Heaven-defying Phoenix

The moon came out to scare the birds, and it was spring in the middle of the stream.    

    

The ancient cave dwelling was built next to a mountain and a river. Although there was nothing to carve on, it could still calm the waves in one's heart, allowing one to calm their heart and mind.    

    

"You're back?"    

    

Seeing Jiu Muli, Luo Hongchen's eyes flashed a strange look before returning to normal.    

    

Today, he was dressed in white to her. It was simple and unadorned, yet it gave off an incomparably breathtaking feeling.    

    

Water produced hibiscus, natural to go carving!    

    

Such a sentence suddenly flashed across Jiu Muli's mind. He smiled lightly and nodded, then said: "En, how has senior been these past few days?"    

    

"Right."    

    

Luo Hongchen nodded and said: "Void Battlefield, you've heard of it too. Do you want to go?"    

    

"Ugh …"    

    

Jiu Muli was startled, she had thought of countless of possibilities, but did not expect Luo Hongchen to raise this matter, and from the looks of it, she seemed to have planned this long ago, causing her to not know how to reply. After hesitating for a moment, she said: "Senior, did you get them to reveal the news regarding Gate of Heavenly Secrets?"    

    

At this moment, when she thought about Gate of Heavenly Secrets's unexpected actions, she immediately became suspicious.    

    

"The rumors about the outer sect disciples are spreading like wildfire. I'm sure you've heard about it as well. It's time for you to give it a shot."    

    

As Luo Hongchen spoke, he glanced at Jiu Muli and said: "I had originally planned to send you over this time, but I did not arrange for Gate of Heavenly Secrets to do so, but rather, they calculated the fruits of heaven's will. This Gate of Heavenly Secrets, is not simple at all."    

    

Jiu Muli deeply thought that, disregarding Yu Bujin's mysterious disciple, he was still alive and kicking all day. Just based on the rumors in the Gate of Heavenly Secrets, coupled with the fact that he had never taken the initiative to provoke the Blood Fiend Mansion, he knew that the sect was not ordinary.    

    

"Senior intends to send me there. Is my cultivation level suitable for you?" Jiu Muli was a little hesitant.    

    

After all, it was rumored that all of the Void Battlefield s were heaven's pride experts and the lowest was at the Venerability Realm. Although her current strength wasn't weak, she still didn't seem to be qualified.    

    

"Your strength is indeed a bit lacking. However, as long as you don't cause trouble, it's most likely fine. What? Are you afraid?" Luo Hongchen raised his brows, a pair of eyes that were like water revealed a faintly discernible smile.    

    

Something was not right!    

    

Sister Qian is either sick or plotting something!    

    

Jiu Muli had obviously noticed the abnormality in Luo Hongchen's condition, because even though the other party was easy to talk to in the past, they would usually act high and mighty, making it difficult for them to get close to.    

    

Therefore, she dryly laughed and said, "It's not that I'm afraid, but that my own family members are aware of my own affairs and do not dare to act presumptuously due to my lack of strength."    

    

People knew their own worth!    

    

This was the biggest lesson she had learnt in the past four years. Countless fellow disciples had lost their lives because of this. Now, even though she wasn't afraid of danger, she didn't want to die either!    

    

Now, she finally survived with great difficulty. She only wanted to stay on the road of cultivation and fight steadily for a long time; she was still young, and had only trained for six or seven years, to the point where she had enough time. There was still Qin Zheng to wait for him to revive, so she had to live.    

    

"Is that so?"    

    

Luo Hongchen's clear eyes did not seem to contain any impurities, as she stared at Jiu Muli's body, making her feel strangely guilty.    

    

Jiu Muli was silent, she did not reply, she still had resources, even if she wanted to go, she planned to wait until she truly becomes a Venerability.    

    

"You will never be able to complete the profound vein here. Are you willing to break through just like that?" Seeing that, Luo Hongchen spoke faintly.    

    

"What!"    

