Originally, Bai Yiluo just wanted Ling Xiao to back off and not act cool.
However, Ling Xiao followed her words and said, "Since Sect Leader Bai is interested, then I'll show off my skills so that others won't think I'm a swindler!"
Bai Yiluo didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so arrogant. She thought to herself, "Could he really be a divine alchemist?
That's impossible! "
Liu Fangyi also wanted to know if Ling Xiao was a real alchemist, so she said, "Sect Leader, since Divine Master Ling is so interested, why don't we trouble him to refine some divine pills for us? In any case, just relying on Elder Jiang and Elder Gong isn't enough. Moreover, Elder Gong hasn't returned for many years, so a portion of our divine pills have to be bought from outside."
Liu Fangyi's words were undoubtedly giving Bai Yiluo a way out and helping Ling Xiao along the way.
However, what Liu Fangyi said was the truth. Their Lotus Order had two Divine Alchemists. One was nurtured by their own Order, and the other was a Consecrator. However, the Consecrator's whereabouts were unknown, and he had not returned for many years.
A divine alchemist was in charge of all the divine pills of a sect, so there was no doubt that the supply couldn't meet the demand.
"Alright, it just so happens that my sect is lacking a batch of divine pills, so we'll have to trouble Divine Master Ling. After this is done, we won't mistreat Divine Master Ling!" Bai Yiluo replied.
"Alright, as long as you have enough materials, I'll help you refine pills for a month. Moreover … it'll be a public pill refinement that can be seen by everyone in your sect, lest Sect Leader Bai doesn't believe me!" Ling Xiao revealed an arrogant expression as he spoke.
This was a completely arrogant and complacent appearance that made people feel very uncomfortable.
However, Ling Xiao had no choice but to use this method.
He believed that as long as he refined the divine pills and caused a heavenly phenomenon, he would be able to attract the attention of everyone in the Lotus Sect.
Perhaps this could lure Meng Ran out.
At that time, everything would be revealed.
Xiao Zhencai could guess Ling Xiao's intentions. She looked at Ling Xiao deeply and thought to herself, Could it be that this friend of his has a special relationship with him? Is he worthy of his attention?
Bai Yiluo satisfied Ling Xiao's request, but she didn't know why Ling Xiao was so confident. Didn't he know that when he was concocting alchemy, he couldn't stand being mocked by others?
After all, the chances of concocting a divine pill were only around thirty percent for an ordinary alchemist. A slightly weaker alchemist would probably only have a twenty percent chance.
Under such circumstances, he was still refining pills in public. If this wasn't bragging and showing off, what was?
Ling Xiao did what he said he would do, he did not want to delay for even a moment. He requested Bai Yiluo to immediately arrange a place for him to refine pills.
Bai Yiluo and Liu Fangyi were confused. It was their first time seeing such an impatient Divine Apothecary.
They really didn't know where Ling Xiao's confidence came from. Had he never thought that he would fail?
Even though Bai Yiluo didn't believe him, she still prepared a place and divine materials for him according to Ling Xiao's request.
At the same time, she also arranged for many elders to watch, including their sect's Divine Apothecary, Jiang Liezhen.
"Sect Leader, tell me honestly, what's going on?
Could it be that we have invited another Divine Apothecary back? "Jiang Liezhen asked Bai Yiluo.
Jiang Liezhen looked like an old woman. She was at the peak of the middle level God King and was also a Divine Apothecary.
Bai Yiluo revealed a faint smile and said, "It's a brat from Dragon Gate who thinks he's good. I don't know what his intentions are, but he's actually in a hurry to refine a divine pill for us."
Jiang Liezhen frowned and said, "Dragon Gate?
My sect doesn't have any dealings with them. Could it be that they're here to swindle us? "
"Hehe, this is what I don't understand. Furthermore, he requested to refine pills in public, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know that he's a Divine Apothecary. That's why I wanted Elder Jiang to come and supervise him. Once we find out that he's a fake, don't blame us for being merciless."
Although Ling Xiao requested to refine pills in public, the place that Bai Yiluo had arranged for him was not a place that anyone could come to. Only a few elders and deacons were here to watch.
These people only wanted to watch the show. Was this so-called Dragon Gate's Divine Apothecary real or fake?
It was just that when they saw Ling Xiao's young and handsome appearance, they all suspected that their eyes were playing tricks on them.
In their impression, those who could reach the Divine Apothecary Realm were all old monsters, but the one in front of them was an excessively young brat. It was truly hard for them to believe.
Any alchemist would first have to ensure that they had a certain level of success in cultivation. As their strength increased, they would have more power to refine pills. It could be said that cultivation would take a lot of time, and learning alchemy would also take a lot of time.
One had to reach the God King Realm in order to have the qualifications to aspire to the Divine Apothecary Realm.
Therefore, anyone would think that cultivating and learning alchemy at the same time would definitely take up twice the amount of time compared to others.
