Chapter 430: Accept the Baptism of the Holy Fire

Another day passed, and the Suzaku Sect ushered in the Suzaku Holy Fire Blessing Ceremony, which is held every five years.

This ceremony is a rare event for the Suzaku Sect.

Because on this day, the Suzaku Holy Fire will baptize every member of the sect, and cast the power of the Holy Flame on the particularly outstanding disciples of the sect, that is, let them condense the Suzaku Holy Flame in their sea of ​​qi.

Tens of thousands of sect disciples gathered in the Holy Fire Square, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Dabai and the clown and other pets, because they are not disciples of the Suzaku Sect, can only take a rest in the courtyard.

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan walked side by side to the Holy Fire Square. Their arrival attracted the attention of most disciples. There was no way. An Lin's popularity was too great recently, making many disciples admire and curious about him.

"Look, that's An Lin!"

"He doesn't have three heads and six arms, and he doesn't look very imposing, but he's pretty handsome."

"You know shit! A master is one who doesn't show his imposing manner and returns to his original nature! Look at his eyes, they are as deep as the sea, and they seem to contain the myriad laws of the universe, ah... so handsome!"

"Wake up, stop being a fangirl!"

"Hmph, he's just a person who got in through connections for the power of the Holy Fire, what do you have to praise?"

"You can't say that, he's already a member of our Suzaku Sect, and he risked his life to rescue Brother Yang Yuan in Suzaku Prison as a sect disciple. If he came just for the Holy Fire, he wouldn't have to do these things."

"Yes, An Lin is doing what a sect disciple should do, so he has the right to fight for the power of the Holy Flame."

...

Amidst the heated discussions, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan came to the center of the square.

There are many elders and core disciples with strong auras here. Most of them nodded slightly when they saw An Lin, and some smiled to express their goodwill.

Xu Xiaolan looked around the square, then whispered to An Lin: "You are the one who will receive the power of the Holy Flame, go stand in the red area."

An Lin looked in the direction Xu Xiaolan pointed, and found that there were already five people standing there. Mo Hai, Shangguan Yi, Lu Jiazhi, Ji Yongfang, and Yang Yuan were all there. He and Xu Xiaolan separated and walked towards the red area.

"Haha, An Lin, you are finally here, we were just talking about you!" Mo Hai saw An Lin, with a hearty smile on his face, and took the initiative to greet him.

An Lin smiled and said, "Are you talking about how majestic and domineering I am when I fight?"

Mo Hai and Lu Jiazhi rolled their eyes when they heard this, and Shangguan Yi couldn't help but smile with his hands covering his mouth.

Lu Jiazhi said first: "Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi are talking about your cooking skills, saying that the dishes you cook are very delicious and are the supreme delicacies in the world. They are almost praising you to the sky. I don't believe you are that good... Otherwise, when will Brother An Lin let me see it?"

An Lin was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded and said: "Okay, the market price is 100,000 spirit stones for a pot, you prepare the money first."

Lu Jiazhi was stunned: "So the 'sky-high price' they said is true? Are you crazy, 100,000 spirit stones for a pot of food!"

"I want ten pots!" At this time, a very clear voice came.

Everyone looked at the source of the voice and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy looking at An Lin with a smile on his face.

Lu Jiazhi's face darkened slightly: "Brother Yang Yuan, even if An Lin saved your life, you can't give money so blatantly."

"I'm not giving money, I believe that the dishes An Lin cooks are worth so much money." Yang Yuan looked at An Lin deeply, and his eyes contained great trust, as if there was light.

Lu Jiazhi opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything against it.

An Lin was so moved that he almost cried. Yang Yuan was the first person who trusted his cooking skills before seeing him cook, even though he really didn't have any cooking skills.

Seeing Lu Jiazhi's frustrated look, Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi both laughed.

Ji Yongfang looked at the five people who were so harmonious, and stood aside in confusion.

What's going on? Shangguan Yi is not aloof anymore? Yang Yuan is not looking up at the sky anymore?

