Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Qi Refinement Level 8

After giving his instructions, it wasn’t long before Elder Yu left.
In the following period, Lin Jing did as Elder Yu had said, hardly ever leaving the house except for visits to Yuebaolou.
He spent most of his time cultivating his techniques.
He even put alchemy aside for a while.
It wasn’t until he had successfully cultivated the Immortal Path Five Elements Technique that he resumed alchemy.
After switching to the Immortal Path Five Elements Technique, Lin Jing felt that his cultivation speed had increased significantly.
Of course, that was in comparison to his former self. Compared with other cultivators with better Spiritual Roots, he still couldn’t match up, not to mention a genius like Huang Qingling.
Lin Jing estimated that his current cultivation speed was only about the same as that of a cultivator with the four Elements Spiritual Roots.
Lately, Qing Ling had also been behaving, not wandering around as much, possibly because Elder Bai wasn’t at Yuebaolou, hence, he also visited much less frequently.
Instead, he often came to visit Lin Jing, mooching off meals and drinks, and of course, the ever-greedy Little Sparrow was always with him.
Ever since the System Space was upgraded to Level Three, the amount of time Lin Jing could spend inside the System Space each day increased dramatically, and with the time flow acceleration, he could now stay there for a full 18 hours every day.
With so much time, as long as there were no special circumstances, it was more than enough for Lin Jing’s alchemy needs.
Therefore, he had a lot of free time outside of cultivation.
For this reason, he didn’t mind Qing Ling’s interruptions.
Just like that, two months flew by quickly…
During these two months, the struggle between the Zhang Family, the Liu Clan, and the Li Family intensified, eventually disrupting the entire Fang Market.
In the end, it was the Fang Market officials themselves who stepped in to temporarily quell the strife between the three families.
Another matter was that Elder Master Li had successfully concocted the Cultivation True Elixir, producing five pills in one batch, with three of them being Superior Cultivation True Elixirs.
The Li Family, Liu Clan, and Li Family each secured a pill.
Of course, Elder Yu also acquired one; this pill was originally for the Zhang Family but was traded to Elder Bai in an exchange with the Zhang Family.
Had it not been for Elder Bail s intervention, Elder Yu might indeed have missed out on the Cultivation True Elixir.
However, the Zhang Family didn’t come out at too much of a loss; even though they did not obtain the Cultivation True Elixir, they received some other compensation.
The last remaining pill went to the hands of the Fang Market.
Although Lin Jing rarely left his home during this time, he wasn’t completely insulated from the outside world and kept well-informed of external news.
For instance, soon after Elder Master Li successfully concocted the Cultivation True Elixirs, the price of top-quality Restorative Elixirs and Wound Healing Elixirs began to rise on the market.
And…
There were also rumors of someone willing to pay a high price for Pure Restorative Pills and Pure Body Restoration Pills.
After giving it some thought, Lin Jing understood what was happening.
Surely it was those families purchasing these Pure Elixir Medicines to prepare their members for advancing to the Golden Core Stage.
Even Elder Yu was now in seclusion, waiting only to adjust himself to the best condition before he prepared to undertake Tribulation to advance to the Golden Core Stage.
Naturally, Lin Jing wouldn’t miss this opportunity; after completing his technique switch, he began to concoct these two types of elixirs.
Unfortunately, his luck didn’t seem great, as he had only managed to produce three Pure Elixir Medicines after all his efforts so far.
rlhvvo Restorative Elixirs for quickly recovering Spiritual Power, and one Wound Healing Elixir for rapid injury recovery.
These elixirs were extremely useful during Tribulation.
However, he hadn’t made many during this time.
He would definitely prioritize preparing them for Elder Yu, and if Elder Yu didn’t need them, he would then consider selling them.
That day…
Inside the System Space, Lin Jing sat cross-legged, channeling the Immortal Path Five Elements Technique at full strength, preparing for his breakthrough to the eighth layer of Qi Refinement.
Some time had passed since his last breakthrough, and after accumulating enough, he had reached the point where it was time to advance again.
Lin Jing first took out a Pure Energy Gathering Pill and swallowed it before starting to refine the elixir.
Some time passed, yet there was still no sign of a breakthrough, not even a sense of the bottleneck.
Lin Jing couldn’t help but frown, then opened his eyes.
“How is it still not enough?” Lin Jing muttered to himself.
Unexpectedly, even a single Pure Elixir was not enough to make Lin Jing break through. If it were another cultivator with better Spiritual Root aptitude, taking this Dill would probably allow them to break through directly to the
eighth level of Qi Refinement.
But not Lin Jing, who couldn’t even feel the bottleneck.
Then, Lin Jing took out the Storage Bag tied to his waist, and after some searching, he took out a Pure Jade Box from inside.
Next, Lin Jing opened the Pure Jade Box directly, and a rich fragrance of medicine once again filled the entire Alchemy Room.
As if unfazed, Lin Jing took out a Pure Energy Gathering Pill from inside and put it directly into his mouth.
Fortunately, he still had plenty of low-grade Pure Elixir Medicine on him, which was more than enough for his use.
No sooner had the pill entered his mouth than it transformed into liquid and flowed directly into Lin Jing’s belly, eventually turning into pure Spiritual Power and merging into his limbs and bones.
This massive surge of Spiritual Power was extremely enormous, instantly filling Lin Jing’s meridians to the brim, with even a surplus remaining.
Lin Jing didn’t dare to delay, he quickly closed his eyes, continued sitting in meditation, and absorbed the Spiritual Power.
After some time, the Spiritual Power inside Lin Jing surged, and he could feel the bottleneck obstructing his breakthrough, and the Spiritual Power generated by taking that Pure Energy Gathering Pill was still gathering continuously inside him…
Lin Jing operated his cultivation technique, condensing the Spiritual Power in his body, and launched an assault on that bottleneck.
“Boom”
Lin Jing could clearly feel the bottleneck shaking.
Then, Lin Jing once again gathered all his Spiritual Power and continued his assault.
“Boom”
With just that effort, it was like floodgates opening, gushing forth.
At that moment, Lin Jing felt his Divine Sense sublimate, as if the world around him became clearer, and he felt the Spiritual Power inside him grow even stronger.
At the same time, the system’s prompt sound rang out.
“Ding. ”
“System prompt: Congratulations to the host for successfully breaking through the realm, reward earned: 10 Harvest Points.”
Having succeeded in breaking through, Lin Jing opened his eyes, feeling stronger, and a faint smile could not help but emerge on his face. “System, open the host panel.”
As Lin Jing’s words fell, a system panel appeared in front of Lin Jing.
Lin Jing (25/95)
Spiritual Root: Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root (Low Grade)
Cultivation: Qi Refinement Eighth Level (0%)
Cultivation Technique: Immortal Dao Five Elements Technique, Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique (First Layer), Controlling Fire Technique (Great
Success)
Secondary Occupation: Second-Grade Alchemist (9572/10000)
He was now at the eighth level of Qi Refinement in terms of cultivation.
And the cultivation techniques he had been practicing had been replaced with the Immortal Dao Five Elements Technique, and even the Qingyuan Sword Control Technique had been replaced with the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.
Then, just as Lin Jing was about to leave the System Space, another system warning came.
“Warning! Intruder detected in the alert range, please have the host respond promptly.”
Lin Jing had previously set both his courtyard and the entrance to the courtyard as alert areas, so any little movement would trigger the system’s warning.
This time, it should be Huang Qingling coming. Besides her, there shouldn’t be anyone else.
“Exit System Space.”
Afterward, Lin Jing left the System Space directly and reappeared in the room..
