Chapter 721 - 643: The Phoenix Sings in the Abyss
There is a branch vein here, abundant with Fire Spiritual Power, approximately Tier Two Upper Grade.
Sufficient for Shen Xuan to cultivate Fire Technique to Foundation Establishment Perfection.
Outside, he set up a Reverse Five Elements Wind and Thunder Killing Array.
This is a Tier Two Upper Grade Array.
A Foundation Establishment Cultivator trapped in this array would find it difficult to escape.
The Cave Mansion is divided into two layers, inner and outer.
The outer layer is where Yang Huofeng and her adoptive father Yang Yunfan live.
Yang Yunfan finally enjoys the blessings of old age.
Having mingled in Yueyun Immortal City and Flame Orchid for years, he is familiar with the nearby powers and well-known cultivators.
Shen Xuan, considering Yang Huofeng, took in Yang Yunfan as the cave steward, responsible for purchasing, welcoming guests, and other trivial matters.
Yang Yunfan is endlessly grateful for this.
Although he doesn’t know Shen Xuan’s true identity.
When Shen Xuan broke Yang Huofeng’s hidden restriction, passed on teachings from the master, he was actually his daughter’s master.
After years at the bottom among loose cultivators, he has at least some discernment and social grace.
Repeatedly instructing his daughter, Yang Huofeng, to treat her master with respect, obey and not become arrogant with favor.
Within the inner layer of the cave, Shen Xuan lives alone, setting up multiple illusion arrays.
Even if a Core Formation cultivator doesn’t understand the array dao, it’s very hard to breach.
Yang Huofeng doesn’t possess the token to enter the array.
As for modifying the cave, planting spirit plants, etc., Shen Xuan plans to delegate entirely to Yang Huofeng.
The intent is clear.
In the future, this cave is a gift for her.
In some places with thick Spiritual Qi, open spirit fields and plant spirit plants.
Not only can they purify Spiritual Qi and refresh cultivators.
In the future, they can also be sold for Spirit Stones, providing a modest extra income.
The entire cave is inhabited only by Shen Xuan, Yang Huofeng, and Yang Yunfan.
Shen Xuan chose the cave’s mountain, named Chixia Peak.
The mountain is not high, but abundant in Spiritual Qi, with a reddish hue, an external sign of overflowing Fire Spirit Qi.
Shen Xuan brought Yang Huofeng and Yang Yunfan to the newly opened cave.
"Huofeng, this is a Tier Two Upper Grade cave. The internal space of the cave is quite large, divided into inner and outer layers. You won’t deal with the inner layer. Plan well for the outer layer, establishing a medicinal garden, planting fire attribute spirit plants. If you have any questions, ask your father often."
Shen Xuan smiled and said, "In the future, you will be residing here, cultivating."
Upon hearing this, Yang Huofeng understood Shen Xuan’s intention and expressed gratitude.
"Yes, senior brother. Huofeng understands."
Though she seems straightforward, she is actually extraordinarily intelligent.
This "senior brother" is indeed a Golden Core True Master, how could he truly value this mere Tier Two cave.
After True Master Profound Ice chose disciples on behalf of True Master Primordial Fire, he lingered for several years before returning to Song Country’s Starlight Island.
This new cave is clearly her bestowed domain.
Thinking of this, a burst of excitement and gratitude arose in Yang Huofeng’s heart.
She never dared to dream of having an independent Tier Two Upper Grade Spirit Vein Cave, being only an Early Stage of Qi Cultivation sect servant.
Throughout Flame Island, only Master Ming Shen, and senior brother Zhongsuming and senior sister Zeng Yuyuan, in Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, enjoy such treatment.
In the days following, Yang Huofeng, with her adoptive father Yang Yunfan’s assistance, enthusiastically renovated the new cave.
Shen Xuan bestowed upon her a thousand Spirit Stones, an enormous sum for the impoverished father and daughter.
Yang Huofeng’s previous destitution vanishes, her demeanor radiant, with a touch of "wealthy and bold".
She meticulously selects various fire attribute spiritual materials and directs dozens of servant disciples on the island to work vigorously.
At the cave entrance, she ordered the carving of a phoenix spreading its wings, with red flame stones set in the wings, shining under the sun.
On either side of the passage, Flame Orchid and Core Lotus liking fire spirit plants are transplanted, with flowers blooming year-round, emitting light Fire Spirit Qi.
The main hall’s floor is paved with warm Yang Jade, the dome inset with firefly crystals, with light flowing at night, dreamy and magical.
She even diverted earth fire streams to open a hot spring medicinal bath, where the water is misted with Spiritual Qi and herbal fragrance.
The entire cave is transformed into splendid magnificence.
Wherever she looks is a warm, intense fiery red, accented with gold and orange, as if walking in an eternally burning, warm and peaceful Immortal Realm of flames.
These prosperous days czusing Yang Huofeng great joy.
Yet, she keenly notices that the servant disciples who used to joke and address her kindly now become restrained and respectful.
No one dares address her by name, all have changed to call her "Yang Senior Sister".
News has already spread that Yang Huofeng has become a True Master’s Direct Disciple, her status matched with Zhongsuming and Zeng Yuyuan.
Her adoptive father Yang Yunfan, consequently, rises from being slightly looked down upon as "Old Yang" to being respectfully called "Steward Yang".
Yang Yunfan is the steward of the new cave, deserving the title of Steward Yang.
Yang Huofeng spoke little, remaining amiable to everyone.
Deep down, she also understood, she is now separated from this class.
She and these sect servants have distinctly different identity and status, making equal interactions difficult.
Three months then, the renovation of the new cave was completed.
Yang Huofeng is extremely satisfied with this heart-invested new cave.
Excluding the interior layer of the cave, everything else was arranged and decorated according to her desire.
"This is my new home!"
Yang Huofeng stood at the cave entrance, looking at the fiery splendid scene in front, her heart filled with happiness.
Having renowned masters, possessing the long-dreamed cave, and living with her diligently bearing father—these good things she once never dared to dream.
By day, she directs servants, planning the cave.
