Sage's Blessing

After sensing the aura of the Six Paths, Kou Yan and Jing Kong no longer paid any heed to the Asura clan, exerting their full strength to fly rapidly towards that aura.

The ancestral land of the Asura clan was not far, and the two soon arrived. They forcefully broke through the outer defenses and entered the stone chamber.

Upon entering the stone chamber, the two were immediately drawn to the five statues, but upon seeing the underground passage beside the Blood Lotus Platform, both rushed into it without prior agreement.

After the two entered the underground passage, Jia Ren followed closely behind, appearing in the stone chamber, and simultaneously jumped into the underground passage without hesitation, his eyes filled with longing.

As soon as that aura appeared, his Double Pupils transmitted an intense emotion.

Jia Ren knew very well that the emotion was longing, a longing to devour that aura.

From since awakening, his Double Pupils had rarely transmitted this emotion to him, and each time this situation occurred, he had gained no small benefit.

This time, the longing of his Double Pupils was unprecedentedly intense, which also indicated how important that aura was to his Double Pupils.

Thinking this, Jia Ren accelerated, quickly passing through the long corridor, and then heard the exclamations of Kou Yan and Ru Ji coming from ahead.

Jia Ren's heart trembled, and his steps quickened further, wanting to surpass Kou Yan and Jing Kong to enter the altar, but he was blocked by Kou Yan.

Looking at Kou Yan's somewhat displeased eyes, Jia Ren then realized how reckless his recent actions had been. His face showed fear, and he tried to suppress the desire in his heart, looking inside.

He wouldn't have looked if he hadn't, but upon seeing it, Jia Ren's Dao Heart almost faltered.

A fragment of the Six Paths!

If he could refine it, what kind of power would his Double Pupils gain!

Gazing at the broken stone slab, like a roadside pebble, Jia Ren's eyes were filled with greed. But with two Void Refinement mighty figures present, he could only try his best to endure, while simultaneously looking towards Jia Yi, who was unconscious on the altar, his expression thoughtful.

Not long after, the elders of both sects arrived, and some disciples with higher cultivation bases also came one after another. Upon seeing Zhao Shi, Jia Yi, and Ru Ji unconscious, and Su Mu standing blankly in the center, everyone showed curiosity.

Hadn't these people fallen into the sea of blood? How did they appear here?

Everyone from the Nether Palace was filled with curiosity, while those from the Pure Land Sect were overjoyed.

Their own Heavenly prodigies were safe and sound, which was naturally a cause for joy, though the state of the few seemed a bit unusual.

"Martial Uncle Jing Kong, Ru Ji, he..."

Seeing this, Zhen Hui immediately stepped forward, about to ask Jing Kong, but was stopped by him.

"All four of them are receiving inheritances; do not disturb them."

Jing Kong glanced at the flickering Buddhist light on Ru Ji's body, quickly deducing that Ru Ji was receiving some kind of inheritance, and the same applied to Jia Yi and the others beside him.

"Four people receiving inheritances at the same time?!"

Hearing Jing Kong's words, the cultivators of both sects couldn't help but exclaim, their eyes complex as they looked at the four on the altar.

Not only did they not die after falling into the sea of blood, but they also received inheritances. What kind of luck was this?

No, this could no longer be called luck; it had to be destiny.

On another note, if he had intervened to help at that time, perhaps he too would be among those receiving inheritances here?

Everyone from both sects had complex feelings, even the elders were no exception. After all, an inheritance that could accompany such a treasure could not be ordinary.

They had naturally noticed the Six Paths fragment in the center of the altar, but since the grand elders on both sides had not given orders, they dared not act rashly. They could only wait silently, but their eyes remained fixed on the Six Paths fragment.

However, one person was an exception.

After sensing the stable aura on Zhao Shi's body, Song Li, who had always been indifferent to everything, changed his expression. Although he quickly reined it in, his eyes still revealed an uncontrollable joy.

Indeed, just as the divination had predicted, the Young Master truly obtained that item!

Not long after, Ru Ji and Jia Yi successively woke up. After a brief silence, both, without prior agreement, saluted each other, then glanced at Zhao Shi, who was still unconscious, and Su Mu, who was standing blankly, before returning to their respective sect's ranks.

"Junior Brother, congratulations. You are but one step away from Spirit Refinement."

Looking at Jia Yi, whose aura had completely changed, a trace of coldness flashed in Jia Ren's eyes, but a joyful smile bloomed on his face as he stepped forward to congratulate him. However, Jia Yi paid him no mind. After saluting Kou Yan and the elders, he quietly stood behind Song Li.

Seeing Jia Yi's coldness towards him, Jia Ren's expression remained unchanged, still maintaining a benevolent smile, though that smile seemed a bit stiff.

"Peak Sixth Level. It seems this young patron has gained no weak inheritance."

Jing Kong glanced at Jia Ren, whose aura had greatly changed, and immediately congratulated Kou Yan. Kou Yan curled his lips, looked at Ru Ji, who was shielded behind Jing Kong, and said, "Great Master Jing Kong jests. How can he compare to your sect's disciple, who advanced directly into the Spirit Refinement Realm in one step?"

"Not at all, not at all. It's just that Ru Ji has accumulated a bit longer."

Both congratulated each other, but tacitly did not ask what kind of inheritance their disciples had received, continuing to wait for Zhao Shi and Su Mu, who had yet to awaken.

A moment later, Zhao Shi from the Nether Palace slowly woke up. Before he could examine his own condition, he eagerly searched for Su Mu and the others, only to see the cultivators of both sects staring at him with strange gazes.

"Huh, Master, why are you all here? Junior Brother Jia, Great Master Ru Ji, are you two alright? And Junior Brother Su..."

"I'm fine. I've made Senior Brother worry."

Hearing Zhao Shi's question, Jia Yi stood out to indicate he was fine, and Ru Ji also smiled and said, "Thank you, Patron Zhao, for your concern. This poor monk is also fine. As for Patron Su..."

With that, Ru Ji pointed at Su Mu, who was still standing blankly, and said, "Patron Su should also be receiving some kind of inheritance. Patron Zhao need not worry."

"Inheritance? Junior Brother Su indeed has profound blessings." Seeing that everyone was fine, Zhao Shi finally felt relieved, and at the same time rejoiced for Su Mu's fortuitous encounter. Just as he was about to say something more, he discovered the strange gazes of the cultivators from both sects.

"Is there something wrong with me? Huh? How did my wounds heal?"

Looking at Zhao Shi's bewildered expression, Zhong Xuan frowned, glanced at Song Li, who had remained silent beside him, and asked, "Zhao Shi, did you receive an inheritance?"

"Inheritance? No, I didn't. It's just that earlier... Huh, what happened earlier? I don't remember anything."

Hearing Zhao Shi's words, Zhong Xuan and the others couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, while a trace of joy flashed in Jing Kong's eyes.

Originally, seeing three people from the Nether Palace receive inheritances, even his state of mind had developed some other thoughts. He had only refrained from acting rashly out of concern for affecting Ru Ji.

But now, hearing that Zhao Shi had not received an inheritance, he was naturally overjoyed. However, just as he was about to say something, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from Su Mu's direction.

Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned towards Su Mu, the last one to awaken, while Kou Yan and Jing Kong exclaimed aloud.

"Sage's Blessing, a single step into Void Refinement!"
