Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 556 – Jackpot



Chapter 556 – Jackpot

Chen Fan was speechless. He had taken the risk to enter the Fire Apes’ territory, yet Nie Tao wasn’t letting up. If the Fire Apes discovered them, they both would die.

He suddenly smiled coldly. Since Nie Tao was so relentless, he would use this opportunity against him.

He immediately rubbed his palms together, forming the Heaven Piercing Spear. He hurled it toward a young Fire Ape, who was in the Yuanfu realm.

Next, he quickly withdrew his aura, suppressing it using the Heaven Seizing Furnace, and plunged, like he was diving into water.

Puchi!

The Heaven Piercing Spear, carrying terrifying rotational power, turned that young Fire Ape into a mist of blood. The nearby Fire Apes were all stunned.

But this act of aggression was like lighting a powder keg.

Roar!”

Roar, roar!”

Roar, roar, roar!”

The Fire Apes were enraged,

They were completely furious!

Someone had dared to invade their territory and kill one of their own.

Their roars filled the sky, and their flames burned even more fiercely as they pounded their chests in anger.

These Fire Apes immediately caught sight of Nie Tao and assumed he was the attacker. They charged at him like a swarm of fiery meteors.

Nie Tao quickly realized the situation. The madness in his eyes faded, replaced by resentment. He noticed that Chen Fan's aura had completely vanished.

Chen Fan, as still as a stone, had withdrawn his aura entirely and plunged downward.

Because his aura was withdrawn, those Fire Apes did not sense him. They only sensed Nie Tao and rushed toward him, their murderous qi overwhelming, intent on tearing him apart.

Nie Tao cursed out loud. Chen Fan had cunningly used the Fire Apes against him.

Under normal circumstances, Nie Tao wouldn’t fear facing these apes. He could easily escape. However, his true primeval was nearly exhausted. He was running on empty.

The Fire Ape King, on the other hand, was a five-revolution Golden Core realm beast. With the other Fire Apes, Nie Tao would be surrounded and beaten to death if caught.

“Ahhh, Chen Fan, you beast! We’re absolutely irreconcilable!” Nie Tao roared in indignant fury and turned to flee.

However, the Fire Apes were already thoroughly enraged. They were rushing over in groups.

The Fire Ape King, moving with incredible speed like a flaming lightning bolt, reached Nie Tao’s back in an instant. It raised its millstone-sized flaming fist and smashed it down at his back.

Since they hadn’t sensed Chen Fan, all their fury was concentrated on Nie Tao. They wanted to kill him to avenge that young Fire Ape.

When Nie Tao sensed the terrifying attack aimed at his back, his expression changed drastically. He quickly turned around and channeled what little true primeval he had left to his right hand and punched.

With a rumble, Nie Tao flew back, shattering a mountain into pieces.

However, the Fire Apes would not let him go just like that and rushed toward him again.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan let out a sigh of relief as he quickly descended.

As soon as he landed, the ground suddenly collapsed. Chen Fan was caught completely off guard and fell in.

Chen Fan climbed up to his feet, covered in dirt. He dusted himself off and looked up, feeling speechless.

Was his luck that bad? He just landed from the sky and happened to step on a fragile spot on the ground, falling into the hole.

Ptooi, ptooi.” Chen Fan spat out the wild grass in his mouth. This year was simply bad luck for him.

He scanned his surroundings and discovered a passageway. Weeds were overgrown in front of the passageway. Chen Fan’s eyes flickered, and he walked over.

Soon, his field of vision widened.

A large paddy field appeared in his sight.

Yes, it was a verdant paddy field. A large swathe of rice ears swayed in the wind.

When Chen Fan saw this scene, it was as if he had seen a ghost. He never thought there would be such a completely different world down here. Someone actually planted rice here.

However, he also noticed that, unlike ordinary rice, the rice ears in this paddy field were crimson and shaped like a winding dragon.

Each crop of rice only had one rice ear, and the rice ear only grew a single grain of rice.

Chen Fan took a deep breath. He immediately sensed his insides growing restless, as if the blood-colored rice were fatally attractive to him.

He immediately realized that these rice ears were not ordinary.

He strode over, plucked off a rice ear, and extracted the grain of rice. He discovered that the rice grain was also crimson, translucent, and shaped like a true dragon.

The grain of rice was three inches long and one inch wide. It wasn’t big but was as heavy as a block of iron.

As he examined it closely, his restlessness grew even more intense. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Chen Fan. He remembered a name: Dragon Blood Rice.

“This is... Dragon Blood Rice!”

He saw records about the Dragon Blood Rice in one of the ancient books in the Spring Autumn Sect.

This was a very rare and precious variety of rice. It only grew in places with large amounts of a true dragon’s divine blood or next to a dragon’s tomb.

This kind of rice grew by absorbing the blood of a true dragon and their qi. Each crop produced a single ear of rice, bearing just one grain of Dragon Blood Rice. These grains were incredibly valuable, containing the power of a true dragon’s bloodline.

Consuming Dragon Blood Rice for a long period would not only slowly imbue a person with a true dragon’s bloodline, but also strengthen their physique, granting them some qualities of a true dragon.

Typically, martial artists stopped eating regular food after breaking through to the Yuanfu realm.

Their life-sustaining energy transitioned from food to primeval qi, elixirs, and primeval stones. They could go without food for a hundred years without issue.

Moreover, ordinary food couldn’t meet the energy needs of martial artists, regardless of how much they consumed.

This gave rise to the old saying, "Those who consume qi are undying like gods."

Dragon Blood Rice was different, however. They contained the energy of a true dragon’s bloodline and could temper one’s flesh. Consuming it over a prolonged period would make someone's flesh unimaginably strong, eventually rivaling that of a true dragon.

“What a jackpot, what heavenly luck I have. I didn’t expect to pick up such great benefits. I must be the favorite child of heaven and earth!”

Chen Fan nearly burst out in laughter.

It would not be easy for his Myriad Elephants Divine Art to break through to the fifteenth layer.

He had killed many demonic beasts that possessed a trace of a true dragon’s bloodline. Refining their blood had loosened the Myriad Elephants Divine Art bottleneck, but it was still far from enough.

Originally, Chen Fan had somewhat given up on it. He had planned to borrow the powers of his heavenly tribulation to advance his Myriad Elephants Divine Art when he broke through to the Divine Nascent realm. But now, with this Dragon Blood Rice, there was great hope.
