Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 1906 - 1900: Inheritance Formation, Break!

An immeasurable period of time seemed to have elapsed, and as each formation yielded to his efforts, a voice, resonant with antiquity, suddenly filled the once-silent grand hall.

"Future inheritor, I am Chi Yunzi! A millennium separates us, yet our meeting in this manner is truly a profound destiny!"

"Your ability to shatter the inheritance formations I laid signifies your extraordinary aptitude! Your future accomplishments are destined for greatness! Through my legacy, you shall propagate the teachings of the Dao, advancing its myriad methods! Carry forth the wisdom of the past and forge a new future! Bring peace unto the world!"

"Heed my counsels well; never employ my techniques for nefarious purposes!"

...

Chen Yang had, until that moment, been immersed in a miraculous state, intensely engaged in deciphering and dismantling formations without pause.

However, the sudden emergence of this voice instantly drew him out of that profound trance.

Rising to his feet, he scanned the hall, but his eyes found nothing tangible.

The origin of the voice remained a complete mystery to him.

"Could that have been Chi Yunzi's voice?"

Chen Yang recalled the voice identifying itself as Chi Yunzi and deduced that its utterance was likely triggered by his successful breaching of the final formation, activating a residual message left by Chi Yunzi.

With this understanding, Chen Yang promptly knelt in the direction of the hall's central point: "Junior Chen Yang shall forever honor Senior's teachings!"

Chi Yunzi, a formidable cultivator from the pre-Qin era.

Dedicated to the propagation of Daoist principles and the enlightenment of all beings.

For such a noble cause alone, Chen Yang's gesture of respect was fitting, let alone the fact that he had fully inherited his legacy.

Separated by more than two millennia, their voices reaching across such a vast expanse of time, it could be seen as a spiritual connection akin to that between a master and disciple.

This act of reverence was undeniably warranted.

Following his obeisance, Chen Yang began to collect his thoughts.

During the process of dismantling formations, he had been completely enveloped in a state resembling profound enlightenment, his sole focus being the acquisition of formation knowledge and the methods to overcome them, to the exclusion of all else.

Emerging from that state, he now turned his attention to his surroundings.

The formations adorning the niches on either side had all been conquered by his efforts, and the floor was now strewn with numerous books and assorted artifacts!

Yet, Chen Yang merely cast a fleeting glance at these items, his interest quickly waning.

It wasn't that these objects lacked value, but rather, within the last formation niche he had broken, a radiant glow emanated from a particular object.

This luminescence utterly captivated Chen Yang's gaze, leaving no room for him to acknowledge anything else.

Chen Yang moved swiftly towards it, reaching out to retrieve the item from within the niche.

Two objects lay within: an ancient tome and a token!

The tome was bound in aged yellow paper. Despite the passage of over two thousand years, it remained pristine, free from any dust, appearing as if it were new.

The token was unadorned, seemingly crafted from wood.

Nevertheless, it possessed a remarkable density and weight.

Intricate, esoteric patterns were etched upon its surface, interspersed with symbols bearing distinct Taoist significations.

Chen Yang, having had minimal exposure to the Taoist Sect, found himself entirely unfamiliar with these markings.

However, the three straightforward characters inscribed upon it were recognizable to him.

Daoist Command Token!

Though Chen Yang knew little of the Taoist Sect, the sight of these three words filled him with astonishment!

Daoist Command Token?

Could this be Chi Yunzi's token?

The personal artifact of a mighty cultivator in the Divine Phase Realm?

How significant must this be!

Frankly, the instant he clearly deciphered the inscription, Chen Yang's breathing quickened.

He harbored the expectation that this item might unleash immense power.

Alas, his surge of anticipation lasted merely a few fleeting seconds.

Upon careful scrutiny, he discerned that while the token was no ordinary object and held a palpable weight, it exhibited no fluctuations of spiritual power.

He attempted various methods to activate it, seeking to unleash its potential.

Yet, it remained unresponsive.

