“Young Master Li.”

The man in black greeted the finely dressed youth with a clasped-hands salute.

It seemed that the man in black recognized him.

“Fellow Daoist, there’s no need for such formalities,” the finely dressed youth said with a gentle smile.

Then he turned his attention to Lin Jing:

“I’ve been paying attention to you for some time now…”

“Since you took out that Pure Energy Gathering Pill.”

Lin Jing was completely clueless, unsure why this finely dressed youth would take an interest in him.

After finishing his thought, the finely dressed young man continued:

“Let me introduce myself.”

“My name is Li Tangyu, from the alchemical Li Family, a prestigious family of the Alchemy Dao. I take the greatest pleasure in discussing alchemy with others. ”

“The alchemical Li Family?”

Lin Jing suddenly remembered—Elder Yu had mentioned that the Li Family was the only alchemy family in Fang Market.

And the Li Family’s patriarch was the only Fourth-Grade Alchemist in the entire Nanshan Market.

“So, it’s Fellow Daoist Li,” Lin Jing greeted with a clasped -hands salute. “May I know why Fellow Daoist Li is interested in me?” he said, puzzled.

“Because of the elixir medicine!” Li Tangyu began.

“Previously, at your stall, you displayed a Pure Energy Gathering Pill, which someone has just traded away.”

“However, what surprised me was that right after that, you directly presented the Pure Blood Coagulation Pill you have out now.”

“Of course, anybody with a bit of capability could produce two Pure Elixir

Medicines; that’s not particularly noteworthy.”

“The main point is…”

“If I’m not mistaken, both of these elixir medicines were recently created, and the time between producing both pills didn’t exceed one month.”

“Fellow Daoist, am I right?” Li Tangyu asked, with a smile on his lips, looking at Lin Jing.

The man in black, upon hearing Li Tangyu’s words, suddenly widened his eyes and turned his gaze to Lin Jing.

One month, two Pure Elixir Medicines…

This rekindled the once dormant excitement in his heart.

He knew Li Tangyu very well; he was from the prestigious Li Family of the Alchemy Dao and also the family’s Young Master.

Besides, Li Tangyu had an extraordinary alchemy talent and was a Second -Grade Alchemist.

There were also rumors that his accumulation was already sufficient and that it wouldn’t be long before he advanced to a Third-Grade Alchemist.

Saying nothing else, when it came to understanding of elixir medicines, probably no more than five people in the market could surpass him.

If he said that it didn’t exceed a month, then it certainly didn’t exceed a month.

“Correct,” Lin Jing admitted with a nod.

Upon receiving Lin Jing’s affirmation, Li Tangyu smiled:

“Just as I thought.”

Then, fearing Lin Jing might overthink it, he hurriedly explained:

“Please don’t take offense, Fellow Daoist. I have a deep obsession with the Alchemy Dao and can’t help but to observe when I come across elixir medicines. It’s not that I’m singling you out,” he assured.

After hearing this, Lin Jing pointed to the man in black and said with a frown:

“But…”

“What did Fellow Daoist Li mean when he mentioned earlier that I was the only one who could present the elixir medicine he needed?”

“Because, Fellow Daoist, if you can produce two Pure Elixir Medicines within just a single month, or perhaps even more than two…”

“Then there’s only one possibility…”

“That is, you are able to improve the success rate of crafting Pure Elixir Medicines.”

Li Tangyu’s gaze was intense as he stared at Lin Jing, his tone very confident.

Lin Jing’s heart skipped a beat, and he was suddenly taken aback.

“Could that really be discerned?”

“The Pure Elixir Medicines I’ve crafted were enhanced by the system; there shouldn’t be any flaws, right?”

Li Tangyu’s certainty made Lin Jing feel a wave of insecurity inside.

Equally startled was the man in black.

He was also familiar with the Alchemy Technique, and the ability to increase the success rate of alchemy indeed seemed exaggerated.

However, unlike Lin Jing’s reaction, his heart grew increasingly fervent.

“If that’s the case, then the Pure Body Restoration Pill he needs would have a place to go.”

