Chapter 3575: Third Rank Pill Saint
a needle in a haystack, it was better than sitting idle in the cave dwelling.The deeper into the canyon one went, the thicker the mist became. If it weren't for the fact that he had cultivated the Hu...At this time, even Outsiders like Shen Tu Zhan Feng, Nie Tian Hou, and Bai Ru Shuang could see the huge gap between Lin Shi Qing and Lu Xiao Tian. At this time, Lu Xiao Tian had already successfully refined a furnace of Xian Dan, while Lin Shi Qing didn't know how long it would take him to finish.
And previously, Lin Shiqing's aggressive suppression in the eyes of everyone was just a joke. If it weren't for Lu Xiaitian already holding back, Lin Shiqing wouldn't have simply spat out blood that easily.
Nie Tianhou and Shen Tu Zhanfeng both looked at Lu Xia Tian with a hint of astonishment in their eyes. Before, they had somewhat neglected Lu Xia Tian when they saw Lin Shiqing, a disciple of the one-element Daoist, appear. After all, Lin Shiquan's level of alchemy was indeed not bad. Who knew that Lu Xia Tian had reached such an astonishing level and easily defeated Lin Shiquan.
If the two were evenly matched, or even if Lu Xiaitian was slightly stronger, they would definitely choose to be closer to Lin Shiquan before making a choice between them. However, things are different when there is a significant gap in strength. After all, Lin Shiquan is the disciple of a fourth-rank Dan Saint. Compared to someone who has the hope of becoming a fourth-rank Dan Saint, his weight ultimately differs by quite a lot.
“Brother, why do you bother” At this moment, Meng Chang stood anxiously on the side, rubbing his hands together. Previously, even though Lu Xiaoteng had injured Lin Shiqing with his qi during the clash, Lin Shiqing had simply retreated to adjust his breath and could naturally recover as before.
...While Lin Shicheng was incredibly stubborn, he suppressed his injuries and continued to forcefully refine the pills. This would only worsen his internal injuries. By this point, Lu Xiaoxiao had already refined Qingxuan Xian Dan, and even produced top-grade pills. Even if Lin Shicheng pushed himself despite his injuries and successfully refined a pill, the possibility of refining a top-grade Xian Dan was extremely slim.
In this situation, whether Lin Shiqing continued or not, he was already a complete loser. However, the Lin Shiqing in front of them forcibly suppressed the injury inside his body and refined the elixir. His performance of not losing to others despite the loss was highly regarded by Lu Xia Tian, but it made Meng Chang uneasy.
Forcing oneself to continue refining the elixir would only worsen the injuries within their body. Moreover, this practice of overdrawing one's internal Qi is undoubtedly a loss outweighing any potential gain.
Meng Chang deeply understood his disciple Lin Shiqing's resolute nature. Once he set his mind on something, it was nearly impossible to change his resolve. Even if Meng Chang wanted to forcefully stop him now, the outcome might be counterproductive.
"I passed the assessment, right" Lu Xia Tian asked Huo Zhengxian, who was witnessing this.
"It's passed, Daoist Dongfang's alchemy is astounding, his future prospects are limitless." Huo Xianzheng's face now held genuine smiles as he looked at Lu Xia Tian.
"Very well." After receiving the desired response, Lu Xia Tian turned and left. He didn't even look at the Dan Dou happening before him.
"Fellow Daoist from the East, aren't you going to take a look" Mu Xia asked.
"We have little in common to talk about, and the outcome has already been decided. There's nothing more to see." Lu Xia Tian shook his head, unwilling to stay with Lin Shiqing any longer. Having gained quite a bit during the alchemy process, Lu Xia Tian needed to return and solidify what he had learned.
Lin Shiqing had been paying attention to Lu Xiaoteng's side all along. Hearing Lu Xiaoteng's indifferent words, Lin Shiqing felt deeply humiliated. Suddenly, his internal Qi became unstable again. Lin Shiqing came back to his senses and hurriedly began to readjust his internal Qi, continuing to suppress the injury. But just now, in that brief moment of distraction, Lin Shiqing was greatly affected, and another mouthful of blood gushed out.
However, Lin Shicheng was also stubborn and still insisted on refining the elixir.
“Master Dongfang, do you think your actions are a bit too rigid” Meng Chang saw that Lin Shiqing’s condition was getting worse and his worry caused confusion. He also couldn't help but feel a little resentment towards Lu Xia Tian.
"If I stayed, you'd probably think I was deliberately lingering to mock Lin Shicheng. Lin Shicheng is stronger than you imagine, he managed to last until the end. If it were me who got hurt, perhaps Meng Daoist wouldn't be so resentful. Lin Shicheng has a good senior brother and a good master too. Otherwise..."
Lu Xiaotian smiled upon hearing this, his gaze sweeping across Meng Chang and Lin Shiqing. Though the latter half of his sentence remained unspoken, his meaning was crystal clear.
“Eastern Daoist friend, sell me this elixir you've refined this time.” Mu Xia smiled and looked at Lu Xiaodao.
"I can't make any trades for now. I promised Zhang Daoyou that I would have him help me brew Qingxuan Xianjiu." Lu Xia Tian shook his head and walked away with a beaming Zhang Taixu and Meng Delin.
Meng Delin naturally recognized that Lu Xiaoteng's alchemy skills had reached an astonishing level. Even being able to defeat a disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator so cleanly and efficiently, the gap between them was not ordinary. At this moment, Meng Delin was extremely confident in Lu Xiaoteng. If it wasn't for Lu Xiaoteng's relationship, Lu Xiaoteng would have never pledged allegiance to the Celestial Court. He didn't hold much respect for the vast Celestial Court. With his talent and opportunities, Lu Xiaoteng could excel both in alchemy and cultivation, reaching such heights was a miracle to Meng Delin.
Since this is the case, why not reach the realm of a fourth-rank Dan Saint in due time As for Zhang Taixu's excitement, part of it stemmed from Meng Delin, but more importantly, it came from the Qingxuan Xian Dan in Lu Xiaoteng's hands.
"Then wait until the Qingxuan Immortal Brew is prepared, and then give me a portion." Mu Xia hurriedly said.

"Good!" Lu Xia Tian nodded, and then with Zhang Tai Xu and Meng De Lin's figures disappearing from everyone's sight.
Mu Xia glanced at Lin Shiqing, who was still diligently refining pills. The man had a certain persistence, but his personality was a bit too arrogant. This guy named Dongfang didn't have a particularly powerful master, yet he showed no fear in the face of Lin Shiqing, this renowned master. He didn't make any provocative gestures towards Lin Shiqing to prove himself, despite his lower alchemy cultivation. It seemed like the other party didn't need to do so. Compared to each other, their strengths were clear.
As soon as Lu Xiaitian left, the most exciting part of the alchemy process was over. Staying here felt pointless, so Mu Xia didn't hesitate and drifted towards Lu Xiaitian's direction.
“Mú Xià...” Niétián Hóu and Shēn Tú Zhàn Fēng looked at each other, then followed Mú Xià. They had already felt Lǔ Xiǎotiān's distance, but when Mú Xià left, they didn't need to stay here either.
Lin Shicheng was almost infuriated to the point of vomiting blood. The deserted entrance and lack of visitors were a stark reminder of his current state. As a disciple of an alchemist, Lin Shicheng naturally wouldn't be easily defeated by such minor setbacks. He forced himself to calm down, continuing to meticulously follow the steps of his alchemy process.
By the end, one furnace yielded two pills: a single Dan of Returning to One Hundred Apertures and two Pills of Reversing Heaven and Earth.
