Chapter 82 - 82 New System Features
“Many thanks for your high regard, Elder Bai.” Lin Jing bowed his hands in respect.
Elder Bai waved his hand, continuing to speak:
“Furthermore, I’ve recently heard quite a few rumors about you. Pay no mind to them; they wouldn’t dare to go too far.”
“As long as you become a second-grade Pill Master, they will naturally shut their mouths.”
What Elder Bai referred to were naturally the other Offering Priests at Yuebaolou.
Because Lin Jing was a first-grade Alchemist, there were many rumors about him, but most were not too friendly.
As for the reason behind taking Lin Jing under their wing, perhaps as a form of protection, Elder Bai and Elder Yu did not reveal this to the outside.
“Elder Bai, it’s fine, let them talk. I just need to concoct my Elixir Medicine properly.”
In this regard, Lin Jing was indifferent and too lazy to explain anything to anyone.
“Come, Elder Bai, Elder Yu…”
“Try today’s dishes. Qing Ling also lent a hand, and we’ve been busy for quite a while. ”
“Qing Ling even helped? Then I must give it a try.” Elder Yu said with a laugh. After which, Elder Bai also picked up a morsel of food and began to taste it.
“Oh right, there’s another matter.”
Having just taken a couple of bites, Elder Bai continued to speak.
“The day after tomorrow, someone is going to hold a banquet at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, and you should both attend.”
“A banquet?” Lin Jing questioned.
Even Huang Qingling, who was constantly chewing on her food, raised her head to look at Elder Bai, evidently unaware of this event.
“A banquet? What’s the occasion this time?”
Huang Qingling swallowed the delicacy in her mouth and asked with curiosity.
“This time, it’s because the Young Master of the Li Family has successfully advanced to a third -grade Alchemist. The Li Family has specially reserved the entire Drunken Immortal Pavilion to hold a grand banquet in celebration.”
“They’ve invited many members from various families within the Fang Market, which includes quite a few famous Pill Masters.”
“The Young Master of the Li Family, isn’t that Li Tangyu?
“I remember him; didn’t we meet him the last time you took me to the Li Family?” Huang Qingling recalled, speaking to Elder Bai.
“Yes, that’s him.” Elder Bai nodded.
“Li Tangyu…” As Huang Qingling mentioned this, Lin Jing also began to remember.
Wasn’t that the man who gambled with him at the black market not long ago?
Back then, he seemed to be on the verge of advancing to a third-grade Alchemist, and now, he has finally made the breakthrough.
Lin Jing then spoke up:
‘Elder Bai, I don’t need to go, do I? After all, those attending the banquet are all important members of the various families within the Fang Market, as well as Alchemists of the second grade and above.”
“I am neither of these…”
“You should come as well. At that time, you can follow Elder Yu, attending under the name of his junior. It will be good for broadening your horizons.” Elder Bai said.
Huang Qingling quickly chimed in after Elder Bai:
“Yes, do come along. You can join me when it’s time.”
“I’m not very familiar with them either, and if you don’t go, I won’t feel comfortable without anyone familiar by my side.”
“Alright then…”
Seeing that both Elder Bai and Huang Qingling insisted, Lin Jing found it hard to refuse and therefore nodded his agreement.
Subsequently, everyone continued…
Until late at night, when they had all dispersed, Lin Jing cleaned up.
He then entered the System Space once again, instantly feeling the rich Spiritual Energy.
The concentration of this Spiritual Energy was even greater than before, when he was in Elder Bail s room.
“Open the system panel.”
Eager to proceed, Lin Jing immediately opened the system panel and began to check.
System Space (Level 3)
Remaining Time: 28 hours (Accumulatable: 300 hours)
Host: Lin Jing
Spirit Field Area: 30 mu
Spiritual Energy Concentration: 3 Time Flow Rate: 3
Daily entry time: 6 hours
Upgrade requirement: (2/2000 Harvest Points)
Special functions: Alert, Observation, Accumulative Time.
New features: Four Seasons Timing, Environmental Landforms (Four Seasons Timing: The System Space activates the Four Seasons system, operating according to real world patterns, which the host can change at will.)
(Environmental Landforms: The host can freely change the terrain and environment within the System Space or the Spirit Field to adapt to the survival needs of various Spirit Plants.) “The environment and terrain can be changed.”
Lin Jing silently pondered:
“I’ve got to try this.”
With that thought, Lin Jing called out to the system.
“System.”
“How do I change the seasons and weather?”
“Master, please specify the desired season and weather, and the system will adjust them automatically for you.”
“Spring, light rain,” Lin Jing thought for a moment, then blurted out.
Soon, the weather in the System Space changed, becoming much more mellow, followed by a gentle breeze…
At the same time, a light rain began to pour down from the sky.
In the rain, the Spirit Plants in the Spirit Field swayed gently, accompanied by the breeze, a sense of spring burgeoning forth.
Lin Jing took a deep breath; this was indeed the scent of spring.
After feeling it with his heart for a moment and looking at the ground beneath his feet, Lin Jing pondered for a while… “System, change the terrain to mountain peaks.”
“Yes, Master.”
Then the terrain began to change; the ground beneath Lin Jing’s feet slowly turned to stone, and high elevations began to rise unevenly.
Of course, the Spirit Field was an exception; the ground inside remained as soil, with the Spirit Plants still growing vigorously.
The terrain spread, transforming the entire System Space into rocky terrain.
In the distance, the edge of the System Space even turned into a sheer cliff, and the air became thinner still.
However, the transformation was not over yet; after the terrain had changed, clouds and mist also started to rise and spread within the entire System Space.
At that moment, Lin Jing felt as if he were standing inside an Immortal Palace.
Lin Jing stood there, closed his eyes, and felt for a while, then he spoke:
“System, restore.”
Subsequently, the System Space changed once again, reverting to its original state.
“Ding”
“Warning, Demonic Beasts have intruded into the alert perimeter, please respond promptly, host.”
Just as Lin Jing was still lingering over his previous experience, a system alert interrupted his enjoyment.
Lin Jing’s mouth twitched, and he thought to himself,
“No doubt, it’s Little Sparrow again.”
Every time after the gatherings, in the middle of the night, it would always come looking for food.
This time, I need to have a good look.
“Activate Observation Mode,” Lin Jing commanded directly.
Following that, the point of view rose, and Observation Mode activated.
Lin Jing switched to Observation Mode, his gaze following into the kitchen, where he caught sight of a dark figure rummaging around.
Isn’t that Little Sparrow?
At the moment, its small eyes were full of confusion.
With its current intelligence, it probably couldn’t understand why Lin Jing could always bring out many delicious items upon entering this room, whereas it found nothing when it entered.
Lin Jing watched Little Sparrow searching around in the kitchen and was quite speechless.
Actually, he didn’t really mind Little Sparrow coming over.
Now, it wouldn’t attack Lin Jing but was just looking for something to eat.
However, it always came in the dead of night and managed to trigger a system alert each time.
This caused Lin Jing to be easily distracted during Alchemy.
And even…
There were two occasions where Little Sparrow’s system alert led to the failure of what would have been a successful Elixir Medicine because Lin Jing got distracted.
Therefore, this matter must be resolved..
