Deity Hero: Me! Gaining Disciples Makes Me Stronger! Chapter 131

"Alright, I agree."
"Mission Accomplished Reward: pill furnace's alchemy memories have been received."
Frowning slightly, Xuan Yi sank his consciousness into the pill furnace's alchemy memories, just for a moment.
The world in front of him changed.
With a monstrous power, it crashed onto the ground with a bang. The earth trembled, and the ground split from the impact of the alchemy furnace. The depths of the Earth's core was burning. Flames erupted and shot up into the sky.
A terrifying figure stood in the air with a smirk on his face. He stretched out his hand slightly, and the pill furnace slowly rotated. A strong vacuum from below devoured all the Earth's core flames, turning them into burning flames that lit up within the pill furnace.
Xuan Yi's pupils constricted. He saw an endless amount of incantations shooting out from this person's hand and entering the pill furnace. It let out a clanging sound, and a magical treasure filled with spiritual energy shot out from the person's sleeve and flew straight into the pill furnace.
After an unknown amount of time, the pill furnace trembled. A wisp of aura actually caused the sky to change. Layers of dark clouds covered the sky, and there were even lightning bolts flashing angrily before smashing down in the next instant
"BOOM!"
The pill furnace shattered, and a few medicinal pills were left behind. They absorbed the spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth and the power from the lightning. And as if they had a spirit, they tore through the air and disappeared.
The people of the later generations will never know who you are. Remember to pass on my legacy of wind...
Scene after scene of refining pills, as well as the Alchemist Zun Zi's vision, the alchemy experience began to flow into Xuan Yi's mind.
As the scene disappeared, Xuan Yi shook his head gently while in a daze. He seemed to have learned something, but it also seemed like he didn't know anything.
After obtaining all of the pill refining memories of a seventh rank alchemist, if one were to talk about pill refining theories, he would already be a quasi-master level figure. However, the memories were only the memories of alchemist. If Xuan Yi wanted to turn them into his own, he still needed some time to refine and master them.
Right now, he could barely be considered a master in theory.
Seventh Rank Alchemist.
Terrifying!
Xuan Yi put away his thoughts, but there was still shock in his eyes.

A first grade spirit pill corresponded to the Qi condensation stage, a second grade corresponded to the foundation establishment stage, and a third grade corresponded to the Golden Core. In the Southern Domain, a third grade spirit pill could already be auctioned off at a decent price. A fourth grade corresponded to the Divine Ability Stage, but it remains something that can only be inherited from the clan, they would still treat a fourth grade alchemist cultivator as a treasure.
Grade five was a law enforcement cultivator, grade six corresponded to the cult master stage, and Grade Seven corresponded to the sage stage experts.
Basically, the existence of a grade five alchemist was already very terrifying. A grade six alchemist was a big deal. As for grade seven, Xuan Yi had never heard of it before.
The level of an alchemist was already harder to obtain than that of a cultivator. Thus, grade five and above were considered a rare breed.
Seventh grade was an existence that Xuan Yi could not even imagine.
Xuan Yi shook his head. In the memories of the pill furnace, once one reached the seventh grade, they would be called Venerables!
Similarly, if one wanted to refine pills of this level, it was very difficult to just have the memories. At the very least, one's cultivation level should not be too low. Otherwise, while cultivating the pill, one would not be able to escape death.
Xuan Yi's gaze was strange. Perhaps he could attempt to refine some single eyes.
Before this, whenever Song Qing Xin used to ask Xuan Yi some questions about alchemy, Xuan Yi could never answer them.
This is great. Having obtained the memories of a Grade Seven Alchemist, he can now hold his own against Song Qing Xin.
It felt like a long time had gone by when you accept the memories, but in the real world, only a few moments had passed.
When Xuan Yi came back to his senses, he was stunned to find that there were already many people around him. The aura of these people was at least at the half-step cult master realm. They were all looking at him as if they were looking at rare animals.
There were also some people who had heard the commotion and subconsciously rushed over from the Xuan family. It was obvious that they had heard about Xuan Yuan and the matter of Xuan Yi being the successor of the Xuan family.

