"It’s true!" Elder Li said. He was willing to swear on his life that all of this was true!
Wan Er was stunned. Could it be that Elder Li wasn’t lying? Could it be that this young man is truly a fourth-tier Alchemy Master? A seventeen-year-old fourth-tier Alchemy Master... how heaven-defying! This guy is an unparalleled genius.
"Young Alliance Leader, the Alchemy Alliance is saved!" Elder Li said excitedly. "As long as Young Master Lin intervenes, he will surely turn the tide and rescue our Alchemy Alliance. The Fire Dragon Sect has already agreed to help. If we add Lin Xuan, we’ll have two fourth-tier Alchemy Masters assisting us. Then, our chances of winning will be even greater."
Thinking of this, Wan Er was incredibly excited. She had to et Lin Xuan in person.
When she returned to the hall, Wan Er first apologized for her earlier attitude. Lin Xuan smiled and waved his hand, forgiving her.
"Young Master Lin, I implore you to help our Alchemy Alliance with alchemy," Wan Er said solemnly. "Our Alliance will ensure you are well compensated."
Lin Xuan nodded. "Alright, but I have one condition."
"What condition? Please, feel free to state it, Young Master."
"I heard that your Alchemy Alliance possesses a Fire Dragon Jade. My condition is that very Fire Dragon Jade," Lin Xuan stated.
Off to the side, Chen Changsheng was deeply struck. To be honest, he thought their chances of success were slim before they arrived. After all, the Fire Dragon Jade was extrely valuable; how could the Alchemy Alliance part with it so easily? But unexpectedly, Lin Xuan had managed it so effortlessly. It was unbelievable!
Fire Dragon Jade.
Upon hearing this, Wan Er was stunned for a mont.
"What’s wrong?" Lin Xuan frowned slightly. "Are you unwilling?"
"No," Wan Er shook her head, then said, "The Fire Dragon Sect also just ca to an agreent with us, and their condition was also for the Fire Dragon Jade."
What, the Fire Dragon Sect wants it too? Lin Xuan’s expression changed. Could it be that the Fire Dragon Sect is also searching for the Fire Dragon Pearl? It seems he has another rival.
The atmosphere in the main hall instantly grew tense. Everyone fell silent, their eyes fixed on Wan Er.
"Young Master, could you perhaps change your condition?" Wan Er asked.
Lin Xuan shook his head. "I only want the Fire Dragon Jade."
This makes things difficult, Wan Er’s expression grew troubled. The Fire Dragon Sect also only wanted the Fire Dragon Jade. Both parties wanted the sa thing. This ant she could only choose one of them. It seems that trying to recruit two fourth-tier Alchemy Masters is impossible. She could only choose one between the Fire Dragon Sect and Lin Xuan.
Actually, the choice isn’t that difficult. Their skill levels should be the sa; both can only refine early-fourth-tier elixirs. However, Master Situ of the Fire Dragon Sect is far more seasoned, so his success rate should be higher. Although Lin Xuan is a genius, he’s simply too young. Even if he can refine early-fourth-tier elixirs, his success rate probably isn’t very high.
With this, Fairy Wan Er made her decision. She would choose the Fire Dragon Sect and give up on Lin Xuan.
Fairy Wan Er looked at Lin Xuan and asked, "Young Master Lin, are you really unwilling to change your condition?"
Lin Xuan shook his head.
Fairy Wan Er sighed and said helplessly, "In that case, Young Master, my apologies. I’m afraid we cannot cooperate."
Beside them, Elder Li sighed deeply, and Chen Changsheng fell into despair. Is the Fire Dragon Jade that was almost in their grasp about to slip away? Damn it, why did the Fire Dragon Sect have to want the Fire Dragon Jade too? It seed they would be returning empty-handed after all. What a pity.
Lin Xuan also frowned slightly. He asked, "Can you give a reason?"
Fairy Wan Er nodded. Lin Xuan’s demonstrated talent is imnse, and his future achievents are limitless. Although I’m refusing him, I don’t want to offend him. She carefully explained, "The Fire Dragon Sect’s fourth-tier Alchemy Master is nad Master Situ. Both of you are at the early-fourth-tier alchemy level, but Master Situ has been a fourth-tier Alchemy Master for decades. His experience is far more seasoned. Therefore, his success rate in refining early-fourth-tier elixirs will be higher. The upcoming alchemy concerns the future and fate of our Heavenly Sun Alchemy Alliance, so we cannot afford any mistakes."
At this point, Fairy Wan Er’s aning was already obvious. Given that their skill levels were the sa, she trusted Master Situ’s experience more. After all, Lin Xuan was too young and likely lacked experience.
Lin Xuan nodded after hearing her explanation. "Your thinking isn’t wrong," he said. "When skill levels are the sa, more experience does indeed lead to a higher chance of success."
"But what if our skill levels aren’t the sa?"
"What do you an?" Wan Er was stunned.
Master Li was stunned.
Chen Changsheng was also stunned. Could there be a turning point?
Lin Xuan smiled. "I’m not just capable of refining early-fourth-tier elixirs. I can also refine mid-fourth-tier elixirs. To put it bluntly, my skill level is far superior to that of Master Situ."
When he said this, everyone was stunned.
Lin Xuan could refine mid-fourth-tier elixirs.
Is that even possible? Fairy Wan Er couldn’t believe it. Master Li didn’t believe it either.
