In midair, Liao Cang Qiong softly sighed. He was somewhat relieved and somewhat unwilling.
It wasn't that his desire to win was too strong, it was that he had been waiting for this moment for tens of thousands of years. Naturally, he found it hard to accept.
"This is a good result. If I really beat you, I would feel lost." Liao Cang Qiong softly grinned.
"A life with an opponent is not lonely."
The Ancestor of Alchemy smiled warmly, "Sadly, I am about to disappear."
Then, he shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "He is your apprentice, right?"
"That's right." Liao Cang Qiong nodded with some pride.
Then, his eyes brightened, "Why don't we do this. Since we are evenly matched, why don't we let our inheritors fight it out?"
"That's a good idea. Sadly, my apprentice is no longer in this world." The Ancestor of Alchemy softly sighed.
"I have a good candidate. I wonder if you are willing to take her in as an apprentice?" Liao Cang Qiong mysteriously smiled.
"Of course I want someone to inherit my legacy. However, my requirements are very strict. Not everyone has the right," the Ancestor of Alchemy said.
"I wonder if a near Dan physique is good enough for you?" Liao Cang Qiong faintly smiled.
"Near Dan physique?"
The Ancestor of Alchemy was shocked, "If you really have that kind of physique, then of course you can become my apprentice."
"Alright, I will ask my apprentice to pass your inheritance to that girl and take her in as your apprentice."
Liao Cang Qiong shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian and smiled, "From now on, you and she will be opponents. Don't embarrass me."
Hearing this, Ling Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He didn't think Liao Cang Qiong would find himself an enemy with just a few words.
With a near Dan physique and the Ancestor's inheritance, she was destined to reach the peak of alchemy. Such a powerful opponent was troublesome even for him.
However, since Liao Cang Qiong had spoken, he naturally couldn't reject. Plus, he wasn't afraid.
He accepted, "Master, do not worry. I will do my best."
"A life without an opponent is lonely. Only when you have an enemy can you continue to move forward."
Liao Cang Qiong looked at Ling Xian in a serious manner, "It is rare for a near Dan physique to appear. Of course, I have to make her your motivation. Do you understand my efforts?"
"This disciple understands."
Ling Xian softly grinned. Whether it was the mission given to him or the near Dan Body, it was all for his own good. Naturally, he understood.
"Very good. You guys can push each other and continue the battle between me and the Ancestor of Alchemy." Liao Cang Qiong smiled.
It was the same for the Pill Ancestor.
He smiled faintly and said, "To be able to fight with you and take you as my disciple before I die, I am truly blessed by the heavens."
Hearing this, Liao Cang Qiong became silent.
After a while, he said in a deep voice, "Actually, you don't have to die."
"I know you have a way, but I've made up my mind."
The Pill Ancestor withdrew his smile and said, "This grudge has been entangled for hundreds of thousands of years. It's time to settle it."
"Since that's the case, I won't say anymore."
Liao Cang Qiong was silent for a while and said, "I hope you have a safe journey."
Hearing this, the Ancestor of Alchemy grinned and shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian, "Just give the inheritance to the near-dan body. Don't reveal anything about me."
"I understand." Ling Xian softly nodded.
"The near-dan body is extremely talented. You have to be careful. If you lose to the disciple I've never met, your Master will be furious." The Ancestor of Alchemy teased.
"Haha, you don't have to worry about that."
Liao Cang Qiong laughed brightly, "My disciple isn't someone to be trifled with. You should worry about the disciple you've never met."
"With the near-dan body and my inheritance, nobody can predict how high his future will be."
The Ancestor of Alchemy had high expectations, "Maybe he will surpass me."
"My disciple will surpass me."
Liao Cang Qiong was very confident in Ling Xian, "Look forward to it. That day will for sure appear."
Then, he paid his respect to the Ancestor of Alchemy, "Goodbye."
Hearing this, Ling Xian did the same.
Then, he followed Liao Cang Qiong back to the Painting of the Nine Immortals.
"Did you learn anything from my battle with the Ancestor of Alchemy?" Liao Cang Qiong erased his smile.
"If I didn't learn anything from that battle, then wouldn't I be too useless?"
Ling Xian softly grinned. The Immortal of Alchemy and the Ancestor of Alchemy were both beings who have surpassed the grandmaster level. Their battle naturally benefited him a lot.
Though it was hard for him to digest all of it right now, after he learns everything, he will for sure enter the grandmaster level!
"How confident are you in breaking through to the grandmaster level?" Liao Cang Qiong asked in a serious manner.
"At least 70 percent," Ling Xian said in a low voice.
"Haha, good. You are my disciple after all."
Liao Cang Qiong was ecstatic, "Work hard. Don't lose to the near-dan body!"
"Don't worry, Master."
Ling Xian softly grinned. He suddenly remembered the unexplainable hostility he felt towards the young girl and couldn't help but ask.
"Hostility …"
Liao Cang Qiong frowned, "If I am not wrong, that young girl has the Essence of Herbalism."
"The Essence of Herbalism …"
Ling Xian was surprised. There were only seven types of Essences of Herbalism and they are all unique and extraordinary.
Take the Essence of Herbalism for example. It can control all the information about spiritual medicines and it can maximize the potential of each spiritual medicine.
In other words, without it, Ling Xian's success rate wouldn't be as high and his Dans wouldn't be as effective.
Therefore, he knew very well how powerful the Essence of Herbalism is. Especially in the hands of a near-dan cultivator, it can be used to its fullest potential!
"The combination of the strong."
Ling Xian exclaimed, "A near-dan body, a mysterious Essence of Herbalism, and an unparalleled inheritance. It is hard to imagine how heaven-defying she will be."
"That's true. Any one of these three can create a genius. With all three, her future achievements will be unimaginable."
Liao Cang Qiong nodded softly, "Are you scared?"
"How could I be?"
Ling Xian grinned, "Even though she is heaven-defying, I am not bad myself."
"As long as you are confident."
Liao Cang Qiong had a smile on his face and handed the golden paper to Ling Xian, "Study it well. Then, give it to the young girl."
"Okay."
Ling Xian nodded. Then, the golden paper began to emit heavenly light and Dao sounds began to echo.
Then, he calmed himself down and began to study.
Even though he was walking the same path as Liao Cang Qiong, studying the ancestor's inheritance was very beneficial to him.
He may even be able to combine the two and create a stronger path that belongs to him!
Therefore, Ling Xian calmed himself down and attempted to combine the two inheritances into one.
Sadly, this was far too difficult. Both inheritances were of the highest level, how could they be combined?
Even the ancestor of alchemy didn't have this ability, let alone him!
However, Ling Xian was not discouraged.
He knew that with his current level of skill, he cannot accomplish this. Therefore, his focus was to fully understand the ancestor's inheritance.
Just like that, time passed by little by little.
Three months later, he was already familiar with the ancestor's inheritance. Though he didn't fully understand it, he at least memorized it.
Just then, the array suddenly vibrated, forcing Ling Xian to stop studying.
Because this meant the ancestor had begun his plan.
