Chapter 862: Chapter 385: The End of the Third Contest Chapter 862: Chapter 385: The End of the Third Contest However, when Lin Jing turned his head to look at her, she quickly turned away as if she dared not et his gaze.
This action by the Holy Maiden of the Tianyun Holy Sect left Lin Jing perplexed.
Could it be that she knew him?
Just as Lin Jing was puzzled, Elder Lei, who sat next to him, stood up and announced the start of the third Alchemy Conference.
As soon as Elder Lei finished speaking, the Pill Masters participating in the conference below began to take action.
And the Cultivators watching the conference in the stands were also drawn in, turning their attention to the events unfolding.
Elder Lei looked around and then sat down.
...
As soon as he sat down, Elder Lei leaned close to Lin Jing and said,
“Lin lad…”
“Earlier, I saw you looking at our Tianyun Holy Sect’s Holy Maiden, do you perhaps know her?”
As soon as Elder Lei finished speaking, Lin Jing quickly responded,
“Senior misunderstands, we have never t face-to-face, I am just a bit curious.”
Elder Lei nodded upon hearing this and then looked towards the Holy Maiden,
“This young girl has lived in our Tianyun Holy Sect since childhood and is dearly loved by everyone in the sect.”
“To tell you the truth, she is also an exceptionally talented in Alchemy Dao.
If nothing unexpected occurs, she is certainly expected to place in the top three of this competition, and might even win the championship.”
However, just at that mont, Elder Lei suddenly changed his tone,
“Initially…”
“This young lady’s talent is astonishing, and she is the pride of everyone in our Tianyun Holy Sect.
ṅοѵǤᴑ.сο
Even I have high hopes for her.”
As he said this, Elder Lei looked at Lin Jing as if he were seeing so incredible creature, sizing him up and down before sighing deeply,
“But compared to you, her Alchemic Talent seems rather insignificant.”
“I truly don’t know what kind of monstrous talent you are to have advanced so quickly.”
After saying this, without waiting for Lin Jing to respond, Elder Lei continued talking and asked Lin Jing,
“Speaking of which…”
“I rember you’re also not yet three hundred years old, right?”
As Elder Lei spoke these words, the other Elders also looked over.
Facing the Elders’ gazes, Lin Jing felt sowhat uneasy and could only give a forced smile, saying to Elder Lei,
“Yes, senior…”
Elder Lei, undeterred, nodded slightly,
“Under three hundred years old, an Eighth Grade Pill Master, and also Cultivation…”
“Cough…”
Elder Lei was saying this when the Elixir Alliance Hierarch, sitting in the middle, coughed lightly and then spoke,
“Regarding Lin Jing’s real age and Cultivation, Elder Bai inford you a few days ago, do not forget it.”
Hearing this, Elder Lei hastily fell silent and then gave an embarrassed smile,
“A slip of the tongue, my apologies…”
“Alliance Hierarch, please rest assured, this matter will not be disclosed.”
After this reminder from the Alliance Hierarch, the other Elders no longer continued to focus on Lin Jing, instead turning their heads to watch the events in the pavilion.
Only Elder Lei, at this mont, leaned close to Lin Jing and whispered,
“Lin lad, what do you think of our Tianyun Holy Sect’s Holy Maiden?
Are you interested in becoming our Tianyun Holy Sect’s son-in-law?”
Elder Lei’s words were so sudden that Lin Jing, caught off guard, even choked on his breath.
“Cough…cough…”
Lin Jing had to cough twice and tried to ease the awkwardness,
“Senior jests…”
But hearing this, another Elder nad Li beside Elder Lei turned his head, looking towards Elder Lei teasingly,
“With your entire Tianyun Holy Sect treasuring this young maiden so much, are you really willing to give her away?”
Elder Lei responded,
“How is it giving her away?
Didn’t I just say, we’d take Lin lad as our Tianyun Holy Sect’s son-in-law.”
“With Lin lad’s talent, he is more than a match for our Holy Maiden.”
Upon hearing this, Elder Li rolled his eyes,
“You really know how to wish for the best…”
“With Lin lad’s talent, not to ntion your Tianyun Holy Sect, which force in the entire Cultivation World wouldn’t scramble to have him?”
“If Lin lad is willing to co to our Qinglin Daoist Institute, we would imdiately regard him as our Daoist Disciple, and even directly groom him as the next leader.”
As the two spoke freely, Lin Jing, caught in the middle, once again attracted the attention of the other Elders.
However, their conversation also prompted another reminder from the Alliance Hierarch,
“Both of you, that’s enough…”
“Lin Jing has his legacy, and won’t join any of your Sects.
Right now, the competition is underway; let’s focus on the contest and drop the matter of Lin Jing.
No further discussion is needed.”
Following the Alliance Hierarch’s remarks, the two imdiately behaved and turned their attention back to the pavilion.
Lin Jing also breathed a sigh of relief and directed his attention to the pavilion.
At this point, the competition had just begun; everyone was engaged in the first step of Alchemy, performing initial Refinent on the materials they had just received.
Among the competitors, their Cultivation varied widely, and even the flas they wielded differed.
So participants used only the flas controlled by Cultivators themselves and began Alchemy with at most one Art of Fire Control.
Others, backed by powerful forces, had obtained special flas, enhancing the strength of their fire.
Consequently, their Refinent speeds also varied.
Soon…
Soone completed the Refinent of materials, and this individual was none other than the Holy Maiden of the Tianyun Holy Sect.
Following her completion of Refinent, the Sect Master’s son from Ziyun Pill Sect and the Loose Cultivator also quickly finished their Refinent.
