Painting of the Nine Immortals Chapter 575

Inside the stone room, Xiao Cui stood where she was as she was shocked to a point of no retreat .

Only after a long while, did she recollect herself . A complex mix of emotions flashed across her face . She has worked here at this store for many years . In the beginning, many people have attempted to purchase items, but as time went on, nobody dared to enter anymore .

The reason being all those spiritual medicine being far too rare that nobody can recognize them .

Yet before her eyes, Ling Xian very easily and subtly described the 43 spiritual medicines . How could Xiao Cui not be astounded? There were 43 different kinds, even if he had recognized one of them, he would've passed the first test .

Therefore, she exhaled deeply and said, "Of course you passed . "

"Very good . Then I can start the second test then?" Ling Xian focused on the spiritual medicine before him, and his eyes flickered expectantly .

All the spiritual medicine before him were great medicine . Out of them, 30 were first ranked spiritual medicines, and 13 were rare miraculous medicines . They were all extremely rare medicine, and all alchemists would be amazed before them .

Ling Xian was no exception . Therefore, he decided to buy out all the spiritual medicine before him . After all, to him, the upcoming test won't be difficult .

Noticing the fire in his eyes, Xiao Cui frowned, "It seems like you want to buy all the spiritual medicine here?"

"That's right . " Ling Xian admitted openly and smiled . "All of these are very rare finds . If I miss them today, I might not ever find them again in the future . "

"You sure are optimistic . It's just that the second test is not the same as the first . People die from it . " Xiao Cui hissed, and her serious tone sounded like a warning .

"I know . " Ling Xian softly beamed . The second test was called, "we don't sell anything you cannot consume", which meant he had to eat a small portion of all the spiritual medicine before he can continue onto the third test .

This test may sound very easy, like as long as you eat some of it, you will pass . However, all of these medicines here were poisonous . Not just a little toxic, but extremely .

In other words, the second test asks the purchaser to consume poison!

Don't forget, Ling Xian had already made it clear that all of these spiritual medicines were aggressively toxic . Even for a completion leveled cultivator, it would be impossible for them to fend off the toxic effects .

"You obviously know that all these medicines here are poisonous and yet you still want to try for the second test?" Xiao Cui frowned deeply and said, "Should I call you courageous or should I call you dumb for overestimating yourself?"

"Whatever you want . Once reality proves itself, you will understand it . " Ling Xian's expression was calm, and it disallowed any doubt .

"It seems like you are determined to try it . " Xiao Cui sighed, her face made it seem like she didn't want this to happen .

She was very aware of just how strong the poison in these spiritual medicines was and knew that Ling Xian would not be able to survive it, even if he was a completion leveled cultivator .

"That's right . You just need to answer me whether or not I can get my attempt now . " Ling Xian softly grinned . Even though everything before him was poisonous grass, the value of it all was shocking .

Plus, all 43 of these spiritual medicine were extremely rare . If he misses his chance today, he won't ever see them again .

"You can, of course, attempt it . But I do not want a genius with such a bright path to die here today . " Xiao Cui sighed softly . She didn't think Ling Xian would still be alive after attempting the second test .

Just then, a voice as crisp as pearls hitting a metal plate rose . Just like music created in heaven, it brought much joy to people's hearts .

"Since this man here wants to attempt it, then there is no reason for my store to decline . "

Just then, a rather tall and slender woman dressed in black walked over from afar . Her features were delicate; her visage was detailed, she naturally had a feminine rhythm about her and an appeal that was magnetic .

"Mistress . " Xiao Cui called with respect .

"You must be the owner of the store 'Nothing is for Sale' . " Ling Xian grinned . He recognized this woman's voice . She had spoken before he stepped into the store .

"That's right . I am the owner of this store . My name is Hong Yan Xin . " The woman in black gracefully stepped over . The way she moved was alluring and sexy .

"What a great name . " Ling Xian complimented . He manipulated his Qi

secretly find out the woman's cultivation level .

What greeted him however, was a feeling of resistance, like trying to drag a bull through an ocean . He couldn't even get a little wave, let alone finding out Hong Yan Xin's cultivation level .

This made him frown, and a look of strangeness flashed across his eyes . There were two possible reasons why he couldn't find out the person's cultivation level . One, the person had capabilities that far surpassed his . Two, the person was wearing a mysterious treasure .

No matter what the real reason was, with Ling Xian's capabilities, he should be able to get a sense of her Qi at least . However, he couldn't sense it at all . This meant the woman had a cultivation level higher than his .

A lot higher .

"There is no need to waste your time and try to find out more about me . " Hong Yan Xin had a warm smile . Her gentle voice was, however, brimming with warning .

"The less you know, the better it is for you . "

Ling Xian's heart felt cold, and he respected the woman's high detection abilities . He smiled . "I am simply curious . There are no other intentions . "

"Good . " Hong Yan Xin softly grinned . She too, had a strange look in her eyes as she checked out Ling Xian .

She knew just how rare all these medicines were . Back in her days, to acquire all the information about them, she researched and sought after books for more than 30 years before she collected all the information she needed .

