Chapter 109 - Black Sea Demon Cave

“Hey, are you done complaining?”

Chen Fan interrupted the ceaseless chatter of the Burning Incense Valley disciple. His powerful aura descended, suppressing the person like a mountain.

Feeling the formidable aura, the disciple stiffened and hastily looked up, pleading for mercy. “Don’t kill me, don’t kill me! I don’t want to die yet.”

Rolling his eyes, Chen Fan retracted his aura. “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. I just want to ask you a few questions.”

He was never one to kill the innocent indiscriminately.

He would only show no mercy to his enemies and would consider every possible means to exact revenge. That was what Chen Fan was like.

“Ah, you’re not killing me! That’s great! What do you want to ask? Just go ahead and ask whatever. I won’t hide anything from you,” said the Burning Incense Valley disciple eagerly, relieved.

Chen Fan asked, “How many days are left until the end of the training at Dragon Mountain Blessed Land?”

Although Chen Fan and Qin Yao had survived jumping off the Scarlet Cliff, they had lost consciousness when they fell, so they were unaware of how they reached the dragon blood pool or the duration of their stay.

“Ah, there are still five days left,” blurted the Burning Incense Valley disciple, afraid Chen Fan would get offended and kill him if he answered slowly.

Chen Fan nodded and asked, “How many people have broken through to the Yuanfu realm in Dragon Mountain Blessed Land?”

They had spent four to five days in the spider’s nest. During this period, those fortunate enough might have stumbled upon opportunities, resulting in a surge in their cultivation.

It was also possible that someone had broken their shackles and stepped into the Yuanfu realm, like Zhong Li.

The disciple replied, “As far as I know, it seems Wang Fuchen is still the only one, but Zhong Li, Chu Qing, and Xuan Feixue all seemed to have gone into secluded cultivation somewhere. They should have obtained something great.”

Those three were Qi Grandmaster experts from the three great sects. After ten days in Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, they must have obtained plenty of benefits.

They would try to raise their cultivation levels to contest the Ice Jade Snow Lotus and their final rankings.

They were only a step away from the Yuanfu realm. They might have obtained precious herbs or fruits, enabling them to break through.

“One last question.”

Chen Fan’s gaze suddenly turned sharp like a sword, piercing into this Burning Incense Valley disciple’s mind, making him feel like thousands of swords stabbed his heart.

He very much wanted to witness Wang Fuchen's face upon exiting the Black Sea Demon Cave with the lotus but seeing him outside.

What would Wang Fuchen look like after he had snatched the lotus from him?

“Alright, I’ll come with you,” Qin Yao said.

Chen Fan accepted her assistance readily.

Qin Yao was strong, and when confronting Wang Fuchen, she could handle the other disciples from the Floating Cloud Sword Sect.

With their decision made, the duo confirmed their direction and sped off.

......

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Two figures traversed the moonlit landscape, swiftly passing through rivers, paths, forests, lakes, grasslands, swamps, and deep mountains. Along the way, they encountered astonished onlookers.

Chen Fan and Qin Yao hurried toward the Black Sea Demon Cave, determined to make Wang Fuchen pay dearly. Their goal was to render Wang Fuchen's efforts in obtaining the Ice Jade Snow Lotus futile.

“The Black Sea Desert is just ahead!”

After a night-long run, Chen Fan finally spotted the expansive desert on the horizon.

The yellow sand stretched for miles, adorned with countless dunes and mountains, creating a desolate landscape.

Various vegetation, including towering cacti, cereus, and Eyries Cactuses, populated the desert. Some cacti rivaled the height of multiple individuals stacked together, resembling sky-reaching trees. The Eyries Cactuses surpassed the size of houses.

Chen Fan extended his senses slightly and discovered some hidden demon qi deep in the desert.

Beneath the sand, demon beasts lurked, including snakes, poisonous scorpions, desert centipedes, venomous insects, sand foxes, and sand wolves.

However, these demon beasts were all very low leveled, only at tier-one, third- or fourth-level. They didn’t have the qualifications to cultivate inside the Black Sea Demon Cave.

Chen Fan did not pay attention to these weak demon beasts or waste any time on them. He and Qin Yao charged into the desert, charged into the desert's depths, searching for the Black Sea Demon Cave.

Armed with a rough map of Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, they swiftly navigated based on the markings on it.
