I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

The woman soon discovered Li Chen who had broken into Qingyin Pavilion, but she did not show any panic. Instead, she stood up from the bed slowly, as if she was completely unaware that she had become alone.

Li Chen looked at her, a wave of astonishment welling up in his heart. Her face was as gorgeous as a blooming peach blossom, her skin as white as snow, her fingers slender and soft, her neck long and graceful, her teeth white and even, her forehead broad and bright, her eyebrows long and slender like a crescent moon, her smile sweet and charming, her eyes lively and bright, and wearing that exquisitely crafted purple gauze dress, she seemed to contain endless charm.

Even more striking, however, was her near-perfect figure. Her figure was graceful, her curves exquisite, and every detail exuded a unique charm. When she struck a seductive pose towards Li Chen, this charm reached its peak, captivating him.

"Brother, are you so heartless as to hurt a weak woman like me?" the woman asked coquettishly, her voice filled with tenderness and charm, like a young girl in love coquettishly flirting with her beloved. This tone made one feel pity and a desire to protect and cherish her.

Even Li Chen couldn't help but walk towards her. When the woman saw Li Chen walking towards her, a blushing smile appeared on her face.

Suddenly, Li Chen felt a sharp pain in his head, as if countless sharp needles were piercing his scalp at the same time. Then, he heard an angry voice: "Host, wake up the fuck up!" This voice exploded in his mind like thunder.

Li Chen woke up as if from a dream, realizing that he had just fallen into the charm spell again. However, it was too late to rejoice, because the fire-eating poisonous scorpion had already pounced on him with its three-pronged steel fork raised high!

Li Chen hurriedly raised the stick in his hand, trying his best to resist the fierce attack of the fire-eating poisonous scorpion. Although he successfully blocked the stab of the steel fork, two of the steel forks' spikes still nearly pierced his body.

"Brother, your strength is just so-so! You might as well surrender as soon as possible! Wouldn't it be fun to enjoy the love between men and women with me?" The Fire-Eating Scorpion sneered triumphantly. She waved the steel fork again and swept it towards Li Chen's head.

Li Chen didn't dare to delay and quickly used the stick in his hand to block. After blocking the opponent's attack, he immediately counterattacked. However, to his surprise, a huge tail hook suddenly extended from the fire-eating scorpion's hip, easily blocking his attack.

The huge tail hook looked very sharp, as if it could easily cut through anything. It seemed to want to use its advantage to continue attacking Li Chen, but Li Chen's reaction was extremely agile, and with a backflip, he cleverly opened the distance between him and the fire-eating scorpion.

"That was close! I almost forgot she was a scorpion spirit! I was almost hit by her tail hook!"

Li Chen couldn't help but feel a little timid. He had just clearly seen the purple flame on the scorpion demon's tail hook. Although he had already swallowed the poison-proof pill, which made him immune to all poisons, he also knew that the burning of this flame was not something that could be resisted by poison.

"Strange! Why is the fire-eating scorpion gone?"

Li Chen suddenly discovered that the scorpion demon had vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye. He looked around in panic, but could not find any trace of the scorpion demon.

"Host, get out of the way!" The system's anxious voice sounded in his mind.

Li Chen suddenly heard the system's danger warning and quickly jumped back. He saw that the place where he was standing was covered by a purple flame gushing out from the ground, and standing in the flame was the scorpion demon!

"Brother is truly formidable! I just wonder if you can dodge this next move?" The Scorpion Demon smiled slyly, her hand ablaze with purple flames, seemingly consuming everything. She gracefully wielded the three-pronged steel fork, attaching the purple flames to it, enveloping the entire weapon in flames.

Immediately afterwards, the Fire Scorpion leaped high into the air, unleashing a powerful force. Her body instantly erupted in purple flames, forming a brilliant streak of light that rushed towards Li Chen like a meteor.

From afar, the Fire Scorpion had transformed into a star falling at an alarming rate. She laughed in the air like a silver bell, but to Li Chen, this laughter was even more terrifying than the devil's voice, sending shivers down his spine.

Facing such a swift attack, Li Chen realized he couldn't dodge and could only take it head-on. He took a deep breath, and a blue light emanated from his body. Six giant Xuanming swords emerged from his side.

"Water—Xuanming Shattering Heaven Formation!" Li Chen shouted, and six giant swords simultaneously stabbed at the fireball flying towards him at an extremely fast speed. Each giant sword flashed with a cold light, carrying endless power and majesty.

At the moment the two forces collided, a massive storm erupted. It was so powerful it seemed to overturn everything around it. Li Chen and the Fire-Eating Scorpion retreated simultaneously, spewing out mouthfuls of bright red blood.

Obviously, the attack just now caused considerable damage to both of them. However, unlike Li Chen, the Fire Scorpion had more scars on its body and was more seriously injured!

"Brother! You hit me so hard! But from now on, let your sister treat you well!!!" The Fire-Eating Scorpion shouted loudly with a coquettish look on her face. Her voice like a silver bell was full of confidence in her own strength and provocation to Li Chen.

As she finished her words, the Fire Scorpion underwent another astonishing transformation. Her upper body still held the delicate and beautiful image of a woman, but her once fair skin was now covered in a hard shell, emitting a metallic sheen. Her face remained charming and alluring, a sly smile playing at the corner of her mouth.

However, her lower body had completely transformed into that of a scorpion, supported by eight sturdy legs, each covered in sharp spikes. Her tail had grown enormous, its length covered in sharp barbs, as if ready to deliver a fatal blow. Most strikingly, her back also bore the thick, long tail of a scorpion, terminated by a sharp, venomous stinger that gleamed with a cold light, a terrifying sight.

Her hands also transformed into a pair of giant pincers, flashing with cold light, as if they could easily crush anything. She waved the pincers, making a crisp sound, showing great strength and threat.

The Fire-Eating Scorpion's entire form grew even larger, reaching tens of meters in height, like a small mountain. Her aura grew even more powerful, and the air around her seemed to be warped by her presence. Her eyes flickered with an eerie light, revealing an indescribable evil.

The Fire Scorpion opened its mouth and sucked in all the surrounding magma. The boiling magma disappeared instantly as if devoured. Meanwhile, the Fire Scorpion grew ever larger, its body seemingly capable of accommodating an endless supply of magma, constantly absorbing its energy, making it even more powerful.

The fire-eating scorpion's eyes flashed with a fiery light, revealing her inner madness and determination. She stared at the enemy before her, ready to launch a fatal blow. Her pincers danced, and with a sharp sound of wind, she attacked Li Chen.
