Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 616 - Nine-Revolutions Golden Core

“Heck, you old bastard, you’d better not let me escape, or I’ll definitely wipe out your entire clan!” Chen Fan’s anger flared instantly. He couldn't tolerate anyone threatening his family.

Old Ancestor Qiu’s expression became even colder as he stared fixedly at Chen Fan. He unleashed a divine light that sealed off all possible escape routes.

Left without a choice, Chen Fan had to brace himself, turn around, and launch a palm strike to defend.

However, the terrifying force nearly knocked him down from the sky. He spewed a large mouthful of blood, feeling his bones creaking as if on the verge of breaking.

This was the best Chen Fan could do. Anyone else in his position would have been blown apart, but Chen Fan, like a cockroach, fought and fled tenaciously.

After what felt like an eternity, Chen Fan seemed to have flown out of Shunan Prefecture’s border. Along the way, Old Ancestor Qiu’s constant bombardment had ripped almost all the feathers on Chen Fan’s Wings of Rain Dragon, greatly reducing his speed.

If he hadn’t fled with all his might, Old Ancestor Qiu would have caught up to him long ago and brought him down.

Now, Chen Fan was on his last legs.

He had fought Qiu Lang with all his strength and had long since exhausted his stamina.

Old Ancestor Qiu’s relentless chase was only increasing his fatigue. His golden core had lost its brilliance and was now very dim.

Yet, Chen Fan did not dare to stop to recover, as Old Ancestor Qiu was still pursuing him relentlessly.

Rumble!

Suddenly, Chen Fan saw a large mountain range in the distance; in the skies above that, two peerless beasts were fighting fiercely. Their fight had stolen the brilliance from the sun and the moon.

The beasts’ aura reached Chen Fan, making his heart pound violently. They were as powerful as Old Ancestor Qiu.

“Damn it, let’s see if you’ll keep chasing!” A fierce glint flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes. He flew straight toward the battling beasts.

Despite the extreme danger and the risk of getting caught in their clash—possibly even killed—Chen Fan was at the end of his rope and had no choice but to take this gamble.

He knew he couldn’t escape unless he did something drastic. Eventually, Old Ancestor Qiu would catch up if he didn’t act.

Old Ancestor Qiu also saw the two beasts fighting above the mountain range. The powerful auras spread far and wide, momentarily freezing his heart and making him slow down.

He had expected Chen Fan to either stop or flee in another direction upon seeing the battle. Instead, Chen Fan was darting toward it, making Old Ancestor Qiu’s expression darken.

“Damn it, that little bastard...” Realizing Chen Fan’s intentions, he couldn’t help but curse in his heart.

“Hmph, you won’t get away!” Old Ancestor Qiu hesitated momentarily but decided to give chase. He was determined not to let him escape.

“This old coot is really not afraid of death!” Chen Fan smiled coldly inside.

Rumble!

Not far ahead, two second-level Divine Nascent realm ferocious beasts fought with such intensity that the stars seemed to shatter and the ground sank. Their battle unleashed a terrifying aura, creating storms that swept several kilometers away.

Chen Fan began to withdraw his aura gradually as he flitted ahead frantically.

Behind him, Old Ancestor Qiu’s expression grew increasingly grim.

His own powerful aura posed a risk—if it clashed with the ferocious beasts’ auras, they might turn their attention to him, leading to a disastrous situation for him.

“Damn it! Damn it! That little bastard is a lunatic. Instead of avoiding the battle, he’s heading straight for them. Is he trying to get himself killed? Damn it!”

Old Ancestor Qiu feared provoking the beasts and risking his own safety. If he angered them, he might not only fail to kill Chen Fan but could also end up sacrificing his own life. It wasn’t worth the risk.

Noticing that Old Ancestor Qiu had stopped his pursuit, Chen Fan released a sigh of relief.

He really didn’t want to rush into the battle zone of the ferocious beasts—it would be like courting death.

Fortunately, Old Ancestor Qiu was a bit more cautious than him and stopped his pursuit, allowing Chen Fan to breathe a sigh of relief. He immediately withdrew his aura completely and flitted downward into the mountain range.

Seeing Chen Fan diving into the mountain range, Old Ancestor Qiu’s gaze turned icy.

“Damned bastard, you won’t get away. You’ll definitely die!” Cold killing intent burst out from his eyes. Old Ancestor Qiu turned around and retraced his steps, determined not to let Chen Fan escape so easily.

He planned to return to Shunan Prefecture, spend a fortune on hiring helpers, and then sweep through the mountain range to flush Chen Fan out and kill him.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan couldn’t afford to worry about Old Ancestor Qiu finding reinforcements. His immediate priority was to heal his injuries as quickly as possible.

He moved swiftly through the mountain range, like a ghost, venturing further in.

Although the deeper regions were home to powerful demonic beasts, the more dangerous the area, the safer it was from pursuers.

......

In a cave, Chen Fan laid down a boundary and began recuperating.

Two days later, the injuries on Chen Fan were pretty much fully healed.

“Hunt me down? Hmph, this matter is not over, Qiu Clan...”

A chilling light flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes. He took out Qiu Lang’s corpse and tossed it into the Heaven Seizing Furnace to refine it.

Qiu Lang’s bloodline, a mix of Vicious Hell Wolf and a touch of the Wolf God’s power, could increase his power after he refined and absorbed it.

“All primeval stones, burn!”

To advance his cultivation, Chen Fan needed an enormous amount of energy. Fortunately, he had an ample supply of primeval stones.

He burned them all in one go, generating a massive amount of energy. It was equivalent to what more than ten Divine Nascent realm experts would need to advance.

The torrent of energy surged into Chen Fan like a tidal wave, making him swell up and unleashing terrifying fluctuations.

The rolling energy rushed madly through his meridians like the Yangtze River. Chen Fan channeled his cultivation technique with all his might, pushing the Heaven Seizing Furnace to its limits.

His aura also erupted in an instant, boiling over.

Boom, crack!

Chen Fan instantly advanced to the eight-revolution Golden Core realm, but his aura did not stop boiling.

He had refined not only the trace of Wolf God’s power from Qiu Lang but also burned countless primeval stones. That was enough to propel a Yuanfu realm martial artist to the Nine Revolutions of the Golden Core realm.

Boom, boom, boom!

Chen Fan’s aura churned and fluctuated like a turbulent stream.

He put all his effort into refining the energy, progressing toward the nine-revolution Golden Core realm.

Time passed in a flash, and another three days passed.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a gate seemed to burst open inside Chen Fan. His aura erupted, breaking through the boundaries he had laid down.

Inside Chen Fan, his true primeval energy surged in his meridians as if it had actual substance. It was like numerous thick chains supporting his body, making him mighty like a mountain.

“Nine-revolution Golden Core... Just one step away from the Divine Nascent realm!”

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, a fierce light bursting out.
