Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 59: Wei Zhengqing is Seriously Injured



"It's like this, we visited Linxian City..." Yan Xiong was just getting to this point when he was suddenly interrupted by Wei Zhengqing. "Big Bear!" Wei Zhengqing urgently called for a halt, his voice incredibly weak, yet the urgency was unmistakable, suggesting he didn't want certain things to be known. After the call to stop, Yan Xiong promptly fell silent. "Cough... cough cough..." The forceful reaction made Wei Zhengqing cough violently again. Lin Jing didn't ask any further and turned to look at Wei Zhengqing, who was lying on the bed. At that moment, his face was pale, and he appeared extremely weak, with Ning Yue supporting him. Meanwhile, Ning Yue also seemed off. "Is it because of me?" Ning Yue lowered her head, her expression unreadable, but her voice shook. "Don't overthink, it's because of me..." Wei Zhengqing said weakly. Hearing the three words "Linxian City," it seemed somewhat familiar. Moments later, Lin Jing suddenly remembered that it was Wei Zhengqing and Ning Yue who had come from Linxian City, along with Luo Luo's father. Unfortunately, Luo Luo's father perished in a foreign land by accident, leaving Ning Yue and Luo Luo, mother and daughter, alone. With a worried expression, Yan Xiong replied: "Miss Ning, you better not ask, it's our negligence that allowed them to..." Yan Xiong had only spoken half of his sentence when he was glared at by Wei Zhengqing and stopped by his look. He realized his slip of the tongue and quickly shut his mouth, standing to one side in silence. It seemed that Yan Xiong was not good at lying. Although Wei Zhengqing interrupted Yan Xiong's words, it was still possible to discern that the injury on Wei Zhengqing was man-made. Ning Yue pursed her lips, her eyebrows deeply furrowed, as she said: "Fine, I won't ask." After speaking, Ning Yue reached out and placed her hand on Wei Zhengqing's wrist, extending a thread of spiritual power as she probed into his body. Ning Yue was extremely careful, fearing that too much force would aggravate the injury. As she probed more deeply, Ning Yue's face grew graver, her brows nearly knotting together. After a long while, Ning Yue finally spoke again. "You've entered the Foundation Establishment Stage." "Yes," Wei Zhengqing replied. Ning Yue asked: "Foundation Establishment Stage should carry strong recovery abilities, so how could you have sustained such grave injuries?" "Moreover, there seems to be a force inside your body preventing the healing of your wounds." "What exactly is going on?" Yan Xiong glanced at Wei Zhengqing, then whispered: "Wei was hit by a malicious Magical Treasure, with a mass of poisonous power injected into his body, which is why he's been like this." "Furthermore, this mass of poisonous spiritual power continues to erode brother Wei's vitality, getting stronger over time." "Given old Wei's current condition, he could probably hold on for about five more days; if this poisonous spirit power can't be eliminated within these five days, I'm afraid it will be beyond help." After finishing, Yan Xiong lowered his head, his face growing more solemn. "Now, only by using a Pure Body Restoration Pill can we remove that mass of spiritual power and heal brother Wei's injuries." "Pure Body Restoration Pill!" Ning Yue bit her lip hard, so forcefully that even when she drew blood, she seemed not to notice. As an Alchemist herself, she was very clear about how difficult it is to refine a Pure Body Restoration Pill. Following that, the room fell silent. After thinking for a while with her head bowed, Ning Yue suddenly looked up with a determined gaze and said: "Yan Xiong, take good care of Zhengqing these next few days. If I can't find anything, I'll try to refine it myself." "I'll also try to find something," Lin Jing added. Wei Zhengqing was a good person who had also helped him before, and last time he even gave him a Teleportation Talisman. Lin Jing could not stand by and watch him die. However, five days was a truly pressing deadline. Lin Jing frowned, Wei Zhengqing's injury was so severe that he needed to speed up the refining process. He was well aware of the situation in the Fang Market; he feared that not even half a Pure Body Restoration Pill could be found, otherwise, the man in black wouldn't have turned to the black market. Instead of searching for one, it would be better for Lin Jing to refine it himself given his high success rate in crafting Pure Elixir Medicine. Although there had been continuous problems in the refinement of the Pure Body Restoration Pill recently, he couldn't afford to give up no matter what. After all, this was a matter of life and death. He could not care less about any wagers at this point, let whoever wants to go take the risks. Even if he succeeded in refining the Pure Body Restoration Pill, Lin Jing certainly intended to give it to Wei Zhengqing to use. Later, Ning Yue rushed off to the Inner Fang Market in search of the Pure Body Restoration Pill, hurriedly leaving, and even left Luo Luo behind. And Lin Jing, after staying for a while, made excuses about searching for elixir medicine and left as well. Back at home, Lin Jing entered the System Space and began to continue refining the Pure Body Restoration Pill. On the first day, he forged two batches, both succeeded, but no Pure Elixir Medicine emerged... On the second day, he refined three batches, two succeeded, one failed, still no Pure Elixir Medicine emerged... On the third day, he refined three batches, all succeeded, but still no Pure Elixir Medicine emerged... On the fourth day. Lin Jing refined another batch early in the morning, once again succeeding, yet still no Pure Elixir Medicine emerged. Perhaps because of the recent time constraints, Lin Jing was even more careful while crafting elixir medicine, not daring to make the slightest mistake, As a result, his success rate in crafting Pure Elixir Medicine was absurdly high. But unfortunately, there was still no Pure Elixir emerging. Lin Jing no longer had time to complain; as soon as he finished refining the elixir medicine, he quickly started to meditate to recover. Due to the continuous alchemy, only an hour and a half was left of the remaining time available in the System Space. That amount of time was only enough to refine one more batch. "If I still can't produce one by tomorrow, which will be the fifth day, I fear for Brother Wei's chances..." The pressure of time caused Lin Jing a moment of distraction... Soon after realizing it, Lin Jing quickly calmed his thoughts and continued to meditate for recovery. Four hours passed, and Lin Jing had recovered. Without any hesitation, he quickly entered the System Space. As usual, after all the preparations were complete, Lin Jing cautiously controlled the flames with the Controlling Fire Technique, not daring to be the slightest bit sloppy. ... ... ... One hour passed swiftly as before, the pill fragrance filled the air, a sensation to which Lin Jing was accustomed. The presence of pill fragrance only indicated the success of the alchemy and did not guarantee the emergence of Pure Elixir Medicine. However, after waiting for a moment, there was still no system prompt. By now, the fragrance of the elixir medicine had permeated the entire Alchemy Room, drilling straight into Lin Jing's nostrils. This intoxicating aroma seemed purer than usual; merely by smelling it, Lin Jing felt inebriated. The fragrance, and the time it took, could it be... Last time it took this long, a Flawless one emerged; he remembered it vividly. Unable to suppress his excitement, Lin Jing's eyes sparkled as he watched the Pill Furnace... ... ... Seconds ticked by... Lin Jing also remained tense, not daring to relax... ... Suddenly. The system notification sounded. "Ding" "System notification: Congratulations to the host for crafting a Flawless Elixir Medicine and receiving a reward of 20 Harvest Points." "Elixir Medicine refining succeeded, Alchemy Proficiency +80."