All of them had looks of doubt on their faces, or their eyes were filled with coldness.
Due to Xuan Yuan being present, no one said anything. They only looked at Xuan Yi coldly.
At this moment, Xuan Yuan saw that almost everyone he invited is here.
"I hereby announce that from today onwards, Xuan Yi will be the Xuan family's heir appointed by Xuan Yuan!"
Xuan Yuan's eyes shone brightly. "After you become the Xuan family's patriarch, with a single command, the entire Xuan family will answer to your call no matter where they are!"
Xuan Yi smiled when he heard that. He did not need the Xuan family's people to answer his calls. It was simply enough for him if they give him a quiet training ground.
In the crowd, Xuan Tian and the others looked at each other. Their breathing was rapid, and they clenched their fists. They could see through each other's thoughts.
Because they had come all the way here, they didn't see Xuan Yi and Xuan Yuan's fight. At this moment, they only felt baffled.
What exactly was Xuan Yi's strength? He actually became the Xuan family's successor just by coming here.
No matter how powerful he was, could he be as powerful as Xuan Ying?
Could he be powerful enough to hold his own against Xuan Tian, who was at the third level of the law enforcement realm?
They were unconvinced.
It was fine for the others because no matter what, whether Xuan Tian became the Xuan family's successor or the others, it didn't matter much to them.
Because no matter what happens, they will never be in the running to become the Xuan family's successor.
Joining the Xuan family and relying on the Xuan family's resources to train was already something that they, who had been suffering in the past, didn't dare to imagine.
They knew how to be grateful with whatever they were given!
They just felt that it was strange that Xuan Yi did not show any signs of transformation from boarding on the trans-regional ship. Everyone had even subconsciously ignored Xuan Yi's existence. Now, he had suddenly become the Xuan family's successor?
Xuan Tian and Xuan Ying, who seemed to have the potential to compete and had already shown their talents on the trans-regional ship, felt more and more indignant the more they thought about it.
Previously, with the family head around, they had tried their best not to say anything. Now that they had returned to their residences, they felt extremely uncomfortable.
"What's going on with Xuan Yi?"
"We shouldn't talk about Xuan Yi no matter what."
If it was one of Xuan Tian and Xuan Ying, the two of them would definitely not have any complaints. But who is Xuan Yi?
They had only just found out about Xuan Yi's existence.
Xuan Yi's performance on the trans-regional ship was very low-key.
In their eyes, how could Xuan Yi be the successor!
They thought the successor to the Xuan clan could only be either Xuan Tian or Xuan Ying.
But now, the two of them felt that they had lost inexplicably.
It was like entering a competition. But before the start was announced, the organizers had already announced the winner. The other party basically had a walkover and stood on the stage to claim his victory.
What was going on?
If it was a fair competition, Xuan Tian and Xuan Ying weren't people who couldn't afford to lose.
However, the revered Xuan family of the Heaven region was a legendary family whose leadership and power been passed down for generations. The selection of the successor was extremely important.
How could they casually give it to someone whose abilities aren't even recognized.
On the other side, in the Xuan family's hall.
"Men!"
Xuan Yuan sat on a chair, and there was a cup of spiritual tea on the table in front of him.
He took a sip, and his eyes were full of smiles.
"Those brats are definitely not convinced. Then the few people who brought them back, go and inform them about the situation. They are all disciples of the Xuan family."
The few ushers smiled and cupped their hands.
In the next moment, they arrived at the residence.
In front of Xuan Tian, the ushers gradually revealed themselves.
"Are you unconvinced?"
Xuan Tian contemplated while struggling internally whether or not to be honest about his feelings, but in the end, he said resolutely, "I am unconvinced. What ability does Xuan Yi possess to be so selected over us to become the Xuan family's successor?"
A trace of admiration flashed across the old man's face. Even under immense pressure, Xuan Tian is able to express his opinion clearly. This Xuan Tian, not a bad chap.

The Sun's Remnant
Two people are transported to a world with magic, but it is no Wonderland. When the god of light died, he decided to take the world with him. At least, that’s what many believe in the Kingdom of Rhine, a once vast kingdom of which only a small corner remains — and even that is threatened. On one side, by the Twisted Forest, a corruption spreading from the deathplace of the gods that has already swallowed up most of Rhine. On the other, by the resurgent Kagrathan Empire, resurrected by the infallible God-Emperor Karlatz. A holy order of knights carry out their mission despite the death of their god. A band of talented misfits prepare for a heist out of their league — by stealing. Mages hunt for secrets even as the world ends. A ruler does what must be done to save the living, no matter the cost. Into this world of magic and murder, two adrift souls are inexplicably dragged: a mother estranged from her young daughter due to her own mistakes, and a young man with a love of fantasy who has gradually drifted away from his friends and family. As they each struggle to find their place in this world, they must also answer the question: do they want one?***Content Warning: I've drafted about 100,000 words (most of the first volume), and there is no sexual content so far, though I may add it in the future. There is occasionally gore and traumatising content as the story demands. I commit to keeping all of the above non-voyeuristic. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
