Chapter 110: Contest in Chu Capital - Two InheritancesAfter Luo Feng stepped into the Inheritance Hall, he felt as though he had entered an independent space, surrounded by chaos.
“Guest Elder Luo He,” a figure of light condensed, forming into an elderly man who smiled at Luo Feng. “I am the artifact spirit of Emperor Chu Palace, here to assist you in exchanging inheritance resources.”
“Thank you,” Luo Feng replied politely.
The elderly man said, “Every new guest elder is granted a free exchange limit of 100,000 merit points. According to the rules of the Inheritance Hall, the more merit points a guest elder has, the more inheritances and resources they can access.”
“What inheritances and resources can I view?” Luo Feng asked curiously.
“With 100,000 merit points, you can view all inheritances and resources that require no more than 1 million merit points to exchange,” the elder explained. “In the future, when Guest Elder Luo He has accumulated more merit points, for example, if you have 300,000 merit points, you can view all resources and inheritances requiring up to 3 million merit points.”
Luo Feng understood.
“Please, take a look,” the elder said, waving his hand. The surrounding chaos shifted, and on the left appeared a list of inheritance information, while on the right, a dense array of resource information materialized.
“The inheritances on the left are listed in order from highest to lowest merit required.”
“The resources on the right are also listed from highest to lowest merit required. Guest Elder Luo He, you may take your time to review them; there is no time limit. Once you’ve made your choice, just inform me,” the elder said.
Luo Feng nodded and began to look at the inheritances that interested him most.
At the very top of the list was an inheritance called **Causal Ashfire** Volume 1, requiring 1 million merit points to exchange.
**Causal Ashfire** Volume 1 was an inheritance of the Causal Origin Path, requiring the use of **Hun Yuan Force** from beyond the Cage for cultivation, with power far surpassing that of the same level.
…
**Eight Volumes of the Hun Yuan Space Fragmented Array**, Volume 1, required 1 million merit points. This was an incomplete record of an ancient formation inheritance from beyond the Cage. It had extremely high cultivation requirements, demanding a deep understanding of the Space Origin Path and Hun Yuan Force.
…
**Song of the Earth**, Upper Volume, required 1 million merit points.
To cultivate this, one needed to first exchange the Hun Yuan material **Earth Scale** and then comprehend the **Earth Origin Path**. The world we live in, the Cage, lacks the Earth Origin Path among its supreme rules. Choose carefully.
…
**Three Treasures Body**, First Level, required 1 million merit points.
This required the exchange of the Hun Yuan material **Three Treasures Heart** for cultivation and demanded comprehension of the **Life Origin Path**. It also had extremely high requirements for mental willpower.
…
Each inheritance was described in great detail, including the price of the required Hun Yuan materials, which branch of the Origin Path it corresponded to, the strength of the willpower required, the cultivation environment, and the auxiliary materials needed.
These descriptions were meant to help the exchangee make informed choices.
“It’s clear that in the Ancient Flame Kingdom, inheritances that can utilize Hun Yuan Force or Hun Yuan materials are extremely powerful, but they also require very high merit points to exchange,” Luo Feng observed.
These inheritances, at the entry level, could all lead to the Chaos Realm Transcendent level! If one reached the God King level, they would be able to stand proudly among others of the same rank, with mysterious and unpredictable methods.
After all…
Normal God King-level methods relied on the typical powers within the Cage. However, these methods used Hun Yuan Force and Hun Yuan materials.
“Whether it’s the Origin Continent or the **Three Thousand Dimensions of the Primal Universe** surrounding it, they all operate according to supreme rules,” Luo Feng thought as he read the detailed descriptions. “This complete and vast world governed by supreme rules is like a Cage! Beyond the Cage lies a broader realm where the power that flows is Hun Yuan Force.”
Hun Yuan Force was a more mysterious form of power.
Chaos Realm beings needed special methods to utilize it.
“It’s no wonder that outsiders speculate that the two ancestors of the Ancient Flame Kingdom and the Ancient Thunder Kingdom might be beings who have broken free from the Cage,” Luo Feng thought. “Seeing these inheritances and resources, anyone would guess the same.”
