57 Chapter 57 Continuous Alchemy
This day, just after refining a batch of Rejuvenation Elixirs,
Lin Jing transported out of the System Space and pondered for a mont.
He was already extrely adept at refining Rejuvenation Elixirs; the lack of a Pure Elixir should not be an issue of his technique.
Sure enough, in the batch he had just refined, he managed to produce two Supre Elixirs.
It seed that the absence of a Pure Elixir could only be chalked up to luck.
However, a 10% chance was not really high, so he couldn't be too demanding.
Afterward, Lin Jing didn't dwell on it any further.
Next, he prepared to try refining a batch of Foundation Building Elixirs.
......
Two and a half hours later, Lin Jing opened his eyes, ending his ditation. His energy was fully replenished, and he was ready to continue with alchemy.
"Enter System Space."
Lin Jing summoned the system again, and as the scenery before his eyes changed, he arrived inside the System Space.
He didn't pause, but went straight to the Alchemy Room, where the Fire teor Four-Pattern Furnace was placed right in the center.
Lin Jing approached the Pill Furnace, first calming his mind and spirit, then took out the materials and processed them.
This ti, he brought out the spiritual materials required for refining Foundation Building Elixirs, because that was what he planned to refine next.
He wanted to see how his current skill level would fare when trying to refine a different type of Elixir dicine.
However, Lin Jing felt that while he should succeed in refining the Foundation Building Elixirs, the chances of producing a Supre Elixir were slim.
That was because it was his first ti attempting to refine Foundation Building Elixirs.
But even if he didn't produce a Supre Elixir, it didn't matter; after all, it was his first attempt, and even if the refinent failed, Lin Jing could accept it.
Once he had processed the spiritual materials, he lit the fire, placing the materials into the Pill Furnace in turn...
Then ca the long wait...
Of course, he couldn't just idle around; he had to constantly monitor the state of the Elixir dicine inside and control the fla properly.
...
Ti stealthily slipped by, and before he knew it, an hour had passed.
The flas under the Pill Furnace burned fiercely, reddening its base, indicating that the Elixir dicine was close to completion—it was the critical mont for collecting the elixirs.
The Alchemy Room was filled with the fragrance of the elixirs, lingering without dispersing...
Lin Jing knew that the Elixir dicine was ready, but the system prompt hadn't co yet.
"What's going on today? The fragrance has spread; the Elixir dicine should be ready. Could the system have crashed?"
As he was thinking this, the system prompt suddenly rang out.
"Ding"
"System prompt: Congratulations to the host for refining a Pure Elixir, reward granted: 10 Harvest Points."
"Elixir refining successful, Alchemy proficiency 50."
"Pure Elixir."
Lin Jing was shocked, then his mouth curled into a smile, and he laughed.
"Haha..."
"The first ti refining the Foundation Building Elixirs and it produced a Pure Elixir—my luck is really not bad."
"Elder Yu previously said that among second-grade Elixir dicines, Foundation Building Elixirs are the hardest to refine."
Lin Jing then recalled what Elder Yu had ntioned before.
"Among second-grade Elixir dicines, the easiest to refine are the Rejuvenation Elixirs used for repairing injuries, while the hardest are the Foundation Building Elixirs used for breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage."
These were Elder Yu's exact words, but it seed to be the other way around for Lin Jing.
After half a month of continuous refining, he hadn't managed to produce a Pure Elixir in any batches of Rejuvenation Elixirs, yet he achieved a Pure Elixir on his first attempt at refining Foundation Building Elixirs.
After the excitent, Lin Jing didn't forget the important task at hand, taking out the prepared Pure Jade Box and approaching the Pill Furnace.
Opening the Pill Furnace, a stream of white smoke rose gently from within. Lin Jing reached in and scooped out the Elixir dicine. The transparent elixir, enveloped in cloud patterns, shone with a dazzling brilliance in his hand, beautiful to behold.

