The next dayâŠ
Lin Jing was in the System Space, training in the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique, when the system warning sounded at this moment.
âWarning!â
âSomeone has intruded into the warning perimeter, please host respond in time.â
Hearing the system warning, Lin Jing paused for a moment, then a huge boulder, several feet tall, in front of Lin Jing suddenly split silently into two halves.
âBoomâŠâ
The boulder collapsed to both sides, kicking up a cloud of dust.
At this time, a transparent object flew towards Lin Jing, and the aura emanating from this object was extremely faint; if one were not careful, it would be very hard to detect.
The transparent object stopped right in front of Lin Jing and was then grabbed by him,
It turned out that this transparent object was the Flawless Sword.
The boulder just now had clearly been split by this Flawless Sword.
The reason the Flawless Sword could move so silently was entirely the merit of the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.
During this period, Lin Jing, besides Alchemy, had also taken out some time to specialize in training the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.
By now, Lin Jing had cultivated the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique to the third layer,
The power exhibited by the third layer of the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique was slightly stronger than other Foundation Establishment Stage Sword Control Techniques.
Furthermore, upon reaching the third layer, the Ling Yin Imperial Sword
Techniqueâs ability to conceal was even more superior. If he were to launch a sneak attack on a cultivator at the early Foundation Establishment, they might not be able to react in time.
Of course, if faced with a mid or late Foundation Establishment cultivator, then the concealing effect of the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique might be greatly reduced.
Unless, Lin Jing continued to advance the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique to the fourth layer.
Then it might still be possible to pose a threat to mid or late Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Afterward, Lin Jing put away the Flawless Sword, and then spoke:
âSystem, restore the terrainâŠâ
As Lin Jingâs words fellâŠ
Immediately after, the huge boulder in front of Lin Jing, as well as the area of the Stone Forest full of giant rocks ahead, started collapsing, falling to the ground and slowly turning back into rocks,
Then, the ashen rocks also gradually changed color, ultimately turning back to the sandy yellow soil.
During this time, Lin Jing had been practicing the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique in this manner.
The transformed terrain could be freely destroyed by Lin Jing; in the end, it could all be restored.
After restoring the terrain, Lin Jing activated Observation Mode to take a look around.
When he saw the Pill Master surnamed Wang standing outside the door, the corners of Lin Jingâs mouth slightly curled up.
âHere he comesâŠâ
Then, he left the System Space.
After leaving the System Space, Lin Jing walked out of the room and towards the door of the yard.
Walking along the road, Lin Jing looked up at the sun above his head, which had already risen quite high.
Since yesterday, when Lin Jing heard that the Pill Master surnamed Wang would come today, he had been waiting for him. Lin Jing had actually expected him to arrive early in the morning.
For this reason, Lin Jing had waited for some time, and when he did not show up, Lin Jing entered the System Space to cultivate the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.
Upon reaching the door, Lin Jing stretched out his hand and opened the gate.
Seeing the Pill Master surnamed Wang standing at the door.
The Pill Master surnamed Wang, seeing Lin Jing, spoke first:
âLin Daoyou, I hope I am not intruding. I didnât interrupt your Alchemy today, did I?â
Lin Jing shook his head and replied, âI was just cultivating, why did Wang Daoyou come now?â
The Pill Master surnamed Wang looked around quietly and then spoke softly:
âLin Daoyou, about the matter we discussed a few days ago, I was wondering how you have considered it?â
After listening, Lin Jing frowned slightly, appearing to be in quite a dilemma. âDaoyou, please come inside to discuss furtherâŠâ
Saying this, Lin Jing stepped aside to let the Pill Master surnamed Wang in.
âIt really isnât appropriate to speak of such confidential matters at the doorstep. â
âAlrightâŠâ
The surnamed Wang Pill Master didnât delay and walked straight in.
Upon entering the courtyard, the surnamed Wang Pill Master opened the conversation:
âLin Daoyou, do you have any concerns?â
Lin Jing then sighed and said,
âWithout concealment from Wang Daoyou, indeed, I have seriously considered the matter you mentioned and am inclined to go there, but recently I have indeed been rather busy.â
At this, the surnamed Wang Pill Master said, âLin Daoyou, whatever youâre busy with can be postponed for now. As you know, opportunities wait for no one.â
âThis secret cave abode is indeed hidden, and currently, I am the only one who Imows about itâŠâ
âBut the formation originally used to conceal the cave abode has been accidentally damaged by me, and occasionally, some aura may leak out. Thereâs no guarantee when it might be discovered by others.â
âIf you continue to hesitate, I may have to find someone elseâŠâ After finishing his statement, the surnamed Wang Pill Master continued:
âYou need to realize, that is a Fourth Grade Pill Masterâs cave abode, any item you obtain there would be extremely rare and precious.â
âWang Daoyou, you must think this through,â Lin Jing urged.
Lin Jing then lowered his head and hesitated for a moment before suddenly raising it as if he had made up his mind, looking at the surnamed Wang Pill Master:
âDaoyou, in that caseâŠâ
âIâve decided to go with you to the cave abode, but not right now. I still have some matters to deal with, and afterward, I need to prepareâŠâ
âIt might take a few daysâŠâ
âDaoyou has made up his mind, that is truly wonderfulâŠâ the surnamed Wang Pill Master said joyfully.
âOf course, preparation is necessary, not just for Lin Daoyou, but for myself as well. May I know how long you need to prepare?â
âThree daysâŠâ Lin Jing replied. âThree days should be about rightâŠâ
âAlrightâŠâ the surnamed Wang Pill Master said:
âYou prepare first in these three days, and I will also make some preparationsâŠâ
âAfter three days, I will come here, and we will go to the cave abode together.â
âAlrightâŠâ Lin Jing replied.
âAlso, the Cleansing Spirit Flower you promisedâŠâ
Afterward, a trace of greed flashed in Lin Jingâs eyes as he looked at the surnamed Wang Pill Master.
Since the surnamed Wang Pill Master believed him to be inherently greedy, then he would just act as wished.
âLin Daoyou, rest assured, I do not have the root of the Cleansing Spirit Flower with me right now. In three days, when we set off, I will make sure to give it to Lin Daoyou,â the surnamed Wang Pill Master patted his chest and promised.
âIn that case, we have an agreementâŠâ Lin Jing said.
âMhm, please be at ease, Daoyou,â the surnamed Wang Pill Master replied.
Following that, the two had a further conversation, and then the surnamed Wang Pill Master left.
After the surnamed Wang Pill Master had gone, Lin Jing changed his clothes and disguise, then left the house.
This time, he arrived at an alley not far from the Liu Clan. Taking advantage of no one being around, Lin Jing entered the System Space.
All along the wayâŠ
Lin Jing didnât dare to delay, wanting to get there before the surnamed Wang Pill Masterâs arrival.
To eavesdrop on their plan.
Lin Jing knew that if everything went as expected,
the surnamed Wang Pill Master would definitely come here as soon as possible to report this news to Liu Yiyuan.
And Lin Jing himself only needed to wait here for his quarry to appear..
