At the inner sect hall, a tension flares as the head disciple Lionel offers what he claims are premium elixirs said to aid immortality, but his claim is met with harsh criticism and skepticism. Another person challenges Lionel's reputation and the value of his elixirs, sparking a heated dispute over the art and legitimacy of elixir refining. The conversation reveals that the late emperor, once under a character’s command, has become a legend due to depleted spiritual energy. A proposal arises for Lionel to prove his skills by refining a divine-grade elixir, a task that could determine his standing in the sect, leaving his next move uncertain.
