The crimson cauldron emitted a terrifying aura that was scorching hot. As it approached Lu Ming, Lu Ming felt as if he was being burnt.
However, a strange scene occurred. When the cauldron approached Lu Ming, it shrunk rapidly and turned into a ray of light that rushed into Lu Ming's mind and disappeared.
In the next moment, the cauldron appeared in Lu Ming's mind and emitted a blinding light. At the same time, a large amount of information rushed into Lu Ming's mind.
Lu Ming subconsciously sat down cross-legged and began to digest the information.
After an unknown period of time, Lu Ming opened his eyes.
"Great Development Cauldron, Great Development Pill Scripture. I didn't expect to receive the inheritance of the Great Development Pill Hall!"
Lu Ming muttered with a complicated expression.
There were two main types of information that appeared in his mind. One was the Great Development Pill Scripture, and the other was the sacred scripture of alchemy.
"The Great Development Pill Scripture is indeed mysterious. Just like the rumors, it can use the laws of heaven and earth to refine pills.
Lu Ming's face was filled with amazement.
Of course, he only had a rough idea of the contents of the Great Development Pill Scripture. He was still far from comprehending it. He would need to spend more time to comprehend it.
There was another piece of information, which was the Great Development Pill Formation.
There were ancestors of the Great Development Pill Hall who had carved a powerful formation in the vicinity of this mountain. At this moment, all the information was in Lu Ming's mind and could be easily grasped by Lu Ming.
"This place is protected by a large formation and rich in Origin Qi. It's not a bad place to live in the future!"
Lu Ming smiled.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
At this time, in the quiet stone room, there was a clear sound. This sound seemed to be the sound of a wooden stick hitting the ground.
"Someone's here!"
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
Was there still a descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall alive?
Lu Ming focused his attention and scanned his surroundings.
The tapping sound was getting closer and closer. Then, Lu Ming saw a figure walking out from the depths of the stone room.
This was an old man wearing gray clothes. However, this old man was truly very old. Not much of his snow-white hair remained. His body was skinny, and the wrinkles on his face piled up like a mountain.
There was no martial aura emanating from his body. He looked like an ordinary old man who was on the verge of death.
But Lu Ming did not dare to be the slightest bit careless. Since the other party appeared in the Great Pill Evolution Hall, it was most likely not ordinary.
"How many years has it been? Someone is finally here!"
The old man spoke in a hoarse voice, but his voice was weak and feeble.
He opened his murky eyes and looked at Lu Ming. Suddenly, he bowed to Lu Ming, "This old servant greets the new Hall Master!"
Lu Ming hurriedly waved his hand, and a force lifted the old man up. He asked, "Senior, why are you doing this? Also, who are you? "
"This old servant is just a servant of the Great Development Pill Hall. I was ordered to guard the Great Development Pill Hall and wait for the arrival of the new descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall. Finally, before I die, the new descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall has arrived!"
The old man said.
"I've become the descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall?"
Lu Ming asked.
"That's right. The previous Hall Master said that anyone who can enter here is the descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall. Otherwise, why would the Great Development Pill Furnace enter your sea of consciousness and recognize you as its master?"
The old man explained.
"Senior, what's going on? What does this have to do with the descendant of the Hunyuan Sect? Can you explain it to me? "
Lu Ming asked the doubts in his heart.
"It's very simple. The previous Hall Master is also the descendant of the Hunyuan Sect. He's a silver descendant!"
After saying that, a token appeared in the old man's hand. It shone with a silver light. It was the Hunyuan Sect's silver inheritance token.
"The previous Sect Master said that the Great Development Pill Hall can only appear when the Hunyuan Sect's gold descendant is born. The gold descendant is the descendant of the Great Development Pill Hall and the Hall Master of the Great Development Pill Hall!"
"Some time ago, through the Silver Inheritor Token, I sensed that the Gold Inheritor of the Hunyuan Sect had finally appeared. So, I opened the Great Evolution Pill Palace and waited for the arrival of the Gold Inheritor of the Hunyuan Sect. I did not expect the Palace Master to arrive so soon. It seems like the Palace Master is in the Ancient Moon Holy Land!
The old man explained in detail.
"I see!"
Lu Ming suddenly understood. No wonder there was a mark of the Hunyuan Sect's inheritance token on the stone door. No wonder no one could enter, not even Huang Ling and Long Chen. He was the only one who could enter.
This was because the Great Development Pill Hall had appeared for him. If he did not come, no one else would be able to obtain the inheritance.
Then, he thought of another question.
The silver inheritance token could sense the birth of a gold descendant.
Did that mean that the previous Hunyuan Sect's inheritors could sense it? Even some powerful existences knew that a gold descendant had appeared?
It seemed like he had to be more careful in the future. Unless it was necessary, he could not reveal his identity as the gold descendant of the Hunyuan Sect.
Lu Ming pondered in his heart. If some powerful existences harbored ill intentions and knew that he was the gold inheritor of the Hunyuan Sect, they might slap him to death.
"By the way, senior, where are the others in the Great Development Pill Hall?"
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat and he asked again.
"There's no one else. There's only me. If a few more days pass, I'm afraid I'll be buried. Luckily, the Heavens have eyes. Before I'm buried, the Palace Master came here and inherited the Great Evolution Pill Palace. Even if I die, I can rest in peace!"
The old man said, his voice filled with sadness.
Lu Ming was shocked and he said, "Why is senior the only one left in the Great Development Pill Hall? Legend has it that when one reaches the Martial Emperor Realm, his lifespan is unlimited and he is almost immortal … "
Lu Ming was indeed shocked.
Lu Ming did not believe that the Great Development Pill Hall did not have a Martial Monarch Realm expert.
In the ancient era, the Great Development Pill Hall was famous in the Primordial Mountain. Their alchemy skills were unparalleled, and they were able to establish their own sect in the Ancient Moon Sacred Ground.
Moreover, after countless years, almost all the major factions in the Ancient Moon Sacred Ground were on the move. Even Martial Monarchs showed up. How could such a faction not have a Martial Monarch? Lu Ming did not believe it!
"It's true that Martial Monarchs have an endless lifespan, but none of them are truly immortal!"
The old man sighed.
Lu Ming was confused. Could it be that the rumors were wrong?
"Palace Master, you probably don't know this yet, right? The Martial Emperor Realm has an endless lifespan. However, there will be a great calamity every three hundred and thirty-three years. Those who manage to overcome it will have their cultivation tempered and become stronger. They might even be able to advance to the next level. However, those who fail to overcome it will be turned into ashes by the great calamity!"
The old man's explanation made Lu Ming's heart skip a beat.
Martial Monarchs had to face a great tribulation every three hundred and thirty-three years. Those who failed to survive the tribulation would be turned into ashes.
Martial Monarchs were not free of worries. They had to face great tribulations to achieve immortality.
In other words, Martial Monarchs pursued strength more than other cultivators because they would die if they were not strong enough.
"Each tribulation is more powerful than the previous one. If Martial Monarchs remain stagnant, they will die under the tribulation. So what if you're a Martial Monarch? You can't escape the punishment of the heavens!"
