Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1085 - Diving to the Bottom of the Lake

Huo Qi’s overbearing gaze swept across Beishan Xue and the others with unmatched dominance.

“Anyone have an issue? Step up and show your face!”

Beishan Xue and the others’ expressions were incomparably ugly, but they did not make a sound.

Huo Qi nodded in satisfaction at their silence. His attempt at intimidation had succeeded.

“Hmph, that’s how it should be. Natural treasures of heaven and earth should belong to the strong. You don’t deserve the Red Spider Lily.”

In no hurry to pluck the lily, Huo Qi looked at Chen Fan and said with a cold smile, “Hoho, you must be Chen Fan. Your head ranks very high on our holy cult’s must-kill list. Seems my luck’s good today. Not only do I get the Red Spider Lily, but I also run into you. So, will you surrender, or should I capture you myself?”

Chen Fan’s expression changed slightly, not expecting Huo Qi to recognize him. While he was no match for Huo Qi, there was no way he would just surrender.

Before Chen Fan could speak, Huo Qi said, “By your silence, it’s clear you won’t surrender. Well, in that case, I’ll just have to do things the hard way.”

With that, Huo Qi moved to capture Chen Fan. A Red Spider Lily was valuable, but Chen Fan’s position on the must-kill list made him far more valuable. Even a Legendary realm expert might be tempted by the rewards for his capture.

Huo Qi was about to strike, so Chen Fan decided to flee,

Blub.

Bubbling sounds came from the Yellow Spring lake; suddenly, several Red Spider Lilies emerged.

They were still flower buds as they emerged, but they slowly bloomed once they were fully outside.

The vibrant colors looked incredibly dazzling to the crowd.

“Red Spider Lilies!” Everyone exclaimed out loud, including Huo Qi, who paused mid-strike, his eyes narrowing.

One Red Spider Lily wouldn’t have caught his attention, but a cluster, each radiating the aura of law, was impossible to ignore. If used well, they could greatly boost his chances of reaching the Legendary realm quickly.

Beishan Xue and the others’ breathing also became heavy, and their gazes turned fiery.

Although they knew Red Spider Lilies grew in the Yellow Spring lake, they hadn’t expected so many to surface at once. If they could secure even a few, their strength would skyrocket.

Their breathing became ragged.

Their minds quickly grasped the significance: if this many had emerged, there had to be more hidden at the bottom of the lake.

That thought ignited a fiery gleam in their eyes, flickering with anticipation.

Even Chen Fan could not help but shift his gaze sideways, surprised to see so many rare Red Spider Lilies.

While the others believed there was only one, he had already collected two, so he knew there were more.

Moreover, now that so many lilies had emerged from the bottom of the lake, Chen Fan immediately recalled their strange behavior. They grew on corpses, so just how many top experts had to die to produce a sight like this?

In other words, there could be an entire sea of Red Spider Lilies beneath the surface. Chen Fan’s eyes immediately lit up.

If true, the fortune buried here would be unimaginable. The crowd also had the same thought.

Huo Qi stared at Chen Fan and came to a decision almost immediately. For now, harvesting the Red Spider Lilies took priority, so he wouldn’t attack Chen Fan.

“Brat, count yourself lucky. You live... for now. But once I’m done collecting the lilies, your life is mine.”

He was convinced that the lakebed was a treasure trove.

“Gui Ku, let’s go down.”

As soon as his voice fell, Huo Qi and Gui Ku led the experts of the Blood Heavenly Demon Sect and plunged into the Yellow Spring lake.

Although the Yellow Spring lake was very corrosive, the water wasn’t fatal to them, and they could endure it.

Cao Guang, Bai Yang, and Fu Buping’s eyes also darted around before they led their teams in after them.

Beishan Xue looked at Chen Fan, feeling incomparably torn.

If she chose to pursue Chen Fan, the others would claim all the Red Spider Lilies, while they would get nothing. Perhaps they might not even succeed in killing Chen Fan.

“Go, harvest the Red Spider Lilies first. We’ll have a chance to take care of him sooner or later!” Beishan Xue ordered coldly. Immediately, the experts of the Sun Moon Divine Sect also plunged into the Yellow Spring lake one after another.

Compared to the enormous amount of Red Spider Lilies, their grudge with Chen Fan could only be put aside for now.

Moreover, only by becoming stronger would they have a better chance of getting rid of Chen Fan.

Chen Fan hadn’t expected to escape danger so easily.

The Red Spider Lilies really had appeared at the perfect time.

Now that he knew a massive cluster lay hidden beneath the Yellow Spring Lake, there was no way he’d let the opportunity slip.

A single Red Spider Lily was a rare treasure in the outside world, found mostly by luck, so stumbling upon so many was nothing short of miraculous.

Naturally, he could not let them go. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Meanwhile, no one paid attention to the six Red Spider Lilies still floating on the lake’s surface. They all believed that there would be even more lilies at the lakebed, so why waste time here?

But that gave Chen Fan an unexpected advantage.

Even the tiniest mosquito was still meat—no reason to pass it up. He could collect the six first, then dive in after the others.

Chen Fan moved very quickly, slicing at the six Red Spider Lilies with his hand.

With the experience of harvesting two already, Chen Fan did not act recklessly. While seizing the Red Spider Lily, he simultaneously slammed the reanimated jiangshi into the lake with a palm.

Six loud noises rang out, sending waves rolling across the surface.

Chen Fan took the six Red Spider Lilies. Adding them to the two already in his possession, he now held eight.

He did not stop for a second and quickly plunged into the Yellow Spring lake.

After he plunged in, he felt the lake water fiercely corrode his protective true primeval. He needed to continuously produce true primeval to withstand it.

Under normal circumstances, his true primeval consumption for maintaining his protective true primeval was close to nil. Only when he was in a fierce battle would the consumption be a little heavier.

But now, the consumption just to maintain his protective true primeval was very huge. This just underscored the terrifying corrosiveness of the Yellow Spring lake.
