Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 559 - Cultivation Skyrocketed

As Chen Fan began to refine the Dragon Marrow’s energy, an incomparably abundant power instantly rushed into his limbs and skeleton. A soothing feeling washed over him, nearly making him cry out in relief.

The Dragon Marrow, which evolved from a spirit vein that had absorbed a true dragon’s divine blood, was incredibly vast in energy, despite its relatively small size.

Refining the Dragon Marrow was akin to refining an entire spirit vein. While it wasn’t one of the massive ones, even a smaller spirit vein held terrifying power. If word of this spread, it would cause a major stir.

As Chen Fan absorbed the Dragon Marrow’s energy, his aura began boiling fiercely like water. This attempt at a breakthrough was more intense than any other.

Chen Fan spent every second of the next month refining the Dragon Marrow’s energy. The vast energy surged through him, making his aura soar, with qi waves radiating outward continuously.

He was struck by lightning when he was in the Qigong realm, which gave him heavenly opportunity. However, every step in his cultivation path had been countless times harder than others since then.

His progress was much more solid but also required exponentially more resources—sometimes ten to a hundred times more than others.

However, once he made a breakthrough, he could defeat opponents far above his level with ease, making it common for him to challenge those a few levels higher.

How else could he fight Nie Tao, a five-revolution Golden Core realm supreme expert, while being at the peak of the ninth level?

Although he suffered heavy injuries as a result, he kept his life and was still jumping about healthily. He even obtained such a huge opportunity here.

He invested a lot in his cultivation; correspondingly, he also gained a lot.

Chen Fan circulated his cultivation fiercely, his aura spilling out uncontrollably like a water pail filled to the brim and overflowing. He was having difficulty managing all that energy.

He couldn’t even withdraw his aura into the Heaven Seizing Furnace now. Unlike his previous breakthroughs in safe and quiet places, this location was far from secure.

The Fire Apes' mountain valley was directly above, and the disturbance caused by his breakthrough would likely attract their attention, leading to trouble.

However, Chen Fan had no choice but to continue. If he interrupted his breakthrough now, all his efforts would be wasted, and he would even be at risk of qi deviation.

Moreover, if he succeeds, it would not matter even if the band of Fire Apes sensed him.

He wouldn’t have to fear them then, not even the Fire Ape King, who was as strong as a five-revolution Golden Core realm expert.

Chen Fan focused on breaking through as quickly as possible before the Fire Apes noticed him. His aura steadily climbed, making the surrounding space shake and distort under the pressure.

Soon, he sensed the barrier of the one-revolution Golden Core realm. He immediately called forth his true primeval, which was like a flood, and smashed violently into it. With a rumble, the barrier instantly collapsed from the impact like a piece of paper.

The flood water found a path forward and surged wildly. Meanwhile, Chen Fan’s aura also reached a brand-new realm, the one-revolution Golden Core realm.

Yet, Chen Fan’s aura did not stop or wane. Instead, it kept soaring, boiling, and erupting.

The Dragon Marrow’s energy was too vast.

Although Chen Fan needed a massive amount of energy to achieve his breakthrough, the Dragon Marrow contained more than sufficient energy. He had merely used a third of it to advance to the one-revolution Golden Core realm.

He continued to push his cultivation forward.

Early-stage, one-revolution Golden Core.

Middle-stage, one-revolution Golden Core.

Late-stage, one-revolution Golden Core.

Soon, Chen Fan’s aura doubled. He had reached the peak of the one-revolution Golden Core realm; soon, he advanced to the two-revolution Golden Core realm.

And still, his aura didn’t stop erupting. It continued to boil and rise.

Early-stage, two-revolution Golden Core.

Middle-stage, two-revolution Golden Core.

Late-stage, two-revolution Golden Core.

Just when Chen Fan was about to make another advancement, the Fire Ape King above finally noticed something amiss. Its flaming, beastly eyes shot out two columns of actual fire, piercing through the air.

It roared and charged toward the source of the foreign aura.

The other Fire Apes also stopped whatever they were doing and followed after the Fire Ape King.

Thump, thump, thump!

The band of Fire Apes were like flaming tanks that could run and roar. The earth shook violently as they ran.

Rumble!

At this time, the earth suddenly trembled violently.

The ground where Chen Fan had missed his footing and fallen down from cracked open. The Fire Ape King had burst in, tearing it apart.

Thump!

The Fire Ape King landed heavily, causing the earth to rumble.

Thump, thump, thump!

The other Fire Apes jumped down as well, like the most loyal guards.

With a commanding presence, the Fire Ape King advanced with imposing steps, exuding a fierce and formidable aura as it moved deeper into the cave.

Upon seeing the field of Dragon Blood Rice completely harvested, it roared in fury.

It had come a step too late. The Dragon Blood Rice was harvested by someone else.

It charged forward. Rumbling noises resounded, and soon it saw Chen Fan sitting cross-legged on the ground.

“Roar!” The Fire Ape King let out a roar that shook heaven and earth. The air directly exploded, forming an extremely berserk shockwave that swept toward Chen Fan.

However, before this layer of shockwave could get within ten meters of Chen Fan, it was shattered by the qi waves emitted by him.

“Human, how dare you steal this king’s treasure, die!” The Fire Ape King spoke in human’s tongue.

As an ape-type demonic beast with inherent human genes, it had a high level of intelligence and could speak the human tongue fluently. At five-revolution Golden Core strength, its intelligence was comparable to that of an adult human.

Flames roared around the Fire Ape King as its intelligent eyes glinted with anger. It lunged at Chen Fan, its enormous fist—about the size of a millstone—swinging toward his head.

It sensed a dangerous aura coming from Chen Fan and knew that if it didn’t make a move now, then it and its clan members would be in trouble.

Just as the Fire Ape King’s flaming fist was about to land on Chen Fan, he suddenly opened his eyes and roared fiercely.

The air instantly exploded everywhere. The Fire Ape King was sent flying by the sound waves of the roar, its flames even dimmed slightly.

A shocking aura simultaneously erupted from Chen Fan, sweeping across the lands and the universe. It was simply worlds apart from before.

The aura was so powerful that it made heaven and earth tremble in fear.

An aura that cut across the sky blossomed from Chen Fan.

Finally, he had broken through to the three-revolution Golden Core realm!
