"Long Aotian, how could he possibly obtain the inheritance of the Primordial Pill Saint?"
Xiao Rui and Tie Xinyuan both had ugly expressions on their faces, and their eyes looking towards Ling Xiao were filled with jealousy and unwillingness.
They were all very aware of the glory of the Sun and Moon Alchemy Sect in ancient times, as well as the power of the Hunyuan Alchemy Saint. They thought that with their talents they might be able to inherit the Hunyuan Alchemy Saint's legacy, but they did not expect that Ling Xiao would get there first.
"May I have your name?"
Hunyuan Dan Sheng glanced at Ling Xiao and asked.
"I am Long Aotian, a disciple of the War God Temple! I am honored to meet Master Hunyuan Dansheng!"
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and bowed towards Hunyuan Dan Sheng.
"Already have a master? But it doesn't matter. Since you have received my inheritance, you will be my Hunyuan disciple and the head of my Sun and Moon Dan Sect. As for the War God Temple, you'd better withdraw quickly! Kneel down and become my disciple!"
Hunyuan Dan Sheng frowned slightly, but still spoke calmly.
"Master Hunyuan Dansheng, I already have a master. Although I have received your inheritance, I do not want to betray my master. Please help me!"
Ling Xiao smiled calmly, but his voice was extremely firm.
"So, you are unwilling to become my disciple and the headmaster of my Sun Moon Pill Sect?"
Hunyuan Dan Sheng's eyes flashed and his voice became slightly colder.
"Long Aotian, you... you are simply out of your mind, why don't you kneel down and pay homage to the Master?"
Lin Xi looked at Ling Xiao with some disappointment and shouted quickly.
Everyone had already sensed the chill emanating from Hunyuan Dan Sheng's body. Xiao Rui and Tie Xinyuan both showed a hint of sneer in their eyes. They were already very happy that Ling Xiao was so ignorant of the current situation. They wished that Hunyuan Dan Sheng would kill Ling Xiao with a single blow and then accept them as his disciples.
"Long Aotian, you are really infuriating! This Hunyuan Dan Sheng seems to be in a bad mood, can't you just agree to him first? It won't do you any good to anger him!"
Lin Xi sent a message to Ling Xiao with both complaints and anger.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine!"
Ling Xiao sent a message to Lin Xi, as if he didn't care at all.
"Master Hunyuan Dansheng, this time he was unruly and did not know how to respect his teacher. He was just a little bit lucky! He is not worthy of being your disciple at all!"
Xiao Rui bowed to Hunyuan Dan Sheng.
"That's right, I can testify to that! Master Hunyuan Dan Sheng, this boy has no talent for alchemy, and I'm afraid he can't inherit your alchemy heritage at all!"
Tie Xinyuan's eyes also flashed, and he stood up and said.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.
No one expected that Ling Xiao would actually reject Hunyuan Dan Sheng, and what they didn't expect was that Xiao Rui and Tie Xinyuan actually jumped out. It seemed that these two guys were the ones who wanted to obtain Hunyuan Dan Sheng's inheritance the most!
"A bunch of ignorant people, blinded by profit! Do you really think he is the Primordial Pill Saint?"
Ling Xiao sneered, his eyes full of disdain.
"Not the Primordial Pill Saint?!"
Everyone couldn't help but shudder, shocked by Ling Xiao's words.
"The Hunyuan Dan Saint is a figure from ancient times. Even the great emperors from ancient times could not live to this day. Do you really think that a mere saint can have such a long lifespan?"
Ling Xiao said lightly, and finally looked directly at Hunyuan Dan Sheng with a deep and calm gaze.
"Not bad, not bad! I haven't seen such an interesting young man for a long time. What else do you want to say? Just say it all!"
Hunyuan Dan Sheng was not angry at all. Instead, he showed an interested look and said to Ling Xiao.
"You are actually dead, right?"
Ling Xiao stared at Hunyuan Dan Sheng and said something that shocked everyone: "Although you look full of vitality, your life source has long been exhausted, and your body is filled with death. Although I am also curious about what kind of existence you are, you are indeed dead!"
Ling Xiao's voice was extremely calm, but it made everyone feel a chill that chilled their hearts.
Is Hunyuan Dan Sheng dead
Who was the old man in sackcloth before them? Everyone could sense that the old man in sackcloth before them was not a remnant soul of a spirit body. Even if he was a remnant soul, it was impossible for him to live from ancient times to the present. The old man in sackcloth before them was indeed a living being with flesh and blood!
Everyone couldn't help but look at the old man in hemp clothes, with a hint of fear in their eyes.
Even Xiao Rui and Tie Xinyuan's expressions changed. They were frightened by Ling Xiao's words at the moment, and no longer cared about the inheritance of Hunyuan Dan Sheng!
Although they had suspected the old man in hemp clothes had some purpose before, after they refined those memory stars, they were attracted by the various magical powers contained therein and had forgotten the danger here.
And now, they suddenly woke up and realized that the crisis has not been eliminated.
If what Ling Xiao said is true, then what is the purpose of this old man in hemp clothes
Compared with one's own life, the so-called inheritance, opportunity and fortune are just clouds!
"Yes, I didn't expect you to be able to sense what's going on inside my body. I'm really getting more and more curious about you! But this doesn't mean anything at all. Maybe I used some secret method. There are still many things in this big world that you don't know! Boy, do you really not want to take me as your master?"
Hunyuan Dan Sheng smiled slightly, his voice sounded ethereal and hollow.
However, his expression seemed extremely cold and strange, which made everyone feel a chill.
"Everyone knows that the Hunyuan Dan Sheng is an expert in both alchemy and martial arts. Not only is his attainment in alchemy extremely high, but his combat power is also extremely strong. However, few people know that the Hunyuan Dan Sheng is also a heart sage! If my guess is correct, this nine-story pagoda is the transformation of your heart realm, right?"
Ling Xiao did not directly answer Hunyuan Dan Sheng's question, but continued to talk to himself.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a strange sharpness appeared in the eyes of Hunyuan Dan Sheng. Ling Xiao felt as if he was being stared at by some ancient ferocious beast.
"Heart Realm?!"
Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed, their eyes full of disbelief.
The content of Ling Xiao’s words was too terrifying, but after thinking about it carefully, everyone actually believed Ling Xiao’s words. Only if the Nine-story Pagoda was the heart realm of Hunyuan Dan Sheng could they explain everything that happened, and could explain the strange power, as well as being inexplicably pushed into the ninth level of space, and then seeing Hunyuan Dan Sheng under the starry sky!
It turns out that Hunyuan Dan Sheng is the real mastermind behind this!
