Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Exploding Furnace

Translator: 549690339

Just as Lin Jing was using the Controlling Fire Technique, several gazes swept over.

Lin Jing’s mastery of the Controlling Fire Technique had already reached perfection; his control over the flames could be described as an extension of his own limbs, incredibly skilled.

As time trickled by.

Their Alchemy gradually entered a critical phase, requiring an increasing amount of concentration, leaving them no spare energy to be concerned with anything else.

Like this, another half an hour passed, and it was now coming down to the wire with everyone’s nerves stretched taut.

Fearing even the slightest mistake.

Of course, this didn’t include Lin Jing, who still had some time before his Elixir Medicine was ready.

Nevertheless, even so, he still focused intently on his own Pill Furnace, aware that, despite his proficiency in alchemy, he couldn’t afford to be careless.

Otherwise, if he truly botched it, there would be nowhere for him to weep.

However, during this process, Lin Jing still deliberately made some small adjustments to appear more like a Second -Grade Alchemist who had just recently been promoted.

At this point, the fragrance of Elixir Medicine wafted through the area, signifying that someone had already succeeded in making it.

Before long…

The Pill Furnace opened, the fragrance of the Elixir billowing out and pervading the entire courtyard.

One of the Offering Priests had completed his concoction.

After opening the Furnace, this person took out the Elixir Medicine, a total of five pills, including one Superior Gathering Yuan Pill.

This was only his first batch, and he had already passed the examination.

By his side, Steward Cheng took the Elixir Medicine from his hand and then passed it to Zheng Steward,

Zheng Steward accepted the Elixir Medicine, inspected it briefly, then nodded his head without uttering a word and continued to watch the remaining few.

And when he looked at Lin Jing, he paused especially longer, observing him for a while.

Just then, another scent drifted from the Elixir Furnace; another Offering Priest clad in blue robes was nearing the completion of his alchemy.

At this time, inside the venue, the only ones without any commotion were Lin Jing and the Wang surnamed Pill Master.

Lin Jing had started sealing the furnace later than the others, and in the middle of the process, he deliberately slowed down his alchemy speed to hide his cultivation and level of alchemy proficiency.

At this point, Lin Jing was still some distance from completing his pill and did not have the urgency, even free to lift his head and check on the others’ progress.

The blue-robed Offering Priest was clearly at the final juncture, currently preparing for pill condensation.

The Wang surnamed Pill Master, however, was sweating profusely and looked rather flustered, presumably having encountered some mishap.

“Bang”

A loud explosion rang out, and unbelievably, someone’s Pill Furnace had exploded.

This person was none other than the Wang surnamed Pill Master.

The explosion was severe, and the whole Pill Furnace of the Wang surnamed Pill Master was shattered, even several fragments of the furnace were blasted out.

One fragment, in particular, flew directly toward Lin Jing.

Lin Jing just happened to look up, startled by the sudden turn of events.

Then he snapped to his senses and, without bothering to control the flames at the base of the furnace, immediately withdrew his Divine Sense, mobilized his Spiritual Power, and tried to stop the oncoming fragment.

But…

Just as the fragment was about to reach Lin Jing, the Steward beside him swiftly intervened, blocking the shard.

Lin Jing was just about to heave a sigh of relief when, shortly after…

“Bang”

“Bang”

Two muffled sounds in succession, and Lin Jing and the other blue-robed Offering Priest’s furnaces exploded at the same time.

“You…

The blue-robed Offering Priest turned his head, his face livid with rage, staring fixedly at the Wang surnamed Pill Master, his gaze as if he wanted to devour him.

Understandably so, for his Elixir Medicine was on the verge of success, but at this critical moment, he was disturbed and this led directly to his furnace exploding.

Anybody in his situation would likely find it unbearable.

Even Lin Jing felt the same, his eyebrows furrowed tight, yet he did not lose his composure like the Offering Priest almost did.

Although he had been conducting the alchemy slowly to conceal his skill, everything was actually under his control.

This Elixir Furnace Medicine, he was eighty percent sure that he could produce a Superior Gathering Yuan Pill.

Now disrupted and turned to ashes, to say Lin Jing wasn’t annoyed would be impossible…

At this moment, the Pill Master surnamed Wang hurriedly apologized to both the blue-robed Offering Priest and Lin Jing with a bow:

“Two fellow daoists, I truly apologize. It was my carelessness that caused this explosion of the furnace…”

“After this examination concludes, I will certainly offer some compensation to both fellow daoists to make amends for your losses in this incident…”

At that time, the blue-robed Offering Priest was in a state of extreme anger, absolutely unable to hear any of his explanations:

“What can you compensate with, can you afford it?”

“A Second-Grade Alchemist actually caused the furnace to explode?” “Ridiculous…”

“And to do so at such a critical moment, I believe you did it on purpose.” “Today, no matter what, I will teach you a lesson…”

Having said that, the Offering Priest advanced decisively towards the Pill Master surnamed Wang.

The Pill Master surnamed Wang became panicked and quickly spoke up:

“Fellow daoist, I truly did not do it intentionally, please listen to my explanation…”

However, the Offering Priest did not pay him any heed and continued walking towards him, appearing determined to discipline the Pill Master surnamed Wang before letting the matter rest.

Seeing that his attempts at defense were futile, the Pill Master surnamed Wang looked to Steward Zheng for help in desperation.

“Steward Zheng, save me.”

At this time, Steward Zheng’s face had darkened, a well-conducted examination had turned into such a mess.

“Enough…”

Steward Zheng roared loudly.

In his roar, there was the pressure of a Golden Core Cultivator’s Divine Sense.

That Offering Priest, who was initially blinded by rage, gradually had the anger in his eyes dissipate and his clarity restored after the roar.

It was then he suddenly realized, his behavior might have provoked Steward Zheng. Sensing the trouble, he hurriedly turned around and bowed to Steward Zheng:

“Steward Zheng, I was blinded by anger just now. I hope Steward Zheng can excuse my behavior…”

“What are you all doing…”

Steward Zheng spoke in a stern voice:

“We are in the middle of an examination, not a time to settle your personal grievances…”

“Yes, I understand.”

After speaking, the Offering Priest bowed to Steward Zheng and said:

“Steward Zheng, because of this person’s explosion, the Elixir Medicines we were making have been reduced to ashes.” “Please tell us, Steward Zheng, how should this matter be handled?”

This time, he included Lin Jing as well.

Having said that…

The person looked towards Steward Zheng, waiting for him to provide an answer.

Steward Zheng glanced over the three people and then spoke directly:

“Before the examination began, I had already stated that we would not set up soundproof Formations. ”

“That was to observe your temperament and your true Alchemy skills under unique circumstances.”

“You should know, in a real Alchemy competition, with dozens or hundreds of people performing Alchemy simultaneously, the situation is much more complex than this.”

“Now…”

“A single furnace explosion disrupted your Alchemy, causing you to lose focus and leading directly to the explosion.”

“It seems your composure is not strong enough…’

Following this…

Steward Zheng then announced the outcome of the incident. “The current examination stands, the examination continues..”