Hasn't An Lin just entered the sect for a few days? How come he is so familiar with these four people? Even if he is Yang Yuan's savior, he shouldn't be so familiar with them so quickly, right?

Ji Yongfang suddenly felt frustrated. Thinking back to the days when An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were in pairs in the sect, he was inexplicably angry.

Unknowingly, tens of thousands of sect disciples had gathered in the square.

The leader of the sect was not there, so the great elder of the Suzaku Sect, Chen Xinran, began to speak. He spoke more than 100,000 words at a very fast speed, but the content was engraved in everyone's mind very clearly and accurately. I won't go into detail here about what he said. I can roughly summarize it as follows:

As one of the four major sects in Jiuzhou, a super sect known throughout the continent, our Suzaku Sect is awesome! There have been many brilliant achievements in the past five years, and talented disciples have emerged in endlessly.

What the next five-year plan will look like was also described in detail, with a look into the future.

During the period, he also commended the deeds of An Lin, Mo Hai and Shangguan Yi who risked their lives to save Yang Yuan in the Suzaku Prison, and promoted the spirit of the Suzaku Soul. He hoped that everyone would learn from them, and so on.

Then came the much-anticipated Suzaku Holy Fire Blessing and Baptism Ceremony. The Suzaku Holy Fire was suspended in the sky of the square, and the pure white flame began to change, slowly turning into a white flame Suzaku.

The light of the flame became more and more dazzling, making it impossible to look directly at it, and one could only lower his head.

But a very strange warm current descended from the sky to everyone, unblocking everyone's meridians, and the flame power also slowly increased at this moment.

Everyone closed their eyes and accepted the baptism of the holy fire with a look of enjoyment.

An Lin was no exception, and felt that the flame energy in his body was slowly improving.

He secretly glanced at Shangguan Yi and found that Shangguan Yi looked at the disciples around him innocently, without any change in his expression.

Shangguan Yi found that An Lin was looking at him, his eyes moved slightly, and he whispered: "Don't you feel it either?"

An Lin shook his head: "No, I just want to see if you feel it. It's okay, senior sister, you go your way, don't care about other people's eyes."

After comforting him, he began to close his eyes and enjoy the baptism of the holy fire.

Shangguan Yi: "..."

The baptism of the holy fire lasted for a long time, and it lasted until night, when the flame in the shape of the Vermillion Bird slowly turned into an ordinary flame, suspended in the night sky.

Tens of thousands of sect disciples opened their eyes, with a sense of satisfaction and joy in their eyes.

An Lin felt that the four divine fires in his body were more solid, and the effect was no less than taking a low-grade elixir!

Although the effect of the holy fire baptism varies from person to person, this is a baptism that covers tens of thousands of people!

As the saying goes, one step ahead, every step ahead. The holy fire baptism once every five years is enough to make the disciples of the Suzaku Sect lead the disciples of other sects by a long way. This may be the foundation of a super sect.

An Lin also heard from Dabai that their Divine Beast Sect has a beast soul holy land, which is a place dedicated to providing ancient beast soul inheritance for the sect's Divine Transformation Period Yuan Beasts. Every Yuan Beast in the sect can enter the holy land to obtain inheritance, which is also one of the most important foundations of the Divine Beast Sect.

An Lin couldn't help but sigh slightly, feeling that the power of the Heavenly Court dominates the Nine Provinces, far exceeding the four major sects, and the foundation is even more terrifying. Unfortunately, many places require thorough joining the Heavenly Court and serving in the Heavenly Court before going there.

"Next is the ceremony for the sect's outstanding disciples to receive the power of the Holy Flame. Please Yang Yuan, Shangguan Yi, Lu Jiazhi, Mo Hai, Ji Yongfang, and An Lin, be ready." The voice of the great elder Chen Xinran sounded again.

An Lin's mind was lifted, and he thought to himself that finally, the most critical moment had finally arrived!
