Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 652

?Chapter 652: Chapter 278 Protection from the Yan Family’s Ancestor_2 Chapter 652: Chapter 278 Protection from the Yan Family’s Ancestor_2 Hearing this, many people around looked at Lin Jing with immense envy.

With the words of the Yan Family ancestor, in the future, in the Southern Outer Sea, there would probably be very few who dared to offend Lin Jing.

After all,

since the Yan Family ancestor had spoken, if anyone dared to target Lin Jing, it would be like slapping the Yan Family ancestor in the face.

These people weren’t fools; naturally, they wouldn’t casually offend a Divine Transformation Peak Great Cultivator.

The hunchbacked old man twitched the corners of his mouth upon hearing this and then repeatedly waved his hands:

“Forget it, I wouldn’t dare, I’m afraid you’d beat me up.”

Lin Jing could tell that the hunchbacked old man must have had a good relationship with the Yan Family ancestor; otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a joke.

…

After the jokes, the True Dragon Island Island Master spoke up:

“Well, now that everyone is here, can we start the trading assembly?”

The rest nodded:

“Fine, let’s start now.”

Then, several people took their seats, with the Yan Family ancestor even sitting directly beside Yan Ming.

After sitting down, the Yan Family ancestor continued:

“That old toad is from the Northern Divine Toad Island, the Divine Toad himself.

He and I have a fairly good relationship.”

“If you run into trouble in the northern part of the Outer Seas, you can ask him for help.

On account of my face, he won’t ignore you.”

The weight of this statement was certainly not light, and it left Lin Jing feeling unexpectedly honoured.

“Senior…”

“How can I accept this?”

If, because of Yan Xing and Yan Yue, the Yan Family ancestor supported Lin Jing on the spot, that could be seen as the Yan Family’s gratitude towards Lin Jing.

But now, even bringing in his own trusted friend, it went beyond simple gratitude.

The Yan Family ancestor seemed to sense Lin Jing’s concern and spoke up:

“I do this because there is actually something I need your help with.”

Hearing this, Lin Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, one should not accept rewards without merit, and Lin Jing had only refined two batches of Elixir Furnace Medicine, yet the Yan Family ancestor treated him to such an extent.

It was clear that the Yan Family ancestor was being too good to him, a kindness that felt somewhat unreal to Lin Jing.

After all, he seemed to only possess Nascent Soul cultivation, while the other party was a whole major realm higher than him.

Now that he was asked for help, everything seemed reasonable.

Lin Jing hurriedly responded:

“Senior Yan, please speak.”

The Yan Family ancestor then said:

“The Yan Family has cultivated Spiritual Plants for many years, and every so often, we accumulate a good number of High-Grade Spiritual Plants.”

“Among these plants, some special Spirit Plants cannot be stored for long.

They must be refined into Elixir Medicine soon after harvesting, otherwise, much of their medicinal potency will be lost, even if refined into Elixir Medicine, the quality will be diminished greatly.”

“Just those plants I mentioned, they could be refined into more than twenty batches of Fifth-Rank Elixir Medicine.”

“In the past when our Sect had a backlog of such imperishable Spiritual Plants, we found other Alchemists to refine them into Elixir Medicine.”

“But since last time, Ming’er said your Alchemy is extraordinary, if refined by you, there should be the possibility of producing Superior or even Supreme Grade Elixir Medicine.”

“That way, we wouldn’t waste those Spirit Plants.”

“So, I was thinking of asking for your help to refine these Elixir Medicine.”

“What do you think about this?”

Having finished, the Yan Family ancestor added another sentence:

“Of course, if you are unwilling, we will not force you, and we will find someone else.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was momentarily stunned.

Alchemy might be troublesome for others,

but for him, it was a good opportunity.

Not to mention, Lin Jing was currently worrying about where to find High-Grade Spiritual Plants.

?????.??

Now that he had become a Sixth Grade Pill Master, he could only increase his Alchemy Proficiency by refining Fifth-Rank or higher Elixir Medicine.

Without High-Grade Spiritual Plants, his Alchemy Proficiency would come to a complete halt, and to ascend to be a Seventh Grade Alchemist, who knew how long that would take.

Now with the Spirit Plants from the Yan Family, Lin Jing could continue to increase his Alchemy Proficiency.

Furthermore, if he refined Elixir Medicine within the System Space, with the bonus of the Alchemy Room, there was a very possible chance of producing Pure Elixir.

Fifth-Rank Pure Elixirs were exceedingly rare.

Just one could sell for an astronomical price.

If Lin Jing truly refined Pure Elixir Medicine, he would definitely keep them for himself.

Unfortunately, whether it was the System Space or his status as a Lin Family successor, Lin Jing could not expose either.

In order not to arouse suspicion, even if he produced Pure Elixir Medicine while helping the Yan Family, he could not reveal them.

