Chapter 1332: Chapter 1332: Return to Simplicity

"What’s happening?"

"The temperature has suddenly dropped a lot!"

"I wonder if this has anything to do with Brother Fang."

...

The temperature in the Eternal Death Zone plummeted suddenly, and Li Chenzhou, Yin Tianyu, and Jing Chaoyu felt it the moment it happened.

The three of them stood up one after another, looking towards the core area of the Eternal Death Zone with a look of surprise on their faces.

The Eternal Death Zone had existed for who knows how long—through countless trials of wind, frost, rain, and snow—but the temperature within these thousand miles had never changed.

However, after Fang Bai entered, the apparently constant temperature here underwent a tremendous change, which naturally led Li Chenzhou and the others to think of Fang Bai.

But then again, they dismissed the thought, reasoning that no matter how powerful Fang Bai was, he was still human, not a deity. How could one person change the temperature across a thousand miles?

Yet, if this matter was unrelated to Fang Bai, what else could have caused it?

With that question in mind, Li Chenzhou and the others used their movement technique to rush towards the core area of the Eternal Death Zone.

After covering several miles, a figure suddenly appeared in their line of sight.

"That is... Brother Fang!"

Seeing the figure, Li Chenzhou’s face lit up with joyful surprise, exclaiming involuntarily.

The newcomer was dressed in a white robe, extraordinarily handsome—it was none other than Fang Bai himself.

Fang Bai seemed to walk slowly, but with each step, he covered dozens of yards, and in almost the blink of an eye, he had traveled hundreds of meters to appear before Li Chenzhou and the others.

His speed was incredibly fast, making Yin Tianyu and Jing Chaoyu’s pupils contract slightly. They exchanged glances, both seeing a trace of shock in each other’s eyes.

Although the two of them were quite proud, they knew even if they gave their all, they couldn’t match Fang Bai’s speed.

From this, it could be inferred that Fang Bai’s current strength had far surpassed theirs.

"It seems that Brother Fang must have obtained the treasured item guarded by the Red-Horned Golden-Eyed Lion in the core area of the Eternal Death Zone, and thus his strength has been greatly enhanced."

Thinking this, Yin Tianyu and Jing Chaoyu felt both envy and jealousy. However, the strength Fang Bai had just shown thoroughly extinguished any thoughts of seizing it from him.

Despite knowing they couldn’t get the treasure, Yin Tianyu and Jing Chaoyu were still very curious to see what the treasured item was, which would make their trip to the Eternal Death Zone worthwhile.

"Brother Fang, you have been gone for half a month, which truly worried me! Seeing that you are unharmed, I can rest easy!"

Li Chenzhou had also noticed the improvement in Fang Bai’s strength and looked him up and down a few times, saying cheerfully.

"Has it been half a month?"

Fang Bai was startled, then gave a wry smile. He hadn’t expected that after absorbing the Red Silkworm Spirit Fire, it would take him half a month to completely refine it and integrate it into the bead of Chaos Origin Energy.

And in his previous life, when Fang Bai subdued such a low-level Spiritual Fire as the Red Silkworm Spirit Fire, it only took him three to five days to refine it.

However, in his previous life, Fang Bai was only able to subjugate and refine the Red Silkworm Spirit Fire after successfully establishing his Foundation, but the current Fang Bai has just stepped into the Innate Realm and has already subdued and refined the Red Silkworm Spirit Fire, a very rare feat.

"From the time you left until now, no more no less, just half a month!"

Li Chenzhou, just like the Black and White Demons, was full of questions and wanted to get answers from Fang Bai’s mouth, so he asked, "Brother Fang, what have you been doing in this half a month? And, what exactly is the treasure guarded by those Red-Horned Golden-Eyed Lions?"

Fang Bai smiled and said: "I have already said, it’s just a cluster of flames."

Seeing that Li Chenzhou and the other two were skeptical, Fang Bai extended his left arm out, palm facing up, and a red gleam flashed through his eyes.

Immediately, under the astonished gazes of Li Chenzhou and the others, a small flame, resembling a silkworm, appeared in the center of Fang Bai’s palm, gently pulsating.

"You mean to say... the treasure guarded by the ten Red-Horned Golden-Eyed Lions is this cluster of flames?"

Li Chenzhou pointed at the flame in Fang Bai’s palm as he asked.

Seeing Fang Bai nod, Li Chenzhou frowned and began to carefully observe the cluster of flames, muttering, "There doesn’t seem to be anything special about it..."

No sooner had he spoken than the flame in Fang Bai’s palm suddenly released a dazzling light, so bright that it pained Li Chenzhou’s eyes and he instinctively closed them.

The next moment, Li Chenzhou felt the temperature around him sharply increase, returning to the previous intensely hot state, and in an instant, his clothes were soaked with sweat.

"This flame is not ordinary fire but Spiritual Fire, naturally born from heaven and earth. Its temperature is so high that it can melt steel. If I had just released the full heat of the Spiritual Fire, even with your strength, Brother Li, it would be hard to withstand."

Fang Bai saw Li Chenzhou retreat ten-odd zhang before opening his eyes again and continued with a smile, "Without this cluster of flames, the Eternal Death Zone would not exist, nor the underground Essence Stone Vein... "

Li Chenzhou, observing the flame in Fang Bai’s palm from a distance, showed a slight trace of fear in his expression, and said, "Are you suggesting... that it was this Spiritual Fire that created the Eternal Death Zone and formed the Essence Stone Vein?"

Fang Bai nodded and said, "Exactly."

"This... such a small cluster of flames, could it really be so miraculous?"

Li Chenzhou was astounded and muttered, "I suppose only Immortal Fire would possess such power, right?"

Fang Bai rolled his eyes, thinking that Immortal Fire can burn the heavens and destroy the earth, with a might beyond imagination. If the flame in my palm were really Immortal Fire, then including myself, all four of us would have already turned to ash, how could we still be standing here talking just fine?

Yin Tianyu and Jing Chaoyu were originally arrogant and conceited, rarely putting any Martial Artist in their eyes, but at this moment, the look they gave Fang Bai carried a hint of reverence.

This cluster of Spiritual Fire made them step back far away, not daring to approach, and Fang Bai was able to subdue it, doesn’t that mean that Fang Bai’s strength has reached an extremely terrible level that they can only look up to?

At this time, when they looked at Fang Bai closely, they found that Fang Bai increasingly resembled an ordinary person; they could not sense any trace of Martial Artist Aura on him.

Such a discovery was even more shocking to Yin Tianyu and the others.

Because they knew that this state of Fang Bai’s was what is known in legends as returning to simplicity and truth.

If before entering the Eternal Death Zone, the two of them felt they had some competition with Fang Bai, now, setting aside the terrifyingly powerful Spiritual Fire in Fang Bai’s palm, even with just his fists and kicks, Fang Bai could easily eliminate the both of them.

That is to say, Fang Bai’s combat strength has already far surpassed that of Innate perfection level experts like them, reaching a higher level.

However, the Innate Realm is already the pinnacle of the Martial Dao in this world; what kind of realm lies beyond that, and how should one cultivate to reach such a realm?

For a time, the Black and White Demons, whose very names could change the expressions of Martial Artists in the True Martial Realm, stood there as if entranced, seemingly lost in their thoughts.