Yet Ling Xian, with such a young age, restated all their facts without the slightest deviation from the facts . How could she not be surprised?

As much as she was shocked, she also had a hunch about him . Therefore, she showed up in order to test out her theory .

"You are so young, yet you recognized all these strange medicines that even grandmasters do not know of . You actual cultivation itself is also rather impressive . I admire that . " Hong Yan Xin flashed a smile and once again checked out Ling Xian while blinking with caution .

"You have flattered me . "

Ling Xian chuckled and headed straight back to topic, "I wonder if I can give it a shot?"

"Like I stated, if you want to try it, I have no reason to reject you . "

Hong Yan Xin's brows fluttered slightly . She couldn't understand why a completion leveled cultivator would still have the guts to try this out even after knowing the medicines were poisonous .

Remember that even for someone as powerful as she was, she would get in deep trouble if she was touched by the poison . What could this completion leveled cultivator possibly do?

"Awesome . " Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction . He then marched forward and stopped before the Demonic Grass with Six Petals .

Then, right in front of Hong Yan Xin's widened eyes, he extended his right hand and placed a petal in his mouth .

The Demonic Grass with Six Petals was rare poison after all . Even one petal of it contained enough heavy poison to kill anyone . The moment it entered his mouth, it melted into toxins that rotted his organs .

"This sure is more ferocious than the Poisonous Dragon Scorpion . "

Ling Xian continued to frown . He wasn't exactly worried, however . He summoned the Flame of Purity . Silver and white flames boiled out of him and swallowed the toxins until not a single trace was left .

Since he consumed the petal, only three seconds had passed .

"Miss, I have now tasted the Demonic Grass with Six Petals . " Ling Xian said, completely unharmed .

"No wonder you dare to challenge the second rule . "

Hong Yan Xin's eyes were flashing with awe . She continued, "It only took you three seconds to neutralize the poison from the Demonic Grass with Six Petals . Bravo . "

As for Xiao Cui, she was now completely frozen, and her brain was blank .

She really didn't think that Ling Xian would dare to consume the poison . She also never expected him to be utterly unharmed .

It was the Demonic Grass with Six Petals! Even the completion leveled powerhouses cannot get rid of all the poison in a short period of time . Yet Ling Xian merely used three seconds to achieve that . How shocking was this?!

"Since I dared to try, of course, I had the confidence . " Ling Xian revealed a soft grin . He then placed the Demonic Grass to the side and picked up The Blue Clover .

Hong Yan Xin teasingly chuckled and looked at him expectantly .

"The Blue Clover . This miraculous medicine is mine . "

After a confident smile, Ling Xian took a leaf and placed it into his mouth . He quickly swirled around the Flame of Purity internally and immediately demolished the poison . Then, he felt too lazy to waste any more words, so he pushed it aside as well and picked up the third medicine .

Then, a shocking scene happened inside the stone room .

The fourth, the fifth, the sixth… after a short period of time, Ling Xian had consumed 13 different spiritual medicines . He digested every single poisonous medicine he consumed within three seconds then placed it aside .

Those that were placed aside were medicine he had tried and were unharmed by .

Ling Xian repeated these three actions . First, he would pick a portion of the medicine . Then, he would place it in his mouth . Finally, he would toss it aside .

These three actions added together never surpassed three seconds . From this, it became plain obvious how powerful the Flame of Purity was . It was no wonder it was known to be the nemesis of all poison!

This startled Xiao Cui and she could not comprehend what was happening before her .

Even Hong Yan Xin, this profound woman, was extremely astounded at this and could no longer keep her cool .

When Ling Xian consumed the first poisonous medicine and remained healthy, she was a little surprised . After it happened for a second time, she could still keep her calm . But now, he had done this over ten times and was still utterly unharmed . She was extremely shocked at this .

Remember that even someone as powerful as she was do not dare to consume this food so recklessly . What surprised her, even more, was the speed at which Ling Xian was going . To consume each medicine in less than three seconds was something that was almost unimaginable .

Though he had consumed only a small portion of each, even those of the original level cannot neutralize poison at such a fast speed without borrowing detoxing Dans!

Therefore, how could Hong Yan Xin not be surprised? As much as she was shocked, a guess appeared in her mind .

[For a completion leveled cultivator to not care about the poisonous effects of these medicines, the only explanation is that . ]

Hong Yan Xin's eyes sparkled . To confirm her guess, she whispered, "Mister, please pause for a second . "

Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned and tossed aside the poisonous medicine he just consumed .

Hong Yan Xin's eyelid jumped, and her heart ached . In such a short amount of time, Ling Xian had tried 24 spiritual medicines . In other words, as long as he brews medicinal Dans with a value equivalent to these spiritual medicines, he would be able to take away these medicines .

Based on what was happening, he had the ability to take away all 43 of these valuable and rare spiritual medicines!

To know that Hong Yan Xin spent much time and wealth to collect them . How could her heart not ache?

"Miss, I wonder why you asked me to pause? Could it be, you don't want me to attempt the tests anymore?" Ling Xian gently smiled and his sharp gaze pierced through Hong Yan Xin .
