Beneath this roaring river of flames, the existence of such a realm was truly beyond imagination. Who was the mighty cultivator that carved out this space?
“Huh…?”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze locked onto a crystal stone on the ground, glowing with a blood-red light, exuding an aura of unusualness.
“Treasure! This must be a treasure!” Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy. Back on the surface, he had noticed occasional red glimmers from below, and now he had really stumbled upon it.
“Ding! Congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
Beneath this river of flames, there lies a realm that is truly beyond imagination. It’s hard to fathom which mighty being could have opened up such a world.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, which exuded an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes from below, and now he had indeed encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly profound.
Infinite vitality.
Anything related to vitality couldn’t be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began to collect these Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated they could be used either for forging weapons or for alchemy.
Lin Fan happily collected the Nirvana Stones until he saw a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a flame, which made him stop in his tracks.
“Encountered a great treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan immediately ran forward, circling around the egg, examining it closely.
On the pure white shell, faint red patterns occasionally flickered.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: Where the Phoenix lands, there must be a great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient fierce beast was no joke. An adult ancient fierce beast could easily sweep through a super sect.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Dongling Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, even feeling a surge of immense vitality churning within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the egg of the ancient fierce beast, the Phoenix.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient fierce beast, the Phoenix, which will hatch in one month.”
Upon touching the egg, Lin Fan laughed heartily in his mind. It was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free super fighter.
An ancient fierce beast surpassing the Great Heavenly Realm! With proper use, it could even help him surpass the Great Heavenly Realm in cultivation.
Thinking this, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. He would stay here and guard it. This was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity. Lin Fan wasn’t foolish enough to leave the egg alone and go searching for other treasures. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.
Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Days passed, and after three days, Lin Fan grew bored. He took out some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng and filled his stomach.
If this continued for a month, he would go crazy. He needed to find something to do.
Lin Fan then took out the Eternal Axe, which he hadn’t studied much since obtaining it. Now, out of boredom, he examined it closely.
The axe’s body shimmered with a faint, ancient aura.
At this moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, thinking he might have seen wrong.
When the axe flashed with a dim light, it seemed to reveal a pattern.
Lin Fan touched the axe’s body, finding it smooth with no grooves. Had he been mistaken?
With a puzzled heart, Lin Fan stared intently. Then, the axe’s body flashed again.
This time, Lin Fan saw clearly.
When the light flashed, there was indeed a pattern, which lasted for only a second.
With the sun and moon inverted beneath the river of flames, Lin Fan lost track of time.
Apart from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a naked giant, holding an axe, whose eyes opened and closed as he lightly swung the axe, slicing through layers of void and creating a torrent of void.
At this moment, Lin Fan slightly closed his eyes, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if he were the giant, bearing the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
Instantly, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless air currents surging into it.
“Whoosh…”
Lin Fan suddenly opened his eyes, filled with astonishment. That single slash had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
The true essence within Lin Fan was like a vast ocean. Although his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, it rivaled the storage capacity of a Small Heavenly Realm expert.
Yet, this single slash had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first stance of the Three Axes of Creation—Heaven’s Vault.”
“Heaven’s Vault, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
After recovering his true essence, Lin Fan once again immersed himself in the might of this axe.
Gradually, he began to comprehend the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Heaven’s Vault.”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and essence reached their peak. With a swing of the axe, countless torrents attached to the blade, slicing through the void and creating another torrent of void.
“Powerful.”
Compared to the “One Finger Annihilation,” this axe’s power was even more formidable, with greater destructive force.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, carefully comprehending the Three Axes of Creation. Currently, only one stance was available, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two stances might only be restored after repairing the axe.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, even this single stance was overwhelmingly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems that I, indeed, possess extraordinary luck, to have noticed such a subtle detail in such a remote place.
“Crack…”
At this moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy as he immediately turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
Though Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, he could tell from the description that this was something extraordinary.
Boundless vitality—anything related to life energy was definitely no trifle.
Without hesitation, Lin Fan immediately started collecting the Nirvana Stones. They varied in size—some as small as a fingernail, others as large as a clenched fist.
