Chapter 273: Chapter 255 Refining the Cultivation True Elixir
As Lin Jing left the black market, he headed straight back to his little courtyard.
At the black market, since the elixir medicine sold out quickly and even with the discussion about the auction with Elder Yu, it didn’t take much time.
Thus, when Lin Jing left the black market, it was still quite early.
Upon returning to his courtyard, Lin Jing didn’t linger and after briefly resting, he re-entered the System Space.
In the System Space near the first Spirit Field, Lin Jing looked at the spirit plants inside with a pensive expression.
Each of these spirit plants was thriving well, and several of them appeared close to maturity.
Then Lin Jing turned his head to look at the second Spirit Field next to it, where the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree was still just a tiny sapling poking its head out.
Looking at these spirit plants, Lin Jing then mused to himself,
“It seems that it’s time to start refining third-rank elixir medicine.”
Previously, at the black market, he had indeed seen a third-rank spirit plant he wanted on the list of auction items.
Moreover,
At the grand finale of the auction, Lin Jing actually saw the main ingredient for refining the Nirvana Elixir, the Nirvana Flower.
However, this Nirvana Flower was incomplete.
Despite being incomplete, its value was still high enough to be the showstopper of this auction.
Naturally, Lin Jing was also very interested in this Nirvana Flower.
To others, the value of an incomplete Nirvana Flower was greatly diminished.
But to Lin Jing, there was little difference compared to a complete one.
It was just a matter of spending some more Harvest Points to restore the Nirvana Flower to its complete state.
As the showstopper, the price was definitely not going to be cheap.
Especially with so many Golden Core Immortals interested in the Nirvana Flower, they were bound to be keen.
For Lin Jing to win the Nirvana Flower, he would have to compete with them.
Behind each of these Golden Core Immortals stood an entire family’s support.
To compete with them, Lin Jing faced a real challenge.
On his way back, he kept pondering how he could secure this Nirvana Flower.
After all, the Nirvana Flower was incredibly scarce; the incomplete one might very well be the same one obtained by that Wolf Head Demon Cultivator.
Only, the intense battle back then had damaged this spirit plant.
And as for the black market, who knew where they had gotten it from, or perhaps one of the Golden Core Immortals who had besieged the Wolf Head Demon Cultivator in Fang Market had brought it to the auction.
In the end,
Lin Jing decided to take a chance.
The method he thought of was to speed up the maturation of the Cultivation True Elixir spirit plants that he had already gathered in his Spirit Field.
Then he would refine the Cultivation True Elixir.
By then, he could use the Cultivation True Elixir not only as the grand finale but also the Spirit Stones earned from the auction to bolster his bid for the Nirvana Flower, competing with those Golden Core Immortals on the price.
The appearance of the Cultivation True Elixir would also tempt those Golden Core Immortals who wanted to bid for the Nirvana Flower.
After all, who wouldn’t want their family to gain an additional Golden Core – something of tangible value?
Unlike the Nirvana Flower, even if one successfully bid for it, it wasn’t guaranteed that one could gather the other spirit plants to refine the Nirvana Elixir.
Having made up his mind, Lin Jing hesitated no further.
Next, Lin Jing spoke out, summoning the system:
“System, activate the Spiritual Plant Acceleration Growth function.”
As Lin Jing’s words fell, panels appeared above each spirit plant.
Lin Jing walked directly towards the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree in the second Spirit Field.
The Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree required a hundred years to mature.
Being the slowest, it was naturally the first to be accelerated.
Lin Jing looked down at the panel information above the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree.
Spirit Plant: Blood Red Vermilion Fruit Tree
Current Environment: Demon Race Secret Realm.
Environment Match, Rapid Growth in Progress, Time Remaining Until Maturity: 93 years.
Acceleration Cost: Every 5 Harvest Points negate one year of growth time, can directly accelerate the spirit plant to maturity.
Acceleration Rate: Ten Thousand fold.
