To those who understand formations, the positions of these starlights are traceable, and coincidentally, Ruan Xiyan is very knowledgeable about formations.
Moreover, array formations were her master's forte. Under her master's guidance and with the added advantage of her unique blood-red eyes, Ruan Xiyan had long been a master of array formations.
Breaking a mere star formation is too easy for her; ordinary star formations are simply broken by brute force.
However, a star array set up by the inheritance site of an Emperor-grade alchemist is definitely not something that can be broken simply with spiritual power.
Ruan Xiyan pondered for a moment, then poured her mental energy into the starlight in different orders to break the formation.
As Ruan Xiyan infused her spiritual power into the starlight, the starlight, which had been emitting a faint glow, became bright and dazzling.
After Ruan Xiyan infused the last starlight into her spiritual power, a "crack" sound rang in her ears, and the invisible barrier in front of her disappeared.
Ruan Xiyan clapped her hands. As expected, to break through this barrier, one needed both a basic understanding of formations and a certain level of strong mental power.
It must be said that the trials set up by this Emperor-grade alchemist in the inheritance grounds are quite interesting.
Ordinary alchemists focus on alchemy, so how could they have the leisure to study formations?
If it weren't for encountering the prodigy Ruan Xiyan, it's possible that even after another thousand years, we might not be able to find a suitable successor.
However, given that it is the legacy of an imperial-grade alchemist, it is not unreasonable to prefer quality over quantity.
Without the barrier blocking her way, Ruan Xiyan walked forward.
Blackwing, sitting on the rock, nodded in satisfaction. This little human girl was quite capable; she understood things quickly and broke the array on the barrier so fast.
The entire giant alchemy cauldron palace was empty, except for a table in the very center, on which was a miniature version of the alchemy cauldron.
After seeing the full picture of the alchemy cauldron, Ruan Xiyan's eyes lit up; it was actually the Chenyue Cauldron.
It is said that among the many alchemy cauldrons on the mainland, the Chenyue Cauldron has always held the top position.
Pills refined using the Chenyue Cauldron will have double the quality, making it the best tool for alchemists when refining pills.
However, the Chenyue Cauldron in front of him seemed to have flaws and was not as perfect as the legends said.
An aged voice suddenly echoed in the palace, “My name is Xingyao. After many years, I have finally waited for a destined person to come here.”
"Young man, you are qualified to receive my inheritance because you were able to open the barrier I set up, but you are far from enough to truly obtain it."
"Next, the inheritance assessment will begin. Light the Chenyue Cauldron and take it off the table to pass the assessment."
The voice spoke calmly about the assessment criteria for the inheritance.
Hearing that familiar voice, Blackwing's eyes flashed with disappointment and sadness.
The master's power had long since transformed into the Dan Realm, and everything was offered to the Dan Realm without reservation to maintain its operation.
After a thousand years, everything left behind by the owner has completely disappeared.
The reason why the Dan Realm can still exist in the world is because the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is constantly nurturing it, preventing the Dan Realm from collapsing and dissipating.
The sounds we hear now are merely those left behind by the master at the place of inheritance.
Ruan Xiyan looked at the silent Chenyue Cauldron in front of her. This test seemed to be very simple.
Simply injecting flames into the alchemy cauldron will ignite it, but is the inheritance assessment for an Emperor-grade alchemist really that simple?
Ruan Xiyan conjured a Glazed Demon Flame in her hand and tentatively swung it beneath the Chenyue Cauldron, causing it to emit light.
In an instant, the flames went out, and the Chenyue Cauldron fell silent once more.
Ruan Xiyan's expression changed slightly. This test was indeed not simple. Her Glazed Demon Flame was extremely powerful, and it was more than enough to ignite a medicine cauldron.
Not only did they fail to ignite the alchemy cauldron, but the flames of the Glazed Demon Flame also went out, something that had never happened before.
Ruan Xiyan intensified the power of the Glazed Demon Flame in her hand and continued to pour it into the Chenyue Cauldron.
Each time it was injected, the Chenyue Cauldron would light up for a moment and then go out. With each attempt, the flame would go out again and again.
Let alone igniting the Chenyue Cauldron, even keeping the flames inside it from going out is a problem.
Ruan Xiyan looked thoughtful. What's going on?
She looked around at the palace, whose roof and walls were openwork, allowing outside light to shine through the gaps and making the entire palace very bright.
Ruan Xiyan wondered why the palace was built like this; could there be a deeper meaning behind it?
She walked back and forth in the palace, observing the openwork walls and ceilings.
Ruan Xiyan remembered what Hei Yi had reminded her of: this Emperor-grade alchemist loved stars, and even the array on the barrier was a star array.
Could the inheritance assessment also be related to the stars?
Stars only appear at night. Ruan Xiyan looked outside and saw that the sun had already set and the sky was gradually darkening.
Ruan Xiyan stood there and waited for a while until the moonlight rose.
Under the moonlight, blue flames flickered within the palace.
"Starfire?!" Ruan Xiyan exclaimed in surprise.
The spark of Starfire still exists here. Starfire only appears under moonlight and is extremely rare, yet it is here.
Ruan Xiyan glanced at the blue flames, then looked at the Chenyue Cauldron in front of her.
The power in her hand enveloped the starlight flames, and after seizing a wisp of drifting blue flame, she sent it into the Chenyue Cauldron.
The ancient Chenyue Cauldron began to emit light, and this time the flames did not go out.
"So only the fire of stars can ignite the Moon Cauldron," Ruan Xiyan murmured.
Several streams of power shot out from her hands, grabbing at the starfire in the air and sending the captured starfire into the Chenyue Cauldron.
The more Starfire is injected, the brighter the light on the Chenyue Cauldron becomes.
Finally, all the starlight merged into the Chenyue Cauldron, causing it to emit a dazzling light.
Ruan Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the Chenyue Cauldron had been lit, the next step was to pick it up.
She stepped forward, cupped the Chenyue Cauldron in both hands, and tried to lift it up. The moment she touched it, her palms were scorched by the intense flames. She cried out in pain and instinctively pulled her hands back.
The Starfire was poured into the Moon Cauldron, and its power seemed to increase, as if they were originally one and interdependent.
The starlight flames leaped and raged wildly within the Moon Cauldron.
Ruan Xiyan's hands were covered with a thick layer of frost as she tried to reach for the alchemy cauldron again.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"
As the flames collided with the frost, a sound was made, and at the same time, the frost melted into flowing water.
