Online Cultivator

Vermilion Phoenix

'This is awesome! We flew at a speed ten times more than what a flying sword could achieve!' Yusri is filled with excitement as they soar through the air faster than most fighter jets in his world can achieve.

"If Young Master thinks this is fast, just wait until I recover my phoenix form and strength. It would be like comparing a slow road with a sprint! 100,000 miles? I can even travel 1,000,000 miles in the blink of an eye!" Feli noticed Yusri's excitement and took this opportunity to brag a bit to increase his impression of her.

"A million miles in the blink of an eye? How could anything travel that fast?" Yusri muttered in a daze, as he could not even begin to imagine traveling at such a ridiculous speed.

"That all depends on your movement technique, Young Master. There is a very profound movement technique out there that can allow Cultivators to travel from star to star with a single step—it is not something that even I can understand."

"Mobile engineering, huh? Speaking of them, I don't have any movement technique—just a martial technique." Yusri just realized this.

"What's? Young Master doesn't have a movement technique? That's outrageous!" Feli exclaimed in a shocked voice.

"Huh? Is movement technique that important?" Yusri raised his eyebrows after seeing his surprised expression.

"of course! Young Master, movement techniques are as important as martial techniques if not more important! When you are fighting an enemy, how you move to attack and how you move to dodge or defend is very important, or you will be no different from a duck sitting on the battlefield!" Feli said to him.

And he continued, "If Young Master doesn't have a movement technique, I can give you my movement technique! Although it was meant for a phoenix, it could still be used in human form."

"really?" Yusri looked at him with flickering eyes, clearly excited for this movement technique.

"Of course."

Feli then turned to look at Melia and spoke to her, "Senior, you wouldn't mind me giving the Young Master a movement technique, would you?"

Since Feli did not want to disrespect Melia, who might be teaching Yusri as a teacher, he had to ask for permission before teaching Yusri anything, since it was the right equity in the cultivation world, he said, and trying to steal a disciple from another was extremely unwelcome.

After a moment of silence, Melia nodded, "The more Brother Yusri learns the better. Melia doesn't have a good movement technique that matches Brother Yusri's talent, so you can give it to her."

Since he was not Master Yusri, he did not mind others teaching Yusri— as long as what they were teaching was not really trash and worthless.

"Thank you, Senior! I will try my best to teach Young Master!" Feli said to him.

Some time later, after spending a few hours in the air, Feli suddenly stopped.

He then pointed in front of them with his head and said, "This place must be the Dragon Essence Temple. I could feel a deep presence coming from that place."

Yusri turned to look in the direction that Feli saw to see a large place that looked like a city but with more buildings.

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

"I don't know the Flying Sword Sect, but the Dragon Essence Temple is one of the most powerful factions in the Lower Heaven that has only been defeated by a few places and the Heaven and Earth Palace." Feli says.

Yusri nodded and said, "After all, the exam won't start for a few more days so let's take some time to practice this movement technique."

"Okay, let me find a suitable place."

Feli proceeded to fly around the area until they found this vacant land and descended there.

"This looks like the perfect place to train my movement technique," Feli said as he put Yusri back.

Some time later, Feli said, "Since this is something I learned naturally as Vermilion Phoenix, I did not write it down on the scroll, either, so Young Master should try and learn it from watching my moves. While it may take you longer to understand this technique than reading the technique directly from a book or scroll, you can at least watch it executed before your eyes. Of course, it can also benefit you if you are someone who learns better from watching than reading."

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

"A few years?!" Yusri looked at him with wide eyes.

Feli misunderstood Yusri's type of surprise and said with a smile on his face, "I know a few years might sound a bit too fast for movement techniques, but trust me, Young Master, you know, I will do my best to teach you!"

However, Melia opened her mouth to speak afterwards, "Your logic does not apply to Brother Yusri, Vermilion Phoenix. If you underestimate Brother Yusri, you will be in a surprising world."

"Huh?" Feli could not understand Melia's words and tilted his head in confusion. However, that was to be expected, as Feli was unaware of Yusri's heaven-defying comprehension ability that allowed him to learn even Divine level abilities within a few hours.

And even before Melia could explain, Yusri opened her mouth to speak, "Feli Feli, can you show her movement technique?"

"Consider carefully, Young Master! I'll try to do this as late as possible, but it might still be a bit fast!" Feli took a deep breath.

And then he started moving his legs and feet in a unique yet rhythmic way.

"This is a movement technique?" Yusri raised his eyebrows when he saw Feli's movement technique, because it didn't make sense to him.

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

"Uhhh... I don't seem to understand..." Yusri replied, and he continued, "How will it help you avoid your opponent during battle? You're just moving in a small area."

Feli pondered for a moment before speaking, "Young Master, why don't you try to attack me?"

"Huh? Are you sure?"

Feli nodded and said, "Yes."

"OK..." Yusri took his Spirit Sword and approached Feli.

"Young Master, you can attack me whenever you are ready. You also don't have to hold back." Feli said to him a moment later.

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

Yusri starts attacking Feli without any real sword techniques.

"Eh?"

However, Yusri quickly realizes that no matter how much he tries to hit Feli, he will dodge all of his attacks.

"It's just the basics, Young Master. Let me show you what this movement technique can achieve with a high level of mastery..."

Feli said to him before his fiery wings returned.

He then took a step towards Yusri before disappearing from his sight, almost like a ghost.

"What do you think, Young Master?"

Feli's voice suddenly resounded from all directions around Yusri, causing him to look around. However, no matter which direction he looked, Feli was there. In fact, there were over a dozen Feli casually standing around him at this moment, almost like his body had doubled.

"Whatis that? Is this a movement technique? Are you sure you didn't clone your body instead?" Yusri said with a dumbfounded expression.

Feli suddenly stopped moving, and a second later, his clone disappeared.

"I was just moving so fast that you saw a dozen of me" Feli said.

"So as long as I learn this movement technique, my opponent won't be able to hit me?" Yusri asked him afterwards.

"That's right. Unless they know your movement technique or can guess where you are going to move next, it will be very difficult for them to graze you, much less do an accurate strike on you. And even if they somehow know your moves, they still have to be fast enough to hit you. As long as you are inside the Lower Heaven, you will not be touched by this movement technique."

"Untouchable..." Yusri muttered in a low voice.

"By the way, this technique is called 'Vermilion Phoenix Dominating Heaven'. I named it myself," said Feli with a smug expression on his face.

"Vermilion Phoenix Dominating Heaven? What an arrogant name for a movement technique..." Melia was speechless by Feli's helplessness to give the movement technique such a grand name.

Some time later, Yusri said to Feli, "Feli Feli, can you show his movement technique a few more times? I've memorized all the moves, but I still need to understand the essence."

"Eh? Have you memorized his movements?" Feli looked at him with a dazed face.

There were over a thousand moves for the movement technique! How could someone at the Spirit Warrior level be able to memorize so many moves in such a short amount of time? That was really amazing
