Chapter 581: 319 Returning to Truth_2

"Sect Master, save me!"

The Vermilion Bird Peak Master flew out recklessly, emitting a piercing scream.

He felt death was imminent and that he was about to be killed.

Then, he did indeed escape outside the Five Elements Extreme Formation.

The Yang Divine faded and weakened, shrinking to the size of a baby and collapsing onto the ground, unable to even move an inch.

Since the beginning of his path, the Vermilion Bird Peak Master had never been in such a tragic state.

The Xuanwu Sect Master arrived by his side, followed closely by the Azure Dragon Peak Master.

At this very moment!

The face of the Azure Dragon Peak Master was filled with an unparalleled shock, even with a trace of sheer terror.

The Vermilion Bird Peak Master’s Yang Divine lifted its head, looking towards the inside of the Five Elements Extreme Formation.

He saw Fang Zhixing lying on the ground, within a pool of blood, unconscious.

The Vermilion Bird Dharma Body ceased to exist, only a pool of flesh remained, as if it had been chopped by thousands of swords.

As for the "Sword Mountain and Fire Sea" he had seen just before, there was no trace of it, as if it had never appeared.

But the fear in the heart of the Vermilion Bird Peak Master told him that everything was real.

He almost died in the Sword Mountain and Fire Sea.

"Alas, both parties are injured."

The Xuanwu Sect Master sighed softly.

The winner had been decided!

This battle ended with the Vermilion Bird Peak Master escaping the Five Elements Extreme Formation and losing.

This battle, Fang Zhixing won!

This battle, the Vermilion Bird Dharma Body was destroyed, and the Vermilion Bird Peak Master’s Yang Divine was severely damaged, causing his Realm to fall drastically.

This battle, Fang Zhixing’s whole body was broken and his flesh was mutilated, too horrible to endure, and he lay unconscious for a day and a night.

...

...

Time passed, unknowable how long!

Fang Zhixing opened his eyes, waking up from endless darkness.

He first felt cold, a chill coming from deep within his soul, making him shudder involuntarily.

Fortunately, after he circulated his energy, his body quickly recovered, dispersing the chill.

Fang Zhixing took a deep breath of air, sitting up.

This movement was significant, Fang Zhixing just felt exhausted, like the exhaustion from three continuous days of exams, both physically and mentally tired, unwilling to move at all.

"Damn, you’re finally awake!"

Xigou suddenly jumped up, perching on the headboard, his tongue sticking out and panting continuously.

Fang Zhixing’s head felt swollen, dizzy, his memory a blur.

His mouth dry, he vaguely asked, "What happened?"

"I wanted to ask you that!"

Xigou spoke with disbelief, shockingly saying, "You were freaking incredible, you almost killed the Vermilion Bird Peak Master."

"Vermilion Bird Peak Master..."

Fang Zhixing furrowed his brow, unable to recall at all.

All he remembered was getting a flash of inspiration from the Vermilion Bird Peak Master’s technique "Sword Mountain and Sword Tree," which led him to understand something profound.

Then...

There was nothing!

Fang Zhixing quickly looked towards the System Panel.

[Burst Skill: Sword Mountain and Fire Sea (Lv6)]

[Burst Skill: Blood Dripper (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: Demon Blood Vajra Palm (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: Mad Blood Sword Gang (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: Blood Lotus Blossom (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: All Rivers Return to Sea (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: Heart Demon Flame (Lv5)]

[Burst Skill: Inverting Yin Yang (Lv5)]

[Divine Skills: Five Elements Undying]

[Divine Skills: Tyrant Emerges]

"Sixth Level Burst Skills!"

Fang Zhixing was deeply moved; he seemed to have inadvertently created an extremely formidable technique.

However, this Sixth Level Burst Skill was too advanced.

When Fang Zhixing executed it, his body endured a great burden, causing him to sustain serious injuries.

It was truly a case of injuring the enemy a thousand and self eight hundred!

Setting aside these considerations, Fang Zhixing was in a great mood, immediately touching his travel bag.

"Reset!"

A Second Level arrow was synthesized.

The System Panel flashed brightly.

Yet Fang Zhixing was stunned, blinked his eyes, and still felt incredibly exhausted.

"What’s going on, has my body not reset?"

Fang Zhixing’s expression darkened as he tried to merge several times, each attempt yielding the same result.

The special reset effect on his body had disappeared!

Seeing this, Xigou couldn’t help but remind him, "I’ve always felt that there’s a limit to using the system reset bug. You have become so powerful that it’s impossible to reset now."

Fang Zhixing pondered briefly, then set aside his pack and sat down cross-legged to cultivate and heal.

