Inside the Realm of Alchemy, before the Mount of a Thousand Medicine.

Everyone had a look of awe in their eyes as they all gawked at Ling Xian with disbelief written all over their faces.

He had melted the Fire Testing Stone?

What the actual f*ck! Do you have to be so insane!

Everyone was wide eyed and dumbfounded. The top figure, Cao Clan Leader, was no exception. It wasn’t that the others and him were not capable. It was that Ling Xian’s actions were far too shocking.

It should be noted that it was the extremely resistible Fire Testing Stone that completely rejects fire. Though the one given to these competitors were not of the highest quality, they weren’t stones that could be melted within seconds.

Yet Ling Xian used mere seconds to melt it. How could everyone not feel surprised?

“Uhm, I am sorry. I accidentally melted the Fire Testing Stone. Please, Cao Clan Leader, can I bug you for another one?” Ling Xian smiled awkwardly. He didn’t think the Fire Testing Stone would be so easy to melt. He merely unleashed his Flame of Purity and it turned into water.

What could he do? Even though the Fire Testing Stone was durable, the one given to him was not of the highest quality and naturally could not compete against the high temperature from the Flame of Purity. Plus, just three hours ago in the Forest of a Thousand Poison, he used this flame to its very extreme.

Therefore, he didn’t control the Flame of Purity that well and accidentally set it off at its highest temperature.

Because of this, he naturally melted the Fire Testing Stone by accident, which resulted in this embarrassing scene.

“That is not a big deal, I will just give you another one.” Cao Clan Leader collected himself and didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. He called out silently and a black stone immediately flew towards Ling Xian.

At this, the silver Flame of Purity arose from Ling Xian’s palm and attempted to shape this rock into a small sword.

The moment he set off the Flame of Purity, everyone once again fell into a state of shock. Waves of exclamations rumbled.

“Completely pure and flawless, clear and bright, is this the legendary Flame of Purity?”

“An appearance that is transparent like snow but possesses a high temperature like molten lava. This is without a doubt, the nemesis of all poisons, the Flame of Purity!”

“It is no wonder he melted the Fire Testing Stone in mere seconds. This stone may be durable against fire, but it is not of the highest quality and cannot defend against the legendary godly fire.”

Everyone’s shocking realizations came one after one. As genius alchemists, who didn’t have profound knowledge? Especially against the rare and highly desirable Godly Fire, they were truly knowledgeable and knew them like the back of their hands.

Therefore, the moment the silver flame was called out, they immediately recognized it to be the legendary Flame of Purity.

At the same time, they found the explanation for how Ling Xian was able to melt the Fire Testing Stone in a second. All of the godly fires in the world have unimaginable high temperatures. Unless it is the stone of the highest quality, there was no way it could resist.

Once they had these realizations, the way they looked at Ling Xian transformed. Those who had a good mentality were jealous. But those like Cao Yu, who has a weak mentally, filled up with greed.

To know that godly fires are extremely rare and difficult to measure in value. It was a treasure that all alchemists dreamt about. Though in terms of raw power, the Flame of Purity was not the strongest, its ability to defend against all poison was something all cultivators longed after.

Now that Ling Xian was showing off his Flame of Purity, how could everyone not feel jealous?

Even the Cao Clan Leader was jealous. Remembering that Ling Xian also possessed the Essence of Herbalism, he was even more jealous.

Sensing everyone’s envious gazes, Ling Xian softly grinned and he ignored them. However, just as he was about to focus on transforming this stone into a small sword, a calm but provoking voice rose.

“So what you have the godly fire? This round isn’t about the powerfulness of the flame, it’s about manipulation and control. If you have the godly fire but no meticulous control, you will be eliminated.”

Hong Zhuang Luo suddenly spoke and pointed her finger at Ling Xian.

Just then, Cao Yu spoke as well with a vile snicker, “That’s right. Just now you have proven our words. You melted the stone into water. How embarrassing.”

Pausing, he continued to mock, “Aye, I feel sorry for the Flame of Purity. Why did it have to choose such an owner? It is a shame.”

Just then, everyone silenced and the way they looked at Ling Xian was somewhat unfriendly.

Though Hong Zhuang Luo and Cao Yu had nothing nice to say, they weren’t wrong. This test tested the alchemist’s ability to control flames and spiritual energy. To have the godly fire but no skill to use it was worthless. The result of that incompatibility would be what just happened – the stone would be melted into water.

Ling Xian’s performance just now was watched by everyone. Even though they were impressed by his ability to melt the stone immediately, Yu Cao remained correct that it meant Ling Xian couldn’t control the Flame of Purity.

Therefore, all shock turned into disregard. However, due to his accomplishment in the first round, nobody dared to speak tauntingly.

“It looks like I didn’t teach you enough of a lesson in the last round.” Ling Xian’s eyes turned cold and he was somewhat angry.

Ignoring the others and focusing on Cao Yu, he didn’t learn from the last round and still dared to challenge him. Who wouldn’t be pissed off at this?

“Hehe, Ling Xian, your performance in the first round was heaven-defying. But this is the second round. Your performance just now proved that you will fail!”

Cao Yu coldly snickered. Other than disregard, anticipation was the only thing that remained in his eyes.

Hong Zhuang Luo didn’t say much. However, her beautiful eyes were flickering with anticipation. As for what they were anticipating, not much needed to be said. They were waiting for Ling Xian to fail.

“Fail?”

Ling Xian’s lips curled into a sarcastic smile. The reason why he melted the Fire Testing Stone wasn’t that he couldn’t control the Flame of Purity, it was because he was used to it performing at its highest level.

“Just you wait, you will once again be slapped by me.”

Just then, Ling Xian felt too lazy to pay any more attention to Cao Yu and Hong Zhuang Luo. Instead, he focused on the Fire Testing Stone.

“Hmmph, you are wrong. I am waiting for you to be stripped of all achievements.” Cao Yu coldly hissed. Then, he too calmed himself down and began to mold the Fire Testing Stone.

At this, Hong Zhuang Luo and the others began to do the same.

Honestly speaking, this test was extremely difficult. Not only did it require a powerful type of flame, but it also required compatible spiritual energy. There were only two possible results. One is that the stone is impossible to melt. Or two, like Ling Xian, it will be immediately melted into water.

However, he was merely careless. Now that he was once again calm, he instantly began to display a level of control that his peers could not live up to.

The Flame of Purity was beginning to hop and jump. Under the control of his spiritual energy, it tightly wrapped around the Fire Testing Stone. Whether it was the manipulation of the Flame or his spiritual energy, Ling Xian was performing with perfection.

Don’t forget, every single Dan he brewed had a rank higher than seven. If he didn’t have great control over all of this, how could he brew such high-quality Dans?

Therefore, after merely half an hour, the Fire Testing Stone and followed his wish and molded into a blade that was three inches long and one inch wide.

This meant Hong Zhuang Luo and Cao Yu will once again be slapped in the face by Ling Xian.
