Chapter 18
Calculating the time, Madamâs manic period should have passed. Iâll go and see if the Scarlet Python that carries my bloodline has appeared.
After thinking for a moment, Scarlet Flame Demon King slowly left.

In the underground cave, after an hour of assessment, the Chen family gathered together again.
âFamily Head, I agree with your idea of collecting martial arts. In my opinion, not only are offensive martial arts and movement techniques equally important, but defensive martial arts are also important.â
Chen Xuan covered his slightly purple cheeks with a hateful expression.
âWhat the First Elder said is true. Itâs not just martial arts. The cultivation of your natal beast and the equipment on your spiritual artifacts have to be displayed openly.â Chen Yang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Later, they looked at each other and sighed together.
âAlas!â
âTell me, how did you all fail?â Chen Yang looked at everyone.
âIâll go first. Mine is the inheritance of a blacksmith. However, before accepting the inheritance, I have to undergo a small test. That is to defeat a puppet at the peak of Qi Refinement.â
âI was puzzled. Why does an alchemist have to check his own strength? In the end, people say that if you canât even swing a hammer, how can you become a grandmaster refiner?â
âMine is even more ridiculous. The alchemist assessment said that if your strength is not strong, what if your furnace explodes in the future?â
âMy inheritance of an array master is similarâŠâ
After hearing everyoneâs complaints, Chen Yang nodded. âIn that case, in the first round of inheritance, we have to defeat the puppets at the peak of Qi Refinement before we can accept the inheritance.â
âIn that case, the first round of inheritance isnât too precious. Our Chen family should be able to digest it.â
âWhy donât we go back and increase our strength first? In any case, the strength of this puppet wonât change. When we become stronger, we can accept this first round of inheritance,â Chen Xuan suggested.
Chen Xuanâs words caught Chen Yangâs attention. Only then did I realize that even the First Elder who broke through the Genesis Realm had failed.
Sensing Chen Xuanâs slightly suspicious gaze, Chen Xuan blushed and stammered, âFamily Head, you know me.â
Although Iâve broken through to the Genesis Realm, I donât have good martial arts, hence I canât unleash the advantage of being a Genesis Realm expert.â
âBesides, my natal beast is only at the late-stage of level one. Itâs useless.â
âBut Family Head, donât worry. When I return, I will definitely find a powerful martial art. At that time, the one lying on the ground will be that puppet.â
A smile appeared on Chen Yangâs face. âFirst Elder, I didnât say anything.â
When Chen Xuan heard this, his face turned even redder. He waved his hand repeatedly. âGo back, go back. Our families must be waiting anxiously.â
Immediately, after a discussion, they decided to go back and rest before returning to accept the inheritance.
At the same time, other than Chen Yang and Chen Xuan, the others had all sworn an oath not to tell outsiders about this place.
As for the Chen family, they could only be informed after the familyâs assessment and with the approval of the family head.
âSenior, we know that our strength is low. We plan to go back and increase our strength first before coming back for the assessment.â
Before leaving, Chen Yang asked the giant moth for instructions. If he left without permission, who knew what would happen?
âTake the map. It records the entrance to the maze and the way to enter. You can increase your strength without worry. Iâve already waited for so long. A few more years wonât make a difference.â
Accompanied by a light sound, a map floated in front of Chen Yang.
After putting away the map, Chen Yang cupped his hands at the giant moth again. âSenior, weâll take our leave!â
Then, under Chen Yangâs lead, the Chen family left the dome one after another and entered the tunnel, slowly leaving the land of inheritance.
After there was no one around, a light voice sounded again, âSoon, it wonât be long before I break free from the shackles of this damn place.â
âThose bastards at the Cliff of Beasts must be surprised that Iâm still alive. MooâŠâ
Outside the ruins, looking at the scorching sun above his head, Chen Yang wanted to roar to vent his excitement.
âFinally out!â
In the end, Chen Yang couldnât help but roar.
Although there were many treasures in this land of inheritance, there was a huge beast staring at them from above. This treasure did not feel that good anymore.
âEveryone, rest up. Letâs leave quickly. Otherwise, that giant snake will probably come again.â Chen Yang did not know that the Spirit Eye Python had already been killed, so he immediately urged everyone to leave.
Immediately, under Chen Yangâs lead, the Chen family urged their Gale Wolves to quickly escape.
âEh? Family Head Chen, youâre still alive?â
After walking for about ten miles or so, Chen Yang bumped into someone he knew. He looked up and saw that not far to his right was the group led by the Song family.
âHmph! This guy is quite lucky!â Seeing Chen Yang and the others return, Gongsun Miao snorted coldly and turned his head away.
Hearing Family Head Song call him, Chen Yang hurriedly urged the Gale Wolf forward. âFamily Head Song, you donât know what we encountered. Good lord, itâs a Demon Venerable-level demon beast!â
âIf that demon beast hadnât stopped chasing us, I probably wouldnât have been able to see you again.â
Hearing Chen Yangâs sobbing voice, Family Head Song grinned awkwardly.
Good lord, this personâs luck was so different from others. On their side, the Spirit Eye Python was fighting desperately, while on Chen Yangâs side, the Spirit Eye Python could not even be bothered to chase after them.
Family Head Song did not doubt Chen Yangâs words. After all, the Chen family was not the first family to escape.
The Gongsun family, the Mo family, and the Lin family also stopped chasing after the Spirit Eye Python.
However, what Family Head Song did not know was that the Spirit Eye Python did not intend to let the Chen family off. It was just that it was separated by the maze and had no choice but to give up. It was still different from the other families.
âItâs good that we survived. The various families suffered casualties during this hunt. The people of Nanyang County will not forget us.â
âWhen we get back, Iâll report this to the county governor and have him report this to the state magistrate to reward everyone.â
Seeing that Chen Yang was still planning to complain,Family Head Song quickly comforted him.
âThank you, Family Head Song!â Immediately, all the family heads thanked him. This was a pleasant surprise. Family Head Song was really a good person.
Under the lead of the Song family, the group rushed back. They finally returned to the family before the end of the year and did not miss the ancestral worship ceremony.
However, what these families did not know was that the Scarlet Flame Demon King arrived here a few days after they left.
Looking at the remains of the Spirit Eye Python, the Scarlet Flame Demon King roared at the sky. An aura that swept out for hundreds of miles made the demon beasts in the Endless Mountains tremble.
Then, the Scarlet Flame Demon King came to the Spirit Eye Python Cave. After carefully identifying the aura left behind, a bloodthirsty look flowed in the Scarlet Flame Demon Kingâs beast eyes.
Immediately, the Scarlet Flame Demon King turned around and left.
