Chapter 903: Chapter 903: A Few Years

Fang Bai stood still, silently watching the teleportation portal that emitted rainbow lights and pulsed slowly, his expression filled with reluctance and melancholy.

Only when the teleportation portal disappeared did Fang Bai let out a long sigh, picked up his spirits, and perked up.

According to Fang Bai’s speculation, this teleportation array had already existed and was likely set up by a powerful being in this world during ancient times.

Once a teleportation array was completed, it would be extremely sturdy, unlikely to be destroyed unless a major environmental change occurred. For some reason, this portal had sustained some damage. After Fang Bai had repaired it, it was able to be reactivated.

In Fang Bai’s view, this teleportation portal might be the only passage to other worlds from this one, and it must be protected at all costs.

Now, without the ability from his previous life to directly tear through space for time-space travel, Fang Bai needed this teleportation array to travel to new worlds like the True Martial Realm.

For safety, Fang Bai specially set up a Concealment Formation around the teleportation array to ensure that it wouldn’t be discovered by others before he left the Snowy Plateau.

......

In the following years, Fang Bai focused on his own cultivation while also wholeheartedly teaching his family and friends, disciples, and beauties to cultivate diligently.

During this period, Fang Bai’s footsteps covered the mountains and rivers of the entire world, discovering several Essence Stone Veins of various sizes and a few strongholds left behind by powerful beings, acquiring a large number of cultivation resources.

Most of these cultivation resources were used on his family and friends, disciples, and beauties. He seldom used any for himself.

Despite that, Fang Bai’s speed of advancing his cultivation level still far outstripped others, having progressed from the initial stage of the Surging Essence Realm to the realm of perfection.

Perfection in the Surging Essence Realm was equivalent to Vast Level Perfection in the Ancient Martial World. With his ability to challenge those beyond his level, Fang Bai’s current cultivation level allowed him to contend with any powerful being within the higher Cosmic Level Realm.

Fang Bai was confident that even if he went to the True Martial Realm now, he would have a foothold.

While Fang Bai made rapid progress, his family and friends, as well as his beautiful disciples, also achieved remarkable feats, especially those who possessed an Innate Spiritual Root. Under his intensive mentorship, all had reached the Heaven Level Realm.

As for the Lightning Mink, it had spent the years eating and sleeping without a worry for cultivation resources. Unknowingly, it had broken through to the Desolate Level Realm, becoming Fang Bai’s number one "expert."

Long Jingtian had also ascended to Heaven Level Perfection. Surprisingly, over these years, his white hair turned black, his teeth were renewed, and both his body and spirit saw improved well-being, putting him in a state of "reverse growth," as if he had become youthful again.

Having tasted the sweetness of cultivation, Long Jingtian’s obsession with the Martial Dao grew stronger. He eventually resigned from his position as the leader of the Dragon Guards.

Long Jingtian initially wanted the Dragon Maiden to take over as the leader of the Dragon Guards, but she too was engrossed in cultivation and showed little interest in the leadership role. With no other option, Long Jingtian had to entrust the Dragon Guards to Long Da’s control.

"The overall strength of the ’Dragon Guard’ has also undergone a qualitative leap in the past few years, sweeping the organizations of meta-humans around the world and becoming the strongest force secretly maintaining Huaxia’s interests."

Those who were led by Fang Bai onto the path of the Martial Dao understood it more profoundly than other Ancient Martial Cultivators. They learned from Fang Bai that reaching the extremes of the Martial Dao could also lead to immortality and godhood, possessing ten thousand years of life, or even eternal life, which held a fatal attraction for them.

Although they did not understand why Fang Bai knew so much, the Martial Dao Arcane that Fang Bai explained to them was profound and mysterious, subtly conforming to the ultimate principles of the Heavenly Dao, which left them no choice but to believe.

When Fang Bai spoke of the True Martial Realm, they all yearned for that unfamiliar and mysterious world, especially people like Long Jingtian, who had little family ties, and was eager to try, repeatedly asking Fang Bai to send him to the True Martial Realm to struggle and train, and strive for higher breakthroughs in the Martial Dao.

Even though Fang Bai mentioned that the True Martial Realm was a place where the weak were prey to the strong and full of dangers, Long Jingtian was not afraid at all. He patted his chest and said that the True Martial Realm was the place where martial artists should go, and that even if he died there, he would have no regrets.

There were actually quite a few people who shared the same determination as Long Jingtian, such as "Doctor Pavilion" Pavilion Master Wen Yu and others from the Secular Ancient Martial World, Xuan Nan and Xuan Ku from Shaolin; Sect Disciples from Hidden Sects like ’Spirit Crane Sect’, ’Yunnv Sect’...

Even Wu De, who came to Fang Bai once wanting to collaborate with him to explore an Essence Stone Vein, cried out excitedly "Wow, wow" after hearing about the True Martial Realm from Fang Bai, pestering Fang Bai to let him go to the True Martial Realm with Long Jingtian and others.

Among Fang Bai’s disciples, Ghost Hand and Alian had no attachments and were eager to experience life in the True Martial Realm;

If Niu Ben and Xiong Yingxiong did not have family at home, they would probably have gone with Ghost Hand.

Among Fang Bai’s several close female friends, Baili Mingyue’s family was like rootless duckweed in this world, so they were willing to go to the True Martial Realm;

The Dragon Maiden was an orphan and was willing to follow Long Jingtian to struggle in the True Martial Realm;

Although Xia Chenyu had a father, they were like archenemies and did not communicate with each other.

As for her ’Beauty Company’, after completely defeating the Anxi Shen Family, Xia Chenyu had resolved her heart knot, and in the past two years had devoted all her heart to cultivation. She put the management of the ’Beauty Company’ in the hands of Wu Xiuyun and Zhao Xiaomeng, so she had no more concerns about this world.

Others like Dongfang Rushi, Dongfang Ruhua, Su Linglong, Tang Wenrou, Ye Wumei, Qin Yaorao and other women all had family, and it was difficult for them to cut ties temporarily.

Ever since Fang Bai gained the ability to refine elixirs, he spared no cost, expending a great deal of energy and Spiritual Medicine to create elixirs that could improve the physique of ordinary people, allowing his parents to take them and successfully embark on the path of the Martial Dao.

Though Fang Gang and Yang Mei were of average aptitude, with Fang Bai’s guidance and the pile-up of a large amount of Cultivation Resources, their journey on the Martial Dao would not be too mediocre in the future.

Having resolved the issue with his parents, Fang Bai finally relaxed. In this way, if he went to the True Martial Realm in the future, he would be able to take his family with him.

More than a year passed in a blink of an eye, and the Cultivation Resources that Fang Bai found in this world were almost exhausted. The scarcity of Cultivation Resources had also caused the cultivation progress of Fang Bai and his close friends, disciples, and confidantes to come to a halt.

For martial artists, the path of the Martial Dao is like sailing with the current; if you do not advance, you retreat. The scarcity of Cultivation Resources severely affected the cultivation progress of Fang Bai and the others, which they found hard to accept.
