Chapter 106: Methods to Earn Spirit Stones

Elder Yu pondered for a moment and said,
“Your consideration is sound. This matter still needs to be handled by Elder Bai. You are now a Pill Master offering at Yuebaolou, and he wouldn’t dare to openly harm you.”
“But I know this man holds grudges. If he finds out you are unscathed, he will definitely think of ways to scheme against you.”
“To completely resolve this matter, we still need to inform Elder Bai.” “During this period, just stay in as you used to, without going out.”
“You don’t need to attend the auction either. If nothing unexpected happens, that Liu Yiyuan is bound to attend the auction.”
After Elder Yu finished speaking, he looked towards Huang Qingling, who was clenching her fists tightly, her face full of anger.
“Qing Ling, don’t act rashly either. We must notify Elder Bai about this matter first.”
“I understand, Elder Yu.” Huang Qingling replied, her voice still gruff with anger.
Actually…
There was another reason why Lin Jingzhi decided not to attend the auction.
That was, he planned to use The Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon to change his appearance and identity, and attend the auction himself.
Just now, on the auction item list, Lin Jing saw many desirable items that greatly intrigued him.
If he went with Elder Yu, it would be difficult for him to make a move.
To obtain those items, he could only change his identity and participate in the auction.
And naturally, to participate in an auction, a large quantity of Spirit Stones was needed.
A couple of days ago in the black market, the sale of those First Rank Pure Elixir Medicines, including the high-priced sales to the red-clothed youth and Liu Yiyuan, netted him a total of 230 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.
These Spirit Stones, along with those that Lin Jing had saved up before, all added up…
Lin Jing calculated, and he had a total of 847 Medium Grade Spirit Stones and more than 13,000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones.
Were these Spirit Stones a lot?
Quite a lot.
The Spirit Stones most Foundation Establishment Cultivators carried on them didn’t even amount to one-tenth of what Lin Jing had.
But to say it was a little, it was indeed little.
The auction Lin Jing was planning to attend was no ordinary event; any person participating could easily pull out thousands of Medium Grade Spirit Stones without batting an eye.
So, Lin Jing was still lacking Spirit Stones, seriously lacking.
If he missed the good items at this auction, finding them again later would be even harder.
Take the Biling Flower rhizome, for example; it certainly wasn’t as expensive as the Biling Flower itself, even at an auction.
Lin Jing was determined to win it. Otherwise, if he missed out this time, the next time he encountered a Biling Flower, the price would be more than ten times that of the rhizome.
Soon, the meal was finished.
Elder Yu and Huang Qingling also had to leave.
Before departing, Elder Yu gave some specific instructions.
He told Lin Jing that if there was nothing urgent, it would be better to stay in
as before and go out less.
Since Elder Bai was busy with the auction and wasn’t at Yuebaolou, once he returned, Elder Yu would inform him of the situation.
Even Huang Qingling offered Lin Jing some consolation before leaving, which made him feel somewhat amused and embarrassed.
It was as if he was being treated like a victim.
However, if Liu Yiyuan found out about this, he could truly become a victim.
After seeing off the two, Lin Jing cleaned up the dishes and utensils from the meal and then went to the pavilion. He pondered ways to earn Spirit Stones.
Alchemy?
With only ten days until the auction began, he feared he wouldn’t be able to produce many Pure Elixir Medicines.
But if he didn’t practice alchemy, he had no other methods.
Lin Jing sat on the bench beside the pavilion, gazing at the fishpond next to it, lost in thought.
In the pond, two plump goldfish were frantically fighting over a piece of food; both fish were similar in size and equally fierce.
Therefore, after much struggle, the piece of food never ended up in the mouth of any particular fish. Given that the other goldfish were all quite small, they didn’t dare to approach due to the fierce competition from the two larger, plumper goldfish, choosing to hide far away instead.
However, just as the two large goldfish were engaged in a heated scuffle, an unexpected change occurred.
In the midst of their intense struggle, they flung the food out, and a small fish took this opportunity to quickly snatch the food and swim away.
The two large goldfish, originally entangled in their fight, noticed the food being taken by the small fish and immediately ceased their struggle, swiftly chasing after the small fish.
However, the small fish was very clever and swiftly darted into a crevice in the artificial rock formation. The two large fish followed it to the crevice but found they could not squeeze through, so they could only swim around outside. Lin Jing watched this scene unfold and grinned with amusement.
“These two silly fish…
Then, suddenly, an idea sparked in Lin Jing’s mind.
An ingenious thought spontaneously emerged, and he instantly had a plan.
Next, he not only planned to engage in alchemy but also to refine Pure
Accumulation Elixirs, which were the most scarce in the market recently.
Although Lin Jing wasn’t sure what exactly had occurred, he had noticed a lot of people buying up Pure Accumulation Elixirs and then purchasing large quantities of Dust Cleansing Herbs recently.
Clearly, someone was planning something big.
And from that young man in red’s probing at Fang Market the last time, Lin Jing guessed that this matter was likely not unrelated to them.
Since Lin Jing was out of money, he could make them pay instead. All he had to do was refine the Pure Accumulation Elixirs and then auction them off at the auction house.
If they were really set on carrying out some unsavory scheme, they would surely bid regardless of how many Spirit Stones it cost.
After all, Lin Jing had The Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon, which he could use to completely conceal his true identity, without fear of exposure.
Moreover, Lin Jing knew that Yuebaolou took sellers’ privacy very seriously and wouldn’t leak their information without consent.
Otherwise, it would be a strike against Yuebaolou’s reputation.
And this plan of his posed very little risk.
Afterward, Lin Jing began his research.
He now had, he believed, 471 Harvest Points.
It was a pity that if he had 500 Harvest Points, he could have upgraded his Alchemy Room once again.
Then, the success rate of refining Second Rank Pure Elixir Medicines would significantly increase, which would have been even better.
Thinking this, Lin Jing returned to his room and firmly closed the door behind him.
“Enter System Space.”
As the words left his mouth, Lin Jing directly entered the System Space.
Once inside the System Space, Lin Jing made his way to the Alchemy Room.
First, he opened his Storage Bag and took out some First Rank materials.
Lin Jing planned to start with these First Rank Elixir Medicines to warm up, and when he felt ready, he would switch to refining Clear Accumulation Elixirs.
Then, as usual, Lin Jing made his preparations.
After processing the materials, he started the fire, waited for the right temperature, and then added the materials into the Pill Furnace one by one.
The final step was to seal the furnace.
Time swiftly passed by, and soon, the aroma of elixirs filled the air, and the system prompt sounded at that moment.
“Ding”
“System Notification: Congratulations to the host for successfully refining Pure Elixir Medicine and receiving a reward of 5 Harvest Points.”
This time, luck was on his side, as he managed to refine Pure Elixir Medicine on the first try.
Without taking a rest, Lin Jing continued refining.
The following batch did not yield any Pure Elixir Medicine.
Then, after another batch of First Rank Elixir Medicines, Lin Jing felt the time was right.
After three consecutive batches of Elixir Medicine refining, Lin Jing did not feel any fatigue. This was largely thanks to the Ning Family’s Alchemy Method.
Nevertheless, Lin Jing took a brief rest to fully recover his energy before he continued refining..
