After Yan Ning was expelled from the black mist, his mind was still a little hazy. The scene of the mysterious power in the Inheritance Land guiding him through the Flame Void Law still echoed in his mind.
"Is this the secret of the Beast God Inheritance...?"
He lowered his head and looked at his palm. With a slight movement of his fingers, a wisp of crimson-gold flame appeared out of nowhere. The space around it seemed to twist faintly, as if it could be burned away at any moment.
"The Fire-Void Fusion Law really is profound!"
In that short while, he felt he had gained more than in all his years of cultivation.
A flicker of excitement crossed Yan Ning's eyes. He could clearly feel that his understanding of the Fire Void Law was several times deeper than before!
"I've fully received the Third Inheritance, but I'll need time to digest it if I want to completely comprehend it."
He wasted no time. His figure flashed and turned into a Flowing Light as he swiftly returned to his palace manor.
Inside the palace, Yan Ning sat cross-legged, surrounded by crimson-gold secret patterns of the Flame Law. The space throughout the cultivation room warped slightly from the heat.
"I gained so much from this inheritance!"
He closed his eyes and began to fully digest the mysteries of the Third Beast God Inheritance.
"The Fire-Void Fusion Law isn't simply a combination of fire and space. It's about making fire a part of space, and making space the vessel for fire..."
One secret pattern after another flowed around him. At times, they took the form of a roaring fire dragon; at others, they coalesced into spatial barriers. Then they fused together, forming an entirely new structure of the Fire Void Law.
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, a hundred years went by.
On this day, Yan Ning slowly opened his eyes. Deep in his pupils, two crimson-gold suns seemed to burn, and the surrounding void trembled faintly under his gaze.
"A hundred years of comprehending this—worth more than the previous few thousand!"
He rose to his feet, felt the surging power within him, and let the corners of his mouth lift slightly.
"And... my rate of comprehension seems much faster than before!"
Yan Ning thought it over and realized that ever since he had received the Fire-Void Fusion Law Talent by signing in at the Inheritance Land, he had found it incredibly easy to understand the Fire Void Law. Many things that had once seemed obscure and difficult now clicked as soon as he heard them explained!
"So this is the difference talent makes?"
He had cultivated the path of fire and void before, but had relied mostly on his own insight. Now, it felt as if he had been born suited to this path!
"At this rate, it might not be long before I completely comprehend the Third Inheritance!"
A flicker of anticipation crossed Yan Ning's eyes, but he soon calmed down.
If he could continue, then receiving the inheritance once more would surely make his comprehension even faster.
He flipped his palm.
A Glory World Sub-Sensing Receiver appeared in his hand.
His consciousness entered the Glory World through the receiver.
Glory World.
Yan Ning suddenly appeared in the open-air plaza. In his hand was a black book.
He opened it.
It contained only two words: name.
"Name: Mo Yan."
He entered the name and continued reading.
The second page showed a map of the Glory World. The Glory World was very small.
There were only two places: the Glory Open-Air Plaza and the Battle World.
Anyone within the Ancestral God Secret Realm could connect to the Glory World.
The Glory World had a Glory Ranking and Glory Points. Glory Points could be exchanged for inheritance attempts.
He was currently at the bottom of the Third-Tier Ranking in the Glory World.
Record: 0 wins, 0 losses.
As soon as Yan Ning appeared in the Glory World, several people nearby immediately turned to look at him.
"Is that... Demon Flame King?"
"It really is him! The Hong Alliance's Demon Flame King!"
Several Hong Alliance Sealed Kings on the open-air plaza lit up and quickly headed over to him.
One of them, a human Sealed King dressed in Silver Battle Armor, smiled and clasped his hands in greeting.
"Demon Flame King, I didn't expect to see you in the Glory World too!"
Yan Ning looked up and recognized him—Silver Edge King, a rather famous King-Peak powerhouse in the Hong Alliance.
"Silver Edge King."
Yan Ning gave a slight nod in greeting.
Another Special Lifeform, shrouded in cyan flames, came over as well and said in a hoarse voice, "Demon Flame King, I heard you caused quite a stir at the Treasure Land?"
Yan Ning raised an eyebrow and replied blandly, "I was just taking a look around."
"Hahaha!"
Silver Edge King laughed heartily.
"There aren't many on Redbud Island who can make Black Prison Venerable suffer. Demon Flame King, you certainly live up to your reputation! That guy has really made a fool of himself this time!"
The other Hong Alliance members nearby chimed in, their words full of admiration. After all, throughout the entire Primal Universe, there were only a handful who could suppress a Universe Venerable while being a Sealed King!
However, not everyone looked kindly on Yan Ning.
"Hmph. He was just relying on his massive divine body."
A cold voice came from the side.
Yan Ning turned to look. A Mechanical Clan powerhouse, its entire body as translucent as purple crystal, was watching him coldly, data-like streams of light flickering in its eyes.
"Amethyst King!"
Silver Edge King's expression changed slightly. He lowered his voice and said, "A Sealed King Invincible from the Mechanical Clan. They say his fighting strength is close to that of a Universe Venerable."
Yan Ning remained impassive and simply met the other's gaze.
Amethyst King sneered. "Demon Flame King, the Glory World isn't a place where you can rely on the size of your divine body. If you've got the guts, come to the Battle World and fight me!"
The open-air plaza fell silent in an instant. Everyone watched, holding their breath.
Yan Ning's lips curved slightly. "Sure."
"But..."
He opened the black book in his hand, revealing the Glory Points section: 10 points.
"I don't have any Glory Points yet."
Amethyst King scoffed. "So you're broke."
With that, he turned and left. A burst of laughter rose from the Mechanical Clan's side.
Yan Ning didn't care. He simply looked at Silver Edge King. "How do you earn Glory Points?"
Silver Edge King quickly explained, "You can earn Glory Points by winning battles."
Yan Ning nodded, already making plans.
He opened the Glory World's battle application list and froze.
"What's this...?"
The list was packed with challenge requests, so dense they nearly overflowed the screen. The number had reached several hundred thousand!
"So many people want to challenge me?"
Yan Ning's lips lifted slightly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.
He casually opened several applications.
"Looks like the news that I've come to the Ancestral God Sect, and that I clashed with Black Prison Venerable at the Treasure Land, has already spread."
Yan Ning understood. Some challengers wanted to make a name for themselves by stepping on him, some simply wanted to beat him up, and others just wanted to test his strength.
"Since you're all so enthusiastic..."
He tapped the screen and filtered for several challenges with the highest stakes.
"Accept them all!"
"Battle World. Teleport!"
Boom!
Yan Ning's figure appeared in an immense starry battlefield.
Across from him, Amethyst King had been waiting for some time. Its body, made up of countless purple crystals, gleamed with a cold light beneath the stars.
"Demon Flame King, you'll regret this."
Amethyst King's voice was cold.
"The Glory World has no divine body advantage. Here, you're sure to lose!"
Yan Ning didn't answer. He simply raised his right hand slowly.
"Fire-Void Fusion Law!"
"Rise!"
Rumble!
