Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

“So…”

“That’s why I sought you out for the upcoming competition.”

“And just as expected, you won!”

At this point, Ji Xiyue looked up, staring straight at Lin Jing before speaking,

“To truly confirm your identity, it was actually just now…”

“Just now?”

Lin Jing’s brows furrowed slightly as something seemed to dawn on him.

“Yes, just now…”

“When I asked you earlier, didn’t you respond?”

“Isn’t that right, the heir of the Lin Family, the long-established family of the Ancient Alchemy Path, Lin Jing!”

At this, Ji Xiyue laughed again, her eyes curving like crescent moons. She seemed very pleased, almost like a little fox that had stolen a chicken…

Lin Jing found himself at a loss for words, not expecting it to be like this; he had been outwitted by this woman.

“So you’ve been uncertain all along, always just probing me?” Lin Jing said, his face darkening.

Ji Xiyue nodded and spoke to Lin Jing,

“Yes, it’s exactly like that!”

After finishing, Ji Xiyue didn’t forget to console Lin Jing,

“But you don’t have to worry about it. Whether or not you admit it, it doesn’t make much difference.”

“After all…”

“The Elixir Medicine you’ve concocted doesn’t lie,”

“Since I had my suspicions, I would surely use all means to collect evidence and confirm your identity.”

Hearing this, Lin Jing looked up at Ji Xiyue.

Ji Xiyue hurriedly said,

“Don’t look at me like that…”

“You should understand that it’s not just me— as long as you continue alchemy, someone will always be skeptical.”

“Your identity won’t stay hidden for long.”

After hearing this, Lin Jing also fell silent.

He understood this truth all too well.

He needed Elixir Medicine to enhance his cultivation, and those around him needed them as well. The more Elixir Medicines he produced, the more inevitable it was that flaws would be exposed, greatly increasing the chances of being discovered.

But that didn’t mean he could afford to give up on Alchemy for fear of choking.

Moreover, Lin Jing, aside from practicing the Alchemy Techniques of the Lin Family, also had access to the System Space.

And the Alchemy Dao of the Lin Family could serve as a cover for the existence of the System Space, preventing unnecessary suspicion.

Therefore, he was determined to continue with alchemy.

What Lin Jing could do was to try his best not to concoct Elixir Medicines in front of others, thereby delaying the time of exposure.

“So that’s the first question asked, right?” Ji Xiyue said, addressing Lin Jing.

Lin Jing nodded and answered,

“Yes…”

“I’ve finished asking the first question.”

Then, Lin Jing turned to Ji Xiyue to say,

“Now, onto the second question.”

“What is your true intention in doing this?”

…

…

“I want to take you as my master and become your disciple!!!”

Ji Xiyue looked directly at Lin Jing and said it straight out.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing’s eyebrows immediately knitted together, then he answered,

“Impossible…”

“You should know, the Alchemy Techniques aren’t something to be passed on lightly.”

“Moreover, since you have your own Sect, it’s even less likely that I would take you as my disciple.”

However, Ji Xiyue’s next words left Lin Jing completely silent.

“What if I leave the Xingluo Elixir Sect, would you take me on then?”

The top talent of the Xingluo Elixir Sect planning to leave…

Even if Ji Xiyue dared to leave, Lin Jing wouldn’t dare to accept her as a disciple.

Furthermore, Ji Xiyue’s father was the Grand Elder of the Xingluo Elixir Sect—could she even manage to leave if she wished to?

Lin Jing looked at Ji Xiyue and saw that she was gazing back at him, her expression extremely serious.

Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel a sinking feeling,

“Could Ji Xiyue really be considering leaving the Xingluo Elixir Sect to become my disciple?”

Then, Lin Jing quickly shook his head, outright refusing,

“That’s not possible…”

“You are the first genius Alchemist of the Xingluo Elixir Sect, how could you possibly take me as your master? If you were to suddenly become my disciple, not to mention the other members of the Xingluo Elixir Sect, I’m afraid even your father would not let me off the hook,”

However, at this moment, Ji Xiyue took a step forward, approaching Lin Jing and whispered softly:

“How about I secretly become your disciple?”

