Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Lin Jing stepped out of the house, opened the courtyard door, and as expected, Huang Qingling was standing at the doorway. "Let's go, let's head to Yuebaolou..." Huang Qingling spoke up as soon as she saw Lin Jing. It was now nighttime, the moon still hanging on the branches—Huang Qingling rarely went out at this time, what could it be today? Lin Jing couldn't help but feel puzzled, so he asked: "Fellow Daoist Qing Ling, why are we heading to Yuebaolou now?" "Old Man Bai has returned, and Elder Yu has also left seclusion. They need to go somewhere today and specifically asked me to call you to join." "So it's Elder Bai and Elder Yu..." "Alright..." Lin Jing replied. After speaking, Lin Jing closed the courtyard door and joined Huang Qingling. Together, they headed in the direction of Yuebaolou. "What place are we going to, did Old Man Bai tell you?" Lin Jing asked Huang Qingling while they were on the road. "The black market…" Huang Qingling answered. Then, Huang Qingling suddenly turned her head, looking at Lin Jing. "I remember you've been to the black market before, haven't you?" "How is the black market, is it fun? I've never been there myself." "I was thinking of going before, but Old Man Bai said there's nothing interesting there, so he didn't let me go." "Is that really so?" Huang Qingling continued to ask. Lin Jing nodded and said: "Um..." "The black market is just like our Fang Market, a place for buying and selling, only that it is covered by a formation and you can't use Divine Sense, nothing much fun about it." "Oh, I see..." Hearing this, Huang Qingling immediately lost interest. Lin Jing suddenly turned his head, asking Huang Qingling: "By the way..." "What was Old Man Bai doing out for so long this time?" Huang Qingling spoke up, saying directly: "You mean Old Man Bai..." "He went out this time to prepare a Tribulation magical treasure for Elder Yu." "So is Elder Yu planning to start his breakthrough these days now that he is out of seclusion?" Lin Jing looked at Huang Qingling, waiting for her answer. "Old Man Bai just found a protective magical treasure, Elder Yu still needs some time for refinement, it won't be so soon." Huang Qingling explained. "Oh... I see." Lin Jing nodded, showing his understanding. ...... The two arrived at Yuebaolou, where Elder Bai and Elder Yu were already waiting. "Elder Bai..." "Elder Yu..." Lin Jing greeted them with a bow. "Um..." "Little Lin, I heard you've made rapid progress in your Alchemy Techniques recently, probably not long before you can be promoted to a Second-Grade Alchemist," Elder Yu said with a smile. It must be that Elder Yu had seen the elixirs Lin Jing had handed in recently, which is why he would say this. "Um..." "I have had some insights recently, but I think there is still some gap before I can be promoted to a Second-Grade Alchemist." Lin Jing replied. He was now creating First Rank elixirs, and their quality was quite good, rarely producing Low-grade Pills anymore. Moreover, this was without the bonus of the system Alchemy Room. It's actually quite understandable, being an almost Third Grade Second-Grade Alchemist, creating First Rank elixirs was naturally an easy task. "Today, we called you here actually to have you find someone in the black market..." Old Man Bai spoke at this moment. "Who are we looking for?" Lin Jing asked. "The Elixir Valley Heir..." "......" After hearing Elder Bai's words, Lin Jing didn't know how to respond for a moment. He certainly couldn't tell them that the Elixir Valley Heir they were looking for was right in front of them. "Old Man Bai, are you looking for the Elixir Valley Heir to buy Flawless Elixirs to help Elder Yu undergo his tribulation?" "That's right," Elder Bai nodded. "Don't Yuebaolou's stock of elixirs suffice?" Huang Qingling immediately voiced the question that was in Lin Jing's mind. Logically speaking, other places might lack Flawless Elixirs, but Yuebaolou shouldn't. "Elder Yu's aptitude is not very good. Compared to others, his chances of surviving the Heavenly Tribulation are even lower." "That's why we need to be fully prepared." Elder Bai spoke from the side. "This time, I've already collected one Flawless Restorative Elixir and one Flawless Healing Elixir, but this is still far from enough." "So..." "We still need to find a way to collect a few more Flawless Elixirs. Only then will Elder Yu have a better chance of overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation." "Can't Supreme Grade Elixirs work?" Huang Qingling asked, puzzled. "Supreme Grade Elixirs can certainly work, but in terms of recovery speed and capacity, they are far from comparable to Flawless Elixirs." After saying this, Elder Bai looked at Huang Qingling and continued: "You must understand; this is the Heavenly Tribulation we're talking about—it's not easy to overcome." "Thus, the better prepared we are, the greater the chances of getting through the tribulation." "If we absolutely can't find any, we'll have to reluctantly substitute them with Supreme Grade Elixirs." Upon hearing Elder Bai's words, Lin Jing fell into deep thought. He had also heard that Heavenly Tribulations were extremely terrifying; one slight misstep could lead to obliteration, and even those who successfully transcended were few, hardly one or two out of ten. Most people could not withstand the Tribulation and ended up with shattered souls. Lin Jing frowned, inevitably feeling a bit worried. It seemed that he would have to find a way to refine a few Flawless Elixirs for Elder Yu. ...... "When the time comes..." "I'll go handle some matters with Elder Yu while you and Lin Jing seek out the Elixir Valley Heir inside, to see if he has any Flawless Restorative Elixirs and Flawless Healing Elixirs." "If the Elixir Valley Heir isn't there, you can also see if anyone else is selling these two kinds of elixirs." Elder Bai instructed Huang Qingling. "Yes, we understand," Huang Qingling responded. Elder Bai nodded slightly and then inquired of Lin Jing: "Elder Yu mentioned that you've been to the black market before, right?" "Yes, Elder Bai," Lin Jing replied. "We have a deal with someone soon, and after entering, we'll have to split up." "Qing Ling has never been to the black market before. Keep an eye on her once we're there, don't let her get into trouble," Elder Bai instructed Lin Jing. "Rest assured, Elder Bai, I will take good care of Fellow Daoist Qing Ling," Lin Jing said with a bow. Elder Bai nodded upon hearing this. "Alright, let's go." ...... When they reached a black market teleportation point, Elder Bai was the first to teleport in. Then it was Huang Qingling, followed by Lin Jing, with Elder Yu bringing up the rear. The group passed through the dense forest and entered the black market. Elder Bai gave another set of instructions to Huang Qingling and Lin Jing before he left with Elder Yu. After the two had left, Lin Jing began showing Huang Qingling around the black market. Truth be told, this was his first time entering the black market without any disguise. Once inside the black market, Huang Qingling was very curious about the items displayed on other people's stalls and kept looking around. "There are a variety of stalls here, selling all kinds of things. It's quite interesting, not as dull as you guys made it out to be." "You and Old Man Bai are the same, always fooling people."
