My Master Knows It All

511: 183_2 511: 183_2 She cultivated Fire Techniques and could release various types of flames, yet at this moment she felt as though all the divine flames from her techniques had vanished without a trace, merging into this flame before her.

Suddenly, an endless stream of medicinal properties burst into her body, these properties just as fiercely hot, like flame itself, instantly enveloping the hair-thin flames formed inside her, seemingly about to swallow them whole.

Almost at the same moment, outside, her master’s voice came through once more.

“Do not let those flames consume your flames, you must make your flames consume it, believe in yourself, you can do it!”

Yi Sheng clenched her teeth tightly, and a sudden surge of overwhelming battle intent burst forth within her.

Instantly, the flames she had formed inside her body grew stronger, instead turning to devour the medicinal properties that had surged into her.

For a moment, inside Yi Sheng, her own flames were devouring the medicinal flame, while outside her body, the scorching high temperatures from the Pill Furnace continued to sear her.

All the Spiritual Energy and strength within her surged into her own flames, leaving her body completely unprotected.

Heatwaves struck, and her body even emitted the crackling sounds of being roasted.

Cao Zhen could no longer offer any help; now, all he could do was to delay the formation of the Pill, to buy Yi Sheng more time.

Yi Qiancheng had brought the Pill just past noon, but now, night had already fallen.

Being a person who valued health preservation, he would usually have been asleep by this time, yet now, he stood outside the room specially arranged for Cao Zhen to refine Pills, pacing back and forth anxiously as he watched the room from which light from the burning flames continuously shot out.

The last time he had been this anxious was when his youngest son was born.

Standing by his side were his four sons.

Yi Zhao, Yi Cai, Yi Jin, Yi Bao.

The names of these four sons were chosen by their grandfather, forming the phrase “attracting wealth and treasure,” and what’s more, their grandfather had even thought of names for the four daughters.

Business flourishes.

But to this day, he only had one daughter.

Thus, the family only had Yi Sheng, without a Yi Yi or others present.

Today, his four adult sons had all come to Capital City, hoping for a family reunion, but as of now, their sister had not emerged.

Their father was waiting outside, so they could only wait outside as well.

The night grew deeper.

Yi Zhao, Yi Jin, and Yi Bao had arrived in Capital City at dusk, weary from the journey, and had not rested after a simple meal, instead they waited here, their faces showing exhaustion.

Yi Jin was no better off; he had been helping his father all day.

The brothers waited there, but Ling Xi, Yan Yourong, and others didn’t wait at this place, instead each was in their rooms, cultivating their Divine Skills.

After a long while, the sky gradually began to clear.

Yi Bao glanced at the sky, feeling as if his legs were no longer his own, and stood almost on the verge of sleep; he really couldn’t hold on any longer.

He looked at Yi Qiancheng standing in front and quietly pulled at his eldest brother Yi Zhao, pointing at their father with a look full of pleading, hoping his elder brother would persuade their father.

At their side, Yi Cai and Yi Jin both looked at their eldest brother as well.

Yi Zhao, feeling the pleading gazes of his three younger brothers, finally nodded his head, walked up to Yi Qiancheng, pointed at the sun that had risen in the sky, and whispered, “Father, it’s daylight now, look, the sun has risen, perhaps we should go back first.”

As his words fell, accompanying the rising sun,

a phoenix’s cry suddenly resounded from within the room.

It was crisp and bright, yet also full of endless majesty, an unassailable noble aura.

It was one voice, yet it felt as if two voices merged into one.

Almost at the same moment everyone heard the phoenix’s cry, the vast room exploded violently, and a column of flame soared up; it was unclear whether it was the sound or the flame that shattered the room.

The fire shot straight into the sky, the outer edges of the flame tinged with a purple glow, while the flames in the center were a deep scarlet.

Within the firelight, the silhouettes of two Sacred Beast Phoenixes, spoken of in legends, emerged.

One resembled a Phoenix, and the other a Fenghuang.

Cao Zhen, feeling the first rays of dawn sunlight shining down, immediately sensed a major shift in the atmosphere inside the Pill Furnace, and at the same time, the personal panel he was closely monitoring for Yi Sheng added a new piece of information.

Scarlet Flame Heavenly Phoenix: Level 1.

Yi Sheng had successfully cultivated into a Scarlet Flame Heavenly Phoenix.

Cao Zhen hesitated no more, and seeing the Human Pill nearly completely condensed, he fiercely cast an Alchemy Technique.

Instantly, the already solidified medicinal shell around Yi Sheng shattered into pieces, turning into a powdery dust.

In the next moment, the Pill Furnace containing Yi Sheng exploded completely, and the entire room, under the scorching fire, turned instantly into ashes.

“Oh no, the Pill Furnace!”

Cao Zhen, shocked, quickly mobilized his Mana, releasing two protective shields to safeguard the two Pills that were still in the process of refinement.

Amidst the burning flames, Yi Sheng’s charred figure was revealed.

Her clothes had already turned to ash during her cultivation, hence naturally her body was also scorched pitch-black.

The flames enveloping Yi Sheng were so bright that Yi Qiancheng and his four sons, mere mortals, could only see a bright blaze and couldn’t make out the figure within the flames at all; they could merely vaguely sense a human silhouette.