“To the outside world we would still be considered fellow Daoists, but if there are no outsiders around, you would be my master. If Master wants me to do anything at that time, I won’t have any problems with it…”

“As long as you pass on some Alchemy Techniques to me, that would be enough…”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing suddenly turned his head to look at Ji Xiyue.

And Ji Xiyue, not avoiding his gaze at all, looked into Lin Jing’s eyes with some longing…

This eye contact between the two lasted for a full quarter of an hour.

Not until a quarter of an hour later did Ji Xiyue lower her head with a blushing face.

And Lin Jing’s expression had become much colder:

“Ji Daoyou…”

“I think there’s nothing left to talk about between us.”

On hearing this, Ji Xiyue’s face turned slightly red as she bowed her hands towards Lin Jing:

“Lin Daoyou, I’m sorry…”

“It was presumptuous of me. I will definitely not use any charm enchantments on Lin Daoyou again.”

…

In fact.

The reason Ji Xiyue acted the way she did was because she practiced a kind of charm enchantment.

This charm enchantment was different from others. It slowly infiltrated the sea of consciousness and subtly changed some of a person’s thoughts.

Most people would not notice it.

The reason Lin Jing suddenly changed his attitude was because he discovered Ji Xiyue was secretly using the charm enchantment on him.

And Ji Xiyue’s objective, needless to say, was directly aimed at the Lin Family’s Alchemy Techniques.

Originally, that charm enchantment should have been very difficult for Lin Jing to detect.

Only, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense was extremely powerful. Although his Cultivation was only at the seventh layer of Nascent Soul, his Divine Sense had long surpassed Ji Xiyue’s and reached the Nascent Soul Peak Stage.

It was precisely because his Divine Sense was so strong that Lin Jing was not influenced by Ji Xiyue and was able to detect the inappropriateness.

Moreover, Ji Xiyue seemed to be too hasty in her action, which was also too irrational.

Such behavior from Ji Xiyue had touched Lin Jing’s bottom line, thus his face turned cold at that moment.

…

After that.

Seeing that Lin Jing’s expression did not improve, Ji Xiyue quickly spoke up to explain:

“Lin Daoyou, it was indeed my fault just now, and I apologize to you.”

“In fact, my goal was not to become your disciple, and I know that to ask you to be my master is impossible.”

“I just wanted you to help me repair the incomplete technique I had previously obtained.”

“As long as Lin Daoyou can help me repair that technique, whatever you need, just say it, and I will try my best to satisfy your request.”

When Lin Jing looked at Ji Xiyue again, his expression was indifferent as he spoke directly:

“Ji Daoyou…”

“I think you have misunderstood. Between us, there is only the wager on those three questions. Besides that, there are no other ties.”

“Also, it seems you have overestimated me.”

“The books of Ancient Alchemy Path handed down from ancient times are not something anyone can repair.”

“Well then…”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now, farewell!”

After saying that, Lin Jing began to walk down the mountain.

At this moment, Ji Xiyue quickly spoke up and called out to Lin Jing:

“Lin Jing…”

“There’s still one question you haven’t asked…”

However, without turning back, Lin Jing replied:

“No need, it’s no longer necessary.”

Then, without any pause, Lin Jing continued down the mountain.

Only after Lin Jing had been gone for a long time…

Did Ji Xiyue, who had been staring at his departing figure, finally snap back to reality.

Looking in the direction where Lin Jing had gone, Ji Xiyue furrowed her brows and after a while, muttered to herself:

“It’s over now, he’s really angry…”

Then, glancing down the mountain again and not seeing that familiar figure, she immediately looked dejected.

After a while, Ji Xiyue said indignantly:

“Ji Xiyue, how could you be so foolish to think of using charm enchantments on a descendant of the Ancient Alchemy Path with strong Divine Sense.”

“Now look what you’ve done, you’ve messed it all up…”

Afterward, Ji Xiyue’s brows furrowed again as she looked up in the direction Lin Jing had left:

“Looks like it’s going to take a lot of effort to mend my relationship with him from now on…”
