Both My Parents Are Supremes—Why Should I Fear a Child of Destiny? - Chapter 19:

Chapter 19: The One I’m Trampling Is You

After escaping the cave, Chu Fan fled at full speed. He even used the single-use magical treasure that Ye Nantian had given him.

It was only then that he noticed most of his Golden Radiance Armor had shattered. Seeing this, he gasped.

This armor was supposed to ignore any attack below the 6th stage Longevity Realm. With it, those beasts couldn’t break through his defense, which allowed him to rampage through the Secret Realm, plundering resources at will.

But thinking back on everything that had happened since entering the Secret Realm, only Su Ming’s punch could have caused the damage…

“Impossible! He’s only at the 1st stage Longevity Realm. How could he possibly break the Golden Radiance Armor!”

Although he said this aloud, the way he shoved a healing pill into his mouth revealed what he truly believed.

“It must be some magical treasure! Either from his parents or that Dao Guardian! That’s it—it has to be!”

With that thought, Chu Fan finally regained a sliver of confidence.

Yes, how could someone at the 1st stage Longevity Realm destroy the Golden Radiance Armor?

And besides, with his 3rd stage Longevity Realm cultivation, how could he be defeated by Su Ming in a single move?

He must have used some kind of magical treasure!

Thinking this, Chu Fan’s confidence returned completely.

At the same time, he felt the restlessness of his Sunfire Body.

“Could there be a fire-element treasure around here that the sect master didn’t record?” Chu Fan’s eyes lit up.

Just then, the single-use magical treasure’s flying duration was ending. This location was the perfect spot to land.

After landing, Chu Fan immediately noticed the abnormal temperature in the area.

“There must be a fire-element treasure nearby!”

Relying on the sensitivity of his Sunfire Body, Chu Fan discovered something in a canyon.

It was a chunk of amber-like rock, entirely crimson, as if magma was flowing inside.

“Fire Spirit Amber!? I never thought I, Chu Fan, would come across such a fortune!”

This was a rare heavenly treasure filled with fire-attribute spiritual Qi. Once the outer shell was broken, the inner fire-attribute energy could be absorbed.

It was somewhat similar to the Fire Spirit Lizard’s bodily fluids, but over ten times more effective.

However, around the Fire Spirit Amber, a pack of beasts had gathered. They resembled red-furred apes—Crimson Flame Beasts.

These creatures preferred gathering in areas rich in fire-attribute spiritual Qi.

Due to the Fire Spirit Amber’s aura, even the weakest among them were at the 1st stage Longevity Realm. The strongest had even reached the 5th stage.

If Chu Fan’s Golden Radiance Armor was intact, he wouldn’t fear these beasts. He could’ve gone straight up and taken the Fire Spirit Amber.

But now, the armor could only block a single strike from the strongest Crimson Flame Beast.

After that, he would be swarmed by the entire pack.

“Damn Su Ming! If not for you, I wouldn’t have to hesitate like this!” Chu Fan growled through clenched teeth.

Then a voice rang out behind him, “You seem to want that Fire Spirit Amber badly. Want me to fetch it for you?”

Su Ming’s sudden voice startled Chu Fan. He quickly turned around and saw the face he hated most.

Su Ming was looking at him with a mocking smile.

“Magical treasure! It must be a flying-type magical treasure! That’s how he caught up!” Chu Fan screamed internally.

Su Ming ignored Chu Fan’s glare and casually walked toward the Fire Spirit Amber.

The Crimson Flame Beasts immediately noticed the intruder.

But surprisingly, none of them dared to attack Su Ming.

Instead, they all moved aside, as if avoiding a terrifying predator.

“How is this possible?! Why aren’t they attacking him?!”

Su Ming still had the blood of a beast he had just slain on him.

These Crimson Flame Beasts were intelligent enough to recognize that the man before them was far more terrifying than any beast.

How could they dare make a move?

Just like that, Su Ming effortlessly retrieved the Fire Spirit Amber.

Then, he returned to Chu Fan, holding the amber in one hand.

“Now that you possess the Sunfire Body, this Fire Spirit Amber would be a perfect treasure for your cultivation.”

Chu Fan became even more agitated. He knew Su Ming was right—his Sunfire Body was indeed yearning for the Fire Spirit Amber.

“What do you want… to give it to me?” Chu Fan asked reluctantly.

Hearing that, Su Ming burst out laughing. “Give it to you? Why would I ever give this to you?”

Right in front of Chu Fan, Su Ming began refining the Fire Spirit Amber. His speed was so fast, it completely caught Chu Fan off guard.

“You dare play me?!”

“So what if I did? Do you remember what I told you in the cave?”

As he spoke, Su Ming threw a punch straight into Chu Fan’s chest, completely shattering the remaining armor.

“Next time we meet, I’ll make you run from me again like a stray dog…”

Chu Fan, collapsed on the ground, struggled to prop himself up and glared at Su Ming. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The complete destruction of the Golden Radiance Armor meant he had lost his biggest defensive advantage in the Secret Realm.

A monitoring elder spoke up, “Sect Master, should we teleport Chu Fan out? If this continues, I fear…”

“Indeed. Among the current younger generation, only Chu Fan was barely able to keep up with Su Ming. If this continues, he risks damaging his Dao heart.”

Everyone present was at least at the 2nd stage Star Realm. It was obvious that although Chu Fan was two stages higher, their battle strength wasn’t even close.

Even beasts with power equivalent to the 8th stage Longevity Realm had been slain by Su Ming. No one else in this Secret Realm could possibly compete with him.

In fact, looking across the entire Heaven Primordial Continent, it was hard to find any disciple under the age of fourteen who could rival Su Ming.

Li Jianping’s face turned extremely grim.

He had poured so many resources into Chu Fan, yet this guy still couldn’t measure up to Su Ming.

While he was fuming, Su Ming walked over and kicked Chu Fan, sending him flying. He tumbled several times before coming to a stop.

“Chu Fan, I’ll give you half a stick of incense to run. If I catch you again… want to guess what will happen to you?”

At that moment, Su Ming looked completely like a villain.

[Host, acting like this might cause the protagonist to awaken unexpectedly.]

Right as the system finished speaking, Chu Fan roared, “Su Ming! Don’t think you can trample my dignity again and again!”

In an instant, his cultivation surged from the 3rd to the 4th stage Longevity Realm.

Breaking through mid-battle gave Chu Fan a surge of confidence. Feeling the boost in spiritual Qi, he attacked Su Ming.

But the next moment, Su Ming kicked him flying again.

“The one I’m trampling is you. So what if you had a breakthrough? Do you think shouting some blood-boiling lines will help you defeat me?”
