Chapter 143: Impossible

  Shen Xiang smiled and nodded, his smile was very cold. If the Lü family didn't give in, he would make them suffer!

  Shen Xiang began to get serious, Dan Chang Lao carefully checked his alchemy furnace to prevent him from cheating. At this time, everyone was very seriously watching the two young people refining medicine.

  Most people think that Shen Xiang's chances of winning are not high. Firstly, Shen Xiang was trained under the supervision of Dan Chang Lao. Secondly, Shen Xiang does not have a powerful dan medicine family like the Lyu family behind him. Thirdly, Shen Xiang does not have a dan master's belt.

  Shen Xiang started processing the dan medicine. This was also a rule of the competition, and the medicinal materials had to be processed during the competition. If they were processed beforehand, it would be considered cheating.

  Elder Dan stared intently at Shen Xiang, and when she saw him take out a white grass, her heart skipped a beat!

  That white grass looks very much like white bone in shape, and it is crystal clear, as white as beautiful jade, very beautiful, this is called White Jade Bone Grass, which is the main material for refining White Jade Powder!

  Bai Yu San is a top-grade spiritual pill, on the same level as Zhen Yuan Dan. It can only be refined by a 4th-level alchemist, and there are only ten of them in Tai Wu Men's Tai Dan Institute. As a result, Tai Wu Men has a severe shortage of Zhen Yuan Dan, forcing them to purchase it from Dan Xiang Tao Yuan at a low price, which is why the relationship between Tai Wu Men and Dan Xiang Tao Yuan is very good.

  Tan Chang Lao secretly despised Shen Xiang, who had been hiding in the shadows, pretending to be a pig eating a tiger. From the moment she saw Shen Xiang take out the White Jade Powder, she knew that Lü Zhengnan was doomed to lose.

  "Don't you think it's a bit shameless what you're doing?" Dan Changgong transmitted his voice to Shen Xiang.

  "What's the big deal, it's a consensual thing, and besides, this is a gamble, fair and square. I'm just too lazy to boast about what kind of pill I can refine at most. It was his underestimation of me that led to his failure. If he wasn't so arrogant and didn't care so much about saving face, he definitely wouldn't have lost so badly." Shen Xiang sneered.

  "Hmph." Elder Dan just let out a cold hum, she couldn't say anything else, she just felt that Shen Xiang was too cunning. She decided to be on her guard from now on, lest she get sold out and still have to help him count the money.

  Lü Zhēnán was a distance away from Shěn Xiáng, he couldn't see what kind of pill Shěn Xiáng was refining, nor did he go to pay attention, but instead focused on refining the pill, however Shěn Xiáng could see that he had just taken out the medicinal materials for the Ling-class mid-grade Wǔ Yuán Dān.

  Shen Xiang put his own medicinal materials into the Flame Dragon Furnace, then dripped in White Spirit Liquid, which was also a main material for refining White Jade Powder. He refined the White Jade Powder leisurely while handling the materials of another kind of elixir.

  "Xuanzhencao, Wanlingguo, Lingjingru, Dayuanguoren... it seems you've already mastered the art of refining the True Yuan Pill!" Dan Laozhang took another deep breath, her voice filled with astonishment. She hadn't expected that in just three short years, Shen Xiang would have reached this level!

  He can actually refine two kinds of high-grade spiritual pills!

  "Little nephew, I'm not someone who can be your uncle just like that. I have some foundation." Shen Xiang smiled proudly and responded.

  "So you're a four-stage alchemy master?" asked Dan Lao with a shocked expression.

  "Of course it is, but that jade pendant is a bit big and has too many bloody words written on the back, which makes it look somewhat unpleasant, so I didn't hang it at my waist like Lü Zhengnan." Shen Xiang said with a smile.

  At just twenty years old, he has already refined four dan pills. Even if Dan Lao was extremely displeased with Shen Xiang, she couldn't help but admire him. Now she was completely speechless - what else could she say?

