So that's why …
This was the Spiritual Fire of the Beast God and Beast Emperor!
Everyone was silent. The fact that the Spiritual Fire appeared in the hands of this little beast was enough to prove that the Beast God and Beast Emperor had passed away!
A wave of grief slowly spread out from the few of them. Their eyes were a little moist and red. Fang Lanxian and Xue Yifeng's tears even dripped down.
The two guardians had protected the sect for thousands of years and made great contributions to the Yan Sect. It could be said that they had dedicated their entire lives to the sect.
It was admirable, pitiful, and sorrowful …
The two guardians had passed away. What would happen to the Yan Sect in the future? Who would protect it?
Everyone looked at the little fellow. It was the successor of the Beast God and Beast Emperor. Perhaps it would be the guardian in the future.
"For you." The little fellow looked at the Spiritual Fire in a daze. In the end, it chose to give it to Wutian.
Wutian didn't reject it. He understood how the little fellow was feeling. It had spent many months with the Beast God and Beast God and had built a deep relationship. Now that the Beast God had passed away, the things he left behind would only remind it of the Beast God. It was better to give it to someone else.
After receiving the Spiritual Fire, Wutian bit his finger. A drop of blood rolled on it and quickly seeped into it. Then, with a thought, the Spiritual Fire disappeared and appeared in his Sea of Qi.
The Spiritual Fire floated in the middle of his Sea of Qi like an emperor. Wisps of flames rose and Profound Qi flowed below. There was a faint fiery red color in the silver foil.
At this moment, Wutian could feel a warmth in his Profound Qi. It seeped into his body and tempered every cell. His body continued to grow stronger and his strength increased bit by bit!
The Spiritual Fire was the crystallization of the Beast God and Beast Emperor's life. It had great power. Although it didn't have the highest temperature, its effect was not inferior to the Astral Fire Origin.
What kind of feeling was this?
After dripping his blood on it, Wutian could faintly feel the complicated emotions in the Spiritual Fire. Regret, unwillingness, sadness, and despair …
Shen Feng and the others were extremely envious. That was the Beast God's Heart Flame, and it was extremely beneficial to one's cultivation. It could be said that with this item, one's cultivation speed would be more than two times faster than usual. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a divine item.
They were very envious, but they didn't dare to covet it, much less fight over it. That was because this was something that belonged to the Beast God and the Beast Emperor. They couldn't tolerate the slightest bit of blasphemy. That would be a great disrespect.
Moreover, Yan Yangzi alone wasn't someone they could deal with. Now, there was another small fierce beast.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, two silhouettes shot out from the two caves on the Beast King Mountain, floating in midair.
"Greetings, Master, Great Elder, Beast King!"
Shen Feng and the other two, including Luo Shenzi and Han Tian, simultaneously knelt on one knee and said respectfully.
"Greetings, Master. Greetings, Senior Beast King."
Wutian and the little one did not kneel down, but brought their fists together and said.
"That's right. Seven people have passed the training this time, five more than last time."
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man. His voice was deep and powerful, and carried an irresistible majesty.
This person was the Yan Sect's Sect Master — Yan Zhen!
He was wearing a loose purple robe. His seven feet height wasn't considered tall, but the aura that he naturally emitted was enough to make tens of thousands of people revere him.
This was the aura of a superior person, the majesty of a king that no one could provoke!
Especially those eyes, which were filled with wisdom and sharpness, as if they could see through one's heart. There were no secrets to speak of.
Beside him was an old man. It was the Great Elder!
Yan Zhen said, "Chu Yiyan, you didn't disappoint the Sect. You have completed the training once again. From now on, you are the first choice for the next Sect Master."
"Many thanks, Master."
Shen Feng and the others were extremely shocked. However, as the person involved, Luo Shenzi was extremely calm, as though she did not care about this supreme position.
As though he was satisfied with Luo Shenzi's current performance, Yan Zhen nodded and looked down at Shen Feng and the other two. "You guys did well too. Although you were a little opportunistic, it wasn't easy for you to make it all the way here and stand out from hundreds of disciples. Today, I will officially confer you guys as titular disciples."
"Shen Feng, your title is Huo Luanzi. You will occupy the third cave abode!"
"Fang Lanxian, your title is Lan Huazi. You will occupy the fourth cave abode!"
"Xue Yifeng, your title is Xue Fengzi. You will occupy the fifth cave abode!"
"Many thanks … Master!"
The three of them were so excited that they could not even speak properly. Titular disciples were above tens of thousands of disciples and possessed a transcendent status. In the past, they could only look up to them with envy. But now, they were finally standing in that position.
"Go to Elder Wan to exchange your identity badges." After Yan Zhen finished speaking, he waved his hand gently. In a flash of light, the three of them disappeared. The next moment, they appeared in the transaction pavilion in the sect!
At the same time, a dignified voice sounded in the sky above the Yan Sect. It was not very loud, but it was clearly transmitted into everyone's mind. Even the disciples who were carrying out missions outside heard the same voice in their minds.
Instantly, there was an uproar!
"Senior Brother Shen Feng, Senior Sister Fang Lanxian, and Senior Sister Xue Yifeng have all become titular disciples!"
"Big news, this is definitely big news. Last time, only Senior Sister Luo Shenzi and Senior Brother Fire Cicadas completed the endless training. But this time, there are three of them!"
Countless people rushed to the transaction pavilion to congratulate them. However, when Shen Feng said that there were still a few people who passed the training this time, the Yan Sect was completely in an uproar.