To accelerate one year required spending 5 Harvest Points; to accelerate directly to maturity, it would cost 465 Harvest Points.
Lin Jing said it didn’t hurt, but that was a lie.
Until now, Lin Jing had only accumulated just over 5,000 Harvest Points, which definitely wasn’t enough for many acceleration sessions.
However, for the sake of the Nirvana Flower.
No matter what, he had to accelerate.
Then, Lin Jing directly spoke out, saying,
“System, accelerate the growth of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree.”
As Lin Jing’s voice fell, a light screen extended from the ground and slowly, the light screen began to close in, completely enveloping the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree.
Shortly after.
A system notification came through, and Lin Jing’s Harvest Points started to be deducted.
Obviously, as soon as the light screen enveloped the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree, the acceleration had already begun.
After accelerating the growth of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree, Lin Jing continued back to Spirit Field No. 1 to look at the other Spirit Plants.
Although these few Spirit Plants didn’t need as much time as the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree, they also needed acceleration to be harvested quickly.
Then, Lin Jing went in front of the other Spirit Plants and began to accelerate their growth as well.
…
…
Some time later, suddenly, a system notification startled the meditating Lin Jing awake.
“Ding!”
“System notification: Acceleration of the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree’s growth has been completed. Acceleration time: 93 years. 465 Harvest Points deducted, current Harvest Points remaining: 4,720.”
“Congratulations to the host for harvesting a Third Rank Spirit Plant, the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, and receiving a reward of 35 Harvest Points.” (Note: Harvest Points cannot be obtained during the acceleration period.)
Once the acceleration was complete, Lin Jing immediately went to Spirit Field No. 2.
There, in Spirit Field No. 2, stood a towering Blood Red Vermilion Fruit tree, swaying in the wind.
On its dense branches hung six blood-red fruits, partially hidden among the foliage.
The Blood Red Vermilion Fruits were ripe, yielding six fruits at a time.
These six fruits could then be used to refine six batches of Cultivation True Elixir.
Lin Jing then harvested these fruits.
Afterward, he headed straight for the Alchemy Room.
At this moment.
Lin Jing had just adjusted his condition; now brimming with energy, he was ready to strike while the iron was hot and attempt to refine the Cultivation True Elixir in one go.
If he could refine an impeccable Cultivation True Elixir, all the better.
Next.
Lin Jing took out the other Spirit Plants he had obtained through acceleration: the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit, Rock Heart Grass, Moon Mulberry Spirit Fruit, and Cleansing Spirit Grass, along with the rare Second Rank Spirit Plants that he had stocked up on beforehand…
All these together constituted all the ingredients needed to refine the Cultivation True Elixir.
After taking them out, he began to recall the content he had seen previously in the recipe for the Cultivation True Elixir.
He had obtained this recipe for the Cultivation True Elixir from Elder Yu without spending a single Spirit Stone.
Feeling fully prepared, Lin Jing then started the first step of processing the medicinal ingredients.
This step was a bit cumbersome.
It took Lin Jing almost an hour to process all these Spirit Plants completely.
After the processing was finished, Lin Jing took a short rest.
It was his first time refining a Third Rank Elixir Medicine, so he definitely wanted to be in optimal condition.
Soon, Lin Jing fully recovered.
Then, Lin Jing activated the Divine Fire Triple Realm, and with a “whoosh,” white flames rose from his hands.
Afterwards, Lin Jing extended his hand, directly controlling the white flames to go under the Fire Meteor Four-Pattern Furnace…
The flames condensed from the Divine Fire Triple Realm were incredibly hot.
In no time at all, the Fire Meteor Four-Pattern Furnace began to react.
And at that moment.
Lin Jing placed the Spirit Plants, one by one, in the order specified by the pill recipe, into the Pill Furnace.
Once all the ingredients were inside the Pill Furnace, Lin Jing immediately sealed the cover and sat down on the ground, beginning to refine the elixir…
