Chen Fan looked at the blazing human torch before him and listened to the man's shrill screams.
A flicker of surprise crossed his face.
"He's not dead?"
This man's physique was somewhat unusual and powerful.
If it had been anyone else, struck at such close range without any defenses, even a Chang Sheng cultivator—perhaps even a second-level Chang Sheng cultivator—would have had their entire body burst apart. Yet although this man had been pierced through and seared by the raging flames, he had not died outright.
On the contrary, a dense aura of life surged from his body, and his injuries were continuously recovering...
And at that very moment.
Roar!
The civet-like pet in his arms suddenly leaped up, expanded against the wind, and viciously slammed into Chen Fan.
Clang!!
That civet was shockingly also a great Chang Sheng demon. When it crashed into Chen Fan, it produced an enormous metallic clang.
The force was so tremendous that Chen Fan was sent flying backward, and the Cold Edge Sword in his hand was pulled from the young man's chest!
Thud.
The charred young man's body trembled before falling to the ground.
The enormous civet demon stood firmly before the young man, shielding him behind its body!
Chen Fan looked subtly at the giant civet. "A Chang Sheng-level demon beast..."
One had to know that his physical strength was utterly terrifying.
With the sixth level of the Indestructible Vajra Body perfected, even without activating Berserk or entering the Vajra Body state, his strength in his normal state still far exceeded that of ordinary Chang Sheng cultivators.
Even if he had failed to react in time, no ordinary demon beast should have been able to knock him away.
Of course, this civet was not exceptional in terms of strength. It was even
