Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

When the new steward had just arrived. Lin Jing had been busy with alchemy during those days and was unaware of the development; it was Huang Qingling who informed him about it. At the same time, Huang Qingling also brought another piece of news that caught Lin Jing's attention. It was that after the new steward's arrival, he had visited the Liu Clan and met with Wu Cai Immortal. This matter couldn't help but make Lin Jing think a bit more. It seemed that Wu Cai Immortal and this new steward from Yuebaolou knew each other. However, even if they knew each other, it wasn't surprising. After all, being both Golden Core Immortals, they would have their own networks; it was normal for them to know each other. In the end, he remembered what Elder Bai had said and decided to pay a little more attention. After Huang Qingling left, Lin Jing continued with his alchemy and stopped thinking about the new steward. ...... Two days later... Lin Jing had just finished a batch of Elixir Furnace Medicine and, after resting, was organizing alchemy ingredients, planning to start another batch... At that moment, the system's alert suddenly sounded. "Warning!" "Someone has intruded into the alert range, please host respond promptly." Lin Jing put down the alchemy ingredients in his hands and frowned... It was because Huang Qingling had just visited him in the morning, telling him that she was going to the Li Family to find Li Qingqing and also mentioned that she might not return today. She had originally wanted to take Lin Jing with her, but he had declined her invitation on the pretext of alchemy. Therefore, it shouldn't be Huang Qingling who was coming at this time. Besides Huang Qingling, who else could it be at this time? After pondering for a moment, Lin Jing called out the System. "System." "Enter Observation Mode." Subsequently, Lin Jing's perspective changed, appearing above the courtyard, then he moved his viewpoint to the front door and saw a person standing there. This person was none other than Yu Yan, who often accompanied the Pill Master surnamed Wang. Yu Yan knocked on the door again, then spoke up: "Lin Daoyou, are you there?" "It seems he must have something to discuss with me," Lin Jing thought to himself. "System, exit Observation Mode, leave System Space." After that, Lin Jing left the System Space and appeared inside the room. After straightening his clothes, Lin Jing walked towards the door. At the door, Lin Jing reached out to open the courtyard gate and saw Yu Yan. "Ah, Fellow Yu..." "I was just cultivating just now, sorry for making you wait..." "It's fine..." Yu Yan waved his hand. "Actually, it's me who has suddenly disturbed you, Lin Daoyou..." "Fellow Yu, may I ask what brings you here all of a sudden?" Lin Jing asked. "It's like this, Lin Daoyou..." Yu Yan began: "The new steward Zheng wants to gather all the Pill Masters tomorrow, saying there are important matters to discuss, so he specifically asked me to notify Lin Daoyou..." After hearing this, Lin Jing thought to himself: "Gather all the Pill Masters..." "The new steward has just arrived and wants to gather all the Pill Masters, but I wonder what his intentions are..." However, Lin Jing didn't show any reaction on the surface and said to Yu Yan with a fist and palm salute: "I see, thank you for making the effort to notify me, Fellow Yu..." "Don't mention it, Lin Daoyou, there's no need for formalities..." Yu Yan responded with the same gesture. After speaking... Yu Yan looked around to the left and right and then moved a bit closer, whispering to Lin Jing: "Lin Daoyou." "Aside from discussing some matters, I inadvertently heard that there might be an assessment." "It is said to be a check on the Alchemy Dao levels of all the Pill Masters, and those who do not meet the standards will have their Offering Priest status revoked immediately." "Moreover, all the benefits granted by Yuebaolou will also be retracted." "You should take extra caution..." Yu Yan's reminder was quite clear. Because the level of alchemy Lin Jing had shown so far fell a bit short of the standards of a Yuebaolou Offering Priest. Then, if Lin Jing fails to pass this assessment, it's very likely that his status as an Offering Pill Master will be revoked. "Alright, I've said what I came to say." "I still need to notify the other Fellows, so I shall take my leave now…" Having said that, Yu Yan turned and prepared to depart. "Many thanks to Fellow Yu for informing me of this matter," Lin Jing said, clasping his fist in gratitude. "No need…" "Lin Daoyou would do well to prepare in advance…" Yu Yan turned back and said to Lin Jing. After speaking, Yu Yan left. After Yu Yan's departure, Lin Jing also closed the door and returned to his own small courtyard. Back in his room, Lin Jing sat there pondering this matter. The assessment mentioned by Yu Yan, Lin Jing wondered whether it was a spur-of-the-moment idea from that Steward Zheng or if there was some other reason behind it… Lin Jing had no way of knowing. But… He was not the least bit worried; with his real level of skill, passing the assessment would be a breeze. If even someone of his third-grade alchemy level couldn't pass this assessment, then nobody else stood a chance. Moreover… Lin Jing needn't worry about his strength being exposed, for in alchemy, besides technique, luck also plays a significant part. Even alchemists whose skills aren't entirely mature might have periods of exceptionally good fortune, producing Elixir Medicines that surpass even those of more experienced Pill Masters. It was even possible to directly concoct Flawless Elixirs. So there was absolutely no need for concern. Once he had come to terms with this, Lin Jing continued to go back into the System Space and began his alchemy. ...... The next day… Lin Jing arrived early at Yuebaolou. Once there, he was informed that he should head directly to the Alchemy Room for a gathering. "Alchemy Room…" Lin Jing's heart stirred as he thought to himself: "As expected, is this the assessment?" Following that, Lin Jing headed towards the Alchemy Room. On the way, he encountered several other Pill Masters who were serving as offerings. And just like Lin Jing, they too were heading to the Alchemy Room to assemble. Following them, Lin Jing arrived at the Alchemy Room. Upon pushing the door open, Lin Jing found that many Pill Masters were already there. At the same time… Lin Jing also saw Yu Yan and a Pill Master with the surname Wang. After Lin Jing's arrival. Many people greeted Lin Jing, and he responded briefly. Afterward, he stayed in an inconspicuous corner, waiting for everyone to arrive. They waited like this for another half an hour before all the offering Pill Masters were assembled. Only then… Did two people push the door and walk in. One of them was known to Lin Jing; it was Steward Cheng who was on good terms with Elder Yu. And the other, a dark-skinned elderly man walking in front of Steward Cheng, was someone Lin Jing had never seen before. Presumably, he must be the new Attendant Zheng. The two men passed through the crowd and came to the front of everyone. At this moment, the dark-skinned older man spoke. "Apologies for keeping everyone waiting…" "I suspect some of you might not recognize me, so allow me to introduce myself." "I am the new Attendant of Yuebaolou, with the surname Zheng. Just address me as Attendant Zheng." "We've seen Attendant Zheng…" Instantly, some people clasped their hands and addressed Attendant Zheng. "No need for such politeness…" Attendant Zheng extended his hand to stop them. "Before Elder Bai returns, I will be managing the Yuebaolou of Nanshan Market temporarily." "And today, calling everyone here was to simply convey a few words and also to have you all bear witness."
