“Xiaofan, we can leave now that we are both Qi Grandmasters,” Qin Yao said.
Although she had just stepped into the ninth level, her bloodline powers and the Bone Spirit Flame made her feel stronger than ever. She was as strong as a middle to late-stage Qi Grandmaster.
As for Chen Fan, he was undoubtedly strong.
The Blood Ignition Pill had temporarily given him a Qi Grandmaster’s strength, and he could still fight toe-to-toe with Yuanfu realm powerhouses.
Now that he was a true Qi Grandmaster with a reforged physique, he was much stronger despite only being at the early stage of the ninth level.
Chen Fan nodded and said, “Mhm. The fifteen-day time limit is about to close, Senior Sister. I’m sure Wang Fuchen and the others have gone to the Black Sea Demon Cave, so we should head over there and give them a deadly surprise!”
They heard fierce hissing noises as soon as they stepped out of the cave.
The Devil-Faced Spiders had guarded the entrance the entire time. They immediately launched ferocious attacks when they saw Chen Fan and Qin Yao exiting the cave.
The Devil-Faced Spiders’ silk looked soft at a glance, as if a weak tug could tear it, but it was tougher than steel wire. Their spinnerets shot the silk at such high speeds that it pierced the air like an arrow, producing hissing sounds.
Chen Fan snorted and stomped his foot, unleashing his violent aura.
As he executed the Undefeated King’s Fist, loud explosions rumbled, and the silk darting toward him turned into threads.
Qin Yao’s methods were also quite fierce.
Bone Spirit Flames appeared in her palms, and she attacked the spiders with both hands.
The terrifying power of primeval flames erupted. It rumbled through the air with irresistible heat capable of melting gold and iron.
The spider silk immediately melted upon contact.
“Humans, you’re food for me and my descendants!”
A huge Devil-Faced Spider appeared from behind the group of spiders. A terrifying pressure pressed down on the duo, making the air stagnate.
It was a tier-two, first-level Devil-Faced Spider, comparable to first-level Yuanfu realm powerhouses. It was as intelligent as a human and could speak the human tongue.
Chen Fan smiled coldly and replied, “Alright, you death-seeking beast, I’ll slaughter your descendants before killing you to increase my cultivation!”
He turned to look at Qin Yao and asked, “Senior Sister, leave this beast and those two Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spiders to me. You take care of the others. Do you have any problems with that?” Qin Yao shook her head in response.
Chen Fan decided to fight the three strongest of the group, leaving only the Devil-Faced Spiders weaker than Qi Grandmasters for Qin Yao.
There were a lot of weaker ones, but Qin Yao wasn’t too worried as they were weak.
Chen Fan laughed and pounced toward his opponent.
With a swipe of his hand, his primeval qi rolled and transformed into a large hand, clawing at the Devil-Faced Spider King and the two regular ones at the Qi Grandmaster realm.
“You are seeking death, human!”
The Devil-Faced Spider King was furious.
The Devil-Faced Spider King hadn't expected a mere Qi Grandmaster to dare initiate an attack, especially one aimed at the three strongest members of their group. It viewed this act as a blatant display of disregard.
The Devil-Faced Spider King raised one of its steel bar-like legs and stabbed the large hand made of primeval qi. The primeval qi hand exploded with a loud rumble, simultaneously smashing the Devil-Faced Spider King's leg.
The Devil-Faced Spider King cried in pain, clearly caught off guard by the force behind Chen Fan's attack. How was it strong enough to break its leg?
Chen Fan instantly jumped at it. Three heads and six arms materialized behind him, launching a flurry of attacks upon the two Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spiders.
Although these two Devil-Faced Spiders weren’t weak, they were like helpless babies in front of Chen Fan. Large cracks appeared instantly on their hard carapaces, and fresh green blood spewed forth.
Chen Fan shouted, attacking with all his strength.
A punch, brimming with tremendous strength, struck the Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spider to the right of Chen Fan.
It was as if this punch struck a block of tofu, instantly obliterating the Devil-Faced Spider into pieces.
Chen Fan's physique was now so robust that he could fight a Yuanfu realm powerhouse with that alone.
A punch with Chen Fan’s full power could even shake a first-level Yuanfu realm expert, let alone a Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spider.
It was usual for the spider to explode like a balloon from his punch.
Wings appeared on Chen Fan’s back; a strong gale struck the area with a swish. It swept out and blew away the weaker Devil-Faced Spiders, making them roll about on the ground. Chen Fan instantly descended before the other Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spider.
Quickly reacting, this spider shot out its sharp silk, targeting Chen Fan's head. It seemed like Chen Fan had willingly entered the line of fire.
Chen Fan showed no fear. Even grade-two treasures couldn’t harm him easily, so there was no need for him to fear a spider’s silk.
He smacked the spider silk away, reducing it to powder.
However, his palm continued to move even after smacking the silk away. It struck the Devil-Faced Spider, also making it explode like a balloon.
Chen Fan had killed two Qi Grandmaster-level Devil-Faced Spiders in seconds. It looked like he had crushed two ants. The Devil-Faced Spider King couldn’t react to the situation.
“Ah, you damnable human, you actually killed two of my strongest sons! I want you dead! I want you to die from thousands of silk threads stabbing your heart!”
The Devil-Faced Spider King was enraged. It never expected two of its strongest descendants to be killed so swiftly by Chen Fan, blown up to pieces.
Immediately, black spider silk pierced through the air, moving like a black, poisonous snake. The mournful sound of tearing wind resounded nonstop as it flew straight at Chen Fan, aiming to kill him.
The silk the Devil-Faced Spider King had spat out was comparable to grade-one treasures.
Chen Fan didn’t try to dodge the silk. He protected his vitals and allowed the numerous threads of spider silk to land on him. Waves of metal clashing noises rang out, producing sparks from the impact.
“How is this possible?!”
The Devil-Faced Spider King watched as its silk struck Chen Fan, but it appeared to have hit an unbreakable steel plate. The spider was dumbfounded.
The attack failed to even scratch Chen Fan’s skin.
Chen Fan held his palms apart, protecting himself with his qi. Lightning crackled, twisting around him.
He took three steps forward, each step bold and decisive, his aura majestic, and he punched with both hands.
“Wretched beast, accept your death!”
His cultivation hummed, condensing a furnace above his head.
This was the Heaven Seizing Furnace’s embryo, a step away from fully taking shape. If he refined this Yuanfu realm Devil-Faced Spider King, perhaps he could complete the Heaven Seizing Furnace.
