I'm Dreaming of a Journey to the West

Chapter 107: Li Chen's Fierce Battle with the Fire-Eating Scorpion (Part 2)

"Can the system give me some help quickly? I'm in a very urgent situation now. If you don't help, I might be killed by her!" Li Chen anxiously asked the system for help, his heart filled with fear and despair.

He could only dodge the fire-eating scorpion's violent and violent attacks, but this was not a long-term solution. He knew that if he couldn't find an effective countermeasure, he would be defeated sooner or later.

At this moment, the system's voice came: "Host, calm down, her attack is a two-stage attack!"

Li Chen was stunned when he heard this, and asked with confusion: "What did you say? What is a two-stage attack? I don't understand it at all!"

The system patiently explained, "A two-stage attack involves first using a fierce attack to expose a weakness in the opponent, and then using even greater force to attack the opponent's weakness. This type of attack requires the attacker to possess extremely high skill and strength, and the way to defeat it is to use a three-stage attack."

Li Chen frowned, pondering the system's words. He realized that to defeat the enemy before him, he must master this three-stage attack technique. However, he knew nothing about this attack method. How could he learn and apply it in such a short time?

"System, is there any specific guidance or training method that can help me quickly master the three-stage attack?" Li Chen asked anxiously.

After a moment of silence, the system replied, "Host, you need to hone your skills through actual combat. When fighting the enemy, constantly experiment with different attack methods and observe their reactions. Only by accumulating experience through practice can you gradually master the essence of the three-stage attack. Furthermore, you can also improve your strength through practice, enhancing both your offensive and defensive capabilities."

Li Chen took a deep breath, determined to follow the system's advice. He knew it would be a tough battle, but he had no choice but to give it his all to survive. So, he plunged into the fierce battle once again, constantly trying new attack methods, looking for opportunities to break through the enemy's defenses.

"Oh, I understand. So that's how it is! The Fire Scorpion's attack focuses on its two pincers! As long as we block the source of its force, its attacks will be defeated!"

Li Chen's eyes turned cold, and he gently waved his right hand to retract the weapon in his hand. Then, he used all his strength to activate the divine power in his body and made his body the same size as the fire-eating poisonous scorpion.

Then, he concentrated all his strength on his hands, clenched his fists, and stared at the pincers of the fire-eating poisonous scorpion.

The Fire-Eating Scorpion swung its pincers and attacked Li Chen again. However, Li Chen cleverly grasped the force point of the Fire-Eating Scorpion's pincers and easily blocked its attack.

Then, he took the opportunity to launch a fierce punch at the chest of the Fire-Eating Scorpion, directly knocking the Fire-Eating Scorpion back dozens of meters away!

"How is this possible? You can actually block my attack!"

The Fire Scorpion's expression turned extremely ugly. She hadn't expected Li Chen to block her attack so easily. Moreover, Li Chen's punch had also left her with a serious injury.

But she was not willing to admit defeat, so she launched another attack. This time, she not only used her two pincers, but also used the poisonous needle on her tail at the same time, trying to stab Li Chen from multiple directions.

"go to hell!"

The fire-eating scorpion roared and attacked Li Chen. Her pincers and poisonous needles attacked Li Chen as densely as raindrops.

However, facing the attack of the Fire-Eating Scorpion, Li Chen did not show any panic. He continued to follow the same method, blocking the force point of the Fire-Eating Scorpion's two pincers with both hands, and then hit back with even greater force.

The Fire Scorpion was startled when she saw this, but she did not stop attacking. She quickly swung her tail, trying to attack Li Chen with her poisonous needle.

Li Chen did a front flip and delivered two lightning-fast kicks, one to the fire scorpion's chest and the other to its chin. The scorpion stumbled backward in pain, but Li Chen's feet firmly grasped the scorpion's sting. Then, concentrating all his strength in his feet, he pulled with all his might, severing the sting with a single, forceful tug!

“You damn bastard!”

The Fire Scorpion grimaced in pain and roared angrily. This tail was her most proud weapon. Even the Tathagata Buddha had been stabbed by it before, but now it had been cut off by Li Chen!

"At this point, why don't you just surrender?"

Li Chen spoke righteously. As he spoke, he summoned the Annihilation Soul Axe once again. It instantly grew immense, like a mountain, emitting a suffocating pressure. Then, the Annihilation Soul Axe fiercely slashed at the Fire Devouring Poison Scorpion.

"Ah!" With a shrill scream, the Fire Scorpion's massive body was shattered by the mountain-like Annihilation Soul Axe, a horrific sight. Without the protection of its hard exoskeleton, the Fire Scorpion's body had long since become shattered, riddled with holes, and blood continuously gushed from the wounds like a fountain.

Immediately afterwards, the Soul Annihilation Axe launched a second attack. This blow, like a thunderbolt, completely shattered the Fire Scorpion's exoskeleton, revealing the flesh tightly protected by the exoskeleton. From the Fire Scorpion's mouth, another large mouthful of blood gushed out, like a blooming blood-red flower, exuding a scent of despair and pain in the air.

Then, with the third attack, the Fire-Devouring Poison Scorpion's flesh and blood was mercilessly cleaved into countless fragments by the Annihilation Soul Axe, scattering across the ground like a bloody painting. She no longer had the strength to stand, and could only collapse in a pool of blood, her eyes filled with despair and unwillingness. Her life ended there, and she would never stand again.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the task. I will now start the pet transformation of the Fire-Eating Scorpion! In addition, this is your reward: floating armor, floating weapons, and a portion of the Fire Witch's spirit! Please check!" The system's voice sounded in his ears, with a hint of excitement and excitement.

At this moment, Li Chen's system space suddenly flashed with a faint light, and then the huge body of the fire-eating poisonous scorpion slowly disappeared from the spot and was taken into the system space.

As the corpse of the fire-eating poisonous scorpion entered the system space, a dazzling light suddenly flashed, and then three items appeared in front of Li Chen: a piece of armor emitting strange energy fluctuations, a weapon shining with mysterious light, and a crystal clear red crystal floating in the air - the essence of the Fire Ancestral Witch!

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Chen's eyes. He quickly reached out and picked up the armor and weapon, examining them carefully. These two items were obviously extremely precious treasures, containing powerful power.

Without hesitation, Li Chen immediately integrated his floating armor and weapons with his existing equipment and upgraded them. With a flash of dazzling light, he felt an even more powerful force surge into his heart, instantly boosting his strength.

Li Chen felt a surge of joy as he felt the powerful force coming from his body. This boost in strength filled him with confidence for the future and made him look forward to the next adventure even more.

As for the remaining Fire Ancestral Witch Essence, Li Chen was not in a hurry to use it. He decided to keep it for now and wait for his new "pet" to come out. Then he would give it to his new "pet" as a greeting gift!
