Starting From The Blood Lineage Genealogy To Build An Eternal Immortal Clan Chapter 360: High-Level Inheritance!

The trial concluded.

White light illuminated around Ye Fan and Xu Deyue before they vanished from where they stood.

The sudden teleportation left Ye Fan montarily unsteady on his feet.

By the ti his vision cleared, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar, enclosed space.

It was a modest stone chamber, roughly a hundred feet square and thirty feet high. Its furnishings were ancient and simple, yet every detail exuded an extraordinary aura.

The first thing that caught his eye was a bed of flawless, translucent white jade sitting right in the center of the room.

Even from dozens of feet away, he could feel the piercing, icy chill radiating from the jade bed.

"Could this be a Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade Bed?" he murmured.

Ye Fan stepped forward to touch it, surprised to find a hint of gentle warmth within the freezing surface.

This was the unique characteristic of the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade Bed. It possessed miraculous effects for refining spiritual qi and nourishing ridians and qi and blood. It was considered a peak Fourth-Tier heavenly material and earthly treasure.

'What a treasure! I am taking this,' Ye Fan thought to himself.

Imdiately after, he noticed an equally ancient stone bookshelf leaning against the wall next to the jade bed.

The items displayed on the shelves were not ordinary ancient classics, but objects shimring with various treasures' lights and emitting formidable auras.

There was a peculiar tal ingot faintly wreathed in the phantom image of a dragon and elephant.

Next to it sat a small, ancient pill furnace engraved with complex runes, along with several strange, deep crimson crystals that pulsed faintly like beating hearts.

There were also a few ancient scrolls made of a tough material that was neither tal nor leather.

Opposite the bookshelf was a heavy stone desk.

The tabletop was as smooth as a mirror and completely spotless. Only a single, ancient-styled dark silver storage ring rested quietly in its center.

"To think that this bookshelf and desk are both crafted from Fourth-Tier spirit wood. Is this the inheritance of an ancient Grand Powerful Cultivator?" he gasped.

Next, Ye Fan looked toward a portrait hanging on the smooth stone wall behind the bookshelf.

The background of the painting was the towering, pitch-black Little Cold Mountain.

In front of the mountain stood a middle-aged man with his hands clasped behind his back. He wore a simple gray Daoist robe, and though he was not tall, he stood as straight as a pine tree.

His facial features were ordinary, but his eyes were gentle and peaceful. Even from a re portrait, an aura of returning to original simplicity naturally flowed from him—a flawless, harmonious Dao Rhy of a perfect physical body.

This portrait seed to depict the forr master of this grotto-residence—the senior expert who had left behind this Body Cultivator inheritance.

As Ye Fan stared at the portrait, he suddenly felt his mind being drawn in.

It was as if he had been transported into the world within the painting.

The Dao Rhy of the ancient Little Cold Mountain crashed into his consciousness.

Then, the middle-aged Daoist in the gray robe suddenly turned and cast a single glance at him. Ye Fan's concentration shattered, and the illusion instantly ended.

"How terrifying!"

"What was that?!"

Ye Fan's face turned slightly pale, his mind still reeling from the shock.

Almost at the exact sa mont.

Xu Deyue experienced the exact sa thing as Ye Fan.

The layout of her grotto-residence was similar, but the items displayed on her bookshelf were Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice, Ice Soul Jade Marrow, and other top-tier ice-elent spirit materials.

The storage ring resting on her desk had an icy blue surface.

A mont later.

An ancient, deep voice slowly echoed through both grotto-residences simultaneously.

"Junior cultivators, your disposition, talent, strength, and opportunities are all top-tier. You are qualified to receive the high-level inheritance left behind by my master."

The voice paused, as if giving them ti to digest the information, before continuing:

"Bow three tis to the portrait. From then on, you shall be considered in-na disciples of my master. The rings on your desks contain the corresponding inheritances; you may take them for yourselves."

"Additionally, there are in-na disciple tokens. By activating these tokens, you can directly leave the secret realm without needing to use the entrance you forcibly opened.

You may also choose to cultivate in these grotto-residences for one month.

After one month, you will be automatically teleported out of the Little Cold Mountain grotto-residences."

"If one day your cultivation reaches the Soul Formation Stage, you may return to challenge the core inheritance.

If you pass the final test, you will obtain the entirety of the inheritance left by my master, take control of the core of this Cold Mountain Secret Realm, and beco the master of this grotto-heaven.

Only then will you truly inherit my master's Dao legacy!"

"I expect you... to cultivate diligently and never tarnish the prestigious na of my master, Shangren Hanshan!"

