Chapter 120 - Phoenix

Lu Yin looked at Mentor Guan Yu and said expectantly, "Mentor, can you help this disciple deduce up to nine stars?"

Mentor Guan Yu was indifferent. "We'll talk after you've left your name on the Rain List." With that, he turned and vanished.

Lu Yin's eyes were full of excitement. The Heavenly Star Art could only let him circulate eight stars. The ninth star must belong to the next part of the Heavenly Star Art. He knew he might never obtain it in his lifetime. If Mentor Guan Yu could help him deduce it, that would be great. But, could it really be deduced? Lu Yin always felt it was very unlikely. This was the Heavenly Star Art. Even though his knowledge was limited, he could feel the terror of this cultivation art.

"Leaving my name on the Rain List... I can only try again after breaking through to the Melting Realm," Lu Yin muttered to himself. He had no intention of sitting idly on the Rain Observatory Platform. He had to find a way to make money, to merge with experts, to experience their power. This was a shortcut. Now, he wanted to go to the entrance of the Trial World to participate in the Realm Spirit War.

After Lu Yin left, from within the rain screen, Mentor Guan Yu muttered to himself, "A star-circulating cultivation art, a Decipherer, haha."

Below the Realm Spirit Stone, a figure walked out, his face ugly. It was Meng Yue.

In the distance, the old man shouted, "Meng Yue, 83 losses."

Hearing that, Meng Yue's face became even uglier.

Not far away, Zhao Yilong entered the range of the Realm Spirit Stone and quickly came out as well. "Zhao Yilong, 1 win, 58 losses."

Lu Yin had just arrived when he heard Zhao Yilong's record and was a little surprised. He actually had one win. As a Reaching Realm cultivator, it was truly rare.

Around the Realm Spirit Stone at this moment, only Meng Yue and Zhao Yilong were there.

When Meng Yue saw Lu Yin arrive, his eyes showed battle intent. "Lu Yin, let's fight."

Lu Yin found it funny. "Haven't you been abused enough in the Realm Spirit War?"

Meng Yue snorted coldly. "You don't dare?"

"Wait. I have to enter the Realm Spirit War first," Lu Yin said casually.

Meng Yue's eyes lit up, and he didn't stop him.

During this period, they hadn't fought much, but it had been nearly a hundred matches. Only a few people had almost never come, and Lu Yin was one of them. A month had passed, and he also wanted to see what progress Lu Yin had made. After all, he had cultivated in the Sea of Forgotten Sands and had made considerable progress, yet he still lost eighty-three matches in a row. It was too brutal.

"By the way, who has the best record among everyone?" Lu Yin asked curiously.

"Hei Xu, 13 wins, 47 losses, including one four-win streak," Meng Yue said with envy.

Lu Yin nodded and stepped into the range of the Realm Spirit Stone.

Zhao Yilong wasn't very interested in Lu Yin and turned to leave.

At the same time, Michelle arrived. Her record was 6 wins, 29 losses. Today, she wanted to challenge a few more times. As soon as she arrived, she saw Lu Yin's back as he entered. A glint flashed in her eyes, and she stood not far away, watching quietly.

The last time he had come, Lu Yin had challenged five times and lost all five. The memory was still fresh for him. Although his strength had increased a lot today, he didn't feel he could do much better. The Realm Spirit War had no realm restrictions; as long as a young person touched the Realm Spirit Stone, they could enter. Melting Realm cultivators like Michelle and Hei Xu had been defeated so miserably. Lu Yin just hoped his luck would be a bit better and he could get a three-win streak to complete the highest Reaching Realm mission from the Treasure Pavilion.

With a flash before his eyes, the roar of the sea waves came to his ears. Lu Yin scanned his surroundings. It was on the sea again, a fishy smell hitting his face.

"The sea again," Lu Yin muttered. In front of him, a figure appeared, and with it, a berserk Star Energy that crushed down without restraint, causing the sea to boil and sweeping through the heavens and the earth.

Under this Star Energy, Lu Yin was like a small boat that could capsize at any time.

"A Limiteer Realm expert," Lu Yin thought, unlucky. The figure in front of him didn't stop after appearing but immediately attacked. His body quickly appeared in front of Lu Yin, and he threw a punch.

Through the Heavenly Star Art, Lu Yin could see the person's movement trajectory, but he couldn't dodge. The person's Star Energy had condensed into a substance, sealing the surrounding area. To dodge, he could only attack. He now had two choices: one was to attack the Star Energy sealing the area, the other was to attack the person's body.

Lu Yin didn't hesitate. He raised his palm, Sixfold Six-Wave Palm.

Boom!

The berserk shockwave tore apart the sea. Lu Yin was shattered by the opponent's punch and was directly defeated. As for the opponent, he only paused for a moment.

On the sea, the Limiteer Realm expert was surprised. "A Reaching Realm cultivator can actually make my attack pause. Another prodigy."

"Lu Yin, 6 losses," the old man's voice sounded in his ear.

Lu Yin walked out helplessly, coming face to face with Michelle.

