Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: Shut Up
These Divine Pill Masters, only Jie An stepped forward to greet Jing Yan. The others simply looked at Jing Yan with peculiar expressions.
Xiao Wangyue glanced at Jing Yan but did not speak. Behind him, several Supreme Elders sparsely greeted Jing Yan.
Xiao Wangyue did not speak, and Jing Yan naturally had no intention of initiating a conversation with him.
After seeing the Lan Wood Spiritual Root of Yunxia Sect, Jing Yan’s face became solemn as well. Before arriving, he hadn’t expected Yunxia Sect’s Lan Wood Spiritual Root to be in such dire straits.
Jing Yan swiftly moved forward, arriving near the Lan Wood Spiritual Root.
Life aura completely chaotic.
Though the spiritual energy it released was still abundant, this had already reached the last bit of potential of the Lan Wood Spiritual Root, clearly it couldn’t last much longer.
Jing Yan quickly channeled his Divine Power, simultaneously extending his Divine Thought to envelop the Lan Wood Spiritual Root.
"A pretentious little thief, you think you can heal the Lan Wood Spiritual Root? Boy, our issue isn’t over for you scheming against me with the Void Breaking Pill!" Pill Master Zhen Qing stared disdainfully at Jing Yan.
"Shut up!" Jing Yan turned his gaze fiercely, glaring at Zhen Qing.
Zhen Qing’s expression froze.
"Pill Master Zhen Qing, please refrain from speaking and disrupting Alchemist Yan Jin," Qi Mei said coldly.
"Now, no one should make any noise disrupting Alchemist Yan Jin while he examines the Lan Wood Spiritual Root. Pill Master Zhen Qing, whatever grudge you have with Alchemist Yan Jin, resolve it once we leave here," Xiao Wangyue also spoke, looking at Zhen Qing.
Though he didn’t believe Jing Yan’s arrival could help the sect’s Lan Wood Spiritual Root, there was no other option now. They couldn’t hope for the Lan Wood Spiritual Root to improve on its own.
So no matter what, they should wait for Yan Jin to examine the Lan Wood Spiritual Root before discussing further.
Seeing Xiao Wangyue personally speak, Zhen Qing grunted but refrained from continuing to insult Jing Yan. The other Divine Pill Masters certainly wouldn’t speak against Xiao Wangyue at this time.
A few breaths later.
"Damn it!" Jing Yan cursed softly.
"Who was the fool that used Jade Essence to water the Lan Wood Spiritual Root?" Jing Yan’s eyes coldly scanned everyone present.
He had discovered that just a moment ago, the Lan Wood Spiritual Root absorbed Jade Essence.
Upon hearing Jing Yan, Zhen Qing’s heart twitched, his eyes revealing a trace of surprise.
This Yan Jin actually detected the Lan Wood Spiritual Root had absorbed Jade Essence so quickly. Zhen Qing hadn’t expected this.
"Sect Master Qi Mei, what’s this about? Why use Jade Essence on the Lan Wood Spiritual Root? It must’ve been after using Jade Essence that the Lan Wood Spiritual Root ended up like this, right?" Jing Yan looked at Qi Mei and asked.
When Qi Mei previously visited Piaomiao Pill Tower to find him, she hadn’t mentioned the Lan Wood Spiritual Root had been watered with Jade Essence.
When Jing Yan first saw the Lan Wood Spiritual Root, he was puzzled, as Qi Mei had told Hao Yuntian months ago that although there were issues with the Lan Wood Spiritual Root, it could potentially last another hundred years at most. Yet now, it couldn’t possibly last even three to five years.
Now he understood, the Lan Wood Spiritual Root had been watered with that damn Jade Essence.
For some plants nearing the end of their Life Span, Jade Essence can indeed stimulate their last bit of potential, making precious plants exhibit their final value. However, from another perspective, Jade Essence is undoubtedly a deadly poison for such plants.
After finding the Jade Essence, it’s no wonder Jing Yan was furious.
These idiots, truly foolish.
Such a precious Lan Wood Spiritual Root, so corrupted. Though the Lan Wood Spiritual Root in front of him isn’t his, Jing Yan still felt distressed.
If he could obtain a Lan Wood Spiritual Root for his Qiankun Small World, he wouldn’t need to search for places like Divine Spring Hall for cultivation.
"Mr. Yan Jin, don’t be angry. That Jade Essence was applied by Pill Master Zhen Qing," Qi Mei quickly said.
In her heart, Qi Mei felt joy because this Alchemist Yan Jin indeed had the ability, quickly discovering the Lan Wood Spiritual Root had been watered with Jade Essence.
She gradually felt a bit of hope.
"Alchemist Yan Jin, does the Jade Essence significantly harm the Lan Wood Spiritual Root? Is there a way to remedy it?" Sect Master Qi Mei immediately asked.
"Jade Essence is essentially a poison to precious plants; how can it not cause severe damage? Look at the Lan Wood Spiritual Root now; it’ll be completely dead in three years at most," Jing Yan said irritably.
Zhen Qing suddenly shouted, "Yan Jin, stop spewing nonsense here. What’s poison? The Lan Wood Spiritual Root’s Life Span is exhausted; without Jade Essence to stimulate its potential, what should we do? I just didn’t expect the Lan Wood Spiritual Root to be in such a decayed state near its limit, and Jade Essence couldn’t achieve the desired effect."
"Shut up!" Jing Yan’s cold, sharp eyes swept over Zhen Qing.
This Zhen Qing, such a worthless wretch, truly unexpected to Jing Yan.
"Qi Mei, did you mention to Yan Jin that Zhen Qing used Jade Essence on the Lan Wood Spiritual Root?" Xiao Wangyue transmitted to Qi Mei in inquiry.
"I absolutely didn’t mention it; I feared Alchemist Yan Jin wouldn’t come upon hearing this. So I didn’t tell him. Alchemist Yan Jin discovered it himself." Qi Mei immediately transmitted back.
Xiao Wangyue didn’t continue transmitting, only furrowing his eyebrows tighter.
"You..." Zhen Qing trembled, pointing at Jing Yan.
"Zhen Qing, shut up!" Xiao Wangyue’s eyes glinted with killing intent, shouting at Zhen Qing.
Qi Mei then said, "Alchemist Yan Jin, please make sure to think of a solution."
Even if it’s just remedying the Jade Essence’s damage to the Lan Wood Spiritual Root, that would be good! If recovery is possible, the Lan Wood Spiritual Root could at least last for several decades.
"Hmm, I’ll do my best. Fortunately, not much time has passed; if it were a few hours later, the Lan Wood Spiritual Root would be completely done for." Jing Yan nodded and said.
Hearing this, Qi Mei’s joy was finally uncontainable.
Even Xiao Wangyue’s frown relaxed considerably.
Several Supreme Elders from Yunxia Sect exchanged glances, each showing expressions of joy.
As for those High-level Divine Pill Masters, they were somewhat dazed. Despite racking their brains, they couldn’t think of a way to counteract the effects of Jade Essence.
Could this Yan Jin truly have a solution?
Everyone present was turning these thoughts over in their minds.
Jing Yan didn’t say more but instead began extracting several Divine Grasses, compressing them with Divine Power to extract their juice.
Not using the Jade Bottle for gathering, the extracted juice was instantly dispersed by Jing Yan onto the yellowing Lan Wood Spiritual Root.
After the juice was absorbed into the Lan Wood Spiritual Root, Jing Yan observed carefully. Moments later, his tense mood slightly relaxed.
