Chapter 231: Choosing a Master
Inside the palace.
The flames on the Firebird grew more intense, and within the fiery clouds, the illusory cries of the Phoenix echoed.
Suddenly, an endless stream of crimson flames, like a pouring rain, cascaded down, attacking Lu Xuan and the others in the palace.
The handsome young man opened the Peacock Sword in his hand, and dozens of sharp flying swords shot out in a fan-shaped array. The continuous and unbroken sword intent effortlessly slashed all the approaching flames into nothingness.
The graceful woman frosty white spiritual shield enveloped her, keeping the invading fiery flames at bay.
In the hands of an ordinary-looking young man, a massive black sword emitted a dark glow, constantly devouring the falling red flames from the air.
In Lu Xuan's dantian, the Xun Thunder Sword pellet spun rapidly, emitting numerous subtle black sword rays that converged into a hurricane. Centered around him, it spun continuously, instantly shattering any flame that entered it.
After resisting the initial flame attack, the three unleashed their techniques, aggressively advancing toward the numerous Firebirds dancing in the air.
Occasionally, a Firebird would explode, turning into tiny flames.
After clearing some of the Firebirds, the three freed up their hands and flew towards the fiery clouds.
Inside the fiery clouds, the illusory Phoenix pair danced faster and faster, and the charred wood hidden within the clouds emitted a dark golden light.
Suddenly, the Phoenixes merged into one, transforming into a gigantic Firebird several dozen yards long, with its wings covering most of the palace's roof.
With a gentle flap, dark golden long spears, each burning with red flames, descended from the sky.
A fist-sized milky-white bead flew out of the handsome young man's storage bag, rapidly rotating, extending its chill to ten yards away.
As the long spears fell into the cold area, their speed slowed significantly, disintegrating section by section from the tip to the tail as they approached the young man, finally crumbling.
"Roar."
A clear and cold dragon roar echoed as a water dragon, over ten yards long, surged out from the elegant woman and shot rapidly towards the enormous dark golden Firebird in the sky.
Not far away, a pale-white giant net quietly closed in.
"It seems these three senior brothers and sisters came prepared."
"Whether it's the bead, the water dragon, or the giant net, they all contain rich water spiritual power, exerting significant restraint on the illusory Phoenix. With their seamless cooperation, it seems they will soon overpower that Phoenix."
The handsome young cultivator, with a calm demeanor on the surface but bleeding internally, landed gracefully in front of Lu Xuan and spoke gently.
Although he appeared composed, internally, he was in anguish. After all the preparations and efforts, collaborating with the other two, they thought obtaining the Phoenix wood was almost a sure thing. Unexpectedly, it fell into Lu Xuan's hands at the last moment.
How could he endure such a situation? With his current attitude, he already showed considerable restraint.
"Senior Brother wants this dark and mysterious wood? Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be impossible."
Lu Xuan turned the charred wood in his hands, changing the topic.
"But this piece of charred wood suddenly fell into my hands, indicating a deep connection between us. Giving it away would be against the will of the heavens."
"Moreover, it's just a piece of charred wood. This palace contains numerous high-grade spiritual minerals and fire spirits. Senior Brother can focus on those."
He spoke calmly.
This piece of charred wood could alert a fifth-grade Demon Ghost Vine from such a distance. It was undoubtedly extraordinary. Lu Xuan casually found a reason to politely decline the handsome young man's offer.
"Well, Junior Brother Lu, how about exchanging this charred wood with a rare third-grade flying sword I have? What do you think?"
The young man took out a golden long sword from his storage bag, a hint of urgency in his voice.
Not far away, the elegant woman and the ordinary young man silently approached, standing on either side of the young man, subtly showing signs of encircling Lu Xuan.
"Sorry, Senior Brother, I'm not interested in anything else except spiritual plants. This piece of charred wood piques my curiosity, and I won't exchange it for any other treasures."
Seeing the situation, Lu Xuan took two steps back, his tone firm.
"Junior Brother Lu, the three of us are all direct disciples of a Nascent Soul realm elder in the sect. You recently advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage. Are
you sure you want to have an unpleasant encounter with us three?"
The elegant woman spoke coldly.
"Is Senior Sister threatening me?"
The rotation speed of the black sword rays on Lu Xuan's body quietly increased.