Although the difference between early-tier and mid-tier might seem like a small sub-realm, these were fourth-tier elixirs. The actual gap was vast.
The fourth-tier Alchemy Masters of their Alchemy Alliance, as well as those from the Fire Dragon Sect, could only refine early-fourth-tier elixirs. It wasn’t just them; most fourth-tier Alchemy Masters on the entirety of Dragon Island were at this level. Only a very small number could refine mid-fourth-tier elixirs.
Now, Lin Xuan was claiming he could refine mid-fourth-tier elixirs. Didn’t that an his strength surpassed that of those masters?
This is unbelievable. Is he really capable of this at such a young age? Becoming a fourth-tier Alchemy Master was already a heaven-defying feat. Could he truly stand above everyone else? Fairy Wan Er found it highly improbable.
Lin Xuan smiled. "Fairy, take a look at this."
With that, he opened his palm. A cluster of blue fla materialized in its center. Imdiately, a terrifying aura of fla perated the surroundings, and the temperature in the entire hall rose sharply.
Fairy Wan Er’s body trembled. She was stunned at first, then, as if realizing sothing, her gaze locked onto the blue fla. Her eyes widened more and more, until she finally exclaid, "This is an Anomalous Fire!"
"What?" Beside her, Master Li jumped to his feet.
Anomalous Fire? Is that for real? Lin Xuan actually has an Anomalous Fire! Heavens, this is too unbelievable! But soon, he frowned. That’s impossible. Anomalous Fire is the stuff of legends! Every single one is renowned and unique! How could he possibly possess sothing so precious?
He said, "Young Alliance Leader, are you sure you didn’t sense it incorrectly? Anomalous Fire is legendary!"
"I am not mistaken. This is an Anomalous Fire," Wan Er said firmly. As she spoke, she also released her own fla. Her fla was a supre Spiritual Fire, renowned enough to be on the Spirit Fire Chart. Yet at this mont, her Spiritual Fire was trembling, like a courtier eting their king and wanting to kneel in fealty.
When Elder Li witnessed this scene, his eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. Even a supre Spiritual Fire is trembling. The fla in Lin Xuan’s hand must truly be an Anomalous Fire. This is too incredible.
Earlier, when Lin Xuan was performing alchemy, Master Li had felt that his fla was incredibly terrifying, making his heart pound. But he hadn’t thought much of it, assuming the young man simply possessed a top-tier Spiritual Fire. He never expected it to be an Anomalous Fire.
It was said that not even an Alchemy King possessed such a legendary thing. For a seventeen-year-old to have one was truly a heaven-defying existence.
Beside them, Chen Changsheng’s eyes were wide as saucers. Oh my heavens, Lin Xuan has an Anomalous Fire! This kid is too incredible! His innate talent is top-tier, he owns a treasure like the Divine Sword, and now he even has an Anomalous Fire! Just how many amazing things does this kid possess? Chen Changsheng was shocked, envious, excited, and frenzied all at once.
Lin Xuan held the Anomalous Fire with a calm expression. He smiled and asked, "Now, do you believe , Fairy?"
Fairy Wan Er swallowed and nodded heavily. Lin Xuan’s success in refining the Spirit Transformation Pill already proved he was a fourth-tier Alchemy Master. With the addition of his Anomalous Fire, his alchemy skills would definitely surpass others by a large margin. She now believed that he could refine mid-fourth-tier elixirs.
"Young Master, rest assured. I know how to choose now. I will cooperate with you," she said. "As long as you help our Alchemy Alliance overco this crisis, I will give you the Fire Dragon Jade in our possession once everything is settled."
"Excellent." Lin Xuan retracted the Anomalous Fire, satisfied.
"Elder Li, please entertain Young Master Lin well," Fairy Wan Er said. "I’m going to find Huo Yuner. She shouldn’t have gotten far. I will go and call off our agreent."
With that, Fairy Wan Er turned and left.
「On the other side.」
Huo Yuner was in a particularly good mood. She had just reached a cooperative agreent with Fairy Wan Er. The Fire Dragon Sect’s fourth-tier Alchemy Master would help the Heavenly Sun Alchemy Alliance with their alchemy. In return, the Heavenly Sun Alchemy Alliance would give the Fire Dragon Jade to the Fire Dragon Sect.
The Fire Dragon Jade is rumored to be related to the Fire Dragon Pearl. Obtaining the Jade could lead to finding the Pearl. The Fire Dragon Pearl not only possesses powerful Dragon Dao Power but also formidable Fla Power. And our Fire Dragon Sect cultivates the Fire Elent of Dragon Dao Power, making the Fire Dragon Pearl an invaluable treasure for us. We must obtain the Fire Dragon Pearl. This is great news!
Huo Yuner prepared to return to the sect and inform Master Situ. She was sure he would be imnsely pleased. Master Situ had already promised her that if the negotiations were successful, he would give her a fourth-tier elixir.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuner grew incredibly excited. With a fourth-tier elixir, I’ll be able to raise my cultivation level.
Just as she was thinking this, a voice suddenly called out from behind, "Miss Yun’Er, please wait a mont."
Huo Yuner stopped and turned to see Fairy Wan Er approaching. She was slightly taken aback and asked, "Fairy Wan Er, is there sothing else? Are you coming back to the Fire Dragon Sect with to ask Master Situ for his help?"
She hadn’t expected Fairy Wan Er to be so deferential, even intending to accompany her personally to extend the invitation.
