Soon enough, the meal was ready.

Huang Qingling, momentarily letting Little Sparrow be, returned inside with the two of them to start enjoying the feast.

Even Little Sparrow wasn’t neglected by Lin Jing, who had prepared plenty of food for it too.

After all, had it not been for Little Sparrow, Lin Jing might never have thought that the other jade pendant was with Huang Qingling.

Let alone to have now obtained the complete Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon.

However, the Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon was, after all, a Golden Core Magic Treasure.

Taking Huang Qingling’s jade pendant, and gaining such a huge advantage from her, just for cooking a few meals, probably wasn’t even worth a fraction of the pendant’s value.

Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel somewhat guilty inside.

During the meal, Lin Jing asked Huang Qingling.

“Cultivator Qingling. ”

“Do you have anything you want, or something you’d like to do? I’ll see if I can help you in any way.”

“????” Huang Qingling, who was gnawing on a chicken leg, looked up in confusion at Lin Jing.

“I just feel that the jade pendant is too valuable for you to just give it to me like that, I always feel like I owe you something.”

Huang Qingling put the chicken leg back in her bowl and spoke earnestly,

“Not at all, I think it’s a great deal. Exchanging a magic treasure I don’t like for delicious food I do like, isn’t that good?”

‘ Lin Jing was speechless but thought it over and realized it seemed to make sense.

“But…” Huang Qingling paused here, tilting her head in thought for a moment.

“What I want the most is the Eternal Youth Elixir. I’ve heard that not only does it preserve youth forever after taking it, but it even enhances one’s charm, making one even more beautiful.”

The Eternal Youth Elixir is made from the Eternal Youth Fruit along with other Spirit Grasses; Low Grade Elixirs have effects but come with time restrictions.

A Low Grade Eternal Youth Elixir can maintain one’s appearance unchanged for a hundred years, a Medium Grade for three hundred years, and a Superior Grade for five hundred.

Even a top-grade Eternal Youth Elixir can only maintain one’s looks for a thousand years.

Only the Eternal Youth Elixir can maintain one’s youthful appearance forever, regardless of time.

Even for some cultivators who have aged in appearance, the Eternal Youth Elixir can rejuvenate them, restoring their looks to their youthful state.

Moreover, after taking the Eternal Youth Elixir, it will exude a unique charm based on one’s own temperament.

Then, Huang Qingling continued,

“Of course, if you could help me find the Eternal Youth Elixir, no matter what you want, I can satisfy your request.”

However, Lin Jing responded to Huang Qingling with…

“I go…”

Huang Qingling immediately had a full face of dumbfounded lines, with an odd look in her eyes at Lin Jing.

Lin Jing, realizing something was amiss, quickly tried to rectify it. “Sorry, Cultivator Qingling, I just suddenly remembered something… ‘

“Very sorry…”

After Lin Jing finished speaking, Huang Qingling withdrew her odd look,

“Your reaction was so big, I thought I had scared you by mentioning the Eternal

Youth Elixir.”

“Heh heh…”

Lin Jing chuckled awkwardly, then said,

“No… Not at all… You’re thinking too much, Cultivator Qingling.”

The reason Lin Jing had such a big reaction was that…

Only when Huang Qingling mentioned it did he remember that he still had a core of the Eternal Youth Fruit.

This was something he had won from a bet with Li Tangyu before.

Since the Spirit Field in the System Space was already filled with Spirit Plants needed for concocting Elixir Medicines,

Lin Jing had thought that once those Spirit Plants matured, he would then plant the core of the Eternal Youth Fruit in the System Space.

But gradually, he forgot about it.

It wasn’t until just now, when Huang Qingling mentioned the Eternal Youth Fruit, that Lin Jing remembered.

The spotless Eternal Youth Elixir that Huang Qingling needed may be troublesome for others, but for Lin Jing, it was no big deal.

As long as he could grow the Eternal Youth Fruit Tree and obtain its fruit, wouldn’t he be able to make the Eternal Youth Elixir with ease?

After that, Lin Jing said to Huang Qingling,

“Qing Ling, don’t worry, I will do my best to obtain the spotless Eternal Youth Elixir for you. ”

“You…?” Huang Qingling sized up Lin Jing.

Then she sighed.

“Forget it, being able to eat the food you cook often is satisfaction enough for me.”

Clearly, Huang Qingling didn’t believe that Lin Jing could obtain the spotless Eternal Youth Elixir.

Lin Jing didn’t explain any further.

After the meal, Huang Qingling left with Little Sparrow.

After the two departed, Lin Jing entered the System Space.

Looking at the Spirit Field before him, he saw the Spirit Plants growing rampantly.

After thinking for a bit, Lin Jing decided to uproot a few nearly mature Spirit

Plants to make some space, and planted the kernel of the Eternal Youth Fruit.

He then came to a piece of Spirit Field, uprooting several non-precious Spirit Plants.

Next, he took out the kernel of the Eternal Youth Fruit from his Storage Bag.

He dug a hole in the Spirit Field and planted it.

However, as soon as the kernel of the Eternal Youth Fruit was planted, a system prompt came.

“System prompt: Advanced Spirit Plant cultivation detected, activating Spirit Field environmental adjustment function.” (Note: This function simulates the optimal growing environment for the advanced Spirit Plants within the Spirit Field, thereby accelerating their growth.)

“System prompt: Advanced Spirit Plant ‘Eternal Youth Fruit Tree’ detected, the optimal environment is Uninhabited Mountains. Host, would you like to adjust Spirit Field One to the environment of Uninhabited Mountains?” (Note: The environmental adjustment is confined within this Spirit Field and will not affect other Spirit Fields.)

Subsequently, a panel appeared before Lin Jing.

On the panel, 30 squares were clearly displayed, representing Lin Jing’s 30-acre Spirit Field, each with a number assigned to it.

At that moment, Spirit Field One was flashing red, the plot where the Eternal Youth Fruit Tree was planted.

“Mountain environment…” Lin Jing stroked his chin, looking at the Spirit Field in front of him, pondering.

In this Spirit Field, besides the recently planted Eternal Youth Fruit Tree, there were many other Spirit Plants.

If he rashly changed the environment, it would certainly affect the other plants, which might even die off completely.

And since these Spirit Plants were about to mature, it wouldn’t be worth it if changing the Spirit Field’s environment killed them all.

After thinking for a while, Lin Jing decided not to change the environment for now.

“System, do not change the environment.”

After Lin Jing spoke, the panel disappeared.

“System, is it possible to check the status of advanced Spirit Plants?”

“Master, it is possible.”

“System, display the current status of the Eternal Youth Fruit Tree,” Lin Jing requested.

Then, a system panel appeared in the space above where the Eternal Youth Fruit Tree kernel was planted, displaying the information of the tree.

“Eternal Youth Fruit Tree: Current environment mismatch, slow growth in progress, time remaining until maturity: 30 years and 52 days.”

Lin Jing was speechless; an Eternal Youth Fruit Tree required 30 years to mature.

However, this was under mismatched environmental conditions and the growth was slow.

He would have to wait until the rest of the Spirit Plants in Spirit Field One matured and were harvested.

Then he could change the environment of Spirit Field One and see how it goes. And these Spirit Plants would mature in about two months, so the wait

wouldn’t be too long..
