Chapter 1214 Golden Crow Fire Forest

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Time flew by like an arrow, and more than a month had passed unknowingly.

In the small world, Chu Jun stopped cultivating and walked out of the Divine Tree of Innate Fate.

For more than a month, Chu Jun had watered the Divine Tree of Life with the detoxifying liquid prepared by the Eastern Emperor every day. Combined with the "eating" effect of the Nuanyang Vine, the Scorpion Fire Poison accumulated in the tree had been completely eliminated, and the Divine Tree's origin had slowly recovered under the nourishment of the Spirit Spring of Life. Chu Jun was even more ignorant of the fact that he had spent nearly half a jar of flowing water to irrigate the Tree of Life, allowing it to recover to the level before it was damaged, and the Three Lives Returning to Truth Art had also returned to the king level.

To be able to return to the king level within two months of his fall, Chu Jun was considered unprecedented. His luck could be said to be heaven-defying. Not everyone possessed so many treasures like him, with the help of a master at the Great Perfection of the Emperor level.

The towering Innate Divine Tree was brimming with vitality. The enormous tree crown covered a radius of several thousand kilometers. The Warm Sun Vine covered all the branches of the tree, and bloomed with small sunlike flowers. Even the branches and leaves at the bottom guaranteed sufficient illumination.

After returning from the fall, Chu Jun noticed that the vitality of the Divine Tree of Innate Fate seemed to be even more vigorous, and its roots were even tougher and more developed, covering almost every inch of the soil in the small world.

Chu Jun now understood what Zhang Jing had said about the Undying Realm. If a small world had a World Tree, its roots would spread out in every corner. It was as if reinforcing steel bars had been added to cement. The small world would naturally be tougher and more tyrannical, and it would not be easy to shatter. Of course, the Undying Realm might be exaggerated. Strength was relative. With absolute strength, even a small world with a World Tree could be destroyed.

Chu Jun opened the small world and walked out. He first greeted Ah Chou, then left the cave residence and flew west. He flew all the way to the edge of Dongyang Island, confirming that he would not attract the attention of the others on the island. Only then did he secretly sneak east along the edge of the island.

More than half an hour later, Chu Jun appeared at the periphery of the fire forest in the east.

Because the temperature was abnormally high, not a single blade of grass grew within ten kilometers of the edge of the fire forest. There were bare mountains everywhere, and the land was charred black. The closer one got to the fire forest, the more fiery red it was.

Chu Jun stood on a bare hill and looked into the distant forest of flames. He saw that the flames were rolling like usual. The rising flames were like living trees. Except for the sound of wind blowing past, the rest of the time was very quiet. Ordinary people couldn't stand the scorching heat even if they stood more than ten kilometers away.

This was not the first time Chu Jun had been here. During this month, Chu Jun had often come here to cultivate the Blazing Sun Art. This was because this fire forest was burning Golden Crow Fire. The Golden Crow Fire shared the same origin as the Sun True Fire, and naturally contained a large amount of sun essence. Cultivating the Blazing Sun Art here would naturally yield twice the result with half the effort.

Because Zhang Jing had said that there were two divine beasts, the Golden Crow, in the Fire Forest, Chu Jun had never dared to rashly enter. He had only been cultivating outside the Fire Forest and hadn't seen the so-called Golden Crow for more than a month. He couldn't help but have doubts about what Zhang Jing had said.

"Could it be that Master deliberately frightened everyone so that they wouldn't dare to go in and pick Fusang Golden Ebony?" Chu Jun thought to himself, "If I were to cultivate in the Fire Forest, the Blazing Sun Art would definitely advance faster."

Chu Jun had the intention to enter the forest of flames for a long time. Today, he finally couldn't hold back any longer and cautiously walked towards the forest of flames.

Chu Jun walked very slowly. He held the Nine Thunder Buddha Bamboo in his hand. If he really encountered the two Golden Crow, he would be able to escape in time. Since the two divine beasts had coexisted with the Eastern Emperor on this island for so many years, they wouldn't be too ferocious, right?

The closer they got to the fire forest, the hotter the surrounding temperature would become. Even the Concentration Stage cultivators would not be able to reach the edge of the fire forest. It seemed that the Eastern Emperor had not exaggerated when he said that the King-level cultivators would not be able to last for more than half an hour in the fire forest.

Of course, Chu Jun wasn't an ordinary King-level cultivator. His physical strength was even stronger than an ordinary Emperor-level cultivator. In addition, he had cultivated the Blazing Sun Divine Art, so it wouldn't be a problem for him to persevere for a day.

Chu Jun finally stepped into the Fire Forest. Wherever he passed, the raging Golden Crow Fire was forced open by Spiritual Energy, and a half-meter wide road led into the depths of the Fire Forest.

Chu Jun walked in for nearly a hundred meters and discovered that the temperature had increased several times. The further he went, the hotter the temperature would be.

Chu Jun stopped because a large tree blocked his path. The tree was completely red, and its palm-sized leaves were pale gold. It was still unharmed by the burning Golden Crow fire, and its branches were still swaying freely.

Chu Jun's heart skipped a beat. This should be the Fusang Golden Ebony that fire cultivators dreamed of. This thing was covered in treasures. The Golden Ebony could be used to refine magic treasures. The older the Golden Ebony was, the more powerful the magic treasure was. The leaves and fruits of the Golden Ebony could be used to refine medicinal pills.

Chu Jun did not hesitate to break a few pieces of golden ebony. Unfortunately, this golden ebony still did not have any fruit.

The golden ebony was incomparably hard. Chu Jun had spent a lot of effort to get five of them. It had taken him nearly half an hour. If it was an ordinary king-level one, he would probably have to retreat. Otherwise, he would definitely be burned.

