“Nothing…?” Ling Xian frowned.
His real goal with this trip was to find the Nirvana Fountain of Real Phoenixes. If it was truly like what the elder had said and that it doesn’t exist in this mysterious place, then he will have to give up all his hope.
“Many people thought the pure blooded phoenix left behind the Nirvana Fountain. But 1,000 years has passed and nobody has found anything.”
The elder shook his head and sighed, “So I suggest you not to waste your energy. It is a waste of time and emotions. You will end up disappointed.”
Hearing this, Ling Xian went silent.
The Nirvana Fountain will deem whether or not he can successfully metamorphose. Though this wasn’t the only way, it was the best way.
Therefore, he could not give up no matter what. Even if there is 1 out of 10,000 chance, he had to try his hardest.
“Whether or not the Nirvana Fountain exists, I have to try and see. Or else this journey would be a waste.”
Ling Xian faintly smiled. “Do you know where exactly that real phoenix fell?”
“I do know.”
The elder nodded. “At the East Domain, The Ridge of the Fallen Phoenix.”
“The Ridge of the Fallen Phoenix, that name sure is suiting.” Ling Xian smiled and decided to visit first. Even if he doesn’t find it, it’d be okay. He will treat it like he went on a trip.”
“Since you have made up your mind, then I won’t say more.”
The elder softly sighed. “However, you have to be careful. The Ridge of the Fallen Phoenix is now under the Wang Clan’s possession. Do not anger that powerful force.”
“The Wang Clan?”
Ling Xian frowned, “Which Wang Clan?”
“There are many Clans with the last name Wang, but only one is considered the most talented in Tianzhou.”
The elder spoke softly then made a statement that became deeply imprinted in Ling Xian’s memories.
“The Wang Clan from the Luofu Mountain.”
At those words, Ling Xian frowned slightly, feeling like those words were somewhat familiar. After some time, he remembered that back in the City of Qing, Guo Suo Xin once mentioned the news about the Lake of the Resting Soul.
That was at the Wang Clan from the Luofu Mountain.
As much as he felt coincidental, his eyes couldn’t help but brighten.
He never forgot about his mission to find the five treasure of the healing soul. If the Wang Clan has the Lake of the Resting Soul, then no matter what, he will need to acquire it.
Of course, he never planned on using brute force, because that’s not realistic. Based on what the elder was saying, the Wang Clan’s real capability must be extremely powerful and it is probably one of the top talents in Tianzhou.
Therefore, with his cultivation right now, how can he go up against the Wang Clan?
Therefore, Ling Xian planned on getting in contact with the Wang Clan and see if he can exchange any treasures for the Lake of the Resting Soul. After all, he had a lot of treasures in his storage pouch. They are easily comparable to the treasure hut of a force.
“Don’t worry, I will remember.”
Ling Xian smiled. “I am not stupid, I will not cause conflict against the Wang Clan.”
“That would be for the best.”
The elder stopped worrying. Though he doesn’t like being controlled by others, he knew that with Ling Xian, a powerhouse with such a bright future, his future has brightened as well.
He even feel like the best decision he’s made this lifetime was to follow this man.
“Okay, then I will leave the Court of Thunder in your hands.”
Ling Xian smiled, his eyes flickered expectantly. “It’s time for me to go. I will head to the East Domain and visit the legendary Ridge of the Fallen Phoenix.”
Then, he tore apart space and disappeared where he stood.
Then, he dashed east and after two months, stepped into the East Domain.
“It sure is different from the Northern Desert. It is more suitable for humans to live here. Truly, here is beautiful.”
Ling Xian suspended in mid sky and peered down onto the cities below. His eyes flashed with anticipation.
Then, he drifted down and landed inside the ancient city.
“I will rest up here for a while and investigate the Wang Clan,” Ling Xian decided. He randomly found a restaurant and planned on asking the waiter.
However, just as he was about to ask, the conversation between others acquired his interest.
“Did you hear, the Library of Fortune failed yet again at acquiring students.”
“Haha, this is the 12th time.”
“It’s their fault for making their entrance exam so hard. You have to surpass the seventh level of the Heavenly Palace before you can walk into the Library of Fortunate. What a joke. Is the Heavenly Palace a place anyone can walk into? And to set it at the seventh level… they obviously don’t want any pupils.”
“Exactly, the Library of Fortune has attempted to get students 12 times and not a single person has passed.”
“Based on what I know, for the past several thousand years, Wu Qing Cheng is the only one who passed the ninth level of the Heavenly Palace.”
“Just how shockingly talented and beautiful is Fairy Qing? She is a Heaven’s Favorite who can easily defeat everyone else at the same level. Only the other Heaven’s Favorites whose name are along her side can compare to her.”
Listening to their conversation acquired Ling Xian’s interest, he asked the waiter, “Fella, what is the Heavenly Palace?”
“You don’t know about the Heavenly Palace?”
The waiter’s eyes flashed with surprise. But since Ling Xian looked extraordinary, he didn’t reveal any negative emotions. If this was anyone else, he would’ve made a face.
“If I knew, I wouldn’t be asking you.”
Ling Xian flapped around his sleeve and two high ranked spiritual stone appeared on the table, “Answer my questions and they are yours.”
“Alright, alright, customer, you sure are generous.”
The waiter’s eyes were almost shooting out flames, “The Heavenly Palace is a strange place inside the Library of Fortune. It is constructed to test cultivators. It has nine levels in total and every level is extremely difficult. Rumor has it that only the most talented ones can go through all levels of the Heavenly Palace.”
“So it is a good place to test your abilities.”
Ling Xian’s eyes brightened. He wanted to test out the Heavenly Palace and see how capable he has grown.
But, he wasn’t about to enter the Palace of Fortune as a pupil so he asked, “Waiter, I wonder how limited is this Heaven’s Palace? Are only those who are accepted allowed to enter?”
“There are no limitations to the Heaven’s Favorite. No matter what level you are, as long as you want to, you can enter. You don’t need to admit into the Library of Fortune either.”
The waiter smiled, “Could it be… you are planning on going and trying?”
“That’s right.”
Ling Xian softly nodded. His eyes shone with high expectation. Since the Heavenly Palace has no limitation then of course he wanted to go and try it out.
Hearing this, the waiter made a face that made it seem like he wanted to laugh but he didn’t dare. He looked pained and drained at concealing it.
Seeing this, Ling Xian chuckled, “You think I am overestimating myself?”
“Not that I think you are overestimating yourself. There are plenty of people who go every day. But without an exception, they get stuck at the third level.”
The waiter shook his head, “Only those famous Heaven’s Favorite can get to around the fifth level. Based on what I know, the Heavenly Palace has existed for tens and thousands of years, but only three went all the way. The most recent one is Fairy Wu.”
“And Fairy Wu is a well-known Heaven’s Favorite. She is basically undefeatable at her level. This shows just how difficult it is to get through the entire Heavenly Palace.”
“If that’s the case, then I must go check it out.” Ling Xian smiled. His eyes continued to shine with passion.
“Without some difficulty, it wouldn’t be worth my time.”