Half a day passed in a flash!

Fang Zhixing had recovered to three or four-tenths of his strength, the slow progress was infuriating.

He walked out of his room and made his way outside the cave abode.

The Sect Master Xuanwu was still lying in front of the waterfall, meditating with closed eyes like a statue.

Fang Zhixing bowed and said, "Sect Master."

Sect Master Xuanwu opened his eyes and smiled, "How do you feel?"

Fang Zhixing replied with a bitter smile, "It’s been terribly uncomfortable. Does the Sect Master know what happened to me?"

Sect Master Xuanwu pondered and said, "You made a breakthrough during the battle, your spirit briefly touched the ’Returning to Truth’ Realm, causing your body to collapse."

He sighed, "If you weren’t an Undying, you would have been disabled by now."

"Returning to Truth!!"

Fang Zhixing’s face changed colors as he couldn’t help but think carefully.

Unfortunately, he still couldn’t recall anything.

"Don’t force yourself."

Sect Master Xuanwu smiled, "As long as you continue to cultivate, sooner or later, you will enter the Returning to Truth Realm again."

Realization dawned on Fang Zhixing, and he asked thoughtfully, "How is the Peak Master of Vermilion Bird doing?"

Sect Master Xuanwu sighed, "In this battle, the winner does not know how they won, and the loser does not know how they lost."

"Indeed, it was all very confusing," Fang Zhixing shrugged, his feelings complex.

Sect Master Xuanwu slowly said, "Honestly, you have grown too fast. In my estimation, you and the Peak Master of Vermilion Bird should have fought three rounds, settling for a draw. But you had an epiphany in the second round, changing everything."

Fang Zhixing humbly said, "It was just a stroke of luck."

Sect Master Xuanwu replied, "I suggest you take it slow, settle down, maybe, take a trip to clear your mind, how about that?"

Fang Zhixing answered promptly, "I will follow the Sect Master’s arrangements."

Sect Master Xuanwu opened his mouth and expelled a golden invitation, which flew into Fang Zhixing’s hands.

Fang Zhixing looked at it and exclaimed, "An invitation from Wanfa Temple!"

Sect Master Xuanwu nodded, "Buddhism is increasingly flourishing under the Emperor’s patronage, in its prime. Wanfa Temple, as the leader of Buddhist sects, has long wanted to host a grand monastery event to showcase martial virtue and promote Buddhist teachings to the whole world."

Fang Zhixing quickly understood.

Sect Master Xuanwu added, "This event will surely gather heroes from across the land, a great many outstanding figures all in one place; it’s indeed a good opportunity for practice."

Fang Zhixing thought it over and agreed, "How many people are going?"

Sect Master Xuanwu responded, "You will represent the Five Elements Sect, it’s up to you whom you bring along."

Fang Zhixing understood.

At that moment, Sect Master Xuanwu expelled three scrolls, carefully adding, "These are three other secret techniques, take them and see."

Fang Zhixing caught them with great excitement.

Giant Stone Secret Technique, Falling Leaves Secret Technique, Golden Secret Technique!

All Five Elements Secret Techniques were in his hands!

Fang Zhixing solemnly said, "Thank you, Sect Master, for these treasured gifts."

Sect Master Xuanwu nodded slightly and slowly closed his eyes, "The monastery event held by Wanfa Temple will take place in Qian State, go early and return early."

Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrow and turned to leave.

He immediately rushed to "One Year Grotto Heaven," planning to take Jun Yao with him.

Unfortunately, Jun Yao was still in closed-door cultivation.

The Azure Dragon Peak Master’s Yang Divine avatar told him that refining the Five Elements Yin Yang Fruit would take at least fifty years.

This meant that Fang Zhixing would have to wait outside for over forty days.

This timeline, however, meant missing the monastery event.

"Never mind, I’ll go alone."

Fang Zhixing was not close with the other members of the Five Elements Sect and had no interest in teaming up with strangers.

"Xigou, let’s go!"

Fang Zhixing mounted Xigou.

Xigou raised his head, spirited, and burst forth at a gallop, as fast as the wind.

The man and his dog swiftly left the Five Elements Mountain Range, shrinking into a dot before disappearing into the horizon.

"Finally, he’s gone..."

The Azure Dragon Peak Master stood on the mountain summit, watching Fang Zhixing leave, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Let this troublemaker go disturb the Buddhists then," whispered the Azure Dragon Peak Master to himself.

...

...

Xigou ran tirelessly, covering three thousand miles a day with ease, a perfect means of transportation.

Along the way, Fang Zhixing focused solely on cultivating and healing, gradually regaining his strength.

Several days later, they left Dai State quietly and without incident.
