Huangxiu

Chapter 1231 Guarding
Within this 150-mile radius, the end of this secret place was still nowhere in sight.

There were no signs of human presence, but there were a great many different kinds of animals.

He looked at Li Hongzhao: "Where is Senior Song?"

“Master is in seclusion, he’ll be out soon,” Li Hongzhao said. “I’ve already told him.”

Chu Zhiyuan asked, "Is this secret place similar to the secret places on our side?"

Li Hongzhao said, "It should be a secret place like ours."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly.

It's not surprising that there are secret places in the Lesser Outer Heaven and the Azure Origin Heaven.

"Let's go," Li Hongzhao said.

She transformed into a beam of red light and shot into the distance.

Chu Zhiyuan followed, walking briskly alongside her as he said, "Isn't it a bit lonely here?"

“There are still quite a few people,” Li Hongzhao said.

Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.

Li Hongzhao said, "Most of those who possess the bloodline of the phoenix are inside."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "They're not all royalty, are they?"

“Yes.” Li Hongzhao nodded: “They are all royalty, but only the royalty here has the phoenix bloodline.”

"The lineage of Prince Zhuang?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

“It should be said that Prince Zhuang also belongs to this lineage,” Li Hongzhao said.

After traveling ten miles, the super-sensory group discovered a continuous stretch of pavilions and courtyards.

Built against the mountain, it stretches for more than ten miles.

In the courtyard and pavilion, there were men and women, but all of them were young.

He immediately realized that these men and women were not real young people, but only looked young.

This is eternal youth.

He laughed and said, "Can your phoenix bloodline maintain its youthful appearance forever?"

He noticed that Prince Zhuang didn't seem to be young.

Li Hongzhao said, "Only when one's cultivation reaches a certain level can one regain their youthful appearance."

She then smiled smugly: "With my current cultivation level, I can truly stay young forever."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head with a sigh: "Truly worthy of the Phoenix bloodline."

Li Hongzhao laughed and said, "The power of the Phoenix bloodline far exceeds my imagination."

She became the Great Mongol Emperor despite being a woman, all because of her phoenix bloodline.

Her phoenix bloodline allowed her to experience a surge in cultivation after entering the Jade Scenery Imperial City and encountering Chu Zhiyuan.

Thus, they would be able to inherit the Emperor's Sword.

However, the Phoenix bloodline is even more important in Biyuan Heaven, and cultivation based on the bloodline is surprisingly rapid.

This is a legacy from our ancient ancestors, passed down to this day, and we can still enjoy it.

If she weren't of the Phoenix bloodline, it would take decades to reach the Ninth Revolution, and she didn't think she had Chu Zhiyuan's comprehension and talent.

Now, thanks to his phoenix bloodline, he is able to keep pace with Chu Zhiyuan.

The mysteries of the Phoenix bloodline are boundless; it not only grants cultivation levels but also allows one to learn unique secret techniques.

Even if one cannot be invincible, one can still live a carefree life.

"The Phoenix bloodline is indeed powerful."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

The phoenix bloodline is naturally extremely strong, and the more concentrated the spiritual energy, the stronger the bloodline.

Look at Li Miaotan, she can even crush other cultivators of the world with the power of her bloodline.

The two walked briskly forward while talking.

Chu Zhiyuan discovered that her lightness skill had become extremely powerful, as if she were being propelled by an invisible force, without her having to exert herself to circulate her true energy.

This is clearly a secret technique derived from bloodline, and should be the power of bloodline.

"What kind of light-foot technique is this?" Chu Zhiyuan asked curiously.

"How about the Phoenix Flight Technique?" she asked with a smile.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Very impressive lightness skill."

“This has surpassed even the basics of lightness skill.” She smiled proudly, “When you reach a high level, you can ignore space and arrive directly. Master could do this when he went to the Heavenly Sword Sect, and it’s the same when he brought me back.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and put his arm around her shoulder. The next moment, the scenery before their eyes changed abruptly.

The pavilions and courtyards are built against the mountain and stretch all the way up the mountain.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Is that so?"

The most obvious change in the second level of the Earth Origin Technique is the ability to carry people across the void.

This is a qualitative change.

“You…?” Li Hongzhao’s phoenix eyes widened in disbelief.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed, "Is that so?" "You actually managed to do that!" Li Hongzhao looked at his smug smile and snorted, "I admire you."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Then practice hard and try to reach that level as soon as possible."

