Chapter 492: Chapter 492 - 188 The Strength of the Howling Sky Wolf Clan

And furthermore,

the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is different from other elixir medicines, as each person can only consume one in their lifetime.

Of course, unless you have a Pure Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

Even if you fail to enhance your spiritual root with other qualities of Cleansing Spirit Elixir, you can still remedy it with a Pure Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

But even with the Pure Cleansing Spirit Elixir, it can only enhance once; after a successful enhancement of one’s talents, taking another Pure Cleansing Spirit Elixir will have no effect whatsoever.

However, concocting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir is not easy to begin with, let alone the Pure Elixir Medicine, which is even more unimaginable.

Therefore, Yan Ming requested Lin Jing to refine at least a top-grade quality Cleansing Spirit Elixir.

“If so, I shall entrust this to Lin Daoyou,” Yan Ming said with a fist salute.

Lin Jing waved his hand quickly, saying,

“You’re too courteous, Daoyou…”

Having said that, Lin Jing continued to ask,

“I just wonder, how many spirit plants for concocting the Cleansing Spirit Elixir has Yan Daoyou collected?”

Yan Ming then spoke,

“Actually…”

“Ever since their birth, I have been looking for some Spiritual Treasure Elixir that can enhance the quality of the spiritual root.”

“During that time, I also collected a few drops of Cleansing Spirit Liquid.”

“However, after they each consumed it, although there were some improvements, it was still far from enhancing their spiritual roots.”

“With no other choice, I had to search again for other heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could enhance the quality of their spiritual roots.”

“I even inquired about the legendary Contrary Fate Fruit, but there was no news at all…”

“It wasn’t until an auction over a decade ago that I learned such an elixir medicine called the Cleansing Spirit Elixir was circulating among the top powers of the Inner Sea.”

At this point, Yan Ming said somewhat sheepishly,

“I do not wish to deceive Lin Daoyou; the friend I mentioned earlier who had obtained a fragmentary Cleansing Spirit Elixir recipe…”

“In fact, it wasn’t any friend, but myself…”

“I won that partial Cleansing Spirit Elixir recipe at the auction, and since then, I have begun collecting materials for it.”

“Up to now, aside from the few drops of Cleansing Spirit Liquid, only two drops remain. I only lack one main spirit plant to gather a full set of ingredients for the Cleansing Spirit Elixir.”

After hearing this, Lin Jing was extremely surprised. He hadn’t expected Yan Ming to have collected so much already, so Lin Jing asked,

“May I know which spirit plant Yan Daoyou is still missing?”

After pondering for a moment, Yan Ming replied,

“The accompanying Spirit Grass of the Cleansing Spirit Liquid, the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass.”

The White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass, as white as jade, resembles common weeds and is very easy to identify.

The White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass requires extremely harsh conditions for growth, only growing beside long-established Spiritual Springs.

For example, the Spiritual Spring in the Demon Race Secret Realm that we encountered earlier had only a small cupful of Cleansing Spirit Liquid, nowhere near enough to sustain the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass.

Therefore, there was no growth of the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass beside that Cleansing Spirit Pool.

To collect the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass, one must find a Spiritual Spring of older vintage with a greater abundance of Cleansing Spirit Liquid.

Such stringent conditions naturally make it hard to find.

Lin Jing then fell into deep thought. After a moment, he spoke,

“White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass is indeed difficult to find. We must first locate a Spiritual Spring before there’s any chance of finding the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass.”

Yan Ming also frowned and said,

“Indeed…”

“Nowadays, let alone an ancient Spiritual Spring, even a tiny Cleansing Spirit Pool is hard to come by, not to mention the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass.”

At that point, Lin Jing suddenly looked at Yan Ming and said,

“Speaking of the Cleansing Spirit Pool, I happen to know of a place that possesses one.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming immediately looked up at Lin Jing, asking with a look of surprise,

“Lin Daoyou knows the location of a Cleansing Spirit Pool?”