"This is entirely unlike my imaginings; a Daoist incantation can summon thunder and lightning, a thrown token can produce dazzling flashes and thunderous roars, a swept talisman can achieve wonders, yet why does this not function?" Chen Yang examined the token from every angle, but found no discernible mechanism for activation.

After thoroughly scrutinizing it without success, he decided to set it aside for the moment and turned his attention to the other items.

He was uncertain how many days of tireless study would be required to fully comprehend these findings, but he knew he needed to investigate them in depth.

The piles of books and artifacts within the hall demanded considerable time just for initial organization.

Following a period of sorting, Chen Yang was genuinely amazed by the inheritance within the Red Cloud Cave Mansion.

For these texts contained a vast repository of high-level cultivation techniques, alongside countless other scholarly works.

In essence, it offered comprehensive knowledge, covering virtually every subject imaginable.

It was an unparalleled treasure trove, where items corresponding to any desire could be found.

In addition to the books, a collection of potent elixirs was also present.

Their purpose remained entirely unclear, as there were no labels or indications of what they were for.

Despite the multitude of items, Chen Yang adhered to the prearranged agreement with Taoist Liu, selecting three cultivation techniques.

Within the mountain-like collection of cultivation techniques, a significant number were of the mysterious rank.

There were even a few belonging to the earth rank.

However, their number was small, totaling only two.

Chen Yang made his selection, choosing one titled the Demon Suppression Record.

On its surface, it appeared to be a profound Taoist cultivation technique.

While another might have been a more suitable choice initially, recalling that the Blood Bat Hall practiced wicked techniques, Chen Yang considered that this Demon Suppression Record might prove effective against them, and thus, after some deliberation, he selected it.

The remaining two he chose were a mid-level mysterious rank and a high-level mysterious rank technique.

As for elixirs and other items, Chen Yang took none.

Chen Yang had already thoroughly absorbed the knowledge from the most precious items within the cave mansion, naturally foregoing any greed for the rest.

Ultimately, these were still the treasures belonging to Chi Yun’s lineage, making it unwise to take more than necessary.

Having taken what he deemed appropriate and returning the vast piles of books to their places, he made preparations to depart.

"I wonder, after breaking through this inheritance formation, how much time I have actually spent. During my absence, how has Liuhe Village fared?"

Chen Yang softly mused, stepping out of the Bronze Great Hall.

Upon exiting the hall, he suddenly observed something peculiar.

The distinct regional divisions within the entire cave mansion seemed to have vanished.

"Could this be a consequence of my breaking the inheritance formation?"

Chen Yang surmised this to be the case and, without further contemplation, proceeded down the mountain.

Midway down, the little tiger reappeared, obstructing his path.

Chen Yang had initially presumed this little creature might instigate further trouble.

Unexpectedly, its demeanor had undergone a complete reversal.

"Did you accept the inheritance?" The little tiger regarded Chen Yang with a questioning gaze.

Sensing no hostility from the tiger, Chen Yang offered a smile in greeting.

This little fellow wasn't inherently bad; its previous aggression was merely a defense of the Red Cloud Cave Mansion.

"Yes, I have accepted the inheritance," Chen Yang confirmed with a nod.

Upon hearing this affirmation, the little tiger's eyes visibly brightened.

"Then, when you broke the final formation, did you acquire anything?" the little tiger inquired, looking at Chen Yang with palpable anticipation.

Chen Yang paused, recalling the events with careful consideration.

Upon reflection, he realized there indeed was something.

Aside from selecting the three cultivation techniques, he had also taken the Daoist Command Token from the final chamber, along with that ancient tome with its yellowed pages.

"There is something," Chen Yang admitted, making no attempt to conceal it.

"What is it? Show me," the little tiger urged, its gaze fixed on Chen Yang expectantly.

Feeling no apprehension towards the little tiger, Chen Yang decisively produced the Daoist Command Token and the ancient, yellowed book.

"Just these two!"

The little tiger's gaze was immediately captivated by the Daoist Command Token held in Chen Yang's right hand! Its eyes widened, as if witnessing something of immense significance.