Without prior agreent, both of them turned toward the portrait of the middle-aged man in the gray robe standing with his hands behind his back. With solemn expressions, they respectfully bowed three tis.

Having received the inheritance of this place, it was only natural to show their gratitude.

Afterward, they began to bind the spatial rings to themselves.

The space inside the ring was incredibly vast, easily ten tis larger than a high-grade storage pouch.

Ye Fan obtained a porcelain bottle containing the heart's blood of a fire-attribute Soul Formation Stage Flood Dragon, which could be used to temper the physical body. There was also a bizarre spirit grass that resembled bone joints, and a bottle of milky-white liquid that appeared to be a body-tempering spiritual fluid.

Along with these were two cultivation thods: the "Body Refining Art" and the "Cold Mountain True Spirit Art".

The "Body Refining Art" was an ancient human body tempering thod. It was widely spread and could be practiced even by those without a Spirit Root, allowing one to reach a Fourth-Tier physical body at the highest level.

However, even under the superior conditions of the Ancient Era, those who could achieve a Fourth-Tier physical body were extrely rare.

As for the "Cold Mountain True Spirit Art", it involved lting down the blood of true spirits to temper the physical body. It even contained a secret thod for purifying true spirit blood from the bodies of powerful demonic beasts.

Unfortunately, this cultivation thod was only a fragnted volu, rely containing the path up to the Soul Formation Stage.

Following that, he inspected the items on the bookshelf.

He didn't recognize any of them, with the sole exception of the pill furnace, which was a high-grade magic treasure.

'This pill furnace is perfect to take back as a gift for Honored Master,' Ye Fan mused.

The corners of Ye Fan's mouth curled up slightly as he began to flip through the "Body Refining Art" and the "Cold Mountain True Spirit Art".

He was certain that Xu Deyue would do the sa as him and choose to cultivate in the grotto-residence for a month to enhance her strength.

After all, once they went outside, it was hard to say whether they would be targeted by others.

If they were, it was naturally safer to be as strong as possible.

A long while later.

Ye Fan decided against practicing these two body refining cultivation thods.

He felt that the "Brahma Sacred Body Art" seed far superior.

Although it was a top-tier body refining cultivation thod from the True Demon Realm, it didn't give off a sinister, demonic feeling at all. Instead, it aligned with the Great Dao of returning to original simplicity, making its adaptability much higher.

'Among the inherited items, I don't recognize the other two. I shouldn't ss with them recklessly. It's best to take them back and let Honored Master identify them.

'However, the grade of this Flood Dragon's heart blood is incredibly high. It should be beyond the Fourth-Tier.

'The heart's blood of a Soul Formation Stage Flood Dragon is absolutely an indispensable treasure for a Third-Tier Body Cultivator!

'I can circulate the "Brahma Sacred Body Art" and attempt to refine it to nourish my physical body.

'Still, even a single drop probably contains explosive energy. I should just extract a tiny trace to test it out first,' he concluded.

Ye Fan sat cross-legged on the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade Bed, his expression solemn and focused.

Suspended in the air in front of him was a bead of blood about the size of a longan fruit.

Its color was a swirling mix of gold and crimson, and a microscopic phantom image of a dragon could faintly be seen swimming within it.

Despite being just a single drop, it radiated a terrifyingly majestic surge of qi and blood along with an ancient dragon's might. Even the air in the room subtly warped around it.

'Such overbearing power,' he thought.

With a shift in his thoughts, his divine sense acted like the most precise carving knife, carefully peeling away a single thread of golden-crimson blood from the droplet.

"Go!"

Guided by his divine sense, the thread of blood plunged into his body.

In an instant, an indescribably scorching torrent exploded violently within him!

It was as if a frenzied dragon, imprisoned for ten thousand years, had invaded his ridians, rampaging recklessly with a berserk energy capable of tearing apart everything in its path and boiling the oceans!

Ye Fan's body convulsed violently. His skin instantly flushed a crimson-gold hue, his veins bulged like coiling horned dragons, and his bones emitted faint creaking sounds under the overwhelming strain.

Having prepared for this, he imdiately focused his mind and guarded his core.

The "Brahma Sacred Body Art" was pushed to its maximum limit!

Within his dantian, his qi and blood Golden Core spun frantically, radiating a brilliant golden light. A majestic wave of the Power of the Sacred Body surged toward his limbs and bones, doing its utmost to guide, bind, and refine the invading berserk energy.

"Refine!"

Ye Fan let out a low shout, exhaling jets of scalding white steam from his nose and mouth.

