taff woman's face suddenly turned cold, she rebuked with a voice, glanced at Yuanjie, and said, "Don't you go down and send this woman back, waiting for me to make a move""I'll take care of her, guara...Lu Xiaoxiao recalled the few prescriptions that Kuang Ziyou had provided. These prescriptions were not a secret to Yuxuan and Honghuo Heavenly Courts. After reaching a certain position as a third-rank Dan Saint, one could access them. Even if Lu Xiaoxiao stayed in Honghuo Heavenly Court for a little longer, he would also be able to obtain these prescriptions.

The higher Dan Sheng's rank, the more secrets of the Tiandan Palace he could access. At this time, Kuang Ziyou was just advancing this progress ahead of schedule. Although both sides of the celestial court had the pill recipes for these four immortal pills, they were not easy to refine.

Lu XiaTian had a premonition that the other party would definitely not let it go. After all, allowing him to leave YuXuan Heavenly Court unscathed was not something the current YuXuan Heavenly Court, who believed they were superior in everything, could easily accept. Even for the sake of face, they had to give the other party a taste of their power, otherwise, wouldn't it be showing weakness Even if some people didn't care about reputation, the voices advocating for defeating the opponent would definitely be in the majority.

It's just that the other party clearly understands that under his status as a third-grade Dan Saint, his primordial spirit is inevitably far stronger than an ordinary Xuanxian. It's also good to use the Dan Dou to damage a part of his divine sense first.

Lu Xiaotian naturally understood the other party's plan, but the other party still assessed Lu Xiaotian based on the strength of a third-grade alchemist. Considering the difficulty of refining these four kinds of elixir, just pondering the pharmacology of various celestial materials would require most of a third-grade alchemist's energy. It was definitely not something that could be accomplished in a short period of time.

Sān pǐn dān shèng wants to refine all four kinds of Xian Dan at the same time, most likely he will ruin the elixir and even find it difficult to continue refining in the furnace.

However, Kwong Zi-yu was unaware that Lu Xiaotien's apparent promotion to the Third Rank of the Dan Sheng wasn't recent. It had begun long before their time in Jiuyang City, even during his creation of the Qingxuan Xian Dan elixir and its Saint Spirit. In fact, he had possessed this level of skill even earlier than that.

After refining the Holy Spirit of the Dan Yao, he had a great advantage in Lu Xia Tian's progress in alchemy. Not only did it raise the success rate of Qing Xuan Xian Dan to an extremely high level, but also the success rate of refining other Xian Dans was significantly improved.

Even for an ordinary celestial immortal's soul, it would indeed take a lot of time to deduce those few prescriptions. Kuang Ziyou was empathetic and had not made a mistake; even Kuang Ziyou's willingness to accept Fu Lianyue's request and propose a pill duel to Lu Xiaoteng seemed to be carefully considered. However, Kuang Ziyou did not know that Lu Xiaoteng's soul was already powerful, approaching the level of a Golden Immortal. Deducing those few prescriptions would not take much time at all. Besides the potential influence on Lu Xiaoteng if he personally ascended the furnace to refine the pills, simply deducing the combinations of various celestial materials and the refining process, whether it took a little longer or a little shorter, made little difference for Lu Xiaoteng.

Although the other party had brought it up, and even though a timeframe for the competition hadn't been set, Lu Xiaoteng felt that the other party would still find a way to make the competition happen later. Even though the other party had carefully planned everything, Lu Xiaoteng was determined to refuse. He just felt that the time to agree to the competition wasn't right yet.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

After all, with just a few Heavenly Immortals like Fan Xianzhou, it's impossible for him to secure a truly fair testing environment. Having witnessed Chu Zhaoyang's methods, Lu Xiaoteng wouldn't believe that the other party would honestly compete against him. Chu Zhaoyang, and his companions, only desire victory. They don't care what means they use to achieve it, and may even take pleasure in it.

In the following days, besides his normal cultivation, Lu Xia Tian spent all his time deducing those few formulas. On the third day after deducing a few formulas, people from Xingyun City arrived.

This time, the other party invited them to meet was Xingyun City's lord, Xing Yichi. As an invitation from a Golden Immortal-level expert, Fan Xianzhou naturally did not dare to be presumptuous. He brought Lu Xiaoteng, Mu Xia, Nie Tianhou, Beichen Yue, Shi Mengjun and others to Xingyun City.

Just before entering the city, a green channel appeared in mid-air, stretching towards them, as if connecting different voids. Inside, an elegant woman in a purple dress sat gracefully on an ice seat. Four maids stood beside her, each holding a jade pipa. Along with the purple-clad woman, they descended from the channel and landed at the entrance where stars swirled.

"Though we follow the lead of our host, Jade Xuan Heaven Court's lack of courtesy is inexcusable. The city lord not personally greeting us shows a disregard for hospitality. If we are not treated with sufficient respect, those from Hong Hao Heaven Court will not deign to associate with such rude people."

That woman in the luxurious purple gown moved with a calm composure, not paying any attention to the large company of fairy soldiers at the entrance. Her voice, a soft murmur, faded into the magnificent swirling nebula and who knows where it went after that.

“Greetings, Lord of the Cold Chi Palace!” Bei Chen Yue and Shi Meng Jun’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise before quickly bowing to the woman in the purple dress along with Fan Xianzhou.

"Lian Yi," Mu Xia greeted Han Chi Palace Master happily. Fan Xianzhou let out a big sigh of relief, thinking to himself that he could finally relax. Ever since being targeted repeatedly by Chu Zhaoyang, he had been walking on eggshells on the warship, unsure what tricks the other party would use next.

"These days, I've caused you all quite a bit of trouble," the woman in purple robes said with a flick of her sleeve. "Come back with me. If Xingyi doesn't appear personally, none of you will be seen. When the Star Cloud Inn is fully open, I'll accompany the rest of you on your journey to the East Sea."

“Haha, I thought I was fast enough, but it seems the Lord of Hanchi Palace arrived before me. Unacceptable! The journey is farther for him, yet he arrived first. With the Lord of Hanchi Palace personally presiding over this situation, there's nothing more for me to say.” At that moment, a long laugh echoed through the air. A man in a blue robe with flowing beard rode the clouds and arrived.

After him, a white-haired elder with a solemn expression also appeared in sight. Lu Xiaottian glanced at Mu Xia, Beichen Yue and the others, feeling quite amazed in his heart. It seemed that no matter where he was, a strong background could play a huge role. Even someone like Nie Tianhou, whose status was slightly lower, couldn't summon a powerful Jinxian expert to preside over the situation so quickly.

"Master of the Hollow Cave," the man in blue and the woman in purple, along with Han Chi Palace Mistress, all slightly nodded in greeting to the old gentleman.

The old man let out a soft hum and looked in the direction of Xingyun City, “I didn’t expect you to come too. That’s good, it saves them from thinking that our Honghao Heavenly Court has no one. To actually use such underhanded tactics. Star One hesitates, when will this turtle-in-a-shell act end Chu Zhaoyang, a child like that, doesn't know any better. Things happening right under your nose, can't you even see them”

The voice of the Void Cave Master reverberated directly within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. At this time, even if Xing Yi, the city lord of Star Cloud City, wanted to hide like a turtle, it was impossible.

“This is a matter between juniors. Why does the Void Cave Master make such a fuss” A lukewarm voice rang out. Xing Yi, despite being a lord of a city, couldn't afford to stay silent at this point; he had to live up to his reputation.cted.Lu XiaTian's true cultivation was only that of a True Immortal, and he could only survive by merging with the essence of the Sha Shui. He hid within the Five Calamity Waves to protect himself or...
