Chapter 376 - Get Out of Here Fast!

Because the one to finish first was actually Lin Xuan.

Refining it first is of no use, the elixirs are judged on their grade, not their speed!

Two Jiang family pharmacists snorted coldly.

However, their expressions were somewhat gloomy, clearly harboring deeper hatred towards Lin Xuan now.

“Elder, we have refined a third-grade superior elixir,” the two said quietly to the middle-aged fatty.

The middle-aged fatty nodded slightly, satisfied with the outcome.

“A third-grade superior elixir, we’ve won this time!”

Thinking this, he looked towards Lin Xuan with some complacency.

With a third-grade superior elixir, victory was certain!

Not only could they take down that kid, but they could even drag old man Jiang Song into the mix.

With that thought, a smug expression appeared on the middle-aged fatty’s face.

Not far away, Jiang Song saw the sly smile on that meat bun-like face and felt a shock in his heart.

“Could it be that we’re going to lose?” a sliver of uneasiness surfaced in his mind.

“Alchemy is complete, and now let’s proceed with the comparison.”

“To ensure fairness, I’ve specifically invited the Third Elder from our clan to appraise.”

“He is an Alchemy Master and very fair, as everyone should know,” the middle-aged fatty announced loudly.

“It’s actually the Third Elder, a Fourth-grade alchemist!” disciples around exclaimed.

They never got to see the Third Elder on regular days and hadn’t expected to witness him here.

Under the expectant gazes of everyone, an old man with a long beard appeared on the alchemy platform.

Donned in a white robe, his beard reached down to his chest, his venerable face commanded an air of authority, and he exuded a faint aura of oppression.

Lin Xuan felt a formidable soul power emanating from the old man, not any weaker than Old Man Di Que.

“Truly befitting of Dragon Star Strong Country, an elder from a family in Qingshan City possessing strength not inferior to the top elixir masters of Heavenly Mountain Country,” Lin Xuan marveled inwardly.

“All right, present your elixirs,” the Third Elder said gravely.

The two Third-grade alchemists rapidly opened their palms, displaying the elixirs they held.

“Green Divine Pill, a third-grade superior elixir that specifically treats internal malicious fire and calms the spirit.

Please verify, Third Elder.”

Hearing this, the Third Elder waved his hand, and the two green elixirs traveled into his grasp.

After a brief sense, the Third Elder nodded slightly.

“Indeed, these are third-grade superior elixirs, and to have achieved them in a single attempt is also commendable.”

The middle-aged fatty and the two alchemists smiled, obtaining the affirmation of the Third Elder was not easy.

One should know that the Third Elder rarely praised anyone.

“Elder Jiang Song, what about your elixirs?” the middle-aged fatty sneered.

The surrounding Jiang family disciples also showed curiosity; they wanted to know what grade the elixir Lin Xuan had refined with his bare hands turned out to be.

“Looking at his state, it would be good enough if he managed to refine it at all, let alone expect any grade or efficacy.

That’s just wishful thinking!” Jiang Feng sneered.

“Third Elder, this is the elixir I’ve refined.

Please have a look,” Lin Xuan flicked the elixir from his hand.

With a turn of his palm, the Third Elder had a deep green elixir in his hand when he flipped it open again.

He glanced at it, then suddenly his expression revealed surprise, “This is…”

“It’s a top-grade elixir!” Amazement showed in the Third Elder’s eyes as he inspected it again.

The surrounding Jiang disciples also gasped in surprise upon hearing this.

The middle-aged fatty and the two alchemists frowned slightly, their expressions filled with uncertain surprise.

“Hmph, a second-grade top-grade elixir, no matter how good, can’t compare to a third-grade one.”

“Given his young age, being able to refine a second-grade top-grade elixir is certainly commendable.

However, thinking of comparing with us, he’s still far behind!”

The two alchemists nodded in appraisal.

The Third Elder did not specify what grade the elixir was, but according to both of their guesses, the fact that Lin Xuan could refine Second-grade Elixirs was already extremely shocking.