The Power of the Sacred Body clashed intensely with the Flood Dragon's blood energy, entangling and fusing together.

Every inch of his ridians, every fiber of his flesh, and even the deepest layers of his bone marrow were washed over by this berserk yet pure energy. They endured the agonizing pain of shattering and reconstruction in a profound physical transformation.

Minute black impurities were forced out onto the surface of his skin, only to be instantly vaporized by the boiling qi and blood.

The process was fraught with extre danger; the slightest misstep would result in shattered ridians and the total collapse of his physical body.

However, Ye Fan's willpower was like iron, and his cultivation thod was profoundly profound. He firmly maintained a shred of clarity in his mind, precisely controlling the rhythm of the refinent.

An unknown amount of ti passed before that single thread of blood was finally subdued and completely assimilated.

The crimson-gold radiance surrounding Ye Fan slowly receded, yet his aura had abruptly grown noticeably more robust. A hidden treasure light seed to flow just beneath his skin, and a sharp brilliance flashed whenever he opened his eyes.

Clearly, his physical strength had greatly benefited from the ordeal.

'As expected of a Soul Formation level treasure... Just a tiny trace has such miraculous effects,' he marveled inwardly.

Ye Fan gazed at the remaining heart's blood of the Soul Formation Stage Flood Dragon before returning it to the porcelain bottle and sealing it tightly.

After this round of refinent, he needed to rest and regulate his breathing for a few days to recover from the physical trauma.

Only then could he continue.

On the other side.

Xu Deyue had also obtained the Cold Light Liquid that Murong Yun had ntioned from her inheritance ring.

Aside from that, there was a copy of the "Cold Mountain Scripture".

"To think it's actually the 'Cold Mountain Scripture'," Murong Yun suddenly spoke up. "This is the cultivation thod that Shangren Hanshan created himself after achieving Great Accomplishnt in his power.

"It is a pity, however, that it is a fragnted piece, only detailing cultivation up to the peak of the Soul Formation Stage.

"Quickly, see what divine abilities are recorded inside. Does it contain the cultivation thod for Shangren Hanshan's famous Greater Divine Ability?"

Xu Deyue imdiately checked the contents.

Inside, there was indeed a cultivation thod for a technique called the "Great Profound Nether Ice Soul Cold Heaven Divine Light".

Even though it only contained the beginner-level cultivation thod, it was enough to make Murong Yun tremble with excitent.

"Yue'er, this is a true Greater Divine Ability! Even your master never managed to learn it back in the day. However, the difficulty of cultivating it is extrely high, particularly when it cos to comprehending its beginner True Intent.

"The difficulty is easily comparable to cultivating an ordinary divine ability all the way to the Perfected Realm.

"You can take your ti to comprehend it.

"And then there is this Dharma Idol. It is built upon a foundation of one type of profound nether divine light divine ability, two types of ice soul divine light divine abilities, and three types of cold heaven divine light divine abilities.

"It far surpasses my own Dharma Idol inheritance.

"Once you have cultivated your Vast Cold Sword Art to perfection, you must put all your effort into comprehending these six divine abilities.

"If you succeed, your achievents in the Nascent Soul Stage will far exceed mine!

"Even in the Ancient Era, you would absolutely be considered a prodigy, perhaps even ranking among the most monstrous geniuses."

Calming her emotions slightly, Murong Yun continued, "Starting now, I will teach you a cold path secret art. By using nine drops of Cold Light Liquid as a foundation, you can alter your physique and your cultivation foundation.

"This is the 'Supre Heaven-nding Foundation Technique'. The more precious the heavenly material and earthly treasure used as the foundation, the more pronounced its effects will be.

"The Cold Light Liquid is absolutely a cold path spiritual fluid comparable to the Sixth-Tier. The foundation molded and nded by nine drops of Cold Light Liquid will be more than enough to allow you to undergo a complete physical transformation."

"Thank you, Honored Master," Xu Deyue replied.

"There is no need for thanks. We share the sa fate; the further you go on your path, the more it benefits as well."

The corners of Xu Deyue's lips curled into a slight smile.

Murong Yun imdiately used a sound transmission to impart the secret art to her.

Xu Deyue cald her heart and focused her mind. She repeatedly deduced the profound and obscure essential formulas of the "Supre Heaven-nding Foundation Technique" secret thod within her sea of consciousness until she understood them completely.

This art was incredibly profound.

Its purpose was to trace back to the source, nding any flaws and imperfections in a cultivator's foundation to pave the way for scaling the higher Great Dao in the future.

A person could only perform it once in their entire lifeti.

Fully prepared.