Though he didn’t yet know their specific use, Lin Fan assumed there were only two possibilities—either forging weapons or refining pills.
He cheerfully gathered the stones until his gaze fell upon a white egg, the size of a basketball, floating within a flame, and he stopped in his tracks.
“Another great treasure…”
Wave after wave of surprises left Lin Fan almost overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones into his bag, Lin Fan hurriedly ran forward, circling the egg and examining it closely.
Thin red veins occasionally flickered across its smooth white shell.
“Could this possibly be a Fenghuang egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled an old saying: “Where the Fenghuang descends, great treasures are sure to follow.”
If this truly was a Fenghuang egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
Beneath this river of flames, there lies a realm so astonishing that it defies belief. It’s unclear which great master opened up this space.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes below, and now he had truly encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly profound.

“Encountered a great treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly approached the egg, examining it closely.
The pure white shell occasionally flashed with red streaks.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: Where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient ferocious beast was no joke. An adult ancient ferocious beast could sweep through even the mightiest sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Dongling Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, even feeling a surge of immense vitality churning within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Phoenix Egg of the Ancient Ferocious Beast.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient ferocious beast Phoenix, hatching in one month.”

Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free super fighter.
An ancient ferocious beast surpassing the Great Heaven Realm! With proper use, having it fight for him could mean his cultivation would soon surpass the Great Heaven Realm.
As he thought, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. He would stay here and guard it. This was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity. Lin Fan’s heart wasn’t so bold as to leave the egg alone and search for other treasures elsewhere. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.

When the light flashed, there was indeed a pattern, but it lasted no more than a second.
With time distorted beneath the river of flames, Lin Fan lost track of it.
Apart from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a naked giant, holding an axe. With a slight swing of his axe, he tore through layers of void, creating a void current.
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt like the giant, wielding the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.

Whoosh…

Yet, that single slash had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first stance of the Three Axes of Creation: Sky.”
“Sky, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
Lin Fan then restored his true essence and immersed himself again in the might of that axe strike.
Gradually, he began to comprehend the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and essence reached their peak. With a swing of the axe, countless currents attached to the blade, tearing through the void and forming another void current.

At that moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy as he turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
The Fenghuang he had seen earlier was likely unmatched across the entire Dongling Continent.
Lin Fan reached out to touch the egg and could even sense a vast surge of life energy churning within.
Beneath this river of flames, there lies an unexpected realm, truly astonishing. It’s hard to imagine which powerful being could have opened up such a space.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, which exuded an unusual aura.

One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.

The pure white eggshell occasionally flickered with red streaks.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient ferocious beast was no joke. An adult ancient ferocious beast could sweep through even the most powerful sects.

Upon touching the egg, Lin Fan laughed heartily in his mind. It was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free super enforcer.
An ancient ferocious beast surpassing the Great Heaven Realm! With proper use, having it spar with him could mean his cultivation would soon surpass the Great Heaven Realm.
Thinking this, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.

Besides waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a bare-chested giant, holding an axe. With a slight swing, the giant split the void, creating a torrential flow.
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, sensing the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Split…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt like the giant himself, wielding the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
Instantly, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless air currents swirling into it.
“Whoosh…”
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with astonishment. That single swing had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
Lin Fan’s true essence was like a vast ocean. Though his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, his reserves rivaled those of a Small Heaven Realm expert.
Yet, that single swing had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first form of the Sky-Splitting Three Axes: Firmament.”
“Firmament, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single swing drain him completely?
After recovering his true essence, Lin Fan immersed himself again in the might of that swing.
Gradually, he began to understand the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Firmament.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit reached its peak. With a swing, countless torrents clung to the axe’s blade, splitting the void and forming another torrential flow.
“Powerful.”
Compared to “One Finger Annihilation,” this swing was even more formidable, with greater destructive power.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, carefully contemplating it. The Sky-Splitting Three Axes currently had only one form, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two forms might only be restored after repairing the axe.
But Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, even this single form was incredibly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems I truly have extraordinary luck, to notice such a subtle detail in such a place.
“Crack…”
At that moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy. He immediately turned around.
“It’s about to hatch…”
Beneath this river of flames, there lies an entirely different realm, a sight so astonishing that it defies belief. One can only wonder which powerful being opened up this vast expanse.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze settled on the ground, where a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow caught his attention. It exuded an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great excitement. Earlier, he had noticed intermittent red flashes from below, and now he had indeed encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the ten great ferocious beasts, containing boundless life force.”
Though Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly profound.
Boundless life force.
Anything related to life force couldn’t possibly be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting the Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated that they could either be used for forging weapons or refining elixirs.
Lin Fan happily gathered the Nirvana Stones until he came across a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a cluster of flames. He stopped in his tracks.
“A major treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly approached the egg, examining it closely.
The pristine white shell occasionally flickered with faint red patterns.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient ferocious beast was no joke. An adult ancient beast could easily dominate even the most powerful sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely unmatched across the entire Eastern Spirit Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, feeling a surge of immense life force churning within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the egg of the ancient ferocious beast, the Phoenix.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient ferocious beast, the Phoenix, will hatch in one month.”
Upon touching the egg, Lin Fan laughed heartily. It was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free, super-powerful ally.
An ancient ferocious beast surpassing the Great Heaven Realm! With such a creature at his disposal, he could quickly surpass the Great Heaven Realm in cultivation.
Lost in thought, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t leave this spot. This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Lin Fan wasn’t foolish enough to leave the egg unattended while he searched for other treasures. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.
Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Days passed, and after three days, Lin Fan grew bored. He took out some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng and filled his stomach.
If this continued for a month, he would go mad. He needed to find something to do.
Lin Fan then took out the Eternal Axe, which he hadn’t studied much since acquiring it. Now, out of boredom, he examined it closely.
The axe’s body shimmered with an eerie light, exuding an ancient aura.
At that moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, thinking he might have seen wrong.
When the axe flashed with that eerie light, it seemed as though there was a pattern on it.
Lin Fan ran his fingers over the axe’s surface, finding it smooth with no grooves. Had he imagined it?
With a puzzled heart, Lin Fan stared intently at the axe. Just then, the axe flashed again.
This time, Lin Fan saw it clearly.
As the light flashed, there was indeed a pattern, though it lasted no more than a second.
Time seemed to lose meaning beneath the river of flames.
Apart from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a bare-chested giant, holding an axe. With a slight swing of the axe, he cleaved through layers of void, creating a torrential void stream.
Lin Fan closed his eyes, feeling the ancient, profound aura emanating from the Eternal Axe, as if it were from a distant, ancient past.
At that moment, Lin Fan’s wrist twitched slightly, and the Eternal Axe erupted with a dazzling light.
“Cleave…”
Lin Fan felt as though he had become the giant, wielding the power of heaven and earth, and swung the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
Instantly, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless streams of air rushing into it.
Lin Fan opened his eyes abruptly, his face filled with astonishment. That single swing had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
Lin Fan’s true essence was like an ocean. Though his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, his reserves rivaled those of a Small Heaven Realm expert.
Yet, this single swing had drained most of it, something Lin Fan found hard to believe.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first stance of the Three Axes of Creation: Skyrend.”
“Skyrend, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. Just the first level had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single swing leave him completely drained?
After recovering his true essence, Lin Fan immersed himself once more in the might of the axe.
Gradually, he began to understand the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Skyrend.”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and essence reached their peak. With a single swing, countless streams of energy converged on the axe’s edge, cleaving through the void and creating another torrential void stream.
“Powerful.”
Compared to “One Finger Annihilation,” this axe’s power was even more formidable, with greater destructive force.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, pondering deeply. The Three Axes of Creation currently had only one stance, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two stances would probably only be restored once the axe was repaired.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. Even this single stance seemed overwhelmingly powerful to him.
Under normal circumstances, he might not have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seemed that he truly was a person of extraordinary fortune, to have noticed such a subtle detail in such a peculiar place.
