was none other than Huang Qingling’s.
