Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Elder Yu pondered for a moment and said, "You've considered this well, but we still need to bring Elder Bai into this matter. Now that you are a Pill Master serving under Yuebaolou, he can't openly harm you." "But I know that man is vengeful. If he learns that you are unharmed, he will definitely still try to plot against you." "To completely settle this matter, we also need to inform Elder Bai." "During this time, just stay indoors like before, and that will be fine." "You don't need to attend the auction either. If nothing unexpected happens, Liu Yiyuan will definitely be there." After Elder Yu finished speaking, he looked at Huang Qingling, whose fists were tightly clenched and whose face was full of anger. "Qing Ling, don't act rashly. We must notify Elder Bai first about this matter." "I understand, Elder Yu," Huang Qingling said indignantly. Actually... Lin Jingzhi had another reason for not attending the auction. That was, he planned to use the Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon to change his appearance and assume a different identity to attend the auction himself. Previously, Lin Jing had seen many enticing items on the auction list, which greatly intrigued him. If he went with Elder Yu, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to make a move. If he wanted to acquire them, his only option was to change his identity and participate in the auction. To participate in the auction, naturally, he needed a large amount of Spirit Stones. A couple of days ago in the black market, he had sold those First Rank Pure Elixirs, plus the two that were sold at a high price to the man in red and Liu Yiyuan. He had obtained a total of 230 Midium Grade Spirit Stones. With these Spirit Stones, plus those that Lin Jing had saved up before, altogether... Lin Jing did the math, and he had a total of 847 Midium Grade Spirit Stones and over 13,000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones. Were these Spirit Stones a lot? Many. Most Foundation Establishment Cultivators did not even have one-tenth of what Lin Jing possessed. But to say it was a small amount, it was also quite little. The auction Lin Jing was planning to attend was no ordinary event. Participants could easily bring out thousands of Midium Grade Spirit Stones without a problem. So, Lin Jing was still in need of Spirit Stones, a great need. If he missed out on the good items at the auction, finding them later would be even harder. Like that Biling Flower root, it would not be anywhere near as expensive as the Biling Flower itself, even at the auction. Lin Jing was determined to secure it, for if he missed this opportunity, encountering a Biling Flower again would cost ten times more than the root. Soon, the group finished eating. Elder Yu and Huang Qingling were also about to leave. Before leaving, Elder Yu specifically gave some more advice. He told Lin Jing that unless necessary, it was still best to go out less, as before. Since Elder Bai was currently busy with the auction and not at Yuebaolou, Elder Yu would speak to him about this matter once he returned. Even Huang Qingling consoled Lin Jing before leaving, which made Lin Jing somewhat bemused. It made it seem as though he was the victim. However, if Liu Yiyuan were to learn of this matter, he could indeed become a victim. After sending off the two, Lin Jing cleaned up the dining utensils and then headed to the pavilion. He pondered ways to earn Spirit Stones. Alchemy? The auction was still ten days away. In these ten days, he could refine some Pure Elixirs, but probably not many. But if not for alchemy, he didn't have any other methods either. Lin Jing sat on the bench beside the pavilion, gazing at the nearby fish pond, lost in thought. In the pond, two plump goldfish were fiercely competing for a piece of food. Both fish were about the same size and equally aggressive. Therefore, after a long struggle, the piece of food never ended up in any fish's mouth, and the rest of the goldfish, being smaller in size, didn't dare approach due to the competition between the two larger, plumper fish and had to hide far away. However, just as the two large goldfish were fiercely fighting for the food, an unexpected change occurred. The intense struggle of the two large fish sent the food flying out, and a small fish took this opportunity to swiftly grab the food and swim away. The two large fish, tangled in their fight, noticed the food being carried away by the small fish and immediately stopped their brawl to chase after it quickly. Yet, this small fish was quite clever, diving straight into the crevice of a rockery, and although the two large fish chased it to the crevice, they found they could not squeeze through and were left to wander outside the crevice. Lin Jing watched this scene and broke into a smile. "These two foolish fish…" Then suddenly, Lin Jing had a flash of inspiration. A wonderful idea formed spontaneously, and he instantly came up with a plan. He decided to not only engage in alchemy but also to refine the Pure Accumulation Elixir, which was recently in very high demand. Although Lin Jing wasn't sure exactly what was happening, he knew from the recent period that someone had been aggressively buying up Pure Accumulation Elixirs, followed by a mass purchase of Cleansing Herb. Clearly, something big was going to happen. And from the probing of the young man in red at Fang Market last time, Lin Jing deduced that this probably had something to do with them. Since Lin Jing had no money, he could make them pay while he just needed to refine the Pure Accumulation Elixir and put it up for auction. If they really planned to execute some secretive scheme, no matter the cost in Spirit Stones, they would definitely make a move. After all, with The Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon, Lin Jing could completely conceal his true identity and didn't have to worry about being exposed. Moreover, Lin Jing was aware that Yuebaolou placed a high value on the privacy of the sellers, and would not reveal it without the seller's consent. Otherwise, it would damage the reputation of Yuebaolou. In doing so, Lin Jing could say the risk was minimal. ...... Afterward, Lin Jing began his research. He currently had 471 Harvest Points. Unfortunately, if he had 500 Harvest Points, he could upgrade the Alchemy Room again. Then, the success rate of refining Second Rank Flawless Elixirs would increase significantly, which would be even better. Thinking this, Lin Jing returned to his room and then closed the door tightly. "Enter the System Space." As the words fell, Lin Jing directly entered the System Space. Upon arriving in the System Space, Lin Jing went straight to the Alchemy Room. First, he opened the Storage Bag and took out some First Rank materials. Lin Jing planned to start by testing his skills with these First Rank Elixir Medicines, and after getting the hang of it, switch to refining the Clear Accumulation Elixirs. Then, as usual, Lin Jing prepared everything. He processed the materials, then started the fire, waited for the right temperature, and then added the materials to the Pill Furnace in order. The final step was to seal the furnace. ... ... Time hurried by, and soon, the fragrance of the pills permeated the air, and the system notification chimed in at that moment. "Ding" "System Notification: Congratulations Host for successfully refining the Flawless Elixir Medicine and receiving a reward: 5 Harvest Points." This time luck was on his side—the first furnace had successfully yielded Flawless Elixir Medicine. Lin Jing then did not rest but continued refining. The next furnace did not yield Flawless Elixir Medicine. After that, he refined another furnace of First Rank Elixir Medicine, and then Lin Jing felt the timing was right. After three consecutive furnace loads of refining, Lin Jing didn't feel tired at all, thanks mainly to the Ning Pill Technique. However, Lin Jing still took a short break, rested until he felt completely reenergized, and then continued refining.