“Crack…”
Just then, a crisp sound echoed. Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy, and he immediately turned around.
“It’s about to hatch…”
The moment Lin Fan made contact, his heart erupted in laughter. So it really was a Fenghuang egg—and it would hatch in a month!
Suppressing his excitement, Lin Fan imagined—once the Fenghuang hatched, wouldn’t he have a free, super-powered bodyguard?
Beneath this river of flames, there lies a realm so astonishing that it defies imagination. It’s unclear which great being opened up this space.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes from below, and now he had truly encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Though Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly high-end.
Infinite vitality.
Anything related to vitality couldn’t be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting these Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated they could be used either for forging or alchemy.
Lin Fan happily gathered the Nirvana Stones until he saw a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a flame, and he stopped in his tracks.
“Encountered a great treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly approached, circling the egg and examining it closely.
The pure white eggshell occasionally flashed with red patterns.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient fierce beast was no joke; an adult ancient fierce beast could sweep through even the most powerful sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Eastern Spirit Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, even feeling a surge of immense vitality within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the egg of the ancient fierce beast, the Phoenix.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient fierce beast, the Phoenix, will hatch in one month.”
Upon touching the egg, Lin Fan laughed heartily in his mind. It was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free super fighter.
An ancient fierce beast surpassing the Great Heaven Realm! If he could utilize it well, having it spar with him, wouldn’t that mean his cultivation could surpass the Great Heaven Realm in no time?
Thinking this, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. He would stay here and guard it. This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Lin Fan’s heart wasn’t so big as to leave the egg alone and search for treasures elsewhere. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.
Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Time passed day by day. Three days later, Lin Fan grew bored and took some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng to fill his stomach.
If this continued for a month, he would go crazy. He needed to find something to do.
Lin Fan then took out the Eternal Axe, which he hadn’t studied much since acquiring it. Now, out of boredom, he examined it closely.
The axe’s body shimmered with a faint, ancient aura.
At that moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, as if he had seen something wrong.
When the axe flashed with a dim light, there seemed to be a pattern on it.
Lin Fan touched the axe’s body but found it smooth, with no grooves. Had he been mistaken?
With a puzzled heart, Lin Fan stared intently. Then, the axe’s body flashed with light again.
This time, Lin Fan saw it clearly.
When the light flashed, there was indeed a pattern, and it lasted no more than a second.
With time distorted beneath the river of flames, Lin Fan lost track of time.
Apart from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a naked giant, holding an axe, his eyes opening and closing as he lightly swung it forward, tearing through layers of void and creating a void torrent.
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if he were the giant, bearing the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
Instantly, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless currents swirling into it.
“Whoosh…”
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with astonishment. That single slash had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
The true essence within Lin Fan was like a vast ocean. Though his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, it rivaled the reserves of a Small Heaven Realm expert.
Yet, this single slash had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first form of the Three Axes of Creation: Sky.”
“Sky, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
Lin Fan then restored his true essence and immersed himself again in the might of this axe.
Gradually, he comprehended the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and essence reached their peak. With a swing of the axe, countless torrents clung to the blade, tearing through the void and forming another void torrent.
“Powerful.”
Compared to “One Finger Extinction,” this axe’s power was even more formidable, with greater destructive force.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, carefully comprehending it. The Three Axes of Creation currently had only one form, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two forms would probably only be restored after repairing the axe.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, this single form was already overwhelmingly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he might not have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems I truly possess immense fortune, to have noticed such a subtle detail in such a remote place.
“Crack…”
At that moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy as he turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
Imagining this, Lin Fan wiped the drool from his mouth and plopped down on the ground, staring intently at the Fenghuang egg.
From this moment on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. This was a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity, and Lin Fan wasn’t foolish enough to leave the egg alone while he went treasure hunting elsewhere. If someone else came and took it while he was gone, he’d probably cry his eyes out.
So Lin Fan sat cross-legged, watching silently.