Lin Jing nodded and replied,

“Yes…”

“It’s just that we probably can’t enter that place now,”

“We can’t enter?”

“Secret Realm or relic?”

“Could it be a special relic in a closed state?”

Lin Jing shook his head and said,

“It’s not a relic, but a Secret Realm.”

“In the Nanzhou Underworld, there is a Demon Race Secret Realm with a Cleansing Spirit Pool inside. However, that Cleansing Spirit Pool is likely occupied by the Howling Sky Wolf Clan right now.”

“We simply can’t get past.”

“The Howling Sky Wolf Clan…” Yan Ming furrowed his brows, sinking into deep thought.

After a moment, Yan Ming spoke,

“I am aware that there have indeed been some issues in the Nanzhou Underworld and that the instigator is the Howling Sky Wolf Clan.”

Lin Jing nodded and said,

“That’s right…”

“It was through that Secret Realm that the Howling Sky Wolf Clan entered the Nanzhou Underworld.”

“The Cleansing Spirit Pool I spoke of is within that Secret Realm. However, there is not much Cleansing Spirit Liquid in that Secret Realm. It likely doesn’t have the White Jade Cleansing Spirit Grass that you’re looking for.”

Lin Jing’s words drew Yan Ming into contemplation.

After a while, having finished his thoughts, Yan Ming spoke,

“What Lin Daoyou has said should be correct…”

“If it were indeed an ancient Cleansing Spiritual Spring that has accumulated over time, it definitely wouldn’t have been kept secret.”

“It would only be those Cleansing Spirit Pools, not ancient and without much accumulated Cleansing Spirit Liquid, that would not become well-known.”

“I’m afraid that as soon as that Cleansing Spirit Liquid was discovered, it was completely divided up.”

After hearing this, Lin Jing nodded.

The Howling Sky Wolf Clan had seized the Cleansing Spirit Pool, but it was unknown if they would protect it like the three major Sects did.

But even if they protected it, what then?

There was just a pitcher’s worth of Cleansing Spirit Liquid, possibly not even a hundred drops, nowhere near enough to share.

Lin Jing remembered very clearly that he himself had continuously used the Cleansing Spirit Liquid for over a month, at least one drop every day.

Sometimes several drops in a day…

Even so, it took Lin Jing more than a month to enhance his natural talent.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

By that account, Lin Jing had consumed at least dozens of drops of Cleansing Spirit Liquid to improve his aptitude.

Even his enhancement was so difficult.

If the Howling Sky Wolf Clan encountered others who wanted to enhance their abilities, wouldn’t it mean at most one or two people could be improved before the Cleansing Spirit Liquid was exhausted?

In that case, how could it have become known?

……

At this moment, Qi Yan Zhenjun spoke,

“The current situation in the Nanzhou Underworld is not good to involve ourselves in…”

“It’s said that the Nanzhou Underworld has already lost ninety percent of its control, with less than ten percent still under the command of the three major Sects.”

“Even this is under the circumstance where the Howling Sky Wolf Clan has not fully mobilized.”

“If the Howling Sky Wolf Clan were to mobilize their entire clan, I estimate the three major Sects of the Nanzhou Underworld would have long been obliterated.”

Hearing this, Lin Jing asked Qi Yan Zhenjun,

“Qi Yan Daoyou…”

“Is the Howling Sky Wolf Clan really that powerful?”

Qi Yan Zhenjun nodded and replied,

“The Howling Sky Wolf Clan is also among the top five Demon Cultivator clans in the Western Demon Region.”

“If they were to fully mobilize, erasing all the Human Cultivators in the Nanzhou Underworld would be effortless.”

“The current stalemate exists mainly because they are still facing pressure from the Human Cultivators from the Western Demon Region.”

“That’s why…”

“The Howling Sky Wolf Clan dares not expend too much effort in the Nanzhou Underworld…”
