Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Elder Yu and Lin Jing merely exchanged some simple pleasantries and didn't engage in much conversation. Before long, the manager came out, holding a Storage Bag and a wooden box. "These are the Spirit Stones from the auction of your Flawless Clear Accumulation Pill, deducting the service fee, everything else is in here." "And this." The manager opened the wooden box, which contained the Biling Flower Rhizome that Lin Jing had bid for. "The cost has already been deducted from the Clear Accumulation Pill you sold, plus the previous service fee, leaving you with 4425 Medium Grade Spirit Stones remaining." Having said that, the manager handed over the Storage Bag and the Biling Flower Rhizome to Lin Jing. This Storage Bag was different from the one Lin Jing had; it was specially used for large transactions at Yuebaolou, just for the convenience of trading. The space inside was very small, it couldn't accommodate anything slightly larger, and it wasn't particularly valuable either. "Thank you." Lin Jing took the Storage Bag, checked it, and found exactly 4425 Medium Grade Spirit Stones inside. Lin Jing then stored the Storage Bag and the Biling Flower Rhizome away. After putting away his items, Lin Jing turned to Elder Yu and asked, "Could you tell me, friend..." "If I don't go through the main gate, is there another way to leave the venue?" "Are you not planning on attending the remainder of the auction? There are many good items coming up," Elder Yu inquired. Lin Jing shook his head, without offering much explanation: "No, I plan to leave now." Elder Yu didn't ask further, as everyone has their own privacy. Then, he pointed towards the direction of the corridor: "After you walk out from here, just follow the corridor straight ahead, turn right at the end, and you'll find a side door that leads directly out of the venue." "Thank you, friend. I'll take my leave," Lin Jing said, bowing to Elder Yu. "Take care." Elder Yu bowed as well. Afterward, Lin Jing turned and left the place. Walking along the corridor, just as Elder Yu had said, there was a side door leading out of the venue, and not far from it, a quiet alley. Without a second word, Lin Jing turned into the alley... Before long, a burly man with a full beard came walking out of the alley. This burly man was Lin Jing, who had changed his appearance. After leaving the alley, Lin Jing didn't return to his own courtyard but walked towards Yuebaolou. Because next... He had to present the remaining two Flawless Clear Accumulation Pills and continue to participate in tomorrow's auction. This had been Lin Jing's plan all along. By participating in the auction and selling an Elixir Medicine, he would understand how much a Flawless Clear Accumulation Pill could fetch in such circumstances. Furthermore, auctioning them separately would likely bring a higher price than selling them together. After all, scarcity enhances value... If he were to offer three at the same time, he probably wouldn't be able to achieve as high a price. This was Lin Jing's initial thought. Arriving at Yuebaolou, the registration area for auction items was still managed by Zhao. When Lin Jing presented the two Flawless Clear Accumulation Pills, Zhao was stunned. He probably never expected someone to be able to offer more Flawless Clear Accumulation Pills. It took him a while to regain his composure. "Please wait a moment, friend." After speaking, Zhao called over a maid to invite a Pill Master from Yuebaolou. It didn't take long before a Pill Master arrived; aside from Elder Yu, he was one of the most formidable Pill Masters in Yuebaolou. However, as this person was obsessed with Alchemy and kept a low profile, hardly interacting with others, he remained inconspicuous. Lin Jing had only met him once under Elder Yu's introduction. Now, due to the needs of the auction, they had even requested this person to assist. Upon arrival, the Pill Master immediately took the Elixir Medicine from Zhao and examined it. Then, he opened the Pure Jade Box, picked up the Elixir Medicine, and observed it for a while longer. Afterward, he placed the Elixir Medicine back into the Pure Jade Box and closed it. "It's genuine." With those two words, the person turned and left without speaking another word to either Lin Jing or Zhao from beginning to end. Manager Zhao felt somewhat embarrassed and said, "Fellow Daoist, please don't take offense..." "He has always been like this." "It's alright," Lin Jing replied. "Since the Pill Master has already appraised it, we can proceed with arranging the auction," Manager Zhao spoke. "May I ask, fellow Daoist, are you planning to participate in tomorrow's auction or the one the day after?" Manager Zhao inquired. "Naturally, tomorrow's auction," Lin Jing responded. "Also, give me a copy of the auction items list for tomorrow and the day after." "Understood." After Manager Zhao finished speaking, he called for the maid again to fetch the list. By now, Manager Zhao had also understood that this person must have come across an auction item that he needed urgently, which was why he was so eager to sell the Pure Accumulation Pills in his possession. And his request for the item lists further confirmed Manager Zhao's speculation. Soon, the maid delivered the lists. Lin Jing immediately opened them and started looking through. After a while, Lin Jing discovered that the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique he was after appeared in the auction set for the day after tomorrow. This instantly relieved Lin Jing. It was all right as long as it wasn't tomorrow, even though he now had over 4000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones on him. But... He had rarely paid attention to Cultivation Techniques and Magic Artifacts, nor did he understand their actual prices, so Lin Jing was still apprehensive. Next, Lin Jing took his receipt and Token, then left Yuebaolou. ...... After Lin Jing had left, Manager Zhao summoned someone. "Go to the auction hall and tell Elder Bai about this sale of the Pure Accumulation Pills, and see what he says." "Yes," the person replied, then turned and immediately left. After the person had gone, Manager Zhao looked at the two Pure Accumulation Pills in his hand and mused to himself, "One yesterday, and now two more today, this matter is getting more and more interesting..." "Who knows which family has gotten involved now..." ...... An hour later, in the VIP box on the second floor of the auction hall belonging to Yuebaolou, "Someone else is auctioning Pure Accumulation Pills, and this time there are two of them." At this moment, Elder Bai, who had just received the news, was deep in thought, frowning. "Old Man Bai, wasn't it said that the Pure Accumulation Pills had been completely bought out?" "Why are there so many now?" The only person who would dare to call Elder Bai "Old Man Bai" was probably no other than Huang Qingling. At this moment, the whole box had already been enveloped by Elder Bai's Spiritual Power, creating a soundproof barrier, which was why Huang Qingling dared to speak so freely. Elder Bai pondered for a long time but did not answer. After a while, Elder Bai finally spoke, "You go back first, I am aware of the matter." "Alright," the person then left. "Old Man Bai, is this matter difficult?" Huang Qingling asked with curiosity. "It's not difficult..." Elder Bai stood up and said to Huang Qingling, "Come on, let's return to Yuebaolou." "Ah, the auction isn't over yet, are we not watching anymore?" Qingling asked, puzzled. "If you want to watch, then stay here and watch. But let's make it clear first, no causing trouble. I know you don't like that junior from the Liu Clan." "Besides, try not to go too far. It's better to have less contact with him." "And..." "Elder Yu mentioned to me the matter between Lin Jing and the junior of the Liu Clan." "Tell him not to worry about it. Whatever happens will happen. I will handle it well." "Alright..." "Then I won't watch either. I will go back right now and tell Lin Jing about this," Huang Qingling said. "Old Man Bai, let's go." Elder Bai said no more, withdrew the soundproof barrier, and left the box. Qingling followed behind him, and together they left the VIP area.
