dable. Even though Wang Pingyuan felt that the scar-faced man would not be a match for Xiao Yufei, he didn't think the defeat would come so quickly and completely.In his imagination, even if this scar...Chapter 774: Legacy (3)

Xiao Yu, although shocked in his heart, did not show any outward sign. He stepped forward and took blood from the tattoos on his body to smear over the Blood Flame pattern.

The moment Xiao Yu smeared the blood onto the pattern, the stone door before him suddenly emitted a hazy light. Those mysterious patterns slowly lit up one by one. Seeing this, Xiao Yu did not dare to delay and quickly circulated his mana into the Blood Flame pattern.

As soon as Xiao Yu channeled his mana in, the brilliance of the stone door became intense, barely avoiding being blindingly bright.

The old masters were suddenly alarmed upon seeing this. They had never seen such a sight before; however, recalling the flying swords they encountered some days ago, they felt relieved that these cultivators' mysterious methods indeed surpassed their comprehension.

"Rumble......" The blinding light on the door flickered and vanished, and then came thunderous sounds from where the stone door was. Accompanied by the noise, the grand entrance slowly creaked open.

Although the door had opened, a translucent light screen still remained above it. Xiao Yu reached out to touch this light screen; however, as soon as his hand touched it, it passed through as if nothing was there—like a puff of air.

The old masters watched the open stone door with excited expressions. A place sealed for over fifty years! Now that it had finally opened, how could they not be excited

Xiao Yu now brimmed with curiosity about this legacy site. Seeing as though the light screen did not exist, he said to these old masters, "Elders, I'll go in and take a look!"

"Mm-hmm, we'll come in with you too!" Li Su Jun spoke up after hearing Xiao Yu's words. At that time, their leader had never mentioned forbidding them from entering. Moreover, over the years they too wished to see what lay inside.

Just by looking at how this passage was done, one could tell that this legacy site wasn't simple; thus, their hearts were filled with curiosity regarding the legacy left behind by their leader.

"Alright!" Xiao Yu nodded upon hearing them. He knew what these old masters were thinking.

When Xiao Yu finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the light screen. As he approached it, the light screen seemed to vanish, allowing him to pass through without any obstruction.

"Hmm" Seeing Xiao Yu go in, the elders also approached the light screen. However, when Li Su Jun, who was at the front, got close to the light screen, he immediately let out a surprised exclamation. It turned out that as soon as he approached the light screen, it transformed into something akin to soft rubber candy; no matter how they tried, they could not break through this barrier and enter.

Seeing this situation, Li Su Jun mobilized his internal strength but found himself unable to breach the barrier regardless of his efforts. The other elders also attempted after seeing this but were similarly unable to pass through the light screen into the place of inheritance.

Xiao Yu, standing inside, pondered for a moment and seemed to understand what was going on. He then turned to the elders and said, "Esteemed elders, I believe this is some kind of magical array. Only the opener like myself can enter without being affected; others probably cannot."

"Hmm, very likely. It seems that our leader doesn’t want us in there," the elders nodded in agreement upon hearing Xiao Yu’s words.

"Xiao Yu, be careful. Although Brother won't harm us, who knows what changes might have occurred over these years" Seeing they couldn't enter, Li Su Jun and his group stopped worrying about it and began to give Xiao Yu some advice instead.

Xiao Yu nodded and turned around. He saw that this place was still a tunnel that should be part of the outer one but had been cut off by the stone door mentioned earlier.

As he walked through the darkened tunnel, Xiao Yu knew there would be no problem for cultivators to navigate it since only they were allowed in. After walking about ten meters, the tunnel finally came to an end, leading into a roughly 30-square-meter stone room made entirely of bluestone slabs. In this room was only one table constructed from three bluestone slabs and nothing else.

Xiao Yu walked towards the bluestone table where there were merely three items placed on it.

These items included two jade slips and a ring made of some unknown material. Xiao Yu picked up the ring for a closer look; it was neither gold nor jade but had an extremely ancient style, its composition even surpassing Zhong Kui's memory. He wondered what this mysterious item could be and why his grandfather’s leader left behind such a thing.

"Could this be some kind of token" Pondering the ring, Xiao Yu shook his head in thought.

Subsequently, Xiao Yu put down the ring and picked up the jade slip to look at it. He knew that in ancient times, information was stored on these jade slips. It seemed that these two jade slips contained the legacy left by their great-grandfather’s eldest brother.

After picking up the jade slip, Xiao Yu sat cross-legged on the ground and extended his consciousness into the interior of the jade slip. The moment Xiao Yu's consciousness touched the jade slip, an enormous amount of information flooded into his mind. However, after experiencing Zhong Kui’s memories, Xiao Yu’s mental strength was already incredibly formidable. This quantity of information did not pose any threat to him.

After all this information had completely entered his mind, Xiao Yu began to process it.

