"What are we guarding this place from, who would dare attack the Ming Clan?" mumbled a newly arrived Ming Clan guard as he looked at the secret realm in front of them,

"Don't worry kid, nothing has ever happened in the years I have been here, you have nothing to fear," said a much older guard as he patted the shoulder of the young guard and dragged him to the group.

"Don't be scared kiddo, nothing will happen, this is probably the safest position in the entirety of the clan," said another guard as the rest of the group let out a laugh.

"Then what is this weird feeling," thought the young guard as he suddenly felt a chill in his heart for some reason.

"Can you take over my post for a minute, I need to go relieve myself," said the young guard as he approached an older guard that was just walking by.

"Fine, but come back fast, I want to go to sleep," said the older guard as he impatiently waved his hand.

After this, the young guard began walking into a bush, before starting to run as fast as he can, completely uncaring about the fact that the Ming Clan could track him down.

Even as he ran further and further away, a feeling of dread began filling the young guard's eyes.

"I Chun Feng will not die here," said Chun Feng as he somehow managed to increase his speed far above what he could usually do.

...

"Does that kid have a problem with his bladder," mumbled the older guard, not even taking the chance that Chu Feng had betrayed them into consideration, as the kid had no reason to.

Suddenly, without any warning, the barrier protecting the Secret realm started fluctuating.

Immediately after that, the older guard took out a token from his spatial bag and crushed it.

"Why am I so unlucky," mumbled the older guard as he went to alert the other guards.

...

"Finally getting nervous," mumbled Ming Ling as he looked at the fluctuating formation with a smile on his face.

Soon after, several other members of the Ming Clan appeared next to Ming Ling and began looking the at the formation.

Without any hint or warning, the formation then disappeared.

"Something wrong," mumbled Ming Ling, when suddenly, a beautiful woman appeared in the sky in front of them.

Without saying anything, Ming Ling activated several formations that were previously placed here by the clan, and together with the three other Minor Trancendance cultivators and other clan members surrounded the woman.

"Ye Feng, although you have reached the Minor Trancendace Realm, the might of the Ming clan is not something you can challenge, if you surrender now the clan will be lenient to you and yo-"

Halfway through his speech, Ming Ling suddenly stopped talking, his body, alongside the bodies of the other Ming clan cultivators suddenly began burning, thankfully for them, they had only burned for a few moments before turning into ash alongside all of the formations and treasures surrounding her.

After a few moments, Ye Feng looked down at the cultivators that the Ming clan hired to watch over the formation and waved her hand, causing them to be erased from existence.

After this, Ye Feng looked into the distance and saw a cultivator had already run away some time ago, upon noticing that he was not from the Ming Clan, she did not bother giving chase.

"Hmm, safe, then I will go after the Ming Clan first," mumbled Ye Feng as she began flying in a certain direction.

...

As he continued running, Chu Feng suddenly felt the chill in his heart disappear as something seemingly looked at him for a moment.

"I need to go away from the area controlled by the Ming Clan," mumbled Chu Feng, unaware of the fact that the Ming Clan had a bigger problem on their hands at the moment.

...

A long time ago,

"Have I succeded?" asked Ye Feng as she wondered if her score in the trial was high enough.

"Normally not, but based on your injuries and your young age, your score is more than enough to pass the trial," said a little bird that appeared on Ye Feng's shoulder.

As soon as the bird said that, a drop of blood appeared in front of Ye Feng alongside a jade slip.

"You should take it, if not for the fact that the secret realm was suppressing your injuries, you would have already died, you don't want your injuries to cause you any problems with your future cultivation do you?" asked the bird as it looked at Ye Feng.

Without hesitating any longer, Ye Feng swallowed the drop of blood.

"Umm, the willpower is enough," mumbled the bird as she watched as flames began engulfing Ye Feng.

Suddenly, two orange flaming wings suddenly sprouted from Ye Feng's back, causing flesh, blood and bones to be sent flying from it.

As soon as that happened, the flames seemed to sink into the place where Ye Feng's flesh once stood, replacing it.

"What a pity, to reach this state with only one drop of essence blood, if only my main body was still alive, this little girl maybe could have achieved bloodline ativism," mumbled the bird as it watched Ye Feng begin to peacefully sleep in a ball of fire, causing a shocked expression to appear on it's face.

"Was this little girl a Pheonix in it's past life?" mumbled the little bird as it watched Ye Feng with amazed eyes.

Suddenly determination filled the bird's eyes.

"Goodbye little girl," mumbled the bird as all of its body and soul transformed itself into a golden drop of blood before flying into Ye Feng.

A few minutes after that happened, a sad Pheonix cry somehow came out of Ye Feng's human mouth, this was the last thing that happened before Ye Feng began her final transformation into a small bird.

"Goodbye old bird," thought Ye Feng before both her body and soul transformed into flames.