Opening the Pill Furnace, a stream of white smoke rose gently from within. Lin Jing reached in and scooped out the Elixir dicine. The transparent elixir, enveloped in cloud patterns, shone with a dazzling brilliance in his hand, beautiful to behold.
Inside the Elixir dicine, the liquid flowed slowly as if it were alive, making it hard to bring oneself to swallow it.
Pure Elixirs shouldn't be in contact with the outside world for too long. Lin Jing snapped back to his senses and placed the Elixir dicine into the Pure Jade Box, securing it inside.
After completing all this, Lin Jing gathered the remaining Elixirs—two of dium Grade and one of Low Grade.
Because Pure Elixirs were so overbearing, the mont they ford, the grades of other Elixirs within the sa Pill Furnace would decrease.
```
If elixir dicines had souls, they would surely weep and wail, for not only had their spiritual power been siphoned away by their own kind, leading to a decrease in quality, but they were also subjected to discriminatory treatnt by their master.
Alas, an elixir is just an elixir, devoid of any concept of right and wrong.
......
After finishing alchemy, Lin Jing erged from the System Space.
Today's harvest was quite bountiful, and a Pure Foundation Building Elixir left Lin Jing unable to calm his emotions for a long ti. Helplessly, he opened the door and walked out.
It was already the dead of night, and the outside world was extrely quiet.
With a gentle leap, Lin Jing jumped onto the roof and lay there, gazing at the profound night sky.
The night sky overhead, dotted with stars, appeared no different from that of his hotown.
But upon closer inspection, there were differences.
Lin Jing looked up to see a night sky exceptionally pure, much like the one he saw in the mountain village during his childhood.
It's just that the mories of his childhood had already grown blurry.
In his previous life, once he entered the big city, every day was a struggle for survival.
Back then, he was so busy with the daily grind that life had bent his back.
He had forgotten to look up, forgotten even the appearance of the night sky.
In this mont...
As he watched the night sky, his mories gradually beca clearer, and scenes from his childhood played out in his mind.
He suddenly felt like drinking, yearning for the alcohol from his previous life, the liquor his grandfather used to secretly stash away...
And so, gazing at the night sky, Lin Jing slowly drifted off to sleep...
Since entering the mid-stage of Qi Refinent, he had not slept for a long ti; most of it was spent in ditation.
But today was just right...
......
It wasn't until the next day's early morning light shone on Lin Jing's face that he slowly woke up.
This sleep was incredibly comfortable, and the tiredness from last night's alchemy practice had vanished without a trace.
Stretching his arms, Lin Jing yawned and then moved his sowhat stiff muscles and bones before leaping down from the roof.
Today was yet another day for alchemy.
Lin Jing planned to make use of his good spirits right now to concoct another batch.
Afterward, he returned to the room and once again entered the System Space.
An hour within the System Space later, Lin Jing erged dejected.
This batch had unexpectedly yielded four Supre Rejuvenation Elixirs.
It was the most Supre Elixirs he had ever produced in a single batch since he started making elixir dicines.
Unfortunately, none of these Supre Rejuvenation Elixirs were Pure Elixirs, and for this Lin Jing could only bla his own bad luck.
After coming out of the System Space, Lin Jing imdiately began ditating to recover.
The day was still young, and there was ti to concoct another batch.
......
By evening, the results of the second batch were ready.
With just one dium Grade and two Low Grade, Lin Jing helplessly chuckled. How was it that his alchemy seed to be regressing?
The following days continued in this vein.
The next day, one batch was successful, one failed, no Pure Elixirs...
The third day, two batches failed, one succeeded, no Pure Elixirs...
The fourth day, two batches succeeded, no Pure Elixirs...
The fifth day...
The sixth day...
...
...
Until the tenth day, Lin Jing still had not produced a Pure Body Restoration Pill.
At this mont.
There were only five days left until the deadline of the bet with Li Tangyu.
