What appeared before Liu Xi and Little Fairy Doctor was a towering, precipitous mountain range.
This mountain has towering peaks, continuous bird flight, cliffs, and deep ravines.
At first glance, the scenery looks quite nice.
But upon closer inspection, it's clear that it's not a suitable place for human habitation.
At this moment, as the sun was setting, bathed in the golden afterglow, Liu Xi and his companion saw thousands upon thousands of second-tier magical beasts, Fire Poison Bees, buzzing and swirling around the towering mountain peaks.
There are also third- and fourth-tier flying magical beasts that nest on the various precipitous peaks.
This place is not a place for alchemists to pass on their skills; it's just a lair for a bunch of flying magical beasts.
However, since they were already there, the two of them were determined to explore the area.
Liu Xi held Little Fairy Doctor in his arms and carefully circled the huge and treacherous mountain range.
Soon, they saw the cliff top, the rift in the sky, that Clinton alchemist had described.
At the very top of the cliff, there is a crack in the sky.
On the upper half of the towering cliff, there is a huge crack that splits in the middle.
Go through this huge crack, and you'll find the place of inheritance that Alchemist Clinton spoke of.
However, upon seeing that enormous rift in the sky, one could see thousands upon thousands of second-tier magical beasts, Fire Poison Bees, hovering around its edge.
Liu Xi, still admitting defeat, retreated with Little Fairy Doctor.
Second-tier magical beast, Fire Poison Bee.
They weren't particularly strong to begin with.
Although its fire poison can also kill a Fighting Master.
However, in terms of individual strength, any person with a Dou Shi level of five or above could easily defeat it.
Its true terror lies in its ability to travel in large numbers.
If you anger them, thousands or even tens of thousands of second-tier magical beasts, Fire Poison Bees, will swarm and attack you.
Even if you are a fighting king, you cannot escape their clutches.
Rumor has it that there really was a fire-attribute fighting king who coveted the flaming honey of the second-tier magical beast, the Fire Poison Bee.
Bravely venture into the lair of the second-tier magical beast, the Fire Poison Bee, and steal its fiery honey.
Finally, he was stung to death by thousands upon thousands of fire bees.
These fire poison bees are infamous and are a rare breed among low-level magical beasts.
Fortunately, the fire-poison bees were too much for Liu Xi to handle.
The alchemist Clinton also left other options for those destined to inherit his legacy.
The alternative is to feign an attempt to advance one route while secretly advancing another.
Below the cliff, in an inconspicuous place, lies a winding cave that leads to the site of his legacy.
Following the clues left by Alchemist Clinton, Liu Xi spent more than half an hour finally finding another way out left by Alchemist Clinton.
Good heavens, this dark, shady cave, occupied by two second-tier magical beasts, the Black Flame Pythons, is your way out?
Fortunately, Liu Xi had already broken through to the Great Dou Master level, and his combat power was invincible at the Great Dou Master level.
In no time at all, they dealt with the two black flame pythons that were entangled together in the dark cave.
Having obtained the two second-tier beast flames, Liu Xi swallowed them without hesitation.
The second-tier beast fire had little effect on him.
However, it slightly strengthened his golden flame battle aura.
Something is better than nothing.
Following the route indicated by Alchemist Clinton, Liu Xi led Little Fairy Doctor, darting left and right through the dark cave.
Finally, after about half an hour, a cool, bright light appeared in their sight.
"arrive!"
Liu Xi, accompanied by Little Fairy Doctor, followed the light and pushed open a huge stone door that was four or five meters thick.
In an instant, the bright light illuminated the figures of Liu Xi and Little Fairy Doctor.
Wow! What a huge cave!
Little Fairy Doctor stared in amazement at the enormous cave that had suddenly appeared.
This is a bright and huge cave, tens of meters wide, tens of meters high, and tens of meters long.
It is countless times larger than the stone chamber cave discovered by Little Fairy Doctor.
More than a hundred moonstones are also embedded in the surrounding rock walls.
The cool light poured into the entire cave, allowing Liu and Xi to see the scene inside clearly.
A huge, heavy, and ancient-looking alchemy cauldron was placed in the very center of the cave.
Upon seeing the alchemy cauldron, Liu Xi knew without a doubt that it was a sixth-order alchemy cauldron.
Below the alchemy cauldron, there were many jade bottles and boxes, as well as many dried medicinal herbs.
There are also some neatly arranged antique scrolls.
But what is most eye-catching are several huge, transparent jade bottles.
"Strange Fire!"
Liu Xi's breathing suddenly became rapid.
"No, it's beast fire!"
Four or five bottles of beast fire of different colors were placed next to the alchemy cauldron in the most conspicuous position.
"Young master, look!"
At this moment, Little Fairy Doctor hurriedly tugged at Liu Xi's sleeve.
Liu Xi followed her gaze and looked over.
Inside the enormous cave, a huge stone bed lay quietly.
On the stone bed, several items were also placed.
Liu and Xi walked over, and a red animal hide covered in dust caught their attention.
The two men picked up the animal hide, shook off the dust, and the vigorous, powerful characters appeared on it.
"Fated one, now that you have seen this animal hide, it proves that you have found my secluded place by following my guidance..."
"Throughout my life, I have been of mediocre talent. I only broke through to the Dou Zhe realm in my twenties, and was still only at the Dou Shi realm in my thirties. It was only in my forties that I became a Da Dou Shi thanks to the help of elixirs..."
"I refused to accept my fate. Ever since I learned that I had a talent for alchemy, I devoted myself to studying the art, hoping to use it to make up for my lack of talent. Hard work pays off. Through alchemy, I broke through to the Dou Ling realm and then to the Dou Wang realm..."
"But human strength has its limits, and potential has its limits. After breaking through to the Dou Wang realm, my potential was exhausted. No matter how much I struggled, it was as difficult as climbing to the heavens. When I suddenly realized what was happening, I was already very old..."
"I'm leaving. I'm leaving this place where I've been in seclusion for decades. My body doesn't need to be collected by anyone. I'm going to see the world until one day I can no longer walk and die somewhere in a deserted place."
This Mr. Clinton was an ordinary person struggling among the masses.
He wanted to defy fate and change his destiny; he succeeded in rewriting it, and he also failed.
When he finally came to his senses and wanted to experience the joys of worldly ethics, he was already old.
He refused to let anyone collect his body; even on his deathbed, he retained a sense of magnanimity.
Liu Xi had no idea how long he had been gone.
But the dust on the stone bed told him that he had been gone for a long time.
Perhaps, many years ago, on some unknown day, that old gentleman named Clinton passed away somewhere.
But all of this has nothing to do with Liu Xi, the newcomer.
Little Fairy Doctor, however, had her beautiful eyes redden after reading Clinton's biography.
Her little face looked pitifully at Liu Xi, and she choked out:
"Young master, this old man is so pitiful..."
She thought of herself; before she met Liu Xi, she was also all alone.
Those mercenaries she rescued, and those who hired her from the Wan Yao Zhai, would only regard her as a fleeting memory after she left.
She has a body afflicted by misfortune and poison. Perhaps one day, she will be all alone, bearing the scorn of the world, and leaving this world in a desolate state.
The more she thought about it, the sadder she became...
