Chapter 639: Chapter 334: Taiyuan Line, Thousands of Clouds in the Suzaku Palace_2
“This is a small world detached from the Big World, where there is a deeper suppression of power. With your current strength, you can barely manage to fly here.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun’s divine power circulated within his body, but the burst of force was extremely weak, not even capable of causing spatial fluctuations.
The space of the Desolate Origin World seemed like an ocean, where a slight movement could stir up powerful waves.
On the other hand, the inner domain of the Green Flame Palace seemed like a huge Profound Stone mountain that couldn’t be shaken at all.
“Is this the Small World detached from the Big World? The restriction of space is too strong.” Lu Yun sighed secretly, as his consciousness slowly spread out.
In this Small World, even when he put all his efforts into mobilizing his consciousness, it could only cover an area of ten zhang.
After Heng Chong Dominator spoke, he looked into the distance and took out a golden token from his robe.
Instantly, the array marks circulated, and the world changed again.
This was a continuous mountain range with palaces situated atop it, and a terrifying aura emanated from them.
As soon as Heng Chong Dominator led Lu Yun and the others into this mountain range, someone suddenly appeared.
“Uncle Heng Chong.”
A middle-aged man dressed in black robes greeted respectfully upon seeing the arrivals.
“I’ll be responsible for assessing the Entry Level trials of these youngsters. From now on, they belong to my Taiyuan First Vein. Make the necessary arrangements.”
After giving his order, Heng Chong Dominator turned into a lingering shadow and disappeared.
“Yes!” The black-robed middle-aged man responded to the empty air and, seeing that there was no response after a while, he turned his gaze to Lu Yun and the others.
“Since you have just become official disciples, according to the rules, you are considered ordinary disciples if you haven’t been taken under the wings of a World Master or an Immortal Expert.”
The black-robed middle-aged man was also very puzzled. These were just ordinary disciples, and any Unity Realm or True Spirit Realm disciple could have led them. He didn’t understand why he had to make an appearance.
Despite his thoughts, he didn’t forget Uncle Heng Chong’s order and, with a faint smile on his face, waved his sleeve towards Lu Yun and the others: “Now, follow me!”
The black-robed middle-aged man turned around and walked away with large strides, and Lu Yun and the others followed.
It seemed that this black-robed middle-aged man held quite a high rank within Taiyuan First Vein, as many people they met along the way treated him with great respect.
Soon, Lu Yun and the others completed all the Entry Level procedures for becoming official disciples.
Becoming an official disciple of the Taiyuan First Vein of the Green Flame Palace, they received a Prime Origin Token, indicating their status as Taiyuan First Vein disciples.
In addition to that, they also received two sets of ordinary Taiyuan disciple uniforms and a copy of the Greenfire Palace Overview.
The uniforms and the Prime Origin Token were both green in color, representing the status of ordinary disciples, which they didn’t need to wear daily but only on important occasions.
For example, during World Master promotion ceremonies and Sect celebrations.
At other times, they could wear any style or type of clothing they liked.
As for the Greenfire Palace Overview, it recorded relevant information about the Green Flame Palace and what official disciples needed to know.
After receiving these basic items, it was time to arrange their residences.
The Taiyuan First Vein was divided into five areas: east, west, south, north, and center.
The eastern, western, southern, and northern areas were where ordinary disciples, elite disciples, core disciples, and True Inheritance Disciples lived, respectively.
The central area was a public zone for entertainment, imparting divine abilities and secret techniques, fighting competitions, etc. It was open to everyone from ordinary disciples to True Inheritance Disciples.
As the most ordinary official disciples, Lu Yun and the others lived in the East District.
The four of them shared a building, which was fully equipped with specialized Cultivation Rooms and bedrooms.
Among the four people living in the same building as Lu Yun, he knew one of them—Yuan Fei, who had greeted him before.
The other two were Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang, both of whom were at the Heavenly Human Realm, First Layer.
The rest of the people lived not far from them, with the nearest being just a few dozen zhang away.
After entering his room, Lu Yun took out the Greenfire Palace Overview and began reading.
The black-robed middle-aged man had personally instructed them to read and familiarize themselves with the content right away. Otherwise, if they violated anything, they would have to bear the consequences of the punishment.
The first thing on the Greenfire Palace Overview was a detailed description of the Green Flame Palace, including its history and the division of its seven veins.
The Green Flame Palace was founded by a powerful Immortal Expert a million years ago, and among its disciples, nine of them had ascended to Immortal Expert status.
Later, after tens of thousands of years, two of the nine Immortal Expert disciples’ lineages had gradually declined due to the lack of outstanding disciples and grandchildren.
