Qin Wentian stared at the other holy maidens. Out of the nine holy maidens, only six of them had managed to comprehend all eighty-one parasol leaves.
These six holy maidens were: Nanfeng Qingruo, Nanfeng Shengge, Nanfeng Aoxue, Nanfeng Xihua, Nanfeng Yi, and Namhwang Yunxi.
The protectors of the six holy maidens were also the six strongest groups. Only then would they be able to comprehend in peace and not be disturbed by others. Right now, they could only rely on their own comprehension abilities.
Qin Wentian could see that the ones with the highest comprehension abilities were Namhwang Yunxi, Nanfeng Shengge, Nanfeng Qingruo, and Nanfeng Aoxue. Nanfeng Xihua and Nanfeng Yi were ranked second.
From Qin Wentian's perspective, the one with the highest chance of becoming the Holy Successor would definitely be one of the top four. They were also the four most popular among the holy maidens of the Namhwang Clan. Not only were they extremely powerful, their protectors were also extremely powerful. Naturally, Nanfeng Xihua and Nanfeng Yi weren't inferior as well, it was just that they were relatively stronger.
Namhwang Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge both comprehended all eighty-one parasol leaves at the same time. A terrifying aura gushed forth from the two of them as a raging wind gusted by. A pair of resplendent phoenix wings appeared behind their backs, completely fusing into their bodies. That terrifying pair of wings seemed to circulate with mystical runic light. The flowing light contained the sharpness of swords and sabers, as well as a terrifying scorching heat, giving off an intense sense of power and beauty.
"How beautiful. If I didn't know that they are humans, I would have thought that their true form is that of a saint beast, a phoenix." Jun Mengchen mumbled. Namhwang Yunxi's wings were so natural, as though they belonged to her. Not only was there no disharmony, they were extremely beautiful instead. This kind of beauty was half holy, half seductive, there was an indescribable sense of beauty.
Namhwang Yunxi opened her eyes as her wings fluttered, as though she was very familiar with this feeling. Her wings landed on Qin Wentian as a gentle smile appeared on Qin Wentian's face. These phoenix wings were able to increase her strength. As expected of the ancestral ground of the Namhwang Clan, it was truly a wondrous place.
With a flap of her wings, numerous parasol leaves flew out, flying into the distance. The other three holy maidens didn't have any joy on their faces when they saw this scene. Nanfeng Yunxi and the other two holy maidens had already comprehended more than half of the parasol leaves and transformed them into phoenix wings. Even if they comprehended all the remaining leaves, it wouldn't be enough. They had no fate with these phoenix wings.
"Come up to my wings." Namhwang Yunxi spoke, her words causing Qin Wentian to stiffen. However, he only heard Namhwang Yunxi continuing, "We want to enter the first level of the ancestral ground. Only those with phoenix wings would be able to enter. After you guys come up, hold onto my wings tightly and don't let go. I will bring you guys in."
As the sound of her voice faded, Nanfeng Yunxi floated up into the air. Qin Wentian nodded his head, he didn't argue any further. The three of them directly flew to the back of Nanfeng Yunxi's beautiful phoenix wings, grabbing onto the feathers tightly, not letting go.
The same scene happened over at Nanfeng Shengge's side as well. After that, Nanfeng Qingruo and Nanfeng Aoxue respectively comprehended phoenix wings.
"Bzz ~" A raging wind gusted as Namhwang Yunxi soared forward, resembling a fiery red bolt of lightning.
Nanfeng Yunxi's eyes were beautiful to the extreme, as though there were flames burning within them. She stared at the illusory gate in front of her that transformed into the diagram of a phoenix. Her phoenix wings flapped madly as she flew towards it.
"RUMBLE!" A terrifying energy blasted into Qin Wentian and the others. After that, they discovered that they had indeed arrived at the next level. Glancing behind them, they saw Nanfeng Ling and the other two holy maidens trying to ram their way through the spatial barrier. However, they were unable to do so at all. This was proof of Namhwang Yunxi's words.
After that, another figure appeared. It was Nanfeng Shengge. She exchanged glances with Namhwang Yunxi while her protectors coldly glanced at Qin Wentian and the others. This was especially so for Kong Ye. His gaze was extremely sharp, and the might of a third-level immortal-foundation expert was extremely powerful.
"What's on those leaves?" Qin Wentian stared ahead. This space was still as beautiful as ever. The ancient parasol tree's roots intertwined with each other, and the ground was littered with fallen leaves. Each and every leaf seemed to be imprinted with the glow of fire.
Namhwang Yunxi stared at the leaves fluttering in the air. Qin Wentian and the others couldn't see it, but Namhwang Yunxi could. This was the ancestral ground of the Namhwang Clan.
"Life from death." Nanfeng Yunxi mumbled in a low voice. Her gaze stared ahead and over there, there was a gigantic ancient parasol tree. In the middle of the towering ancient tree, there was a terrifying vortex that seemed to be a path of nirvanic rebirth. A terrifying aura gushed forth from it.
"From there, we can enter the next space. But on the path of nirvana, we have to seek life from death." Namhwang Yunxi pointed in a direction as she spoke. Her silhouette floated forward as Qin Wentian and the other two followed closely behind.
At this moment, Nanfeng Qingruo also entered this space.
"Only the three Holy Maidens can enter." Namhwang Yunxi spoke. Qin Wentian's heart trembled when he heard this. It felt like everything was already destined. In the first space, there were three people who didn't manage to forge their phoenix wings. And now, only three of them could enter. Until the last person became the Holy Successor, they would continue to temper themselves.
