Chapter 4: The Blade of the Celestial Phoenix

The Azure Mountain Range occupies almost all the land on the east-northern, eastern, and southern-eastern-eastern borders of the Meteorite Continent, stretching for tens of thousands of kilometers on top of each other, and at the same time connecting the borders of the three empires of Odin, Holy Dragon, and Jiufeng.

The cold desert city of Odin, a line of gray barren forests, is full of thorny shrubs and swamp miasma. And beyond the wind and fog rift valley and the field of mourning to the southeast, there are countless heavy mountains and mountains in the Blue Mountains. Further south, beyond the Baiyun Mountains and Qingxia Rainforest, is the Cangzhisen on the first line of the contract canyon and the border town of the Holy Dragon Empire, Cangcheng, the vast Cangzhisen, full of dense forests and deep valleys, and has spread to the Xingyun Mountain area on the border of the Jiufeng Empire in the southeast of the continent and the Red Moon Strait.

As for the Nebula Mountain Area, as the region with the largest concentration of high-level demonic beasts on the continent, and at the same time, it has the Chiyue Strait, which is the only one of the three empires that directly leads to the abyss region, and a large number of mercenaries and academy trainees pour into it every year......

The Nine Phoenix Empire's Heavenly Phoenix Blade, one of the five major academies in the mainland.

As the cradle of the empire's powerhouses, the enrollment conditions for the students of the Heavenly Phoenix Blade are extremely high, and the first-year students only accept teenagers with third-order cultivation and above between the ages of twelve and fifteen.

The Blade of the Celestial Phoenix is located in the Moonyin Volcanic Mountains, on which the capital of the Empire depends.

It is 800 kilometers away from the Imperial Red City, and the red vegetation is everywhere, and the entire Fuhuang Mountain area is full of the academy buildings of the Heavenly Phoenix Blade, and the most prominent is the seventy-two towers. Then there is the large stage of the eight corners of the academy.

In addition to the towers, the main building of the academy has one hundred and eight large buildings, including an arena for warriors, an experimental hall for mages, an enchantment hall for alchemists, a forging hall for blacksmiths, and a large library with a variety of books. There are also countless small buildings used for trading, communication, entertainment, healing, accommodation, etc.

The history of the Heavenly Phoenix Blade Academy can be traced back to nearly 20,000 years ago, when the Nine Phoenix Empire had not yet been established. Its long history not only gives it a large number of magnificent buildings, but also gives it an incomparably rich heritage.

In the Fuhuang Mountains, the average level of the infested demonic beasts is the third order, and it is fifteen kilometers away from the imperial capital. Red cherry blossoms, blood locusts, foggy maples, moon orchids, floating laurels, red spotted grass and other vegetation under the influence of the fire elements grow luxuriantly here, and the mountains that never have other colors throughout the year, only in the light red, bright red, dark red and other reds have their own special charm.

The main gate of the Heavenly Phoenix Blade, bypassing the ancient fog maple tree as high as 100 zhang, a thousand meters ahead, is one of the eight large martial arts platforms of the academy, the maple square, into an octagonal shape, the longest diameter of 600 meters, in which the back reflects the deep corner of the academy, there stands a humanoid statue - Alberton, the flame scepter.

On the eight platforms and seventy-two towers of the Blade of the Celestial Phoenix, there are a total of seventy-three legendary heroes from the Blade of the Phoenix, the most famous of which is undoubtedly the Lady Alberton, the Scepter of Flame, who was transformed into a heroic spirit in the war of a thousand years ago.

Looking at the statue of the hero thousands of years ago, Yun Lang waited quietly.

At this time, he had ear-length purple broken hair, his original delicate appearance was a little more angular, and there was less childlike innocence between his eyebrows, and more of a young man's handsomeness. Wearing a fiery red standard power suit, he is two heads taller than four years ago, even in the genius of the Heavenly Phoenix Blade, he can show his extraordinary.

Yun Lang, who suddenly received a letter from his uncle, rushed here a few days ago to participate in the assessment of the new college.

Although I had heard of the Celestial Phoenix Blade for a long time, it was a different feeling when I actually came here. Everything here seems to have penetrated through the years, and the retro buildings have built a city from the ancient century. Everyone comes with a vision, there are no old-fashioned tutors and program tutorials here, and all teaching tasks are carried out by high-end powerhouses of major mercenary groups, and foreign famous masters such as imperial generals and guild magicians take turns to be responsible.

The Celestial Phoenix Blade has only the Honorary Dean, and the actual person in charge of the affairs of the academy is a law enforcement group called Flame Fang, which is composed of students.

There are two ways to graduate: one is to apply for graduation if you have reached the sixth order and are under the age of twenty, and the other is to graduate if you have not reached the seventh order and have reached the age of twenty.

Either way, the students who graduate from the academy will receive a lot of attention from the major forces.

And what Yun Lang is waiting for are the three mentors who will be responsible for their 300 freshmen for a year. And the tutor has been in charge of things for a year, and this is the first time in the academy.

Yun Lang couldn't help but ponder the intention of this in his heart, but he didn't get anything. I just don't think about it, he is not a person who likes to use his head.

When he came back to his senses, he found that in front of the new students, there was already a very serious man.

The man was also dressed in a red power suit, with a flame flower made of golden silk threads, the style was obviously different from Yun Lang's uniform, and there was a circular emblem on his chest, and inside was a phoenix that recycled its wings and made a long groan. Yun Lang knew that this was the badge of the Holy Phoenix Mercenary Group.

The man's eyebrows are very thick, a pair of dark eyes are deep and focused, the bridge of his nose is extremely high, his lips are very tightly closed, the black hair like steel needles stands on end, and the lines like knives and axes are extremely hard, he looks not very old, but he has a calmness and seriousness different from his age.

