Could you give us a few more days? We will pay you back after that,” someone spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he turned into the alley, Lin Jing heard the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing looked up and saw Zhang Sen and Zhang Lin, two brothers, talking with his young female neighbor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And behind the neighbor, a cute little girl was timidly hiding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young woman’s brows were furrowed as she looked at the two men coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Zhang Sen, seeing Lin Jing approaching, hurriedly greeted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Lin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Sen’s face lit up with a smile as he walked towards Lin Jing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Zhang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the other party had already come over, it was not good for Lin Jing to avoid him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Lin might not be acquainted with Ning Daoyou yet. We will be neighbors from now on, and we’ll inevitably need to help each other. Let me introduce you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he led Lin Jing over to the young woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is Ning Yue, Ning Daoyou.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, he turned to Ning Yue and introduced:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Daoyou, this is Lin Jing, Lin Daoyou.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He lives right next to you and moved in over two months ago. He doesn’t often go out; I presume you haven’t met before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Zhang Sen introduced Lin Jing, the little girl poked her head out from behind and glanced at Lin Jing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling her gaze, Lin Jing also looked back, and like a startled rabbit, the little girl quickly hid behind her mother again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Lin,” Zhang Sen said with a beaming smile: “It’s an act of mercy to help those in urgent need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We previously borrowed some Spirit Stones from Ning Daoyou, and now she suddenly needs them for an emergency. But my hands are tied these few days; I can’t gather enough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I would like to ask Brother Lin to lend me some Spirit Stones, so I can repay Ning Daoyou first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not much, just five Spirit Stones will do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, Brother Lin, as soon as my finances are better in a few days, I will definitely repay you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Lin, please help,” Zhang Sen spoke again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please be at ease, Brother Lin. Once I’ve earned some Spirit Stones in a few days, I will pay you back immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing how earnest Zhang Sen was, Lin Jing decided to trust him for once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Lin Jing took out five Spirit Stones from his bosom and handed them over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When outside, Lin Jing always hid his Storage Bag and only carried a few Spirit Stones on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone at the Second Rank of Qi Refinement like him, possessing a Storage Bag was not ordinary. If seen by others, it may evoke malicious intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Storage Bag costs at least a few hundred Spirit Stones, not something a minor Cultivator at the Second Rank of Qi Refinement could afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, with his current low strength, it was still best to be cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you very much, Brother Lin,” Zhang Sen couldn’t hide his joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking the Spirit Stones, Zhang Sen handed them straight to Ning Yue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Daoyou, we are even now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Yue took the Spirit Stones and nodded slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Daoyou, Brother Lin, we brothers have matters to attend to and will take our leave now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their business concluded, Zhang Sen and Zhang Lin prepared to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rest assured, Brother Lin, I will return the Spirit Stones to you in a few days.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Sen continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Also, I forgot to mention, Ning Daoyou here is an alchemist. If you need Elixir Medicine crafted in the future, you can seek her assistance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ning Daoyou, Brother Lin, we bid you farewell.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, the two turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alchemist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing looked at Ning Yue. She had a graceful figure but wasn’t very pretty, her complexion sallow as if she had been malnourished for a long time, and there was a brown patch on her cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle, you’ve been deceived,” a timid voice came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the little girl, holding onto Ning Yue’s skirt and peering out with her head, her voice trembling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mother said, those two are bad people who often borrow money and don’t pay back. You’ve been tricked by them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Luo Luo, don’t talk nonsense,” Ning Yue chided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl upon hearing this, quickly shrank her head back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Daoyou, I will take my leave now,” she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, without waiting for Lin Jing to react, she took the little girl and returned to her own courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a loud “bang,” the courtyard door closed behind them, leaving only Lin Jing behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing understood that, clearly, she still didn’t trust him and was wary of him, not wanting to get involved with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, he let it go, thinking how he wasn’t any different, as he also disliked trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having thought it through, he headed towards his own house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once back in his room, Lin Jing took out the Pill Furnace from his Storage Bag, ready to begin Alchemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he studied the pill recipe, familiarized himself with the production process, and then Lin Jing took out the materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s start with the simplest Fasting Pill.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After processing the spirit materials needed for the Fasting Pill, he placed them into the furnace in order and began to light the fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flames surged, and after a while, the Pill Furnace began to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Controlling Fire Technique.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing carefully used the Controlling Fire Technique to manipulate the flames, regulating the temperature to ensure it wasn’t too fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he extended his Divine Sense into the furnace to monitor the condition of the Elixir Medicine inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, with the strength of Lin Jing’s Divine Sense at the moment, it barely lasted for long, and soon Lin Jing couldn’t hold on and withdrew it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an incense stick’s time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A muffled sound came from within the Pill Furnace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did it explode?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing frowned and went to check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lifted the lid of the furnace and looked inside to see black shards filling it—there was no sign of Elixir Medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he checked the body of the furnace, which was undamaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s good,” Lin Jing was relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing recalled the alchemy steps he had just performed and after pondering for a while, started preparing materials again to continue Alchemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that Alchemy could not possibly go smoothly from the start; it was bound to fail a few times at the beginning, so Lin Jing was not discouraged at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the second attempt at Alchemy, he took the lessons from the last time to heart, being even more careful with controlling the flame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, with another “boom,” the second batch of Elixir Medicine was declared a failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time Lin Jing started without any pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the duration of the alchemy process was a bit longer than the previous two attempts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing had some insight, but felt as if he was always grasping at something just out of reach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing continued the Alchemy process, but the results were far from satisfactory, repeatedly ending in explosions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lin Jing did not give up but persisted in Alchemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, on the eighth attempt, there was no “boom” sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did it succeed?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as a smile began to form on Lin Jing’s face, a foul odor escaped from the furnace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This smell…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His brow furrowed, he stepped forward and lifted the furnace lid, with the stench assaulting his nostrils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ugh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intense foul odor almost made him vomit last night’s dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Lin Jing ran out of the room, taking deep breaths of fresh air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long while passed before the smell in the room had mostly dissipated, and Lin Jing dared to go back inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to the room, Lin Jing first cleared out the source of the foul smell in the Pill Furnace, a pool of viscous liquid, and then along with the previous alchemy failures, he cleaned out all the residue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Lin Jing begin to reflect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Alchemy Technique he got from Manager Li obviously had problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until Lin Jing started to engage in Alchemy himself that he realized that the Alchemy Technique was full of errors and omissions, and even some parts were glossed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This led him to a continuous cycle of trial and error.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems that Senior Han probably didn’t really understand either that this Alchemy Technique, starting from the First Rank Elixir Medicines, has a much higher failure rate than other alchemy techniques.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could it be that Manager Li has tricked me?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1490,"2026-06-05T22:03:17.164Z",1,"novelbin.me","952af0f780286abc2861ad3894ffd8a4d53745760d3303d98768cd8d9f3b5993","immortality-cultivation-i-farm-in-the-system-spa-chapter-13","immortality-cultivation-i-farm-in-the-system-spa-chapter-11",965,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortality-cultivation-i-farm-in-the-system-spa-cover.jpg"]