    

Jiu Muli was shocked and could not believe it: "Senior, could it be that there is a special requirement for the profound vein to reach great perfection?"    

    

"This world is not complete, the profound vein is complete, it needs to be tempered with the laws of the world, and it needs to be baptized by the lightning tribulation!" Luo Hongchen explained.    

    

~ Isn't there the lightning tribulation?    

    

Jiu Muli was surprised. She remembered that the Little Lotus had endured the lightning tribulation twice.    

    

"It's not four or nine heavenly tribulations, but a complete Great Heavenly Tribulation!"    

    

As if he had guessed what Jiu Muli was thinking, Luo Hongchen explained and then told Jiu Muli, whether it was borrowing Kaixuan Pill s or borrowing other spirit herbs, they could only reach a hundred and forty-three in the end. As for the last profound vein, it needed to be baptized with the lightning tribulation of the Ninth Heaven and be reborn from its destruction.    

    

"You are very lucky. Back then, you were able to bring the dead back to life and completely transformed. Otherwise, this path would have been even more difficult."    

    

It was not that they could not find the way, nor was it that they did not know what to do. It was just that the lightning tribulation was too tyrannical, and it required one to be able to recover from its destruction to reach an unprecedented level.    

    

Now, Jiu Muli had it, because in the past, she was born from death.    

    

"So that's how it is."    

    

Jiu Muli suddenly realised that it was no wonder he said that he had to return to the Blue Cloud Hall to borrow the Three Immortal Heavens's perfect The Laws of Heaven and Earth.    

    

Tomorrow, I will send you there. You are only borrowing the way to go to Three Immortal Heavens, so you don't need to think too much about it. "    

    

In the end, Luo Hongchen set the date.    

    

"Can it be next month?"    

    

Jiu Muli was dumbstruck. This was simply too fast, and if she went there, she would immediately head to Three Immortal Heavens, not knowing how long it would take her to return, and wanted to go visit some of her old acquaintances. Furthermore, she didn't know where Xiao Buyi had placed them, so she wanted to find them and see if they were still well.    

    

"No, the passage between Void Battlefield s only opens once every ten years."    

    

Luo Hongchen frowned, but seeing that Jiu Muli was truly anxious, he thought for a bit before saying: "How about this, three days. You only have three days, do whatever you want, or else it'll be too late."    

    

"Thank you, senior."    

    

Jiu Muli was overjoyed. Although three days was a little short, it was better than nothing.    

    

So she left right away, the first stop, Next three days.    

    

This time, when she returned to the Next three days, she directly barged into the Imperial Palace to meet the Qin Emperor, then went to the Jiuhua Hall.    

    

After a month had passed, Mu Dan's cultivation had already reached the peak of Blood Coagulation Stage, and when he saw Jiu Muli, he was so overjoyed that he cried.    

    

Looking at her disciple who she had entrusted with the task before, Jiu Muli felt a little guilty. After all, he had taught her way too little, but she was similarly not able to control herself.    

    

In the end, after a day of delays in the Next three days, after a short distance with Bai Qing, Director Chen, and the others, the imperial palace and the great formation of the Jiuhua Hall were once again set up, leaving behind a few pill s, they reluctantly left.    

    

After leaving the palace, she went to see Tianting Meng once more.    

    

It had only been a few years and Tianting Meng was already the patriarch of the Tianting Family. With his bloodline's innate talent, he already had the Tianting Family firmly in his grasp and his cultivation had already reached the peak of Star Profound Stage.    

    

However, when Jiu Muli asked her if she was willing to go to Three Immortal Heavens, she said that she was not in a hurry.    

    

After reminiscing about old times, Jiu Muli didn't disturb anyone and quietly walked over and left.    

    

Compared to Next three days, there were even less events in Three Mortal Heavens, because majority of the people that were familiar with him were no longer there. In the end, Jiu Muli only saw the Du siblings from Songming City.    

