Chapter 65: The Fledgling Phoenix's Clarion Call
Chapter 65: The Fledgling Phoenix's Clarion Call
Musan Martial Academy.
"Senior Han Yang, I've seen the person from Yangyan Martial Arts Academy," Lin Donghe said in a deep voice.
In front of him, a young man with long hair stood shirtless, his muscles well-defined and his physique symmetrical. A flowing radiance covered his body, and just by looking at him, one could sense the power within.
Upon hearing Lin Donghe's voice, the young man finally withdrew from his stance, and his entire body's tendons and bones crackled with a crisp sound.
Hearing this, Lin Donghe felt a surge of envy.
When he broke his limit, he was restricted by his talent and resources, managing to break only one limit and gaining the 'Invulnerable Skin' benefit. After that, he couldn't make any further progress.
But Senior Han Yang has already broken through three limits and possesses the 'Invulnerable Skin', 'Coiled Rib Muscles', and the 'Bone Like Bell' Heavenly Gate blessing. His overall score has reached 98!
Currently, he has gathered all the resources of the martial arts academy and is making the most of the remaining time to attempt breaking the fourth limit. He is considered the most talented young martial artist of this generation in Taian City.
Even Master Wan Si said that if he were born in the Central Region, he might have the potential to break the five limits.
Once Master Wan Si establishes his Dao Pavilion, Senior Han Yang will undoubtedly be the most promising candidate among them to join the Dao Pavilion.
Pei Hanyang exhaled, concluding his blood qi refinement, and opened his eyes. He spoke in a gentle tone, "Senior, what's the result?"
"He didn't deny saving Lou Qinglan," Lin Donghe stated directly, "and I tried to win him over, but he showed no interest at all!"
Pei Hanyang pondered for a moment and said, "Since he's Lou Qinglan's savior, he must be able to connect with Lou Qinglan. Maybe Lou Qinglan will even seek him out to express gratitude. This is our chance."
"The corporation's people will arrive in a couple of days. We need to confirm Lou Qinglan's location as soon as possible. Senior, keep in touch with him and try to win him over. You can offer him verbal promises first, and if necessary, give him some initial benefits."
Instinctively, Lin Donghe didn't want to meet Ji Jingqiu again.
He hurriedly said, "Senior Han Yang, wasn't it mentioned that in a few days, Lou Qinglan would attend an elite banquet? Why don't we take action then?"
Pei Hanyang's voice became solemn, "Senior, we need to demonstrate our value to the corporation as much as possible, so we can negotiate for more leverage."
Lin Donghe hesitated and nodded, "What about Master's opinion?"
Pei Hanyang calmly replied, "Master's intention is also clear. After the incident at the Martial Assembly, the City Hall suspects that we are the insider. So, we have no other choice."
Lin Donghe nodded solemnly, "Understood. I'll continue to contact and persuade Ji Jingqiu."
Pei Hanyang spoke softly, "If it's really not possible, Senior, don't force it. At worst, we can find an opportunity to trick him out. Master said that the old master of Yangyan Martial Arts Academy, Yang Yan, is severely injured and has a serious depletion of blood qi. As long as we resolve this within a short time, we will have already left Dong Sanhuang Planet."
...
Taian City Airport.
"Why is the security in Taian City so strict?"
An old man and a young man, who had just managed to escape from the security checkpoint, walked side by side in the airport. The old man frowned and said, "It's not just the security that's strict; the public security is also good."
The young man, however, remained optimistic, "Yes, and look at this post, I finally understand why you said the Federation is full of geniuses."
Pointing at the screen, the young man exclaimed, "There's even a location tag for Dong Sanhuang Planet on this post. This planet is also a place where dragons and tigers hide!"
Reading the post about someone breaking through the mystery of life and death in a day and breaking five limits in one breath, the old man couldn't help but feel a twitch on his face. He forced himself to read to the end and saw a comment with a location tag for Dong Sanhuang Planet:
[Ashamed, I just opened the Heavenly Gate this afternoon, and it will probably take until tomorrow morning to break through the first Heavenly Gate.]
The old man couldn't help but speak with a heavy heart, "They're just boasting."