As for the other Elixir Medicine, he could leave them all to the Yan Family.

His own involvement in refining could also lead to a not-so-small chance of producing Supreme Grade Elixir Medicine.

With those Supreme Grade Elixir Medicine, he would certainly delight the Yan Family.

“It’s just Alchemy, a small matter.”

“Elder, please rest assured, leave the matter of Alchemy to me,” Lin Jing spoke.

The Yan Family’s ancestor nodded and then looked toward the few Divine Transformation Cultivators ahead and said:

“Since you’re helping us refine elixir medicines, our Yan Family will certainly not treat you poorly.

Take a look at the items those old fellows will bring out later.”

“If there’s anything you fancy, just speak up, and I’ll help you obtain it.”

“Elder…”

Lin Jing had just begun to speak when he was interrupted by Yan Ming.

“Brother Lin.”

“Listen to me, don’t refuse the Elder’s kindness.

If you don’t accept, we’ll feel awkward asking you for Alchemy again.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was initially startled, then he realized and bowed to the Yan Family’s ancestor, saying:

“Alright!”

“In that case, I thank Elder Yan for his generosity.”

Upon hearing this, the Yan Family’s elder stroked his beard and smiled, saying:

“You’re too polite…”

…

While they were talking, the exchange meeting had already started.

The first to speak was none other than that Divine Toad Cultivator.

One could see the Divine Toad Cultivator stand up and extend his hand towards everyone present.

In his hands, two spherical objects floated in mid-air; they were purple, and within them seemed to flow something akin to clouds or mist.

The Divine Toad Cultivator then said:

“In my hands are two Explosive Poison Beads, personally forged by me as one-time forbidden treasures.”

“These Explosive Poison Beads are extremely simple to use, requiring no Refinement.

Just activate and throw them, and that’s it.”

“Moreover, their power is astonishing.

Once a poison bead explodes, its poisonous mist can spread for hundreds of miles in a short period.”

“And this poisonous mist, even Divine Transformation Cultivators wouldn’t dare to come into contact with it lightly; at the least it would cause their Cultivation to fall, or at worst, turn them directly into ash.”

Upon saying this, the Divine Toad Cultivator giggled and looked towards the other Divine Transformation Cultivators:

“Hehe…”

“So, do any of you fancy these Explosive Poison Beads?

I’m not asking much, just looking to trade for a Supreme Grade defensive Dao Artifact.”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads away.

Despite the impressive description by the Divine Toad Cultivator, the beads weren’t as useful in practice.

The main issue was that the Explosive Poison Beads were indiscriminate in their attack.

Once thrown, even the user couldn’t go near them.

Moreover, the spread of the poison mist was slow, and Divine Transformation Cultivators could easily dodge it.

No one would foolishly stand in the area of the mist unless they faced some special situation that rendered them immobile.

Though the Explosive Poison Beads had many shortcomings, they could be quite effective for wiping out a Sect.

Particularly in the case of a Sect or Clan’s base—if one were to be thrown into it, the result would certainly be a horrific disaster.

The Divine Toad Cultivator’s practiced spells were related to poison, and his Divine Toad Island was known for breeding many poisonous creatures.

He himself had a particular fondness for researching such things.

So, nobody was interested in the items presented by the Divine Toad Cultivator.

Even the Yan Family’s ancestor spoke at this point:

“Old Frog, you’re being a bit greedy.”

“Who among us has a Supreme Grade defensive Dao Artifact?”

The Divine Toad Cultivator wasn’t offended and chuckled in response:

“Hehe…”

“Even if there’s no Supreme Grade defensive Dao Artifact, a Superior defensive Dao Artifact would do.

If not, I can add one more bead, making it three Explosive Poison Beads.”

The Yan Family’s ancestor shook his head helplessly:

“Enough…”

“With your Explosive Poison Beads, it’s unlikely anyone will want them.

Better to trade them for something else, or simply let the next person have a turn.”

Realizing the situation, the Divine Toad Cultivator no longer insisted and lowered his demands.

With one of the beads, he traded for some rare poisonous herbs needed for his poison art research.

Then he sat down contentedly.

After the Divine Toad Cultivator sat down, the real trading at the exchange meeting began.

One Cultivator after another displayed their items for trade, as well as what treasures they desired in exchange.

Lin Jing, however, remained still.

He didn’t currently have anything to barter with, and he didn’t have anything specific he wanted either.

It was then that the Yan Family’s ancestor had asked Lin Jing if there was anything he wanted, to which Lin Jing just shook his head.

Time passed in this way until finally, it was the turn of that Cultivator seemingly acquainted with Lord Ye Lin.

The Cultivator rose to his feet, faced Lin Jing’s direction, and then spoke to the Yan Family’s elder:

“Elder Yan!”

“I have heard that the Elder possesses a piece of Jade Soul Algae.

May I inquire if the Elder is willing to trade it?”