    

After this trip, she searched for clues regarding the rest of the people in Qing Yun Sect, but after spending a day, she still could not find any clues, so she had no choice but to give up and head to North Region.    

    

In the end, they arrived at the largest city in North Region, Chang'an!    

    

That's right, it was Chang'an. It meant a long term peace.    

    

This was the first time Jiu Muli heard the name of this city, and her jaw dropped in shock, because this name was too familiar, and she thought that she had gone through the wrong time and place, but reality showed that she was overthinking it. This city had already existed for ten thousand years, and had existed for far longer than the city in her previous life.    

    

When she arrived at Chang An City, she did not go elsewhere. Instead, she went straight to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion and called for ancestor You Quan to meet her at the agreed meeting place.    

    

The business with the Myriad Treasures Pavilion in Chang An City was still pretty good. When they found out that Jiu Muli had arrived, they welcomed him cordially.    

    

In the end, she left in disappointment. This was because Liu Li and Steward Shi made a great contribution because of the trade with the Kaixuan Pill, and was transferred back to the Three Immortal Heavens.    

    

Even so, Jiu Muli still bought two Grade Six Mysterious Opening Pill s with the attention of the manager. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't even auction them, but sold them privately.    

    

Once she was done, she rushed to the agreed location with Patriarch You Quan without stopping, took out a Grade Seven Mysterious Opening Pill and gave it to Patriarch You Quan, told him to take care of him if he saw any disciples of the Qing Yun Sect and her disciple Mu Dan.    

    

Furthermore, she specially reminded him that if there were any difficulties, he could go to the Southern region to find Luo Hongchen!    

    

Borrowing Luo Hongchen's fame, she wanted him to be obedient. She believed that even if Patriarch You Quan knew where Luo Hongchen was, he wouldn't dare to disturb her.    

    

Fortunately, this ancestor You Quan, who had sold out the Blood Fiend Mansion without any pressure, immediately agreed the moment he saw the Grade Seven Mysterious Opening Pill.    

    

Regarding this, Jiu Muli did not explain any further.    

    

"Looks like you're planning on going to a faraway place?"    

    

Before leaving, You Quan couldn't help but ask.    

    

"Yes, he might be back in three to five years!" Jiu Muli spoke nonsense.    

    

Seeing that he could not get anything else out of him, You Quan did not say anything.    

    

After finishing, Jiu Muli immediately planned to return, but just at this time, Blacky suddenly spoke mysteriously: "Master, do you really not plan to go to Gate of Heavenly Secrets?"    

    

This bastard still hasn't given up!    

    

Jiu Muli was speechless. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said: "Alright, let's go!"    

    

The entrance to the Gate of Heavenly Secrets was not hidden, it was located to the east of the North Region.    

    

When Jiu Muli revealed his identity to pay a visit, he was not obstructed in the slightest and was received attentively by the Gate of Heavenly Secrets's Sect Leader.    

    

The Sect Leader of the Gate of Heavenly Secrets was an old man who seemed to be over the age of ten. He didn't look the least bit imposing, but his eyes were extremely bright, as if he could easily see through everyone's intentions.    

    

"I knew you would come!" When the Gate of Heavenly Secrets's Sect Leader saw Jiu Muli, he looked at him like he was looking at a treasure. He smiled and said, "Little Friend is not simple.    

    

Jiu Muli didn't really feel anything from hearing such flattery, so he asked in curiosity, "Senior, the news from yesterday was intentionally leaked by you, right? I wonder how you are going to teach me this?"    

    

At this time, as long as one was not stupid, one would know that the Gate of Heavenly Secrets was intentionally guiding Jiu Muli, and did not want her to waste time in the Three Mortal Heavens.    

    

"I just had a good relationship with him."    

    

The Sect Leader of the Gate of Heavenly Secrets laughed lightly and continued, "In recent years, when I checked the secrets of the Heavenly Mystery, I discovered that there was chaos in the area. There was a huge crisis looming over the entire Twelve Layered Heavens and it was a true calamity.
