“Really, of course it’s real! It’s just too magical!”
Tang Xinying exclaimed in disbelief.
The Qiankun Ring flashed with a blue light, and a blue mirror appeared out of thin air in Zhong Wu Shi Yao's jade hand. “Here, take a look for yourself.”
Zhong Wu Shi Yao took the mirror, gazing at her reflection, her joy overflowing as she danced with excitement. “Hehe, this is amazing! Tan Yun, you’re truly incredible!”
At that moment, Tang Xinying and Shen Subing looked at Zhong Wu Shi Yao with envy.
Tan Yun waved his hand, and eleven supreme youth-retaining sub-respect elixirs, floating above the Dan Ding, flew into his palm.
Tang Xinying and Shen Subing couldn't help but glance at Tan Yun, their expressions somewhat awkward, finding it hard to speak.
They both wanted to ask Tan Yun for one, but having just seen him take one for himself, they felt embarrassed to request one now.
Tan Yun caught the look in their eyes and handed one to Tang Xinying. "Chief Tang, this is a token of respect from your disciple."
"Thank you." Tang Xinying couldn't help but show a delighted expression like that of a young girl. After taking the elixir, she didn’t consume it immediately but treated it like a treasure, placing it into her Qiankun Ring.
"Chief, this one is for you." Tan Yun then handed another elixir to Shen Subing.
"Thank you." Shen Subing accepted the elixir and softly said, "Tan Yun, could you give me another one?"
"Of course." Tan Yun immediately handed Shen Subing another one, reminding her, "Chief, this elixir is only effective if taken once."
"Got it, I’ll remember." Shen Subing replied, putting the two supreme youth-retaining sub-respect elixirs into her Qiankun Ring.
Zhuge Yu, a young woman, really wanted to ask Tan Yun for one but knew well that he probably wouldn’t agree!
However, thinking that if she could just take one, she would transform from a mature woman into the appearance of a twenty-year-old, she couldn’t help but say, "Tan Yun, how about this? You give this palace master three elixirs, and in two months, you won’t have to fight to the death with Jade Whisper. I will allow your Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples to enter the Battlefield of the Gods for trials within a hundred years."
As soon as these words were spoken, Dantai Xuanzhong was about to remind Tan Yun to accept when Tan Yun spoke first, “It can be done, but only if you agree to a thousand years.”
"Hmph!" Zhuge Yu coldly snorted and said no more!
Seeing Tan Yun’s decisive rejection, Dantai Xuanzhong frowned but didn’t say anything.
At that moment, Murong Shishi looked at Zhong Wu Shi Yao, wishing she could ask Tan Yun for one, but she still remained silent.
Gongsun Ruoxi also looked at Zhong Wu Shi Yao with envy, lost in her thoughts...
"Sovereign, do you want one?" Tan Yun looked at Dantai Xuanzhong.
"No, as you said, this sovereign prefers someone more mature!" Dantai Xuanzhong joked for the first time, then glanced at Ru Yan Wu Ji, indifferent as he said, "Ru Yan Sovereign, it’s clear that Tan Yun has refined supreme sub-respect elixirs, and according to the rules of the alchemical refinement grand competition, he should receive 800 points."
Ru Yan Wu Ji sneered, "Sovereign Dantai, you’re mistaken. Just because Tan Yun claims to have refined supreme sub-respect elixirs, that’s only his word; how can it be trusted?"
"Exactly!" Zhuge Yu chimed in. "Moreover, since the highest grade of spiritual herb he chose is only a seventh-grade, we can be sure that the elixirs he refined are at most mid-grade spiritual elixirs!"
At this moment, the hundreds of elders from the Eternal Immortal Sect and the four elders from the divine soul celestial palace all agreed with Ru Yan Wu Ji and Zhuge Yu!
This wasn’t deliberate; it was just their perception that a seventh-grade spiritual herb couldn’t possibly produce a supreme sub-respect elixir, let alone a high-grade spiritual elixir!
Tan Yun then clasped his fists and said, "Dear seniors, it seems you may have a flawed understanding of alchemical arts."
