Douluo Continent: The Phoenix God Returns

Chapter 94 Swordsmanship Training

"The Phoenix God's Fourth Trial: The Wind Element Test."

The fourth-generation Phoenix Goddess was a woman with long blue hair and a long sword in her hand. When Ye Li looked at her, he felt a chill run down his spine. The terrifying sword intent made him feel breathless.

"Great-Grandma," Ye Li said respectfully as she approached the woman.

"What I possess is the wind element and the way of the sword. Your Flame Phoenix Sword was made by me. Now what you need to do is to comprehend the wind element and integrate the characteristics of the wind into the way of the sword."

The woman looked at Ye Li, waved her hand, and changed the terrain. What appeared in front of her was a huge canyon. Before she even got close, Ye Li felt a strong wind pressure.

Ye Li took a deep breath, steadied himself, and began to cautiously walk towards the canyon. As he approached, the wind pressure grew stronger and stronger, as if it would crush him.

But he gritted his teeth and moved forward step by step with difficulty, trying to feel the flow of the wind around him and to experience its characteristics.

With each step he took, he could feel the wind whistling past him, as if telling some secret. When he finally stepped into the canyon, a gale swept in like a raging torrent, making his clothes flutter loudly.

Ye Li closed his eyes, immersing himself completely in the world of wind. He tried to relax and let the power of the wind flow through his body.

Gradually, he seemed to have captured some of the rhythm of the wind, and he began to try to combine these insights with his own swordsmanship.

The Flame Phoenix Sword in his hand moved at will, drawing strange trajectories in the wind. The sword's momentum was sometimes as fierce as a gale, and sometimes as gentle as a breeze.

Time passed slowly, and Ye Li continued to explore and experiment in the canyon. He became more and more proficient in the fusion of wind elements and swordsmanship. The wind pressure that once made his heart tremble now seemed to become his help, propelling him forward.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Li felt as if he had become one with the wind in the canyon, and every movement he made carried the rhythm of the wind. He opened his eyes, which sparkled with excitement.

Ye Li looked towards the fourth-generation Phoenix God in the distance and said loudly, "Great-Grandma, I think I understand now!"

The woman smiled and nodded, her eyes filled with relief and anticipation.

Ye Li took a deep breath, gripped the Flame Phoenix Sword again, and felt the wonderful sensation of becoming one with the wind. His figure flashed, and he moved through the canyon like a ghost. The sword shadows accompanied by the sound of the wind intertwined to create a magnificent scene.

The fourth-generation Phoenix Goddess looked at Ye Li's progress with approval in her eyes, but she knew it was far from enough. With a gentle wave of her hand, even more powerful whirlwinds appeared in the canyon, howling with unparalleled power.

Seeing this, Ye Li's expression hardened, but he showed no sign of backing down. He charged forward into the whirlwind, his Flaming Phoenix Sword wielding ever more fiercely in the wind, each strike precisely targeting the whirlwind's weaknesses. With each attempt and breakthrough, he gradually discovered that his understanding of the wind element had deepened considerably.

In the fierce battle against the whirlwind, Ye Li's aura continued to rise. His swordplay became increasingly domineering, and the power of the wind was fully displayed on his body. He fought while simultaneously comprehending the elements, striving to achieve a perfect harmony between his swordsmanship and the wind element.

At this moment, the fourth-generation Phoenix God slowly walked over, looked at Ye Li and said, "Not bad, you have made great progress, but this is just the beginning. There are many more challenges waiting for you."

Ye Li nodded solemnly, her eyes filled with determination and persistence.

The fourth-generation Phoenix God gently raised his hand, and a beam of azure light flowed into the Flame Phoenix Sword in Ye Li's hand, causing the Flame Phoenix Sword to emit a joyful sound.

"This power will lend you a hand at crucial moments. Next, go to the Tower of Wind, where you can further comprehend the true meaning of the wind element," the fourth-generation Phoenix God said, pointing to a towering building that reached into the clouds in the distance.

Ye Li took a deep breath and walked towards the Tower of Wind.

The moment he stepped through the tower gate, a powerful gust of wind rushed towards him, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes. But he gripped the Flame Phoenix Sword tightly and climbed upwards step by step with unwavering determination.

Each level of the tower presents a different test of wind, whether it be a raging tornado or a strange whirlwind formation. Relying on her previous insights and ever-improving strength, Ye Li struggles to overcome one challenge after another.

During his climb, he endured immense physical and mental hardship, gaining a deeper understanding of the wind element. Finally, he reached the top of the Tower of Wind.

The wind howled fiercely, as if to tear everything apart. Ye Li stood in the gale, closed his eyes, and focused entirely on feeling the extreme power of the wind. His body gradually glowed with a faint blue light, merging with the surrounding wind.

After an unknown amount of time, Ye Li suddenly opened her eyes, swung the Flame Phoenix Sword in her hand, and a sharp sword aura rushed into the distance with the wind, leaving a deep mark on the sky.

At this moment, the fourth-generation Phoenix God also appeared at the top of the tower, looking at Ye Li with satisfaction and smiling: "Very good, you have mastered the fusion of wind element and swordsmanship."

Ye Li looked at the fourth-generation Phoenix God with a determined gaze and said earnestly, "Grandma, I understand. I will continue to work hard to improve myself and make the fusion of wind element and swordsmanship even more perfect."

The fourth-generation Phoenix God nodded slightly, his eyes full of expectation, and slowly said, "The Phoenix God has passed the fourth test, and his soul ring has been upgraded."

After speaking, the phantom of the fourth-generation Phoenix God's soul slowly dissipated and merged into Ye Li's fourth soul ring. The color of the divine ring was cinnabar blue, echoing the previous three divine rings. Ye Li's strength was now at the God King realm. The God King realm required four divine rings, but to break through to the highest level, seven divine rings were needed.
