Ten Thousand Dragons Technique-Chapter 119: Lin Xuan’s Results! Stunned the Whole Audience!
The other alchemy geniuses laughed. "This kid is about to be exposed."
"He just became a Second-Tier Alchemy Master two months ago. How could he possibly refine a nine-transformation elixir?"
The Tower Master sighed upon hearing this. "Let’s wait another hour. If he still hasn’t come out, his test will be deemed a failure," he said. "In that case, he won’t be participating in this alchemy competition."
"Understood," Elder Chen nodded, sighing inwardly as well. Lin Xuan’s talent is definitely top-notch, but he’s just too boastful.
Another hour passed. It had now been three hours, and Lin Xuan still hadn’t emerged. Zhao Feiyan smirked. I guessed right. He was just bragging after all.
The Tower Master spoke with disappointment, "Go and get him."
Elder Chen walked over, knocked on the Alchemy Room door, and said, "Young Master Lin, please come out."
「Inside the Great Emperor Ring.」
Lin Xuan’s fingers danced continuously. Before him hovered a cluster of blue flames, as mysterious and unfathomable as a starry sky. This was the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire. Under his control, the flames morphed into different shapes, sometimes dispersing, sometimes gathering.
His forehead was beaded with sweat, but his eyes shone with excitement. His control over the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire was becoming more and more proficient.
Just then, the big black dog’s voice sounded. "Kid, someone’s looking for you outside."
Lin Xuan stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked, "How long have I been in here?"
"Three hours," the big black dog replied.
Lin Xuan smacked his forehead. "Darn it, I forgot I was in the middle of a test! I have to get out of here."
With that, Lin Xuan exited the Great Emperor Ring. Once outside, he picked up the elixir from the table and opened the door to the Alchemy Room.
"Young Master Lin, you’re finally out! I was worried something had happened to you!" Elder Chen had been knocking for a long time with no response and was just about to force his way in.
"My apologies, I fell asleep," Lin Xuan lied.
Hearing this, Zhao Feiyan rolled her eyes. The other genius disciples erupted in laughter. He fell asleep during a test?
"Damn, he’s beyond saving."
"I bet he didn’t even try to refine it."
"What a braggart."
The Tower Master frowned slightly and asked in a low voice, "How many transformations did you achieve?"
Standing to the side, Zhao Feiyan gloated, "Lin Xuan, weren’t you just confidently boasting that you could achieve nine transformations? Go on, then. Take out your nine-transformation elixir and show us."
"Alright, prepare to be amazed," Lin Xuan said, presenting the elixir in his hand.
HAHAHAHA! The crowd roared with laughter. Zhao Feiyan snorted coldly. He’s still bluffing, even now. Fine, I’d like to see how you get out of this.
She glanced at Lin Xuan’s palm, but one look was enough to leave her completely stunned. In his palm rested an elixir marked with nine distinct patterns.
Elder Chen gasped, "A Nine-Transformation Elixir!"
The Tower Master snatched the elixir and examined it carefully. He looked up, his voice filled with disbelief. "You actually refined it?"
The entire room was shocked. The other alchemy geniuses stopped laughing, their faces a mixture of shock and terror. What is happening? Did Lin Xuan really refine the Nine-Transformation Restoration Elixir? He really performed nine refinements! Heavens, how is this possible? So this guy wasn’t bluffing after all.
At that moment, they were utterly dumbfounded.
Zhao Feiyan was even more flabbergasted. She shook her head frantically. "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could you possibly achieve nine transformations?"
Lin Xuan had only been a Second-Tier Alchemy Master for two months. How could he be so heaven-defying? After all, she had been a Second-Tier Alchemy Master for two years and had only managed to achieve eight transformations. Could this kid be even more skilled than me? She couldn’t accept it.
"How did you do it?" The Tower Master was also incredibly shocked, having never seen anyone so formidable.
"Was it difficult?" Lin Xuan shrugged. "I found it quite simple. I just kept refining it, and out it came."
Everyone listening nearly coughed up blood. Simple? What a joke! This is as difficult as ascending to heaven!
Zhao Feiyan gritted her teeth in fury, feeling thoroughly humiliated.
The Tower Master, however, was ecstatic. "Lin Xuan, you’ve done very well! Refining a nine-transformation elixir in three hours is an extraordinary achievement, even in the Great Xia Country. This time, you might really have a chance to break into the top ten."
The others gasped, their shock deepening. Is Lin Xuan really that powerful? It seems he’s going to soar to new heights in this competition.
Zhao Feiyan ground her teeth and sneered, "Hmph! You were just lucky. If I were to spend three hours, I’d also have a chance to refine nine transformations."
"Who said it took me three hours?" Lin Xuan retorted. "It only took me ten minutes. I spent the rest of the time sleeping."
What?
Everyone was dumbfounded. Ten minutes to succeed? That’s impossible. They refused to believe it.
Zhao Feiyan roared, "Stop bragging! Even if you did refine the Nine-Transformation Restoration Elixir, you can’t boast like that! Not even the mysterious Young Master Lin could do it in ten minutes!"
The Tower Master didn’t believe it either. He figured Lin Xuan was joking with him.
"I’m telling the truth. It really took me ten minutes," Lin Xuan insisted. "And also, I am that mysterious Young Master Lin."
Zhao Feiyan started to retort, but the Tower Master cut her off. "Alright, that’s enough arguing. Whether it took ten minutes or three hours, the fact is you refined the Nine-Transformation Restoration Elixir. Your talent and strength are both impressive. I look forward to your performance in the competition. Let’s go. We’re heading to the Pill Tower Headquarters."
The Tower Master turned and left to make preparations. The other disciples also headed downstairs.
Zhao Feiyan snorted coldly. "So what if you refined the Nine-Transformation Restoration Elixir? That only proves your refinement skill is decent, but that’s not all there is to alchemy. To concoct high-grade elixirs, besides refinement, you need a good Alchemy Furnace, powerful flames, and the Fire Control Technique. Besides your high refinement level, you’ve got nothing else. Especially since you don’t even have a Spiritual Fire. How can you possibly compete with me?"
The others were stunned to hear this.
"What? This Lin Xuan doesn’t even have a Spiritual Fire?"
"Is he still using Earth Vein Fire?"
"Is he that poor?"
"No wonder it took him three hours to refine the Nine-Transformation Restoration Elixir. His flame is too weak!"
"Then he has no chance. He definitely won’t make the top ten, maybe not even the top thirty."
"The alchemy competition doesn’t just test the refinement of ingredients."
"Ultimately, it all comes down to the grade of the elixir you can produce."
"Without a Spiritual Fire, the grade of any elixir Lin Xuan refines will surely be low."
Hearing all this, Lin Xuan simply smiled. Is Spiritual Fire that impressive? He didn’t see Spiritual Fire as anything special.
Zhao Feiyan was furious. "You don’t even possess a Spiritual Fire, yet you dare to look down on it? You’re too arrogant!"
Lin Xuan said, "I may not have a Spiritual Fire, but I have an Anomalous Fire!"
