The Ancient Rare Phoenix: Colourful Flames - Chapter 33
Next morning
Hou woke up and found himself sleeping on his bed. When he looked around and then saw Lily standing beside his bed while waiting for him to wake up.
He then remembered what happen and carefully stared at Lily because he felt her very appealing and closeness toward him. He asked her what happen yesterday before getting a shocking reply. Never once had he thought he could get himself a life and death contract servant who will do anything for him. He intensely looked while circling around her before happily hopping onto her.
After a while Hou and Lily headed toward the clan library.
When he entered the library, he saw grandpa Zong, Patriarch Fu and rest of the grand elders waiting for him at the 1st floor in front the counter. He sincerely greeted grandpa Zong and Patriarch Fu however he arrogantly glanced at rest of the grand elders which made them feel very angry and awkward.
Grandpa Zong warmly smiled at him before throwing him a old scroll and said.
” Hou, This scroll is for you for having awaken your attribute. It is our clan most precious and valued Breathing technique for the cultivation meditation. It is called Rhythm Heart Breathing Technique: High Rank 5 Heavenly Mortal Grade Skill which was left behind by our ancestor for the most youngest talented and geniuses in the clan. ”
Hou was pleasantly surprised by this gift and immediately hide it inside his sleeves before thanking grandpa Zong.
Finally grandpa sternly looked at him and said.
” From now on you’ll come here and practise that skill everyday at the top of floor till you completely master it. ”
” While you’re at it, all the grand elders will be teaching you in the each floor. Work hard Hou, I know you’ll make us very proud of you. ”
Saying that grandpa Zong and Patriarch Fu quickly left, leaving speechless Hou staring at their back.
Hou glared at those grand elders and arrogantly warned them.
” Old geezer, You better be teaching me something useful or I’ll beat the shit of you! ”
Those grand elders angrily stared at him before going up next floor without caring about him. Only one of the grand elder was left and that was grand elder Li who was suppose to stay at the counter.
Hou looked at grand elder Li who was standing alone in front the counter. He shook his head and also left for next floor. While Lily followed behind him, grand elder Li sighed in relief.
When Hou and Lily entered in the 2nd floor, At the end of corner one of the grand elder waiting for them. He looked very old, much older than grandpa Zong, his hair were already white, was wearing navy-blue coloured cloak along with Liu insignia on his chest. He was taking out books from the shelves.
When he saw them entered, He forcibly smiled before gesturing Hou to sit down in front of him.
Hou loftily sat down and stared at him.
The grand elder introduced himself before talking about what he was gonna teach him here.
” Little brat, From now on when you’re here, you will address me as grand elder Ru. As for what I am going to teach here, I’ll start explaining all about the geography of our Realm Plane so you’ll know where you are if you found yourself there. ”
” Our Realm plane is divided into 6 different zone. ”
” 1. Dragon Lair Zone: Our Empire is actually located here where we stand now. It is surrounded by all the zones. 1600 years ago the inner part of this zone was know as Dragon Lair Zone and was most dangerous zone but after Monarch Zhu defeated the Blue Dragon King and established the Ice Empire, merging with outer part completely then called as Dragon Lair Zone.”
” 2. Forbidden Northern Zone: It is located at North of Dragon Lair Zone. It is the most dangerous and the largest zone out of the 6 zones as the climate of the zone is very unstable there, filled with Ice mountain. One of the reason for it, due to emerge of the Ice fire and the extreme Ice Qi inside the lake around the centre of the zone. Only the most high grade Realm Spirit beasts and Spirit plants & trees and inhabits there due to it, most cultivator filled with greed goes there for rare natural resources however no one has successfully come out from there. While the outer part could be considered as safe zone, still only 4 out of 10 could come out alive. ”
” 3. Green Forest Northern Zone: This zone is the most smallest zone out of all and also the most prosperous filled with all kinds of natural resources, spirit beasts and plants/trees. As the name says it is densely filled with forest. It is located at east of Dragon Lair Zone. As you know this zone is owned by the Rain Forest Academy. ”
” 4. Forbidden Sea Zone: It is divided into 3 section like a chopped fish, head part is located at east of the Dragon Lair Zone, body part is located in the middle bordering Dragon Lair Zone and Forbidden Northern Zone, last tail part is located between Forbidden Northern Zone and Green Forest Zone. This part is only filled with the sea and the high Realm sea beasts. Not even the most experienced sailor dares to sail there even with high Realm Cultivator. ”
” 5. Forbidden Sky Land Zone: It is located at the south of Dragon Lair Zone and also the 2nd smallest zone out of all, filled with different kind of highest mountains. Many big sects like Sky Sword Sect are located there due to highly dense heavenly Qi surrounding around the mountain.
” 6. Forbidden Blood Zone: It is located between Dragon Lair Zone and Forbidden Sky Land Zone and the 2nd largest zone. This zone is actually the den of the spirit beasts. Some say there are even few Sage Mortal Realm spirit beasts living there. Every year the Supreme Sect Gathering Summit is held at the outer part of this zone. ”
After Hou finished listening, he directly moved to next floor without saying a word to the grand elder Ru, leaving him totally speechless.
Obviously Hou wouldn’t listen to something boring to him.
At the 3rd floor of the clan library,
In the corner of the hall was a tall old-man wearing grey-coloured cloak and waiting for hou.
Once Hou entered the hall, like grand elder Ru, he also gestured him to sit before explaining him without letting him speak as he knew his mouth was only filled with filth.
” Little Hou, I am grand elder Xuan, Starting today I’ll be teaching you all about grade. ”
” First We’ll talk about alchemy pill and alchemist grade. ”
” Alchemist and alchemy pill are both graded into 3 grades. ”
” 1. Origin Mortal Grade,”
” 2. Heavenly Mortal Grade”
” 3. Unrivaled Mortal Grade ”
” Then those grades are again divided into stages as such Low, Mid and High . ”
” Those stages are again divided into rank from 1-10 ”
Grand Elder Xuan looked at Hou who digesting the information slowly so he wait for a while before continuing.
” Likewise blacksmith, formation master and talisman master and their Items, natural resources, spirit plants and fruits are also grade same way. ”
” 1. Origin Mortal Grade,”
” 2. Heavenly Mortal Grade”
” 3. Unparalleled Mortal Grade ”
” Then those grades are again divided into stages as such Low, Mid and High . ”
” Those stages are again divided into rank from 1-10 ”
” As for—-
Suddenly Hou stood up and quickly disappeared from the spot, also leaving the grand elder Xuan’s mouth and eyes wide open.