Xu Deyue sat upright with her legs crossed on the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade Bed, gently raising her delicate hands.

Nine drops of Cold Light Liquid—which had condensed the essence of Cold Mountain and looked like liquid sapphires—slowly rose from the jade bottle, hovering about a foot in front of her.

They radiated an icy Dao Rhy that was pure to the extre, alongside a majestic surge of life force.

"The Great Dao has no form, yet it births Heaven and Earth; the Great Dao has no emotions, yet it moves the sun and moon; the Great Dao has no na, yet it nurtures all living things..."

Xu Deyue silently recited the opening lines of the "Scripture of Purity and Tranquility" in her mind. Her spirit beca clear and empty, washing away all distracting thoughts.

Imdiately following that, she followed the thods of the "Supre Heaven-nding Foundation Technique" and began to guide the nine drops of Cold Light Liquid.

The first drop of Cold Light Liquid transford into an incredibly fine, azure-blue cold stream that slowly seeped into the ancestral aperture between her eyebrows.

It silently rged into her sea of consciousness, nourishing the origin of her divine soul and washing away the dust on her divine sense.

The second and third drops of Cold Light Liquid respectively turned into two cold streams that followed specific ridians, injecting themselves into her heart aperture and kidney aperture.

The heart belonged to fire, while the kidneys belonged to water. The goal was to harmonize the yin and yang, and the Five Elents within the human body.

As the icy qi entered her heart, it did not suppress the heart fire. Instead, utilizing the "downward moistening" nature of water, it washed away the dry, violent, and superficial impurities within the heart fire, causing it to beco condensed and pure.

The water that entered her kidneys, bolstered by the essence of the Cold Light Liquid, beca even more pristine and vast, nourishing her innate primordial essence.

In an instant, water and fire aided one another within Xu Deyue's body. The dragon and tiger converged, establishing a delicate balance that caused the circulation of her qi and blood to suddenly beco noticeably smoother.

The fourth to seventh drops of Cold Light Liquid simultaneously transford into four slightly thinner cold streams, pouring respectively into her liver, lungs, spleen, and the central yellow court.

These corresponded to wood, tal, earth, and the central hub that governed the middle burner.

Using the unique spiritual Dao Rhy of the Cold Light Liquid, they strengthened her foundational attributes, making them align far more closely with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

The eighth drop of Cold Light Liquid fell directly into her dantian's sea of qi.

This was where her magic power Golden Core was located—the absolute core of her cultivation foundation.

The Cold Light Liquid transford into a faint blue halo that gently wrapped around the Golden Core without eroding it.

Instead, in a profoundly mystical manner, it resonated and blended with the Golden Core's inherent icy magic power.

The Dao markings on the surface of the Golden Core seemingly beca much clearer and more dynamic.

As it rotated, the efficiency with which it absorbed and expelled spiritual qi, along with the purity of her magic power, both slowly improved at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye. Her foundation was solidified, and her sea of qi expanded.

The final, ninth drop of Cold Light Liquid suddenly dispersed. It transford into countless blue specks of light—finer than specks of dust—that evenly perated every inch of her flesh, blood, ridians, bones, and even the most microscopic parts of her body.

This embodied the concept of "encompassing the Six Harmonies, nding the cosmos," carrying out an all-encompassing sublimation of her foundation.

Three days and three nights passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Deyue's foundation was thoroughly sublimated.

With every movent she made, her temperant seed even more transcendent and otherworldly.

At this mont, her divine sense, the quality of her magic power, and the sheer volu of her magic power were in no way inferior to those of a Late-Stage Golden Core cultivator.

Strictly speaking, at this mont, she had practically beco a Late-Stage Golden Core cultivator.

Furthermore, her physique had subtly grown much tougher, rendering it comparable to a Tier 2 Physical Body.

"The Cold Light Liquid is precious. Every drop used is a drop lost forever, unless you can completely take control of this Cold Mountain Secret Realm in the future, which would grant you an endless supply.

"Now that your physique has undergone a physical transformation, your cultivation has reached the Third Layer of Golden Core, and your bloodline is at the peak of the seventh grade. Your cultivation path throughout the Golden Core Stage will be smooth sailing.

"Now is the perfect ti to comprehend the Vast Cold Sword Art.

"Perhaps in just a few days, you will be able to reach Minor Success in the divine ability."

"Yue'er understands," Xu Deyue replied.

Both Xu Deyue and Ye Fan continued to cultivate quietly in their respective grotto-residences.

anwhile.

Within Xu Chuan's sea of consciousness, the Clan Genealogy gently trembled.