"Senior Sister Luo Shenzi has become the first candidate to be the next Sect Master. Senior Brother Yan Yangzi won't be the first candidate to be the next Great Elder, right? And Senior Brother Han Tian has the Sacred Body of the Five Elements. This is unbelievable. This is too shocking."
"What about Senior Brother Fire Cicadas?" Someone asked.
Shen Feng and the other two did not answer. They exchanged their identity badges and quickly left.
They did not know what happened to Fire Cicadas, so they did not dare to speak carelessly.
Beast King Mountain.
Yan Zhen looked at Wutian and the little one, then looked at Han Tian. A smile appeared on his face. "You're finally willing to awaken the Sacred Body of the Five Elements?"
"This …"
Han Tian scratched his head. "Didn't you say that the foundation must be deep, thick, and firm? Only then will I achieve more in the future. So, I've been working hard to build the foundation. How is it? I'm very obedient, right?"
Huo Zhen shook his head. At this moment, he did not look like a Sect Master. He looked more like a father who loves his child.
"I'm not asking you to work hard to build the foundation. I'm asking you to stabilize your foundation. Child, you only know how to talk nonsense. If you had awakened the Sacred Body of the Five Elements earlier, you might have already had your own title."
"What? Then wouldn't I be at a disadvantage? " Han Tian was so angry that he stomped his feet. "No, old bastard. You have to compensate me. Compensate me for my loss over the years and my hurt heart. Otherwise, this handsome brother will suppress you for ten thousand years."
He spoke arrogantly. Wutian was unable to do anything to Yan Zhen, but Yan Zhen did not get angry. Instead, he had a smile on his face.
Yan Zhen looked at the Great Elder and said helplessly, "What do you think of being the Saint Son?"
"Saint Son?" Han Tian curled his lips and asked for an exorbitant price. "Saint Son is barely enough. However, it's still not enough to compensate for my hurt heart. If you give me another ten thousand essences, I might be able to recover a little."
Yan Zhen did not pay any more attention to him. He looked at Wutian and the little fellow with deep admiration in his eyes. "Wutian, this Sect Master would like to thank you. If it wasn't for your protection, I'm afraid that only two people would be able to complete the training."
Hearing this, Luo Shenzi was very calm. It seemed that she already knew Wutian's true identity.
"Sect Master is too polite. This is what I should do."
Wutian glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. Seeing that she did not seem surprised, he frowned. However, after thinking about it, if the Fire Cicadas knew his identity, then Luo Shenzi, who had the same status as him, should also know. It was just that she did not say it out loud.
"Not arrogant and not rash. It's not bad to have such a temperament!" Yan Zhen said, "You and the Vitality Swallowing Frog are the Great Elder's disciples. This Sect Master will not ask about the rewards for the training. Let the Great Elder give it to you personally."
"Understood!" Wutian asked doubtfully, "Sect Master, Master, may I ask, how are you going to deal with the Fire Cicadas, Zhang Jian?"
Yan Zhen said in a deep voice, "Zhang Jian tried to kill a fellow disciple. His crime is unforgivable. From today onwards, he will be expelled from the Sect and issued a warrant for his arrest. He will also be wanted by the Tides. Anyone who sees him will be killed without mercy!"
"Is there no room for negotiation?" Wutian asked.
"The sect's rules are the sect's rules. If it's true that you killed twelve direct disciples, I won't care about our relationship as master and disciple. I won't be merciful." At that moment, the great elder's voice was sonorous and full of killing intent.
Then, the Great Elder's tone softened, "Wutian, you have contributed greatly this time. I will keep my promise. When we return to the Sect, I will teach you the Art of Restriction. However, your training is not over yet. You still have to go through the last stage."
"The last stage?"
Wutian, Han Tian, and the little fellow were all stunned. They did not understand.
"Originally, there wasn't. However, the Beast God and the Beast God suddenly passed away …"
At this point, the Great Elder stopped. His old face was filled with sorrow and his voice became extremely hoarse, "I believe that all of you know that the Yan Sect was able to stand tall in the Scarlet Flame Mountain Range because of the deterrence of the two Guardian Gods. Now that they have suddenly passed away, I believe that the news will spread very quickly. When our enemies find us, the Yan Sect will be in danger of being destroyed!"
Yan Zhen said in a low voice, "For the Yan Sect, Ancestor Kong Lingzi put in a lot of effort and contributed his entire life. In addition to the efforts of countless elders, the Yan Sect was able to achieve its current glorious status. However, at the same time, we have made many strong enemies. Some of them are from the same Sect as the Yan Sect, and some are even stronger than the Yan Sect.
Now that the Beast God and Beast King have passed away, they will definitely take action after receiving the news. When that happens, the Sect will be in danger!
Therefore, in order to prevent the efforts of the Ancestor and the elders from being destroyed, the Great Elder and I have decided to let all of you receive the Ancestor's inheritance so that the Yan Sect can continue to burn. Even if the Yan Sect is destroyed one day, as long as the inheritance remains, there is still hope for the Yan Sect to rise again on this mainland! "
"What? The Ancestor is not dead yet? "Han Tian exclaimed.
The Great Elder said in a hoarse voice, "The Ancestor died five hundred years ago. However, he seemed to have predicted that the Sect would face a great calamity five hundred years later. Therefore, before he died, he left behind his inheritance just for this moment!"
