Chapter 418: Realm of the Grandmaster

Chen Fan had Cat Girl and the others return to the Zhenyuan Army first, while he himself headed straight for Longyuan. He wanted to achieve the Realm of the Grandmaster at the fastest possible speed.

The entrance to Longyuan was located in mid-air, a full ten thousand meters from the ground, which was one of the reasons it had never been discovered before.

When Chen Fan's figure stepped into this Other-dimensional Space, the scene before his eyes changed instantly.

It was no longer the familiar grass and trees, but towering ancient trees instead.

The vegetation here was enormous; ordinary trees were all a thousand meters tall.

Chen Fan observed briefly; the exotic beasts here were also generally much larger.

"This place is truly extraordinary." After Chen Fan sighed with emotion, purple-gold thunder protected his body, and he carefully walked toward the depths.

The ground beneath his feet gradually changed from grayish-brown to scorched black, and tiny electric arcs jumped on the ground from time to time, making sizzling sounds.

After traveling for about half an hour, a boundless swamp appeared ahead. In the swamp, ink-green mud rolled, and a layer of pale purple thunder mist floated on the surface.

"This should be the Millennium Thunder Marsh that Principal Chen mentioned."

Just as Chen Fan approached the edge of the swamp, a purple thunderbolt as thick as an arm darted out from the mist and smashed fiercely against his protective shield, stirring up a circle of purple-gold ripples.

"Such strong thunder power, how overbearing." Chen Fan felt a chill in his heart; a tiny crack had actually appeared on his body-protecting thunder shield.

With a thought, the Primordial Thunder Soul was quietly activated, silently pushing away the surrounding thunder mist.

Chen Fan stepped into the Thunder Marsh; the thunder slurry under the swamp was unusually viscous, and every step required a great deal of effort.

What was even more terrifying was that every hundred meters, a thunder pillar would dart out from the bottom of the swamp; if he were the least bit careless, he would be struck.

Chen Fan could only use the power of the Primordial Thunder Soul with all his might to sense the surrounding thunder anomalies in advance.

He knew that time was tight; five days would pass in the blink of an eye, and he had to reach Thunder Valley as soon as possible.

So he no longer held back his strength; his figure turned into an afterimage, quickly shuttling through the gaps between the thunder pillars.

He did not know how much time had passed, but Chen Fan finally walked out of the Millennium Thunder Marsh. The scene before his eyes shocked his heart and soul.

Ahead was a huge valley. Thick thunder clouds floated above the valley, and countless purple lightning bolts shuttled through the cloud layer, emitting deafening roars.

In the center of the valley, a golden thunder pillar as thick as a water bucket shot into the sky. Around the thunder pillar, strands of black thunder silk circled; this was exactly the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder he was looking for.

After these strands of Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder shot into the sky along with the golden thunder pillar, they quickly fell back to the ground, smashing terrifying cracks into the iron-hard earth.

"The Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder truly contains the weight of ten thousand jun in every strand." A trace of ecstasy flashed in Chen Fan's eyes.

Just as he was about to step forward to absorb these thunderbolts that had fallen to the ground,

a roar that shook the valley came from underground, and an exotic beast covered in black Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder, exuding a terrifying aura, drilled out from the ground.

It looked at Chen Fan and let out roars, as if warning this human who had broken into its territory to leave as soon as possible, otherwise it would start a massacre.

Chen Fan looked at the thunder on its body, his eyes filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

This was a Ninth-Tier mutated Thunder Flood Dragon. The reason it was called mutated was because the thunder on its body had evolved into Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder.

"It seems this guy hasn't swallowed little of the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder here." Chen Fan looked at the opponent vigilantly.

He could indeed interfere with the opponent's thunder, but the higher the level of the Attribute Divine Thunder, the less influence he would have on it.

Of course, if it had been assimilated and absorbed by Chen Fan, it would naturally be under Chen Fan's control in the future.

The mutated Thunder Flood Dragon opened its huge mouth and sprayed out a purple thunder dragon, which swept toward Chen Fan.

Chen Fan's eyes narrowed, and the Silver Dragon darted out, colliding with the thunder dragon.

With a loud "Boom," Chen Fan was shaken back repeatedly, his tiger's mouth feeling numb.

Chen Fan did not use the Void Heaven-Splitting Blade as soon as he made a move; after all, he needed to hone himself, and this kind of opponent was just right for him.

