Translator: 549690339
Chen Changqing, He Le, Ren Feixue, and two others arrived at Hundred Swords Plaza, observing the simultaneous release of the sword qi from the Hundred
Swords, equally shocked and excited.
Several hundred years had passed.
After hundreds of years, someone had finally comprehended the Hundred Swords!
Their long wait had not been in vain.
“Hundreds of years have passed, and at last our Sword Hall has a new Hall Master!” He Le suddenly felt tears welling up in his eyes.
“Yes, it’s been hundreds of years,” Chen Changqing remarked with emotion.
Meanwhile, inside the City Lord’s Mansion, Peng Zhigang and the masters of the mansion also looked up at the sword qi from the Hundred Swords over the Divine Sword Academy, equally astonished.
The sword qi from the Hundred Swords persisted for a long time before it gradually dissipated.
Once the sword qi from the Hundred Swords had vanished, Chen Changqing took a deep breath and said to He Le and the others, “Let us go and pay our respects to the Hall Master.”
Pay respects to the Hall Master!
At this moment, Yang Xiaotian was the Hall Master of the Sword Hall at the Divine Sword Academy.
Under the leadership of Chen Changqing, the five of them went before Yang
Xiaotian. Then they all bowed deeply, “Chen Changqing, He Le, Ren Feixue, MO Gao, Zhou Zhe, have come to see the Hall Master!”
All five spoke in unison.
Their voices were not loud, but they caused a great stir among the teachers and students of the Divine Sword Academy.
Only then did the teachers and students of the Divine Sword Academy realize that Yang Xiaotian was no longer the freshman they recognized from the first year.
He was their Hall Master of the Sword Hall at the Divine Sword Academy!
“We have come to see the Hall Master.” Lin Yong and Chen Yuan also came to their senses and came over to pay their respects.
“We have come to see the Hall Master!”
All the teachers and students of the academy bowed deeply.
Yang Xiaotian surveyed the crowd, nodded his head, and then said to Chen
Changqing and the others, “Elder Chen, let’s go to Sword Hall.”
Using the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire for alchemy was truly draining on his true qi, leaving him extremely fatigued each time.
If he could subdue the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, he wouldn’t have to tire himself out like that when using it for alchemy.
Furthermore, the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame could also be used to refine top-quality elixirs.
Chen Changqing and the others knew that Yang Xiaotian was fixating on the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame. They exchanged glances, somewhat hesitant, but ultimately they nodded their heads.
So, the five of them once again led Yang Xiaotian back to the Sword Hall.
Upon entering the Sword Hall, they saw that the interior resembled a long palace, with everything one could need.
There were not only training rooms but also a martial practice field, a Pill Refining Chamber, and a Sword Pavilion.
Inside the Sword Pavilion were various items related to swords.
There were swordsmanship manuals, swords, and a Sword Wall.
Passing through the Sword Pavilion led to the deepest part of the Sword Hall.
Before this innermost part of the Sword Hall was a plaza.
In the air above the plaza floated nine golden streamers of phoenixes enwrapped in flames.
This was the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, ranked ninth on the Abnormal Fire List.
Yang Xiaotian followed Chen Changqing and the others to the front of the plaza and looked up at the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame floating above the plaza, his eyes lighting up.
The Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, with such a design, was quite impressive.
“Hall Master, this Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame is extraordinarily fierce and powerful. Even Martial Emperor experts find it difficult to approach. Maybe you should consider subduing it later?” Chen Changqing still couldn’t help but say.
He was worried for Yang Xiaotian.
It had not been easy for their Sword Hall to gain a new Hall Master, and if something were to happen to him because of the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, they would never forgive themselves.
“No need,” Yang Xiaotian knew what Chen Changqing and the others were worried about, smiled, and said, “Rest assured, the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame can’t harm me.” Then he added, “You all go out first.”
“This…” Chen Changqing and the other four hesitated.
They were still worried.
“You all go out first. If the situation turns bad, I’ll leave,” Yang Xiaotian told the five of them.
Only then did the five agree and turn to leave.
Yang Xiaotian looked at the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame in the sky above the plaza, took a step, and walked into the square.
When the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame felt Yang Xiaotian entering the square, it suddenly let out a phoenix cry. With a spread of its nine golden wings, it swooped toward Yang Xiaotian.
As the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame swooped in, phoenix flames rolled in like a raging sea of fire, sweeping across the entire plaza.
The astounding heat wave looked set to engulf Yang Xiaotian when suddenly, a light flew out, enveloping his entire body. The flames from the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame that bombarded him were all blocked by the light.
The light was emitted by the Medicine Cauldron.
Yang Xiaotian said to the Medicine Cauldron with a smile, “At critical moments, it’s still Master Ding who’s powerful.”
The Medicine Cauldron responded, “This old man has a tough life. Since the beginning of the heavens, I’ve always been working for others.”
Since the beginning of the heavens?
Yang Xiaotian choked up.
“Activate the Primordial Dragon Art and entrap the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame,” the Medicine Cauldron instructed.
Yang Xiaotian came back to his senses, stretched out his hands, and fourteen strands of True Dragon Qi flew out, entwining the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame.
Bound by Yang Xiaotian’s True Dragon Qi, the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame struggled frantically.
However, Yang Xiaotian had previously trapped the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire, and it could not escape, let alone the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame.
More than an hour later, the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame finally settled down.
Yang Xiaotian began to use the Controlling Fire Technique, casting one Fire Rune after another, merging them into the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame.
Another hour passed, and Chen Changqing, He Le, Ren Feixue, and the other two waited outside, growing increasingly worried as Yang Xiaotian did not come out for a long time.
“There’s been no movement for so long. Should we go in and check?” He Le said with concern.
“But the Hall Master told us to wait outside,” Ren Feixue hesitated.
“What time is it now? If anything happens to the Hall Master, how are we going to explain to our ancestors!” He Le exclaimed anxiously.
“Let’s go in and have a look,” Chen Changqing said after a moment’s thought.
Just as Chen Changqing and the others were about to go in, they saw Yang Xiaotian coming out from inside.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian safe and sound, the five of them relaxed.
“It’s good that the Hall Master is fine. We were about to go in, ” Chen Changqing said with a smile. “There’s no need to be discouraged, Hall Master. With your talent, you should be able to subdue the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame in ten years.”
“That’s right. The Hall Master will definitely be able to subdue the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame in the future,” He Le also said.
Yang Xiaotian smiled and then said, “I’m going to enter the Inner Hall to take a look. You all go about your business; no need to wait for me.”
The Sword Hall was divided into the outer hall and the inner hall, with only Yang Xiaotian allowed into the inner hall where the Sword Hall’s inheritance was located.
Chen Changqing and the others agreed.
Yang Xiaotian turned and walked toward the Inner Hall.
After Yang Xiaotian had left, Chen Changqing and the others casually strolled over to the plaza where the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame was trapped, but upon arrival, the five of them stood there, dumbfounded, staring at the empty square.
“Where did the Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame go?” He Le hadn’t quite grasped the situation and asked aloud.
As he spoke, however, he saw that Chen Changqing and the others were unusually silent.
Realizing something, He Le stuttered, “Could it be that the Hall Master…?!”
“The Hall Master has succeeded!” Chen Changqing finally uttered after a long pause.
The Nine Phoenixes Golden Flame, ninth on the Abnormal Fire List, impossible for even those who surpassed the Martial Emperor to subdue, was successfully subdued by their Hall Master!
