Just as everyone was waiting with bated breath, the giant bird chirped loudly and flapped its strong wings, ready to fly into the blue sky... Yueying clenched her fists in excitement: "Now! Ride on the Phoenix's back!"

Lin Feng climbed up first, then stretched out his hand to pull Lily up. Just as Chen Le was about to climb up, Ying Ye Ren suddenly stopped him and said, "You stay here to help protect this place, I will go with them to solve the problem."

Although he was a little surprised, Chen Le still nodded and accepted the arrangement. He turned around and cast a trusting look at Yueying: "I'll take care of everything. I will protect this place."

As the phoenix spread its wings and flew away, only a ball of light remained on the earth that was gradually moving away behind it... and the mysterious woman who was watching the whole process from a distance silently revealed a barely perceptible smile: It seems that the plan is going smoothly, what should we do next?

When the three of them flew to their destination on the Phoenix, Lin Feng asked, "Where are we going next?"

Lily looked at the compass in her hand and said, "We need to get to the abyss canyon where Karina is hiding."

At this time, Ying Yeren, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "That place is extremely dangerous, you must be careful."

While they were discussing countermeasures, the old witch Karina, who was in a secret place, was trying to suppress the spread of the poison in her body, with beads of sweat oozing from her forehead...

At this moment, all the gears of fate have quietly turned, waiting for the arrival of the final decisive battle.
As the phoenix drew a graceful arc in the sky, Lin Feng, Lily and Ying Yeren gradually moved away from the mysterious palace. The morning light gradually appeared on the horizon, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the three of them, bringing an indescribable warmth and hope.

"The abyss canyon ahead is where Karina is hiding." Lily pointed to the distance, her voice firm and clear, "As long as we can destroy the source of darkness, we can end this endless struggle."

"Yes." Lin Feng nodded, his eyes full of determination, "No matter what is waiting for us ahead, we must go all out."

Suddenly, a strong energy wave came from a distance, and the three of them felt this strange power. "This is..." Lily said in surprise, and circles of ripples appeared on her crystal ball.

Then, four dazzling lights suddenly appeared around them. A golden figure appeared first. It was a huge dragon, majestic and sacred. "I am the Dragon of the East, with endless vitality and power." It spoke, and its voice was as deafening as thunder. "Whoever can gain my recognition will gain the most powerful power in the world."

Then, a huge blue whale leaped from the sea, its body flashing a deep blue light. "I come from the western seas and control all the secrets and wisdom of the ocean." It said gently, "Follow me, and you will become unstoppable."

Then a firebird with gorgeous feathers flew from the south, its body burning with flames, lighting up the entire sky. "I am the Southern Firebird, in charge of all flames and passions," it shouted proudly, "Whoever dares to accept my test will become unrivaled."

Finally, a huge snow-white ice bear appeared in the north, and the cold breath hit us. "The Arctic ice bear is here! Whoever can survive in the ice and snow world will be the embodiment of tenacity and cold resistance." Its deep and powerful voice seemed to be able to freeze everything.

Facing the sudden appearance of the four divine beasts, Lin Feng and the others could not help but become nervous. "What... do you want to do?" Lin Feng asked tentatively.

"We need to choose an apprentice." The Golden Dragon said first, "but only the most outstanding ones can win our favor. We will have a competition, and the winner will become our apprentice and gain our inherited power."

Lily frowned: "But we don't have time to waste on such a fight now. We need to go to where Karina is hiding as soon as possible."

"That's right." Chen Le also added, "And we are not just fighting for ourselves, we also shoulder a more important mission."

The four beasts looked at each other. It was obvious that they had not expected to meet such a responsible young man. "Very good, we will give you a chance." The golden dragon said slowly, "If you can prove your strength in the next challenge, we will do our best to help you fight against Karina."

So, the four of them began to prepare for the battle. Lin Feng clenched the sword in his hand, and a fearless determination ignited in his heart. "No matter what, we must win!" he declared loudly.

The competition began, and the first was a test of the golden dragon's strength. It opened its huge mouth and spit out a ball of extremely hot energy, which flew directly towards Lin Feng. However, the latter did not retreat at all. He stood firmly and shouted, "Cut it all off!" He swung his sword and chopped at the ball of flame...

On the other side, Chen Le and the Firebird were not far behind. The opponent kept spitting out scorching flames, but the former cleverly avoided every attack with his nimble footsteps and quick movements, and even occasionally launched a counterattack; as for Lily, she was arranged to have a battle of wits with the Blue Whale - she had to solve the many puzzles set by the opponent to pass the level. Although the process was difficult, she also showed a good performance...

Finally, after a series of arduous efforts, when everyone passed their respective levels, the four powerful creatures were finally convinced. "It seems that we have found the right person," they nodded in approval, "We are willing to join this adventure and contribute to justice."

At this moment, the sky lit up again with a more dazzling light, and all participants were enveloped in this light and accepted the inheritance ceremony: everyone gained corresponding special abilities according to their own characteristics - for example, Lin Feng became stronger and faster than before, and Lily gained a sharper intuition and healing skills, etc.

After completing the inheritance, they decided to set off immediately to where Karina was. "We must stop her conspiracy no matter what," Chen Le said; "That's right," Lin Feng responded, "and this time we are not fighting alone!"

Everyone worked together to ride on the back of the phoenix towards their goal. Although they encountered various obstacles along the way, they were successfully resolved with their new abilities and tacit cooperation...