Sweeping over the new students with those extremely powerful eyes, Wen Renqing pondered for a while, and said:

"I am Wen Renqing, the captain of the seventh team of the Holy Phoenix Mercenary Regiment, a spirit envoy. At the same time, he is also the chief instructor of the year that you have been in the Heavenly Phoenix Blade. In addition, other instructors will be here in three months before the start of the official training. Before that, your task is to improve your cultivation level, and for three months, you will have to retreat in the cultivation tower, and prepare your own food and water. After three months, come and gather here. Also, put away your arrogance, there are no geniuses here, and those who can come here are all real warriors. ”

Wen Renqing glanced at the new students again, and then left on his own, leaving three hundred new students messy in the wind.

"This is leaving?" someone asked aloud.

"Well, let's go. Someone else answered.

"The character is really terrible. "Someone complained.

"Maybe the instructors here are like this! Time is power, go and cultivate. "There are also people who are comforted.

Yun Lang smiled, revealing a meaningful smile, which was very similar to his second brother's.

Seventy-two towers, originally built 10,000 years ago, when only eighteen were built, after the empire was first built 3,000 years ago, another thirty-six were built, and until now, a total of seventy-two have been built.

Each tower has eighteen floors, and it is a cultivation tower that provides a quiet room for cultivators. The first six floors have six ashrams on each floor, the middle six floors have four ashrams on each floor, and the upper six floors have only two ashrams on each floor.

The underground of Fuhuang Mountain is an extremely rich spiritual vein, and all seventy-two tall towers are built on the main vein and branch veins of this spiritual vein. It is an excellent place for both spirit masters and mages to cultivate.

And what Yunlang chose was a tall tower called Biyun. The tower was built next to a lake to the east of the college, close to the college's living quarters.

The tower is hexagonal, the white Beidi cold stone is used as the basic building material, and the cornices and the tiles on the top of the tower are blue, adding a touch of fresh color to the red Fuhuang Mountain.

Pushing open the lacquered blue wooden door, a cool smell came over the surface, and in the passage leading to the central hall of the tower, emerald green vines climbed the walls, and small yellow peach-colored four-petaled flowers bloomed all over the vines, emitting bursts of fragrance.

These vines that can grow without sunlight are called Seven Nights Magnolia Vine, which is a specialty of Xingyun Mountain, and when the tower was built three thousand years ago, the honorary dean at that time planted this kind of vine on the thirty-six towers that were newly built at that time because he liked this kind of small flower with a light fragrance very much, and at the same time, this vine also became the characteristic of the thirty-six towers at that time. And as the name suggests, each vine has a lifespan of only seven days, and the new flowers that bloom after seven days are their children.

The passage is about fifteen meters long, and then there is the eight-meter direct rotunda. Surrounded by countless green vines, dotted with small flowers and passageways, there are also exquisite stone carvings on the ceiling, two stairs leading to the higher towers, and six closed doors.

Yun Lang walked directly to a door and found that the wooden sign hanging on it was impressively written with the words "Do Not Disturb". Looking back at the other doors, it was the same, and he had no choice but to step up the stairs.

It wasn't until the seven-story tower was high that Yun Lang found a quiet room with no people.

The space in the ashram is extremely spacious, and there is only a set of stone tables and stone benches and a jade platform for cultivation in the fan-shaped room. However, one wall is covered with silver magic runes, if you look closely, you will feel dizzy, this is a special gold test circle for cultivators, attacks below the six rings or below the earth spirit master can not damage it, the entire wall is made of cold iron, and the runes are written by magicians, and the high-level demonic beast crystal nucleus must be replaced every ten years. Arguably, this is the most expensive facility in the entire tower.

Yun Lang sat on the jade platform, feeling the abundant spiritual power in the quiet room, and was quite surprised in his heart. Just by sitting here, he could feel the feeling of aura brushing against his skin, which he had never felt before.

The world in which Yun Lang lives is an ancient spirit realm called the Star Spirit Realm. Including the spirit master who was improved by the warrior from 10,000 years ago, and the protagonist of the magic civilization that has flourished since ancient times - the magician, the two professions are the mainstream of this world, and the aura is extremely important, and the mage senses the flow of elements through the aura, or converts it into magic. The spirit master, on the other hand, directly strengthens itself through aura, or transforms it into a spirit element.

At this time, in the dantian in Yun Lang's body, flames and thunder and lightning were combined, and a Yuan Dan the size of a pigeon's egg kept changing between red and purple. The boiling spiritual power continued to flow with the operation of Yunlang's exercises, and the magma-like spiritual yuan was wrapped in purple thunder light, washing every inch of Yunlang's meridians.

I don't know how long it took, Yun Lang's body rose with boiling flames, and thunder and light flowed endlessly around his **. Finally, a purple and red light rose from Yun Lang's chest, the color was very light at first, and when the aura turned into a funnel visible to the naked eye and poured into that light, the color became darker and darker, and finally calmed down.

When Yun Lang opened his eyes, he could see that there was a thunder light flickering in his pupils, and his body faintly revealed some unusual red, because the flow of flames burned his clothes, he had to take out another set for himself to put on.

Through a timekeeping hourglass unique to this world, Yun Lang knew that half a month had passed since he sat down, and what satisfied him was that this time he finally broke through the threshold of the third order and successfully advanced to the fourth order.

As a spirit master, only by advancing to the fourth order can he be regarded as a truly powerful warrior, the difference between the third order and the fourth order is very large, far from the gap between the first and third orders can be compared, which is also the main reason for dividing the first to third orders into low levels.

Of course, if you want to be truly powerful, the fourth order is just a starting point.
