Chapter 455: Chapter 0455 – Dan King’s Apprentice
Chapter 0455 – Dan King's Apprentice . . .
Apparently, the old man appeared to have already foreseen Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue's arrival. Therefore, he wasn't taken by surprise a bit. Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue, on the other hand, could not comprehend as to why there was someone here, in this enclosed space for many years?
At first, Hua Xiangyue thought that this old man was the Dan King Li Tianjun. However, Chen Xiang knew the Li Tianjun had already gone to the Heavenly Realm. Even Wu Canghong knew him.
"Who are you?" asked Chen Xiang, vigilance clearly written on his face. He and Hua Xiangyue just couldn't see through this old man's strength.
The elderly was wearing an old and worn dress. Nonetheless, he was dressed very neatly. Also, there was an amiable smile on his face as he replied, "I am someone who has been waiting for you!" You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
Only at this time did Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue came to notice that the place which was full of spirit herbs was protected by an array, and a very powerful one at that.
Deep as the herb garden under the earth was, this place was just like a mysterious realm; one could see the blue sky.
"Why have you been waiting for us here?" asked Chen Xiang, once more.
"Since the time this herb garden was built, I have been waiting for you! Right, this herb garden was built by my teacher. I have been looking after it for a very long time, I have already forgotten as to how many years had passed," said the old man, a smile still on his face.
Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue were shocked, once more. To their surprise, this old man was Dan King Li Tianjun's apprentice.
"No need to worry, you can get these herbs, however, you have to pass the test!" the old man stated.
Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue glanced at each other momentarily before Chen Xiang asked, "What test?"
Noticing that Chen Xiang and Hua Xiangyue were tightly holding each other's hand, the old man asked doubtfully, "Are you husband and wife? Or brother and sisters? The gap between your strength is too big! Only if the man is stronger than the woman, it's justifiable!"
"Hua Xiangyue!"
Li Baojun continued, "Don't worry, I won't ask you to compete with me in refining Heaven-level dan. Refining that kind of dan depends a lot on luck. Furthermore, we can't see your level using that kind of competition. What's more, it needs a lot of time and wastes far too many herbs."
"Senior Li, I don't want to say this but that map was found by me! I think both of us should be tested! I have also learned alchemy for ten years," stated Chen Xiang.
Li Baojun simply had not expected Chen Xiang, this little rascal to compete in alchemy. He could see that Chen Xiang was very young, and very weak as well. According to his estimation, Chen Xiang should be thirty to forty years old, and definitely, nowhere good in alchemy.
Hua Xiangyue had discovered that Li Baojun was underestimating Chen Xiang and was also secretly dissatisfied with him. She very much admired Chen Xiang's alchemy. If it was a competition of refining low-level dan, she would candidly admit defeat.
"Indeed, it was him who brought me with him, if we got this herb garden, whether he shares with me or not completely depends on his mood!" Hua Xiangyue said, a smile on her lips.
Li Baojun furrowed his white brows. He felt that this world has changed too much. To his surprise, an ant-like kid could order a woman who was extremely good, strength wise and alchemy wise, both. Furthermore, this woman was still as beautiful as a flower, as heavenly as a fairy. He could not help but think that there was something wrong with Hua Xiangyue's head.
Nonetheless, Li Baojun was a principled man. The herb garden had to be handed out. But only those who could pass the test would have the qualifications to have this herb garden.
"Very well, I am a bit reluctant but I will allow you two to compete with me, I alone will compete with you two! If you can't defeat me, you don't deserve to have this herb garden!" said Li Baojun.
There were many spirit herbs in the herb garden. The highest ranked were high-grade earth-level herbs, and the lowest level of herbs were still for refining True Elemental Dan, White Jade Dan, and other similar dans. Furthermore, there were also herbs for refining Building Foundation Dan, Five Elements True Elemental Dan, Life Elemental Dan, and many other low-grade profound-level dans. There were also some herbs for middle-grade and high-grade profound-level dans, but not much.
"Don't worry, the competition will be very fair! If you won two out of three games, then, victory will be yours. The side which won two rounds first would be the winner! Kid, what is the highest level of dan you can refine?" Li Baojun asked.
Chen Xiang replied, "Low-grade profound-level!"
Li Baojun was stupefied. From the beginning, he believed that what Chen Xiang could refine at most was high-grade spirit-level dan. But he didn't expect him to enter this level at his age. Of course, it was not that such people didn't exist, it was just that they were very rare.
In this huge Mortal Martial World, there weren't many people who could refine low-grade profound-level dan at Chen Xiang's age.
"Wait, I just thought of a better way to compete, it will guarantee the fairness, and at the same time, it will allow us to display our alchemy level!" stated Li Baojun.
