98: Begin to accept the inheritance

"His name is Lu Xuan, and it seems he also goes by that title. Is there a problem?"

Bai Zhi nodded and inquired.

Chu Yuan's expression shifted slightly as he said, "To be frank, Senior Little Bai, rumors outside say that Pill Saint Senior's Dao of Alchemy is heaven-defying, and there is a Legacy left in this Secret Realm."

"I intend to learn Alchemy, which is why I came to this Secret Realm to try my luck."

"Just now, when I heard Senior Little Bai mention the surname Lu, I casually asked, but I never expected to actually stumble upon him."

Hearing this, Bai Zhi's eyes brightened slightly, and she narrowed them, saying, "You want to learn Alchemy? Do you have the talent for Alchemy?"

"Replying to Senior Little Bai, this Junior has never studied Alchemy, but I previously learned how to condense Pill Fire, so I should have the talent for it!"

As Chu Yuan spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed it slightly, causing a bright yellow Pill Fire to appear.

It was clearly a First-Grade Pill Fire!

Seeing this, Bai Zhi's eyes lit up, and she declared, "Follow me. I will give you a test. If you truly have that talent, I will give you Old Man Lu's Legacy!"

Hearing this, Chu Yuan's eyes shone, and he quickly followed her.

His intuition had always been accurate, and it told him that this white fox truly bore no ill will.

Although he didn't understand why a Yao Beast would bear no malice toward humans, who cared about the reason?

Furthermore, You Lian and the others hadn't held any malice toward him before, had they?

Very quickly.

Led by Bai Zhi, Chu Yuan arrived in a courtyard.

Bai Zhi raised her front paw and pointed to one of the rooms, saying, "That room contains the test set up by Old Man Lu. As long as you can pass the Sixth-Grade assessment, I will give you his Dao of Alchemy Legacy!"

"Thank you, Senior Little Bai!"

Chu Yuan nodded, and without a trace of doubt, pushed open the door and walked inside.

The main reason was that he hadn't sensed any danger!

Watching him enter the room, Bai Zhi's eyes brightened slightly, carrying a hint of anticipation.

As for Chu Yuan, in the blink of an eye, he arrived in a vast, white space.

He looked around but saw nothing, causing him to feel slightly surprised and doubtful.

So, how was this test supposed to begin?

Just as he was thinking this, a phantom Old Man appeared.

Chu Yuan looked up, his expression startled, and he quickly bowed, "Greetings, Pill Saint Senior!"

However, the Old Man appeared wooden, his gaze dull, and he spoke to himself:

"This space is My Inheritance Land. One day in the outside world is equivalent to one year here."

"Each opening lasts for ten days. How much can be obtained depends entirely on the successor's own Comprehension Ability."

"Furthermore, no item within the Inheritance Land may be taken out. I hope you govern yourself accordingly."

As the voice fell silent, the phantom disappeared, and a classical text landed in front of Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan reached out and took it; surprisingly, it was a physical object he could hold. But why did the other party say it couldn't be taken out?

He flipped it open and discovered that it contained various basic knowledge regarding the Dao of Alchemy.

He quickly flipped through it, reviewing all the knowledge.

Relying on his current Soul strength, it was no problem to memorize ninety-nine percent of the content, if not the entire thing.

The moment he finished flipping through the classical text and closed it, he saw that it immediately vanished.

Immediately afterward, a second volume appeared.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly. The other party only said it couldn't be taken out of this space, but they didn't say he couldn't copy it, right?

Thinking of this, he only hesitated for a moment before throwing the classical text into the primal origin space.

And quickly copied a volume.

He was just wondering what would happen if he didn't take it out when he saw the Inheritance Space begin to tremble slightly, and immediately afterward, a confining force appeared upon him.

Chu Yuan was startled and quickly took out the copy.

The moment the classical text appeared, the space stopped trembling, and the confining force on Chu Yuan suddenly vanished.

Seeing this, he seemed thoughtful.

The so-called 'cannot be taken out' means that anyone attempting to take it out will be confined here?

