Huo Lingjun continued forming hand seals with both hands, sweat beading her forehead.

As she focused on refining this final inheritance, a pleasant voice sounded next to her ear: "The way you're refining is too crude, too outdated. Aren't you tired?"

The voice was so close, it felt like it was right by her ear. Huo Lingjun shivered all over and suddenly turned her head, only to see a figure slowly sitting next to her.

"Chu Nan, how is it possible, how did you get in here!" Huo Lingjun's heart raced, her expression aghast.

She thought she was seeing an illusion, but the powerful perception of a Divine Light Realm Martial Artist told her that the Chu Nan before her was indeed a living person.

She saw black light swirl around Chu Nan's entire body, his eyes revealing an indescribably formidable majesty.

The supreme aura cultivated by the strongest in the lower realm was not something that Huo Lingjun, who rose thanks to her family's blessings, could compare to.

Chu Nan sat cross-legged in meditation, clearly at eye level with Huo Lingjun, yet with an overwhelming sense of superiority.

Huo Lingjun stared at Chu Nan, inexplicably feeling that Chu Nan had become immensely lofty, and she, in his presence, seemed like an ant overlooking a mountain.

"Frog at the bottom of a well, the Martial Dao is vast like the ocean, with your knowledge you wouldn't understand even if I told you."

Chu Nan completely ignored Huo Lingjun, choosing not to directly attack her.

Because fighting her here wasn't worthwhile; even Chu Nan at this moment couldn't deal with Huo Lingjun who had the foundation of the Imperial Capital.

Kui Guang didn't want to waste the strength he had painstakingly accumulated on meaningless combat.

Kui Guang manipulated Chu Nan's body, continuing to form hand seals, as black light transformed into threads that directly pierced into the Fossil Man.

With the injection of black light, the entire Fossil Man began to tremble, emitting crisp cracking sounds, as if something was trying to burst out from the Fossil Man.

Huo Lingjun could no longer hold her emotions. She was horrified to find that the inheritance before them was being refined at a terrifyingly visible speed.

She had spent all her heart power and seven days had only refined less than half, while Chu Nan managed to refine a tenth within a few breaths!

"No, this inheritance is mine!"

Huo Lingjun dared not completely let go to deal with Chu Nan, as stopping her efforts would render her past hard work in vain.

Focusing all her Cultivation, Huo Lingjun fully committed to refining the Fossil Man, striving to seize the inheritance first.

But how could she possibly be a match for Chu Nan in his current state?

Within a mere tea's time, Chu Nan had refined three tenths, soon catching up to Huo Lingjun.

"Bastard!" Huo Lingjun cursed wildly, completely losing her composure.

However, Chu Nan's expression remained unchanged, continuing to form seals. As the black light grew brighter, the tremors of the Fossil Man became more pronounced.

After an incense stick, Chu Nan's refining reached five tenths, while Huo Lingjun also refined half at this point.

In that instant, the chains binding the Fossil Man shattered with a loud roar, and fierce cracks appeared on the surface of the Fossil Man.

Accompanied by the explosion of a beam of golden light, the entire Fossil Man burst into fragments from within.

At this moment, everyone's gaze was drawn to the scene on the altar.

Chu Nan and Huo Lingjun faced off from either side of the altar, with a human-head-sized glowing mass floating between them.

This glowing mass was half black like ink, half blazing like fire.

They both continued forming seals, operating their Cultivation to vie for ownership of this final inheritance.

But it was undoubtedly an uncontested battle; under Chu Nan's control, the black light continued eroding the flames at a visible speed.

Huo Lingjun's beautiful eyes turned fierce, gritting her teeth.

Her delicate face was covered with bulging veins, no longer maintaining previous composure, the whole person had become hysterical.

She was horrified to find that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't compete with Chu Nan. The parts she refined were being eroded by the black light step by step, leaving only four tenths of her share.

Knowing she would lose everything if she continued this way, Huo Lingjun furiously declared: "If I can't have it, no one can!"

Chu Nan furrowed his brow, guessing what Huo Lingjun intended to do.

Bang!

With those words, Huo Lingjun's aura surged, and following the completion of another complex hand seal, the flame portion of the glowing mass directly separated.

The complete Gui Yi Realm inheritance, under Huo Lingjun's control, actually split in two!

In order not to let Chu Nan get it all, she forcibly divided the part she controlled.

With one hand she grabbed the flame, a Jade Person with only the lower half fell into her palm.

Chu Nan felt a bit helpless, but there was nothing he could do. The portion Huo Lingjun claimed wasn't small; if she forcibly divided, he had no choice.

Retaking the six tenths he possessed, a Jade Person with only the upper half rested in Chu Nan's hand.

Anyone with discerning eyes could see at a glance that the Jade Person in Chu Nan's hand was noticeably larger than Huo Lingjun's.

Both of them simultaneously put away the Jade Person, as the protective barrier of the altar slowly dissipated, no longer obstructing outsiders from entering.

"Chu Nan, the inheritance has helped you acquire it; from now on it's on you." Kui Guang remarked, leaving without hesitation from Chu Nan's body, restoring Chu Nan's control over his body.

The feeling of being controlled by Kui Guang was very peculiar, watching his body move as if observing everything from above.

Now returning to his flesh, he felt inexplicably grounded.

"Looks like I should limit allowing Kui Guang to control my body in the future." Chu Nan contemplated silently.

On the other side, Huo Lingjun stared intently at Chu Nan, her face expressionless: "I didn't expect it, didn't expect that after all these years preparing in Cyan Profound Mansion for the Gui Yi Realm inheritance, I'd lose to you."

"But it doesn't matter, killing you, I can still obtain the complete inheritance."

Below the altar, Zhang Guangyao was shivering, though Huo Lingjun showed no expression, he could already feel her overwhelming killing intent.

Chu Nan looked at Huo Lingjun, his expression indifferent: "These words are exactly what I wanted to say to you."

At that moment, the Guardian Sword Puppet slowly walked to Chu Nan, steadfastly standing behind him.

Huo Lingjun's expression gradually darkened: "Do you think a mere Divine Illumination Realm ninth level puppet is enough to deal with me?"

"You underestimate the Imperial Capital Martial Artists; this Sword Puppet is incapable of defeating me."

With a casual gesture, accompanied by a booming sound, an immensely bloody aura began to permeate the cave.

Chu Nan's eyes slightly widened as he saw a massive, blood-red lizard Demon Beast.

This Demon Beast had a fierce face, scale armor entirely blood-red, eyes emitting a green eerie glow, especially its sharp claws, resembling sharp steel blades.

Most astonishingly, its Cultivation was also at the Divine Illumination Realm ninth level!

Beside Huo Lingjun, there was unexpectedly a Demon Beast Guardian of the Divine Illumination Realm ninth level, which was simply unbelievable.
