Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Soon, the two had made their arrangement. A month later, they were still in the same place. Lin Jing and Li Tangyu took out the Elixir Medicine each had refined, and whoever could produce a Flawless one would be declared the winner. If neither of them could produce Flawless Elixir Medicine, then the quality of the Elixir Medicine would determine the winner. Of course, winning or losing did not have much impact on Lin Jing, nor would he suffer any loss. The man in black was extremely excited and profusely thanked both of them. Now that they had an additional person helping with the refining, and it was the Young Master from an Alchemy Dao family, the chance of producing Flawless Elixir Medicine was much greater. Before long, after saying their goodbyes, they each went their separate ways. Lin Jing did not continue his stall and left the black market. ...… In the following days, Lin Jing refined two batches of Elixir Medicine daily, and after each Alchemy session, besides recovering his energy, he often summarized the mistakes he made while refining. His main focus now was to keep practicing and summarizing until he could proficiently refine second-grade Elixir Medicine, and then he would try to refine the Pure Body Restoration Pill. And, getting familiar with the refining process was quick. And so... That day, one of the batches of Elixir Medicine that Lin Jing refined already contained a Supreme Grade Elixir. Lin Jing sighed regretfully, thinking that if there had been two Supreme Elixirs, perhaps the Pure Body Restoration Pill might have already been created. Indeed, the Elixir Medicine he used for practice was also a Rejuvenation Elixir. Having finished refining the Elixir Medicine, he came out of System Space. Lin Jing was about to sit and meditate to recover when he heard commotion outside, which made it utterly impossible for him to concentrate. Lin Jing, feeling helpless, went out to see what was happening. However, as soon as he stepped out, he saw the Talisman Master from across the street. The Talisman Master approached Lin Jing and greeted him immediately. "Lin Daoyou," Lin Jing nodded, then asked, "Do you know what's causing such a disturbance?" "Lin Daoyou, you don't know?" the Talisman Master asked in confusion. Lin Jing responded, "I've been cultivating all this time and was just disrupted by this noise, so I came out to check. I hope you could inform me." "That's understandable..." "News just arrived that the beast tide is upon us again." "After the last beast tide, weren't some cultivators who couldn't pay the Spirit Stone enlisted into the Guard Squad, becoming members of the temporary Guard Team?" "These noises are the Fang Market Guard Squad gathering forces to prepare to resist the beast tide." "The beast tide has come again?" Lin Jing frowned. The Fang Market was becoming increasingly unsafe, but it seemed that other places were even more dangerous apart from Fang Market. Of course, one place was probably also very safe, the Qingyuan Sword Sect, but unfortunately, Lin Jing had been expelled from the Sect and could not return. "Lin Daoyou, I must leave now to prepare early, and you should prepare early too," the Talisman Master said. "After this beast tide, when you go to the Yichun Building next time, don't forget to bring me along, Lin Daoyou." "Yichun Building?" "Daoyou, what do you mean?" Lin Jing was completely baffled. Yichun Building, just from the name, it was obvious what kind of place it was. Lin Jing had no recollection of ever visiting such a place. "Lin Daoyou, hoarding all to oneself isn't a good habit…" the Talisman Master teased. "Daoyou, don't speak nonsense, I have never been to this Yichun Building," Lin Jing stated plainly. "Could it be that you've forgotten?" The Talisman Master asked, puzzled. "Just the other night, at Shengyuan Casino..." "I saw you coming out of the back door of that casino with my own eyes, and besides that, what other place is there but Yichun Building?" Lin Jing felt embarrassed and suddenly understood. It turns out it was that casino he had passed by last time he went to the black market. Lin Jing quickly began to explain, "Daoyou, you are mistaken, I was there for a reason." The Talisman Master's mouth twitched: "We are all fellow daoists." "Fellow daoist, that wasn't very straightforward of you. Who goes there without having something they need to do?" Having said that, he looked at Lin Jing with a strange expression: "You were in such a hurry back then, I saw it all clearly. You entered the gambling house and didn't even stay, just walked straight out through the back door." "It's only been a few days, and you're already denying it?" At this point, he spoke righteously: "As fellow daoists, we must never skulk and cower..." "If you went, you went. You need to boldly admit it." "Fine, if you say so." Lin Jing, feeling helpless, could only respond that way. He couldn't afford to reveal the matter about the black market entrance to this person and didn't wish to argue any further. The Talisman Master chuckled: "Hehe... that's more like it..." "Lin Daoyou, next time you have 'business' at the brothel, remember to call me along." Seeing his suggestive gestures, Lin Jing really wanted to rush up and punch him. But he thought better of it. "Alright, I can't talk to you any longer, I need to go back and prepare. Lin Daoyou takes his leave." Having said that, the Talisman Master returned to his own yard. Afterwards, Lin Jing sighed and thought to himself: "It seems I should minimize contact with this person in the future." Having decided that, Lin Jing planned to go home early to prepare. However, just as Lin Jing turned around, he caught a glimpse of two figures, one large and one small. Lin Jing quickly turned his head and saw that the two figures were Ning Yue and her daughter Luo Luo, but he didn't know when they had arrived. Lin Jing's heart skipped a beat. "They didn't overhear anything, did they? Hopefully, they just arrived and didn't hear a thing?" Lin Jing silently prayed. Then, he walked up to greet the two. "Ning Daoyou." "Luo Luo." "Uncle Lin!" Luo Luo happily greeted Lin Jing. However, Luo Luo's next sentence made Lin Jing die of embarrassment on the spot. "Uncle Lin, what is the brothel, and is it fun inside?" After Luo Luo spoke, Lin Jing stood there in stunned silence, at a loss for words. "Adults' business is not for children to ask about." Ning Yue scolded Luo Luo. "Oh..." Luo Luo, whose face had been beaming with a smile, suddenly drooped. Looking down, she trudged unhappily, stomping on the fallen leaves with force. She felt unjustly scolded, having been chastised by her mother for just asking a question. Fortunately, this indirectly rescued Lin Jing from his predicament. Yet, Lin Jing felt even more embarrassed because obviously, they had heard everything. "Ning Daoyou..." Lin Jing wanted to explain, but Ning Yue immediately interrupted him. "Lin Daoyou, it's chaotic outside now; don't run about anymore. We are going back too." Then, perhaps to avoid Lin Jing or for some other reason, Ning Yue, having finished speaking, dragged Luo Luo back home. Leaving Lin Jing alone, disheveled in the wind. "Forget it, I can only wait for our next meeting to explain things clearly." Lin Jing sighed to himself and also returned to his home.
