"Flame Tree? What is this?" Upon hearing the Sacred Flame's exclamation, Shi Feng communicated with him using Soul Power and asked.

However, from the exclamation of the Sacred Flame, Shi Feng was certain that this must be a rare treasure, even in their era.

"Legend has it that this tree grows in extremely hot places, absorbing the essence of flames between heaven and earth to gradually mature! Back in the day, I was fortunate enough to see it once, but at that time, I hadn't reached the realm I am in now, so I wasn't blessed to enjoy it.

Unexpectedly, after all these years, I have sensed this familiar scorching aura again," replied the Sacred Flame. But as he spoke, his voice suddenly became excited and agitated.

The Sacred Flame then added, "Once I've devoured this Flame Tree's energy, it will somewhat alleviate the regret I've held in my heart for many years."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Shi Feng shouted to the Sacred Flame using Soul Power.

Shi Feng then turned his head and said to the Black Robed Man, "I sense a Heavenly Earth Spiritual Treasure, follow me!"

After speaking, Shi Feng's figure flickered and vanished from this void.

"Oh?" The Black Robed Man expressed a calm "Oh" upon hearing Shi Feng's words, shortly before she too disappeared, following Shi Feng.

...

"We've actually found this Flame Treasure Tree, hahaha, it seems we didn't come to this Ancient Relic in vain!" Four figures stood beneath a ten-meter high flaming tree, appearing as if blazing flames were burning.

Among these four, there was an elder and three middle-aged individuals, all within the One-star Demigod Realm.

If Shi Feng were here, he would surely find three of them somewhat familiar, while the elder was unmistakably known to him.

Above the elder's head hovered an overturned ancient bowl, it was none other than Elder Ji from the powerful tribe.

The ancient bowl suspended above him was the Heavenly Gang Ancient Bowl that Shi Feng once loathed immensely! From the mouth of the bowl, starlight-like rays cascaded down onto Elder Ji.

Standing alongside Elder Ji were three others: Clan Leader Huang Xi of the Phoenix Clan.

Power Clan Patriarch Yinn Zheng.

Full Moon Tribe Clan Leader Yuel Chen.

Back then, they were also together with the crowd.

However, upon learning that the young man in the crowd was Gongsun Yuan, whose fame they had heard of, the four of them seized the opportunity amid chaos and gradually detached from the crowd.

After fortuitous encounters and overcoming great perils, they arrived at this Flame Land.

By chance, they saw this Flame Tree and after a fierce battle with a Flame Fierce Beast guarding the Flame Tree, they managed to kill the beast after much hardship.

At this moment, Elder Ji, protected by the Heavenly Gang Ancient Bowl, looked somewhat better.

The three clan leaders bore multiple wounds across their bodies, their clothes tattered and stained with fresh blood.

Yet, beholding this Flame Tree and feeling the pure and scorching energy it emanated, they now deemed every prior hardship worth enduring.

"Although my cultivation isn't of Flame Power, absorbing the pure energy from this Flame Tree quickly transforms into my physical strength!"

Continuously absorbing the energy radiating from the Flame Tree, Power Clan Patriarch Yinn Zheng spoke joyfully.

The warriors of the Power Clan are known for their strength, inherently possessing divine power, focusing on cultivating their physical bodies.

After Yinn Zheng finished speaking, Full Moon Tribe Clan Leader Yuel Chen also nodded and said, "Even my Moonlight Demigod Power is noticeably improving!"

"Originally, I thought only those cultivating Flame Power like myself would benefit from this Flame Tree. I hadn't anticipated sharing it with you,"

Clan Leader Huang Xi of the Phoenix Clan spoke upon hearing them, his face still displaying a smile, revealing no displeasure.

"Well then! Since we discovered this tree together, we should share it together!" Elder Ji from the Great Tribe also spoke.

Then Elder Ji said again, "I feel like, after absorbing this pure scorching energy, the bottleneck I've struggled to break through for many years seems to be loosening."

"What!"

"What!"

"What!"

As soon as Elder Ji finished speaking, the other three simultaneously exclaimed in surprise, faces showing disbelief, at which point Clan Leader Huang Xi said:

"You should have already reached the One-star Demigod Peak, if your bottleneck is loosening, does that mean you're about to enter... Two-star... Demigod!"

Huang Xi spoke still somewhat incredulously.

In the vast wilderness they were in, despite countless living beings, those who could achieve the Two-star Demigod level were few and far between.

As far as people know, including the mysterious Gongsun Taiyin, only twelve people reached the Two-star Demigod Realm and are known as the twelve great warriors in that vast wilderness.

Naturally, the first was Great Wilderness City Lord Gongsun Taiyin!

Following him was the sinister Mountain Witch Clan Leader, ranking second.

The late Bai Ya of the Black Crow Clan, whose father Bai Jun, ranked third.

Demon King Black Jiao of the Barbaric Demon Mountain ranked sixth.

Ranked twelfth was Shen Wu, the Mountain Witch Clan genius whom the Black Robed Man urged Shi Feng to fight!

Yet these rankings were mere speculations; true strength and weakness would only be known through genuine combat.

Despite having fought before and decided victories, as the years passed, people would continually break through or have new adventures, causing actual strength to constantly shift.

Upon hearing Huang Xi's words, a faint smile appeared on Elder Ji's old face. He nodded and said:

"I can feel that as long as I'm absorbing the pure energy from this Flame Tree, my bottleneck will continue to loosen. What once was a blur concerning the Two-star Demigod Realm is now slowly becoming tangible."

"This Flame Tree has such a marvelous use, truly a heavenly treasure! This tree is unknown how many times more precious than a Demigod Artifact!" Huang Xi exclaimed upon hearing Elder Ji's confirmation.

Then his gaze focused once more on the Flame Tree ahead.

"In that case, in our vast wilderness, there won't just be twelve great warriors, but rather thirteen!" Power Clan Patriarch Yinn Zheng teasingly commented to Elder Ji with a smile.

"Haha!" Elder Ji chuckled upon hearing Yinn Zheng's words and said, "With this treasure tree, everyone can cultivate well; in the future, we all have chances!"

"I think none of you will have chances!" At this moment, a sudden youthful and clear voice echoed in this world.

This abrupt voice was extremely jarring to the four beneath the Flame Tree!
