Chapter 408: Empress Mystic Ice Really Made the Right Choice!
The three Pill Saints’ words attracted the agreement of more than three million people present.
Furthermore, in everyone’s opinion, a million years seemed too conservative of a guess.
With Lin Xuan’s terrifying cultivation and alchemy attainments, his glory could definitely shine on alchemy for millions of years.
Pill refinement was a very profound skill.
Just like cultivating the martial arts, refining pills also required outstanding talent.
!!
Other than talent, the external factors affecting pill refinement compared to cultivating the martial arts were also rather huge.
Furnace cauldrons, herbs, spiritual energy, cultivation techniques, and even geographical climate were all complicated and varied.
These were all things that alchemists needed to overcome and master.
Cultivating alchemy often required greater effort than cultivating martial arts, longer time, and had a high chance of failure.
For example, the North and South Pill Kings had cultivated alchemy for more than 30,000 years and were famous for ten thousand years. It wasn’t easy for them to stabilize half of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
However, they had used all sorts of abilities today but were unable to refine the Green Phoenix Pill.
On the other hand, the moment Lin Xuan attacked, he was calm and composed. He easily refined a Green Phoenix Pill.
This comparison showed how terrifying his talent was.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the alchemy world would be impressed by his boundless glory for millions of years!
Then, everyone bowed to Lin Xuan.
“Greetings, Pill Saint!”
Zhao Youzhi, Hu Xiao, and Ke Shengbo, the three former Pill Saints, were even more respectful than others.
Although they were seniors, talent was respected in the alchemy world.
They felt that their talent was far inferior to Lin Xuan’s, so they tried their best to be respectful.
Lin Xuan glanced at everyone with a faint smile and raised his hand to put away the Green Phoenix Pill.
The main effect of this medicinal pill was to help one break through the bottleneck and reach a higher level.
To Lin Xuan, it wasn’t very useful, but he could keep it for his daughters to use in the future.
Next, Zhao Youzhi and the other two Pill Saints took the lead to hold a grand coronation ceremony for Lin Xuan.
After burning incense, chanting, and other procedures, Lin Xuan became the undisputed leader of the new generation in the eyes of the world’s alchemists.
After the coronation ceremony ended, it was time for the pill exchange and everyone to exchange pointers.
However, before this segment could begin, the atmosphere in the venue became anxious again.
Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi stood in the center of the field. Their eyes met with killing intent.
Ren Ruoyu said coldly, “Our fathers are seriously injured and can’t continue the compet.i.tion. Then let’s decide the winner!”
Baili Xi didn’t hesitate. “Sure!”
Ren Xiaoyao and Baili Zongde were silent when they saw this. It seemed like they tacitly agreed to their compet.i.tion.
Although Lin Xuan had already been crowned as the new Pill Saint,
the victor hadn’t been decided yet.
Coupled with the rivalry between Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi, they couldn’t let it go.
Therefore, logically speaking, this compet.i.tion had to continue until the outcome was decided.
Ren Ruoyu then said, “Since we want to compete, let’s be more thorough this time. Not only will we compete in pill refinement, but we will also compete in martial arts. Do you dare to compete?”
Baili Xi’s eyes revealed a ferocious look. “You just got lucky when you injured me just now. Do you think you’ll be so lucky every time?”
“This time, I will let you know that you’re not worthy of competing with me for Yanyue’s Holy Maiden!”
Ren Ruoyu sneered. “Then I’ll let you know that you’re not even worthy of mentioning her name!”
When everyone present heard their words, they couldn’t help but shake their heads.
Even Ren Xiaoyao and Baili Zongde shook their heads and sighed.
Originally, these two people competing under the banner of their respective sects was grand and epic.
Even if it was for Yanyue’s Holy Maiden, they couldn’t say it.
However, the moment they mentioned Yanyue’s Holy Maiden, they immediately seemed petty.
Wen Junyao couldn’t help but look at Lin Xuan.
His expression was calm.
His calm and composed bearing was really filled with the bearing of a superior.
“The Consort’s gaze can make people understand the grand scheme of things.”
“Compared to him, these two junior sect masters are really too insignificant!”
Just as everyone was sighing, a clear and pleasant voice sounded.
“You are responsible for the sect’s rise and fall. In front of everyone, you disregarded the overall situation and instead, for the sake of love, you fought in public.”
“How is such bearing different from that of a boor?”
A bright and holy moonlight lit up the entire venue.
In the dazzling light, a beautiful girl in a white dress landed.
The moment everyone saw her, they held their breath.
What a beautiful woman!
How holy!
Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi trembled. “Yanyue’s Holy Maiden!”
An Qingming landed on the ground, her clothes and hair fluttering.
When she saw Lin Xuan, she couldn’t help but be stunned.
There was actually such a handsome man in the world!
She immediately walked forward quickly and went straight to Lin Xuan without even looking at Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi.
“Greetings, Consort!”
She had just heard that Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi had publicly announced that they would fight over her at the Pill Saint a.s.sembly, so she hurriedly rushed over to resolve this boring battle.
Unexpectedly, she actually saw Lin Xuan present.
With her intelligence and knowledge, she could immediately guess Lin Xuan’s ident.i.ty, so she hurriedly bowed.
Lin Xuan nodded slightly in return.
An Qingming felt extreme admiration and awe.
In her opinion, even if Lin Xuan didn’t say a word, he could keep everyone calm with his bearing. This was what an outstanding man should be like!
“Holy Maiden…”
Ren Ruoyu quickly walked forward with a fawning expression.
He and Baili Xi had been reprimanded by Yanyue’s Holy Maiden
just now and were very ashamed, so they wanted to go forward and salvage their image.
An Qingming turned around and said coldly,
“There’s no need to say anything else. I can never be in cahoots with people like you.”
He saw her turn her beautiful face to the side and not look at him again.
Ren Ruoyu and Baili Xi revealed deep shame.
The two of them looked at Lin Xuan enviously.
It wasn’t that they hadn’t noticed the admiration in Yanyue’s Holy Maiden’s words and expression towards Lin Xuan just now.
“In the entire world, only the Consort can make the Holy Maiden take the initiative to express goodwill.”
“Sigh! If we had a tenth of the Consort’s elegance, we wouldn’t have been looked down on by the Holy Maiden!”
Under everyone’s gazes, the two of them were reprimanded by Yanyue’s Holy Maiden and were too ashamed to stay any longer.
Gritting their teeth, they could only leave with their injured fathers and sect members.
After they left, An Qingming went forward and bowed to Lin Xuan.
“Consort, 80 million kilometers east of Green Phoenix Mountain is where our Holy Land is. Please come to the Holy Land!”
“Moreover, Pavilion Master w.a.n.g is meeting the Holy Lord in the Holy Land. He even mentioned you just now. He seems to want to see you again!”
Lin Xuan nodded casually. “Alright.”
Yanyue Holy Land was on the way back to North Mystic Heaven, and w.a.n.g Kaijing was very polite to him.
Lin Xuan felt that it was okay to bring the little girls along.
Xuan Xi looked at the flickering moonlight behind An Qingming in shock and asked, “Auntie, does everyone in the Holy Land have moonlight on them?”
An Qingming smiled. “Other than me, the Holy Lord and the Holy Son also has it.”
“It feels so interesting. Let’s go take a look quickly!”
When the little girls heard that, they immediately pulled Lin Xuan away.
An Qingming couldn’t help but praise Lin Xuan when she saw him setting off with Xuan Zhu and the others with a doting expression.
So the Consort doted on his daughters so much. Empress Mystic Ice had really chosen the right person!
