Chapter 96 — Chapter 96 Vermilion Phoenix Dominating the Heavens

’This is amazing! We’re flying at a speed ten times more than what the flying sword can achieve!’ Yuan was filled with excitement as they soared through the air faster than even what most fighter jets in his world could achieve.

"If the Young Master thinks this is fast, just wait until I recover my phoenix form and powers. It’ll be like comparing a slow walk to a sprint! 100,000 miles? I can even travel 1,000,000 miles in the blink of an eye!" Feng Yuxiang noticed Yuan’s excitement and took this chance to brag a little to improve his impression of her.

"A million miles in the blink of an eye? How could anything possibly travel that fast?" Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice, as he cannot even begin to imagine traveling at such a ridiculous speed.

"It all depends on your movement techniques, Young Master. There are extremely profound movement techniques out there that can allow Cultivators to travel from star to star with a single step— it’s not something even I can comprehend."

"Movement techniques, huh? Speaking of them, I don’t have any movement techniques— only martial techniques." Yuan just realized this.

"What? The Young Master doesn’t have a movement technique? That’s outrageous!" Feng Yuxiang exclaimed in a shocked voice.

"Huh? Are movement techniques that important?" Yuan raised his eyebrows after seeing her surprised expression.

"Of course! Young Master, movement techniques are as important as martial techniques if not even more important! When you fight with an enemy, how you move to strike and how you move to dodge or defend is extremely important, or you will be no different than a sitting duck on the battlefield!" Feng Yuxiang said to him.

And she continued, "If the Young Master does not have a movement technique, I can provide you with my movement technique! Although it’s meant for phoenixes, it can still be used in the human form."

"Really?" Yuan looked at her with flickering eyes, clearly excited for this movement technique.

"Of course."

Feng Yuxiang then turned to look at Xiao Hua and spoke to her, "Senior, you won’t mind me giving the Young Master a movement technique, right?"

Because Feng Yuxiang didn’t want to be disrespectful to Xiao Hua, who might be teaching Yuan as a teacher, she must ask for permission before teaching Yuan anything, as that is proper equities in the cultivation world, and trying to steal disciples from another is greatly frowned upon.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Hua nodded, "The more Brother Yuan learns the better. Xiao Hua does not have a good movement technique that is befitting of Brother Yuan’s talent, so you can give one to him."

Since she was not Yuan’s Master, she didn’t mind other people teaching Yuan— as long as what they are teaching is not complete trash and worthless.

"Thank you, Senior! I will try my best teaching the Young Master!" Feng Yuxiang said to her.

Sometime later, after spending a few hours in the air, Feng Yuxiang suddenly stopped.

She then pointed in front of them with her head and said, "This place must be the Dragon Essence Temple. I can sense a profound presence coming from that place."

Yuan turned to look in the direction Feng Yuxiang was looking at to see a massive place that looked like a city but with a lot more buildings.

"So that’s the Dragon Essence Temple, huh? It’s so much larger compared to the Flying Sword Sect."

"I don’t know a Flying Sword Sect, but the Dragon Essence Temple is one of the most powerful factions in the Lower Heavens only beaten by a few places and the Heaven and Earth Palace." Feng Yuxiang said.

Yuan nodded and said, "Anyway, the examination won’t start for a few more days so let’s spend some time practicing this movement technique."

"Okay, let me find a suitable place."

Feng Yuxiang proceeded to fly around the area until they found this empty land and descended there.

"This looks like the perfect place to practice my movement technique," Feng Yuxiang said as she placed Yuan back down.

Sometime later, Feng Yuxiang said, "Since this is something I learned naturally as the Vermilion Phoenix, I don’t have it written on a scroll, so the Young Master will have to try and learn it from watching my movements. Although it might take you much longer to understand the technique this way than to read the technique straight from a book or scroll, at least you get to witness it being executed before your eyes. Of course, it could also benefit you if you are someone who learns better from watching than reading."

"Also, because this movement technique is not really meant for humans, it might take the Young Master longer to learn it. However, I believe in the Young Master. If you work hard enough, you should be able to use this technique in a few years."

"A few years?!" Yuan looked at her with wide eyes.