However... Chu Yuan glanced at the classical text in the primal origin space, and his expression couldn't help but shift slightly.

Based on the situation just now, copying actually only required an instant.

However, the spatial anomaly took half a breath of time, so this operation was feasible.

The corner of his mouth curved up slightly. He stopped thinking about it and began flipping through and studying the classical text in his hand.

The second classical text was a detailed explanation of Spirit Medicine below the Second Grade.

With the assistance of the primal divine crystal, everything felt like divine aid, and he finished studying it in no time.

This time, after he finished studying, he did not close it but instead flipped back to the first few pages.

He was verifying... Soon, he reached a conclusion: after opening the classical text, closing it would cause it to vanish.

If it was not closed, then it would not vanish.

As for whether an unclosed classical text not held in hand would disappear, that remained to be verified... A moment later, Chu Yuan copied and studied more than a dozen classical texts, all of which were various Alchemy insights regarding First-Grade Medicinal Pills.

Among them were also several methods and seals for condensing Pill Fire, and so on.

The moment he closed the classical text in his hand, the text vanished, but no new classical text appeared.

Just as Chu Yuan was feeling confused, he saw a Medicine Cauldron appear, and along with it, ten portions of different Spirit Medicine, and ten Pill Formulas.

Afterward, that voice came again.

"Study these ten First-Grade Pill Formulas. As long as you refine any one Low-Grade Medicinal Pill, you may continue to receive the Legacy."

Hearing this, Chu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly. Was this selecting a successor?

He didn't hesitate and copied all ten First-Grade Pill Formulas.

He didn't even spare the Medicine Cauldron and the ten portions of Spirit Medicine, copying them all.

Only then did he begin studying.

Soon, he completely mastered the contents of the ten Pill Formulas. One of them, called the Rejuvenation Pill, he had already mastered before.

The Rejuvenation Pill is used to recover from injuries. It has a good recovery effect on the injuries of Spiritual Enlightenment Realm Cultivators, but the effect is weakened by seventy percent for Spirit Absorption Realm Cultivators.

Others included things like the Aphrodisiac Powder, Qi and Blood Pill, and Detoxification Pill, and so on.

Having learned so much knowledge about the Dao of Alchemy, Chu Yuan felt an urge to try his hand at it.

In this situation, shouldn't he refine one batch?

Acting on his thought, Chu Yuan began cleaning the Medicine Cauldron and processing the medicinal ingredients for the Rejuvenation Pill.

A moment later.

All preparations were complete. He condensed the First-Grade Pill Fire and began Alchemy.

Thanks to his powerful Soul, Chu Yuan's control over the Alchemy process was extremely precise.

Before long.

He dispersed the Pill Fire, raised his hand, and drew out the contents of the Medicine Cauldron.

Ten round Medicinal Pills appeared in the air, emitting a faint medicinal fragrance.

Chu Yuan's eyes brightened slightly. "Three High-Grade, seven Mid-Grade. Is my efficiency this high?"

Theoretically, each batch of Medicinal Pills yields ten, and his first attempt at Alchemy resulted in such a good outcome. It seems he truly has a talent for Alchemy.

At this moment, that voice continued to speak.

"Passed!"

"You may continue to practice refining other Medicinal Pills, or you may continue to receive the Legacy."

As the voice fell, the ten Rejuvenation Pills vanished, and another classical text appeared.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan's mouth twitched slightly. They truly followed through on their word.

Afterward, his gaze turned toward the other Spirit Medicine.

"Since I can use free medicinal ingredients for practice, why shouldn't I?"

Having said that, he continued with Alchemy.

A long time later.

The remaining nine portions of Spirit Medicine were all refined into Medicinal Pills by him. Only once did he produce nine Medicinal Pills instead of ten.

Unfortunately, the highest grade he produced was only High-Grade; a Special-Grade Medicinal Pill never appeared.

As the ten portions of Spirit Medicine were used up, not only did the Medicinal Pills disappear, but even the Medicine Cauldron vanished.

Chu Yuan was already prepared for this.

He didn't dwell on it, continuing to copy the classical texts and continue studying.
