In the cave abode, Dan Yangzi's face was burning as if he had been slapped a few times in the face, causing a burning sensation.
The Supreme Headmaster of the Xuan House and the others felt humiliated as well.
They were certain that Dan Yangzi could cure Elder Xuanji. Yet the result was that not even a trace of the backlash was removed.
This proved that Dan Yangzi was blindly arrogant and proved that they were blind.
"It really won't work …" The Second Luo Xue was in a daze.
He was happy that Ling Xian didn't embarrass himself. He was sad that the Dan of Exorcism failed to get rid of the backlash.
"I thought you lived up to your name. I cannot believe you don't live up to your name."
Ling Xian spoke softly. When the Dan of Exorcism first appeared, he had already identified the composition of this Dan. Therefore, he was certain that this Dan could not expel the Elder Xuan Ji's energy.
Reality proved that he was right.
It also proved that Dan Yangzi overestimated himself and had no self-awareness.
"You!" Dan Yangzi's face was green and his entire body was shaking.
He had no words to argue.
He truly had overestimated himself. Remembering how confident he was that the Dan of Exorcism could cure Elder Xuanji, he wanted to find a hole to hide in.
"A person who doesn't have any self-awareness actually became the strongest Alchemy Grandmaster in Zhi Ge City. Just thinking about it makes me feel ridiculous."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. He was merely stating a fact.
However, to Dan Yangzi's ears, it was without a doubt, a taunt.
But he had nothing to say.
The reason why he earned the title of the strongest alchemist in the City of Zhi Ge was not because he was the best alchemist. It was because he was the only alchemist in the entire city.
To be more accurate, he was the only alchemist in the City of Zhi Ge. It was just that everyone thought he was the strongest.
"You just happened to be lucky. What gives you the right to insult Dan Yangzi? "Bu Chen glared at Ling Xian.
"Lucky?"
Ling Xian shook his head and laughed, "You are an idiot. Without 100% confidence, why would I question an alchemist?"
Hearing this, Bu Chen's face turned green and white. He had nothing to say.
Dan Yangzi and the others reacted the same way.
Not everyone dared to question an alchemy grandmaster. Without ability and confidence, who would dare to step forward?
At this moment, Dan Yangzi regretted. He regretted not listening to Ling Xian. At least he wouldn't have lost face.
"At the very least, Senior Dan Yangzi gave Foreign Elder Profound Secrets a new lease of life. What about you? You only know how to talk! "Bu Chen sneered.
"Is that so …"
Ling Xian glared at Bu Chen and said, "Move, don't block the way."
Bu Chen was stunned when he heard that. Everyone was baffled as well.
Only the Second Luo Xue realized it. Her eyes lit up and she asked hopefully, "Master, do you have a way to save my grandpa?"
"I'm not 100% sure, but I'm at least 80% sure."
Ling Xian faintly grinned. The Dan he was about to brew was of a very high level. Even though he was already in the grandmaster realm, he wasn't 100% confident.
"That's enough." Second, Luo Xue was surprised. She knew Ling Xian. If he said 80%, then it was 80%. He wouldn't be exaggerating.
"So, you also want to save him …"
Dan Yangzi's eyes narrowed. He suddenly felt that his chance to regain his face had arrived.
The Supreme Headmaster and the others felt the same way.
Dan Yangzi had overestimated himself, but he was an alchemist after all. If even he couldn't get rid of the backlash, then it wasn't hard to imagine how difficult it would be.
Therefore, everyone smiled. But because of what happened before, nobody dared to mock him.
"Quiet down, I'm about to brew."
Ling Xian glared at them and waved his hand. The Cauldron of Heaven and Earth appeared.
At the same time, seven stalks of divine medicines appeared. Spiritual light flickered, and divine multicolored light filled the sky.
The Dan Ling Xian was about to brew was called the Purifying World. It was a very high level Dan with great effects.
Similar to Dan Yangzi's Exorcism Dan, this Dan could also get rid of the backlash and extend one's lifespan. However, its effects were many times stronger than the Exorcism Dan!
"Luckily, I have all the ingredients needed to brew the Purifying Dan. Or else I would have to spend more time preparing."
Ling Xian silently grinned. The Dan of Purified World didn't require many spiritual medicines. He only needed seven. He already had six of them. The other one was not important and could be replaced with other spiritual medicines.
If this was anyone else, they would have a hard time finding replacements. But to an alchemist like Ling Xian, this was nothing.
"Let's begin. I hope I can succeed on the first try."
Ling Xian's expression turned serious. Flames rose from his palm and he began to brew the seven spiritual medicines.
As the saying goes, once an expert makes a move, you'll know whether he's real or not. Dan Yangzi's character might not be very good, but he was a true Alchemy Grandmaster.
Therefore, the moment Ling Xian began brewing, he screamed out loud.
"Alchemist?"
Apart from Second Luo Xue, everyone else was shocked and dumbfounded.
Not even in their dreams did they think that the unassuming and unassuming Ling Xian was a rare alchemy grandmaster!
"How is this possible? How can he be an alchemist?" Bu Chen stared at Ling Xian dumbfoundedly.
Everyone else felt the same way.
Ling Xian was far too young. To have achieved so much at such a young age was like a dream!
"No wonder he was so sure that my Dan could not get rid of the backlash. He is also an alchemist." Dan Yangzi's heart was full of bitterness.
He was considered outstanding, but when he became an alchemist, he was already 2,000 years old. Compared to Ling Xian, who was less than 200 years old, the difference was like the difference between cloud and mud.
"No wonder Junior Sister wasn't overjoyed when I said that I managed to invite Senior Dan Yangzi. So it turns out that you've already invited an Alchemy Grandmaster," muttered Bu Chen.
He had also achieved a lot. Out of everyone in his generation, he was considered one of the most talented. But compared to Ling Xian, he paled in comparison.
The Supreme Headmaster and the Elder of Law Enforcement were also bitter. They finally understood why the Second Luo Xue listened to Ling Xian.
"I should've known. If he wasn't an alchemist, how could he be so sure that my Dan would not work?"
Dan Yangzi was bitter. But in the next second, it turned into hatred.
Because he thought that Ling Xian purposely didn't reveal his identity to embarrass him.
But he forgot that he was the one who promised that he could get rid of the backlash. He was also the one who insisted on doing things his way.
If he said he wasn't confident he could get rid of the backlash, Ling Xian would've stood out and discussed with him.
"I sure want to see what you are capable of." Dan Yangzi snickered. The backlash inside Elder Xuan Ji's body was very strong. He admitted that there was nothing he could do.
"Be quiet. Don't disturb me while I brew."
Ling Xian said coldly. His hands moved in the air and a series of hand seals appeared, speeding up the brewing process.
The Purifying Dan was extremely difficult to brew. It was the most difficult Dan he's ever brewed.
Therefore, he was extremely careful and didn't dare to be careless.
Sadly, he failed.
The seven spiritual medicines were difficult to combine. The moment the Dan was about to be formed, it exploded with an extremely strong amount of energy, declaring the brewing a failure.
However, Ling Xian was a talented person after all. Using his unparalleled skills, he stabilized the seven spiritual medicines and prevented them from dissipating.
This meant he could try again.
