As Qin Chen left that void space,
in another part of the inheritance land, Mo Li was trapped in a void inheritance space and had been here for quite some time.
Ever since he completed all the inheritance challenges, he had been stuck here, unable to leave, and with no hints, as if he were imprisoned.
At first, Mo Li was patient, thinking it was an assessment or perhaps something else, but as time passed, he gradually felt that something was off and could no longer sit still.
“What on earth is going on?”
Mo Li frowned in deep thought.
“If I passed the assessment, then I should be receiving the inheritance of this great Alchemist now. If I failed the assessment, I should either be killed by this great Alchemist or be teleported out. Why am I being kept here?”
Mo Li had accepted various inheritances and was quite experienced, but he had never encountered this situation before.
What is this?
Leaving him hanging here?
If it is a test of temperament, it shouldn’t be like this.
Or is there something wrong with this inheritance?
For example, did someone else get the inheritance before him?
For reasons unknown, Mo Li felt an extremely uncomfortable sensation in his heart, as if some danger was about to descend.
“No, something must have gone wrong. I cannot stay here any longer.”
Mo Li stood up, preparing to find a way to break out of here, when suddenly, a chilling aura flashed in the dark space. Mo Li’s heart tightened; was this… the aura of the Demon Tribe?
Before he could contemplate further, a cold voice suddenly echoed through the void.
“Young man, congratulations on completing all of my inheritance challenges.”
The voice sounded extremely cold, yet carried a strong aura of authority, with a faint vibration that directly manifested in Mo Li's mind.
“I am the Tian Poison Alchemist, a supreme Alchemist of the ancient human race, embodying the way of ten thousand poisons. In ancient times, I accidentally perished and have been seeking a successor to inherit my supreme divine abilities. Unfortunately, I have always been unable to fulfill this wish.”
“Now, my soul has completely dissipated, leaving only the last trace of consciousness. This consciousness is also about to fade, and finally, I have encountered you.”
Mo Li exclaimed in surprise, “Senior, have you chosen me as your successor?”
“Exactly.”
The cold voice replied, “In this inheritance land, three people have passed my inheritance assessment. However, since this is the last trace of my consciousness, after this assessment, even this final trace of soul will dissipate and cannot be preserved. Thus, I took a little longer to consider, and ultimately, I chose you.”
“Although your cultivation is not the strongest among the three, and your Alchemist rank is not the highest, I saw my own shadow in you when I was young, so I chose you. Now, open your heart, and I shall impart all of my life’s inheritance to you.”
Mo Li was excited and said, “Senior, what do I need to do?”
“You don’t need to do anything. Just open your heart. I will leave all my inheritance within you and impart my Law to you.
I hope that after you receive my inheritance, you will uphold my will and carry forward the way of poisons.”
As the cold voice fell, a wave of vast inherited power surged toward Mo Li rapidly.
Mo Li immediately opened his heart, and that power instantly entered his mind. Boom! Mo Li felt a thunderous roar echoing in his mind, as countless powers regarding the way of ten thousand poisons began to gradually seep into his consciousness.
Mo Li clearly felt that his understanding of the way of poisons and the way of Alchemy was being enhanced at an astonishing speed.
Yet alongside those Alchemy powers and the way of poisons, a cold power also slowly seeped into his mind, gradually penetrating into his demonic soul.
Mo Li, somewhat astonished, said, “Senior, what is this? Why do I feel a cold power seeping into my soul?”
“Gagaga, it’s nothing. This is just my inheritance power enhancing your soul. Once my inheritance concludes, your soul will also be elevated.”