"We're almost there." Shadow Nightblade said thoughtfully as he looked into the distance. "Yes." Lily confirmed, "Be prepared, the final battle is about to begin."

Just as everyone was ready to go, suddenly a cold and sharp laugh pierced the sky...

"Oh, you actually found this place? That's good, I was just worried about having no opponent to practice with..." Karina appeared in front of him with a wicked smile...

"You are really a bunch of troublesome little brats." Kalina sneered. Her body was surrounded by a dark halo, as if the whole world was shrouded in an invisible pressure. "But I won't let you succeed so easily!"

There was an unsettling atmosphere in the air around them. The clear sky suddenly became overcast and the wind blew. Lin Feng clenched the sword in his hand, feeling the new power surge. "We are no longer the same as before!" he shouted, "I will never let you escape this time."

At this moment, a group of people passing by for exploration also noticed this scene. One of the young men pointed to the sky and exclaimed: "Look what that is? Could it be the four legendary sacred beasts appearing?" The people around them looked up in surprise, and saw the brilliant light in the sky and the huge figure standing not far away. They couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.

"It's really them! It is said that anyone who is recognized by the four divine beasts will be a hero who changes the world..." another person responded in a low voice. Soon the news spread around the area, and many people stopped what they were doing and came to watch this unprecedented contest.

"Oh my, I didn't expect to be able to witness history with my own eyes today!" A gray-haired old man sighed, "I really hope that when we were young, we had the opportunity to do such thrilling things..."

At this time, the atmosphere on the battlefield became more and more tense. Lily closed her eyes, recited a spell, and then suddenly opened her eyes: "Are you ready to welcome the power of light?" She waved her hands, and healing rays of light were projected towards her teammates. At the same time, several fireballs hit the target, causing the opponent to retreat several steps.

"Hmph, you are so arrogant!" The old witch was obviously a little angry. "I want to see who can stop my ambition." Before she finished speaking, she raised her staff and smashed it against the ground - the ground trembled instantly, and cracks spread...

"Oops, this move is unusual!" The experienced Shadow Night Blade immediately became alert, "Everyone quickly disperse and hide, don't let her have the chance to use her mass destruction skills!"

The three of them acted quickly and found their own hidden locations according to the plan. Sure enough, a large number of black tentacles emerged from the depths of the ground and spread out in all directions, forming an airtight net in the air in an attempt to trap all moving objects; and the onlookers were frightened by this sudden change and didn't know what to do...

However, when everyone thought that the winner was about to be decided, the phoenix suddenly let out a loud cry and soared into the sky. Immediately afterwards, four kinds of energy flows, golden, blue, red and white, converged together to form a dazzling ball of light that shot straight in the direction of the old witch Kalina... "No——" As screams rang out, the darkness gradually dissipated.

Just as people were cheering, suddenly a strange echo came from the distant mountains: "Hahahaha, this is great!" The mysterious woman's voice appeared in the air again, "This is just the beginning, please keep up the hard work~" and then there was no sound.

"Who is she? How does she know what happened here?" The same question flashed through everyone's mind.

"No matter what, we must find and stop the manipulator behind the scenes as soon as possible!" Lin Feng said decisively.

Lily nodded in agreement: "Well, I hope we can find out the truth in time."

After a short rest, Lin Feng and the others began their journey to Lingxi Sect. They all knew that this martial arts competition was not only an opportunity to show themselves, but also an important moment to collect information and make allies.

"I heard that the Lingxi Sect holds a martial arts contest for disciples every five years, which brings together heroes from all walks of life," Chen Le said excitedly, "If we can stand out on such a big stage, we might be able to get more clues."

Lily nodded gently, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and yearning for the unknown world. "And I heard there are many books and ancient secrets there. Maybe we can find more clues about the mysterious woman."

Ying Yeren remained silent, but the firmness in his eyes made everyone feel his determination. The phoenix flapped its wings and flew high, drawing a beautiful arc in the sky.

A few days later, when everyone finally arrived at the mountain range where Lingxi Sect was located, they saw a magnificent and spectacular building complex standing in front of them surrounded by mountains - that was the famous Lingxi Sect headquarters. From a distance, they could see three powerful characters written in vermilion on the doorplate: Lingxi Sect!
Passing through the layers of clouds and mist, the group slowly landed in the center of the square, immediately attracting the attention of countless monks around them. "Are they... the heroes recognized by the four legendary beasts?" A young man whispered to his friend next to him.

Before the other party could answer, an elder came forward to greet them and led several important people to welcome them. "It's an honor for you to be here!" The old man's kind smile was as warm as a spring breeze, and then he introduced the next competition process and some matters that needed attention.

As the day of the competition approached, a strong competitive atmosphere spread throughout the Lingxi Sect. Although the competition between different forces and even races was quite fierce, the four of them still performed well with their tacit cooperation and easily defeated many strong opponents in the preliminaries.

One morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the training ground, Lily had already started her daily meditation practice. Just as she was about to enter a deep state of meditation, a voice suddenly broke the silence: "Hey, isn't this the little girl who defeated several opponents a few days ago?"

When I came to my senses, I saw a pretty but arrogant girl standing opposite me. "I'm Bai Wanrou, the daughter of the head of the Qinglian Sword Sect. I came to see you because I heard you have some abilities," she said calmly, "How about it, do you dare to spar with me? I'm bored anyway."

Hearing this, the others who were walking nearby stopped and gathered around. "Humph, I'm afraid some people only rely on talking." Chen Le laughed contemptuously, "Lili, teach her a lesson!" (End of this chapter)
