Chapter 199: Red Sea Demon Lord’s Dao Realm Alchemy Inheritance
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Fang Lixing was originally afraid of Xu Ning.
Because after Chu Yeyang was thrown down, it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
However, after seeing Xu Ning walk past Jian Li without hurting her, Fang Lixing felt relieved.
In his opinion, Xu Ning should not be a violent person. The reason why he attacked Chu Yeyang was because Chu Yeyang was the one who schemed against him first.
‘In any case, I should climb to the top of the stairs as soon as possible…’
Fang Lixing had currently reached the fortieth step.
After passing through the dense gray fog, Fang Lixing could already see the end of the stairs.
‘There are a total of forty-five steps, there are five more steps!’
Fang Lixing gritted his teeth, strengthened his will, and continued to climb up.
Time slowly passed by.
Fang Lixing had reached the forty-fourth step, while Xu Ning had reached the forty-third step.
‘Two more steps…’
Xu Ning was under tremendous pressure.
Not only was his true qi and attribute power suppressed to the point that they couldn’t leave his body, but even his attribute domain couldn’t spread to half a meter around him.
Xu Ning’s bones were even cracking under the pressure.
‘I have already reached the forty-third step, but I still haven’t seen that person named Fang Lixing. Could he have reached the top?’
Xu Ning was a little worried.
He took out several pure white pills from his storage ring and swallowed them.
After swallowing it, Xu Ning’s true qi, attribute power, and stamina were all restored.
Xu Ning raised his foot and reached the forty-fourth step.
‘Huh?’
As soon as he entered the forty-fourth step, Xu Ning saw the pale Fang Lixing.
The pressure of the forty-fourth step was almost unbearable for Fang Lixing, not to mention the forty-fifth step.
The two looked at each other.
Fang Lixing smiled kindly.
In this current situation, he didn’t want to have any conflict with Xu Ning.
Xu Ning nodded slightly. He treated Fang Lixing the same way he treated Jian Li.
‘After reaching the fortieth step, the increase in pressure is equivalent to the previous ten steps.’
Even Xu Ning felt an insurmountable pressure when he tried to step into the forty-fifth step, as if he would explode if he took another step.
‘The pressure is too great. I can’t separate my true qi and attribute power from my body, and my attribute domain can’t expand anymore, let alone activate my dao weapon…’
Xu Ning thought to himself as he looked at Fang Lixing who was swallowing a pill to recover his strength.
Although this pill was not enough for Fang Lixing to advance further, he could only ensure that he would not fall.
Xu Ning took a deep breath and stopped looking at him.
‘Let’s go!’
After a short period of adjustment, Xu Ning raised his foot and stepped towards the forty-fifth step.
Clack! Clack! Clack!
Xu Ning could clearly feel that his bones were cracking.
‘I can hold on!’
Xu Ning was firm and unmoved.
Finally, Xu Ning climbed up the forty-fifth step.
Poof!
The instant all the pressure dispersed around Xu Ning, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, his internal organs and bones were damaged.
Xu Ning activated the Flame Breath Bone Sutra, swallowed a pill, and healed his injuries while looking at his surroundings.
After reaching the forty-fifth step, there was a small platform that was not very wide.
On the platform, there was a stone stage and on the stone stage, there was a half meter tall stone statue. The stone statue was carved into a bird with wings that looked like a large parrot.

‘Where is the inheritance?’
Xu Ning looked confused. He didn’t find the three inheritances that Chu Yeyang mentioned.
As Xu Ning was puzzled, the stone statue suddenly trembled.
In the blink of an eye, the stone statue turned into a living creature, transforming into a pitch-black bird.
‘This…’
Even though Xu Ning was experienced, he was shocked when he saw this scene.
‘This is not an illusion?’
Xu Ning had never seen anything like this. He even felt like he had fallen into an invisible illusion.
“This is not an illusion.”
Suddenly, the black bird spoke in human language, as though it had seen through Xu Ning’s thoughts.
“You have completed the Demon Lord’s assessment. Of the three inheritances, which one do you want?”
The black bird flapped its wings and flew above Xu Ning’s head.
Xu Ning stared at the black bird and thought, ‘This is the Demon Lord’s move?’
Although he had never seen a true dao realm master, this move deepened Xu Ning’s desire for a dao realm.
“Tell me, don’t dawdle!”
Seeing that Xu Ning had not answered yet, the black bird urged Xu Ning.
“Alchemy technique, I want the alchemy technique inheritance.”
Xu Ning replied to the black bird.
“Are you sure?”
The black bird landed on the stone platform again. It tilted its head and looked at Xu Ning with a human-like expression.
“I’m sure.”
Xu Ning nodded.
“Swallowing the demon essence will make you a genius in the demonic path. After practicing the demonic path, even after breaking through to the dao realm, you can still improve at a high speed. As for practicing a demonic technique, it will allow you to advance quickly, and when you reach the dao realm, you can also kill enemies above your realm. Are you sure you want to give up on these inheritances?”
The black bird seemed to be afraid that Xu Ning would regret it. Not only did it ask again, but it also explained the uniqueness of these inheritance items.