Meanwhile, the other seven immortal factions continued to grow and expand. Immortal disciples would emerge amongst their descendants, resulting in the eventual formation of Green Flame Palace’s seven branches.
These seven branches were identified as Positive Yang, Connecting Heaven, Long Wind, Green Profound, Falling Cloud, Jade Clear, and Tai Yuan.
Connecting Heaven and Tai Yuan were the strongest of these branches, each having two immortals supporting them.
In terms of overall power, the Connecting Heaven branch was even stronger, as the current Green Flame Palace Master hailed from this particular branch.
The remaining six branches each had one immortal supporting them, and the overall strength of these branches was not significantly different from one another.
For a faction to be considered top-tier, all it needed was one immortal expert to emerge out of its ranks.
Each of the seven branches of Green Flame Palace could stand on par with other top-tier factions.
It was evident that the strength of Green Flame Palace was immense, even among the super factions, and they were regarded as being at the very top.
Of course, if Green Flame Palace didn’t possess such formidable power, they wouldn’t be able to monopolize the entire Green Flame Domain.
Besides that, there were also descriptions about sect rules.
Members were forbidden from betraying the sect, slaughtering their fellow disciples, or entering Small Worlds without permission…
With only “Twelve Forbidden Acts” in place, Green Flame Palace’s rules were relatively simple, and Lu Yun had already memorized them after only one read-through.
The Greenfire Palace Overview also briefly explained that ordinary disciples wanting to advance to elite disciples had to reach the Unity Realm.
Core disciples needed to reach the True Spirit Realm.
As for True Inheritance Disciples, they had to enter the Saint Realm.
True Inheritance Disciples were the real core and Direct Successors of Green Flame Palace, having the potential to become World Masters.
That said, even reaching the status of a core disciple was still far away for Lu Yun. After reading through the content once, he continued to flip through the pages.
“Profound Sky Wall?”
The Profound Sky Wall was a sacred cultivation site believed to have been imbued with the rules and inscriptions left by a powerful Tai Yuan expert.
Year-round cultivation under the Profound Sky Wall made comprehending the rules easier.
Moreover, cultivating here was free, and every disciple had one month of access per year without incurring any cost.
Lu Yun secretly made a mental note of this location, intending to cultivate there once he broke through to the Heavenly Human Realm.
For now, he was only in the late Golden Core Realm, and his priority was to condense his Nascent Soul, open up his Cave Heavens, and advance to the Heavenly Human Realm.
Since he had already completed his consciousness transformation using the Divine Grinding Visualization Technique, Lu Yun’s determination and will had both increased significantly. With his Martial Arts Will reaching Perfection, he was ready to complete his Nascent Soul transformation at any moment.
The only thing he lacked now was the proper realm.
Before long, Lu Yun finished browsing through the Greenfire Palace Overview. Using his photographic memory, he memorized everything and gained an initial understanding of the Green Flame Palace.
At the same time, he felt a weight lifted from his chest.
Green Flame Palace was powerful enough to protect him and fend off any potential threats. Whenever he ventured outside for training in the future, he wouldn’t have to worry about any revenge plots targeting him or his loved ones.
After that, Lu Yun cast aside all distractions and entered the cultivation state.
…
Above the Green Flame Domain, a giant fiery red bird pulled a magnificent battle chariot, flapping its wings to soar through the void, leaving a stunning trail of flames in its wake.
This spectacle immediately caught the attention of many powerful cultivators.
“Hey, that chariot has a Vermilion Bird totem on it. It seems like it’s from the Four Images Holy Land.”
“That’s right. Rumor has it that the Four Images Holy Land has four palaces: Azure Dragon, Black Tortoise, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger. With the Vermilion Bird pulling the chariot, could it be Wan Suyun, the palace master of the famous Vermilion Bird Palace in the Black-yellow Great World?”
“Judging by the direction it’s heading, it’s going towards the Green Flame Palace!”
As the chariot streaked across the void, many powerful cultivators began discussing it.
Shortly after, the Vermilion Bird Chariot came to a stop above the outer domain of the Green Flame Palace.
The curtain of the chariot was lifted, revealing a tall woman with long legs dressed in a fiery red palace gown. A mysterious veil covered her face, and her bright, crystalline eyes gazed towards the depths of Green Flame Palace.
This woman was none other than Wan Suyun.
“Wan Suyun of the Four Images Holy Land has come to pay a visit!”
As Wan Suyun’s lips moved slightly, a cold voice rang out, reaching the depths of the Green Flame Palace.
