Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 538 - Obtaining the Lotus

Rumble!

Rumbling noises rang out repeatedly in the underground cave.

Chen Fan and Xiao Zhen attacked the Fire-Scaled Beast frenziedly. Terrifying energies surged and swept in space like the waves of the Yangtze River, raising monstrous waves.

However, the Fire-Scaled Beast remained an adversary as terrifying as ever. All their attacks together managed to do was shake it a bit.

“Die, you sinful beast!” Chen Fan’s eyes flashed with a vicious light. He put away the iron spear and brought out the Purgatory Divine Halberd, a Grade-5 treasure much more powerful than the spear. As he swung his arm, a deathly halberd light flashed across space.

The Fire-Scaled Beast cried miserably, as the attack had crushed its scales.

Chen Fan had landed his first injury on the beast. Its magma-like fresh blood flowed out and spilled onto the ground, burning small holes into it.

“Roar!” The Fire-Scaled Beast roared furiously, its ferocious gaze fixed on Chen Fan. Its terrifying claw ripped through space, creating an inescapable net of destruction around him.

Woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

The air was torn apart. A terrifying, invisible force descended, making Chen Fan’s hair stand on end. He felt a grave sense of danger.

“Break!” Chen Fan roared furiously at the critical moment.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

Explosions erupted around him, making his robes flutter wildly. In an instant, his aura surged.

Rumble!

Swinging the Purgatory Divine Halberd, he cut through space.

It was as if a heavenly god had wielded divine judgment in hell, rending space-time apart with a destructive force that swept through the air.

Rumble!

Chen Fan was slammed as if by a mountain, sent flying backward to crash into a rock wall, cracking it open. He felt like he was about to throw up his organs.

However, the Fire-Scaled Beast didn’t have an easy time, either. The halberd had chopped off. Its sharp claws, blood flowing freely from the wound. The impact had also sent the enormous beast flying, leaving behind an opening that exposed the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus.

“Do it, Xiao Zhen. Go get the lotus. I’ll hold back this beast!”

A fierce light shone in Chen Fan’s eyes and he immediately rushed forth again.

They had to use the opening to snatch the lotus. If they let the beast close the gap again, it would become incredibly difficult to get the lotus.

Xiao Zhen flitted toward the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus.

“Roar, roar!”

The Fire-Scaled Beast’s eyes turned red in rage when it saw Xiao Zhen speeding toward the lotus. An incomparably berserk aura spread out from it, shaking the entire cavern.

The beast wanted to attack and kill this abominable human to protect the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus it was guarding.

“Where do you think you’re going, you sinful beast!”

However, Chen Fan couldn’t let it do what it wanted. Gritting his teeth, he pushed his cultivation to the limit, ignoring his tumbling qi and blood. He executed the Strength of Myriad Elephants and struck out violently.

The Purgatory Divine Halberd stabbed out at lightning speed, slicing through the air with chaotic primeval qi tearing in all directions.

The Fire-Scaled Beast instantly felt an incomparably dangerous aura. Although the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus was incredibly important, its own life was paramount.

The Fire-Scaled Beast gave up on attacking Xiao Zhen and directed all of its anger onto Chen Fan.

Opening its jaws wide, the Fire-Scaled Beast spat out a torrent of flames, engulfing the space in an attempt to burn Chen Fan alive.

Feeling the intensity of the fire, Chen Fan’s expression changed slightly. However, he had no choice but to confront it head-on to protect Xiao Zhen.

“Extinguish!”

He swung his arm and streaks of halberd light filled the air, colliding with the Fire-Scaled Beast’s fiery assault.

An enormous explosion immediately boomed. Flames erupted like fireworks, dazzling and deadly.

“Roar!” roared the Fire-Scaled Beast furiously. Streaks of terrifying cold light descended, wanting to rip through everything.

Chen Fan raised the Purgatory Divine Halberd to block.

Dong, dong, dong!

The tremendous force erupted like ancient divine mountains crashing down upon him.

He trembled violently, feeling like his bones were about to turn into dust. He couldn’t hold it in and coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.

Rumble!

The beast’s attack nearly tore Chen Fan in half. Fresh blood-spattered as he was sent flying, crashing onto the cavern’s rock walls.

The Fire-Scaled Beast did not continue attacking Chen Fan. Instead, it quickly turned around and pounced toward Xiao Zhen, determined to prevent him from reaching the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus.

“Die, you beast!” Gritting his teeth, Chen Fan launched himself forward again, just as determined to keep the beast away from Xiao Zhen.

Chen Fan looked like a blood-soaked sponge, but his aura kept surging furiously. The sound of ancient giant elephants hissing rang out as if a heavenly god was descending into the mortal world.

“Die!”

Heaven and earth changed colors as he launched a terrifying stab with his halberd. Even a three-revolution Golden Core supreme expert would perish under this attack.

Enraged by Chen Fan’s interference, the Fire-Scaled Beast seethed with fury. Hot air blasted from its nostrils. If this continued, Xiao Zhen would secure the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus.

However, it also could not just ignore Chen Fan’s attack. The sharpness of a Grade-5 treasure was enough to threaten its life.

“Roar!” roared the Fire-Scaled Beast furiously, channeling its demonic energy into a fiery red finger. Magma was flowing within this finger, emanating an incomparably terrifying aura.

Bang!

The Fire-Scaled Beast and Chen Fan’s attacks collided without any frills.

Chen Fan trembled, and his bones once again asked to be let out from their fleshly prison. He flew backward like a kite with its string cut.

A terrifying force swept over him, making Chen Fan’s protective true primeval blow-up.

Thankfully, Xiao Zhen had finally harvested the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus. He pulled back instantly and grabbed at the empty air, catching Chen Fan. Next, he sped toward the cavern’s exit.

“Roar!” The Fire-Scaled Beast unleashed a furious cry that shook even the sky outside. The Earth Fire Heaven Lotus it had guarded for centuries had been stolen by some two-legged freaks. Mere words couldn’t describe its anger.

Regaining its composure, the Fire-Scaled Beast surged forward like a streak of fiery light, tearing through the air in pursuit. It was determined to reclaim the stolen lotus.

Rumble!

Xiao Zhen was extremely fast. His protective true primeval rubbed fiercely with the air, producing flames. He tore through the darkness like a big ball of flames, quickly rushing out of the cavern and flying into the distance.
