I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

"Fire Demon Slash!"

Li Chen roared, gathering all his strength into the stick in his hand. Then, he swung the stick and slashed at the chains that were blocking the Fire Kirin at an astonishing speed.

Meanwhile, Fire Qilin saw someone coming to rescue him, and a fire of hope suddenly ignited in his heart. He began to circulate his own flames, frantically burning the chains that trapped him. Meanwhile, Li Chen's attacks grew more and more fierce, each swing of his staff carrying immense power.

Under the fierce attacks of Li Chen and Fire Qilin, the chains finally couldn't bear the pressure and uttered a clear, shattering sound. As time went on, the sound became more and more frequent, and the chains gradually became more and more fragile. Finally, they reached the brink of breaking.

At this moment, Li Chen unleashed the final blow of his Fire Demon Slash. With the ferocity of a falling star, it struck the shaky chain with a powerful blow. With a resounding bang, the chain snapped, shattering into countless fragments that scattered across the ground before vanishing without a trace.

At this point, the Fire Kirin finally regained its freedom! However, having just escaped from its restraints for so long, it hadn't had time to adapt, and its strength hadn't fully recovered. As a result, it lost its balance and fell directly to the ground.

"System, is this Fire Qilin okay? Is it in any danger of death?"

Li Chen saw the Fire Qilin suddenly collapse, his face filled with anxiety, and he quickly asked the system. After all, he was quite pleased with this Fire Qilin. Not only was it powerful, but it was also his favorite auspicious creature. His destination was Mount Emei, occupied by Zhurong, the ancestor of fire. Due to his invasion, the heat there had become unbearable. Without a heat-resistant mount to assist him, he would have difficulty navigating the land.

"Host, don't worry. The Fire Qilin has extremely strong vitality. It will recover as soon as it rests."

Hearing the system's answer, Li Chen finally felt relieved, and he breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, he suddenly felt his legs go weak, his hands go limp, and his entire body felt empty. Clearly, breaking the Fire Kirin's seal had consumed a significant amount of his mana and energy.

To quickly regain his strength, Li Chen immediately decided to sit cross-legged, close his eyes, and begin his training. His breathing gradually steadied, and his pores slightly opened, absorbing the spiritual energy from the surrounding heaven and earth. As time passed, his mana gradually replenished, and his once exhausted body slowly recovered.

After a while, Li Chen slowly opened his eyes, a glint of insight flashing in them. After this period of rest, he had successfully recovered most of his magic power, and his body was no longer as weak as before. Feeling the surging power within him, Li Chen smiled and muttered to himself, "Now that my magic power has almost recovered, I can continue my journey." With that, he stood up, stretched his muscles, and prepared to go see the Fire Qilin.

Li Chen looked towards the Fire Qilin and found that the Fire Qilin was lying on the ground not far away, looking at him curiously. At this moment, Li Chen's physical strength and magic power were slowly recovering. He slowly stood up and looked at the Fire Qilin.

"Who are you?" Fire Qilin asked first, a hint of doubt in his tone. Then, he pressed the issue, "Why do you possess such powerful magical powers? And why are you here?"

Facing Huo Qilin's questioning, Li Chen replied frankly, "I am Li Chen, the man who has come to quell this great catastrophe!" His voice was firm and powerful, full of confidence. Because all of this had truly happened, there was no need for him to hide anything from Huo Qilin.

The Fire Qilin's eyes lit up slightly after hearing Li Chen's words. It once again sized up the mysterious man before it, secretly pondering his strength. After a moment, the Fire Qilin invited him, "So you're here to defeat the Water Witch. Since you're quite skilled, would you be willing to join me in this fight?"

After saying this, Fire Qilin's tone revealed a strong fighting spirit. When the Water Ancestral Witch was mentioned, its eyes revealed an uncontrollable anger and murderous intent. After all, it was the Water Ancestral Witch who sealed it here with the Mysterious Netherworld True Water.

Li Chen took a look at the fire unicorn. It seemed that the fire unicorn came here to fight against the Water Ancestral Witch and help the people get rid of the evil. Unexpectedly, it was imprisoned here by the Water Ancestral Witch and guarded by Benboerba and Baboerben.

Originally, the Water Witch planned to kill it with the chains formed by the Xuanming True Water, but she did not expect the Fire Kirin's fighting power and willpower to be so tenacious. It fought desperately until now, until Li Chen arrived to help it break the iron chains made of the Xuanming True Water.

"No need, I have already eliminated the Water Witch and successfully rescued Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

Li Chen spoke to the Fire Qilin with excitement, telling it that everything had been settled, that he had protected the people in the area and had successfully rescued Guanyin Bodhisattva!

"What?! You've already destroyed the Water Witch and rescued Guanyin Bodhisattva!"

When the Fire Qilin heard Li Chen say that he had defeated the Water Witch, it could not hide its joy and surprise. It had never imagined that Li Chen had actually defeated the Water Witch. It closed its eyes and sensed the breath of the Water Witch around it.

After a long time, it opened its eyes and looked at Li Chen in surprise. It sensed the breath of the Water Witch, but unlike the previous breath, the breath of the Water Witch had become very weak. And judging from the distance it sensed, it was now far away from Mount Putuo, but very close to Mount Emei.

In addition to sensing the breath of the Water Ancestral Witch, the Fire Kirin also sensed several other powerful auras moving at an extremely fast speed towards Mount Emei. It knew that everything was not over yet, and looking at the powerful person in front of it, it had the idea of ​​following him.

"How about it? Do you want to come with me to defeat the remaining Ancestral Witches and end this great catastrophe as soon as possible! Next, I plan to go to Mount Emei to defeat Zhurong, the Ancestral Witch of Fire! I really need your help now!"

Li Chen extended a sincere invitation to Huo Qilin. After all, it was always helpful to have more help on the upcoming journey. Besides, Mount Emei was probably already a sea of ​​fire, and he was in great need of more help.

Although there is a good female boss, the Fire-Eating Poison Scorpion, in the Fire Ancestral Witch's place, Li Chen is not sure he can subdue her and make her his "pet". After all, a female boss with 100% loyalty cannot be taken as a pet.

"Okay! I promise! I will be your mount! I will fight alongside you until the very end, until all the demons in the world are completely wiped out!"

After hearing that Li Chen's idea coincided with its own, the Fire Qilin answered without hesitation without thinking. Even Li Chen was stunned by its straightforwardness. How could the Fire Qilin agree so readily?