Very swiftly, Qin Wentian and the others arrived at the terrifying path of nirvana. An incomparably scorching aura gushed forth, causing Qin Wentian to feel terror. But even so, Qin Wentian saw Namhwang Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge entering the path of nirvana with no hesitation. Their bodies were instantly engulfed in flames, but their footsteps were resolute as they continued forward.
"Kong Ye, help me guard the path of nirvana." Nanfeng Shengge's voice rang out. Kong Ye nodded lightly. At this moment, Nanfeng Qingruo and the others walked over. She glanced at Qin Wentian, Kong Ye and the others as she spoke, "The path of nirvana can allow three people to walk side by side. Including me, there are three of us."
Kong Ye and Qin Wentian exchanged glances before stepping aside. Nanfeng Qingruo stepped into the path of nirvana. Her protector, Jiang Ziyu, also walked over, guarding the path of nirvana. They didn't speak to each other, they only stared ahead. Nanfeng Aoxue arrived and when she saw the three of them entering the path of nirvana, her countenance turned extremely unsightly to behold.
She had used too much time in the first space and missed the opportunity.
However, she, Nanfeng Aoxue, was the strongest among the holy maidens of the Namhwang Clan. How could she not have a spot?
"Step aside." Nanfeng Aoxue's protector, the golden condor Zong Zhan, stepped out as he spoke in a domineering tone.
Kong Ye radiated a dazzling light as his third-level immortal-foundation aura circulated around him. How could he step aside?
Although Jiang Ziyu was only at the second-level of immortal-foundation, he was a disciple of the ancient Jiang Clan and was extremely mysterious and powerful. Just a single glance from him would cause one to feel the sharpness of his aura. In addition, there was also a powerful protector at the third-level of immortal-foundation beside him. One couldn't help but say that Nanfeng Qingruo's charm was extremely great. Both of her protectors were extremely powerful. Even Nanfeng Aoxue couldn't help but to frown when she saw this. Eventually, her gaze landed on Qin Wentian's group.
"There are three paths of nirvana and only three people can pass through it. Right now, the three of them have each occupied one of the paths." The others couldn't see it clearly but Nanfeng Aoxue could. The three paths of nirvana in the vortex didn't interfere with each other but there were only three of them. Right now, the three of them have already been engulfed by the blazing flames and entered the depths of the nirvana path.
"The path you guys are on, step aside." Zong Zhan instantly understood Nanfeng Aoxue's meaning. There was no need to offend all three paths of nirvana. They only needed to seize one of them.
The three camps before them were all extremely powerful but the weakest one was clearly the camp of Qin Wentian and the other two first-level immortal-foundation experts. Although Qin Wentian and the other two had proven their combat prowess before, to the others, Qin Wentian and the others, their cultivation bases were still a little weaker compared to the people here.
Zong Zhan, the descendant of a demon emperor, Nanfeng Aoxue, the strongest among the holy maidens of this generation of the Namhwang Clan, with a cultivation base at the third-level of immortal-foundation. Just the two of them alone were sufficient to suppress Qin Wentian's group.
"Bullying us?" Jun Mengchen's eyes flashed with coldness, feeling somewhat unhappy. How infuriating, their cultivation bases were just a little lower. Did they think they were easy to bully?
There were three paths of nirvana and they wanted to seize their path?
"There's no more time." Nanfeng Aoxue's aura instantly erupted forth. The might of a third-level immortal-foundation expert was extremely tyrannical, capable of suppressing everything. Her entire body was bathed in fiery light as her phoenix immortal-foundation manifested. She was also a king-grade immortal-foundation expert, and in addition to her cultivation base, the halo of light around her was incomparably resplendent.
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!" Qin Wentian, Jun Mengchen and Purgatory's auras instantly erupted forth. Other than Nanfeng Aoxue and Zong Zhan, there were still two others. One of them was Rong Xiao, who was defeated by Qin Wentian, and the other was a second-level immortal-foundation expert. They absolutely couldn't allow Nanfeng Aoxue to step onto the path of nirvana. Right now, it was unknown what Namhwang Yunxi was experiencing right now. Most probably, she had already temporarily lost her combat prowess.
Zong Zhan domineeringly stepped out, blasting out with a single strike. A moment later, the golden condor swooped over, containing a terrifying attack power.
"Mengchen, you go." Qin Wentian spoke. Jun Mengchen stepped out, carrying an entire world on his back. He punched out, causing chaos in the sky and earth, shattering everything.
Nanfeng Aoxue stabbed out with a finger strike towards Qin Wentian. Her attack was akin to a phoenix sword, containing a fearsome penetrative might.
Qin Wentian released the might of his perfect saint-grade immortal-foundation. His body circulated with a dazzling light as the Shadow of the Divine Turtle shone, enveloping him. Immortal energy coalesced into an ancient halberd as he slashed out with the speed of lightning, shattering Nanfeng Aoxue's attack.
Rong Xiao and the other expert rushed out. Purgatory reverted back to her original form, guarding the entrance. The two of them rushed towards Nanfeng Aoxue at the same time.
"Scram!" After Qin Wentian destroyed Nanfeng Aoxue's attack, the ancient halberd in his hand shot out explosively, flying straight towards Rong Xiao. That ancient halberd contained a heaven-shaking destructive might as it slashed through the air. Rong Xiao's countenance drastically changed as he frantically tried to defend. However, a thunderous boom rang out as the ancient halberd slashed towards him. Rong Xiao frantically retreated, transforming into a phantom.
"Puchi!" A wound appeared on Rong Xiao's body as he retreated far away. The destructive might ravaged his body, causing his countenance to turn pale. What was even more unbearable was the humiliation of being defeated. He actually couldn't even withstand a single strike.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Nanfeng Aoxue's face turned frosty when she saw Qin Wentian splitting his attention to injure Rong Xiao. Her killing intent was extremely terrifying!
