I can return to the age of mysterious
Chapter 1280 - 1280 640 increases again surging mighty power

Chapter 1280: 640 increases again, surging mighty power (4300)_2 Chapter 1280: 640 increases again, surging mighty power (4300)_2 He muttered to himself. His mood was not at all gloomy; on the contrary, it was exceptionally fervent and expectant. Originally, Casio was already the number one below perfection before this increase, and now, with an improvement of nearly sixty percent, he still hadn’t reached that level of combat power, one might expect him to be disheartened. However, everything can be seen from a different angle, as Casio was simultaneously cultivating three Boxing Methods.

The Southern Dipper Three Fist, if he completely mastered all of them, would mean three dramatic increases! It would boost his own strength to unimaginable levels!

Therefore, not achieving the Perfect Combat Power with this improvement did not worry but rather thrilled Casio. The more he could feel the huge and difficult span between perfection and imperfection now, the more exaggerated the enhancement would be when he perfected all three fists, and the higher the limit. This is the mindset a true powerhouse should have.

Always look forward, always passionate, always maintaining abundant ambition…

With a whoosh, the Gale stirred above the Earth, lifting the corners of clothing wave after wave.

Casio’s black Trench Coat rustled in the wind.

The collar of the Blood Vulture Dominant Fist’s coarse cloth clothing was also shaking.

“Let’s go, Blood Vulture, it’s time to begin the Immortal Ascetic training…” Looking up at the moon overhead that had returned to normal but still appeared somewhat dim, Casio said.

“From now on, I will do whatever you say.”

The Blood Vulture Dominant Fist said in a deep voice, showing absolute support.

In the time to follow, Casio’s safety would be his responsibility to ensure.

At the same time, within hidden locations across the World of Calamities.

The dark Ultimate Dark Entities and Saint Fist practitioners, who had all been extending their immense will to connect with the world, started their endless battles and consumption anew.

This time, the generally disadvantaged Saint Fist practitioners, with wills as resilient as iron, and as invasive as raging fire, surged with high spirits. Just recently, the will of Xiadu crossed realms, affecting the Blood Moon in the sky and extending a massive palm that obscured the heavens.

This was a sight that almost all formidable beings could hope to witness in the sky.

Correspondingly, as the battle ended. The Blood Moon dimmed, the colossal hand retracted with damage, and the will of Xiadu retreated as fast as the tide, also witnessed from a distance by the Saint Fist practitioners. This humiliating retreat clearly indicated that Xiadu’s strike this time was fruitless or even quite possibly a failure.

Although it was unclear what had failed, the event of Xiadu’s defeat itself was indeed a very inspiring one. Xiadu had encountered trouble that it could not resolve, which was enough to greatly boost the morale of the Saint Fist side.

Therefore, for a short period, in the ultimate battlegrounds across the World of Calamities.

A surprising shift in the tide of battle occurred.

Ever since Heaven’s Gate seal was broken and the Xiadu entity was released, with the White Bird Sacred Fist falling after burning itself out, the balance between Disasters and humans had been utterly disrupted. The disadvantaged Saint Fist practitioners desperately needed a heartening and inspiring victory. A glimmer of hope in the dark abyss could drive people to madness.

They were anticipating…

Hoping that this glimmer of hope would continue to shine, growing ever brighter.

Until it turned into a Sun, burning and incinerating everything in the abyss.

***************************************

Immortal Ascetic, a pathway of Extreme Fist Training.

Extreme self-improvement, embodying one’s own way and righteousness.

Painful cultivation refines both mind and body, until both the spirit and physical body are strong.

Surging power comes from oneself, unrelated to anything else.

Casio possessed a Golem Physique, and his Realm had long since reached the late stages of the Saint Fist, with combat power extremely close to perfection. This meant that all the severe environments of the Real World, and even most of the hazardous environments of the World of Calamities, could not offer him the slightest bit of refinement.

What Casio truly needed were certain terrifying forbidden zones of life.

These life forbidden zones, part of the Calamity Source Spring and the harsh environments of the World of Calamities, constituted extremely unique terrains. They are natural Hells.

Such as the Devil Lake, River of Sin, Valley of the Trees, Deep Sea Abyss.

Among them, particularly the Deep Sea Abyss with its special seal is incredibly strong. Even the White Bird Sacred Fist, which is implicitly the strongest among the Southern Dipper Three Fist, is severely disrupted by the combined suppression of the Moon God Curse and the Abyss Seal. The Abyss Seal, which can also be referred to as the Death Abyss Seal, exerts a terrifying pulling force from the depths of the Black Sea.

At every moment, it tugs at the practitioner’s organs and tissues, blood and veins, skeleton and cells. It’s as if to tear a person apart on the spot.

Such a level of hardship, truly intense, truly exhilarating.

Even enveloped in a Golem Physique like Casio, one would not fare well and would experience the extreme malice of the most dangerous environment in the World of Calamities.

But this is exactly what he desired, isn’t it?

The more dangerous and extreme, the better it hones one’s self-awareness and true nature.

Of course, everything should be progressive, gradually adapting and then slowly increasing intensity.

Casio would not directly head to the Deep Sea Abyss. Before that, he would start the Immortal Ascetic training in other life forbidden zones, getting into the right state first.

After some contemplation, he chose the River of Sin as his first destination. Mainly because it was closer, allowing for swift arrival.

World of Calamities, life forbidden zone, River of Sin.

This was a river located at the source of the Rotten Marsh.

It was precisely because of this River of Sin, after millions of years of erosion and soaking in the power of Calamities, that this area called the Rotten Marsh was formed.

Within the River of Sin, there is something called the Force of Decay, emanating from the riverbed beneath, which accelerates the decomposition of all living things within the river. Initially, although the Force of Decay was fearsome, it was not yet terrifyingly so. That was until one day, when the riverbed of the River of Sin diverted its course and connected with a source of Calamity, causing a chemical reaction between the Calamity power and the Force of Decay.
