Chapter 2366: The Astonishing Divine Phoenix Maiden of Yue Tong City
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan had initially thought that her Turtle Aura Heavenly God Technique was at a stage of perfection. As long as she remained silent, no one would be able to detect her presence. Unexpectedly, however, An Lin had been aware of her presence all this time!
He truly showed great care toward his underlings.
However, Heavenly Goddess Wu Lan hoped that his care toward her wouldn’t transform into a desire to turn her into a battery. She truly didn’t want to become a battery for her boss.
Fortunately, An Lin was only using her as an example. He didn’t actually want to do anything untoward. After saying this, he immediately turned around to educate Underling Lan.
Lan Xiaoni also felt that An Lin’s words made sense. If he wanted to sacrifice someone, he would sacrifice that young turtle woman first. She held a fairly high position in Big Boss An Lin’s mind.
Upon thinking of this, the mermaid couldn’t help but smile.
“Alright, then Underling Lan will listen to Big Boss An Lin,” Lan Xiaoni said with a glimmer in her eyes.
“But… the problem still remains. What should we do now?” Lan Xiaoni asked as she gazed at the expanse of light in the east. Her expression became one of extreme anxiousness.
An Lin didn’t look toward the east. Instead, he looked toward the north. He suddenly smiled, saying, “We… still have a top-notch helper. They’re coming over now.”
“Top-notch helper?” Following An Lin’s gaze, Lan Xiaoni also looked toward the north.
Beyond the White Nectar Sea.
This was a colossal and magnificent city.
A peculiar light suddenly rose before releasing an iridescent aura that surged hundreds of thousands of feet into the surroundings!
The five-colored iridescent aura intertwined with itself, forming a gigantic totem that covered half of Yue Tong City. Just the wingspan of this totem alone measured thirty million feet in length!
This was none other than a totem of a soaring five-colored Vermilion Bird, the most powerful Vermilion Bird of the Four Holy Beasts!
Squawk…!
The crisp cry of the Vermilion Bird soared through the heavens!
Tens of millions of members of the Heaven Crushing Sect all turned their gazes toward the colossal city. There was astonishment on their faces.
“Another powerful being is about to appear?”

“The aura of the Vermilion Bird is so terrifying… Could it be…”
“There’s no mistake, it’s the Divine Phoenix Maiden who hasn’t appeared until now!”
Just as they finished speaking…
A five-colored Vermilion Bird soared above Yue Tong City. Like a phoenix that had been resting on a Wutong tree, it suddenly spread its wings and soared into the sky. Its body radiated with dazzling divine light that was even brighter than the sun, and these were colors that were so beautiful that they would cause one to become intoxicated.
This was the ignition of hope.
This was the radiance of a new dawn.
The Vermilion Bird extended its wings and soared into the heavens!
Here, there were a coiling Azure Dragon, lush greenery, and pools of essences.
The Vermilion Bird directly crashed into the Azure Dragon.
Boom!
There was an earth-shattering collision, and beams of light pierced through the sky.
Countless matters and nomological laws were instantly birthed into the world!
The collision between the Vermilion Bird and the Azure Dragon…
Opening the heavens!
At this instant, everyone in the Tai Chu Continent and everyone in the boundless Realm of Stars saw the fusion between a Vermilion Bird and an Azure Dragon.
The projection of a coiling Azure Dragon and a soaring Vermilion Bird appeared before all of them. This was like a majestic moment that was being carved into the history of the universe.
Limitless Dao Realm!
This was a feat of Opening the Heavens. This was a feat with no precedence.
Dual Opening the Heavens!
In fact, this phenomenon even triggered the resonance of the entire universe!
Everyone in the universe was stunned.
A piece of information appeared in all of their minds.
Tai Chu Continent,
The Divine Phoenix Maiden had opened the heavens and advanced to the God of Creation Stage by reaching the Dao Integration Pinnacle Stage for both the Dao of Vermilion Birds and the Dao of Azure Dragons. She had been bestowed the title of the Only Dual Essence God of Creation Stage Divine Being!
This was the great will of the universe recognizing the birth of a new God of Creation Stage divine being.
However, the scale and magnitude of this recognition stunned everyone in the universe.
When Patriarch Zhu Yin had recovered his cultivation base as a God of Creation Stage divine being, the phenomenon of heaven and earth had only covered the area of the Opposite Shore Realm. Now that Xu Xiaolan had reached the God of Creation Stage, the phenomenon that she triggered affected the entire universe!

