Chapter 469 “One of the Three Great Schools: Immortal Jade Garden (p1)”

Moving at breakneck speed, it was astonis.h.i.+ng in how amazingly fast they were going in light of the deep chasm directly below their feet.

Due to how sharp the winds were slicing past their ears, it became increasingly harder for their voices to reach each other. However, that only lasted for a couple of minutes before their feet’s were firmly planted on the ground again.

Apparently Wu Chong was no stranger to this place and could easily recognize the directions in which they need to go for.

“Hold up, you still haven't explained the part about why must we break into the forbidden grounds of the Immortal Jade Garden.” Ling Yue still hasn’t fully grasped onto the reasoning for their secret venture.

“Nine Phoenix Change is a special skill originating from the Phoenix race itself so its true value is far superior to a fifth grade technique that other’s taken it for. Firstly, you must understand that there are three different levels that one can master within this martial technique. The entry being the refinement of one’s body called the Third Flame, it’s capable of giving the cultivator a powerful const.i.tution at the level of a reincarnation master. The second being the Sixth Flame that will give the user immunity to the all kinds of flames and speed equivalent to a true phoenix in flight. Lastly, correlating to its name, the Ninth Flame will give the user the ability to be reborn anew into a whole new existence,” Wu Chong carefully explains the key elements without missing a beat.

Its common sense that the bodies of the spirit beasts are far superior to that of the human race, let alone the bodies of a sacred beast!

But just when the girl was musing over her own fortune, the hand wrapped around her waist suddenly increased its tension and caused her to gasp out in pain.

“I haven't finished yet, why are you interrupting me. Although the Nine Phoenix Change is strong, it also means that the requirement in achieving said results are extremely harsh as well. In addition to requiring the user to train in both the internal mantra as well as the martial moves, the cultivator must also obtain the flame of a true phoenix to bath in it. This is no easy task, just the lowest entry level of the Nine Phoenix Change would require the user to endure the hazing of nine flaming sessions to achieve the requirement of the Third Flame, followed by thirty six and eighty one for the following tiers afterwards.” Speaking up to here, the man halts his words for a moment: “On the whole continent, in addition to the nest of the Phoenix Clan itself where most of them reside, there’s only one other pure-blooded phoenix that I know of and that is here in this Immortal Jade Garden. That ancient fire phoenix has the needed flame you need. That’s why we are here, to steal its flame.”

“No wait, Wu Chong, if we need a fire of a phoenix then why couldn’t I just ask Little Crow for it? She’s a genuine phoenix so why must we look elsewhere when there’s one so close?”

“Are you sure that one of yours is a phoenix?” Snorting at the claim, Wu Chong narrows in his eye like he’s not believing her, “Whatever kind of person will raise whatever kind of spirit beast. That scrawny black chicken of yours is hardly worthy to be called a phoenix yet. Maybe in another hundred or five hundred years then it can call itself a true phoenix, that’s when it will produce its own genuine place unique to itself. Anything else you might see now is nothing more than a subpar copy of its true nature.”

Unable to resist the urge, Ye Ling Yue began kicking the man’s knee in frustration, This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, would it kill him to not be so foul?

“Little Crow is a very rare Illusionary Phoenix, just that she was attacked by a python while she was still in her egg, hence the reason why she’s inherently deficient.” She argues back, defending her friend furiously to only be ignored.