Under the influence of the Primordial Thunder Soul, the strength of this mutated Thunder Flood Dragon would be weakened by thirty percent, so Chen Fan was confident he could take it down.

Chen Fan took a deep breath, activated the Indestructible Tribulation Heart, and his figure flashed, turning into a purple-gold stream of light as he rushed toward the mutated Thunder Dragon.

The Silver Dragon Spear in his hand carried the sound of wind-breaking as it thrust straight at the mutated Thunder Flood Dragon's eyes.

The mutated Thunder Flood Dragon was agile; it dodged the attack sideways, and its tail, carrying bursts of thunder power, whipped toward Chen Fan.

Chen Fan flipped in mid-air, dodged the tail attack, and turned back with a spear thrust.

The spear tip collided with the scales, sparks flew everywhere, and the mutated Thunder Flood Dragon felt the pain, letting out an angry roar.

One man and one beast engaged in a fierce slaughter in Thunder Valley.

Relying on the power of the Primordial Thunder Soul and the Indestructible Tribulation Heart, Chen Fan did not fall behind at all in the fight with the mutated Thunder Flood Dragon.

Less than two minutes later, Chen Fan used a "Great Peng Spreads Wings" move to pierce directly through the mutated Thunder Flood Dragon's skull.

After catching his breath for a moment, Chen Fan summoned Qingyou out.

"Qingyou, is the Dragon Essence Blood contained within this Beast Emperor-level Thunder Flood Dragon enough for you to evolve to the Eighth-Tier Peak?"

Qingyou nodded, its expression becoming excited. Before this, under the large amount of resources Chen Fan had fed it, Qingyou had already grown to the Eighth-Tier Mid-Stage.

Now, after swallowing this mutated Thunder Flood Dragon, it could steadily break through to the Eighth-Tier Peak, or even higher.

Qingyou leaned down and absorbed all the origin essence blood of this mutated Thunder Flood Dragon, then entered the Beast Pet Space to begin its path of breakthrough.

Chen Fan, meanwhile, came to the thunder pillar of the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder.

He could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within the thunder pillar; the thunder power, as heavy as ten thousand jun, made it feel as if his breathing was slightly difficult.

Chen Fan sat cross-legged, formed seals with his hands, and began to guide the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder into his body.

He first cautiously guided out a strand of black thunder silk. When the thunder silk touched his skin, an indescribable weight arrived instantly, as if a huge mountain were pressing down on his body, and his meridians were squeezed until they throbbed with pain.

At the same time, the violent power within the thunder silk was also crazily destroying his body tissues.

"Endure it!" Chen Fan gritted his teeth, and blood spilled from the corners of his mouth.

He swallowed Life Water to let it heal his body's injuries on its own, while he himself operated the Primordial Thunder Soul with all his might to swallow and refine the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder.

Under Chen Fan's efforts, that strand of black thunder silk was gradually refined, turning into pure power that merged into his body.

With the successful experience of the first time, Chen Fan gradually increased the magnitude of guiding the thunder power. More and more black thunder silk was guided into his body; his body endured unprecedented pain, his bones made "creaking" sounds, and the skin on his body was constantly burned and torn, only to be quickly repaired by the effect of the Life Water.

He did not know how much time had passed, but the thunder pillar of the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder in Thunder Valley became dim.

Chen Fan's original Grandmaster bottleneck gradually loosened. When the last strand of Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder was refined by him, Chen Fan suddenly opened his eyes, a black-gold light shot out from his eyes, and a terrifying aura erupted from his whole body.

"Boom!" With a loud sound, Chen Fan's aura skyrocketed instantly, breaking through the Grandmaster bottleneck and reaching the early stage of Grandmaster!

Not only that, his physique became even more powerful under the tempering of the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder, and the thunder within his body also took on the attributes of the Wuya Heavy Heaven Thunder.

Chen Fan stood up, feeling the surging power within his body, and a confident smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. He glanced at his military wristwatch; there were still two days left until the time agreed upon with the Fire Venerable.

He did not leave Longyuan, but instead took out the long-sealed Nether Demon Brake Armor and put it on.

There was no other reason; with his current strength, dealing with the Fire Venerable was far from enough, but with this set of magic armor, he still had a chance of winning.

It was just that if he wanted to make this set of magic armor exert even more powerful strength, he needed to feed it with fresh blood.

"There are still two days left; I will let you drink your fill!"

Chen Fan sneered and walked toward the depths of Longyuan. ===== CHAPTER 419 =====
