A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

The only problem is... the playtime is just too short!

It's so short that even it can't stand it!

How could a young prodigy like Lin Xiu have such a hidden ailment?

The crane felt it was time to repay Lin Xiu, so it took the initiative to offer help in his time of need.

You're welcome.

This is all it should do!

.......

Lin Xiu: "......"

"Senior Crane, I think you've misunderstood something."

"However, this technique does have some effect on me, so I will gladly accept it."

The "little bit" that Lin Xiu mentioned was truly "little bit" that could only be thrown into the Daoist space and evolve on its own.

"Yes, please accept it."

The crane didn't take Lin Xiu's words too seriously; it was enough that Lin Xiu accepted them.

Men are like that; they have to give Lin Xiu some face, right?

"Alright, everyone outside has pretty much gone through the underground palace test. Young friend Lin, how about we go out and join them?"

The crane looked at Lin Xiu, asking for his opinion.

Judging from the crane's behavior, its trust and friendliness towards Lin Xiu has increased dramatically.

Lin Xiu nodded:

"Alright, let's meet them then!"

"Those young talents performed very well, and I look forward to their future performances!"

Lin Xiu was generous in encouraging those young talents.

Because after going through the trials of the Chaotic Valley Palace, many people reached the passing grade for "triggering system rewards," and he received a huge wave of rewards.

Chapter 319 The Phoenix of the Feng Family Greets Brother Ye

During his time in the Armor Hero world, Lin Xiu preached the Dao and received numerous rewards in terms of skill direction and elemental affinity.

Now, Lin Xiu has obtained many talent rewards that are helpful for cultivation, including: "Calm Mind and Tranquil Spirit", "Perseverance in Dao Heart", "Affinity with Spiritual Energy", "Combat Expert", "Affinity with the Great Dao of Living Beings", and so on.

These cultivation rewards aren't particularly strong, but they are plentiful and, when combined, can still have a significant effect, far surpassing the talent rewards in the Armor Hero world.

All I can say is that cultivators are like that; they are much stronger than ordinary people.

.......

the other side.

Outside the Chaotic Ancient Palace, all the young prodigies had completed their exploration of the Chaotic Ancient Palace, and many of them had achieved remarkable results and were exchanging their experiences.

Unfortunately, not everyone has the same conditions as the imperial family's offspring. Many independent cultivators, and even many disciples of holy lands who only possess the inheritance of a saint, have all risen through the ranks by their own efforts. If given the same opportunities, they might not be much weaker than the imperial family's offspring.

The biggest beneficiaries of this trial were the young prodigies who hadn't received systematic training; they were also the ones who gave Lin Xiu the most rewards.

While exchanging ideas with Li Heishui and the others, Pang Bo waited for Ye Fan and Weiwei to come out.

Li Heishui: "Brother Pang, I didn't expect you to be such a young prodigy. You actually passed the second level of the test, while we've been stuck on the first level the whole time."

Tu Fei: "Sigh~ Black people shouldn't show their skills~ Brother Pang, from now on, our little group will depend on you to hold things together!"

Originally, given the talents of Li Heishui and Tu Fei, they were not qualified to ascend Donglai Immortal Mountain.

But, what can you do when their family is rich?

Lin Xiu naturally wouldn't refuse if someone was willing to pay money to buy a spot.

In any case, the truly valuable things on Donglai Immortal Mountain can only be obtained through talent. So what if we have to spend money? Those who can afford to spend money are all powerful figures. Getting those powerful figures to spend money to get people in is more conducive to the future expansion of Donglai Immortal Mountain.

Faced with the flattery of his cronies, Pang Bo put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly:

"Haha~ Brothers, you flatter me. I'm just benefiting from the influence of Ye Zi, the Holy Lord, and the Supreme Holy Lord."

"As a pillar of this sacred land, now that Ye Zi has been expelled, I should shoulder even greater responsibility."

Pang Bo originally wanted to help Ye Fan return to the Holy Land, but Ye Fan chose to give up after some thought.

Now that he has half an imperial weapon, he can ask Tu Tian for help in case of major events, so he doesn't really need Tian Xuan's protection.

For him, all he needed was a platform to communicate with Lin Xiu. This platform didn't necessarily have to be Tianxuan; Donglai Immortal Mountain would also suffice.

Of course, Ye Fan still hoped that Pang Bo would stay at Tianxuan.

After all... Pang Bo is different from him; he doesn't have the so-called destiny of a Heavenly Emperor.

Although Pang Bo was helpless, he had to admit that Ye Fan was right. The fact that Ye Fan was still alive and kicking after doing so many dangerous jobs was enough to show that he was different from ordinary people.

Ye Fan can be carefree, but he can't.

Didn't you see that he was almost possessed not long after he arrived at Beidou? This incident shows that his life isn't very tough, so it's best for him to act more cautiously.

........

"They're out! The leaves are out!"

Before long, Ye Fan, Weiwei, Yan Ruyu, and the others who had held out the longest were released one after another.

