539313 (Main Chain)    2018-08-31 09:27:12
539314 (Main Chain)    2018-08-31 09:29:08

between this 2 block is 2 minutes only
how Huh
Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I think you are slightly confused. The protol tries to keep the AVERAGE block discovery time around 10 minutes. It is never actually 10 minutes which is what the difficulty adjustment tries to adjust.

Current block generation times:

Block Generation Time(?):    
1 block: 9.3 minutes
3 blocks: 27.8 minutes
6 blocks: 55.6 minutes

Sometimes they are found back to back, sometimes there is a long delay