Day after day passed. By the third day, Lin Fan grew bored and pulled out some food from the storage pouch he had looted from Lei Hengfeng to fill his stomach.
If this continued for a whole month, he’d go mad. He needed something to do.
He then retrieved the Eternal Axe. Since obtaining it, Lin Fan hadn’t had the chance to study it closely. Now, with time on his hands, he examined it carefully.
The axe head shimmered with a dark luster, exuding a faint ancient aura.
At that moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, as if doubting what he had just seen.
When the axe briefly emitted a dark glow, hadn’t there been a pattern on its surface?
He ran his fingers over the axe’s surface, but it felt perfectly smooth, with no grooves. Had he imagined it?
Still puzzled, Lin Fan kept his eyes fixed on it. Then, the axe glowed again.
This time, Lin Fan saw clearly.
Yes, there was a pattern revealed during the glow—it only lasted for about a second.
The sun and moon inverted. In this blazing river of flames, Lin Fan had long lost all sense of time.
Besides waiting for the Fenghuang egg to hatch, Lin Fan devoted all his attention to the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the image of that pattern.
Beneath this river of flames, there lies a realm so astonishing that it defies belief. One can only wonder which great being had the power to create such a place.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze fell upon a crystal stone on the ground, emitting a blood-red glow, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes from below, and now he had truly encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly profound.
Infinite vitality.
Anything related to vitality couldn’t be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting the Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
While he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated they could be used for either forging or alchemy.
Lin Fan happily gathered the Nirvana Stones until he stopped in his tracks upon seeing a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a flame.
“A great treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly approached the egg, examining it closely.
The pure white shell occasionally flickered with red patterns.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient fierce beast was no joke. An adult ancient fierce beast could easily dominate even the most powerful sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Dongling Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, even sensing a vast, surging vitality within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Egg of the Ancient Fierce Beast Phoenix.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient fierce beast Phoenix, hatching in one month.”
Upon touching it, Lin Fan laughed inwardly—it was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement, thinking that once the Phoenix emerged, he would have a free, super-powerful ally.
An ancient fierce beast surpassing the Great Heavenly Realm—if he could utilize it properly, having it spar with him, wouldn’t his cultivation surpass the Great Heavenly Realm in no time?
Lost in thought, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. He would stay here and guard it. This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Lin Fan wasn’t foolish enough to leave the egg unattended while he searched for other treasures. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.
Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Days passed, and after three days, Lin Fan grew bored. He took out some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng and filled his stomach.
If this continued for a month, he would go crazy. He needed to find something to do.
Lin Fan then took out the Eternal Axe, which he hadn’t studied much since acquiring it. Now, with nothing else to do, he examined it closely.
The axe’s body shimmered with a faint, ancient aura.
At that moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, thinking he might have seen wrong.
When the axe had flashed with that eerie light, it seemed like there was a pattern on it.
Lin Fan ran his fingers over the axe’s body, finding it smooth with no grooves. Had he imagined it?
With a puzzled heart, Lin Fan stared intently. Then, the axe’s body flashed again.
This time, Lin Fan saw it clearly.
When the light flashed, there was indeed a pattern, but it only lasted for a second.
With time distorted beneath the river of flames, Lin Fan lost track of it.
Aside from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
In the pattern, a naked giant held an axe, and with a slight swing, he tore through layers of void, creating a torrent of void energy.
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes, feeling the deep, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—it felt so distant, so primordial.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if he were the giant, wielding the power of heaven and earth, slashing through the void.
“Boom…”
In an instant, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless currents rushing into it.
“Whoosh…”
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with shock. That single slash had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
Lin Fan’s true essence was like an ocean. Although he was only at the early stage of the Divine Realm, his reserves rivaled those of a Small Heavenly Realm expert.
Yet, that single slash had drained most of it, leaving Lin Fan utterly bewildered.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first form of the Three Axes of Creation—Sky.”
“Sky, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
After recovering his true essence, Lin Fan immersed himself once more in the power of that slash.
Gradually, he began to understand the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and mind reached their peak. With a single swing, countless torrents clung to the axe’s blade, tearing through the void, creating another torrent of void energy.
