The scenery inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals was beautiful and picturesque.
On a giant Mount of the Healing Soul, the Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong floated in midair.
Ling Xian was wearing a black robe and quietly standing behind Liao Cang Qiong. He found it hard to hide the joy on his face.
Eight years of anticipation, eight years of waiting, the Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong had finally awakened. How could he not be happy?
The Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong was full of joy as well. For one, he finally woke up. For two, he learned about Ling Xian's achievements from the Untainted and Feng Qing Ming.
To him, as a Master, nothing makes him happier than his apprentice's achievements. Ling Xian's achievements, without a doubt, made him satisfied. Very satisfied.
On top of that, he missed Ling Xian for eight years. If it weren't for his status as a real Immortal, Liao Cang Qiong would've revealed his true feelings.
"Ling Xian, I really did not think that in merely eight years, you would grow to where you are today." The Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong slowly turned around and stared at his proud apprentice.
He was exclaiming because he didn't think that in merely eight years, the meditational level cultivator would grow to become a completion leveled powerhouse. As for pride, it was naturally because his disciple had obtained such a brilliant achievement.
"Master, you are flattering me. It's all because of you." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, revealing a warm smile.
"You are wrong."
The Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong looked at the smiling young man and continued, "I was merely your guide. I helped you open up the path of cultivation. Everything you've achieved was based on your own hard work."
"No matter what, without you, I wouldn't be where I am today." Ling Xian smiled mysteriously, "Master, it's been eight years. I want to give you a present."
"A present?" The Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong's eyes brightened.
"I believe that you will be satisfied with this gift." Ling Xian grinned. His confidence lit up the entire universe.
"Oh?"
The Immortal of Liao Cang Qiong checked out the handsome Ling Xian after eight years and grinned, "I am very satisfied with you now."
"I promise you, when this present appears, you will be even more satisfied." Ling Xian smiled confidently. He believed that after he takes out the present, Liao Cang Qiong will forget himself and laugh out loud.
"So confident? Then I will have to take a good look. "Liao Cang Xian stroked his beard, a look of anticipation appeared on his face.
"Just watch." Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips. Then, he summoned and a golden Dan the size of a longan appeared.
This pill was the size of a longan and was completely golden in color. There wasn't even a single pill pattern on it, but it gave off a natural feeling. As soon as it appeared, it emitted a rich pill fragrance and resplendent light, illuminating the sky.
It was the perfect Foundation Building Pill!
Immediately, the Immortal of Alchemy froze. He stared deadly at the golden Dan and his eyes were full of shock.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, a pill with one hundred percent effectiveness was also known as the perfect pill. It was the lifelong pursuit of every alchemist. Sadly, this Dan was far too difficult to concoct. Even the Immortal of Alchemy did not dare to say that he could easily concoct a perfect Dan.
This was why when he saw the tenth ranked Dan before him, he was shocked.
"This Dan … was brewed by you?" Liao Cang Qiong's expression was a little excited as he thought of this possibility. His breathing hastened.
Sensing Liao Cang Qiong's anticipation, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he said something that made Liao Cang Qiong extremely excited.
"If it wasn't brewed by me, why would I show it to you?"
At those words, Liao Cang Qiong's body began to shake violently. He was at a point where he could not be more excited. He laughed out loud, "Hahaha, good, good. Perfect Dan, my disciple actually concocted a Perfect Dan, the heavens really have eyes! "
After finding out that this Dan was brewed by Ling Xian, even with Liao Cang Qiong's mentality, he couldn't help but feel emotional. He was so excited that he could barely contain himself. It was because this matter made him too happy.
This was a perfect Dan!
Even though Liao Cang Qiong could have brewed it, the Dan before him was brewed by Ling Xian. This meant something different.
In the Taoism community, every alchemist's lifelong pursuit is to brew a perfect Dan. If their apprentice successfully brewed a perfect Dan, then it was a great honor!
Without a doubt, Liao Cang Qiong was experiencing this honor!
"Hahaha, the Heavens have taken pity on me. They allowed me, Liao Cang Qiong, to accept such an excellent apprentice. The Heavens have been good to me!"
Liao Cang Qiong laughed out loud. He felt a great sense of happiness. As he laughed, tears of joy rolled down his cheeks.
Originally, when he woke up and saw Ling Xian, his eyes were a little wet. However, he didn't want to be too emotional, so he controlled himself. Now that his apprentice had achieved such glory, it was hard for him to contain his joy.
Seeing how excited Liao Cang Qiong was, Ling Xian's lips curled up into a smile. His eyes were also a little wet.
He knew very well that there was very little he could do to repay Liao Cang Qiong. The only thing he could do was make Liao Cang Qiong proud.
Now that he saw Liao Cang Qiong laughing so hard and crying, he suddenly felt like everything he did was worth it.
"Good, good, good."
Liao Cang Qiong said "good" three times in a row. Looking at the proud apprentice before him, he smiled, "Ling Xian, you did well. I did not think you could brew a perfect Dan at your age."
"It's all because of your guidance." Ling Xian grinned.
"No, it's because of your hard work." Liao Cang Qiong suppressed his excitement and asked, "Ling Xian, do you know how old I was when I made my first perfect Dan, and what realm it was?"
"I … I don't know." Ling Xian hesitated.
"That's normal. The Nine Continents' Famous Records do not record it in that much detail." Liao Cang Qiong reminisced. After a while, he sighed, "My first perfect Dan was when I was 56. Back then, I was a Fourth Realm Alchemist."
Ling Xian frowned, not understanding why Liao Cang Qiong was suddenly bringing this up.
"You still don't understand?"
Liao Cang Qiong grinned. The way he looked at Ling Xian softened, "Think about it. The first time I brewed a perfect Dan was when I was 56 years old. What about you? If I'm not wrong, your soul is only of the Seventh Realm. You are only 23 years old. "
"So that's what you mean." Ling Xian finally understood why Liao Cang Qiong was exclaiming.
Liao Cang Qiong has been obsessed with alchemy his entire life. His knowledge of alchemy was unparalleled and he was nicknamed the Immortal of Alchemy. His alchemy skills were second only to the legendary Alchemist.
The first time he brewed a perfect Dan was when he was 56 years old and a Fourth Realm Alchemist. Yet Ling Xian, as a Seventh Realm Alchemist, at 23 years old, brewed a perfect Dan!
From a certain perspective, Ling Xian had broken Liao Cang Qiong's record!
"Aye, 23 years old, of the Seventh Realm, brewed a perfect Dan." Liao Cang Qiong exclaimed. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of praise, "From this point alone, you have surpassed your master."
Hearing this, Ling Xian rubbed his nose, thinking that Liao Cang Qiong was wrong.
If he remembered correctly, when he brewed a perfect Dan, he was 19 years old and of the Eighth Realm.
