Chapter 2916: Origin Fire

Chapter 2916: Chapter 2916: Origin Fire

Fang Bai evaded the pursuit of several Divine Emperor members of the Dark Clan, and flew back to the Fire Domain at full speed.

At the moment he entered the Fire Domain, he crushed a Chaos Jade Plaque in his hand.

This Chaos Jade Plaque was agreed upon by Fang Bai and the Fire Principal God as a means of contact. Once Fang Bai successfully rescued the Divine Emperors of the Emperor’s Palace, he would use this method to inform the Fire Principal God, who was confronting the Dark Principal God on the front lines.

Shortly after the Chaos Jade Plaque was shattered, and with a wave of heat arriving, the Fire Principal God appeared in front of Fang Bai.

"Have you rescued all those under your command?"

Seeing the expression on Fang Bai’s face, the Fire Principal God realized that his venture into the Dark Realm was relatively smooth.

Upon arriving in the Fire Domain, Fang Bai’s heart was at ease. Hearing the Fire Principal God’s inquiry, he smiled and said, "I have rescued them."

He knew that without the Fire Principal God holding off the Dark Principal God, attempting to rescue the gods of the Emperor’s Palace would have been like a fool’s dream. He felt grateful and bowed deeply to the Fire Principal God to express his thanks again.

The Fire Principal God waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me. I’m helping you so that you can assist our Fire Clan in the future."

Fang Bai solemnly said, "This little god will do his utmost."

The Fire Principal God smiled contentedly at Fang Bai and said, "I mentioned before that I would give you an opportunity. Now, come with me."

Fang Bai noticed the mysterious demeanor of the Fire Principal God and, not knowing where he was being taken, followed him towards the Principal God Hall.

"When I went to rescue the gods of the Emperor’s Palace, I found many powerful beings from various clans who had been captured by the Dark Clan and rescued them as well..."

During the flight, Fang Bai thought of the gods of the Emperor’s Palace and the other powerful beings from various clans inside the Five Elements Space Ring and mentioned them casually, not concealing the existence of the Five Elements Space Ring from the Fire Principal God.

Because he noticed that the spatial divine ring worn on the Fire Principal God’s finger was similar to his own Five Elements Space Ring, capable of holding living beings, it might even be more advanced, ensuring he wouldn’t covet the Five Elements Space Ring.

Indeed, upon hearing about the Five Elements Space Ring, the Fire Principal God wasn’t surprised. Instead, it was the fact that Fang Bai had rescued many Innate Spiritual Root experts from various clans that astonished him.

"The Dark Clan captured so many Innate Spiritual Root experts from various clans and sent them to the Yin Pole Palace, surely for the Dark Principal God’s cultivation. The Dark Principal God was already immensely powerful, and if he were to absorb the blood essence of so many Innate Spiritual Root experts from various clans, he could become even stronger..."

The Fire Principal God glanced at Fang Bai, exhaled lightly, and said, "Rescuing so many Innate Spiritual Root experts from various clans is a great deed. Their respective clans will surely have a favorable impression of you and may even be grateful. However, once the Dark Principal God learns of this, he will undoubtedly be infuriated!"

With a laugh, he added, "The angrier he gets, the better. If it can disrupt his daoist heart and affect his cultivation, all the better!"

Fang Bai also laughed along.

Having already become mortal enemies with the Dark Clan, once the truth was known, the Dark Clan would only hate him more, desiring his death.

At Fang Bai’s current strength, it was only the Dark Principal God he feared among the Dark Clan, so the more misfortune befell the Dark Principal God, the happier he was.

Fang Bai also understood that the fact he entered the Dark Realm and rescued the gods of the Emperor’s Palace and the Innate Spiritual Root experts from various clans would sooner or later be known by the Dark Principal God.

By then, the Dark Principal God would surely try to deal with him in every possible way.

Having a Principal God harboring ill intent towards oneself was not a good thing. If the Dark Principal God spared no effort to enter the Fire Domain and struck him with a thunderous blow, he would be powerless to resist, leading to certain death.

Therefore, after leaving the Dark Realm, Fang Bai decided to quickly find a hidden place to hide, then focus on cultivation, waiting until his strength had significantly improved before reappearing.

Yet the Fire Principal God wanted to bestow upon him an opportunity, which piqued his curiosity, prompting him to follow and see.

As for the rescued gods of the Emperor’s Palace and other powerful beings, Fang Bai was in no rush to release them. After all, the Five Elements Space Ring was filled with rich chaotic energy that could dispel the miasma and death aura within them, purifying their bodies and allowing them to recover in a short time.

At that time, he could then explain the events to the powerful beings from various clans.

Fang Bai and the Fire Principal God chatted as they flew, quickly returning to the Principal God Hall.

"Let’s continue forward!"

The Fire Principal God led Fang Bai, bypassing the Principal God Hall and continuing to fly towards the core area of the Fire Domain.

By this time, Fang Bai faintly began to comprehend what the opportunity the Fire Principal God was going to give him might be.

After flying ten thousand miles past the Principal God Hall, the Fire Divine Power became several times more intense, and the temperature of the world increased manifold. Even with Fang Bai’s immensely powerful Divine Emperor Realm body, his skin felt a bit charred, causing him to frown slightly.

The Fire Principal God noted Fang Bai’s reaction, smiled and asked, "Can you still continue forward?"

He was concerned that Fang Bai might not withstand the scorching temperature of the Fire Divine Power and suffer injury, hence the question.

Fang Bai nodded and said, "I can manage."

For Fang Bai, even if his flesh were to crack and only bones remained, he could recover as before. This level of burning was trivial, and he believed he could endure pain ten or a hundred times stronger than this.

The Fire Principal God also believed that Fang Bai, with the Chaos True Body, wouldn’t be so fragile.

So they continued to fly forward, with each forward leap of ten thousand miles, the Fire Divine Power grew thicker, and the temperature rose accordingly.

"This is far enough!"

When Fang Bai’s skin started to feel intensely burnt, the Fire Principal God finally spoke.

"I think... I can go a bit further ahead."

Fang Bai circulated a divine method, resisting the Fire Divine Power that constantly eroded his body, and said with a smile.

His skin hadn’t cracked, nor was his flesh damaged, so for him, this level of injury was still just a breeze.

The Fire Principal God said, "I know you have more strength, but you can start cultivating here. Once you make some progress, you can move closer to continue cultivating... Such gradual progress is the correct Dao of Cultivation."

Fang Bai knew the Fire Principal God meant well, so he nodded and did not proceed further.

"About five thousand miles ahead is where the Origin Fire is located. The Origin Fire is the source of all fires in the world, and its power is capable of incinerating everything. Cultivating around it and absorbing the Fire Divine Power it emits will be greatly beneficial to increasing your strength... This is the opportunity I want to give you."

The Fire Principal God’s Divine Sense observed the Origin Fire five thousand miles away, and with a solemn expression, he said to Fang Bai.