The minutes ticked by one after another; two hours passed quickly.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes. The moment he opened them, a trace of shock appeared on his face.

It took over twenty minutes for Xiao Yu to regain his composure. Even someone with such powerful mental strength as Xiao Yu could be so shocked; one can imagine how astonishing the content within the jade slip was.

The contents in this jade slip were about their great-grandfather’s eldest brother's origin, along with some methods he left behind. That ring was called a 'storage ring'—a space created inside the ring using tremendous magical power for storing items. The items stored within it included things Xiao Yu had gathered since arriving here and some small belongings of his own, intended as gifts for later generations of Xue Yan troops who were cultivators.

It was worth noting that Zhong Kui’s group also had storage items back then; however, they were small spaces opened using spells. These differed greatly from the space within this ring. Essentially, each method had its own advantages and disadvantages.

The thing that shocked Xiao Yu the most was regarding their great-grandfather's eldest brother's origin. His real name was long forgotten, but everyone in the cultivation world respectfully referred to him as Blood Flame Immortal. Blood Flame Immortal wasn’t originally from Earth; he was an extraterrestrial.

The content recorded by Blood Flame Immortal on the jade slip differed significantly from Xiao Yu’s understanding and even Zhong Kui's memories.

According to Zhong Kui's memories, in this world of secular society, there was a hidden cultivation realm also known as the Earth Deity Realm. This was the primary universe that existed after Pangu split the heavens and earth into three realms: the mortal world, heaven, and hell.

To enter the Earth Deity Realm or the cultivation realm, there were many entrances on Earth, but they were all controlled by major sects.

According to Zhong Kui's memory, the world of earthly immortals was created by the God Pangu using great divine power. This world exists in chaos, surrounded by chaotic energy; according to records, the earth immortal realm is like the yolk of an egg, while the surrounding chaotic universe is the white part of the egg. Beyond the chaotic universe remains unknown, and no one has ever ventured out from ancient times until now. Even celestial sages live at most within chaos.

However, Blood Flame's records differ; according to his jade slip records, the nearby starry sky around Earth is called the 'Forbidden Divine Domain,' a perilous place isolated from the world. Outside of this Forbidden Divine Domain lies a thriving realm of cultivation.

The cultivation realm is a world where cultivators and ordinary people live together, vast and boundless, composed of countless star regions, with most planets inhabited by both ordinary humans and cultivators.

As to the size of this cultivation realm, it's said that over billions of years, numerous pioneering cultivators have explored without finding its boundaries.

The Forbidden Divine Domain was discovered in a deserted area on the frontier of their exploration. The surrounding region is thin in spiritual energy, unsuitable for cultivation; hence, hardly anyone lives there. Moreover, the periphery outside this domain brims with danger; even celestial beings could be eradicated by the annihilation wind at its outermost layer. No one has entered it since its discovery.

Until a celestial being from Tiyan Sect, one of the major cultivation sects, explored the Forbidden Divine Domain using a powerful divine artifact, revealing its true nature to the outside world.

The celestial being said that not only is there no natural energy in this domain, but the rules within seem different from those on the exterior. The magical power possessed outside cannot be brought inside; thus, this celestial being nearly died in space after entering briefly and quickly exited again, turning it into a forbidden place for cultivators.

Blood Flame happened to explore a perilous area and inadvertently fell into a wormhole. He relied on his only divine artifact to preserve his life but was knocked unconscious by the spatial storm inside the wormhole. When he woke up, he found himself in this solar system during the planetary alignment of nine stars that seemed to form unique energy bringing him here.

Upon arriving here, he didn't expect there to be life, as Chinese people and those from Blood Flame’s world share similar skin color; thus, he remained in China. Moreover, Earth had spiritual energy, albeit very thin, which was enough for him to regain some strength.

Although the spiritual energy is extremely thin here, it's sufficient for a cultivator of the Great Perfection stage like him to be invincible on Earth. Back then, the strongest force on Earth was merely the Nanhui phase; hence, he couldn't enter legendary cultivation realms with his current power. Therefore, concerning those legendary earthly immortal realms and heavenly domains, he only knew from tales.

However, if these legends were true, cultivators here might not be inferior to those in other worlds. He felt that the Forbidden Divine Domain conceals some significant secret, but as his celestial ascension was imminent, there wasn't enough time for exploration.

When he sensed his impending ascension, an inner feeling emerged: staying on Earth would prevent him from ascending. Reluctantly, before leaving Earth with his only divine artifact in search of the path to ascension, he left a legacy here because he felt this was his sole opportunity to leave the Forbidden Divine Domain.'s going on" Upon seeing Xiao Yu hang up the call, Xiao Hongyang asked him. Since there were no patients left at Wan Sheng Hall now, everyone had heard when Xiao Yu made the phone call earlier. Moreov...
