Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1480: Chapter 1477: You’ve Struck Gold

As the deepest Earth Immortal Realm Alchemy Grandmaster in the Underground City, Han Hexiang’s abilities are widely acknowledged.

When Lu Shuling took out that Taiching Divine Pill.

He was deeply shocked by the elixir before him.

Although this elixir didn’t appear perfect to him.

He could easily refine it himself.

But.

A Cultivator in the Earth Immortal Realm being able to refine a five-pattern Taiching Divine Pill still made him feel astounded and incredulous.

Lu Shuling’s face showed a faint smile, as if the other’s shocked expression was within her expectations. She smiled and said, ”If Senior Han doesn’t believe it, you can let Young Master Xu refine one for you.”

Han Hexiang snapped back to reality, and his eyes fixed on Xu Wendong with an obvious increase in interest: ”Friend Xu, would you mind refining a batch of elixirs again?”

He was very curious as to how Xu Wendong, with his Earth Immortal Realm cultivation level, managed to refine the Taiching Divine Pill.

Because.

When he was in the Earth Immortal Realm, he was unable to refine an elixir of that caliber.

Xu Wendong replied courteously, ”This is a task that should be done by the younger generation.”

He understood.

To join the Alchemy Hall, he must display his abilities.

”Then let’s begin!” Han Hexiang was full of anticipation.

Xu Wendong responded with an ’Mm’ and immediately sat cross-legged under the pavilion, raising his hand to reveal the Golden Crow Furnace in his palm, emitting an ancient and mysterious aura.

”Hmm?”

Upon seeing the Golden Crow Furnace, a hint of surprise flashed in Han Hexiang’s eyes, and a tidal wave surged in his heart.

He clearly did not expect to see such a treasure in Xu Wendong’s possession.

After all.

As an Alchemy Grandmaster, he knew that there are a few ancient yet powerful pill furnaces in the Three Realms.

The Golden Crow Furnace is one of them.

However.

Even seeing Xu Wendong wield the Golden Crow Furnace, Han Hexiang could hardly comprehend how Xu Wendong, with only an Earth Immortal Realm cultivation, could refine a third-level Immortal Pill.

Though using the Golden Crow Furnace can greatly increase the success rate of forming an elixir.

Still...

Xu Wendong’s realm is simply too weak!

Just as Han Hexiang’s face was full of doubt, a faint flame appeared in Xu Wendong’s palm.

In an instant.

The air seemed to ignite, and an astonishing heat quickly spread around.

”Goodness, it’s Tao Fire?”

Han Hexiang’s pupils showed undeniable shock.

As if he had seen a ghost.

To know that even some notables in the Immortal Realm have yet to understand Dao Law.

Yet Xu Wendong, this Cultivator, has mastered Tao Fire.

At the same time.

Han Hexiang also understood why Xu Wendong was able to refine a third-level Immortal Pill.

With a top-tier pill furnace like the Golden Crow Furnace and added Tao Fire, refining a third-level Immortal Pill, what difficulty would it pose?

Without thinking further.

Han Hexiang raised his hand and formed a barrier to encompass Xu Wendong, preventing the high temperatures emitted by Tao Fire from burning the surrounding herbs, as these were his treasures!

”Lu Family girl, you’ve picked up a treasure!” Han Hexiang looked at Lu Shuling, his face bearing a meaningful smile: ”If I’m not mistaken, Friend Xu should hail from the Mortal World.”

Lu Shuling’s face showed confusion, ”Mortal World?”

Han Hexiang nodded slightly, ”The Mortal World is just a general term. Generally, we refer to the Mortal World as a plane called the Cultivation World. There, only human Cultivators reside.”

”But in fact, the true Mortal World is a plane with ancient civilizations.”

”The Divine Enthronement battles played out on that plane.”

Lu Shuling continued, ”Then what is the difference between the Mortal World and the Cultivation World?”

”The differences are quite substantial!” Han Hexiang’s eyes were profound, ”Emperor Pangu cleaved through chaos there, transforming into mountains. That is also the origin land of Taoist Sect.”

”Whether it’s the Immortal Realm or the Netherworld, they all revolve around the Mortal World.”

Lu Shuling frowned, ”Though Immortals and mortals differ, does it matter if Young Master Xu comes from the Mortal World?”

Han Hexiang laughed and shook his head, ”Silly girl, have you forgotten what I said earlier? The Divine Enthronement battle took place in the Mortal World!”

Lu Shuling: ”Then what?”

Han Hexiang replied, ”Can Immortals become gods?”

Lu Shuling shook her head, ”Of course not.”

Gods are beings transcending Immortals, able to escape the five phases, possessing eternal lifespans, and their power can hardly be matched, even by the peak Immortals.

Han Hexiang looked at Xu Wendong, his eyes gleaming with excitement, ”Yet back then, all the gods in the heavens were merely mortals who became deities.”

”If you were to forcibly link them to Friend Xu, it would be... they all come from the Origin Land.”

Upon hearing this.

Lu Shuling suddenly felt a chill on her scalp.

At this moment.

She vaguely guessed what Han Hexiang wanted to convey.

Her heart couldn’t help but race, her breathing became heavier, ”Senior, are you suggesting Young Master Xu has the potential for deityhood?”

Han Hexiang murmured, ”He hails from that ancient plane, mastered Tao Fire, and the Golden Crow Furnace. Without a doubt, he’s blessed with luck; such a person, deityhood is perhaps not his endpoint!”

Lu Shuling instinctively swallowed a gulp, her eyes full of deep astonishment.

Deityhood is not Xu Wendong’s endpoint?

Does that mean he can become a saint?

”Lu Family girl, you should get along well with him; there’s no shortage of benefits for you in the future.” At this, Han Hexiang paused, his eyes showing a meaningful glow, ”After all, you have already received benefits from Friend Xu.”

”Er...” Lu Shuling looked dazed, not knowing what benefits Han Hexiang spoke of.

She then thought about her breakthrough.

A shiver ran down her spine.

Lu Shuling’s face blushed slightly, ”Senior, you mean my breakthrough was related to Young Master Xu?”

”I did not say your breakthrough was related to him!” Han Hexiang laughed heartily.

Lu Shuling’s face felt burning hot, like she was breathing fire.

Though Han Hexiang did not specify this matter.

She had a foreboding.

Her deviation followed by accidental gains was likely due to dual cultivation with Xu Wendong.

Time passed.

In the blink of an eye, an hour and a half had gone by.

Xu Wendong’s hands made spell-incantations, while sounds emanated from the pill furnace: crackles and pops, and a fragrance wafted through the air.

Meanwhile.

Concentrated nature’s spiritual energy gathered from all directions, resembling a pure white cloud, exuding vigorous vitality.

Finally.

The spiritual energy, under Xu Wendong’s control, entered the pill furnace, merging into the elixir.

The sounds from the pill furnace gradually settled into silence.

”Success.” Xu Wendong’s face showed a faint smile, as he opened the pill furnace, encasing the elixir with soul force, which flew out into Han Hexiang and Lu Shuling’s view.

Han Hexiang looked at Xu Wendong in a daze: ”Why did the previous elixir have five pill patterns, and now this one has nine?”