Michelle ignored him and directly entered the range of the Realm Spirit Stone.

Meng Yue walked up to Lu Yin. "It's our turn."

"You're no match for me," Lu Yin said.

Meng Yue said coldly, "How do we know without trying? I'll make my move." He was about to attack when he was suddenly pressed to the ground by an invisible force. It was the old man in the distance. "No fighting at the world entrance."

Lu Yin ignored Meng Yue and kept his eyes on the Realm Spirit Stone.

Before long, Michelle came out, her expression calm.

"Michelle, 6 wins, 30 losses."

Meng Yue was still being pressed to the ground by the old man. Lu Yin went in right after Michelle.

Michelle didn't go far, still waiting.

This time, Lu Yin appeared on a huge rubble platform. The figure of his opponent had already appeared.

Lu Yin looked over and was delighted. Another Reaching Realm cultivator. The probability of encountering a Reaching Realm cultivator in the Realm Spirit War was too small; he hadn't expected to run into one.

In a distant, unfamiliar starry sky, in a dark forest, Realm Spirit Stones dotted the sky above the forest like stars. Under one of the Realm Spirit Stones, a young man sat quietly. Outside the Realm Spirit Stone, a few people were waiting scattered around.

"By my calculations, Junior Brother Hart should have already won one or two matches. Today, he's very likely to get a three-win streak and complete the highest Reaching Realm mission," a young man said calmly.

"Of course. The only one who can get a three-win streak in the Realm Spirit War as a Reaching Realm cultivator is Junior Brother Hart. He's that great lord's younger brother, with the bloodline of the undying phoenix," someone next to him immediately chimed in.

"Even if he runs into a Melting Realm expert, he has a great chance of winning, unless it's a Limiteer."

"As long as Junior Brother Hart completes that mission, the reputation of our Fifth Academy will grow, and we will surely advance further in the ten-academy competition."

...

On the rubble platform, Hart was surprised. He had already won two matches and hadn't expected to run into a Reaching Realm cultivator in the third. His luck was too good.

Hart Phoenix? Lu Yin looked at the name above the head of the figure opposite him. This wasn't a handle; it was a real name. This person was extremely confident, directly using his real name to enter the Realm Spirit War.

Boom!

The two attacked at the same time. Lu Yin's palm turned into a claw, and he immediately used 20 forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw. No one who entered the Realm Spirit War could be underestimated, especially those who used their real names; they had strong confidence in themselves. Lu Yin could feel the threat from the person opposite him.

Hart raised his hand, and scorching high-temperature flames swelled out, enveloping the Heavenly Beast Claw.

With a boom, Lu Yin's Heavenly Beast Claw was turned into nothingness by the high temperature. He was surprised. A talent? Such a strong talent. Even a Melting Realm cultivator would find it hard to withstand this high temperature.

Hart didn't react at all to the Heavenly Beast Claw. The flames roared and rushed towards Lu Yin. Among Reaching Realm cultivators, no one was his opponent. This was the invincible belief from his Phoenix family: invincible in the same realm.

The rubble platform was melted by the high temperature.

Lu Yin used Void Flash to dodge, but the flames even distorted the void. Hart's whole body was wrapped in flames, and he attacked Lu Yin with extreme speed.

The speed of both was extremely fast. Lu Yin's Void Flash had integrated some of the White Night clan's speed skills, while Hart's extreme speed gave him a feeling of traveling through fire. As long as there was fire, he could be there in an instant.

After more than ten consecutive clashes, Lu Yin had been passively defending. He was feeling out the bottom line of the opponent's strength.

Hart was surprised. This person could actually withstand it. Very few Reaching Realm cultivators could clash with him in his flames for so long. But it was time to end it. With this thought, Hart's figure stopped. His palms came together and then spread apart. A cry that echoed through the space rang out. In his palms, a fire bird transformed from flames appeared, distorting and burning the air as it fiercely rushed towards Lu Yin.

Lu Yin used Void Flash to dodge, but the fire bird's speed was even faster, as if it could pass through the void.

Lu Yin turned back, raised his palm, Sixfold Six-Wave Palm, Boom!

A scorching shockwave shot up into the sky, distorting the air. The huge air pressure blew away the flames and even forced Hart to retreat a few steps, looking at the distance in shock.

Lu Yin retracted his palm and stared at Hart. This person was very strong.

Hart's eyes were full of excitement. Interesting. There's actually someone in the Reaching Realm who can block one of my combat techniques.

Lu Yin didn't give Hart much time to think. This time, he took the initiative to attack, using Void Flash to appear in front of Hart. It was still the Sixfold Six-Wave Palm, the air pressure compressed, distorting the void.

Hart's eyes widened, and the flames in his palms cried out. He was a member of the undying phoenix family. How could an undying phoenix be so easily destroyed?

Boom boom boom bang!

Several terrifying explosions, and the rubble platform completely shattered. The two flew into the sky, one controlling a fire bird, scorching the earth, the other compressing air, stacking six layers of force, clashing fiercely, a dazzling light shining.