After so long, he hadn't seen the divine beast Golden Crow. Chu Jun was even more certain that Zhang Jing was lying. Thus, he sat down under the golden ebony and began to cultivate in peace of mind.

As soon as Chu Jun activated the divine art, he immediately felt an incomparably dense amount of sun essence pouring into his body. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately activated his cultivation technique to absorb it with rapt attention.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Jun noticed that it was a bit hot and unbearable. His cheeks were boiling hot, and he knew that his body had reached the limit of what it could withstand. Thus, he stopped cultivating and prepared to leave the Fire Forest.

Just as Chu Jun stood up and took a step forward, he immediately froze, his hair all over his body exploding. The Nine Thunder Buddha Bamboo was swiftly unleashed, and he nervously stared at the ground in front of him.

He saw a little bird with golden feathers standing in the middle of the blazing fire, tilting its head, its eyes filled with curiosity and vigilance. Seeing Chu Jun take out the lightning-shining Thunder Buddha Bamboo, Little Bird immediately jumped a few steps sideways vigilantly and looked at Chu Jun with hooked eyes.

Chu Jun nervously tightened his grip on the Thunder Buddha Bamboo. His back was drenched in sweat. There really was a Golden Crow here. He had been cultivating with great thorns just now. If this fellow had ambushed him, nine lives would not have been enough to kill him.

One man and one bird stalled for a moment, but neither side attacked.

Chu Jun couldn't help but wonder, was this the Golden Crow, a divine beast? Why did it look even more nervous than me? According to the arrogant nature of the divine beast, he had intruded into its territory, so he should have shouted at the lowly humans and scram for this daddy.

Chu Jun tentatively waved the Nine Thunder Buddha Bamboo. The bird immediately let out a shrill cry. It spread its wings and fled into the flames. The look in its eyes was like a frightened little brat.

Chu Jun rubbed his chin in shock and said, "So timid? Is it the Golden Crow or the Crow?"

Chu Jun strode out of the fire forest and secretly flew towards the cave residence. He looked inside and discovered that the Blazing Sun Art had improved significantly. He was delighted and decided to continue cultivating in the fire forest tomorrow.

"Is that thing the Golden Crow or not? It's too timid!" Chu Jun thought of the bird that was frightened to the point of screaming and fleeing, and couldn't help but feel funny.

"Master said that the Anode Mountain behind the Fire Forest even stopped at the periphery of the Great Divine King. Next time, I have to see it." Chu Jun thought as he flew.

When Chu Jun returned to the cave, it was already dark. He chatted with Ah Chou for a while and immediately prepared to cultivate the Cold Moon Technique. During the past month, Chu Jun had spent every day cultivating. He wished he could break it open in a second. He cultivated more cultivation techniques, so he naturally had to work ten times harder than others.

Seeing that Chu Jun was preparing to cultivate again, A-Chou's eyes couldn't help but darken as he said, "Chu Jun, apart from refining divine pills, I have nothing else I can help you with. However, without divine medicines, I can't refine them now."

Chu Jun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. However, he soon understood Ah Chou's mood. She couldn't cultivate, and she was bored all day. In addition, she was busy cultivating, so she didn't even have time to talk to her for a while.

Chu Jun apologetically touched Ah Chou's head and said, "I can't get a Tier 5 divine medicine right now. Let's wait a few more days and see if we can sneak into the Divine Medicine Garden and steal some. If you're bored, help me refine some pills that will help me cultivate at the Concentration Stage and the Spirit Refinement Stage. Tell me what kind of spirit medicine you want."

Ah Chou helplessly grunted.

Chu Jun walked to the courtyard outside the cave and began to cultivate the Cold Moon Art. The next morning, he secretly sneaked towards the Fire Forest.

When Chu Jun was hundreds of miles away from the fire forest, he felt intense energy fluctuations. It was obvious that someone was fighting. He couldn't help but be shocked, "Could it be that an outsider had sneaked onto Dongyang Island?"

Chu Jun accelerated his speed and pounced towards the direction of the fire forest. From afar, he saw the flames soaring into the air. Two balls of flames were flying in the air. Only when they were close did he see them clearly. It turned out that two golden firebirds were engaged in a fierce battle with one person. That person was the Eastern Emperor, Zhang Jing.

Chu Jun couldn't help but be shocked. The two fire birds emitted an incomparably tyrannical aura. Their appearances were exactly the same as the one he met yesterday, but their bodies were much larger. He dared to meet the young Golden Crow yesterday.

Chu Jun felt sweat dripping down his back. Fortunately, he didn't encounter these two adults yesterday, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to eat them!

The two Golden Crow flew over and attacked. Intense flames sprayed out towards the Eastern Emperor. Zhang Jing's sleeves fluttered. Although he seemed to be able to swiftly attack, in reality, it was filled with dangers.

"Master, let me help you!" Chu Jun shouted loudly, and the Nine Strikes Lightning Buddha Bamboo suddenly appeared.

Zhang Jing hurriedly shouted, "Brat, don't come over and cause trouble for this old man!"

Chu Jun was just pretending, taking the opportunity to stop and retreat to the distance to observe the battle, and to see the true strength of the number one emperor.

However, Chu Jun was destined to be disappointed. With a flick of his sleeves, Zhang Near East shook the two Golden Crow apart. He withdrew and retreated to Chu Jun's side. The two Golden Crow did not chase after him, only circling and dancing above the forest of flames.

Zhang Jindong shouted sullenly, "You impolite bastard, I only picked two pure Yang mushrooms. There's no need to do this. I'm so angry."

"Old man Zhang, you still have the nerve to say that you stole five pieces of golden ebony while we weren't here yesterday, and you even scared our children. Next time you dare to come, you must burn your beard." A Golden Crow cursed angrily.