Pang Bo rushed forward and patted Ye Fan's shoulder hard, laughing as he did so:

"Wow! Ye Zi, that's amazing! You actually survived the test of the Fourth Extreme Realm!"

"Say no more. As the one who charged ahead of us brothers, you have to treat us to a meal!"

Ye Fan: "......."

Upon hearing that Pang Bo was going to take advantage of him again, the smile that had just appeared on Ye Fan's face instantly froze.

Goodness, if being the strongest among the brothers means having to treat everyone to a meal, then won't he have to pay for everything from now on?

You bastard Pang Bo, you really are black-faced, black-hearted, and black-assed!

Don't ask him how he knew Pang Bo had a dark backside; it's just that it was!

"Ahem~ I can treat this time, but next time it'll be your turn, Pang Bo! You've made so much money, it's time you treated me!"

"Ok?"

As he was speaking, Ye Fan suddenly felt a slightly peculiar gaze and looked in the direction from which it came.

Ye Fan's intuition was correct.

Seeing Ye Fan react, a woman wearing a crimson-gold veil withdrew her gaze from the crowd.

The woman wore a long dress with gold and white stripes, and her face was covered with a red veil and a golden mask. Her whole body shimmered with light and radiance, exuding a noble aura that was pure and flawless, making it impossible to look directly at her.

The woman's name was Feng Huang, and she was the apple of the eye of the Feng family.

In the original novel, after Ye Fan rescued the God King Jiang Taixu, in order to repay Ye Fan's kindness, in addition to solving a series of problems for Ye Fan, the God King Jiang Taixu also found him a marriage, namely, to marry Princess Feng Huang of the Feng family.

However, Fenghuang believed she possessed the qualities of an emperor and would only marry an emperor, not the second-best Great Accomplished Saint Body in the world. Thus, the matter was put on hold.

However, when she saw Ye Fan step by step slaying the Holy Son, battling the Emperor's Son, traversing the Star Road, becoming a Great Sage, battling the Supreme, finally achieving great success, and even stepping on all paths to become the Heavenly Emperor... Feng Huang fell completely silent.

If only I had known... I wouldn't have done it in the first place!

......

Of course, as things stand, Phoenix has no grudges against Ye Fan, because... Jiang Taixu has not arranged a marriage for Ye Fan at all!

In Jiang Taixu's opinion, even if Ye Fan was to be arranged a marriage, that was Lin Xiu's business, why was he meddling in it?

And so... not only did Ye Fan escape a calamity, but Feng Huang also escaped one.

Otherwise, she would probably be recorded in the Feng family's genealogy as "the one who rejected the Heavenly Emperor" for generations to come, as a warning to future generations.

It can only be said that the Feng family has fallen on hard times.

The Feng family was once a powerful imperial family, but they suffered some great calamity, resulting in the destruction of their imperial artifacts and the loss of their imperial scriptures.

Of course, even a wrecked ship has three thousand nails. Even with only the incomplete Imperial Scripture, the Feng family has developed quite well, far surpassing ordinary families and holy lands that only have the legacy of a sage.

Therefore, after learning that many holy lands and noble families in the Eastern Wilderness were sending their prodigies to the Eastern Immortal Mountain, the Feng family hurriedly followed suit and sent their princess up there as well.

This is exactly what Phoenix wanted!

She was just worried about not having a place to show off her imperial demeanor when heaven suddenly gave her an opportunity to suppress the geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness. How could she not seize it?

Then.......

Then there is no more.

After studying on Donglai Immortal Mountain for a period of time, Fenghuang became completely obedient.

Leaving aside the difference in strength, since everyone's cultivation level is different and it's not appropriate to compare them on the same level, but... even just looking at her comprehension, she is not enough to dominate the younger generation.

Many people have figured out the secrets of the Daoist texts and the 108 peaks of Tai Xuan left behind by Lin Xiu. Some have even taken the opportunity to forge half of their own path and exchanged the complete Bible from Lin Xiu.

Although she gained some insights, she was not among the top young talents.

The subsequent Innate Dao Diagram further broke her defenses.

Lin Xiu has clearly told everyone that the strength of the Innate Dao Diagram is equivalent to each person's cultivation level, and it is only for testing the quality of each person's Great Dao.

In other words, regardless of one's cultivation level, the longer one persists under the Innate Dao Diagram, the stronger one's innate talent and the Great Dao will become.

Then... she knelt down.

Although he didn't collapse instantly, and was slightly better than the average young prodigy, he could only be considered above average at best.

So, Phoenix became completely obedient.

Although she still felt resentful, she had to accept the facts.

This trip to the Chaotic Ancient Palace was no different; it once again confirmed the fact that "she could only be considered above average among young prodigies."

That's why... she cast an admiring and inquisitive glance at Ye Fan.

She wanted to know whether Ye Fan and Weiwei were so strong because of their physical constitution, or because of Lin Xiu? Or perhaps, because of their own talent?