“Powerful.”
Compared to “One Finger Annihilation,” this slash was even more formidable, with greater destructive power.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, carefully contemplating the Three Axes of Creation. Currently, only one form was available, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two forms would probably require repairing the axe.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his eyes, even this single form was overwhelmingly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he might not have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems I truly am a person of great fortune, to have noticed such a subtle detail in this obscure place.
“Crack…”
At that moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy as he turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, sensing the deep, ancient aura radiating from the Eternal Axe—as if it came from an impossibly distant, primordial era.
Suddenly, his wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe erupted with a blinding light.
“Slash…”
Beneath this river of flames, there lies an expanse of land, truly beyond imagination. It’s hard to fathom which powerful being could have opened up such a realm.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes from below, and now he had indeed encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly high-end.
Infinite vitality.
Anything related to vitality couldn’t be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting the Nirvana Stones. They varied in size, from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated there were only two possibilities: either for forging weapons or for alchemy.
Lin Fan happily gathered the Nirvana Stones until he saw a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a flame, and he stopped in his tracks.
“Encountered a great treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly ran forward, circling the egg, examining it closely.
The pure white eggshell occasionally flickered with red streaks.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient ferocious beast was no joke. An adult ancient ferocious beast could sweep through even the most powerful sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Dongling Continent.
Lin Fan reached out and touched the Phoenix egg, even sensing a vast vitality churning within.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Phoenix Egg of the Ancient Ferocious Beast.”
“Phoenix Egg: The crystallization of the ancient ferocious beast Phoenix, hatching in one month.”
Upon touching it, Lin Fan laughed heartily in his mind. It was indeed a Phoenix egg, and it would hatch in a month.
Lin Fan steadied his excitement. Once the Phoenix emerged, wouldn’t he have a free, super-strong enforcer?
An ancient ferocious beast surpassing the Great Heavenly Realm! With proper utilization, having it fight for him would mean his cultivation could surpass the Great Heavenly Realm in no time.
Thinking this, Lin Fan wiped his drool and sat down, staring intently at the Phoenix egg.
From now on, he wouldn’t go anywhere else. He would stay here and guard it. This was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. Lin Fan’s heart wasn’t so bold as to leave the egg alone and search for other treasures elsewhere. If someone else came and took the egg while he was away, he would be devastated.
Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Days passed, and after three days, Lin Fan grew bored. He took some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng and filled his stomach.

At this moment, Lin Fan rubbed his eyes, as if he had seen something wrong.
When the axe had just flashed with an eerie light, there seemed to be a pattern on it.
Lin Fan touched the axe’s body, finding it smooth without any grooves. Had he been mistaken?
With a puzzled heart, Lin Fan stared intently. Then, the axe’s body flashed with light again.
This time, Lin Fan saw it clearly.
As the light flashed, there indeed was a pattern, lasting no more than a second.
With the sun and moon inverted beneath the river of flames, Lin Fan lost track of time.
Apart from waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a bare-chested giant, holding an axe. With a slight opening and closing of his eyes, he lightly swung the axe forward, tearing through layers of void and creating a void current.
At this moment, Lin Fan slightly closed his eyes, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At this moment, Lin Fan felt as if he were the giant, bearing the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
In an instant, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless currents rushing into it.
Whoosh…
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with astonishment. That single slash had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
The true essence within Lin Fan’s body was like a vast ocean. Although his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, his storage capacity rivaled that of a Small Heavenly Realm expert.
Yet, this single slash had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first form of the Heaven-Splitting Three Axes: Sky Dome.”
“Sky Dome, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
Then, Lin Fan restored his true essence and immersed himself again in the might of this axe.
Gradually, he comprehended the profound aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky Dome.”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and essence reached their peak. With a slight opening and closing, he swung the axe, and countless currents attached to the blade, tearing through the void, forming a void current once more.
“Powerful.”
