Chapter 123 - 123 Reaching a Deal

"I will rearrange those two elixir medicines of fellow Daoist\'s for the upcoming auction,"

"It all depends on fellow Daoist\'s decision."

As Elder Bai\'s words fell, Lin Jing did not immediately respond, but instead bowed his head, lost in thought for a moment.

A moment later, Lin Jing looked up and spoke:

"I can..."

"I am also quite curious about that cultivation technique, so please, Elder Bai, lead the way."

"Good..."

"Fellow Daoist, please follow me."

Afterward, Elder Bai passed through the room, heading towards the inner chamber at the back.

Lin Jing promptly followed.

Upon entering the inner chamber, Lin Jing noticed an old man sitting there.

This elder had white and slightly thinning hair, though impeccably groomed, with sagging wrinkles on his face that looked somewhat unsettling.

Furthermore, compared to other elders Lin Jing had seen, this man appeared much older.

Recalling the rumors about the Zhang Family Patriarch, Lin Jing realized that the elder before him must be Zhang Chenfan, the Patriarch of the Zhang Family.

According to the outside world, he was over 500 years old.

The lifespan of a Golden Core Cultivator was generally around 500 years. Judging by his appearance, the rumors seemed to be true; the Patriarch\'s lifespan must not have much left.

As the two approached, the Zhang Family Patriarch stood up.

"Elder Bai."

After greeting Elder Bai, the Zhang Family Patriarch sized up Lin Jing, who was following behind, and then smiled as he spoke:

"I presume this must be the fellow Daoist with the Pure Accumulation Pill."

"I have seen Golden Core Immortal Chenfan." Lin Jing greeted with a bowing hand gesture.

To be able to cultivate to the Golden Core Stage with a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root, Lin Jing held great respect for this Zhang Family Patriarch.

"Fellow Daoist, no need for formalities,"

"I assume Elder Bai has already explained everything to fellow Daoist?" said the Zhang Family Patriarch.

"Elder Bai indeed has given a brief introduction about this trade to me,"

"But he did not elaborate on that cultivation technique. I am still somewhat in the dark and would appreciate it if Immortal Chenfan could provide a introduction." Lin Jing spoke frankly.

"That is, of course, possible," nodded the Zhang Family Patriarch.

"This cultivation technique is called \'The Immortal Five Elements Art\', quite famous. If fellow Daoist often ventures out, you must surely have heard of it."

Lin Jing spoke:

"I apologize, I seldom venture out, so I am not very familiar with this technique. I would still trouble Immortal Chenfan to explain it."

"Hehe, is that so..."

The Zhang Family Patriarch laughed softly, then gazed meaningfully at Lin Jing before continuing:

"This technique..."

"Unlike other techniques, it is most suitable for cultivation only by those with Spiritual Roots possessing all five attributes,"

"If cultivators with other types of Spiritual Roots practiced it, their cultivation speed would actually be quite slow."

"Hmm, Elder Bai did mention this,"

Lin Jing nodded.

"Because of this, this technique is not suitable for auction." Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"The reason I sought out fellow Daoist is because Elixir Valley can manufacture Pure Elixir Medicines which even cultivators with Five Elements Mixed Spirit Roots can cultivate."

"Thus, I thought fellow Daoist would be interested in this technique,"

"What if Elixir Valley runs into an alchemy prodigy with a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root? Couldn\'t you take the opportunity to nurture them?"

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think?"

After finishing, the Zhang Family Patriarch intently watched Lin Jing to gauge his reaction.

Clearly, the Patriarch considered him to be one of Elixir Valley\'s own.

However...

In the current situation, Lin Jing was still able to produce two Pure Accumulation Pills, so it was understandable for the Zhang Family Patriarch to assume he was someone from Elixir Valley.

Lin Jing had anticipated this reaction and did not respond, instead remaining calm and composed.

Next, Lin Jing neither admitted nor denied the assumption.