“That’s right, I want to choose the dao realm alchemy technique.”
Xu Ning’s answer was still the same as before.
Xu Ning had learned the effects of the demonic technique and demon essence from Chu Yeyang.
But all these were not necessary for him.
“Okay, you chose the alchemy technique, you can’t change it anymore!”
After seeing Xu Ning make his decision, the black bird’s mouth widened and its abdomen shrank.
Soon, a black crystal ball came out of the black bird’s mouth and floated in front of Xu Ning.
“Inject your true qi, and the alchemy technique will naturally be passed on to you.”
The black bird said, “Also, this black ball is also a keepsake. After obtaining the alchemy technique inheritance, don’t throw it away. When you advance to the dao realm in the future and cross the Endless Sea Abyss to reach State Wansheng, you can take it to the Red Sea Demon Sect. With it, you can become a disciple of the Red Sea Demon Sect.”
“Red Sea Demon Sect…”
Xu Ning muttered softly.
Xu Ning looked at the black crystal ball in his hand.
Although it came out of the black bird’s mouth, there was no strange smell on it.
The moment he touched the black ball, Xu Ning felt that he could use it to leave this mystic realm.
‘Let’s see what’s so special about this alchemy technique of the Red Sea Demon Lord.’
Xu Ning was anxious, so he poured his true qi into it.
Whoosh!
The moment Xu Ning poured his true qi into the black ball, he felt a wave of information washing over his mind. Xu Ning felt a splitting headache.
The last time he experienced this feeling was when he first transmigrated and inherited his predecessor’s memories.
‘What a huge amount of information!’
Xu Ning, who could grit his teeth and persevere on the stairs just now, suddenly collapsed to the ground.
He hugged his head and tried his best to stay awake. ‘This amount of information is too much for ordinary memory crystals…’
The information in the black ball was still being transmitted over.
Xu Ning collapsed to the ground, his mouth twitching.
“Haha, haha, haha!”
The black bird sneered when it saw Xu Ning’s pathetic state.
It seemed to be mocking Xu Ning for overestimating himself.
After a long time, only then did Xu Ning finish absorbing the alchemy technique inheritance in the black ball.
He breathed heavily, but he was obviously much more relaxed.
‘They are both inheritances of dao realm master alchemists, so why is there such a huge difference?’
Xu Ning had obtained the inheritance of a dao realm master alchemist with Xu Hujun’s help in the Demon Beast Scroll Mystic Realm.
There were restrictions in the dao realm alchemy technique. At that time, Xu Ning couldn’t break it at all. It was only after he advanced to the common seal realm that Xu Ning broke the restrictions.
Although he had not advanced to the dao realm and was unable to learn the dao realm alchemy technique, Xu Ning had a rough understanding of the dao realm alchemy technique after reading through it.
However, after receiving the dao realm alchemy technique inheritance from Red Sea Demon Lord, Xu Ning realized that the dao realm alchemy technique he had previously obtained was superficial.
In terms of knowledge, framework, and alchemy, the previous alchemy technique was far inferior to the dao realm alchemy technique of the Red Sea Demon Lord. The difference between the two was like a large realm missing in between.
‘So in State Wansheng, alchemy is divided into two factions: orthodox alchemy technique, and miraculous alchemy technique.’
Xu Ning had always felt that the cores of the two alchemy techniques were different, but now he understood the reason why that was so.
The widely circulated alchemy techniques in the seventeen states of the Abyss North were all orthodox alchemy techniques. They emphasized peace and stability, refining pills through balanced medicinal materials.
But the alchemy techniques of the miraculous type were different. They focused on the unorthodox path.
Whether it was the medicinal effect of the pill or the process of refining the pill, they were all extremely extreme.
Even in State Wansheng, only a few alchemists were practicing miraculous alchemy techniques.
‘There are no righteous or demonic paths in alchemy. I was worried that if I learned the inheritance of the Red Sea Demon Lord, I would be assigned to the demonic faction. It seems that I was worrying too much.’
Even if he advanced to the dao realm in the future and practiced the dao realm alchemy technique of the Red Sea Demon Lord, Xu Ning would only be classified as a miraculous alchemist, not a demonic alchemist.
‘What a good harvest!’
Xu Ning was very satisfied with the inheritance in the mystic realm.
Not only had he advanced to the true domain realm, but he had also obtained the inheritance of an alchemist of this level. He was satisfied.
‘Next, after leaving the mystic realm, I will begin to learn the dao realm technique and advance to the dao realm…’
Xu Ning swallowed a few more pills and combined them with the Flame Breath Bone Sutra, healing 80% of his injuries.
Just when Xu Ning was about to walk down the stairs to check on Chu Yeyang, he saw Fang Lixing walking towards the forty-fifth step.
“I’m coming up!”
Fang Lixing’s nose and mouth were bleeding, his eyes bloodshot. As soon as he stepped forward, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
‘He took a pill that overdrew his potential!’
Xu Ning noticed it immediately.
“Another one who passed the assessment, how nice!”
The black bird flapped its wings happily. It ignored Xu Ning and flew to the top of Fang Lixing’s head.
“Huurr, pui!”