Feng Yuxiang misunderstood Yuan’s type of surprise and said with a smile on her face, "I know a few years might sound a little too fast for a movement technique, but trust me, Young Master, I will do my best to teach you!"

However, Xiao Hua opened her mouth to speak afterward, "Your logic does not apply to Brother Yuan, Vermilion Phoenix. If you underestimate Brother Yuan, you’ll be in a world of surprise."

"Huh?" Feng Yuxiang could not comprehend Xiao Hua’s words and tilted her head in a puzzled manner. However, that was to be expected, since Feng Yuxiang is unaware of Yuan’s heaven-defying comprehension abilities that allow him to learn even Divine-grade abilities in a few hours.

And before Xiao Hua could even explain, Yuan opened his mouth to speak, "Feng Feng, can you show me the movement technique?"

"R-Right away, Young Master!" Feng Yuxiang nodded, and she walked until she was many meters away from them.

"Watch closely, Young Master! I will try to do this as slowly as possible, but it might still be a bit fast!" Feng Yuxiang took a deep breath.

And then she began moving her legs and feet in a unique but rhythmic manner.

"This is a movement technique?" Yuan raised his eyebrows when he saw Feng Yuxiang’s movement techniques, as it made no sense to him.

A few minutes later, Feng Yuxiang stopped and asked him, "What do you think, Young Master?"

"Uhhh... I don’t think I understand it..." Yuan responded, and he continued, "How is that going to help you dodge your opponents during a battle? You are just moving around in a small area."

Feng Yuxiang pondered for a moment before speaking, "Young Master, why don’t you try attacking me?"

"Huh? Are you sure?"

Feng Yuxiang nodded and said, "Yes."

"Okay..." Yuan retrieved his Spirit Sword and approached Feng Yuxiang.

"Young Master, you can attack me whenever you are ready. You also don’t need to hold back." Feng Yuxiang said to him a moment later.

After taking a deep breath, Yuan said, "Here I come!"

Yuan began attacking Feng Yuxiang without any real sword techniques.

"Eh?"

However, Yuan quickly realized that no matter how much he tried to hit Feng Yuxiang, she would narrowly dodge all of his attacks.

"This is only the basics, Young Master. Let me show you what this movement technique can achieve with a high mastery level..."

Feng Yuxiang said to him before her fiery wings returned.

She then took a step towards Yuan before disappearing from his view, almost like a ghost.

"What do you think, Young Master?"

Feng Yuxiang’s voice suddenly resounded from every direction around Yuan, causing him to look around. However, no matter which direction he looked in, Feng Yuxiang was there. In fact, there were over a dozen Feng Yuxiang casually standing around him right now, almost like her body had multiplied.

"What the? This is a movement technique? Are you sure you didn’t clone your body instead?" Yuan said with a dumbfounded expression.

Feng Yuxiang suddenly stopped moving, and a second later, her clones disappeared.

"I am just moving so fast that you are seeing a dozen of me," Feng Yuxiang said.

"So as long as I learn this movement technique, my opponents won’t be able to hit me?" Yuan asked her afterward.

"That’s correct. Unless they know your movement technique or can guess where you are going to move next, it’s going to be extremely difficult for them to even graze you, much less land an accurate strike on you. And even if they somehow know your movements, they still need to be fast enough to hit you. As long as you are within the Lower Heavens, you will be untouchable with this movement technique."

"Untouchable..." Yuan mumbled in a low voice.

"By the way, this technique is called ’Vermilion Phoenix Dominating the Heavens’. I named it myself," Feng Yuxiang said with a prideful expression on her face.

"Vermilion Phoenix Dominating the Heavens? What an arrogant name for a movement technique..." Xiao Hua was speechless by Feng Yuxiang’s shamelessness to give the movement technique such a grand name.

Sometime later, Yuan said to Feng Yuxiang, "Feng Feng, can you show me the movement technique a few more times? I have already memorized all of the movements, but I still need to understand its essence."

"Eh? You have already memorized the movements?" Feng Yuxiang looked at him with a dazed face.

There are over a thousand movements for the movement technique! How can someone at the Spirit Warrior level memorize that many movements in such a short time? That was simply unbelievable!