Thinking of this, the man in black grew excited.

Next, Li Tangyu continued to speak:

“If I’m not mistaken, fellow Daoist must be an inheritor of the Ancient Alchemy

Path, ”

“Before this, I wasn’t sure whether the Ancient Alchemy Path had been lost, but after meeting you, I’m certain that you’re definitely an inheritor.”

“Because only the Alchemy Techniques from the Ancient Era could increase the success rate of Pure Elixir Medicine.’

Hearing this, Lin Jing finally let out a sigh of relief. “So he thinks I’m an inheritor of the Ancient Alchemy Path. ”

Lin Jing didn’t affirm or deny it, but was instead thinking.

Was it possible to use the identity of an inheritor of the Ancient Alchemy Path to create Pure Elixir Medicine so that in the future, no one would suspect him when he produced more of it?

But then, this meant that his own identity would require even more secrecy. If he carelessly exposed his true identity, it would put him in great danger.

Seeing that Lin Jing did not retort, the man in black bowed to him and said:

“Please assist me in crafting a Pure Body Restoration Pill. On the day of its completion, I will surely give you a heavy reward.”

Nonetheless, Lin Jing still did not respond, and the two remained motionless, waiting for Lin Jing’s answer.

After a while, Lin Jing spoke:

“I’m not very confident about one month.”

The man in black immediately became overjoyed and hastily said, “Thank you, fellow Daoist. ‘

“Don’t worry about it. If it’s really not successful, it can only be said that it is fate, and I won’t blame anyone.”

“Rest assured, if you can craft the Pure Body Restoration Pill, I will gift you 10,000 Spirit Stones. If you fail, I will also give you 2,000 Spirit Stones as compensation.”

Li Tangyu also spoke up at this time:

“How about including me as well?”

“I’d like to wager with you, fellow Daoist. I will also begin crafting Elixir

Medicine when I return, also aiming to produce the Rejuvenation Elixir.”

“Likewise, within one month, I’d like to see how the inheritance Alchemy

Techniques of the Li Family compare to the Ancient Alchemy Path”

“Fellow Daoist, what do you think?”

Li Tangyu’s eyes were earnest as he looked at Lin Jing, and by his demeanor, he did not appear to be joking.

Lin Jing frowned, he was not very keen on competing in alchemy techniques.

“Fellow Daoist Li, let’s not gamble on the Elixir Medicine.”

Lin Jing said.

Li Tangyu was initially taken aback, then pondered for a moment:

“I presume that, as an inheritor of the Ancient Alchemy Path, you’ve come to this black market to avoid exposing your identity.”

“Rest assured, fellow Daoist, this matter will only be known to the three of us, and it will not be divulged to outsiders. Additionally, you can rest assured about your identity; the black market is very safe and will not reveal it carelessly. ”

“I, too, couldn’t help but want to witness an Ancient Alchemy practitioner’s skills, so I hope fellow Daoist can indulge me.”

Seeing Li Tangyu’s sincere gaze and knowing his obsession with the Alchemy Dao, Lin Jing believed he could be trusted, so he agreed.

“Alright then.”

Li Tangyu’s eyes clearly lit up with excitement.

“Thank you for obliging, fellow Daoist.’

“Since it is a wager, I shall add a bonus to it.”

As he spoke, Li Tangyu took out a wooden box from his Storage Bag and immediately opened it.

Lin Jing looked inside and saw a pit that resembled a peach kernel.

This was the core of a Stay-Young Fruit, which, given the right conditions, could grow into a Stay-Young Fruit tree. However, the tree required harsh conditions to grow and was almost impossible to cultivate successfully.

Even so, the value of this Stay-Young Fruit core was not low, and it could fetch around 20,000 to 30,000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

“Fellow Daoist, if you win, this Stay-Young Fruit core is yours.”

“If it happens that I win by a small margin, fellow Daoist need not contribute anything, and I will give you 1,000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones as gratitude.”

An offer like this, where he wouldn’t lose out regardless of the outcome, was too good to pass up.

Lin Jing didn’t quite know what to say at the moment..
