Emperor Luan!
When the man revealed his identity, Song Xiao, Fang Yan, Peng Shiwu, and Tong Xu all showed a look of shock in their eyes.
Recorded in ancient books.
This is a figure from High Antiquity times who, though not the Human Ancestor, is revered by countless people Dao Ancestor.
It can be said that Emperor Luan's realm and the degree to which he is recognized are second only to those four Human Ancestor!
Back then, Emperor Luan single-handedly gathered all the Daoist traditions in the world, and Daoist practices were revered and cultivated by countless people. This is a completely different situation from the present, where almost no one practices Daoist practices.
This is why Emperor Luan was not the Human Ancestor but was called the Dao Ancestor.
To their surprise, Dao Ancestor Emperor Luan would appear here, and was about to pass on his entire lineage to Ning Chenxin?
Doesn't this mean that Ning Chenxin has a chance to become the next Dao Ancestor?
However, just when they thought Ning Chenxin would eagerly accept it...
Ning Chenxin smiled faintly and shook her head, saying, "I cannot accept the inheritance from my senior."
Song Xiao's eyes widened, his mouth gaped open, and he looked as if he had seen a ghost in disbelief.
Fang Yan and the other two also looked on with surprise and doubt.
Jiang Qingluan was even more puzzled and somewhat baffled.
Only Jin Wujin, Ji Qianyao nodded slightly.
Although they didn't know how much difference there was between Senior Lu and Dao Ancestor Emperor Luan, they figured it wouldn't be too great.
After all, in their understanding, Senior Lu was an existence that surpassed the God Lord Realm.
Receiving too much traditional knowledge without mastering it leads to Lower Vehicle.
Dao Ancestor Emperor Luan, however, was not surprised. Instead, his eyes shone with a bright light. He looked at Ning Chenxin expectantly and asked, "Can you tell me why?"
Ning Chenxin chuckled softly, her smile as gentle as a breeze or soft clouds, seemingly casual yet touching the heart.
"Everyone has a slightly different view of the Tao. Just like the ancient books I've read over the years, there are some Daoist practices recorded in them that I don't actually agree with. So all I can do is take the essence and discard the dross that I find offensive."
The more he listened, the more dazzling the light became in the eyes of Dao Ancestor Emperor Luan.
It was merely a remnant soul, and shouldn't have generated much emotional fluctuation. However, Ye Qiubai, Hong Ying, Mu Fusheng, and the others around could clearly sense that Emperor Luan's remnant soul was beginning to fluctuate, as if it were extremely restless.
Is it excitement?
Ning Chenxin wasn't finished speaking. She continued with a faint smile, "My path is my path, and other people's paths are their paths. Senior Emperor Luan's path is also Senior Emperor Luan's own path."
"The Dao cannot be definitively defined. If one follows in the footsteps of predecessors step by step, at best one can only stand shoulder to shoulder with their shadows, unable to surpass them."
Upon hearing this...
Emperor Luan Emperor Luan into excited laughter, and the entire Ancient Battlefield seemed to tremble under his laughter!
"What a wonderful statement about the Daoist arts being impossible to define! Excellent! Excellent! Excellent indeed! I must say, if this were our time, I would definitely have taken you as my last disciple and nurtured you with all my might."
"However, it's fortunate you weren't born in that era, otherwise I feel my title of Dao Ancestor would have changed hands."
Although Emperor Luan's words sounded like a joke.
But no one present thought it was just a joke.
A mere remnant soul, yet he reached such heights in his lifetime.
I say what I think, without any pretense or concealment. I speak my mind freely.
Unexpectedly, Ning Chenxin not only gained the approval of Dao Ancestor Emperor Luan, but also received his inheritance.
Now, Emperor Luan even says that Ning Chenxin can surpass him.
This is how the Dao Ancestor described him.
Ning Chenxin's future achievements are sure to be remarkable...
Song Xiao watched this scene with a smile, thinking to himself.
The Divine Lord has truly befriended an extraordinary person...
Ji Qianyao, however, found it quite normal and was not surprised at all.
After all, he's Senior Lu's disciple...
Fang Yan to the side, shifted his gaze, seemingly lost in thought.
Upon hearing Emperor Luan's words, Ning Chenxin bowed slightly and said, "Senior is too kind."
Emperor Luan waved his hand dismissively, "I will only praise those in the world who are worthy of praise!"
"However, since you don't need my inheritance, I naturally won't force you to inherit it." Emperor Luan smiled and opened his hand, where tiny specks of starlight began to gather, gradually forming the shape of a book!
Emperor Luan looked at the book in his hand with an almost adoring gaze, gently stroking the cover with his hand, making a rustling sound.
"You just said, 'Take the essence and discard the dross'? That's a good point. Since you don't need my inheritance, I naturally don't want it to be lost." At this point, Emperor Luan's expression turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "After all, after you, I'm afraid there will be no younger generation that I can take seriously."
Ning Chenxin bowed again.
"This book contains my lifelong understanding of the Dao. Although you don't need its inheritance, I'll still leave you some things." Emperor Luan reached out, and the book in his hand floated to Ning Chenxin's front.
After watching Ning Chenxin carefully accept it, Emperor Luan smiled and said, "Just use your understanding of the Dao to extract the essence from this."
Receiving a lineage and imparting some insights are two completely different things in the world of cultivation.
Accepting a legacy is more like Ye Qiubai's situation. In addition to receiving the master's Cultivation Method and weapons, he also receives some power of Concept or the Power of Dao Law. Furthermore, he will continue to cultivate and use it.
Accepting insights is like Ning Chenxin, seeking common ground while respecting differences, extracting the essence and then using it for one's own benefit.
There is a fundamental difference between the two.
Ning Chenxin held the book in both hands, looking at Emperor Luan with a serious expression, and solemnly said, "I will study it carefully and cherish it. If I meet a suitable person, I will pass on the Dao techniques of my predecessors."
Hearing Ning Chenxin's words.
Emperor Luan laughed loudly, "Good! With you saying that, I can rest assured."
After finishing speaking, his remnant soul merged into the chessboard, leaving behind only his words.
"This Heavenly Dao Chessboard is now yours. You can study it; after all, even I haven't fully grasped its secrets yet."
"May the lineage of our teachings be gloriously restored in your hands; I entrust it to you..."
At this point, Emperor Luan fell silent.
Ning Chenxin bowed before the Heavenly Dao Chessboard and said solemnly, " Chenxin will not fail your trust!"
This is not only a promise to Emperor Luan, but also a promise to myself!
Immediately after the Heavenly Dao Chessboard was put away, the cliff began to shake violently!
Ye Qiubai and the others' expressions changed drastically.
If someone were to fall from here, they would be severely injured, if not killed!
Suddenly, Mu Fusheng's brows relaxed, and he roared, "The air ban is lifted!"
The group then quickly took to the air and landed smoothly on the ground.
On the other hand, there is the forbidden area of the Xin Clan in the Wilderness Realm.
A naked woman slowly emerged from the pool of blood...
