6: The Phoenix Inheritance! Lin Fan's Other Opportunity

Yang Yucheng's figure transformed into a Divine Phoenix.

He hovered in mid-air, his clothes completely incinerated, leaving only a few remnants, but at this moment, Yang Yucheng's eyes were bright and clear.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze like that of a god, looking down upon the vast Fengyun Sect.

The heavenly phoenix inheritance was his!

This time, his destiny as a villain, Yang Yucheng, would surely change!

Yang Yucheng thought to himself.

Beside him, the flames erupted, and the surrounding Formation, as it shattered, transformed into streaks of light, appearing around Yang Yucheng, making him appear like a Fire Emperor, a Divine Phoenix of the world!

...

“This sight, he actually obtained it! The heavenly phoenix inheritance!”

“Sect Head Senior Brother, he succeeded!”

On Tianding Peak, Bai Yanyan watched the scene before her, filled with shock.

“Hahahahaha!!!”

A resounding laugh echoed as Great Elder Bai Yuanqi heartily exclaimed, “Before long, our Fengyun Sect will gain another Spirit Venerable Realm expert!”

As he spoke, Bai Yuanqi looked towards Tiancang Peak, one of the Six Peaks.

This was where Mo Bufan, the Second Elder of Fengyun Sect, usually cultivated.

A secluded bamboo forest, with trickling streams everywhere, and swaying bamboo leaves that produced the sound of string and wind instruments!

Upon a large green stone, Mo Bufan let out a long sigh.

“Yang Yucheng, he actually did it!”

Mo Bufan's hair and beard were white, and his eyes were deep, as if containing the wisdom of the world.

Mo Bufan slowly raised his head, looking up at the golden flames in the sky above Fengyun Sect.

At this moment, the flames were dissipating, signaling the birth of another peerless prodigy in Fengyun Sect!

“Perhaps, Fengyun Sect really should be handed over to him. This time, Sect Head Senior Brother, you made the right gamble!”

“Alas!”

Mo Bufan's face showed a hint of regret.

Originally, he had been more optimistic about Lin Fan.

Although Lin Fan's current strength was rather ordinary and his cultivation unremarkable, the potential within him and the terrifying Opportunity that occasionally emerged, all indicated how bright his future prospects were!

In contrast, Yang Yucheng, though he had advanced rapidly and swept all before him within the Sect, ultimately had a bit more impetuousness about him.

Therefore, he had not always been favored by Mo Bufan.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes; the affairs of the world are full of variables.

By today, Mo Bufan had finally let go of his previous thoughts...

“Revered Master, what do we do now? The heavenly phoenix inheritance has truly fallen into Yang Yucheng's hands!”

On Tianding Peak, halfway up the mountain, in a courtyard.

Lin Fan, after bidding farewell to his Revered Master, Grand Elder Bai Yuanqi, and Senior Sister Bai Yanyan, returned here.

Upon entering the courtyard, he activated the surrounding Formation before summoning his Revered Master.

He asked urgently, “Originally, the heavenly phoenix inheritance was already considered to be mine, but now, it has been acquired by my enemy. How can I be reconciled?”

“Revered Master, didn't you say before that the heavenly phoenix inheritance would definitely be mine! But now, that Yang Yucheng has obtained it!”

“Revered Master!”

As he spoke, Lin Fan's words even carried a hint of blame!

His expression was solemn as he looked at the old man before him, momentarily unable to control even his basic Heart-Nature.

Before him, the old man remained silent, merely gazing steadily at Lin Fan.

Gradually, Lin Fan realized his mistake.

He quickly lowered his head.

“Revered Master, I was wrong. I was too anxious.”

Seeing that his Disciple was still able to realize his mistake and repent, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.

“To correct one's mistakes is the greatest good!”

“What if the heavenly phoenix inheritance was luckily obtained by someone else? Your Revered Master knows countless things in the world. Losing the heavenly phoenix inheritance makes you so flustered.”

“How will you be able to become the Supreme of the Northern Region in the future?”

Lin Fan lowered his head, remaining silent.

Seeing this, the old man did not continue to reprimand him.

Then, a mysterious smile played on his lips.

“When did your Revered Master ever say that there is only one heavenly phoenix inheritance in this world?”

“However, only the Fengyun Sect's heavenly phoenix inheritance is considered a top-tier choice, but other places are equally good; if used properly, another one would be stronger, not weaker, compared to the Fengyun Sect's!”

“But it comes with some risks! It's not foolproof!”

Upon hearing this, brilliant light burst forth from Lin Fan's eyes.

He was extremely ambitious, and upon hearing about another heavenly phoenix inheritance, he abruptly looked up at his Revered Master!

Lin Fan's eyes were filled with pleasant surprise.

“Revered Master, is this true?”

With a soft snort, the old man spoke again, “Disciple, when have I ever lied to you?”

Immediately, Lin Fan's expression became excited.

“However,” the old man's tone shifted as he continued, “in that case, we might have to leave Fengyun Sect for now. Are you willing to part with your good Senior Sister?”

The old man's expression held a hint of teasing.

Lin Fan lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, then replied, “Let Revered Master know.”

“If I were but a tiny ant, how could Senior Sister be devoted to me? When the day comes that your Disciple returns with great power, I believe on that day, Senior Sister will finally understand my Heart-Nature.”

“Good!”

Seeing such determination in his Disciple, the old man was satisfied.

He laughed heartily.

“A man, a true man, why worry about not having a wife?”

“When the day comes, let alone the daughter of a mere Fengyun Sect Grand Elder, even a Young Supreme like a Saintess from a Holy Land, a peerless prodigy, would likely have to humble herself before my Disciple.”

“Perhaps she would even offer herself to become a concubine at your side, you rascal!”

Faced with such teasing, Lin Fan felt a slight thrill in his heart.

He nodded heavily, full of anticipation!

...

A majestic main hall.

It was adorned with carved beams and painted pillars, resplendent and magnificent, with golden columns standing tall.

At the very front, in the center, was a carved wall.

On the wall hung a portrait, the Phoenix Art Divine Intention Chart!

With the aid of this chart, cultivation of the Phoenix Art would accelerate by thirty percent.

Only because Yang Yucheng was the Sect Head's Disciple could he enjoy the benefits of such a treasure, and even reach the Spirit King Realm at a young age.

Not to mention, he had now obtained the heavenly phoenix inheritance.

His cultivation path towards the Spirit Emperor Realm would surely be smooth sailing, with no Bottleneck whatsoever!

Beneath the portrait, a person sat cross-legged, and with each rise and fall of his breath, waves of scorching heat emanated all around.

This person was Yang Yucheng.

Yang Yucheng had a handsome face, sword-like eyebrows, and eyes like stars, which at this moment surged with Heavenly Phoenix True Fire!

That's right!

Even the Heavenly Phoenix Fire, which originated after mastering the Phoenix Art, had different levels of superiority and inferiority.

And Heavenly Phoenix True Fire was a further advancement of Heavenly Phoenix Fire.

There were even higher levels above it.

However, one first needed to reach the Spirit Venerable Realm to further advance the flames; otherwise, attempting to do so before then would either result in Qi Deviation or self-immolation!

Yang Yucheng would never do such a foolish thing!

“Is this the heavenly phoenix inheritance?”

Gazing at his left hand, where a small Phoenix formed by flames coiled around his palm, Yang Yucheng revealed a satisfied smile.

With this Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, his own strength directly increased by thirty percent out of nowhere!
