In the vast forest, a dense crowd of village women who initially came to watch the excitement stood silently.
The surroundings were eerily silent, and the forest, under the increasingly intense sun, was filled with a tense atmosphere of suspense.
Shu Ci slowly emerged from Baili An's embrace, glanced calmly at the charred remains of the old Taoist who had turned to ash, then disinterestedly looked away.
Or rather, it wasn't disinterest, but an innate indifference to life.
The fierce fire that recently soared to the sky turned to ashes with the old Taoist.
In the prolonged silent atmosphere, Baili An slowly turned around and smiled faintly: "But I misunderstood Taoist Huang. It turns out Taoist Huang was indeed an ancient Immortal, and this trial by fire has triggered such a celestial phenomenon, manifesting the aspect of transcending into an Immortal. Truly, congratulations are in order."
Is this something worth celebrating?
The person has turned into charcoal!
