I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Li Chen saw the Fire-Eating Scorpion's sharp pincers coming towards him from both sides. He jumped up to avoid the attack of the Fire-Eating Scorpion's pincers and wanted to get in front of the Fire-Eating Scorpion to attack her.

"go to hell!"

The fire-eating scorpion said viciously, and the hook on her tail, which was flashing with purple flames, stabbed towards Li Chen's head. Li Chen dodged the attack of the fire-eating scorpion's hook by turning his body to the side in the air.

"Fire Demon Slash!"

Li Chen attached the power of fire to the stick, then escaped into the void at an extremely fast speed and slashed at the fire-eating poisonous scorpion from eight different directions!

"Is this the extent of your attack? This level is of no use to me at all!" The Fire-Eating Scorpion sneered disdainfully, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"Final blow!"

Li Chen roared, the stick in his hand instantly turning red, as if on fire. He used all his strength to deliver the final blow of the Fire Demon Slash fiercely towards the Fire Devouring Venomous Scorpion! This blow was like the falling of an evil star, carrying endless might and destructive power, heavily bombarding the Fire Devouring Venomous Scorpion!

With a resounding bang, the Fire Demon Slash's final blow unleashed an incredibly powerful force, engulfing the entire battlefield in blazing flames. However, the immense impact of this blow also caused smoke and dust to rise all around, completely obscuring vision.

Li Chen stared nervously at the smoke-filled battlefield, his heart filled with worry. He couldn't tell if the Fire Scorpion was still alive, so he could only pray that his attack would be effective. But at that moment, a silver bell-like, yet sinister laugh rang out from the smoke, causing Li Chen's heart to sink to the bottom.

Soon, the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, revealing the Fire Scorpion, standing unharmed. Her body emanated a strange light, without a single scratch, not even the hem of her clothing was torn. The Fire Demon Slash's powerful attack seemed to have no effect on her.

"Brother's strongest attack is only this strong, and it looks nothing more than this!" The Fire Scorpion smirked, a sneer of contempt hanging from the corner of her mouth. Her voice was like the whisper of a demon, chilling.

Li Chen frowned slightly. He had originally thought that this attack would cause some damage to the Fire Scorpion, but now it seemed that the other party didn't take him seriously at all. He thought to himself, "This attack has no effect at all. What's going on?"

"Hahahahaha! Little brother, I have an exoskeleton protecting my body. After being baptized by the power of Lord Zhurong, the ancestor of fire, this exoskeleton has become extremely hard and indestructible. With your little strength, you can't penetrate it at all! So, you'd better join me in being loyal to Lord Zhurong, the ancestor of fire! In this way, we can obtain the powerful power bestowed by Lord Zhurong, the ancestor of fire, and become a happy couple, enjoying the good times in the world. How about it, isn't it exciting?"

The Fire-Eating Scorpion tried to persuade Li Chen to follow her and pledge allegiance to the Fire Ancestral Witch. However, Li Chen was not swayed by her words.

"I tell you, you're talking nonsense!"

Li Chen roared with righteous indignation, "No matter what happens, I will never betray my conscience and become part of the evil forces like you!"

"If Master Tongtian hadn't specifically instructed me to try my best to convince you to join our camp, I would have attacked you long ago with my personality, and wouldn't have bothered to talk to you for so long!"

Hearing Li Chen's rude refusal, the Fire-Eating Venomous Scorpion flew into a rage, her eyes gleaming with murderous intent. If it weren't for Tongtian Patriarch's prior instructions to persuade Li Chen to join them at all costs, the Fire-Eating Venomous Scorpion would have long since given up on talking to Li Chen and wouldn't have allowed the five banshees to seduce him.

However, Li Chen was not intimidated by the Fire-Eating Scorpion's threats. Instead, he became more resolute in his stance. "Tongtian Patriarch is indeed a remarkable figure. If he hadn't become the source of chaos in this world, we might have become good friends. I would even be willing to take him as my disciple. But he dragged innocent people into this chaos to satisfy his own selfish desires. I cannot associate with such a person, let alone join his camp!"

After saying this, Li Chen held his head high, his eyes filled with a sense of justice and determination. Although he had a deeper respect for Tongtian Patriarch, who valued talent, this did not mean he would change his stance. After all, as the leader of the Jie Sect, to which all the immortals came to pay homage, Tongtian Patriarch's status and influence could not be underestimated.

He indeed attaches great importance to talents, but the current Tongtian Master is not the kind and benevolent Tongtian Master who teaches everyone.

His heart has long been shrouded in the hatred he felt during the Conferred Gods War. He hates the traitor who betrayed Jiejiao (Chang'er Dingguangxian, I'm talking about you). If it weren't for that traitor, Jiejiao wouldn't have fallen into such a state! So he wants to use his power to resurrect his loyal disciples. He wants Jiejiao to dominate the world again!

Li Chen and Tongtian Jiaozhu both have reasons not to lose. Li Chen wants to quell the chaos here and return home alive, while Tongtian Jiaozhu relies on the power of the Twelve Ancestral Witches to reshape the world and revive Jiejiao!

"In that case, please die!"

The fire-eating poisonous scorpion raised its two pincers in its hands. At the same time, the poisonous hooks on its tail behind it also moved and stabbed towards Li Chen's head. The two pincers wanted to tear Li Chen into pieces!

"Flame Flash!"

Li Chen transformed into a ball of scorching flames, dodging the Fire Scorpion's claws and hooks, and almost instantly arrived behind it. However, the Fire Scorpion had eight legs, so it quickly turned around at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, Li Chen was once again caught in a tough battle. The scorpion demon's attack was not only powerful, but also extremely fast. Li Chen could only launch one attack with the stick, but the scorpion demon had two pincers in its hands and a hook on its tail, which could launch three attacks from three directions at a time.

As a result, Li Chen was completely passive when facing the scorpion demon's violent attack. While resisting the attack, Li Chen's brain was also working rapidly. He was thinking about what kind of ability could instantly break the scorpion demon's defense!

"There's no way we can beat her at this rate!"

Li Chen thought anxiously in his heart that he was now completely passive. If he continued like this, he would not be able to defeat her. On the contrary, if he consumed too much physical strength, when his physical strength was exhausted, he would be doomed!
