Despite its soaring altitude, almost grazing the clouds, the phoenix's speed rivalled specialized aircraft, covering five hundred meters every second. Within moments, the sprawling cityscape unfolded beneath Benjamin."This pace?" He mused, the shrinking city rendering him momentarily speechless.Beside him, a smug satisfaction graced Miranda's countenance. Truth be told, the phoenix wasn't hers but a legacy from an ancestor, once used for the celestial travels of ancient sages. However, as of now, procuring a second such phoenix would be a tall order for the entire Heavenly Opportunity Sect.After all, such marvels require a special energy source to operate. Known as spirit stones, only the rarest of them, the premium-grade ones, can power it.Currently, Miranda's reserve of these stones was dwindling, especially the premium ones which were becoming rarer. Such expenditure weighed heavily on her heart.However, the importance of this journey, ensuring Benjamin's timely inheritance of
Within the elder brother's heart was a profound confidence that Benjamin would not dare to strike him down.However, Benjamin did not waste words. Instantly, his grip tightened, and a surge of energy erupted from his body, causing the elder brother's face to become pale, his eyes filled with fear."Second elder, save me!"But at this moment, the second elder dared not move. Benjamin's terrifying aura had filled him with trepidation.Finally, Miranda could not hold back and hurriedly urged: "Benjamin, this is Celestial Peak, not a foreign land. If you kill the elder brother, it will be difficult for me to explain to the sect master."Hearing Miranda's counsel, Benjamin merely cast a fleeting glance her way. Moments later, his piercing gaze settled once more upon elder brother."Tell me, who gave you the audacity to berate me?"Deep within Benjamin's eyes, a chilling aura emanated, causing a tremor of fear in elder brother's heart. The latter could scarcely fathom how a mere early-stage
Upon witnessing this figure, Benjamin's eyes slightly narrowed. Concurrently, Uriah subtly signaled with his hand. Instantaneously, a lightning platform started to manifest right beneath them.Witnessing the lightning platform rising from the ground, Benjamin couldn't help but inwardly gasp in awe. However, the sword-wielding youth swiftly jumped onto the platform, his emotionless eyes fixated on Benjamin, declaring,“I am a sword cultivator, and never before has anyone compelled me to draw my sword. You shall not be an exception.”As these words flowed, Howard Lee's demeanor remained remarkably composed, as if he were merely recounting an undeniable truth.To this, Benjamin did not voice any objection. On the contrary, his gaze upon Howard Lee held a touch of intrigue."How serendipitous, I too am a swordsman. Albeit, my blade is a tad shorter. In a moment, I hope you can withstand a few of my moves."Finishing his declaration, Benjamin drew a short sword from his belt. In reality, i
The moment Howard made his move, his silhouette vanished, only to be replaced by a shadowy figure that emerged right behind him.Yet, it was as if Howard had eyes on the back of his head; he swiftly unsheathed his blade, directing it towards the looming shadow.As his sword swung out, the very air seemed to shift, a furious wind howling forth. Even Benjamin felt his escape routes being sealed off. Furthermore, an overpowering sword aura bore down on him, rendering his blood cold and causing his heart to momentarily skip a beat.But just as the blade reached him, Benjamin's form once again vanished, leaving behind only an ephemeral afterimage.Boom!With the might of a tidal wave, Howard's blade effortlessly carved a deep, half-foot trench into the arena floor, extending over ten feet in length.But then, a mix of astonishment and fear took over Howard's features. He couldn't fathom how Benjamin could be several times faster than his own swift blade strike."Impossible?!"Suddenly sens
Time seemed to blur, and just as Benjamin closed his eyes to rejuvenate, Uriah's voice resounded once more."We're here!"At this proclamation, Benjamin slowly opened his eyes. Although he had only rested for a short while, he felt a significant surge in his power.Before him stood a lavish palace, its entrance adorned with a golden plaque. While the script was ancient, Benjamin instantly recognized it: this was the Legacy Hall that Uriah had spoken of."Time to descend. No one except those with the Divine Seal can enter here. Although I'm the sect leader of Heavenly Opportunity Sect, even I cannot just walk into this place. So, Benjamin, you'll need to enter on your own. But don't worry, I've been inside once before. It's absolutely safe."Without waiting for a reply, Uriah gently waved, and Benjamin was swiftly set down in front of the palace gates.Glancing back at Uriah, Benjamin's eyes held a hint of reproach, but Uriah seemed unperturbed. With casual grace, he said: "Proceed. I
Benjamin's barrage of questions seemed to perplex the ethereal figure slightly. However, without dallying, he answered candidly."Legacy Hall, as its name suggests, is where the legacies of the founding ancestors are stored. Moreover, this place can only pass on its legacy once. Unless the recipient perishes, returning the legacy, the hall cannot be accessed again."Benjamin silently nodded, comprehending the explanation. Undeterred, the ethereal figure continued, elucidating the hall's mysteries."I am uncertain if that particular individual ever mentioned the Heavenly Opportunity Sect to you. Yet, millennia ago, our Heavenly Opportunity Sect stood proud among the ten major sects of this world, ranking shoulder-to-shoulder with the Celestial Palace. Our legacy is as vast as the seas, encompassing treasures that the external realm could scarcely contain—like the art of divination and fate determination. This is but one of our most pivotal inheritances. Moreover, techniques like artifa
“Ah, how can this be?!”“Phoe... Phoenix Burning Foot? He has the Phoenix Burning Foot on him!”“My God, what is he? How does he have the Divine Seal, and even the Phoenix Burning Foot? Moreover, what's the connection between him and that young woman?”Excited voices rang out, and a strange sensation reached Benjamin's soul, causing him to yell.“Silence!”Only now did the voices of the clusters cease, seemingly afraid of the Phoenix image above Benjamin's head.“Fine, start the inheritance now; I have no time to dally with you!”Full of energy, Benjamin moved towards a nearby cluster and grabbed it. The remaining clusters could not help but cry out in terror.However, they had no choice but to accept Benjamin's decision. The Phoenix image above his head exerted immense pressure on them.Boom!As Benjamin grasped the cluster, a powerful consciousness rushed into his soul.Initially, he felt a little dizzy and uncomfortable, but soon he absorbed all of the inheritance, laughing triumph
The spacecraft's speed was terrifying; every half second, it accelerated, traversing millions of miles. If Earth's scientists witnessed such a phenomenon, they'd likely gape in shock.Yet, atop the corridor, watching as planets whizzed by, Red, the chief general of the Autuman Kingdom from planet Namec in the Bode galaxy, appeared displeased. His gaze fixed on a subordinate nearby."Orange, how much longer until we reach planet fourteen?"Orange, a trusted aide of Red, shrank under his scrutiny, bowing low and answering hesitantly."Sir, in roughly ten days, we'll arrive at planet fourteen.""Ten days? Just ten days? You said something similar before, and now, I've roamed this cosmos for a decade. Do you fathom what I've endured?"As he spoke, Red's metallic arm shot out, lifting his subordinate off the ground, his eyes blazing with fury."Inform them to speed up the ship. I want to reach planet fourteen by tomorrow, not in three days!"With those words, Red forcefully threw his subor
