After parting ways with Yuan Ying, Luo Feng returned to Purple Sun School early the next morning.

Having submitted his task at the Extreme Sun Great Hall, Luo Feng went straight back to his small courtyard.

After freshening up, Luo Feng sat cross-legged on the bed, took out a few pills, and swallowed them to restore the Yuan Qi he had consumed during his journey.

As the pills entered his abdomen, a cool sensation immediately spread through his limbs and bones. Luo Feng maintained his Chi block and slowly refined the medicinal power.

An hour later, Luo Feng opened his eyes. A sharp glint flashed and vanished within them; he had recovered to his peak condition.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Feng swept a finger across his storage ring. A hexagonal crystal stone the size of a fist, its surface shimmering with a faint golden light, appeared in his hand—it was the Red Flame Gold Crystal.

I didn't expect that deciding to take on the school task this time would lead to unexpectedly obtaining a Red Flame Gold Crystal.

Gazing at the Red Flame Gold Crystal in his hand, delight filled Luo Feng's eyes.

He had originally thought he would have to wait some time to cultivate the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist. But by a stroke of luck, he had unexpectedly obtained the Red Flame Gold Crystal. It was as if someone had delivered a pillow the moment he felt sleepy.

The Sky Collapse Fist can no longer fully showcase my strength. With this Red Flame Gold Crystal, I can finally cultivate the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist. I hope it doesn't disappoint me.

Muttering to himself, Luo Feng placed the Red Flame Gold Crystal between his knees and took out the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist secret manual.

After memorizing the cultivation methods for the fist technique, Luo Feng set down the manual and held the Red Flame Gold Crystal in his palm.

Taking a shallow breath, Luo Feng gradually closed his eyes. Following the cultivation method for the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist, he guided his Yuan Qi into the Red Flame Gold Crystal, strand by strand.

BOOM!

The moment the Yuan Qi entered the Red Flame Gold Crystal, Luo Feng felt as if a thunderclap boomed in his mind. A fiery sensation surged through his body—it was the pure Fire Yuan Qi from the Red Flame Gold Crystal.

As the Fire Yuan Qi coursed into him, Luo Feng immediately felt as if his entire body was ablaze, his blood turning scorching hot.

Such domineering Fire Yuan Qi!

Luo Feng was somewhat surprised. Not daring to be careless, he immediately maintained his Chi block, steadied his mind, and, recalling the cultivation method of the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist, began to integrate the invading Fire Yuan Qi into his own, strand by strand.

If anyone had been watching at that moment, they would have been shocked to see Luo Feng's skin turn as red as burning charcoal, giving him an eerie appearance.

The Fire Yuan Qi in the Red Flame Gold Crystal was too domineering. Luo Feng dared not be too aggressive and could only refine the Fire Yuan Qi entering his body strand by strand. Following the mental incantations of the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist, he controlled this integrated Fire Yuan Qi to course through his body, thoroughly merging it into his flesh and blood.

Time passed bit by bit. As Luo Feng refined more and more Fire Yuan Qi, the redness of his skin gradually faded. His muscles took on a glossy sheen, and the aura he emitted was like that of the fiercest beast. His somewhat slender frame now contained boundless explosive power.

「In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.」

During this period, aside from eating at the mess hall, Luo Feng spent all his other time in the courtyard practicing the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist.

In seven days, he successfully cultivated the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist to the Small Success stage. The Fire Yuan Qi in the Red Flame Gold Crystal was almost entirely refined by him. The originally crimson crystal was now dim and lusterless.

CRACK!

With a crisp sound, the Red Flame Gold Crystal suddenly split apart from the middle, and Luo Feng opened his eyes simultaneously.

Finally, all the Fire Yuan Qi has been refined.

Luo Feng looked at the cracked Red Flame Gold Crystal without any regret.

To cultivate the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist to the Small Success stage in just seven days had exceeded his expectations. This was all thanks to the Red Flame Gold Crystal.

Pushing off with his hands, Luo Feng leaped from the bed. He took a shallow breath, and a fierce aura immediately emanated from him. The skin on his fists was faintly red, and the air around them distorted, hinting at a terrifyingly high temperature.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a faint golden glow flickering within the pores on his fists.

Wanting to test the power of the Eight Wildernesses Dominating Flame Fist, Luo Feng leaped into the courtyard.

His gaze fell upon a large training boulder in the courtyard. Luo Feng punched out, not using any Yuan Qi.

HUM!

The fist wind howled, and the air in the small courtyard vibrated violently. Even before his fist reached the boulder, nearby plants began to wither and then, with a POOF!, burst into flames.

The massive boulder trembled slightly, then with a loud CRACK, it shattered into pieces that scattered across the ground.

Wow, this fist technique is powerful!

Looking at the rubble on the ground, Luo Feng's eyes widened in pleasant surprise. This power was at least thirty percent more formidable than the Sky Collapse Fist at the Great Accomplishment stage. And this was merely the Small Success stage.

It has such power at just the Small Success stage. I wonder what it will be like when I cultivate it to Great Accomplishment, or even Perfection.

Luo Feng was very much looking forward to it, but for now, he had to temporarily set aside his cultivation.

Nine days had passed; it was time to retrieve the Illusion Heart Pill. Besides, the Red Flame Gold Crystal was depleted, so even if he wanted to continue cultivating, it was impossible.

Gazing at the shattered Red Flame Gold Crystal in his hand, Luo Feng thought, "The rapid progress with this fist technique is largely due to the Red Flame Gold Crystal. I wonder when I'll be able to obtain such a heavenly treasure again."

