“Yes.” Lin Jing responded.
“Fellow daoist, I am Yu Yan, who has just joined Yuebaolou as an Offering Priest Alchemist. I don’t yet know your name, and perhaps in the future, we can exchange knowledge on alchemy.”
As Yu Yan was speaking, the Wang-named Pill Master beside him nudged him.
Yu Yan looked up in confusion, not understanding why.
“Lin Jing. ”
Lin Jing stated plainly.
“I have matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now, farewell!”
Having said that, Lin Jing sidestepped and walked past the two men.
Not until Lin Jing had walked some distance did the Wang-named Pill Master speak to Yu Yan:
“There’s no need to bother with him.”
“Fellow daoist, why do you say that?” Yu Yan asked, puzzled.
“Aren’t we all Offering Priest Alchemists of Yuebaolou?”
“We are bound to run into each other often in the future, so what’s the harm in exchanging thoughts?”
The Wang-named Pill Master’s face was full of disdain:
“He’s just a First Rank Alchemist, what’s there to talk about with him?”
Yu Yan also looked surprised, asking:
“First Rank Alchemist?”
“Aren’t all Offering Priests of Yuebaolou at least Second Grade Alchemists? How did he become an Offering Priest as a First Rank Alchemist?”
Looking back at Lin Jing, the Wang-named Pill Master then leaned in closer to Yu Yan and whispered:
“Who knows? I haven’t heard about him being from any notable family. Maybe he has some special connections.”
“But…”
“A First Rank Alchemist is always just a First Rank. As long as he isn’t a Second-Grade Alchemist, there’s nothing worth mentioning.”
“He’s not one of us, so why bother with him? We just need to focus on refining our own elixir medicines.”
With that, the two gradually walked away.
After collecting the alchemy ingredients, Lin Jing also went to chat with Elder Yu for a while before heading home.
Once home, Lin Jing rested for a bit.
Afterward, he summoned the system and entered the System Space.
“Open the system panel.”
Upon entering the System Space, Lin Jing immediately called up the system panel.
System Space (Level 2)
Remaining Time: 28 hours (Accumulative: 200 hours)
Host: Lin Jing
Spirit Field Range: 20 acres
Spiritual Energy Concentration: 2 Time Flow Speed: 2
Daily Entry Time: 4 hours
Upgrade Requirement: (497/500 Harvest Points)
Special Functions: Alert, Observe, Time Accumulation.
In two months, Lin Jing had refined numerous Pure Elixirs, and the Harvest Points had nearly accumulated enough.
Just 3 points away from another upgrade for the space.
Then, he opened his own information panel.
His panel information was displayed prominently.
Lin Jing (24/90)
Spiritual Root: Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root (Low Grade)
Cultivation: Qi Refinement Fifth Level (2%)
Cultivation Techniques: Qingyuan Dao Method (Level 2), Qingyuan Sword
Control Technique (Proficient), Controlling Fire Technique (Minor
Achievement), Ning’s Alchemy Method (Alchemy Technique, not upgradeable)
Secondary Profession: Second-Grade Alchemist (3687/10000)
“Qi Refinement Fifth Level.”
Indeed, as early as half a month ago, Lin Jing had already reached the Qi Refinement Fifth Level.
However, after reaching the Qi Refinement Fifth Level, Lin Jing did not continue to consume elixirs to increase his cultivation but decided to first stabilize his current level.
The proficiency in alchemy also increased due to the continuous alchemy over this period.
Extensive alchemy had even brought his Controlling Fire Technique to the level of Minor Achievement.
Afterward, Lin Jing closed the panel and went to the Alchemy Room.
Preparing to begin alchemy.
Lacking only 3 Harvest Points to upgrade, Lin Jing didn’t want any delay. After some consideration, he decided to refine a First Rank elixir. As long as he could refine a Pure one, he would be able to upgrade the space immediately.
Next, Lin Jing took out the already prepared ingredients, processed them properly, then kindled a flame, and began adding the ingredients into the Pill Furnace one by one…
Afterward, Lin Jing began to use the alchemy method passed on to him by Ning Yue and started pill refining.
This alchemy method was not as complicated as a Cultivation Technique, and it was very easy to learn. Moreover, Lin Jing could master it after using it only a few times during the refining process.
Therefore, after Ning Yue had given the Jade Slip to Lin Jing, it took him only a
few days to learn it, and he returned the Jade Slip to Ning Yue.
With this alchemy method, Lin Jing found refining pills much easier than before.
Suddenly, almost half an hour had passed…
A system prompt came.
“The elixir medicine has been successfully refined, alchemy proficiency +5.”
The Elixir Medicine was refined successfully, yet there was no appearance of the Pure Elixir.
However, Lin Jing was not in a hurry and directly started refining the next furnace.
Because he used the alchemy method, the energy consumption for Lin Jing was not significant. When refining a First Rank Elixir Medicine, he could even do it without taking a rest.
Lin Jing prepared everything and continued to refine.
Almost another half an hour later, the system prompt sounded again. “The elixir medicine has been successfully refined, alchemy proficiency +7.” This time was not bad; he refined a Supreme Elixir.
But the Pure Elixir that Lin Jing needed still did not appear. This time, Lin Jing took a short rest to adjust his condition.
He continued refining…
“The elixir medicine has been successfully refined, alchemy proficiency +8.” It was another success, and this time two Supreme Elixirs appeared.
Unfortunately, there was still no Pure Elixir produced.
By now, Lin Jing was already a Second-Grade Alchemist, and he was quite skilled in refining First Rank Elixir Medicines, especially with the support of the Alchemy Room, which virtually guaranteed no failures.
After three furnaces without a Pure Elixir, Lin Jing merely exhaled deeply and kept his composure, staying very calm.
After all, the Pure Elixir was not easy to refine, and others would consider themselves fortunate to refine even a single one.
It was not like Lin Jing, who could practically wholesale them.
In his Storage Bag now, there were a total of twenty or thirty various Pure Elixirs combined, and this did not even account for those he had already consumed or sold off.
Next, he continued refining…
Having prepared everything, Lin Jing began refining once again.
This time seemed particularly lengthy, as Lin Jing focused intently, controlling the flow of the medicinal liquid within the Pill Furnace.
At the same time, he carefully managed the flames.
It was at the moment when the elixir was about to be refined and the fragrance filled the entire Alchemy Room.
“Ding. ”
A system notice arrived.
“System notice: Congratulations to the host for refining Pure Elixir and receiving the reward: 5 Harvest Points.”
“The elixir medicine has been successfully refined, alchemy proficiency +15.” Heaven rewards the diligent, and he finally refined a furnace of Pure Elixir.
Lin Jing smiled contentedly and stored the elixir away.
Then he opened the system panel.
Lin Jing looked at what was needed to upgrade.
Upgrade requirement: (502/500 Harvest Points)
The Harvest Points were full, and next to the space level, an addition symbol had appeared.
Without hesitation, Lin Jing placed his hand over the plus symbol and lightly tapped it…
“Ding. ”
A system notice arrived.
“System notice: System Space is beginning an upgrade, please host temporarily exit the space within.” “The duration of this upgrade is: 2 hours.”
“Please await patiently.”
Subsequently, Lin Jing was transported out.
Lin Jing, who had been teleported out, was puzzled; he had not been removed from the space during the last upgrade, and he remembered it very clearly.
This time he was forcibly teleported out. “Could it be that a new feature has been unlocked?”
Lin Jing couldn’t help but ponder..
