Chapter 1319: Chapter 1319: Uncovering the Truth

"Back in the day, when I first arrived at the edge of the Eternal Death Zone, I had the same thought as you and tried to enter its core area to discover what caused this thousand-mile radius to be unbearably hot and devoid of any vegetation, and also why it harbored a huge Flame Elemental Stone Vein. However, the closer I got to the core area of the Eternal Death Zone, the hotter the surrounding temperature became, and eventually, I had to retreat because I could not withstand the extreme heat..."

Li Chenzhou stood shoulder to shoulder with Fang Bai, reminiscing about his past experiences with a sigh, then continued, "However, at that time, my strength had been compromised due to cultivation deviation, which was less than half of what it was at my peak—hence I was unable to venture further into the core of the Eternal Death Zone, leaving some regrets..."

Saying this, a proud look appeared on his face, and he said with a heroic spirit, "Now that my strength has returned to its peak, I’ll accompany Brother Fang back into the core area of the Eternal Death Zone to unravel the truth! With the two of us joining forces, no matter how great the danger we encounter, we will be fearless!"

An Innate Expert at perfection is an existence that stands at the pinnacle of the Martial Dao in this world. Together, the two could indeed sweep across the era, unbeatable; thus Li Chenzhou had such bold assertions.

And the decision to join forces and venture deep into the Eternal Death Zone to investigate was mutually agreed upon by the two after Fang Bai healed Li Chenzhou in a deep underground pit previously.

Fang Bai was certain that there was a Spiritual Fire in the core area of the Eternal Death Zone, and Li Chenzhou was highly interested in the cause of the Eternal Death Zone’s creation, so the two hit it off and decided to join forces.

Moreover, both of them were experienced and knowledgeable experts who knew that the depths of the Eternal Death Zone were not as some Martial Artists speculated—barren due to the high temperatures and devoid of life. Instead, it was very likely that fire-based Spirit Beasts that thrived on Fire Primordial Qi were active there, with formidable attacking power for sure.

Together, if they indeed encountered powerful fire-based Spirit Beasts, they would be more confident in repelling or even slaying them.

"Brother Li, shall we set off now?"

After standing in place for a moment, Fang Bai let out a soft sigh and said to Li Chenzhou.

"Alright!"

Li Chenzhou took several deep breaths and nodded solemnly.

The next moment, they dashed towards the deep parts of the Eternal Death Zone like lightning.

"Fang Bai, Brother Li, take care!"

Xia Chenyu, who was far away but had been watching them closely, saw their figures quickly disappearing into the dense Fire Primordial Qi, silently praying for them in her heart.

Just as Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou had anticipated, the deeper they went into the Eternal Death Zone, the richer the Fire Primordial Qi became. The red Fire Primordial Qi was like smoke and fog, enveloping everything and drastically reducing the visibility for Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou, making the range they could see with their naked eyes more and more limited.

Luckily, both of them had developed Divine Sense, and any dangers within a radius of a thousand meters couldn’t escape their keen perception.

They maintained a distance of several hundred meters apart, advancing side by side, swiftly moving forward. In this way, if one party was attacked, the other could come to their aid in a timely manner.

More than a hundred miles deep into the Eternal Death Zone, they began encountering incomplete human skeletons along the way. Some of the skeletons were lying next to items like Spatial Rings and Spiritual Artifacts, indicating that their owners were Martial Artists in life.

Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou collected near the skeletons of these Martial Artists to examine them.

Li Chenzhou’s gaze swept over those skeletons, he sighed and said, "It’s no wonder that the Eternal Death Zone is regarded as a Forbidden Zone of Life by Martial Artists, who dare not tread lightly within it. These fallen Martial Artists are the best evidence of that!"

He paused, then added, "More than a decade ago when I entered the Eternal Death Zone, I probably reached this place too. At that time, the high temperatures here were unbearable, so I withdrew before I could take a closer look at these skeletal remains."

Fang Bai crouched down to inspect the space rings and spiritual artifacts left beside the martial artists’ skeletal remains, casually tossing them into his own spatial ring before standing up and saying, "These fallen martial artists, each and every one of their strength was above the high rank of Universe Level. Their purpose for entering this Eternal Death Zone must be the same as ours, wanting to explore and uncover the truth."

Li Chenzhou nodded, his gaze falling on a set of martial artist’s bones, his expression growing ever more solemn as he said, "Under normal circumstances, these martial artists should have been able to retreat from the high temperatures here with ease, but they perished in this place. I think they must have encountered an attack from some powerful fire-based spirit beast!"

"So as we continue forward, we must be cautious! Brother Li, if we encounter danger, remember to sound a warning call!"

After exchanging a few words in haste, Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou again increased their distance and continued forward.

The two slowed down, becoming even more careful and watchful, especially Li Chenzhou, who clenched his fists tightly and kept his eyes wide open, fully on guard.

The spirit beast capable of killing martial artists of high Universe Level must be even stronger, plus, since those beasts live in the Eternal Death Zone, they should be more adapted to the environment and able to wield the fire primordial qi here to launch attacks at will.

Considering this point, even though both of them were Innate Experts at perfection or possessed the fighting power of such, they didn’t dare to be careless.

Fortunately, after walking another hundred li, they did not spot any traces of spirit beasts.

Yet, Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou did not relax in the slightest because of this, but instead became even more cautious.

You must know, the deeper one goes into the core area of the Eternal Death Zone, the richer the fire primordial qi becomes, and the higher the temperature rises. Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou had already ventured nearly three hundred li inward, and by a rough estimate, they were not far from the most concentrated and scorching core of the Eternal Death Zone.

Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou were certain that there were fire-based spirit beasts in the Eternal Death Zone, and there was more than one. However, they had not yet encountered any, which likely meant that these fire system spirit beasts were in areas even closer to the core of the Eternal Death Zone.

The strength of a spirit beast that could survive in such high temperatures was truly formidable.

"The fire-based spirit beasts here are at least equivalent to humans at the Universe Level of perfection!"

Li Chenzhou transmitted his voice to Fang Bai, "Against such spirit beasts, we wouldn’t fear ten or eight, and we could also slay or drive away thirty or fifty. But if the numbers are greater, it would be troublesome."

Fang Bai replied, "If they are equivalent to spirit beasts at the Universe Level of perfection, as long as there aren’t more than a hundred, leave them to me to handle. If there’s a large number of Innate Level spirit beasts, the two of us may only have the pathetic option of fleeing back."

With his current cultivation level, Fang Bai could control about a hundred spirit beasts equivalent to Universe Level martial artists by exerting the Beast Taming Art, and even control three to five comparable to Innate Experts for a short while. But beyond that number, he would be overwhelmed.

"Brother Fang, you also know the Beast Taming Art?"

Li Chenzhou was greatly surprised upon hearing Fang Bai’s claim that he could handle a hundred spirit beasts equivalent to Universe Level perfection.

If Fang Bai truly had this ability, it would add an important safety factor for their journey to the core region of the Eternal Death Zone.

Seeing Fang Bai nod in confirmation, Li Chenzhou’s mood suddenly became much lighter.
