Chapter 107 - Slightly Lacking

As Chen Fan's primeval qi circulated, the Devil-Faced Spider King's demon core fell into the embryonic Heaven Seizing Furnace deep within his dantian.

Under the furnace's power, it gradually liquefied, unleashing the pure essence of its primeval force.

Swallowing a demon core whole would be suicidal for others, but Chen Fan possessed an extraordinary capability.

Despite the Heaven Seizing Furnace being embryonic, it already had the ability to refine.

The demonic powers contained in the demon beast’s demon core transformed into pure primeval qi of heaven and earth almost instantly under the Heaven Seizing Furnace embryo’s refinement.

Unaware of these details, when Qin Yao saw Chen Fan swallowing the demon core, she immediately expressed her concern. “Xiaofan, why did you do that? Quickly spit it out!”

Chen Fan looked at Qin Yao and revealed a smile. “Don’t worry, Senior Sister. I’ll be fine. I’ll tell you the details after I’m done refining it.”

Boom boom!

The Heaven Seizing Furnace embryo erupted with vigor, lava swirling as it worked on refining the demon core.

It was a Yuanfu realm core and the furnace was still incomplete, so the process couldn't be instantaneous but proceeded rapidly.

Noticing that Chen Fan's aura remained stable, contrary to her expectations, Qin Yao ceased her protest. However, her beautiful eyes remained fixed on Chen Fan, looking deeply worried.

Chaos reigned within Chen Fan, emitting a continuous crackling sound.

As the demon core underwent refinement, large amounts of heaven and earth primeval qi condensed. Deep inside his dantian, his primeval qi took on the hue of lava, transforming his dantian into a molten lava reservoir.

Within the depths of this lava, the embryo of a furnace was growing.

The Heaven Seizing Furnace had started growing sturdily, conquering his dantian.

Chen Fan's acuity, perception, and vitality experienced a sudden and explosive surge.

He could even sense the indomitable icy-cold flame seed burning within Qin Yao's dantian, exuding a potent destructive aura—the Bone Spirit Flame.

Thunderous crackles emanated from Chen Fan, and his aura escalated sharply. A force field appeared from him, expanding and distorting the surrounding air.

The pure primeval qi, produced from the demon core's refinement, flowed into the Heaven Seizing Furnace embryo, fueling its growth. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

The embryo absorbed vast quantities of primeval qi, growing increasingly volatile. As the primeval qi surged, the aura of the surrounding primeval qi—now looking like lava—rose even more, like a volcano about to erupt.

Chen Fan's aura became stronger, so the qi wave emanating from him also grew stronger. Under its impact, Qin Yao had to shield herself with a layer of primeval qi.

The qi wave did manage to destroy the Devil-Faced Spider corpses and the surrounding rocks.

If one looked deep inside Chen Fan’s dantian, one would see that the Heaven Seizing Furnace embryo had turned dark gold. Ancient patterns adorned its surface, and divine inscriptions were etched into its being.

Even though he trusted Qin Yao, he deemed it wise to keep this secret from as many people as possible, including her father.

After all, he was currently too weak.

“Senior Sister, I’ll tell you when I am strong.”

“Mmm, alright, but Xiaofan, swallowing a demon core is a serious matter. Don’t talk about it with others, okay?” Qin Yao warned.

Chen Fan nodded and smiled, “I know what I should or should not do.”

“Alright then. Let’s leave this place now.”

“Sure.”

The two exited the Devil-Faced Spider nest, cultivating as they walked while searching for an exit.

......

Chen Fan vaulted into the air, unleashing a Vajra Seal that struck a tier-one, ninth-level demon beast—a five-meter-long pangolin—making it vomit blood and die. He then plucked a few fist-sized green fruits from a dangerous cliff.

These fruits were about the size of his fist, looking like they were carved out of emerald, teeming with primeval qi.

“Xiaofan, this is an Emerald Jade Fruit. It can be sold for a hundred primeval stones outside,” Qin Yao said, smiling.

As an Alchemist, she recognized the fruit and listed its beneficial effects, particularly its ability to strengthen martial artists’ physiques.

Chen Fan didn’t consume it; instead, he gave it to Qin Yao. Emerald Jade Fruits were of little help to him but would be more beneficial for her.

For two days, they navigated the surroundings for an exit, encountering formidable demon beasts and stumbling upon various natural treasures. Though not high-grade, the abundance of these treasures promised a lucrative fortune once sold.

Both of them had storage rings, so they kept the treasures inside their storage rings.

The Dragon Mountain Blessed Land lived up to its name, teeming with abundant treasures. As they traveled, they harvested treasures, like they were picking up berries from the ground, enjoying and never getting tired of the experience.

Of course, their cultivation also improved greatly.

Chen Fan consolidated his cultivation at the middle-stage of the Qi Grandmaster realm, while Qin Yao also became a middle-stage Qi Grandmaster, improving her strength greatly.

As they searched, Chen Fan and Qin Yao discovered a treacherous crack where a mountain stream flowed. Emerging on the other side, illuminated by moonlight, they saw a swift river—the same one where Chen Fan encountered Mu Chen.

“We’re out, Senior Sister. We’ve finally made our way out!”

Chen Fan couldn’t help but let out an excited cheer when he saw the surging river.

I’m out, Wang Fuchen. I’m still alive! Wash your neck clean, and wait for me!
