Exploring the Pill Sage's Inheritance

Li Yunjing frowned as he looked at the Black-Yellow Origin Mark on his palm.

The Black-Yellow Origin Mark kept pulsating, but nothing happened, which puzzled Li Yunjing.

Fang Hexuan also noticed this anomaly and looked over curiously, but found nothing unusual either.

After a while, the Black-Yellow Origin Mark stopped pulsating.

"Yunjing, this..." Fang Hexuan looked at Li Yunjing, very curious about what had happened.

Li Yunjing shook his head. "I don't know why either. I guess it's because the Lord of the Ruins of Return was unwilling to leave any trace behind."

Li Yunjing could only think that the Lord of the Ruins of Return was unwilling to be sealed again, so he wanted to break free.

However, the sealing power was too strong, so it could only make the Black-Yellow Mark pulsate, but could not shake the seal in the slightest.

Li Yunjing put away the Black-Yellow Origin Mark.

He then took out the map that the Nine Sages had given him.

"Grandmaster Fang, you should heal your injuries first. I'll study this map," Li Yunjing said to Fang Hexuan.

Fang Hexuan nodded, then took out some pills and sat down to begin healing.

Li Yunjing also sat down and carefully studied the map in his hand.

This map has a name on it: Myriad Spirits Ruins of Return.

This looks like the map of the Myriad Spirits Ruins of Return.

The document marks nine locations, each representing a treasure left behind by one of the nine saints who appeared earlier.

Li Yunjing silently memorized the nine locations.

Next, he plans to explore these nine locations and obtain the relevant inheritances.

At the same time, I also went to look for the Myriad Spirits Crystal Core.

Otherwise, you'll be trapped here for the rest of your life.

Li Yunjing put away the map, planning to wait until Fang Hexuan and the others finished healing before setting off.

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared next to Li Yunjing.

"Young master, now that you have obtained the Myriad Spirits Crystal Core, you should hurry and leave this place. I have a feeling that this place is not as simple as it seems."

Aside from the few humans who appeared earlier and that so-called Lord of the Ruins of Return, this place seems to be hiding a great secret.

Five Spirits Lord looked around, his expression very serious.

Li Yunjing stood up and looked at Five Spirits Lord with a puzzled expression.

"I obtained the Myriad Spirits Crystal Core?" Li Yunjing asked, puzzled. "You mean the Core of the Ruins of Return or the Black-Yellow Origin Mark?"

"The Black-Yellow Origin Mark," said the Five Spirits Lord.

Li Yunjing's eyes widened; he hadn't expected that he had already obtained the Myriad Spirits Crystal Core.

However, even though he obtained the Myriad Spirits Crystal Core, Li Yunjing still wanted to take the treasures left behind by the Nine Sages with him first.

When Five Spirits Lord learned of Li Yunjing's idea, he did not object.

"In short, young master, please proceed with caution and do not linger in this place."

Li Yunjing nodded in agreement, and Five Spirits Lord returned to the Five Aggregates Cauldron.

After waiting for a while, Fang Hexuan and the others finally finished healing.

The three were seriously injured, but fortunately their vital essence was not damaged. In addition, the healing pills they carried were of very high quality, so their injuries recovered to about 70-80% in a short time.

They were able to move freely and had regained some of their combat effectiveness.

"Grandmaster Fang, I plan to take the treasures left behind by the Nine Sages before leaving. What do you think?" Li Yunjing asked.

Fang Hexuan nodded. "Whatever you say, the three of us will act as thugs from now on."

Li Yunjing smiled and led Fang Hexuan and the others toward the location of the treasure left behind by the first sage.

Before long, the four of them arrived at their first location.

The four of them encountered no obstacles along the way, Li Yunjing found quite strange.

When I first entered the Myriad Spirits Ruins of Return, I clearly sensed that danger lurked everywhere.

But now that feeling has disappeared.

Could it be that the appearance of the Lord of the Ruins of Return resolved all these crises?

The first sage left his treasure on a cliff face.

