You Were Picked Up

On the back of the Seven-Colored Spirit Crane, Mo Tang sat cross-legged, his right hand supporting his chin, and said, "Having a flying mount is great. If we get bored on the road, we can chat or cultivate a bit..."

After speaking, he deliberately glanced at the big, Azure Wolf King next to him.

The Azure Wolf King was startled by his young master's gaze and quickly said, "Young master, I am a forest wolf, I have no wings..."

Mo Tang curled his lip, "Don't worry, even if you had wings, I wouldn't let you be my mount. That would be too beneath me..."

Azure Wolf King: "...!"

That heartless young master is wicked! He always likes to make fun of me... I've really gotten myself on a sinking ship!

Just as the Azure Wolf King was filled with resentment, Xiao Yi Xian's purple eyes were fixed on Mo Tang, making the latter feel extremely uncomfortable...

"Okay, go ahead and ask me whatever you want. If you keep staring like this, I'm getting goosebumps!"

Seeing that the attempt to shift targets had failed, Mo Tang had no choice but to face reality.

A hint of a smile flashed in Xiao Yi Xian's beautiful eyes, and then she asked Mo Tang, who had given up resisting, "Tell me, how did you manage to hook up with this young lady from the Wind Thunder Pavilion again?"

Mo Tang rolled his eyes at him.

"What do you mean by flirting? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Judging from Xiao Yi Xian's reaction, it was clear that in the other party's mind, his character in this regard was not so trustworthy.

Left with no other choice, Mo Tang could only briefly explain to Xiao Yi Xian that he possessed the Demon Phoenix Bloodline and that he was related to the Wind Thunder Gangsha.

The Azure Wolf King beside him was also openly eavesdropping...

Regarding the Wind Thunder Gangsha, the Xiao Yi Xian wasn't too surprised, since it was Mo Tang's own opportunity and luck, which was quite common on the continent.

However, regarding his Sky Demon Phoenix bloodline...

"Could it be that your Mo Clan ancestors were related to the Sky Demon Phoenix? That doesn't make sense either. If it were a bloodline inherited from the Mo Clan, you wouldn't be the only one..."

At this point, Xiao Yi Xian's eyes lit up, and she blurted out, "Could it be that you were picked up by your parents?"

As soon as she said it, Xiao Yi Xian realized what she had said and quickly looked over apologetically.

Mo Tang didn't care about this at all. After all, he had only inherited the original body and had never even met the original's parents and relatives, let alone had any feelings for them.

"How would I know? They passed away when I was young, and to be honest, my memories of them are already quite hazy..."

Seeing that Mo Tang's expression didn't seem fake, Xiao Yi Xian was finally relieved.

But thinking about it again, my casual remark might not be entirely untrue.

At this moment, Feng Qing'er, who had been standing on the head of the spirit crane, also came over at some point. Looking at Mo Tang, she asked with some curiosity, "When did you realize that you had awakened the Demon Phoenix Bloodline?"

Clearly, she had overheard the conversation between the three of them, and she did so openly, even more daring than that blockhead Azure Wolf King!

Mo Tang pondered for a moment, then replied, "It should be when I broke through to the Dou Emperor. However, the bloodline awakening process wasn't fast at that time. It wasn't until I reached the Peak Dou Emperor that I was able to unleash the Demon Phoenix Wings and the Demon Phoenix Sacred Image..."

Feng Qing'er's initial curiosity instantly turned into shock, and she exclaimed in disbelief, "You've actually awakened the Demon Phoenix Sacred Image?"

Mo Tang was also taken aback by the girl's reaction and asked in confusion, "What? Is it that difficult?"

"Of course!"

Seeing Mo Tang's expression, I almost jumped up in anger.

"Don't you know that even in my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, there are many people who cannot awaken the Demon Phoenix Sacred Image before reaching adulthood?"

Mo Tang shook his head honestly. "I don't know."

Feng Qing'er: "..."

"I can't be bothered with you! We're almost at the Wind Thunder Mountain Range. Next, we'll go see my master, Venerable Lei, and ask him about this Wind Thunder Gangsha(a type of internal energy)... Who knows, we really are family after all..."

Given Mo Tang's performance, it wouldn't matter if the Wind Thunder Gangsha he learned was a technique passed down exclusively within his Wind Thunder Pavilion lineage... At worst, it would just mean that Venerable Lei would have one more disciple.

Given Mo Tang's demonstrated talent, coupled with his identity Demon Phoenix Bloodline, it was certain that Venerable Lei would not harbor any ill intentions towards him.

The East Pavilion of Fenglei Pavilion is located in the Fenglei Mountains on the edge of the Northern Region.

This region is quite peculiar. Perhaps due to its high altitude, it is always filled with thunder and the weather is unpredictable. One moment it is sunny and bright, and the next moment it may be thunder and rain.

Just as he entered the mountain range, Mo Tang felt a faint sense of joy emanating from his Dou Qi...

"Such a dense concentration of wind and thunder power!"

If one were to cultivate the Wind Thunder Gangsha in such a place, the speed would probably be 30% higher than outside!

Mo Tang glanced at his Minimap and immediately realized that countless powerful Wind Thunder Pavilion experts were hidden within these mountains...

If anyone dares to force their way in, they will probably be blasted to smithereens by these powerful figures before they even get deep into the mountains.

As expected of the East Pavilion headquarters of the Wind Thunder Pavilion, its defenses are truly astonishing!

Even Mo Tang could only sigh at this.

Compared to this place, my so-called Wind Thunder Alliance is simply pathetic...

Led by Feng Qing'er, although the Wind Thunder Pavilion experts below also noticed the unfamiliar aura on the Seven-Colored Spirit Crane, they did not react at all, allowing the group to directly and smoothly arrive at Thunder Mountain in the very center of the Wind Thunder Mountain Range.

After disembarking at the foot of the mountain, the group of six quickly hiked up the mountain.

Before even reaching the summit, Mo Tang and the others could already see the colossal silver tower atop the highest peak, piercing deep into the rolling thunderclouds...

That is where the East Pavilion of Fenglei Pavilion is located.

The rolling thunder, like silver snakes, snaked and spread across the tower... Judging by its sheer power, anyone below the Dou Emperor would likely perish if they encountered this lightning!

"My master usually cultivates in seclusion at the top of the Myriad Thunder Pagoda. I'll go to the top to find him in a bit, so please wait for me at the bottom..."

Having reached the summit, Feng Qing'er addressed Mo Tang and the others.

Perhaps fearing that Mo Tang might misunderstand, after speaking, Feng Qing'er added a special explanation, "This Myriad Thunder Pagoda is the most important place in my Wind Thunder Pavilion!"

Even disciples of the Wind Thunder Pavilion, except for elite disciples above the Dou Emperor, are not allowed to set foot in the Myriad Thunder Pagoda. Therefore, even I cannot bring outsiders in..."

Mo Tang smiled and nodded, seemingly unconcerned about such matters.

Instead, he was now more interested in the Myriad Thunder Pagoda ... The sheer density of wind and thunder power, while vastly different from the Void Thunder Pool, meant that if he could cultivate here, even without system upgrades, his cultivation speed would definitely be fast!
