The old man seemed to have known that Shen Xiang and the others were coming, so he was not surprised at all. Instead, Shen Xiang and Huahangyue were puzzled as to why there was a person here after all these years of being closed off.

Huahangyue's first thought was that the old man might be the Alchemy King Li Tianjun. However, Shen Xiang knew that Li Tianjun had already gone to the Heaven Realm, and Wu Changhong was still there when he met him.

"Who are you" Shen Xiang asked, his face filled with vigilance as he couldn't tell the old man's strength. The old man wore an old white robe, neatly dressed and with a peaceful smile on his face as he said, "I'm waiting for you people!"

Then, Shen Xiang and Huahangyue noticed that the entire area full of medicinal herbs was enclosed by an array formation, which was quite a powerful one. Although the medicine garden was deep underground, it seemed like an ancient realm here because they could see the blue sky.

"Why are you waiting for us here" Shen Xiang asked again.

"The moment this medicine garden was established, I've been waiting for you here!" The old man smiled. "By the way, this medicine garden was built by my master, and I've been watching over it for quite some time. I don't remember how many years have passed."

Shen Xiang and Huahangyue were surprised again, realizing that the old man was actually the disciple of the Alchemy King Li Tianjun.

"The old man doesn't need to worry, you guys can get those medicinal herbs as long as you pass the test!" said the old man.

Shen Xiang and Huahangyue exchanged glances, with Shen Xiang asking, "What kind of test"

The old man saw the intimate way Shen Xiang and Huahangyue were holding hands and asked suspiciously, "Are you husband and wife or siblings There's such a big difference in strength! If the man is stronger than the woman, I can understand!"

Shen Xiang smiled slightly, "Yes, we're husband and wife!"

"Haha, don't fool me old man, even though I haven't been out for many years, the world shouldn't have changed so much!" The old man shook his head with a smile.

Huahangyue gave Shen Xiang an icy look, let go of his hand, and said, "I'm just friends with him! If it's too dangerous, we won't do it!"

"Not dangerous at all. It's just a competition to test your skills in alchemy using the medicinal herbs here, and I decide what medicine you're going to make. If you pass my test, that proves your qualification for this medicine garden, it's not unreasonable right"

The old man looked at Huahangyue and said, Huahangyue's fiery aura spread out, making him secretly surprised. He could tell that Huahangyue was a powerful fire control expert and had formidable strength, definitely a high-ranking alchemist.

On the other hand, Shen Xiang's weak strength made him completely ignored by the old man, which greatly annoyed Shen Xiang.

"Fine! But don't make the rules too strict, you can't ask me to make divine medicines!" said Huahangyue.

The old man nodded and asked, "What's the highest medicine you can make"

"Hunan Medicine!" Huahangyue said coolly. This made Shen Xiang and the old man shocked, originally thinking that Huahangyue's limit should be Hunxian Medicine, but she could make Hunnan Medicine, which was the realm of an alchemy master.

Going beyond that would be Alchemy King, which was the limit of medicine masters in the mortal world. Although alchemy masters were worse than Alchemy King, they were very uncommon even in the mortal world. Even if you could make Heaven Medicine, you couldn't be called an alchemy master.

More importantly, Huahangyue was a woman, and she was strong in terms of strength, looking young and beautiful with great potential.

"Okay, I'll set up the rules for you to test your skill in making Hunnan Medicine. Making this kind of medicine requires great luck, and it's hard to judge your level by comparing them. It takes a lot of time and wastes medicinal materials."

"Elder Li, I won't lie to you, the map was mine! Both of us should receive a test. Boy, I've studied alchemy techniques for more than ten years," said Shen Xiang.

The old man didn't want to compete in alchemy with Shen Xiang, who seemed young and weak. He estimated that Shen Xiang's age should be around thirty, and his skills in alchemy would probably not be much better.

Huahangyue noticed that the old man looked down on Shen Xiang and secretly felt annoyed for him. She was very impressed with his skills in alchemy, especially if it were a comparison of lower-grade medicines, she would be willing to admit defeat.

"Surely it was him who brought me here, if you get this medicine garden, he decides whether or not to give it to you," said Huahangyue with a smile.

The old man frowned and thought that the world must have changed, such a weak boy could command a woman strong in medicine, and this woman was beautiful like a flower, heavenly fair. He felt that Huahangyue's brain might be wronged.

The old man was still very principled, the medicine garden would have to be handed over, but only those who passed a test could qualify.

"Alright then, I'll let you both compete against me, one on one! If you still can't beat me, then you don't deserve this medicine garden," said the old man.

There were quite a few medicinal herbs in the medicine garden, with the highest grade being Heavenly Medicine-grade Upper Tier and the lowest being True Essence Medicine. There were also materials for making Foundation Establishment Medicine, Five Elements True Essence Medicine, and Life Essence Medicine, among others. There were also some Heavenly Medicine-grade Middle Tier and Upper Tier, but not many.

"The rules are fair, don't worry! It's a three out of five win condition. The team that wins two matches first is the winner! Boy, what's the highest medicine you can make" asked the old man.

Shen Xiang replied, "Heavenly Medicine-grade Lower Tier!"

The old man was shocked. He originally thought Shen Xiang could only make Spiritual Medicine-grade Upper Tier at most, but he was able to step into the Heavenly Medicine-grade Lower Tier at such a young age. Of course, there were some people like him, but they were very rare.

The entire mortal world was so vast that few people could produce Heavenly Medicine-grade Lower Tier medicine at this age.

"I'll think of a better way to test fairness while making sure both sides can showcase their alchemy skills!" said the old man.and she wasn't sure if she could beat him."I admit killing you is hard, but capturing you is simple! Only by taking you down can I rest assured Fairy Xian and Yu Lan won't be disturbed," Shen Xiang fe...