Li Hongzhao rolled her eyes at him: "Who knows when you'll reach that level!"

Chu Zhiyuan laughed and said, "With your talent, there's absolutely no problem."

Li Hongzhao snorted and said irritably, "Don't talk to me about qualifications."

She could maintain her pride and protect her talents even in front of others and her master.

There was no need to bring up this humiliating thing in front of Chu Zhiyuan.

"Let's go." She led Chu Zhiyuan to a pavilion.

This pavilion, located at the highest point of the mountain, is built of jade and is covered with the marks of time, yet its warm luster remains undiminished.

The entire pavilion was bathed in a warm glow, as if it were situated in autumn water.

Chu Zhiyuan saw that in the very center of the top floor of the pavilion, a young woman in white was sitting cross-legged on a red jade bed.

Her eyes were slightly closed, her hands, which looked like white jade, were forming a mudra, and she remained motionless like a statue.

Her features were exquisitely beautiful, with a bright red birthmark in the center of her dark eyebrows.

The birthmark, however, resembles a tiny phoenix, seemingly coming to life and dancing.

A phoenix appeared behind her, dancing gently in sync with the small phoenix on her brow.

The phoenix in the void was bathed in raging flames, with clusters of flames dancing around it, as if thousands of red birds were worshipping it.

They were about to touch the coffered ceiling of the pavilion, but they just didn't.

The void where the phoenix resided was distorted, as if leading to another void.

The young woman, who was sitting cross-legged on the red jade bed, suddenly opened her eyes.

Li Hongzhao immediately sensed something and hurriedly said, "Master, Chu Zhiyuan is here."

"Come in," a slightly hoarse voice said.

Li Hongzhao pushed open the door and entered the building, leading Chu Zhiyuan up to the third floor, where they stood before the woman in white.

The woman in white tilted her body and fell to the side, leaning against a large pillow, lazily looking at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, Senior."

The Song Dynasty figure before him looked down at him like a real phoenix.

Its danger far surpasses that of the giant monster.

Clearly, this senior Song's bloodline power was activated to an extremely high degree, and its power was astonishing.

My intuition kept warning me to be careful, not to be careless, or my life would be in danger.

"A prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the future sect leader." Song Chaoge chuckled lightly, "Nice to meet you."

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at Li Hongzhao.

Li Hongzhao stuck out her tongue: "There's no need to hide it from Master, we're family."

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his hands in a gesture of apology to Song Chaoge, saying, "Senior, you flatter me."

“Hong Zhao is right. We are family. There’s no need to be formal. Let’s not say hypocritical and polite things like outsiders.”

"Yes."

“With your cultivation level…” Song Chaoge shook his head slightly: “No wonder Hong Zhao is convinced.”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "This disciple did indeed have some fortuitous encounters, which is why I have such cultivation."

“Good luck, high comprehension, and a firm will,” Song Chaoge nodded. “The Heavenly Sword Sect is indeed blessed with extraordinary fortune… Are you really prepared to become the sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect?”

"This is just a small pursuit of mine, and I may not actually be able to achieve it," Chu Zhiyuan said.

“Being the sect leader isn’t easy,” Song Chaoge said. “It’s not as glamorous as you imagine.”

Chu Zhiyuan immediately became solemn.

Song Chaoge said, "Tianjian Peak is no ordinary mountain."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and said, "As the sect leader, shouldn't you be able to leave the peak?"

“Not bad.” Song Chaoge nodded.

Chu Zhiyuan fell silent.

He initially believed that Lu Wanshan never left the mountain in order to guard Tianjian Peak and prevent demons from attacking.

After going to Zhenxie Abyss, I began to suspect that something was being suppressed there.

It was suppressed with the Heavenly Sword.

Now, after hearing Song Chaoge's words, he knew that his guess was correct; the sect leader did indeed need to suppress something.

This means that the sect leader cannot leave the mountain, which is quite a difficult task.

No matter how much power you have, wouldn't it be too frustrating if you couldn't go down the mountain to see the world?

Song Chaoge narrowed her eyes and scrutinized Chu Zhiyuan, observing the changes in his expression.

Chu Zhiyuan sighed and slowly nodded: "The sect leader bears a heavy responsibility, which is indeed not easy."

Song Chaoge asked, "Do you still want to be the sect leader?"
