Starting with the creation of the Immortal Clan through the compilation of the family genealogy.

Chapter 192 The Land of Inheritance: Obtaining the Inheritance of the Profound Core True Person!
Meng Yanqing and Luo Qianning steadied themselves almost simultaneously and looked around warily.

They found themselves in a strange space, completely different from the bronze hall they had been in before.

There are no walls, no dome; as far as the eye can see, there is only an endless void flowing with soft starlight.

Beneath our feet lies a strange, mirror-like surface, reflecting the twinkling stars, as if we were walking on a galaxy.

Countless tiny orbs of light, each radiating a different color, floated in the void. Upon closer inspection, each orb contained the lifelike phantom of a spiritual herb.
The rich, almost overwhelming aroma of herbs and the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth filled every inch of space, making one feel their cultivation subtly increasing with every breath.

"Is this the true place where the Mysterious Core True Person inherited his legacy?"

Luo Qianning sighed softly, her gaze deeply drawn to the clusters of spiritual herbs, treasures that alchemists dreamed of.

Meng Yanqing, on the other hand, was more focused on the space itself. He could feel the complete isolation between this place and the outside world, as well as a mysterious and ancient atmosphere, yet also a sense of loneliness.

Just then, the void in front of the two rippled slightly, and countless starlight and spiritual herb halos seemed to be summoned, slowly converging and finally condensing into a figure with an ethereal and otherworldly air.

The figure wore a simple gray Taoist robe, had white hair, a kind face, and deep eyes that seemed to contain the starry universe. He exuded an aura that blended seamlessly with the space around him.

Although he was just a phantom, he possessed the aura of a master that was truly captivating.

It was the master of this place, the Mysterious Elixir Immortal!

"The latecomers".

The illusory figure of Xuan Dan Zhenren spoke slowly, his voice calm yet seemingly resonating deep within the souls of the two, carrying the vicissitudes of time.

"You have all come here and passed the many tests I have set, which shows that you are all people with great fortune and strong character."

His gaze first fell on Luo Qianning, filled with undisguised admiration. He nodded slightly, especially when he sensed the pure aura of the newly refined sixth-grade "Qianyuan Creation Pill" on Luo Qianning.

Then, he looked at Meng Yanqing, who, despite not being an expert in alchemy, had fought bravely and protected the area with an iron will, and his eyes showed approval.

"A thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye."

The illusory figure of the Mysterious Elixir Master sighed softly, his tone tinged with reminiscence and emotion, and began to calmly recount his life.

"I, Xuan Dan, was born into humble circumstances and grew up in an ordinary family."

My family was poor when I was young, and we often didn't have enough to eat, let alone any chance of becoming a deity.

When his spiritual root was tested, his aptitude was only below average, and his spiritual root was mottled. He was rejected by many immortal sects, who treated him like trash.

His words were calm, yet they made Meng Yanqing and Luo Qianning feel as if they were seeing a thin young man standing in front of the towering gate of the Immortal Sect, facing a cold rejection, but with an indomitable flame burning in his eyes.

"However, my heart is drawn to the Dao, and I yearn for immortality."

Since there was no sect to rely on, we had to fend for ourselves!

He resolutely bid farewell to his parents and neighbors, carrying only a rudimentary Qi-cultivation manual he had acquired by chance, and became a destitute rogue cultivator, embarking on this thorny path of seeking the Dao.

"When resources are scarce, they go deep into the mountains to hunt low-level monsters and gather rare spiritual herbs."

Without anyone to guide them, they explored on their own, learning from each failure and comprehending the true meaning of Taoism on the brink of life and death.

By sheer chance, he acquired half of a fragmented alchemical text, and from then on, he forged an inextricable bond with the Dao of alchemy.

"Without anyone to teach me, I used myself as a furnace, and all things as materials, trying again and again, exploding in the furnace time and time again, and narrowly escaping death countless times."

Ultimately, through gradual accumulation and extraordinary perseverance, he forged his own path in the Dao of Alchemy! From then on, he became unstoppable in the Dao of Alchemy! The words of the Mysterious Alchemist gradually took on a hint of heroic spirit, as if facing a million men, but then that heroic spirit turned into a faint regret and sadness.

"Through the Dao of Alchemy, I have overcome numerous obstacles and condensed my Golden Core until I reached the state of Golden Core perfection. It seems that I am only one step away from the legendary Nascent Soul Dao, condensing my Nascent Soul and achieving the position of True Monarch."

He paused, and the illusory figure's gaze seemed to pierce through endless time and space, returning to the very point that had ultimately brought him to his knees.

"But for me at that time, this last step was like an insurmountable chasm, seemingly unattainable."

His voice lowered, carrying an indescribable sense of loneliness.

"Resources, cultivation techniques, opportunities, and even a wisp of luck in the dark. As a rogue cultivator, one's foundation is ultimately shallow."

No matter how hard I tried, how much effort I poured into it, how many methods I attempted, how many ancient texts I consulted, or even how I risked venturing into perilous places in search of opportunity, I still could not open that door.

Human strength has its limits, but the great way is ultimately impartial.

Xuan Dan Zhenren finally let out a long sigh, a sigh that contained too much resentment, helplessness, and relief.

He recounted his eventful yet regretful life in a calm and understated manner, without much embellishment, yet he moved Meng Yanqing and Luo Qianning deeply.

They seemed to have witnessed firsthand how a rogue cultivator of humble origins, through sheer perseverance and wisdom, climbed step by step to the level of a Golden Core Grandmaster, only to ultimately fall at the final hurdle on the path to even greater heights.

The path of cultivating immortality requires not only contending with fate, luck, and resources from all things, but also enduring hardships and loneliness that are difficult to comprehend without experiencing it firsthand.

The illusory figure of Xuan Dan Zhenren regained his clarity and calmness, and looked at Luo Qianning with a gratified smile on his face.

“Young man, your talent and spirituality in alchemy are unparalleled in my life.”

His character is also extraordinary; even in dire circumstances, he can remain true to himself and refine the ultimate elixir.

I entrust my legacy to you; you have truly found the right person, and I am deeply gratified!

He announced loudly, his voice carrying a formal tone: "Luo Qianning, you have passed my final trial and shall inherit my mantle and receive my complete legacy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the illusory figure of Xuan Dan Zhenren waved his sleeve.

In an instant, starlight shone brightly, and the fragrance of medicine surged forth!
Ten storage rings, simple in design yet radiating astonishing spiritual energy, slowly emerged from the void, like ten dazzling stars, hovering in front of Luo Qianning.

"These ten storage rings are inside."

"It records all the top-level elixir formulas that I created and collected throughout my life, encompassing concepts from beginner to sixth grade, and even some that touch the threshold of seventh grade."

It contains all my insights and understanding of alchemy, including the complete inheritance of the 'fire control technique'.

It also contains most of the wealth I accumulated during my lifetime, including rare spiritual herbs, alchemy materials, and some cultivation resources.

I hope you will use it wisely, lest my alchemical path be tarnished. I also hope you can go further on this path and glimpse the scenery that I have never seen!

The illusory figure of the Mysterious Elixir Master pointed out.

Looking at the ten heavy storage rings in front of her, Luo Qianning's breathing became rapid.

These are not just ten rings; they represent the culmination of a lifetime's work and dedication from an ancient alchemy master who had achieved the Golden Core stage!

Its value is immeasurable!