Compared to “One Finger Annihilation,” this axe’s power was even more formidable, with greater destructive force.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe, carefully comprehending it. The Heaven-Splitting Three Axes currently had only one form, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two forms would probably only be restored after repairing the Eternal Axe.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, this single form was already incredibly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems I truly possess extraordinary luck, to have noticed such a subtle detail in such a place.
“Crack…”
At this moment, a crisp sound came, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy. He immediately turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
“Boom…”
Beneath this river of flames, there lies an unexpected realm, truly beyond imagination. It’s hard to fathom which mighty being could have opened up such a space.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, on a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes below, and now he had indeed encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Fierce Beasts, containing infinite vitality.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly high-end.
Infinite vitality.
Anything related to vitality surely isn’t worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting the Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated they could be used either for forging or alchemy.

Thus, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, quietly watching.
Days passed, and after three days, Lin Fan grew bored. He took out some food from the storage bag he had looted from Lei Hengfeng and filled his stomach.
Continuing like this for a month would drive him insane. He needed to find something to do.
Lin Fan then took out the Eternal Axe, which he hadn’t studied much since obtaining it. Now, out of boredom, he examined it closely.

At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Slash…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt like he was the giant, bearing the power of heaven and earth, slashing through the void.
“Boom…”
Instantly, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless currents rushing into it.
Whoosh…
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with astonishment. That single slash had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
The true essence within Lin Fan was like a vast ocean. Although his cultivation was only at the early Divine Realm, his storage capacity rivaled that of a Small Heaven Realm expert.
Yet, that single slash had consumed most of it. To Lin Fan, it was truly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first form of the Three Axes of Creation—Sky.”
“Sky, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single slash drain him completely?
Lin Fan then restored his true essence and immersed himself again in the might of that slash.
Gradually, he comprehended the profound aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and mind reached their peak. With a slight opening and closing, he swung the axe, and countless torrents attached to the blade, tearing through the void and forming a void torrent once more.
“Powerful.”
Compared to the “One Finger Extinction,” the might of this slash was even more formidable, with greater destructive power.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe and carefully pondered. Of the Three Axes of Creation, only one form was available now, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two forms would probably be restored only after repairing the axe.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, this single form was already incredibly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seems I truly have immense fortune, to notice such a subtle detail in such a tricky place.
“Crack…”
Just then, a crisp sound came, and Lin Fan’s heart leaped with joy as he turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
Huff…
Lin Fan suddenly opened his eyes wide, shocked. That single slash had consumed half of his spiritual energy.
Unbelievable…
Lin Fan’s spiritual energy was like an ocean—though currently at the early Divine Foundation stage, his reserves rivaled those of experts at the Small Heaven Realm.
Yet now, a single axe strike had drained most of it. In Lin Fan’s eyes, this was truly beyond comprehension.
“Ding! Congratulations on mastering the first technique of the Heaven-Sundering Three Strikes—’Cangqiong.'”
“Cangqiong, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, helplessly shaking his head. If just Level 1 had consumed so much energy, what would happen at higher levels? He might end up draining himself to death with a single strike.
After recovering his energy, Lin Fan threw himself back into studying the axe’s immense, ancient power.
Gradually, he began to grasp the profound aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Cangqiong.”
Beneath this river of flames, there lies a realm that defies imagination. It’s truly astonishing, and one wonders which great master opened up this world.
“Hmm…”
At this moment, Lin Fan’s gaze lingered on the ground, where a crystal stone emitting a blood-red glow caught his attention, exuding an unusual aura.
“Treasure, this must be a treasure,” Lin Fan thought with great joy. Earlier, he had noticed occasional red flashes from below, and now he had indeed encountered it.
“Ding, congratulations on discovering the Nirvana Stone.”
“Nirvana Stone: A crystal formed during the fourth nirvana of the Phoenix, one of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts, containing infinite life force.”
Although Lin Fan didn’t fully understand, the description sounded incredibly profound.
Infinite life force.
Anything related to life force couldn’t possibly be worthless.
Without further ado, Lin Fan began collecting the Nirvana Stones, which varied in size from as small as a fingernail to as large as a fist.