After a moment of thought, he nodded and said,

"I am indeed quite interested in this cultivation technique."

Seeing Lin Jing\'s composed demeanor, the Zhang Family Patriarch paused for a moment before continuing,

"This cultivation technique was something I acquired in a relic within the Demonic Monster Sea, but I only obtained the first three volumes."

"However, just these three volumes are already enough to cultivate to the peak of the Golden Core Stage."

"I think, a Golden Core cultivation technique in exchange for your two Pure Accumulation Pills should be sufficient, what do you think, fellow Daoist?"

Having said this, the Zhang Family Patriarch continued to look at Lin Jing.

"Real Person Chenfan is correct, it is indeed sufficient to trade the technique for those two Pure Accumulation Pills, and I am also quite interested in the Five Phases of Immortality Technique."

"It\'s just that, I have never seen this cultivation technique before..."

At this point, Lin Jing stopped speaking.

His implication could not have been clearer.

If it was going to be a transaction, there needed to be guarantees.

"Ahem..."

At this moment, Elder Bai lightly coughed from the side.

"Fellow Daoist need not worry, as the intermediary, it is natural for me to provide assurance."

"Besides, as a person from Elixir Valley, you just need to take it back, and have the Immortals in the valley take a look to verify."

After finishing, Elder Bai then asked, "Do you have any other concerns, fellow Daoist?"

"There is one more..."

Lin Jing spoke up,

"May I ask Real Person Chenfan, there is a rumor that you consumed a Life-Defying Fruit, I wonder if this is true or false?"

"Of course, I am just curious, and if Real Person Chenfan finds it inconvenient, there\'s no need to answer."

Upon hearing this, the Zhang Family Patriarch responded directly,

"This is not something secret, so I\'ll just tell you directly, it is false, I have never obtained a Life-Defying Fruit."

"The reason I could become a Golden Core Cultivator boils down to two things, the first being that this cultivation technique is indeed extraordinary."

"The second is that I have once obtained a few Cultivation True Elixirs, which allowed me to luckily advance to the Golden Core Stage."

"I see, thank you Real Person Chenfan for clearing up my questions."

"I have no other concerns, I agree to this trade," said Lin Jing.

"Since that\'s the case, Zhang Daoist, please present the cultivation technique you wish to trade."

As he said this, Elder Bai pulled out two Pure Jade Boxes, which contained the two Pure Accumulation Pills that belonged to Lin Jing.

The elixirs had been with Elder Bai all this time, and now he took them out.

The Zhang Family Patriarch then opened his Space Ring, and from within, he produced a Jade Slip.

It was at this moment that Lin Jing noticed the Zhang Family Patriarch possessed a Space Ring, indicative of the impressive haul from his past adventures.

After all, even Elder Bai, another Golden Core Immortal, was still using a Storage Bag.

Elder Bai received the Jade Slip, inserted his Divine Sense, and after about a quarter of an hour, he withdrew his sense and said to Lin Jing,

"The cultivation technique has no issues. If you are still not at ease, when you return, you can also have other Golden Core Immortals from the valley inspect it again. If any issues arise, I will bear the full responsibility."

"No need..."

"I naturally trust Elder Bai," Lin Jing said.

Elder Bai nodded, then handed the Jade Slip to Lin Jing and gave the two Pure Accumulation Pills to the Zhang Family Patriarch.

After receiving the Jade Slip, Lin Jing also sent his Divine Sense into it and indeed found the first three volumes of the Five Phases of Immortality Technique recorded inside.

The content was extensive, and Lin Jing didn\'t have the time to examine it in detail, merely glancing over it briefly before withdrawing his sense.

With that, the trade was finally complete.

"Real Person Chenfan, Elder Bai, I take my leave."

After completing the transaction, Lin Jing bid farewell to the two.

Then, Elder Bai called for Elder Yu, asking him to take Lin Jing back to the auction hall.
