Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 144: Elder Yu Emerges from Seclusion



Lin Jing, after parting with the two individuals, arrived at the place where elixir medicines were to be submitted.

Upon entering the room, Lin Jing did not see the steward who had always been present there before.

Instead, it was Steward Cheng.

Steward Cheng, seeing Lin Jing’s arrival, greeted him with a smile, saying,

“Ah, have you refined enough elixir medicines to come make your submission?”

Lin Jing replied,

“Yes, Steward Cheng…”

Having said this, Lin Jing then inquired,

“Steward Cheng, how come you’re here, where’s the previous steward?”

“He has some urgent matters to attend to, so he asked me to fill in for him temporarily.”

“I see…” Lin Jing responded.

Then, Lin Jing took out several small porcelain bottles from the Storage Bag and handed them to Steward Cheng,

“Steward Cheng, these are the elixir medicines I need to submit, thirty in total, please examine them.”

Since Lin Jing was now a Second Rank Alchemist, the elixir medicines he needed to submit were also upgraded to second rank medicines.

And because Lin Jing had only recently been promoted to Second-Grade Alchemist, Elder Bai had given him a certain level of consideration.

Therefore…

Lin Jing now only needed to submit thirty second rank elixir medicines each month.

While other Offering Priests had to submit at least fifty second rank elixir medicines, and they also had to include a certain number of superior grade elixir medicines to qualify.

There was no such quality requirement for the elixir medicines Lin Jing submitted.

Of course…

This consideration was definitely time-limited, it was estimated that after half a year, Lin Jing’s alchemy requirements would gradually increase until they matched everyone else’s.

In order not to draw attention, most of the elixir medicines Lin Jing submitted were of Low Grade, though there were also a few of Medium Grade.

According to the refinement success rate of a newly advanced Second-Grade Pill Master, this was just about right and would not arouse suspicion from others.

Steward Cheng opened the small porcelain bottles, checked them, and then nodded, saying,

“Hmm, this is fine, you’ve made great progress…”

“Compared to the elixir medicines you submitted last month, these are already quite good, keep it up.”

“It’s mostly thanks to Elder Yu’s previous guidance,” Lin Jing said humbly.

Steward Cheng waved his hand and said,

“Elder Yu’s guidance is only part of it…’

“Of course, you’ve worked hard yourself, there’s no need to be overly modest…”

After saying this, Steward Cheng changed the topic,

“Up next, you’ll want to collect the alchemy ingredients, right…”

“Yes, Steward Cheng…” Lin Jing said.

“I have already prepared everything…”

Upon saying this, Steward Cheng took out a package from within his Storage Bag.

“A total of 100 portions of second rank alchemy ingredients, all already sorted, so you don’t need to sort them yourself and can use them directly for alchemy.” “Thank you, Steward Cheng…” Lin Jing bowed with his hands clasped.

Having collected the materials and leaving the inner courtyard, Lin Jing was about to head back when, he saw Elder Bai walking toward this place.

Elder Bai had actually returned!

Lin Jing calculated that this time Elder Bai had been away was not short, a good month or more.

Lin Jing stepped forward and bowed with his hands clasped, saying,

‘Elder Bai…’

Elder Bai had already spotted Lin Jing. “Hmm…’

Elder Bai nodded and then spoke,

“Running into you is perfect, Elder Yu will exit seclusion tomorrow; you call Qing Ling over, and both of you come by tomorrow…”

“Once Elder Yu exits seclusion, we might have to leave for a while, and there are some matters I need to instruct you about.”

Lin Jing, puzzled, spoke,

“Elder Bai, you’ve just returned and are going out again?

Elder Bai nodded:

‘Yes!”

“This time leaving is different from before, and the time may be longer…” “So before departing, there are still some matters I must explain to you.”

“Understood, Elder Bai…” Lin Jing nodded. Elder Bai gave an approving nod and said:

“Alright…”

“You may go back first, I still have some matters to attend to here.”

“Elder Bai, I take my leave.” Lin Jing bowed with his hands clasped and bid farewell to Elder Bai.

“Hmm… ”

Elder Bai uttered a response and then headed inside Yuebaolou.

After returning from Yuebaolou, Lin Jing did not go back to the small courtyard where he lived but instead sought out Huang Qingling first.

After informing Huang Qingling about the matters entrusted by Elder Bai, Lin Jing returned home.

Back at his own small courtyard, Lin Jing took a brief rest, then summoned the system and entered the System Space.

Upon arriving at the System Space, Lin Jing walked to Spirit Field Number One and looked at the few spirit plants in the field.

The Youth-Retaining Fruit Tree had already grown to ten feet tall and was still more than seven years from maturity.

There was also the Biling Flower, which grew quite slowly; it looked like only a seedling now, still eight years away from maturity.

The last was the Second Rank spirit plant Rockheart Grass, an auxiliary herb for creating Cultivation True Elixir, also growing in Spirit Field Number One.

These three spirit plants were the most precious ones Lin Jing had acquired so far.

Lin Jing checked the growing condition of the three spirit plants and found everything to be normal, so he paid them no further attention. He then went directly to the Alchemy Room to start stabilizing his cultivation base.

After cultivating through the night, Lin Jing tidied up and left the house, heading straight for Huang Qingling’s courtyard.

Arriving at Huang Qingling’s gate, he knocked.

Before long, Huang Qingling came out, and it appeared that it was just Huang Qingling alone.

Lin Jing asked:

“Where’s Little Sparrow?”

“It has flown out to hunt, no need to mind it. It will return on its own when it’s time,” Huang Qingling replied. “It has been like this for a while.” “I see…

“Let’s go then…” Lin Jing said.

“Alright…” Huang Qingling nodded.

Thereafter, the two of them walked together towards Yuebaolou.

Arriving at Yuebaolou, Lin Jing followed Huang Qingling, heading straight up the building, all the way to the top floor where Elder Bai used for his cultivation practice.

Just stepping into the top floor, the area was shrouded in formations as before, with a misty expanse around them.

“Old Man Bai, we’re here…” Huang Qingling called out.

No sooner had the words been spoken than the formation opened, and the white mist in front of them instantly dissipated.

They walked straight in and upon entering the room, saw Elder Bai and Elder Yu sitting there, drinking tea.

Seeing Lin Jing come over, Elder Yu spoke up immediately:

“Lin lad, I hear that during the time of my seclusion, you’ve advanced to a Second -Grade Alchemist?”

“Yes, Elder Yu…” Lin Jing replied.

“Not bad at all, just today I’ve seen the elixir medicines you submitted.

Although there are some imperfections, they indeed are at the level of a

Second -Grade Alchemist. ”

“It seems my judgement was not wrong, your talent for alchemy is indeed undeniable.”

“Thanks to Elder Yu’s guidance, without you, I could not have made such quick progress…” Lin Jing spoke.

Touching his beard, Elder Yu’s smile could not be concealed.

“Old man, I haven’t really done much to help you; it’s all due to your own efforts.”

“Enough about this…”

Continuing…

Elder Yu changed the subject and continued:

“You must already know about the departure of Old Bai and me….”
