Phoenix City.
In the city.
In front of the stone tablet.
Qin Tian and Xiao Wu arrived here early in the morning.
Around them, a crowd surged.
Countless strong individuals gathered here.
"Is the trial of Phoenix City really this extreme? Who came up with this idea? Could it be those from the Three Great Sects?"
Someone, after reading the words on the stone tablet, was left speechless.
Many others also wore blank expressions.
"Look, more than ten people have already succeeded."
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly.
Then, countless eyes turned toward the bottom of the stone tablet.
There, thirteen names were carved.
“Zhang Tianxu, Ling Tiannan, Han Jinglong. It's still those three?”
Qin Tian smiled slightly upon seeing these names.
He hadn't expected that after securing the top three positions in First City, they would once again dominate the rankings. It seemed that, barring any surprises, their standings would remain firmly in the top three at Vermilion Bird Mountain.
“Zhang Tianxu appears to be the chief disciple of Heavenly Sword Mountain. Last year, he was among the top five on the Tiger List. I didn't expect him to be here in the Vermilion Bird Region this year.”
Someone spoke up.
“Ling Tiannan is his junior brother; both are Heavenly Pride from Heavenly Sword Mountain. I can't believe they both made it here.”
“I've heard that there have been conflicts between them. No matter what trial or competition it is, they always strive to outdo each other. However, in their confrontations, Zhang Tianxu tends to lose more often than he wins.”
“Hmm.”
Many nodded in agreement.
“What about Han Jinglong?”
Curiosity arose among the crowd.
Qin Tian perked up his ears to listen.
It seemed that Han Jinglong had consistently held the third position.
Perhaps, compared to Zhang Tianxu and Ling Tiannan, he had some shortcomings. However, when compared to others, he indeed possessed formidable strength.
In the journey ahead, he would likely pose a significant threat to himself.
"Han Jinglong, you all don't know? Heh heh, the eldest disciple of Snow State Sword Manor. His strength is incredibly formidable."
Someone scoffed.
"Snow State Sword Manor? My goodness, it's actually Snow State Sword Manor?"
Upon hearing those four words, the crowd erupted in excitement.
Clearly, the reputation of Snow State Sword Manor was exceptionally powerful.
Hearing those four words, Qin Tian's eyes suddenly trembled.
For others, these four words might just be a legend. However, for Qin Tian, they held a deeply personal significance.
The Three Little Kings of Xuezhou Sword Manor had perished at his hands.
Thus, this esteemed elder brother of Snow State Sword Manor was truly deserving of his title.
Naturally, there would be a collision with oneself in the future.
However, it was unclear whether Zhang Wangchuan knew one of the Three Little Kings or this Han Jinglong.
"I only know that the Three Little Kings of Xuezhou Sword Manor are quite formidable. But I have no idea how powerful this chief disciple Han Jinglong truly is."
A question was raised.
"Heh, ignorance breeds fearlessness. Let me put it this way: the Three Little Kings of Xuezhou Sword Manor have been the most prominent figures in Snow State Sword Manor for many years. That is why they have earned such a title.
However, none of them even made it onto the Tiger List in the last Ancient Immortal Path. They stopped halfway through the Ancient Immortal Path. Meanwhile, this Han Jinglong ranked tenth on the Tiger List. He is exceptionally strong."
Someone slowly revealed the truth.
"Tenth on the Tiger List?"
Qin Tian was suddenly taken aback upon hearing this.
Combining it with what the elder from Lingxu Daozong had said earlier, Qin Tian understood.
It seemed that the person Zhang Wangchuan knew was indeed Han Jinglong, the chief disciple of Snow State Sword Manor.
Clenching his fists, a glimmer of killing intent flickered in his eyes.
Since one day in the future, when they meet on the journey, it would definitely be a fight to the death. Therefore, it is better to seize the time to cultivate and improve strength; that is the real matter.
Qin Tian nodded and looked at Xiao Wu beside him.
"You go participate in the trial! I'm going back to cultivate," Qin Tian said, turning to walk toward the room he was staying in.
"Senior?"
Xiao Wu did not expect that Qin Tian would directly give up.
However, it made sense.
The senior had an agreement with that fat man to meet outside the city in three days.
If he passed the trial, that agreement would naturally be impossible to fulfill.
With a nod, Xiao Wu turned her gaze to the stone tablet.
"Phoenix Cry Trial. Walking over the Flame Chains north of Phoenix City counts as passing. This isn't too extreme, right?"
Xiao Wu smiled lightly.
However, unexpectedly, a young boy beside him chuckled and looked at him.
"I advise you to take a look at that chain first before saying anything!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu felt it was reasonable.
He then stepped towards the north of the city.
When he saw the chain before him, he was taken aback.
What is going on?
Who came up with this?
Before Xiao Wu lay a chain that was nine zhang long.
If it were just that, it would be fine.
However, the chain was engulfed in flames that had burned for years without extinguishing.
Even from such a distance, he could still feel the intense heat that seemed capable of melting him away.
The chain itself wasn't the issue.
After all, for anyone who embarked on the path of cultivation...
Chains were hardly a challenge.