However, the two ancient kingdoms had never acknowledged this.
“The Hun Yuan materials are also very expensive,” Luo Feng noted as he looked at the resources on the other side.
The item ranked first was called **Hun Yuan Crystal**, which required 1 million merit points to exchange. The Hun Yuan Crystal contained purified Hun Yuan Force.
The second-ranked item was **Direct Exposure to the Time Origin Path** for one era, requiring 900,000 merit points.
The third-ranked items were the other eight Origin Paths within the supreme rules. Direct exposure to any of these for one era required 800,000 merit points.
“Does the Flame Wind Ancestor really have ways to let his descendants directly face all nine Origin Paths within the supreme rules?” Luo Feng was amazed. Of course, just one era of exposure required 800,000 to 900,000 merit points. Although he had permanent access to the Life Origin Path, which was a significant advantage, these options were still impressive.
The fourth-ranked item was the **Complete Corpse of a Blood Beetle**, requiring 800,000 merit points.
The fifth-ranked item was a **Sword**, a God King-level weapon, also requiring 800,000 merit points.
The sixth-ranked item was a **Shadowless Treasure Herb**. Consuming this herb would make one a favored child of the Infinite Origin Path, with the effect lasting as long as one’s soul strength allowed. It required 800,000 merit points to exchange.
The seventh-ranked item was the Hun Yuan material **Three Treasures Heart**, requiring 800,000 merit points.
…
Luo Feng carefully reviewed the options.
Although he only had a limit of 100,000 merit points, making it impossible to exchange for those high-priced items, the numerous inheritances and resources expanded his knowledge. He now had a clearer understanding of the strength of some ancient God Kings and Chaos Realm Transcendent beings.
“The Ancient Flame Kingdom does this on purpose, letting every new guest elder see these options. It makes the guest elders work even harder to accumulate merit,” Luo Feng thought.
As the merit points required became lower, the inheritances and resources gradually became more ‘normal.’
“This lowest-ranked inheritance seems fated to me.” Luo Feng noticed a bottom-ranked inheritance called **Heart Shadow Technique**, a God King-level inheritance and the core technique of the Heart Shadow Sect.
Being included in the Ancient Flame Kingdom’s records indicated that it had some excellent qualities. According to the detailed description, **Heart Shadow Technique** was particularly outstanding in life-saving techniques, which qualified it to be recorded here.
“Ordinary God King-level inheritances are priced at 10,000 merit points,” Luo Feng noted. There were quite a few inheritances priced at 10,000 merit points, each with some unique qualities.
“I need to look for inheritances related to the Life Spirit branch and the Destruction ‘Cleaving’ branch,” Luo Feng began
The **Tribulation Beast’s Shadow** was an image of the true Tribulation Beast depicted in the **Tribulation Beast Diagram**.
“Too poor, too poor.”
After thinking it over, Luo Feng decided, “My deepest accumulation is in the Life Spirit branch, and my various transformation techniques are also the core of my strength. I’ll exchange for the First Tribulation of the **Eight Tribulations Life Form** first. As for the Destruction Path’s **Seventy-Two Blades of Annihilation**, I’ll wait for now.”
His **Nine Blades of Breaking the Realm** hadn’t been fully mastered yet, which was sufficient for his current cultivation. He planned to exchange for the blade technique once he had accumulated more merit.
…
The artifact spirit of Emperor Chu Palace patiently waited on the side. Guest elders often took their time reviewing the inheritances and numerous resources on their first visit, and he was accustomed to it.
“I want to exchange for the First Tribulation of the **Eight Tribulations Life Form**,” Luo Feng finally said.
The artifact spirit elder was slightly surprised. “Guest Elder Luo He, are you sure you want to use your entire 100,000 merit points limit to exchange for this one inheritance?”
“Yes,” Luo Feng nodded.
He had long been in need of a detailed inheritance of the Origin Path, and this one encompassed three branches of the Life Origin Path with an extremely solid foundation. It was far superior to the inheritances of his master Zuo Shan Ke’s lineage or the Undying River of the Broken Eastern River lineage. No wonder so many sought to become guest elders of the two ancient kingdoms.
