My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!

Chapter 240 240: Alchemy Practice

As Rezen reads, Ivy automatically translated the book's content so that he could understand the information it contains

Considering that the Metal Sword Tribe is more or less at the same level as the Waterside Tribe, how come that not only one but two people from them might have actually been reading this book?

"Aside from this book, where did Titane get that jade he swallowed? Even Ivy doesn't know what that jade was! This situation... I think there is more to it than meets the eye!"

Rezen can't help but shudder as he felt like something dark was brewing without him knowing

As someone that hasn't even reached the Junior Rank yet, Rezen is very vulnerable. He has to advance as soon as possible!

"I want to use alchemy on the funny-face ginger to make it more effective but it seems like I don't have enough time. Before winter officially arrives, if I amassed enough resources to cleanse my body until I could become a Junior Mage, I'll consume the funny-face ginger raw"

"On the other hand, if I don't gather enough resources when winter arrives then I would take my time. I just regained my magic, I didn't have time to practice even the most basic of alchemy. I should practice first to turn the Spirit Plants that would cleanse my body into elixirs or pills"

"At the very least, I should have attained an 'absorption talent' of 95% since the cleaner a mage's body when advancing, the stronger they would be!"

For now, most of the knowledge in the book was too high-level for someone like Rezen. Aside from the method, spell model, and key points when trying to advance into the Junior Rank, the rest were unusable for the current Rezen before he advances

As such, he decided that in daylight, he would study and practice alchemy while at night, he would search for Spirit Plants in the forest, especially those that could cleanse his body

It was fortunate that Spirit Plants that cleanse one's body are more common here compared to the earth realm

Considering that a mage has to have a clean body to advance, the 'universe' might have balanced things to make such Spirit Plants not too rare

It was only a matter of time before Rezen could gather enough resources especially since he also has the aid of the Waterside Tribe

"Ivy, the basics of alchemy" Rezen said and Ivy obliged

In Rezen's vision, a virtual book suddenly appeared. This was something that only he could see and he started to study the mysteries of alchemy

This was different from merely grinding or mixing Spirit Plants to create medicines. Even the basics were hard to execute!

——

In the Waterside Tribe, Rezen could be seen standing on the potato farm. The skin under his eyes has become darker than usual

It has been a few days since the annihilation of the Metal Sword Tribe and in these few days, Rezen is very busy

He made arrangements for the tribe to enter an agreement with the other tribes to exchange food for Resonance Gems

Fortunately or not, the Windy, Earth Wrath, Nature Lover Tribe suffered the loss of their Junior Mages. With fewer Junior Mages, the fewer magic beasts that they could hunt, resulting in a lesser amount of food

In the end, these tribes even including the Fire Force Tribe exchanged Resonance Gems with the Waterside Tribe in exchange for the potatoes that they boiled or roasted

As for the specifics, Rezen let the Chief negotiate as he has many things to do

From morning to afternoon, Rezen either teaches magic to the tribesmen, practices his alchemy, or uses his mana to grow potatoes. With more types of Resonance Gems that became available to them, the corresponding magical knowledge must be taught in order for them to be able to use these gems

If not, the Resonance Gems would be nothing but decorations

Rezen is busy from morning to afternoon and nighttime was no different as he would sneak out to search for Spirit Plants

As a result, Rezen has become less energetic due to the lack of sleep and rest. It was like he turned into a zombie

Rezen was sleepily controlling threads of mana to be 'fed' to the potatoes when he scrunched his nose due to the nasty scent that his nose picked up

The scent was so foul that it removed Rezen's sleepiness and he turned to look at the source of that scent

What he saw was Stone Head holding what looks like a literal piece of shit in his hand

The nasty scent was coming from that black substance and the nearby tribesmen stared at Stone Head before retreating

It can't be helped, the scent was just too strong and bad! They can't take it!

"Rezen! Look, what I found! This is the root of the Grave Tree! It is effective in cleansing one's body! With this, you'll be one step closer to the Junior Rank! Hehehe!"

Stone Head still wasn't fully healed. In fact, several areas of his body were still covered with beast skin to hold the medicinal paste.

He should still be resting right now but this man has a strong sense to serve the tribe, possibly because of the guilt from killing one of the tribe's Junior Mages

Even though he hasn't fully recovered yet, it seems like Stone Head already went out to hunt and discovered a Grave Tree. It could be treated as both a magic beast and Spirit Plant

A specific part of this tree's root looks like a turd and smells nasty but is actually a treasure of heaven and earth that is effective to cleanse one's body!

"I told him that he should rest and not go out yet but he really didn't listen. But even though his fortune aura has thinned because of his breakthrough to the 2nd cycle, the chances of him dying should be relatively low. At the very least, it should be no problem for him to reach the 3rd cycle"

"Indeed, Ivy was right. Stone Head is a heavens' blessed but his fortune aura is not much, it could only support him until the 3rd cycle. In this area, a mage at that level could dominate it"

"With the power of a 3rd cycle mage, Stone Head alone could feed all of his tribesmen"

? "And since he is a heavens' blessed, he even found a rare treasure. It's just that why does it have to be the root of a Grave Tree? I believe that the scent alone could kill. Not to mention, its appearance... even I am a bit unwilling to consume it"

Thoughts swirled inside Rezen's head but he still managed to smile though his lips were quivering a bit. The closer Stone Head was to him, the more powerful the bad smell becomes

"Thank you, Stone Head but I'm actually quite busy these days. Could you store the tur— I mean the root for me in the meantime? I'll ask for it when I decided to consume it!" Rezen said and in fear that Stone Head would hand the turd to him he fled and entered his hut

"Sigh... that was close. I don't want to store that thing in my hut, I might die from suffocation!" Rezen said with a sigh but he only spends a moment to recover

He is a busy man and now, Rezen decided to practice alchemy again!

He sat on a chair that was placed in front of his table after gathering the necessary materials

Since Rezen was attempting to create basic alchemical products, although high-quality equipment would be helpful, even his crude equipment would still suffice

"Vismian Grass..." Rezen muttered, his lips pursing

One of the ingredients necessary to use was the vismian grass, the first ever Spirit Plant he planted in the past

Of course, there is a difference between this Vismian Grass and the ones back on earth

This one contains more mana and is useful to Junior Mages

"Vismian Grass, Water, Wood Dust, Rime Leaf..." Rezen made sure that none of his ingredients were missing and only after that did he start another session of alchemical training

He first poured water on the pot before sprinkling some Wood Dust on it, followed by the Rime Leaf

These things were the supplementary ingredients for one of the most basic alchemical elixirs; mana potion!

Just like its name, mana potion has the ability to boost a mage's mana recovery. There are many varieties of this potion

There are those that would recover mana in one huge burst but there is also a version that recovers mana slower in exchange for more mana that would be recovered

As for Rezen, he chose to create and practice the mana potion that would recover mana in one huge burst. If he were to succeed, the potion could be a lifesaver if danger comes since a mage doesn't have an unlimited supply of mana