Jiang Liezhen had a deep understanding of this point. This was also why she was tens of thousands of years old, but only had the strength of a mid-level God King. Moreover, at this realm, if she didn't have a great opportunity, it would be impossible for her to advance any further.
"What is the Sect Master doing? Look at him, he looks like he's still wet behind the ears. How could he be a Divine Apothecary?"
"Could he be the reincarnation of some Primordial Elder? Senior Sister, look, he's already at the strength of a low-level God King!"
"Who knows? I hope he really has some skills. Otherwise, it'll be a waste of divine materials."
"He's so bold to refine pills in public. Isn't he afraid of being humiliated? How laughable!"
Amidst the doubtful discussions, Ling Xiao had already begun to refine pills.
He moved like the wind and his form was like a pine tree. His skillful movements were elegant yet steady, giving people a feeling that he was a part of nature.
Just the first impression he gave them was enough to dispel all their previous doubts.
His movements became faster and faster, and his handsome face revealed a strong sense of confidence. It was as if refining pills was a piece of cake for him.
Bai Yiluo, Liu Fangyi, and Jiang Liezhen couldn't help but be a little dazed.
As for Xiao Zhencai, she revealed a faint, complacent smile. Because Ling Xiao was a member of her Dragon Gate, she could also bask in his glory.
The medicinal fragrance spread for thousands of miles, and the phenomenon shocked the world!
When the divine pill was refined, a shocking phenomenon appeared in the sky above the Lotus Sect, shocking everyone in the sect.
It wasn't that the Lotus Sect didn't have people who could refine divine pills, but Jiang Liezhen's alchemy room had already been set up with layers of restrictions that could isolate any phenomenon. So, normally, the people in the Lotus Sect wouldn't have the chance to see the phenomenon.
Now that something like this had suddenly happened, they couldn't help but be surprised.
Moreover, this kind of phenomenon would appear every other day, and each time it appeared, the scene would be different. They finally realized that something was happening in the church.
After asking around, they found out that someone was teaching them how to refine divine pills, and he was refining them publicly in a martial arts arena.
The place where Ling Xiao was refining pills gradually increased from the original dozen people.
Now, there were already several hundred people watching. Two-thirds of them were women, and only one-third were men.
Among these women, some were elders, some were deacons, and some were direct disciples. They could all maintain their youthful looks forever, and every one of them looked so gorgeous and charming.
However, when they looked at the dignified, confident, and handsome man in the arena, their beautiful eyes rippled with respect and infatuation.
"Who is he? He's so young and so powerful. Could he be a new male disciple of my sect?"
"What are you talking about? Can't you see that he's refining divine pills?
How could he be a disciple of my sect? He might be a new consecrated elder. He looks so handsome and has such a personality. He's the type I like! "
"You're infatuated. With your conditions, how could he like you? Didn't you see the sect leader and Elder Jiang watching over there? I think this person's background is not small!"
"That's true. For such a big figure, there aren't many sisters in our sect that are worthy of him."
"That's not necessarily true. Don't forget that we still have a Junior Martial Uncle!"
In the forbidden area of the Lotus Sect, this was the place where their old sect leader lived alone.
Tens of thousands of years ago, their old sect leader retreated behind the scenes and no longer cared about worldly affairs. For tens of thousands of years, he hadn't accepted any disciples.
However, a few decades ago, this old sect leader personally announced that he would accept another disciple.
And this disciple of hers was Meng Ran, who had the Water God Body. Because of this, Meng Ran's position in the Lotus Sect was quite high. Adding on her cold and elegant temperament, she was called the "Goddess" by the people in the sect.
A year ago, she stepped into the Divine King Realm, so the "Goddess" title was even more appropriate.
She was the fastest disciple to step into the Divine King Realm in the past ten thousand years, making her name even more famous in the sect. She became the goddess in the hearts of all the male disciples and the idol in the hearts of all the female disciples.
Even the strange phenomenon had long been noticed by all parts of the sect, and even this forbidden area was no exception.
A woman stood at the peak of the snowy mountain. She wore light blue clothes, and her entire body seemed to have merged with the world. Just her back gave people the ethereal charm of a fairy that had descended to the world.
The thousands of black willows fluttered in the wind, giving off an otherworldly feeling. Every part of that exquisite figure was matched perfectly, not adding or subtracting a bit. It was just like the saying, "fat but not greasy, never tired of looking at her". It really made people unable to find fault with her. Her face that was as beautiful as a fairy's could even make hundreds of flowers lose their colour. She was so beautiful that it was suffocating, so beautiful that it made people feel ashamed of themselves.
She was like the Snow Lotus Flower Queen of the Snow Lotus Mountain Range. She had a sense of arrogance, as if she was looking down on all the flowers. She also had a cold elegance that was as cold as ice. That feeling of being alone could easily make people fall for her. It was just that her autumn eyes contained a coldness that kept people a thousand miles away. It really made people not dare to get close to her easily.
She was the "Goddess" that everyone in the Lotus Sect called Meng Ran. She had the strength of a low level Divine King, and she was only a little over sixty years old. She had the face and body of a twenty year old.
