Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1037 - Fire Spirit

Ji Hanyou’s message came as a surprise to Chen Fan; it left him with a better impression of her.

Chen Fan asked Qin Yao, “Senior Sister, what’s your relationship with Ji Hanyou?”

Qin Yao glanced at Chen Fan doubtfully and said with a vague smile, “What, are you interested in her?”

“You’re overthinking, Senior Sister.” Chen Fan couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Women were truly jealous creatures—he’d only asked a simple question, yet she was already reading into it.

He said, “Ji Hanyou just sent me a voice transmission, informing me of the situation in the ancestral grounds.”

Qin Yao nodded and said, “She’s my cousin. My mother is her aunt.”

“I see.” Chen Fan understood.

The nine divisions walked together for a while before splitting up in different directions

He noticed that each division’s top young expert had a Greater Peak Manifestation realm Dao Protector, while the rest shared one among several.

The peak Manifestation realm had two stages: Lesser and Greater.

Those in the Lesser Peak began perceiving the power of laws, while those in the Greater Peak could already sense and even wield them to some extent.

Evidently, the Ji Clan attached great importance to its top talents; otherwise, the divisions wouldn’t have assigned such powerful Dao Protectors to them.

With these nine Greater Peak Manifestation realm experts as Dao Protectors, the nine top geniuses would have very high chances of completing the second awakening of their bloodline. They could even reach the bottom of the Chinese parasol tree or step on it, gaining an opportunity to obtain the phoenix’s blessing.

This came as no surprise. The Ji Clan had many people, but few had awakened their bloodline and even fewer had experienced a second awakening. And all of them were pillars of the Ji Clan, ensuring its continued glory.

“Senior Sister, let’s get going as well.”

Chen Fan gazed at that Chinese parasol tree, a sharp light flickering in his eyes.

If Qin Yao could achieve her second awakening, her status in the Ji Clan would change drastically.

Even those who committed capital offenses were spared if they had achieved a second awakening, as history proved that every second-awakened bloodline holder had become an Invincible Legendary realm apex expert.

How could the Ji Clan not treat a future Invincible Legendary realm with the utmost importance?

Qin Yao nodded, and her expression became resolute.

Her goal was to achieve a second awakening in her bloodline. As for heading underneath the Chinese parasol tree and obtaining the phoenix’s blessing, although tempting, she understood that it would be extremely difficult.

After all, Chen Fan was only in the seventh-level Manifestation realm. Even though he had mastered the power of law, his cultivation level was there for all to see.

At the most, he could fight against a Lesser Peak Manifestation realm expert, but Greater Peak Manifestation realm fire spirits guarded the parasol tree. She wouldn’t let him risk his life for her.

This was precisely why the Ji Clan had sent Dao Protectors—without them, the younger generation wouldn’t survive the ancestral grounds’ relentless dangers.

In front of them was a flaming desert region, vast and boundless. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Finally, Chen Fan saw a few fire spirits appear.

Fire leopards were scattered throughout the area. Golden flames burned on them, and their forms were pure flames.

When they saw the humans, they pounced at them acting purely on instinct. Despite possessing a wisp of spirit, they remained unenlightened, treating the humans as prey.

The experts of the nine divisions swept a glance at these fire leopard fire spirits and said to the juniors, “Go on.”

These fire spirits’ cultivations weren’t high, some were even in the Heavenly Star realms. They couldn’t threaten the juniors of the nine divisions, so the experts didn’t have to step in.

Even though they were Dao Protectors, they would only step in if the juniors couldn’t deal with the fire spirits themselves.

“I’ll do it myself,” Qin Yao said to Chen Fan. Her figure sprang forth, lunging toward a fire spirit ahead.

Boom!

As Qin Yao lunged forward, she released incomparably resplendent golden flames. A divine radiance erupted from her.

She was like a divine furnace of the Great Dao. Her steps were unusually fast as she darted toward a fire spirit.

The fire spirit before her, though mindless, carried the aura of a first-level Manifestation realm—akin to a Dao fire born of heaven and earth.

However, Qin Yao did not hesitate and rushed toward it. She struck, and as the fire spirit roared and lunged, a terrifying vortex formed around her, binding it completely. In an instant, she refined the fire spirit and absorbed it.

Meanwhile, across the battlefield, the other juniors had also begun using their techniques to refine the fire spirits. The most striking among them were the number one figures of the nine divisions’ younger generation, such as Ji Hanyou.

Their flames were overwhelming, resembling battle gods. Wherever they moved, fire spirits were effortlessly devoured, offering no resistance, as if they were mere scraps of tinder.

The nine of them, as the top geniuses of the Ji Clan, had received focused nurturing from their respective divisions. Their cultivations were all very powerful, being in the high-level Manifestation realm.

The fire spirits in this desert, though abundant, posed no challenge to them.

Ji Hanyou and the others refined and absorbed many spirits. Chen Fan sensed that their auras had become stronger.

These entities not only awakened the Ji Clan’s bloodline power but also enhanced cultivation.

Take Qin Yao, for example. Her cultivation was at the lower rung among them. After refining a fire spirit, her aura had noticeably grown stronger, much more than Ji Hanyou and the others.

Chen Fan could not help but sigh emotionally. An overlord-class force indeed—their foundations were terrifying. Even their ancestral grounds could endlessly produce powerful descendants.

Suddenly, Chen Fan asked the experts of the nine divisions, “Seniors, may I also refine these fire spirits?”

The gazes of the nine divisions’ experts immediately narrowed. Next, Chen Fan sensed their divine wills colliding. Moments later, someone said, “You may.”

“Many thanks to Seniors.” Chen Fan cupped his fists before reaching out.

A massive hand grasped forward—fire spirits were caught instantly, refined, and absorbed into the Heaven Seizing Furnace.
