ninth-order demon beast like Xiongba, easily covered in the blink of an eye. But at this moment, Xiongba acted as if he had been stung by a swarm of bees. Ten or so sword qi slashed towards him from...At first, Xing Yi didn't harbor the same suspicions towards Lu Xiaottian as Xuan Hu Zun did. After all, Lu Xiaottian had only reached the rank of a third-grade Dan Saint for a few years. The time he dedicated to refining pills simply couldn't compare with Kuang Ziyou's. The last time Lu Xiaottian pushed forward a word was when he was forced into Luo Yang Prison by Hong Hao Heavenly Court. Back then, there wasn't any mention of Lu Xiaottian breaking through to the rank of a fourth-grade Dan Saint.

If Lü Xiaottian had already been a fourth-rank Dan Saint at that time, the Heavenly Pill Palace in Honghao Heaven Court would certainly not have stood idly by as the Heavenly Execution Palace took such drastic measures against him. The difference between third and fourth rank represents completely different meanings and statuses.

That is to say, according to Xing Yichi's speculation, even if Lu Xiaitian breaks through to the fourth rank of Dan Sheng, the time until his breakthrough will not be too long. Even in this case, the other party still surpasses Xing Yichi

Even though the previous battle between them in Xingyun City ended with Kuang Ziyou's defeat, the gap between them was still incredibly small. Looking at Kuang Ziyou's reaction now, Xing Yi felt a little disbelief at what he was seeing.

"Thanks to the power struggles between the major celestial palaces in Honghào Heavenly Court, otherwise, Eastern Daoist friend would have been a huge threat to my Yu Xuan Heavenly Court. Since Eastern Daoist friend is now within my Yu Xuan Heavenly Court, he must be kept within our domain." Kuang Ziyou watched as the continuously merging elixir droplets fell into the cauldron. As time passed, the Wanhua Qingyuan Dan inside gradually took shape. Kuang Ziyou couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"Fellow Daoist Kuang is right, the Heavenly Court of Hong Hao foolishly surrendered such a talent. Indeed it is idiotic to the extreme. However, if not so, how could our Jade Xuan Heavenly Court welcome such a great talent" Xing Yi's eyes flickered. Even as an outsider, he could sense that the elixir in the alchemy furnace was about to be refined. To be able to advance to the fourth rank of Dan Saint in such a short time and make Kuang Ziyou so convinced, the other party's attainments in alchemy must be extraordinary."

What's even more remarkable is that Lu Xiaoteng's cultivation base is equally outstanding. At the same level, it's hard to find a match for him. Although cultivation level can't completely determine a Dan Saint's alchemy prowess, if they progress simultaneously, it can entirely decide whether a Dan Saint can go further.

The top cultivators of each of the Four Great Heavenly Palaces, those who have mastered alchemy to the highest degree, are also almost all cultivators of profound cultivation. The Honghao Heavenly Palace has a cultivator at the level of a化道人 (a being similar to a 化道人 exists in other heavenly palaces), and their status surpasses that of ordinary Golden Immortals. Besides their identity as Alchemists Saints, they are both equally powerful, granting them combat power that ordinary Golden Immortals cannot match. Otherwise, how could they strike fear into the hearts of others

Given that Lu Xiaotian already possesses such remarkable skills in alchemy and cultivation, he is bound to surpass Kuang Ziyou in the future.

Just as Xing Yi and Kuang Ziyou's faces changed, the alchemy furnace let out a soft hum. The lid jumped up, and a low-grade Wanhua Qingyuan Pill flew into Lu Xiaoteng's hand.

Lu Xia Tian looked at the pill in his hand, still not quite satisfied. However, with the immortal herbs he had on hand, being able to refine a fourth-grade pill was barely acceptable.

Lu Xiaoteng looked at the pill in his hand, when several claps of applause rang out from outside. "It's been many years, Daoist Dongfang. Your alchemy has reached such an astonishing level, it truly is breathtaking."

Kwong Ziyou strode in, a broad smile on his face while his expression was quite excited.

“So it’s the City Lord Xing and Daoist Kuang, good to see you both well.” Lu Xiaoxiao put away his pills and smiled, “The things here are all prepared by Daoist Xuanhu, there isn't much to entertain the two of you, please sit down.”

"Master Xuanhu is currently in the main hall, waiting for me. Since Master Dongfang Dan Sheng has already successfully refined the elixir, why don't we go there together for a sit" Xing Yi said slowly.

"I'm still injured and just spent a lot of energy refining the elixir, so I won't go." Lu Xia Tian declined.

Xing Yi frowned slightly, just about to say something more, when Kuang Ziyou stepped forward and blocked him. "Lord City Master, you should go find Daoist Xuanhu and the others," he said. "As for me and Daoist Dongfang, we're old acquaintances. Besides, discussing matters of alchemy wouldn't interest you."

"Well then." Since Kuang Ziyou had said so, Xing Yichi didn't want to stay any longer. However, as he left, Xing Yichi still kept a wisp of his attention outside, just in case something happened here. Even though Lu Xiaotien only seemed to have the strength of a celestial fairy and was seriously injured, Xing Yichi didn't dare be careless when it came to Kuang Ziyou's safety.

Lu Xiaitian saw Xing Yichi's doubts and knew the other party's avatar was staying here. He wasn't going to point it out, though. After all, he could understand Xing Yichi's precautions. After all, a fourth-grade Dan Saint was so important to a fairy city that even an ordinary Jinxian-level powerhouse couldn't fully replace him.

"I heard that my esteemed friend from the East had arrived in Shuici City. At first, I wasn't sure if it was true, but after several confirmations, I hurried over as fast as I could. To witness your alchemical process firsthand is truly worthwhile!" Kuang Ziyou laughed.

"With the arrival of Daoist Kuang, I finally have someone to speak with. However, Daoist Kuang is likely not here simply to chat." Lu Xiaodao said.

“This time I came here just to reminisce with you and discuss the Dao of Dan. I heard that Fellow Daoist Dongfang was injured, and the Wanhua Qingyuand Pill ultimately fell short in quality. This is an Extreme Yang Moon Tide Hundred Breath Pill I personally refined, it should be of some help to your injuries.” Kuang Youzi directly took out a bottle of pill and handed it to Lu Xiaoteng.

"Then I won't be polite." Right now, Lu Xia Tian did need a pill better than the Wan Hua Qing Yuan Dan. Although he still looked capable of wielding celestial-level strength, he could refine pills and move freely, in reality, his injuries were far more serious than imagined. A bloody space power constantly blocked and segmented his internal organs, forcing him to circulate his Xian yuan again and again to unclog them. However, it wouldn't take long before they were blocked once more. If he couldn't treat his internal injuries to a certain extent in one go, he would experience endless cycles of blockage and unclogging. Besides self-treatment, he needed even higher-grade pills as assistance.

“What are your plans after this, fellow cultivator from the East” Seeing Lu Xia Tian happily put away the pills, Kuang Zi You let out a breath of relief. He was afraid that Lu Xia Tian would be too polite to him. Although Kuang Zi You looked approachable, he wasn't without airs. However, in Kuang Zi You’s eyes, Lu Xia Tian, besides his talent, was also someone who was devoted to the Dao of Alchemy, someone he could categorize with himself.
