The giant Sun hung high in the sky, shedding down an infinite amount of light.
The center of the City of Dan was in an uproar. Everyone was cheering and cheering for Ling Xian.
Everyone's gaze was fixated on him. There was jealousy, anticipation, and respect in their eyes.
Some of the female cultivators in the crowd, in particular, were looking at Ling Xian with sparkling eyes. They didn't even blink.
Since the beginning of time, heroes have always loved beauties. Beauties would easily fall in love with heroes. Though what Ling Xian did today wasn't exactly heroic, the title of being the winner of the alchemy gathering was enough to win over many female cultivators.
The gathering of the alchemists was held once every 10 years and was the gathering of the top young generation in Yuezhou. It wasn't hard to imagine how important the winner was. If one can get the crown, then it means one can be known as the strongest alchemist of the younger generation in Yuezhou.
Especially this year's gathering of the alchemists, with the appearance of a monster like Dan Tong Sheng, the title of "winner" was far more important than before.
If this was before, a Dan of the eighth rank would've been enough to win. But this time, there was a spiritual Dan of the ninth rank. Despite this, Dan Tong Sheng still didn't win.
This alone was enough to prove just how important the winner of the gathering of the alchemists was!
At first, Dan Tong Sheng wanted to step on Ling Xian and use him as a stepping stone to show off his powerfulness. Sadly, the result was that he was the stepping stone to show off Ling Xian's strength!
One has to admit that this was a giant irony!
As for Ling Xian's powerfulness, he didn't need Dan Tong Sheng's help. The moment he brewed a perfect Dan, he had proven his capabilities!
To put it more accurately, since the beginning of the test, he had displayed capabilities that normal people could never hope to achieve. He continued to shock everyone!
Whether it was the two purple lines, the insane number of points, or the fact that he melted the Fire Testing Stone in half an hour, they were all shocking!
Not only did he shock the hearts of everyone in Pill City, but it also meant that he deserved to be the champion!
Therefore, the moment the Cao Clan Leader announced that Ling Xian was the winner, the entire City of Dan boiled.
Everyone was shouting and cheering, expressing the excitement and joy in their hearts to their heart's content.
For one, Ling Xian's name wasn't well known and he had no background. He relied on his own capabilities to get to this winning position. This was in line with the mentality of the commoners, who regarded him as some sort of spiritual sustenance.
Secondly, many people placed their bets on Ling Xian winning the championship. Though the amount was not much, it was enough to make many people rich.
Therefore, the entire City of Dan turned into a noisy ocean.
Inside the Realm of Alchemy, Hong Zhuang Luo stared at the calm and handsome man with a complex look. There was unwillingness, frustration, and also a hint of admiration. There was even a hint of admiration.
At first, she was full of confidence and thought she could defeat Ling Xian. But after that, her confidence turned into an unwillingness to admit defeat, and after he won the championship, she not only gave up the idea of chasing after him.
Instead, she felt a trace of admiration for him.
What could they do? Ling Xian was far too dazzling. The title of the winner of the gathering of alchemists, on top of that perfect Dan, made him look like the Sun in the sky.
Ignoring his looks and temperament, his achievements in alchemy alone were enough to tempt many women.
Especially women like Hong Zhuang Luo, who was obsessed with alchemy.
"What a genius alchemist. He suppressed the strongest descendant of our Clan." The Hong Clan Leader sighed, his face did not look too good.
The Hong Clan had won the championship two times in a row. Naturally, they wanted to win the championship three times in a row. Sadly, the winning title was taken by Ling Xian. Naturally, he was not happy about this.
"Don't be unhappy. I think we should be thanking this person."
The Cao Clan Leader grinned, "Without Ling Xian, the winning title would've been taken away by the arrogant Dan Tong Sheng. Don't forget, 10 years ago, he made us lose face. If he snatches the champion's position away from us, where will we put our faces? "
"That is true." The Shang Guan Clan Leader smiled. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of admiration.
Hearing this, the Hong Clan Leader understood this logic. The way he looked at Ling Xian softened.
After all, compared to the arrogant Dan Tong Sheng, it was better for Ling Xian to win the championship. On top of that, he taught Dan Tong Sheng a lesson and helped the five clans vent their anger.
"The winning title, I finally got it."
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile. Though he didn't care about fame, to be able to win this great honor made him somewhat happy.
Don't forget, this was the gathering of the top young generation in Yuezhou. To be able to win the championship meant his alchemy skills had reached the peak of the young generation!
In other words, he was the number one alchemist of the young generation!
At least on the surface, that was the case. Therefore, even with Ling Xian's mentality, he couldn't help but feel happy.
However, just as he was feeling happy, the clouds in the sky suddenly turned dark. Then, the entire sky darkened. Arcs of lightning danced among the clouds, exuding a sense of destruction.
It was the God's Trial he experienced once!
Instantly, Ling Xian's expression changed. Everyone's expression changed as well.
God's Trial was a name everyone has heard of. From a certain perspective, it represented destruction and terror!
To put it bluntly, once a God's Trial descends, unless it was a monster with terrifying capabilities, very few people can survive it. Though compared to the God's Trial, the Trial of an alchemist was weaker, it was not something a normal Heaven's Favorite can defend against.
Therefore, when everyone saw the dark clouds in the sky, they immediately retreated at top speed, afraid that they would be touched by even a little bit of it.
Even Fu Di and Shen Xian, the two omnipotent powerhouses, had a change of expression. God's Trial was extremely terrifying. Even with their cultivation level, being touched by it would be very troublesome.
"The Trial of an alchemist, it's this thing again."
Feeling the brewing terror, Ling Xian couldn't help but to bitterly chuckle. He had experienced the God's Trial once, so he naturally knew how terrifying this thing was.
Though he successfully made it through that time, his skin was split open and he bled profusely. Even today, he was still a little fearful.
However, since the God's Trial had arrived, then there was no way to escape. The only way was to face it head on.
"Come at me. It's been a while since I've exercised my bones. I will use this opportunity to unleash my desire to fight!"
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile. There was no fear on his handsome face. Instead, it was full of desire to fight.
HOMMMM!
He stepped forward one step and terrifying Qi roared out of him and shot through the cloud!
Instantly, the atmosphere in the entire area turned heavy.
As if sensing Ling Xian's fearlessness, the thunderclouds in the sky rumbled and rumbled. Thick bolts of lightning struck down. Three of them at once!
The moment they landed, space crumbled. Everyone shuddered!
Everyone's heart was filled with fear and their bodies were shaking uncontrollably. Looking at Ling Xian, who appeared minuscule under the lightning, one thought flashed across their minds.
Could it be that this alchemy genius, who had just begun to shine, was about to fall under the God's Trial?
