Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 82 - Ginseng Fruit



Chapter 82 - Ginseng Fruit

“Roar!”

Chen Fan's palm had provoked the ferocious nature of the crocodile demon beast. The attack had made it bleed, split its skin, and torn its flesh. In the pool, its mighty tail twisted, propelling its massive figure toward the shore.

Pish!

The crocodile demon beast unleashed a water ball from its gaping maw—it exploded as soon as it was mere inches away from Chen Fan.

The water droplets scattered in all directions like steel marbles with a terrifying force behind them.

Chen Fan’s primeval qi surged, forming a shield of primeval qi to protect him.

These water droplets, harder than steel marbles, collided with the primeval qi shield, producing loud banging noises. The shield developed cracks from the repeated impacts; fortunately, it held firm, not breaking apart.

“Roar!”

Seizing the opportunity, the crocodile demon beast leaped up and struck out with its tail. With a loud boom, Chen Fan’s primeval qi shield shattered.

The crocodile’s tail whipped toward Chen Fan’s head like an iron whip. If it hit, even his brain matter would spatter.

“You’re looking to die!”

Chen Fan’s expression turned cold.

He was getting bullied by a crocodile demon beast right after entering the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land. How embarrassing would it be for him if news of it spread?

His arms puffed up as if his tendons turned to steel and his bones to iron, and he unleashed a punch. It collided with the crocodile’s tail; in just a move, he had turned its tail into a bloody mess.

“Die!”

Chen Fan didn’t let up after gaining the advantage. Using his arm like a knife, he struck down at the crocodile's head, decapitating the crocodile demon beast and making fresh blood spray everywhere.

After finishing off the crocodile demon beast, Chen Fan took a deep breath.

As fresh air entered his lungs, Chen Fan’s eyes gleamed in wonder. “The heaven and earth primeval qi in here is so rich! It’s definitely four to five times thicker than the outside world!”

“It’s no wonder this place is called a blessed land. If one were to establish themselves as a ruler of this mountain and cultivate here, their rate of improvement would be several times faster. It could even rival the cultivation speed of demonic cultivators!”

The atmosphere in the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land was saturated with primeval qi.

Inhaling it could prevent illness for ordinary people and provide a refreshing and invigorating experience.

For martial artists, this land was a sanctuary for cultivation—a sacred realm.

“Listen up, disciples of the four great sects. Your mission is to seize the Ice Jade Snow Lotus in the Black Sea Demon Cave. As for the Ice Jade Snow Lotus’ exact location, you must discover it on your own.

“Remember, once you obtain the Ice Jade Snow Lotus, refrain from stashing it in your storage pouch or ring. Anyone violating this rule will face immediate elimination.

“You have fifteen days to train in the blessed land. After that, the possessor of the Ice Jade Snow Lotus will emerge as the ultimate victor and receive it as their reward!”

From the platform at Dragon Mountain Peak, Zhuo Bufan's voice reverberated throughout the blessed land via the primeval mirror, reaching everyone inside with clarity.

“Black Sea Demon Cave, Ice Jade Snow Lotus...”

Chen Fan fell into deep thought after hearing Zhuo Bufan’s announcement.

Prior to entering the blessed land, Zhuo Bufan had provided them with information about the situation within, including details about the Black Sea Demon Cave.

Situated in the northwest region of the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, the Black Sea Demon Cave resided within a desert, with the Black Sea nestled within its expanse.

This inland sea, encompassed by desert, was vast and fed by numerous underground rivers, rendering it a sacred ground for demon beasts.

Almost all the demon beasts in Dragon Mountain Blessed Land treated the Black Sea as a holy land.

As for the Black Sea Demon Cave, it was the sanctum within the holy land. Within it dwelled a formidable Black Flood Dragon, rumored to be as powerful as a cultivator in the Yuanfu realm, one of the strongest of its kind.

For their trip to the blessed land, the leaders of the four great sects had set a mission: to acquire the Ice Jade Snow Lotus from the Black Sea Demon Cave. Undoubtedly, this was a challenging task.

Not only would venturing into the Black Sea expose them to attacks from demon beasts, but confronting the Black Flood Dragon within was truly perilous

Although not true dragons, Black Flood Dragons possessed a trace of dragon bloodline, elevating them to a regal status among demon beasts. Their strength and power far surpassed those of human martial artists at the same cultivation level.

Nevertheless, the ultimate reward was an Ice Jade Snow Lotus, a testament to the great generosity of the four great sects.

A treasure of such high caliber, even a single petal of the lotus, would be an invaluable asset if sold on the market. It could potentially establish a martial clan.

For now, I should only focus on advancing my cultivation. With my current strength, seeking the Ice Jade Snow Lotus in the Black Sea Demon Cave would be like seeking death.

To emerge as the ultimate victor, I must be a Qi Grandmaster. Eighth level won't suffice; I have to be a Qi Grandmaster!

Chen Fan calculated in his mind.

Securing the Ice Jade Snow Lotus was no simple task. A tier two Black Flood Dragon, about as strong as a Yuanfu realm expert, guarded it in the Black Sea Demon Cave. It could easily kill Chen Fan.

Additionally, there was the looming danger presented by Wang Fuchen, Zhong Li, and others.

“I can advance to the eighth level quickly. First, I should look for some demon beasts to kill and further condense the primeval qi in my dantian before attempting the breakthrough.”

After coming up with a plan, Chen Fan jumped off the large tree, scurrying through the forest.

Moments later, the sound of trees snapping came from the forest ahead, accompanied by a noxious odor and a chilling breeze.

A Green Flower Giant Python emerged, its massive form spanning fifty to sixty feet, thicker than a water pail, and capable of dwarfing any Golden Scaled Dragon Python.

The Dragon Mountain Blessed Land nurtured people and fostered demon beasts.

This Green Flower Giant Python stared coldly at Chen Fan with its triangular eyes, emitting a mournful hiss before lunging toward him, exuding a putrid stench.

Chen Fan swiftly evaded like a phantom, channeling power into his fist and delivering a direct blow to the Green Flower Giant Python, obliterating it.

Tier-one demon beasts under the ninth level weren’t a match for him.

Chen Fan swiftly traversed the forest, actively emitting his aura, attracting the attention of the demon beasts within.

He was on a killing spree.

Chen Fan slaughtered these demon beasts, each encounter honing his primeval qi.

Leopards, tigers, lions, giant ants, and numerous other ferocious demon beasts all fell to Chen Fan's prowess.

Three days later, Chen Fan reached a slope and peered into the valley below. His eyes suddenly narrowed.

“Ginseng Fruit!”

Beneath the slope grew an ancient tree bearing a fruit resembling a baby. It was white as jade and exuded a refreshing scent.

The Ginseng Fruit did not bestow immortality or could revive the dead. However, it offered martial artists at the eighth level a hundred percent chance of becoming a Qi Grandmaster.

Moreover, the Ginseng Fruit was also very beneficial to demon beasts. It could greatly increase a demon beast’s intelligence and allow them to speak the human language.

This is great! I’m about to advance to the eighth level, and with this Ginseng Fruit, my chances of becoming a Qi Grandmaster will increase significantly. It will also save me a lot of time. The heavens are truly on my side.

Chen Fan thought, a look of joy gracing his face.
