After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 380 Meeting

"How can the matter of being a descendant of the Ancestral Phoenix be considered cheating?" The old man glanced at Lin Zhao disapprovingly.

Lin Zhaocai realized that she had inadvertently spoken her true feelings.

He immediately touched his nose somewhat awkwardly and asked, "How prevalent is the Phoenix Heaven Sect in the cultivation world?"

The old man's eyes widened. "How is that possible? Only the descendants of the Creator God have the ability to open such a Heavenly Gate. In the cultivation world today, only three races can open the Heavenly Gate: the Phoenix Heavenly Gate of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, the Dragon Heavenly Gate of the Ancient Dragon Clan, and the Demon Heavenly Gate of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. If the direct descendants of Nuwa and Xihuang had not been wiped out, they should also have been able to open the Yanhuang Heavenly Gate. Unfortunately, a thousand years ago, the Yanhuang lineage disappeared in the Five Emperors Plane, and the Yanhuang Heavenly Gate was forever closed."

Lin Zhao said, "I see. But isn't the Phoenix Heaven Gate supposed to be used by the descendants of the Heavenly Phoenix? Are you perhaps a descendant of the Heavenly Phoenix, senior?"

She couldn't sense any aura of a spirit beast from the old man either!

The old man accepted Lin Zhao's valuable gifts and was very patient with Lin Zhao's questions. After all, Lin Zhao could have asked any cultivator who had stayed in the Holy Phoenix Mountain Range for a while.

"I am naturally not fortunate enough to be a descendant of the Heavenly Phoenix, but the Heavenly Phoenix Gate carries the expectations of the Ancestral Phoenix. The Ancestral Phoenix distributed its power to all living beings in the five planes, so the blessings of the Heavenly Phoenix Gate can naturally affect all living beings in the five planes. The immortal energy when the Heavenly Phoenix Gate opens can help many cultivators who are at the Great Perfection stage break through, and there is no tribulation of lightning. However, the Heavenly Phoenix Gate was summoned by the Golden Phoenix Clan for their ascension, so this time, outsiders who want to advance through the Heavenly Phoenix Gate must be selected by the Golden Phoenix Clan."

Lin Zhao's eyes flickered, as if he understood something: "The Golden Phoenix Clan suppressed the cultivation levels of these outsiders to below the Nascent Soul stage?"

The old man nodded.

"I heard that it was the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's Heavenly Listening that issued this order."

Does the Celestial Phoenix Clan even care about such things?
This surprised Lin Zhao.

"So I came here to try my luck, but it seems I'm not so lucky," the old man sighed.

Lin Zhao asked, "What do you mean?"

"Because it is said that the Golden Phoenix Clan only gave five spots this time, and one of them is already a done deal."

The fact that someone at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage could say such a thing makes it obvious who that person is.

"Ji Wantang?" Lin Zhao asked in surprise.

The old man nodded and laughed, "Who else could it be but her? There are still three days left until the Golden Phoenix Clan selection ends. Ji Wantang appeared a day ago and immediately crippled the first-place winner. You don't know, she even shattered his Nascent Soul."

Lin Zhao took a breath. "That's terrifying."

The old man wholeheartedly agreed: "Who can argue with that? Of the remaining four, one is from the royal family, and the other three each have their own backgrounds and are not to be trifled with. I will not be able to enjoy the blessing of these five spots."

Although opportunities are tempting, you also need to be alive to enjoy them.

For example, the guy who came in first place before was arrogant and proud, but when he met Ji Wantang, his fate was uncertain.

If it weren't for the intervention of the young master of the Golden Phoenix Clan, that number one wouldn't have been able to save his life.

The old man changed the subject, a hint of shrewdness in his voice: "But I'm thinking, even if I can't get those top five spots, I'm near Holy Phoenix Mountain. When the Phoenix Heaven Gate opens, surely I'll get some benefits, right?"

The old man's blatant attempt to take advantage made Lin Zhao smile. She took out two talismans from her spatial ring: "These two are talismans that I developed in my spare time. One is a teleportation talisman, and the other is a protective talisman. I'm giving them to you, senior."