Facing the cliff face, Li Yunjing took out the Black-Yellow Origin Mark. The next moment, the Black-Yellow Origin Mark transformed into a golden thread in Li Yunjing's palm and shot towards the cliff face.

The originally steep stone wall rippled like water the moment the Golden Light touched it, revealing a giant bronze gate engraved with sacred symbols.

Each sacred rune exudes the aura unique to an High Antiquity saint, sometimes as fiery as fire, sometimes as profound as the sea, and sometimes as fierce as thunder.

Li Yunjing took a deep breath, stepped forward, and placed his palm on the bronze giant door.

In an instant, the sacred runes lit up, and the giant gate slowly opened inward, releasing an ancient aura.

Behind the door is a huge circular stone chamber, with nine jade pillars with coiled dragons supporting the dome, and a sacred altar at the very front.

On the sacred platform lay a treasure enveloped in golden light, a priceless heirloom forged by one of the Nine Sages.

Li Yunjing and Fang Hexuan exchanged a glance, then stepped inside simultaneously.

As you approach, the sacred altar exudes a rich medicinal fragrance, and the stone wall behind the altar is carved with the figure of an old man who has tasted all kinds of Hundred Herbs.

Within the light screen, a three-legged, two-eared purple-gold Pill Furnace floated silently, its body engraved with countless Spirit Plant patterns, and its mouth shrouded in a faint seven-colored glow.

He reached out and touched the light screen, and golden light instantly merged into his body.

A message flooded into his mind: The Hundred Herbs Pill Furnace is the first Pill Furnace in the Black-Yellow Realm. It was crafted by Pill Sage and can automatically absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to nurture pills. As long as the medicinal materials are put in, top-grade pills can be refined without any manipulation.

In addition, it can restore lost ancient Pill Formula formulas; as long as there are fragments, the complete formula can be derived.

After reading this message, the look of shock in Li Yunjing's eyes remained.

This Pill Furnace is incredibly powerful!

With this Pill Furnace, the Luozhen Sect can obtain a continuous supply of spiritual pills in the future.

Beside the Pill Furnace, there were nine jade bottles, each engraved with an inscription written by the Pill Sage.

The first bottle contains three Nine Revolutions Soul-Returning Pill, capable of bringing the dead back to life and restoring flesh and bone; even if only a wisp of the soul remains, the body can be reconstructed.

The second bottle contains ten Spirit Transformation Pill, which guarantee a 100% breakthrough to the Spirit Transformation Stage after consumption, without any backlash from inner demons.

The remaining seven bottles contained High Antiquity divine pills such as the Nascent Soul Spirit-Fortifying Pill, the Marrow-Cleansing Pill, and the Qi Gathering Pill, each of which was enough to cause a bloodbath in the outside world.

After checking them one by one, Li Yunjing's eyes were filled with excitement.

These ten bottles of elixirs are top-notch in both value and practicality.

Especially that bottle of Spirit Transformation Pill. Li Yunjing's current cultivation level has reached the Nascent Soul Perfection. After taking the Spirit Transformation Pill, he can become Spirit Transformation High Person!

At this moment, Li Yunjing also discovered a scroll of scripture pressed at the bottom of the Pill Furnace. Upon picking it up, he saw that the scripture was titled "Shennong Pill Scripture," which recorded 3,600 Pill Formula refined by the Pill Sage throughout his life.

Li Yunjing gasped. With this alchemy manual, the Luozhen Sect wouldn't need to go to such lengths to find Pill Formula.

Li Yunjing showed the alchemical text to Fang Hexuan was standing nearby.

Fang Hexuan could not hide his excitement either.

After putting away all the treasures, Li Yunjing and the others wandered around the area again to confirm that everything was in order before leaving.

As they stepped out of the colossal bronze gate, it slammed shut instantly and collapsed in the next moment.

It seems that once the legacy is passed down, the places where the sage left his teachings will also disappear.

Li Yunjing glanced back once, then continued on to the next location.

Again, the journey was uneventful, and Li Yunjing and his group soon arrived at the second location for the inheritance.

As before, he used the Black-Yellow Origin Mark to summon the giant bronze gate.

After the giant bronze gate opened, the group stepped inside.
