Immortal Taoist

A day went by in a flash as Meng Lin was now sorely focused on reading alchemy books and watching the process of the two girls.

De Sijie and Xi Lin had managed to create a decent amount of low grade Realm Solidifying Pills, which they had already started using to solidify their cultivations.

Xi Lan, however, was still cooped up in her room, not making any progress in her cultivation.

Meng Lin had visited her once and after seeing what the girl had been doing, encouraged her and told her to focus solely onto it.

It confused Xi Lin and De Sijie but Meng Lin didn’t bother to explain as Xi Lan said to not speak of it.

Meng Lin had also gathered enough materials to sustain all three girl for three months, including cultivation pills, food and smaller necessities.

Originally she didn’t have the money, but after careful consideration Meng Lin decided to sell one of the two demon corpse within her system inventory.

She had not sold them before because of how valuable they were, they could be used for a variety of unique weapons, pills or formations, but now she didn’t have much choice.

She headed to the sect market and sold one of them for a huge price of 13,000 spirit stones.

After browsing through the sect market she was able to buy all the necessary materials for only 6,000 spirit stones, cutting her money by almost half.

She also bought some life saving tools for herself for the Nether Cloud Domain but she couldn’t find anything close to a teleportation talisman, something very valuable when escaping.

Finally she ended with buying materials for a pill as she was going to create a pill for the first time today.

At the moment Meng Lin was seated in her blacksmith room and before her was the Alchemy Panel.

A small alchemy furnace was standing before her with the same voidless feeling as the blacksmith couldron.

She had also noticed the similarities between the Alchemy and the Blacksmith panel.

[Alchemy(beginning) 64%]

Pill slot: none

Ingredients: none

Chance of success: none

Meng Lin sighed, feeling a little pity at her lack of progress.

It seems that activly using the panel is what leads to the crazy amount of experience gained from the system.

"Now what should I pick," she muttered to herself, scrolling through the list of available pills on the panel.

She wasn’t going to be spending much time on alchemy, as her main purpose in using the system panel was for a different purpose.

Scrolling through the list she decided to start with the Realm Solidifying Pill, since De Sijie and Xi Lin had already had success with it.

It was this pill that was the most familiar to her so she decided to try it out. She gathered the necessary ingredients and looked at her chance of success.

[Alchemy(beginning) 64%]

Pill slot: Realm Solidifying Pill

Ingredients: beasts blood resinx1, starlight grassx1, golden sunflowerx1, ghost mushroomsx2

Chance of success: 80%

Meng Lin felt a surge of excitement as she saw the high chance of success.

She hadn’t wasted a single day, the success rate was so high, it seems that she really should watch the whole process of creating the pill.

Containing her excitement Meng Lin carefully followed the steps outlined in the alchemy books and the ones she saw as she carefully put the ingredients into the alchemy furnace.

After pressing start she concentrated on her spiritual consciousness to carefully monitor the inside of the furnace as a small timer appeared before her.

1:49 seconds left.

Meng Lin watched as the ingredients began to heat up and mix together, her heart calming with ease.

As the timer reached its end, the furnace glowed brighter and a small pill appeared floating above the furnace.

Meng Lin quickly grabbed the pill with her hand as she didn’t care for the heat, she examined it carefully.

It was a small, white pill with a faint glow, just like the ones that De Sijie and Xi Lin had made.

[Congratulations for successfully creating your first pill]

[You have received a reward for creating your first pill]

[you have received taoist gacha wheel ticket]

[you have received the items:, beasts blood resinx3, starlight grassx3, golden sunflowerx3, ghost mushroomsx5

[You have gained experience for creating a spiritual pill]

[Do you wish to accept the rewards]

Meng Lin smiled slightly as she saw the taoist gacha wheel ticket, the reason she even tried to create a pill was to see if she could get a gacha ticket.

Now with the ticket in hand she didn’t waste time as she went straight towards the Gacha Wheel.

Dragon tiger sword

Soul wondering pills x5

Lv.1 Alchemist furnace

Cultivation suppression talisman lv.5

>Intermediate Grade Rootless Fire x5

[system meridian]

Intermediate system pack

Superior Booze gift bag

Holy Brute Qi cultivation technique

Immortal jades x9

“Hmm” Meng Lin pondered her choices, her eyes lingering on the Intermediate Grade Rootless Fire x5.

She had heard about the Rootless Fire before, it was a rare and highly sought-after flame among alchemists.

It is said to have the power to refine most materials, no matter how impure, into a pure and perfect state.

If the grade of the flame is higher then it can even refine spiritual objects and artifacts, making them stronger and more valuable.

If she had it then she would be making fortune, especially because it’s of the intermediate grade, a step above the low tier grades that alchemists would want.

She never thought she would have the chance to obtain it from the Taoist Gacha Wheel.

However she hoped to not obtain it on this spin as her focus was rather on the intermediate system pack, since she couldn’t get it on the last spin she hoped that this one would be enough.

After a moment of hesitation, she decided to spin the wheel.

The wheel spun around rapidly, and Meng Lin watched with ease as it slowed down.

It finally came to a stop on the expectant system pack as the item appeared before her face.

[Intermediate system pack]

[Do you wish to open the package]

Meng Lin let out a small smile of excitement as she saw the Intermediate system pack.

‘Yes’ as Meng Lin said this the package glowed bright before shattering to show the contents in it.

[You have recived 980 system coins, 460 spirit stones, Realm Breaking Crystal, Intermediate Grade Storage Ringx2, 15 beast forage]

Meng Lin couldn’t help but let out a small gasp of surprise as she saw the contents of the system pack.

She had nothing to say about the 980 system coins and 460 spirit stones.

It was the Intermediate Grade Storage Rings that she was suprised about, right now she only has storage bags and she was already content with that, she hadn’t even seen a low grade storage ring.

But now, to have not just one but two Intermediate Grade Storage Rings was a huge surprise.

Meng Lin carefully examined the rings, marveling at their size and durability, their insides were three times larger than her storage bag and she already knows that her storage bag was not a common one.

She could already imagine storing all of her equipment and treasures in them, she knew they would be helpful.

The Realm Breaking Crystal was what she didn’t know anything about, she had knowledge but she didn’t recognize it.

Holding the crystal globe in her hand she began to see it’s description.

[Realm Braking Crystal]
A Realm defying construct that can break through the barriers between different realms and allow transportation between them. Highly sought after by powerful cultivators and organizations, it is rare and extremely valuable.

Meng Lin’s eyes widened in astonishment. She had memory of something similar, but she never thought she would come across one this soon. This was a game changer for her cultivation journey.

With these two Intermediate Grade Storage Rings and the Realm Breaking Crystal, Meng Lin’s confidence in her future prospects soared.

Excitement coursed through her veins as she planned out her next moves. She immediately stored the Realm Breaking Crystal in her inventory.

She was determined to become one with the stars, strongest in the cultivation worlds, and with these newfound resources, she has taken another step.

The 15 beast forage was also a welcome addition, as she had already ran out of the food, Purple was becoming increasingly aggressive because of that.

Feeling grateful and inspired, she decided to continue with her original intentions, buying that sword technique from the system.
