Chapter 5924

Meanwhile, at Earthfire Pavilion’s Heavenfire Secret Realm, Jared sat cross-legged on the Flame Lotus Throne at the chamber’s heart, eyes closed, breath long and steady.

Crimson-gold earth fire flowed around him like docile silk, threading through the air in languid currents.

On his left breast, the once-hideous imprint from Soul-Devouring Demonic Palm had dwindled to a faint rose scar, its surface alive with wisps of chaotic energy and the elusive shimmer of a golden dragon.

Exactly three months had passed since he crawled out of the abyss beneath the world.

In all that time, Jared had not taken a single step beyond the Heavenfire Secret Realm.

Earthfire Pavilion emptied its treasured vaults for him, dispatching healing elixirs, body-tempering tonics, and mind-clearing teas in an unending stream.

Vermilion Demon Lord, too, lingered instead of leaving with the Jadeheart Marrow, just so he could pour a lifetime of demonic cultivation into Jared’s hands.