The old man recognized it as a level seven spirit talisman and accepted it with a smile: "It seems that this is the first benefit I've received from standing here."

Lin Zhao laughed and thanked him. Then, the next moment, his phoenix wings opened behind him, and he disappeared from the old man's sight with Jin Ya.

This speed sent a chill down the old man's spine.

The little girl didn't seem to have a very high cultivation level to him, but the speed she displayed at this moment was astonishing.

The old man wiped his sweat, then, as if he had found a treasure, stuffed the talisman and pills into his sleeve: "Hey, this old man really made a profit this time. I told you there were benefits outside, but those old bastards said I was daydreaming!"

……

Lin Zhao led Jin Ya deeper into the Holy Phoenix Mountain Range, but at a certain point, she paused, pulled Jin Ya behind her, her phoenix wings retracted, and the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword appeared in her hand. With a single strike, she cleaved the blood-red phoenix that had suddenly appeared before her. She stared at the girl who had unexpectedly attacked her.

"Ji Wantang, how have you been?"

A young girl in a bright red phoenix robe stood in the air, surrounded by crimson flames, which made her look incredibly beautiful and domineering.

A blood-red longsword hovered beside her. Ji Wantang looked at Lin Zhao not far away and sighed, "You actually came to this point."

Lin Zhao held down the golden bud that was itching to peek out, and gripped the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword: "If you want to fight now, I'll oblige."

Ji Wantang scoffed, a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes: "You think you're my match just because we're both at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage? You're even more arrogant than me. How long have I been at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage? How could you possibly compare?"

After saying this, she did not attack again. Instead, she transformed into a blur of light and disappeared from the spot.

—This is just a clone of Ji Wantang.

Lin Zhao sheathed the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, his expression solemn.

Although Ji Wantang's words were harsh, the sense of danger emanating from her, even though it was just a clone, made her subconsciously summon the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword, showing that Ji Wantang was not entirely underestimating her opponent.

This opponent is far more unfathomable than I imagined.

But having come this far, when it really comes down to a fight, Lin Zhao isn't necessarily that afraid.

Jin Ya asked, "Where to now?"

Lin Zhao sensed something and looked towards a point; "There."

"how do you know?"

Lin Zhao said, "Huang Yun told me that most of what it lost was there."

Upon hearing this, Jin Ya stopped talking and followed behind Lin Zhao, arriving at Lin Zhao's destination at an alarming speed in half a day.

There was only a wooden door at the entrance, where two maids in green robes greeted Lin Zhao, saying, "You've come for the Phoenix Heavenly Gate? Your cultivation level is quite impressive. How do you intend to enter?"

Lin Zhao raised an eyebrow: "There are different ways to get in?"

The round-faced maid in blue, who seemed easy to talk to, smiled and said, "Of course there are. There are three ways to get in. The first way is that you use your methods to prevent the two gatekeepers from noticing that you've entered. The people inside will then guide you to the appropriate location based on your methods."

Lin Zhao could not sense the cultivation levels of these two elder sisters, so he knew that they were at least Nascent Soul stage experts.

Although she wasn't afraid of offending a Nascent Soul cultivator, she also didn't want to provoke the local bully, so she asked, "Anything else?"

The maid with the pointed face and somewhat fierce appearance said, "There is a second option: if you beat us, we will take you directly to the place where you compete for the top five spots."

Lin Zhao thought to himself, "After I defeat the two Nascent Soul cultivators, even if I win and go in, it won't be easy for me to fight the other four."

"What's another one?"

"Here's something for you," the round-faced maid said with a smile. "Give us nice things, make us happy, and we'll decide where to take you based on how happy we are."

Is this okay? !

Lin Zhao and Jin Ya exchanged a glance.

"Which one do you choose?" the round-faced maid asked with a smile. "I can sense that you are quite capable. Would you like to choose the second one?"

Lin Zhao took out two bottles of pills from his spatial ring: "I choose the third one."