Though he still didn’t know their exact use, Lin Fan speculated there were only two possibilities: either for forging weapons or for alchemy.
Lin Fan happily gathered the Nirvana Stones until he came across a pure white egg, the size of a basketball, floating amidst a cluster of flames, causing him to halt in his tracks.
“A major treasure…”
One surprise after another left Lin Fan somewhat overwhelmed.
After placing the Nirvana Stones in his backpack, Lin Fan quickly approached the egg, carefully examining it.
The pristine eggshell occasionally flickered with faint red patterns.
“Could this be a Phoenix egg?” Lin Fan muttered to himself.
He recalled a saying: where the Phoenix lands, there must be a great treasure.
If this truly was a Phoenix egg, then it was indeed a treasure.
The offspring of an ancient ferocious beast was no joke. An adult ancient ferocious beast could sweep through even the most powerful sects.
The Phoenix he had seen earlier was likely invincible across the entire Dongling Continent.

Besides waiting for the Phoenix egg to hatch, Lin Fan focused his mind on the Eternal Axe.
Finally, one day, Lin Fan stood up.
His mind was filled with the pattern on the axe.
The pattern depicted a bare-chested giant, holding an axe. With a slight opening and closing of his eyes, he lightly swung the axe forward, slicing through layers of void and tearing open a void stream.
At that moment, Lin Fan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the aura emanating from the Eternal Axe—a deep, ancient aura, as if from a distant, primordial time.
Lin Fan’s wrist trembled slightly, and the Eternal Axe burst forth with a dazzling light.
“Cleave…”
At that moment, Lin Fan felt as if he were the giant, bearing the power of heaven and earth, swinging the axe through the void.
“Boom…”
In an instant, a dark void rift appeared before Lin Fan, with countless air currents swirling into it.
Whoosh…
Lin Fan’s eyes snapped open, filled with astonishment. That single swing had consumed half of his true essence.
Terrifying…
The true essence within Lin Fan’s body was like a vast ocean. Although his cultivation was only at the early stage of the Divine Realm, his storage capacity rivaled that of a Small Heaven Realm expert.
Yet, that single swing had consumed most of it, which Lin Fan found utterly unbelievable.
“Ding, congratulations on comprehending the first stance of the Heaven-Splitting Three Axes: Sky.”
“Sky, Level 1.”
…
Lin Fan gasped for breath, feeling helpless. At just the first level, it had consumed most of his true essence. If the level increased, wouldn’t a single swing drain him completely?
Lin Fan then restored his true essence and immersed himself once more in the might of the axe.
Gradually, he began to comprehend the profound, ancient aura emanating from the Eternal Axe.
“Sky.”
At that moment, Lin Fan’s spirit, energy, and mind reached their peak. With a slight opening and closing of his eyes, he swung the axe, and countless streams attached to the blade, slicing through the void and forming a void stream once more.
“Powerful.”
Compared to the “Finger of Annihilation,” the might of this axe was even more formidable, with greater destructive power.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe and continued to ponder. The Heaven-Splitting Three Axes currently had only one stance, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two stances would probably only be restored once the axe was repaired.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. In his view, even this single stance was incredibly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he might not have noticed that the Eternal Axe carried such a technique.
It seemed that he truly had extraordinary luck, to have noticed such a subtle detail in such a peculiar place.
“Crack…”
At that moment, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy as he immediately turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
“Powerful.”
Compared to his “Finger of Annihilation,” this axe strike was even more devastating, with far greater destructive power.
Lin Fan picked up the Eternal Axe again, carefully sensing its power. The Heaven-Sundering Three Strikes currently had only one technique, likely because the Eternal Axe was damaged. The other two techniques would probably only return once the axe was restored.
But Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry. Even this one technique alone was already overwhelmingly powerful.
Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t have noticed that the Eternal Axe contained such a technique.
Looks like he really was a person of extraordinary fortune, to notice something so obscure.
“Crack…”
Just then, a crisp sound rang out, and Lin Fan’s heart leapt with joy. He immediately turned his head.
“It’s about to hatch…”
