Chapter 232: Chapter 232: The Delicate Girl Who Grew StrongerFang Bai knew that as his cultivation level and realm improved, these seven True Yuan would eventually separate, and seven Golden Cores would form in his Qi Sea before transforming into Nascent Souls, eventually culminating in seven Primordial Spirit Incarnations. Inside and outside the bamboo house, Fang Bai and Dongfang Ruhua were simultaneously absorbing the Heaven and Earth Origin Energy, each working towards a breakthrough in different realms. Unbeknownst to them, the clouds on the eastern horizon began to show a faint light, signaling the arrival of dawn. As the first rays of morning light shone into the valley, a stronger and a weaker surge of True Yuan fluctuations emanated from inside and outside the bamboo house, respectively. One came from Dongfang Ruhua, and the other came from Fang Bai. If there had been martial artists present, they would have recognized these as the True Yuan fluctuations produced during a rise in strength. Naturally, the more intense fluctuations were coming from Fang Bai. After a whole night of cultivation, Fang Bai’s "Dragon-Tiger-Lion-Elephant Technique" had finally advanced from the Accumulating Essence Realm to the initial stage of the Xingyuan Realm. This advancement in realm brought with it a several-fold increase in strength. Feeling the changes in his body and the explosive surge in strength, Fang Bai opened his eyes and couldn’t help but burst into an exuberant laugh. "Big brother, what are you laughing about?" A delicate and sweet voice suddenly sounded in Fang Bai’s ear. Fang Bai stopped laughing and turned his head to see Dongfang Ruhua stepping out from the bamboo house, looking at him with a curious expression. "Ha, a mid-grade ’Marrow Cleansing Pill’ and a mid-grade ’Creation Pill’ actually advanced you to the status of a Yellow Level High Rank Martial Artist! Congratulations, Ruhua!" Fang Bai’s gaze made a round over Dongfang Ruhua’s body, speaking with a beaming smile. Dongfang Ruhua didn’t know what "Yellow Level High Rank" meant, but she could distinctly feel the changes within her, feeling an inexhaustible strength coursing through her body, which also felt incredibly light, as if she could leap into the sky with ease. "Big brother, have I become very powerful now?" Dongfang Ruhua excitedly asked. "Compared to your former self, of course you’ve become much more powerful! Come, stand in front of this tree, circulate the ’Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Mantra,’ and punch as hard as you can to try it out!" Fang Bai leaped down from the level stone where he had been sitting cross-legged and pointed to a tree behind him that was as thick as a thigh. Full of eagerness, Dongfang Ruhua walked up to the tree, the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Mantra" rotating rapidly within her, and with a shout of "Hey," her right fist thundered out, carrying a faint sound of thunder, striking firmly against the trunk of the tree. Boom— The tree shook violently, snapping from where Dongfang Ruhua’s fist struck and crashing to the ground with a thunderous fall. Dongfang Ruhua was startled and hurriedly retreated a few steps, staring wide-eyed and speechless at the fallen tree, hardly believing she was the one who had broken it. "How about it, are you satisfied with your strength now?" Fang Bai, seeing Dongfang Ruhua’s astonished expression, asked with a grin. Dongfang Ruhua snapped out of it, looked down at her fist, and seeing it was intact, finally relaxed. "Satisfied! More than satisfied!" Dongfang Ruhua jumped for joy, her fists excitedly pumping in the air a few times. Overnight, she went from a delicate young girl who couldn’t fight off a chicken to a martial artist capable of punching through a large tree, making Dongfang Ruhua feel as if she were dreaming. With such strength, she would no longer need a bodyguard to follow her to and from school. When she thought of the word "bodyguard," the faces of Uncle Zhang and Uncle Wang, who died because of her, swam before her eyes, and her excitement vanished instantly. "What’s wrong?" Seeing her downcast and sorrowful, Fang Bai asked. "If I had had such formidable skills earlier, perhaps Uncle Zhang and Uncle Wang wouldn’t have been killed by that Lingnan Poison Venerable." Dongfang Ruhua sighed. "The Lingnan Poison Venerable is a Profound Level Expert. With your current strength, you’re still no match for him." Fang Bai walked over to Dongfang Ruhua, patted her on the shoulder, and said gently, "I know you feel guilty and responsible for the deaths of the two bodyguards, but I hope you can transform that guilt into motivation for your cultivation. As long as you grow stronger, no one will be able to harm you or your loved ones and friends in the future." "Mm. Big brother, I will definitely work hard!" Dongfang Ruhua clenched her fists tightly, her gaze unwavering. "Alright, it’s getting late; we need to hurry down the mountain! You’ve been missing for so long, your family must be going crazy with worry!" As he spoke, Fang Bai led the way toward the mouth of the valley. "Big brother, will we come back here in the future?" Dongfang Ruhua caught up with Fang Bai and asked. For Dongfang Ruhua, this valley was like a beautiful paradise, and she felt reluctant to leave it. Fang Bai nodded and said, "Of course. This valley is full of spiritual medicines, and Heaven and Earth Origin Energy is very rich here; it’s a treasure place for cultivation. Whenever we have free time, I’ll bring you here often." "That’s great." Hearing that they would be able to return regularly, Dongfang Ruhua’s face finally lit up with a smile. Upon reaching the valley, standing at the entrance of the gorge, Fang Bai took out the last few Essence Stones from his Spatial Ring, placed them in different locations, then moved his hands to inscribe a series of strange symbols on the walls of the gorge. Afterward, he waved his hands through the air. To Dongfang Ruhua’s amazement, as Fang Bai waved his hands through the void, ripples appeared in the space before him. Then she saw the Essence Stones emit a dazzling light. "Huh?" S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. When the light from the Essence Stones intertwined, the scenery before Dongfang Ruhua’s eyes blurred, and the original entrance of the valley vanished, replaced by a steep mountain wall, identical to the one they had seen upon arrival. "Big brother, what is this...?" "I used the Essence Stones to set up a new Illusory Formation. Now, other people won’t be able to discover this valley, and only we will be able to enter it," Fang Bai replied, patting his hands with a smile. In his previous life, not only did Fang Bai possess formidable strength, but he was also an unparalleled Array Master. Setting up such a minor Illusory Formation was effortless for him. It was just a pity that Fang Bai had too few Essence Stones on him, and their quality was too poor; otherwise, he could have set up a higher-rank formation. Then, even a skilled Array Master wouldn’t be able to break his formation. After leaving the gorge, the two discerned their direction and sped toward Yanjing City. Overnight, Dongfang Ruhua had become a martial artist, her spirits uplifted. As she soared, she put forth all her effort unreservedly, reveling in the sensation of the wind whistling past her ears during the flight. Due to her inexperience and insufficient True Yuan, and not knowing how to use True Yuan efficiently, her True Yuan was depleted after half an hour. She had no choice but to let Fang Bai pull her by the hand as they continued on their way. Overcoming mountains and crossing ridges, an hour later, they finally arrived at the spot where Dongfang Ruhua had disappeared the day before.