As the thought surfaced, Luo Feng immediately shook his head. Such treasures are found by chance, not sought. Becoming too obsessed would be detrimental.

No longer letting his thoughts wander, Luo Feng changed his clothes, freshened up, and headed straight towards Qingfeng Town.

Qingfeng Town was as bustling as ever, with people coming and going. Luo Feng had expected to queue again at the Medicine Ding Store. However, upon arrival, he found it surprisingly empty outside.

A quick glance revealed the reason: flanking the entrance of the shop stood two martial artists in yellow attire, their expressions stern and fierce.

These two martial artists were mid-stage Heavenly Court Realm experts. Their imposing presence deterred passersby from approaching.

What on earth is going on?

Luo Feng was slightly puzzled. Concerned about the Illusion Heart Pill, he walked over directly.

Seeing Luo Feng approach, the two martial artists in yellow glared menacingly, an obvious warning for him to stay away.

Luo Feng, however, paid them no heed and walked directly forward.

Seeing the youth ignore them, the two yellow-clad martial artists frowned. They exchanged a glance, and cruel smirks appeared on their faces.

BUZZ!

Simultaneously, two mountain-heavy oppressive auras surged forth, pressing down on Luo Feng. The intense pressure even formed tangible Qi Force, sending eerie gusts of wind sweeping across the street. Approaching pedestrians, frightened, hastily retreated.

Luo Feng sneered. An invisible force abruptly emerged; the mountainous pressure failed to affect him in the slightest. Even his clothes remained perfectly still.

The sudden change attracted the attention of the surrounding pedestrians.

"It's Luo Feng, the Number One New Talent!"

Many people were startled upon seeing Luo Feng. Recognizing his identity, their faces lit up with an expression of anticipating a good show.

These two yellow-clad martial artists had been standing here for half a day, preventing anyone from approaching the Medicine Ding Store. Anyone who dared to defy them was immediately met with fists and feet. Several martial artists had already been severely wounded by them. They were extremely arrogant, and the crowd hoped Luo Feng would teach them a lesson.

The two yellow-clad martial artists were astounded that Luo Feng was unaffected by their oppressive aura. Anger flashed across their faces. One of them clenched his fist and sneered at Luo Feng, "Kid, we're from the Clear Origin City Lord's Mansion. Be smart and get lost! Otherwise, you'll face the consequences!"

"They're from the Clear Origin Mansion!"

Upon hearing the yellow-clad martial artist's words, the faces of the crowd changed.

Luo Feng frowned. Clear Origin City is a significant power near Qingfeng Town. Although it can't compare to Dayang City, it's still a considerable force. I didn't expect these two to be from the Clear Origin City Lord's Mansion.

"I'm here to see Shopkeeper Lan of the Medicine Ding Store. This has nothing to do with either of you," Luo Feng stated calmly. He then started to walk between the two yellow-clad martial artists, intending to enter the Medicine Ding Store.

The yellow-clad martial artist who had spoken before, his face turning extremely ugly, snarled, "You refuse face when it's given!"

Before his words faded, the martial artist suddenly lunged. An icy presence descended as a biting coldness emanated from his five right-hand fingers, which clawed towards Luo Feng's face.

A gasp rippled through the crowd. If that claw struck home, Luo Feng would be disfigured, if not blinded or worse. The attack was utterly vicious!

Courting death!

Luo Feng sneered, a fierce glint in his eyes, and casually threw a punch at the attacking martial artist.

BANG!

As fist met claw, a tremendous crash resounded. The yellow-clad martial artist screamed, vomited blood, and was sent flying backward. He crashed into the street, carving out a deep pit, half his head buried in the ground, his condition unknown. Most horrifying was his right hand, twisted at an unnatural angle, fingers bent backward to reveal shattered white bone. Even if healed, that arm would undoubtedly be crippled.

A wave of sharp intakes of breath swept through the street. To cripple the yellow-clad martial artist with a single punch—Luo Feng's ruthlessness was clearly no less than his opponent's.

"Bastard! You're courting death!"

The other yellow-clad martial artist turned pale with fright. He roared in fury, his Yuan Qi raging and surging within him.

"Smashing Mountain Palm!"

His clothes whipping about him, the martial artist thrust out his right palm. A crescent-shaped, transparent film of energy formed before it, striking fiercely at Luo Feng with a thunderous roar.

The palm wind howled, stirring fierce gales throughout the street. The force of this single strike seemed capable of shattering the surrounding space.

Facing the ferocious palm strike, Luo Feng remained standing his ground. With a stomp of his foot, the ground beneath him cracked. Then, with an air of casual ease, he threw another punch.

BANG!

"Ah!"

The instant fist met palm, the yellow-clad martial artist felt as if struck by lightning. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying, crashing through the main doors behind him, shattering them to pieces.

While still airborne, the martial artist stared at Luo Feng, his eyes wide with terror and utter disbelief.

The youth's cultivation was clearly on par with his own, both at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Court Realm. Yet the power of that fist was unbelievably immense, simply irresistible!

The pedestrians in the street froze in their tracks, their eyes fixed on the scene.

They had considered the possibility of Luo Feng defeating the two, but they hadn't expected him to win so decisively and directly.

One punch per person—they weren't even in the same league.

"Elder Xiao Yuan, who injured you?"

Just as Luo Feng was about to enter the Medicine Ding Store, a cold shout suddenly came from within.
