Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 1830 - 1812: Concealment, Deadly Intent!

When the three of them appeared in the Heaven Demon Forest, they immediately began searching along the outskirts towards the inner regions. To their surprise, they couldn’t find any trace of Fang Yan and his companions after three full days. This situation left Wu Qingfeng and his companions quite troubled. They had already ventured this deep, and going any further meant possibly encountering formidable demon beasts, which would certainly lead to unforeseen circumstances.

After some discussion, the three of them realized that simply waiting like this was not a viable solution. They decided to find a demon beast of the Human Immortal Realm and ask for information. If there were no insights about Fang Yan and his companions’ whereabouts, they would try another method. If there were any clues, they would continue the search for Fang Yan.

From their perspective, capturing a demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm should pose no problem for the three of them, all being in the Human Immortal Realm. Indeed, they managed to capture a demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm and learned from it that Fang Yan and his companions were indeed in the Heaven Demon Forest, although their exact location was unknown.

Upon receiving this information, the three of them didn’t further trouble the demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm. After all, they were only gathering information. If they were to engage in a fight with a demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm, it could cause massive disturbances and attract even more powerful demon beasts, making it extremely hard to escape unscathed.

Little did they know that the demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm they had released had previously refined elixirs at Fang Yan’s place and had sensed the murderous intent in their words. So, after parting ways with the three, this demon beast of the Demon Immortal Realm ventured deeper into the Heaven Demon Forest to relay information to the other strong entities of the Demon Immortal Realm...

In the outskirts of the Heaven Demon Forest, Wu Qingfeng and his companions were hiding atop a large tree. They were now certain of Fang Yan’s whereabouts and were waiting for his appearance. But to their utter astonishment, what came instead were more than ten demon beasts of the Demon Immortal Realm!

"Retreat quickly!"

Wu Qingfeng, who was on the lookout, suddenly saw the group of demon beasts rushing towards them and was instantly dumbfounded. He couldn’t comprehend the situation, nor why they were suddenly under attack by so many demon beasts of the Demon Immortal Realm. This confusion left them completely perplexed, unable to grasp what was unfolding...

There was no time to ponder further. Faced with such formidable foes, they had no choice but to flee. Without hesitation, the three of them mustered all their strength and employed every secret technique and elixir they could to escape. In an instant, their speed reached its limit, allowing them to gain some distance from the pursuing demon beasts.

In this desperate bid for survival, they barely managed to escape the confines of the Heaven Demon Forest. Observing the demon beasts halting their pursuit at the forest’s edge, their faces turned pale. The escape had nearly scared them to death...

"Why are you chasing us? Can you explain?" From hundreds of feet away, Wu Qingfeng addressed the halting demon beasts, realizing that he no longer had to worry. If these demon beasts were to pursue them further, they would soon reach the Divine Sword Sect. Once the experts of the Divine Sword Sect got involved, the demon beasts would be forced to flee. It was precisely the presence of the Divine Sword Sect that deterred the beasts from causing havoc beyond the Heaven Demon Forest.

Upon hearing Wu Qingfeng’s words, one of the demon beasts floated in mid-air and coldly replied, "You intend to find Fang Yan and kill him, don’t you? From now on, the Heaven Demon Forest will blacklist your Wu Family. Any member of your family who enters the forest will be killed on sight. Leave..."

Having delivered this message, the demon beast promptly led the others away. The threat was clear: any Wu Family member daring to enter the Heaven Demon Forest would face severe consequences. Their intention towards Fang Yan would not be tolerated by the beast inhabitants of the forest!

Ah!

What is going on!

How could it end up like this!

...

Wu Qingfeng and his companions were utterly bewildered by the scene. They couldn’t understand why the demon beasts were acting this way. Their goal was to kill Fang Yan, but how was this related to the demon beasts? And now, a declaration like this barred their Wu Family from entering the Heaven Demon Forest, with dire consequences!

No matter how much they thought, reason eluded them, for no logic seemed to apply. Humans and demon beasts are natural enemies, yet the beasts’ decision to protect a human baffled them. If they hadn’t witnessed it themselves, they would never believe such an event could occur.

Regardless, the reality was inescapable; they understood the beasts weren’t joking. Their relentless pursuit proved the seriousness of the situation. If not for their survival techniques and the absence of Demon Venerable Realm beasts, no one among them might have survived...