"San Xi, you should learn to discern right from wrong. Do you really believe this obvious lie?"
Shi San Xi paused and scratched his head, "Master, are you saying that these are all just netizens boasting?"
The old man pondered for a moment, "All the ones before are too far-fetched, like breaking through the Five Limits in one breath. But the last one is still possible."
"The one about breaking through the limit the next day?"
"Yes, there are historical records of this," the old man added, "Most of them were geniuses in heart cultivation, especially in body forging and igniting the heart flame. After the meridians are opened, the earlier the Gate of Celestial Human is opened, the easier it is to break through the limits."
"So, breaking through the limit the next day is real?"
"It’s hard to say. I don't think this planet has such a genius," Luo Tian You shook his head. "Let's go quickly. If we're any later, and your Uncle Yang is gone, you'll only be able to offer incense in front of his tombstone."
Shi Sanxi was speechless.
If not for the detour the Master insisted on taking to the Northern District, they would have arrived much earlier.
And the reason his Master took the detour to the Northern District was to help Uncle Yang buy the latest life potential supplement from Kangping Pharmaceuticals, hoping to treat him as if he were still alive.
"Remember, when we meet, call him Uncle, not Senior Uncle," Luo Tian You suddenly turned back and sternly instructed.
"Okay, okay, okay," Shi Sanxi numbly nodded. He had heard this many times on the way here and could only marvel at how the two old men truly couldn't stand to lose to each other.
On the way out of the airport, Shi Sanxi's gaze suddenly locked onto a short-haired woman. She exuded a mysterious aura similar to his own.
"Master," he softly called out.
"Yes, I saw her," Luo Tian You's face was calm, but his eyes showed a ripple of emotion. "Not only has she opened the Gate of Celestial Human, but with an aura of this level, she's at least at the Fourth Limit. It seems this planet does have geniuses... Let's go."
The two men stepped out of the airport and hailed an autonomous taxi, heading for the Yangyan Martial Arts Academy.
Shi Sanxi suddenly said, "Master, let's stay on this planet for a while. I'm about to break through the Third Limit, and you can catch up with Uncle Yang."
Luo Tian You's face brightened, "You're about to break through again?"
"Yep," Shi Sanxi's eyes were resolute. To let his stubborn Master and his few friends catch up, he would have to break his limit even if he wasn't ready to!
"Good, good, good! You don't disappoint me, my disciple!"
Luo Tian You slapped his thigh, feeling very pleased. He began to rethink his plans.
"I won't bring it up proactively later. I'll wait until you break through in front of them. I don't think Old Man Yang can hold back his curiosity!"
"At that time, I'll casually mention it. I'm sure Old Man Yang will be envious!"
Shi Sanxi: "...As long as you're happy."
Looking at his disciple, Luo Tian You felt very satisfied.
His disciple was modest and polite, and extremely lucky.
Occasionally, he was a bit lazy, his temperament was gentle and non-competitive, which didn't quite match the inheritance of the saber technique he held. When he breaks through the Fifth Limit in the future, he would have to worry about his body technique cultivation.
Of course, it was a happy worry.
As the gilded letters of the Yangyan Martial Arts Academy came into view, Luo Tian You called out to his prized disciple, puffed out his chest, and strode in, not forgetting to remind him:
"Take the Life X Elixir with you. In a couple of days, find an opportunity to secretly give it to Yang Yao. Don't give it to him directly..."
Shi Sanxi nodded, then suddenly stopped.
Luo Tian You also sensed something and looked forward.
It was a saber cry.
Clear and resonant like the sound of metal and stone, it echoed far and wide, as if boundless, ascending to the infinite heights.
Like the clear cry of a fledgling phoenix, it resounded throughout the world.
Luo Tian You's steps paused, then quickened.
His gaze swept past Yang Yan, who seemed to sense something and turned to look, and landed on the deeply seated figure of Ji Jingqiu. A sharp and fiery aura radiated from every pore, as if bursting forth, slicing through the Third Limit in one move.
Under this aura, the vast and spacious training ground seemed abnormally narrow and small, as if it couldn't contain this fierce and sharp intent.
This child is fit to learn the saber from me!
