Lin Jing, holding the Supreme Grade Dao Artifact, the Ling Yin Flawless Sword, was immediately dumbfounded with astonishment.

Previously, Qi Yan True Monarch had said that the Ling Yin Flawless Sword could, at best, be between a Mid-grade Dao Artifact and a Superior Dao Artifact.

Yet, who would have thought that, after Qi Yan True Monarch truly forged it, he unexpectedly created a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact, which greatly exceeded Lin Jing’s expectations.

And moreover,

Lin Jing also knew that with the materials he provided himself, they simply weren’t enough to upgrade the Ling Yin Flawless Sword to the level of a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact.

Thus, the only possibility was that Qi Yan True Monarch had added more advanced materials, which enabled the Ling Yin Flawless Sword to be forged into a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact.

Lin Jing, holding the Ling Yin Flawless Sword, carefully examined it before raising his head to Qi Yan True Monarch and saying,

“Qi Yan Daoyou, this…”

“I know that with the materials I provided, it definitely wouldn’t be possible to enhance the Ling Yin Flawless Sword to the level of a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact.”

“You must have added other precious materials into it, materials that are certainly quite valuable.”

Having said this, Lin Jing looked towards Qi Yan True Monarch and spoke again,

“Qi Yan Daoyou…”

“By doing this, I’m afraid you have something in mind that you want my assistance with, right?”

Upon hearing this, Qi Yan True Monarch did not conceal anything and directly responded,

“In the process of reforging this Flying Sword for you, besides the two materials provided by Lin Daoyou, I indeed added two other rare materials.”

“However, these materials were not provided by me, instead, they were provided by Old Yan.”

“Yan Daoyou?” Lin Jing, puzzled, turned to look at Yan Ming beside him.

Qi Yan True Monarch nodded and continued,

“Old Yan, he needs your help with something.”

At this time, Yan Ming also hurriedly clasped his fists and said,

“Lin Daoyou…”

“I have a favor to ask and hope that Lin Daoyou can grant it.”

Lin Jing also clasped his fists in response,

“Yan Daoyou…”

“You are too polite. Just say the word, and if I can be of help, I will do my best to assist.”

“But may I ask what it is you wish for my help with?”

At this, Qi Yan True Monarch interjected,

“Alchemy…”

“Alchemy?” Lin Jing became confused.

“If you need help with Alchemy, Yan Daoyou only needs to ask, and I will naturally lend a hand.”

As he spoke, Lin Jing looked at the Ling Yin Flawless Sword in his hand and said,

“Why would you need to go to such lengths as Yang Daoyou has?”

Indeed, in Lin Jing’s opinion,

Given his relationship with Yan Xing and Yan Yue, even if Yan Ming required Alchemy, Lin Jing would not normally refuse.

Besides, Yan Ming was the Island Master of Spirit Rock Island, and Spirit Rock Island possessed many rare High-Grade Spiritual Plants.

He himself might need to obtain some rare Spiritual Plants from Spirit Rock Island at any time.

Therefore, Lin Jing was also keen to maintain good relations with Yan Ming and Spirit Rock Island.

But, Yan Ming came forth providing a great surprise right away,

Directly supplying materials to upgrade the Ling Yin Flawless Sword to the level of a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact.

In doing so, Lin Jing involuntarily owed Yan Ming a huge favor, and if Yan Ming then made some requests, Lin Jing would find it difficult to refuse.

Moreover, once bound by such a big favor, Lin Jing would always feel indebted, which was inconsistent with his nature; he would certainly find a way to repay the debt.

Originally, Lin Jing had thought that Yan Ming had done so because there was some difficult matter to handle.

But it turned out to be just Alchemy…

Clearly, what Lin Jing was expected to offer did not compare to what Yan Ming had provided.

It was unreasonable.

……

Following this, Lin Jing reflected for a moment before he said:

“Yan Daoyou doing this…”

“Could it be that the Elixir Furnace Medicine he wants to craft is not easy to make?”

Yan Ming nodded and said:

“Indeed, it is so…”

Lin Jing inwardly nodded, knowing it must be for this reason that Yan Ming was willing to make such a big sacrifice from the start.

His purpose was to make it difficult for Lin Jing to refuse.

Then Lin Jing continued to ask:

“May I know what kind of Elixir Medicine Yan Daoyou wants my help in crafting?”

Yan Ming looked at Lin Jing and said:

“Cleansing Spirit Elixir…”

“And at the very least, it has to be of Supreme Grade or above.”

“Crafting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is not easy, and the higher the quality, the harder it is to achieve. Hence, to acquire at least a Supreme Grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir, crafting just one batch might not suffice.”

“At least several batches, or even more than a dozen, might be necessary to have the chance of obtaining one.”

“Moreover, the Supreme Grade Cleansing Spirit Elixirs I need are not just one, but two…”

After hearing Yan Ming’s words, Lin Jing suddenly had a flash of understanding.

“Yan Daoyou, is this for Yan Xing and Yan Yue…”

Yan Ming nodded and said:

“Xing’er and Yue’er’s talents are simply too poor. If I, as their father, do not do something for them, then it’s very likely they will only reach the Golden Core Stage in this lifetime.”

“A cultivator at the Golden Core Stage has a lifespan of only five hundred years…”

“And I am already over three hundred years old. If I just let things be, it’s very possible I will face the tragedy of an elder burying the young.”

“That’s why I sought out Lin Daoyou…”

“As long as their Spiritual Root talents can be further enhanced, with the foundation of our Spirit Rock Island, we can push the two of them to the Nascent Soul Stage…”

“As for whether they can continue to improve beyond the Nascent Soul Stage, that will depend on their own fortunes.”

“As a father, this is all that I can do.”

“I hope Lin Daoyou can understand…”

Lin Jing looked at Yan Ming and couldn’t help but clasp his fist and say:

“Yan Daoyou, for the sake of your daughters, has gone to such lengths, which truly fills me with deep respect.”

“Leave the matter of alchemy to me.”

This statement came sincerely from Lin Jing’s heart.

After all, how much would Spirit Rock Island have to sacrifice for Yan Ming’s decision?

The Cleansing Spirit Elixir, as a Fifth-Rank Elixir Medicine, has materials that are already highly valuable in themselves.

Then there’s the Cleansing Spirit Liquid, which is even rarer and commands an exorbitant price.

Moreover, crafting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is not guaranteed success with just one batch.

Even if the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is crafted, it doesn’t mean the enhancement will surely be successful.

Different grades of the Cleansing Spirit Elixir contain different effects, meaning the probability of enhancing the Spiritual Root talent also varies.

For example:

Taking a Low-Grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir only has a 10% chance of improving one’s Spiritual Root.

Meanwhile, a Medium-Grade Cleansing Spirit Elixir has a 20% chance of enhancement.

A Superior Cleansing Spirit Elixir is much better, offering a 50% chance of raising the Spiritual Root talent by one grade.

And then there’s the Supreme Grade, probably the highest.

It has an 80% chance of upgrading one’s own Spiritual Root talent by one grade.

Of course.

This is under the condition that no Pure Elixir is available.

If it were a Pure Cleansing Spirit Elixir, then the chance is 100%, guaranteeing successful enhancement upon consumption.

However, compared to other Elixir Medicines, crafting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is somewhat more challenging and it is also hard to ensure its quality.
