I Become an Alchemist in the Great Ming

You didn't practice alchemy yourself, you exchanged it from the system?

The White Lotus sect has implanted artificial crystal devices into people's bodies to control them. It seems technology still requires archaeology! 😅

The plot is alright, but a bit messy, and it deviates from the theme of system professions. The alchemist's skills are like those of a potion master.

You call yourself an alchemist?

This isn't about the protagonist practicing alchemy at all; you might as well write it as something you buy from the shop and have the system empower you.
