Hanhan’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise, “It’s already so majestic, where is it not perfect?”

“Still not enough! Far from it!”

“How could that be!”

Dong Xiaoyan was very surprised, “I distinctly felt an air of natural-born heroism, that sort of domineering power emanating from the very bones, obvious at a glance, how could the power be lacking? That’s preposterous, utterly preposterous!”

Upon hearing this, Feng Yin suddenly stiffened all over.

An air of natural-born heroism, the domineering power from the bones!

Those two phrases seemed to awaken something in him.

Instantly, he fell into deep contemplation once again.

That night, Feng Yin sat cross-legged in front of his bed like he had a sudden enlightenment.

On the bed was his newlywed, delicate wife, but he just didn’t get into the bed, not the entire night.

Dong Xiaoyan saw him lost in thought and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, quietly falling asleep.

…

That night.

Qing Ming Dazun organized a group entirely composed of high-grade cultivators at the Transformation Rainbow level, who quietly entered Zichen Lake.

Each person exerted their full strength, wrapping their True Spirit Fire around their bodies, ready to release and burn at any moment.

Although it was now roughly confirmed that the True Spirit Fire had a high lethality against the white mist, an on-site experiment was still needed.

As for letting the younger disciples venture inside, Qing Ming Dazun was certainly not at ease.

And with a group composed entirely of Nine Colors level high cultivators attempting it, even if there were uncertainties, not all would perish inside.

Not to mention, the collective action and mutual support would make the endeavor foolproof.

The group proceeded swiftly and quietly submerged into the territory of Zichen Lake. The point where they entered was naturally one of the few spots without white mist, but not far into the lake, they already felt the encroachment of malicious spirits.

At this moment, they were still scattered and not very numerous.

Seeing the opportunity was right, they suddenly unleashed their True Spirit Flames en masse, each targeting and incinerating their designated malicious spirits.

Following this incineration, their eyes shone with excitement.

Indeed, as everyone had predicted, this targeted burning method didn’t seem to destroy many malicious spirits, but the slight and gradual improvement in their cultivation was real, albeit very slight!

If one’s entire cultivation could be likened to all the body hair and hair on the head and other… ahem, that kind of hair, then burning one malicious spirit in this way was akin to increasing about one percent of a strand of body hair, or maybe even less.

But it was still progress, tangible progress!

The group’s adventure into Zichen Lake had the goal of confirming the lethality of True Spirit Flames against malicious spirits and, more importantly, to verify whether the elimination of these spirits indeed resulted in an enhancement to their own cultivation and bodily strength!

Now that this was confirmed, wasn’t it a cause for great joy?

Considering the sheer number of evil spirits within Zichen Lake, a conservative estimate was that there were billions, unstoppable in number!

While their hearts were blooming with joy, they didn’t slack off, releasing, burning, and obtaining benefits together in stealthy delight.

After all, acting as a group, they were all peak figures of the current era, and with their bodies wrapped in True Spirit Flames, even if one evil spirit slipped through, there would be no gap for it to exploit!

After a good while, the group had ventured deep into the lake. On Qing Ming Dazun’s command, while they still had some strength left, they retreated together.

Having confirmed the two experimental outcomes today was already a significant gain. There was plenty of time in the future, so why rush for short-term gains?

They were all seasoned veterans, how could they not understand Qing Ming Dazun’s profound insight and long-term planning? They all moved in unison, leaving the waters of Zichen Lake!

The fact was that wrapping oneself in True Spirit Flames for an extended period, leaving no gaps and continuously outputting to incinerate malicious spirits, was something only great beings like Qing Ming Dazun with slightly inferior cultivation could not sustain!

Indeed, this event also confirmed that apart from special times, circumstances, and events, True Spirit Flames were seriously of little use and consumed a lot!

As the group withdrew, the center of the lake erupted in angry billows of mist, as if the hidden entity within was furious.

“Come in! Why won’t you come in?”

The entity in the lake bellowed angrily.

After such a long lure, these guys actually retreated again.

Wasn’t it all for nothing?

The crowd lept out of the water with a swoosh, each with a face full of triumph and vigor.

“Thrilling!”

“Definitely thrilling, I’ve gained some strength, a clear gain, a gain I’ve missed for so long!”

“Me too.”

“I probably incinerated millions of malicious spirits, right? Too bad, they weren’t very dense today.”

“Yes, that’s a bit regrettable. If they were swarming all around us, each of us could have burned billions today.”

Everyone discussed and analyzed excitedly, but Qing Ming and Dong Pingjiang wore rather unpleasant expressions on their faces.

“True Spirit Fire is indeed effective, which is extremely good news, but let’s not be blindly optimistic, the situation is not as optimistic as we imagine,” said Qing Ming Dazun.

“Yes, with our strength, fully activating True Spirit Fire didn’t even get us to the middle of the lake. The malicious spirits we encountered tonight were not very dense. If there was an extremely dense situation, our progress would be even slower,” Dong Pingjiang frowned.

“If we speed up the activation, perhaps we could reach it. But that would undoubtedly consume more of our vital energy. By the time we reached the middle of the lake, our ability to sustain combat output would be severely limited,” Qing Ming added.
