第五卷 天云十二州 第一千二百九十四章 最后一件聘礼

Though coincidences do not come without reason, it is impossible for there to be so many coincidences in the world. The Alluring Great玄丹 was created by a senior妖族 from ancient times.

This elixir was used to combat heart demons and had extremely significant effects.

However, since it did not increase one's power, it was considered quite obscure among elixirs. Even among human cultivators, few heard of it, let alone the妖族.

Master Lion Heaven refused to believe that his opponent could also produce such an elixir.

Apart from the Alluring Great玄丹, no other spirit materials were known to suppress heart demons during breakthroughs. Otherwise, Fairy Five Colors would have already advanced to the middle stage of Separation and Union.

With a mental shift, Master Lion Heaven regained his calm composure but still harbored some doubts about what his opponent meant by "setbacks."

He had no clear idea.

A hint of gloom flashed in the old monster's eyes as he decided to wait and see before making any judgments.

On the main platform, all eyes turned towards Fairy Five Colors. After a brief hesitation, she extended her hand lightly, and a beam of light passed through, revealing an elegant jade plate on the table in front of her.

The plate held several exquisite jade bottles, each containing special materials for the Alluring Great玄丹.

"Thank you, Sister."

Lin Xuan nodded to Fairy Five Colors before turning to the senior cultivator. "Senior, I need to use the alchemy room and will present my third gift afterward."

"You are truly confident?"

Fairy Five Colors looked surprised as she asked.

"This is natural; do you think I would make such a joke?" Lin Xuan smiled. "In fact, there's one more request. If Senior can meet it, I'll have even greater confidence."

"What is your request?"

"I've never heard of the Alluring Great玄丹 before and have never tried to produce it. Could you possibly provide some waste elixirs for me to study? If you agree, I will greatly appreciate it," Lin Xuan said with a serious expression.

Everyone was stunned by his words. Fairy Five Colors and Lady Phoenix both frowned slightly, worrying about Lin Xuan's rashness.

The Lion King and his son were delighted at the prospect of seeing Lin Xuan fail. Master Lion Heaven sneered; perhaps this young man was skilled in alchemy but was too arrogant to think that studying waste elixirs would help him produce the Alluring Great玄丹.

He must be punished severely for his overconfidence.

Fairy Five Colors also looked displeased. "Friend Daoist, the Alluring Great玄丹 is different from other spirit medicines; its success rate is very low."

"Still, I have a clear idea of what to do. If you provide me with several waste elixirs for research, will that be too much to ask?" Lin Xuan remained unperturbed.

"Very well!"

Seeing Lin Xuan's determination, Fairy Five Colors sighed and sent the jade plate containing three blackened pills toward him. These were the three waste Alluring Great玄丹 she had produced over a hundred years.

Fairy Five Colors sighed; producing this elixir was no easy feat. Each ingredient was extremely rare and hard to value in terms of crystal stones.

"Thank you, Fairy," Lin Xuan's eyes gleamed before he returned to his calm demeanor.

"Fairy, there is no need for gratitude. I will take you to the alchemy room; perhaps we can witness your incredible skills." Fairy Five Colors spoke politely despite her own confidence in Lin Xuan’s abilities.

"If I may say so, Fairy, it would be best not to have too high hopes. Young Lin might overestimate his abilities and end up with a ruptured belly," Master Lion Heaven said coldly.

"Whether he succeeds or fails can only be determined after the elixir is produced. I hope you keep your word; otherwise, as a Separation and Union cultivator, speaking like that would be beneath you." Lin Xuan spoke sharply now that their faces were bare.

"Indeed," Master Lion Heaven growled.

As host, Fairy Five Colors intervened to ease the tension between them. If they fought here, it would not benefit her.

With her intervention, the atmosphere in the hall calmed down. The Lion King and his son also followed, as this battle's outcome mattered to them too.

Lin Xuan led the way with a swift light, and soon they reached the peak of the mountain.

Facing them was a series of pavilions and terraces, surrounded by beautiful scenery.

"Friendly Daoist, that is where you will alchemize. Please use it as needed. I wonder how long it might take?" Fairy Five Colors asked as she pointed to the buildings.

"It's hard to say; it could be one day or three days. Do any of you wish to wait here?"

"Of course, we want to see this young man humiliated," Master Lion Heaven said with a grim expression.

"Indeed, but I'm afraid that will disappoint you."

After saying this, Lin Xuan gave Lady Phoenix and Fairy Five Colors reassuring glances before flying toward the magnificent buildings.

Inside, he immediately set up several colorful array flags around him. He was not willing to have anyone witness his work.

Once the arrays were ready, Lin Xuan closed his eyes and scanned the surroundings with his divine sense. Satisfied, he began to examine his environment.

He found himself in a large circular hall, about ten meters in diameter, where a copper monster's head was positioned at the center, its mouth wide open, ready to release underground fire.
