"Watch out!" Saintess Su Wanrou exclaimed. With a wave of her hand, a red silk ribbon instantly pulled Chen Yan away from that spot on the ground.

Hovering in the air, Chen Yan and she watched the ground continuously bulge, feeling puzzled.

"Is there still something beneath this Secret Realm?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire Secret Realm began to shake violently!

Looking around, they discovered that there were no fewer than dozens of such phenomena!

"Boom!" With a heaven-shaking roar, the ground in front of them suddenly exploded, and a scorching pillar of magma shot up into the sky, piercing the clouds.

A wave of searing heat swept outward, burning the surrounding air until it twisted and warped.

Chen Yan and Saintess Su Wanrou's expressions tightened, and they joined forces to set up a protective barrier in front of them!

Amidst the blinding firelight and heat waves, a behemoth was seen slowly crawling out from the rift where the magma had erupted.

It was a giant beast composed entirely of flowing, crimson flames.

Its body stood several zhang high, and its entire form burned with raging fire.

On top of its head grew lion-like fiery manes, and its pair of eyes were like two small suns, emitting a terrifying radiance.

A violent Aura, far exceeding that of an ordinary Late Nascent Soul stage cultivator, instantly enveloped the entire area upon its appearance.

"A Fire Spirit!" Saintess Su Wanrou's pretty face turned pale, and she exclaimed in shock, "How could such a powerful Fire Spirit be born in this Secret Realm? Judging by this Aura, it's at least at the Late Nascent Soul stage!"

The key thing was!

There wasn't just one!

As the rifts closed one after another, there were now hundreds of Fire Spirits within the Blazing Corridor!

That meant hundreds of Late Nascent Soul stage entities!

These Fire Spirits clearly possessed no intelligence, only the most primitive instincts of brutality and destruction.

After crawling out of the ground, those giant eyes burning with flames immediately began to search for the nearest enemy!

And Chen Yan and Saintess Su Wanrou were immediately targeted by the Fire Spirit in front of them!

In its perception, these two tiny humans were intruders who had broken into its territory.

"Roar!" The Fire Spirit let out a deafening roar and opened its massive mouth.

The next second, a scorching pillar of fire capable of melting metal shot out like a cannonball, blasting towards the two of them!

Wherever the pillar of fire passed, the space emitted a "sizzling" sound, as if it were about to be ignited.

And at this critical moment, Saintess Su Wanrou reacted immediately.

She pulled Chen Yan behind her, then rushed forward to block in front of him.

"Young Master, don't be afraid!" She let out a sharp cry, and with a wave of her jade hand, a red light flew out from her sleeve.

It was a red paper umbrella Magic Treasure.

The paper umbrella expanded in the wind, instantly transforming into a massive red barrier, blocking firmly in front of the pillar of fire.

After doing all this, Saintess Su Wanrou even had time to turn back and wink at Chen Yan, smiling coquettishly.

"I said I would protect you, and I am not someone who breaks her promises, you know~"

Boom! The pillar of fire and the red umbrella barrier collided with a deafening crash!

Terrifying energy fluctuations raged wildly!

The smile on Saintess Su Wanrou's face lasted only for a second before it instantly froze.

"Crack! Crack!" A teeth-grinding sound of shattering was heard; her Profound Rank High Grade Magic Treasure, the red umbrella, was covered in fine cracks under the impact of the fire pillar, as if it were about to completely shatter in the next second.

A massive backlash of force came through, and Saintess Su Wanrou's face turned pale in an instant, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

The strength of this Fire Spirit far exceeded her estimations!

Chen Yan stood behind Saintess Su Wanrou, seeing everything clearly.

He watched as Saintess Su Wanrou's face turned pale to maintain the barrier.

Even though her spiritual power was being consumed heavily and her delicate body was trembling slightly, she still did not retreat a single step, guarding him firmly behind her.

He subconsciously activated his Eye of Good and Evil.

He saw that the green light bar above Saintess Su Wanrou's head, representing goodwill, not only did not weaken in the slightest at this moment, but instead became even deeper and richer, pure and devoid of any Impurities.

This meant that her intention to protect him at this moment was one hundred percent pure, without a hint of falsehood.

Chen Yan's heart was suddenly touched.

This enchantress... although she was full of lewd talk and behaved loosely, she was actually... truly willing to risk her life for him?

Just as Chen Yan was stunned, the Fire Spirit's attack descended again.

It seemed angry that its first strike had failed to kill these two intruders.

Roaring, it raised its massive claws made of magma and slammed them heavily towards the about-to-shatter red umbrella barrier!

"Oh no!" Saintess Su Wanrou's expression changed drastically.

Her red umbrella had reached its limit and absolutely could not withstand this second strike!

Watching as the giant claw burning with raging flames was about to descend.

Just at this critical moment, a broad hand gently rested on her shoulder.

A calm and powerful voice sounded in her ear.

"Move aside."

Saintess Su Wanrou turned her head sharply and saw that Chen Yan had stood beside her at some point.

Although his face was still a bit pale, his pitch-black eyes were shockingly bright, as if stars were swirling within them.

"Young Master..." Saintess Su Wanrou just wanted to speak to dissuade him, but was directly interrupted by Chen Yan.

"It's fine, move aside."

Chen Yan did not offer any unnecessary explanation, just repeated it softly.

At the same time, a bone-chilling Sword Intent surged from within his body into the sky.

During the time he had been bantering with the enchantress, the spiritual power within his body had also been rapidly recovering.

Although it hadn't fully recovered yet, he had about forty to fifty percent.

This amount of spiritual power might not be enough for him to fight for a long time, but if it was just to strike one sword, it was enough!

"Hum!" The Flying Sword flew out in response, hovering above Chen Yan's head and emitting a clear, resonant sword chime.

Saintess Su Wanrou looked with glowing eyes at the powerful Aura that Chen Yan was revealing at this moment, and inexplicably, she actually retreated half a step.

And that Fire Spirit's second wave of attack had also condensed and formed.

It was a massive fireball, even larger and hotter than the previous pillar of fire.

The fireball spun rapidly in the air, carrying an Aura that could incinerate everything, whistling as it smashed towards the two of them!

Facing this terrifying strike that felt like the apocalypse, there was not a trace of fear on Chen Yan's face.

He didn't even glance at the massive fireball, just slightly lowered his head, muttering to himself in a low voice as if talking to himself.

"Revered Master~ It's really not that I want to play the hero saving the beauty..."

"It's just that as a man, how can I hide behind a woman?"

As his voice fell, he slowly raised his head, a sharp light bursting from his eyes!

He pinched a sword seal and pointed gently at the giant fireball in the air!

"Five Elements in one, Water overcomes Fire!"

"Cold Wave Extinguishes Flame!"