"Great Elder, what do you think..." one elder, finally regaining his composure, asked Wu Qingfeng, lost in thought and unsure of what to do next...

"Indeed, Great Elder, how did it come to this..." Another elder, with a similarly troubled expression, echoed the question, at a loss over the current course of action. Their failure to eliminate Fang Yan, coupled with being blacklisted by the Heaven Demon Forest, was disastrous!

Wu Qingfeng, rather than answering immediately, exhibited a dark, oppressive demeanor. Responsible for this mission, he hadn’t anticipated such an outcome. Returning to the Wu Family like this left him uncertain on how to report back to the clan.

After some contemplation, his expression grew increasingly grim. Finally, he grit his teeth and declared, "Fang Yan must be killed. If he continues to rise, the Wu Family’s status will be threatened. Now that events have unfolded this way, we will wait outside the Heaven Demon Forest. If Fang Yan appears, we will swiftly eliminate him and then return. This is the only way we can account to the clan."

It was an unavoidable decision. Failing to kill Fang Yan and returning empty-handed meant facing punishment from the clan. The three elders couldn’t bear losing access to the Heaven Demon Forest. Their only recourse was to reduce their culpability by eliminating Fang Yan!

The other two elders nodded in agreement with Wu Qingfeng’s decision, recognizing it as the most practical plan to mitigate their responsibility. With this understanding, the two ceased speaking, following Wu Qingfeng into hiding, waiting for Fang Yan to emerge...

......

Amidst the flowing lava, a purple light faintly flashed, occasionally flickering and then contracting...

Beneath the magma, an unseen scene unfolded.

Surrounded by the purple flames, Fang Yan stood motionless, resembling a stone statue, unaffected by the scorching purple fire enveloping him. Every garment and hair had long since been incinerated, his skin charred black and cracked, as if ready to split open at any moment.

Yet some unknown force emerged when the fissures threatened to burst, forcibly healing them, only to be scorched and cracked again.

This cycle repeated endlessly...

The power of the Soul Melting Flame was formidable; throughout this period, Fang Yan felt a constant soul-searing agony, indescribable in its intensity. Were it not for his prior experience of subduing the Extreme Cold Ice Fire, he would have long succumbed, reduced to ashes by the Soul Melting Flame.

Despite nearly three months passing, the torment persisted. He knew that losing focus even momentarily could lead to an irreversible abyss, so he endured, constantly engulfed by flames, gritting his teeth through the ordeal.

However, the time wasn’t entirely fruitless. Fang Yan observed the diminishing harm from the Soul Melting Flame and increased soul strength. He realized the process of taming the Soul Melting Flame was nearing completion. Now all that remained was to persevere, and persevere he would!

Compared to Fang Yan’s state, Qin Kun and Wu Shan were faring much better. Under the influence of elixirs and the nourishment of the Spiritual Spring, their bodies underwent unprecedented transformation, impurities consistently expelled, their bodies gradually altered, emanating a faint glow.

Anyone witnessing this would surely exclaim in disbelief, "How is this possible!"

Undergoing Spirit Spring Tempering, their bodies would reach a new level of transformation. Once complete, their progress would be incredibly swift, a phenomenon scarcely conceivable, their bodies having transformed into innate forms, a constitution long vanished from the Immortal Realm.

Yet another individual possessed a similar body: Fang Yan. His body was reconstructed by Lin Feng using various Spiritual Medicines and Treasures, resulting in an innate physique purer and more perfect than both Qin Kun’s and Wu Shan’s...

Beneath Qin Kun and Wu Shan, the Spiritual Springs slowly dwindled at an imperceptible pace, as if only their disappearance revealed the silent passage of time.

A month later...

As the last of the Spiritual Springs dissipated, time itself seemed to freeze. When it finally resumed, a month had slipped away unnoticed, passing in a silent river.

Upon the final vanishing trace of the Spiritual Spring, Qin Kun and Wu Shan began to open their eyes. Brilliant lights flashed as their awakening sent shockwaves echoing through the surroundings.

The air reverberated with a thunderous rumble as the colossal energy surge persisted for a moment before tapering off. Only then did Qin Kun and Wu Shan gaze around, both wide-eyed and fully awakened.