By looking at this huge gulf, one could imagine just how freakishly powerful Xu Xiaolan was!
The disciples of the Four Nine Immortal Sect were all beside themselves with joy.
Their stand-in Sect Leader was extremely powerful and impressive. This was a f*cking universe-wide announcement! The only dual essence God of Creation Stage divine being! This was far too freakish!
Everyone in the Four Nine Immortal Sect felt a sense of pride and honor.
In fact, everyone in the Heaven Crushing Sect was also filled with excitement and delight.
Beside a charred black divine tree, Zhu Xuze raised his head to gaze at the Vermilion Bird and Azure Dragon in the sky. His eyes reddened, and he murmured, “Yishuang… Guanyun… do you see? This is your daughter… She’s already become this powerful and dazzling…”
To say nothing of Zhu Yishuang and Xu Guanyun, even Zhu Xuze, who had watched Xu Xiaolan grow up, wouldn’t have dreamed about her becoming so powerful in just one hundred short years. That gentle and adorable girl had already grown up to become the Divine Phoenix Maiden, a powerful being that everyone in the universe had to look up to…
Her experiences, her opportunities, and her achievements were already beyond astounding. In fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call her a Holy Daughter of the Heavens…
Tina, Shangguan Yi, Patriarch Zhu Yin, Liu Jin, and the other God of Creation Stage divine beings couldn’t help but look toward Yue Tong City.
They couldn’t help it. After all, this scene was far too stunning.
Even God of Creation Stage divine beings were deeply shocked.
Everyone focused on cultivating a single essential power to reach the God of Creation Stage. However, Xu Xiaolan had actually cultivated two different essential powers! She was someone who had created f*cking history!
A wisp of jade appeared in the sky above Yue Tong City. Both the Vermilion Bird and the Azure Dragon in the sky bowed down at her. They then transformed into the purest of Dao as they fused into the area between her brows.
At the same time, an orb of chaos that contained an expanse of heaven and earth within it also fused into her sea of vital energy, allowing her aura to undergo a profound transformation.
Her silky hair flowed in the wind, and her jade garment billowed with the breeze.
At this moment, she opened her gentle and lively eyes. It was as if there were an Azure Dragon riding the clouds in her left eye, and it was as if there were a soaring Vermilion Bird in her right eye. Her aura was transcendent and ethereal, and her appearance was breathtaking and intoxicating.
She was clearly standing far, far away from everyone in the universe, yet at this moment, it was as if she were standing right before them. Everyone was transfixed by her stunning beauty.
This kind of beauty was already beyond possessing an exquisite and flawless appearance. Of course, she naturally possessed these qualities as well. However, her beauty was more aligned with the beauty of Dao. This was a beauty that pertained to one’s aura and realm.
The vitality of the Azure Dragon was limitless, and it breathed life into all matter.
The nobility and holiness of the Vermilion Bird were unrivaled, and its existence was transcendent and ethereal.
Two starkly different auras, both of which were top-notch in the universe, flawlessly materialized themselves on the same person. This allowed her to obtain an indescribable beauty.
Even An Lin was intoxicated by her appearance.
The cry of a Vermilion Bird echoed above Yue Tong City.
A woman in azure revealed her beauty!
“My Xiaolan…
“Is actually this beautiful!”
An Lin murmured to himself.
Lan Xiaoni couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
You’re already Dao partners, yet you’re still wearing an expression of such helpless obsession.
Big Boss An Lin, can you please maintain your demeanor as a mighty being?
As if sensing his gaze, the woman in the distance, the woman who was the center of attention of the entire universe, turned her gaze toward An Lin.
At this moment, it was as if their gazes were locked together.
A mesmerizing smile spread across the woman’s face. She was clearly a divine woman who was as noble and holy as the heavens, yet at this moment, she was actually wearing the delighted smile of a slightly guilty girl.
“An Lin… I’m so sorry…” she said softly.. “I took so long to advance, and I left you to battle by yourself for so long… I’ve returned now, and I’m coming over to help you!”

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

For now i will publish small chapters for i am not very confident in this, but as i write more and gain some experience i will release longer and better ones. Also English isn't my mother language so any advice or correction is welcomed.