However, the flames that lingered on the chains, burning relentlessly over the years, could obliterate a person in an instant.
After thinking for a long time, he ultimately decided to give up.
Three days later, with his senior, there should still be hope.
Going alone would be tantamount to seeking death.
With no other choice, he returned to his dwelling.
"Why are you back?" Qin Tian looked at Xiao Wu, who had returned.
"Senior, that trial is too twisted. We should go together!"
Xiao Wu forced a bitter smile, truly shaken by the experience.
"Alright then. I'll first go with that fat guy to Qishan and see what happens."
With that, he returned to the Inner Room to continue his training.
Half a day later.
A thunderous explosion echoed from within the Inner Room.
On the street, countless people looked on in astonishment.
Two figures slowly emerged from the building.
One was covered in charred remains.
The other, however, appeared completely clean.
"Senior, your training is just too extreme, isn't it? You're perfectly fine, and I nearly died," Xiao Wu thought to himself, feeling utterly overwhelmed.
Upon hearing the explosion, he hurriedly pushed open the door to see what had happened.
As soon as the door opened, sharp sword energy sliced through the air and struck him.
That alone would have been manageable.
But mixed within that piercing sword energy was a searing heat.
It left him completely charred.
"Don't open the door lightly while I'm training. I don't want this either."
On one side, Qin Tian was stifling a laugh, nearly going insane.
This kid had truly been subjected to an experiment.
It seemed the lethality was still insufficient.
He needed to practice more.
They quickly moved to another house.
After all, there were plenty of houses, so they weren't worried about finding a place to stay.
For several consecutive days, Qin Tian was in closed-door cultivation.
With the experience from last time, no matter what strange sounds came from inside, he remained completely still.
After several days of diligent training, the Dragon-Tiger Sword Formation had been cultivated by Qin Tian to the fifth transformation.
Eternal sword intent.
The sword was drawn.
Eternal.
This is the pinnacle that the Dragon-Tiger Sword Formation can achieve.
It has also brought a revolutionary insight to Qin Tian's Sword Technique.
"Indeed, the Sword Technique can be like this. It has truly brought about a tremendous change for me. If other Sword Techniques can also be like this, then the enhancement brought to me by the Dragon-Tiger Sword Formation will surpass all previous methods."
Qin Tian was very pleased.
He had not expected that this sudden technique would bring him such a significant improvement. One must admit, these superpowers are indeed formidable.
Whether it is the techniques or the cultivation philosophies,
they are all unique and innovative.
No wonder the superpowers can stand tall at the pinnacle of the world, unshakeable. This is not without reason.
Thinking of this, Qin Tian's desire for the Three Great Sects grew even stronger.
Even a superpower like the Snow State Sword Manor, which could hardly be considered more than an ant in front of the Three Great Sects,
could possess such excellent cultivation philosophies and legacies.
Then, what about the Three Great Sects, which tower above all forces in the Southern Land?
What kind of improvement would it bring to himself?
No one knew.
The time had not yet come, and Qin Tian was once again immersed in his cultivation.
Seeing Qin Tian working so hard, Xiao Wu felt a bit guilty.
Initially planning to slack off, she also began to cultivate diligently.
Not to mention anything else, just looking at her senior, with such high cultivation, still putting in the effort. This determination was evident; such powerful strength was certainly not achieved without hard work.
She wasn't lacking either; it made sense why there was such a gap between her and these Heavenly Pride individuals.
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the agreed-upon day.
Early in the morning, Qin Tian got up, arranged the formation in his room, and then bid farewell to Xiao Wu as he headed toward the outskirts of the city.
Today, Phoenix City seemed a bit less crowded.
Clearly, some strong individuals had already passed through the trials of Phoenix City.
Because the Underworld City trial was gone, newcomers could no longer arrive.
As a result, the number of people here would only continue to dwindle.
Until some, realizing they could not pass the trial, regretfully departed for broader territories.
This place would once again become a desolate city.
From then on, starting from the Vermilion Bird Star Domain, the Second City, and Phoenix City, no one would appear anymore.
There was no way around it; after Qin Tian caused the Underworld City and the Ghost Gate Trial to vanish, those who were teleported to the Vermilion Bird Region would likely curse this fellow.
And now, this shameless guy had already arrived outside the city.
The scorching flames baked Qin Tian, causing him to sweat profusely.
"You've come?"
Just as Qin Tian was still adjusting, a familiar voice echoed from afar.
It was indeed the Fat Man.
"The things you placed on me are quite well hidden. If it weren't for my special methods, I might have really been kept in the dark."
The Fat Man chuckled.
However, anyone could hear that there was little blame in his laughter.
After all, in such matters, caution was always best.
If Qin Tian had done nothing and simply trusted himself to go to Qishan with him, the Fat Man would have to seriously consider whether to take this guy along.
Qin Tian smiled slightly.
"Likewise. I've already seen what you've placed on me. However, I have a clear conscience, so I never mentioned it to Xiao Wu. You should know that by now?"
As Qin Tian's words fell, the Fat Man was momentarily taken aback but quickly returned to his usual demeanor.
"Alright then, let's set off!"