  "Dan Changlao, is there a relationship between you and the leader of Danxiang Taoyuan?" Shen Xiang asked, while refining his dan and communicating with Dan Changlao through his divine sense.

  "Old Master Dan's body trembled slightly: 'I don't have to answer you!'"

  "Anyway, I'll defeat you sooner or later and make you my woman, then I'll know." Shen Xiang said with a sly smile.

  "Hmph!" Dan Changlao sneered: "It's still far away, maybe by then I'll have already entered the Heavenly Realm!"

  It's indeed very likely that Dan Changlao is in the state of Nirvana, standing at the top of the mortal world, and he's also an alchemist, so his promotion will be very fast.

  Shen Xiang no longer spoke to her and focused on refining his elixir.

  It will last for five watches into the night, but now those who can stay are all some gamblers, they have all bet some crystal stones, and they are all waiting for the result.

  Shen Xiang didn't want to crush Lü Zhengnan too much, so he deliberately prolonged the process. Originally, he could have finished in just one hour, but he was worried that Lü Zhengnan might not be able to accept it and would do something crazy.

  "Fortunately, Master Dan didn't accept Wu Xuanxuan as his apprentice, otherwise she would have to call me Shifu Zu later." Shen Xiang said with a smile, at this time he had already refined it almost.

  "Qianqian's talent is very high, I will vigorously cultivate her, and I must let her surpass you! Don't be complacent." Dan Lao said with full confidence.

  "That's perfect." Shen Xiang smiled ambiguously, but his eyes were somewhat complicated.

  "Thank you for cultivating my future wife, Wu Xuanxuan is destined to be mine." Long Xueyi impersonated Shen Xiang again and transmitted a message to Dan Changlao through his divine sense.

  Shen Xiang's back felt a chill, but he couldn't help but admire Long Xueyi's skillful use of her spiritual sense, managing to avoid detection by Dan Lao. However, this had put him in a difficult spot - he had repeatedly warned the mischievous dragon girl not to play pranks in front of Dan Lao, as that would lead to big trouble.

  "What?" Dan Lao's voice turned cold, she knew Wu Xuanxuan's thoughts about Shen Xiang, and she also knew that Shen Xiang had given Wu Xuanxuan great help and encouragement, but she didn't want Wu Xuanxuan and Shen Xiang to be together.

  "This time she's going with the sect leader to meet young heroes from other sects and families, she'll definitely change her mind, there are plenty of men better than you!" Elder Dan said coldly.

  Shen Xiang suddenly felt a bit unconvinced: "Really? I'll be waiting with bated breath!"

  With less than half a time unit left until the end of the five-time-unit period, Lü Zhengnan stood up excitedly and laughed loudly: "Shen Xiang, you've lost for sure! I've successfully refined three mid-grade spiritual pellets!"

  A supervising True Martial Realm alchemist nodded and said, "Lü Zhengnan has successfully refined the Detoxification Pill, the Wu Yuan Pill, and the Exploding Qi Pill. All of them are mid-grade Spirit-level pills with excellent quality!"

  Although it was midnight, the people who had been waiting for the results all cheered and thought that Lü Zhengnan had won. At such a young age, he could refine three types of spiritual middle-grade pills, which was indeed a third-class pill refiner!

  Shen Xiang just smiled and said: "Don't be happy, I haven't finished refining it yet!"

  "What's the big deal? Can you refine four middle-grade spiritual pills?" Lü Zhengnan sneered, he had already seen himself getting that Hell Spirit Mushroom and three Foundation Establishment Pills.

  The five timing cycles ended, Shen Xiang slowly opened the lid of the alchemy furnace and said calmly: "I have refined two kinds of spiritual grade top-grade elixirs, namely White Jade Powder and True Origin Elixir!"

  The people who originally thought they had won the bet had their smiles frozen on their faces, while those who were disappointed because they had bet on Shen Xiang losing also looked disbelieving.

  "Impossible!" Lv Zhengnan immediately shouted loudly.