As for Third-grade Elixirs, that was absolutely impossible!

“Yes, the top-grade elixir, it is indeed a Third-grade top elixir, the Clearing Pill,” the Third Elder slowly said.

His voice was like a Thunder Shock, leaving the crowd dumbfounded.

“What?

A Third-grade top elixir!” The middle-aged fatty nearly bit his tongue off.

The two Third-grade Alchemists by his side were trembling as well, showing a look of terror on their faces.

“Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

“How could an unknown kid possibly refine a Third-grade elixir, and a top-grade one at that!” The two continuously shook their heads.

Jiang Feng and the other disciples turned pale, with a look of utter terror in their eyes.

An existence capable of refining Third-grade Elixirs was definitely not someone they could provoke.

Jiang Jian slightly furrowed his brows, his eyes shining with a blinding light as he stared intently at Lin Xuan.

On the Alchemy Platform, elder Jiang Song was also taken by surprise.

He had originally thought that Lin Xuan had lost, but he hadn’t expected this outcome at all!

“Th-Third Elder, you didn’t see it wrongly, did you?” The middle-aged fatty stammered.

“Hm?” The Third Elder’s expression darkened slightly, “Are you questioning me?”

“We dare not!

How could we ever question you, elder?

Everyone knows that the Third Elder is fair and impartial.”

“Hmph!”

The Third Elder paid no further attention to the middle-aged fatty and the others, he announced loudly, “The results of the competition are quite clear.

This Young Hero Lin has refined a Third-grade top elixir, the effects of which are far better than a Third-grade superior elixir.”

Upon hearing this, the surrounding disciples let out a gasp of astonishment; they had never imagined that this youth, younger than them, was actually an Alchemy Master.

The faces of the middle-aged fatty and the others turned ashen, and they stood there with a look of shifting shadows.

They had initially planned to use this opportunity to get rid of Lin Xuan and solve elder Songtao, but they hadn’t anticipated this result.

This was completely different from what they had planned.

Jiang Feng and the other disciples’ faces turned ashen, knowing well the serious consequences of offending an Alchemist!

“Hmph!”

Jiang Jian let out a cold snort.

This outcome was beyond his expectations and had left him slightly annoyed.

However, in front of the Third Elder, it did not seem appropriate for him to act out.

“Although this Young Master Lin has refined a Third-grade top elixir.

It’s still a bit of a stretch to refine elixirs that can raise and fuse with the Soul Fusion mirror.”

“Why not let this young hero hand over the Elixir Recipe to Third Elder, for you to refine it.

Wouldn’t the success rate be much higher?” The middle-aged fatty suggested, bowing his head.

At these words, Lin Xuan’s brows tightened, and his eyes emitted a sharp sword light.

This damn fatty actually dared to covet his Elixir Recipe, which ignited a trace of killing intent in his heart.

At the same time, his gaze also turned to the Third Elder, preparing to flee at any moment.

If the Third Elder truly intended to strike, he would desperately activate the Blood Escape Secret Skill of the black cloak.

Together with the other Secret Skills of the black cloak, he was confident he could escape the siege of the Third Elder and others.

After hearing this, the Third Elder’s eyes suddenly turned sharp, and he coldly looked at the middle-aged fatty.

Spiritual Energy fluctuated in the sky, like boiling water.

A tremendous pressure appeared out of nowhere above the middle-aged fatty and the others, as if an invisible giant hand had suddenly pressed down.

“Third Elder, please calm your anger!” The middle-aged fatty and the others pleaded in terror, continually begging for mercy.

“Do you know the significance of an Elixir Recipe to an Alchemist?

I’ll spare your life this time, but if you dare to say such words again, I will kill you on the spot!”

“Now get lost, and stop embarrassing yourself here!” The Third Elder flung his sleeve, sending the middle-aged man and the two Alchemists behind him flying.

Afterward, he turned his gaze towards Lin Xuan.
