Chapter 1086: Top of the World
Chen Fan’s battle with the eight alien races ended in an unexpected way. Azure Dragon was still thinking about a conversation two days prior, when he asked Chen Fan how long he needed to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
He still remembered how devastated he was when Chen Fan refused to listen.
When the enemies arrived, people around the country were anxious, without a single thread of unity. The most powerful cultivator of their own even insisted on following his own plan without considering the great picture. Azure Dragon was like leading a bunch of idiots into the battle while facing the anger of their powerful enemies.
But right then—
Chen Fan had killed a hundred Golden Core Cultivators of the alien races and a Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Kindred. He then eliminated eight alien races in ten minutes. Azure Dragon was completely in awe and had no other thoughts in his mind.
“Ten years ago, I didn’t understand him and thought he was digging his own grave by fighting against the Overlords of the six Grotto-heavens. Ten years later, I still don’t understand him. I thought I had seen through everything, but it turns out I’m just a toad at the bottom of a well.”
Azure Dragon heaved a sigh and remained silent. He walked to Chen Fan, then bowed respectfully.
After that.
Chen Jiuyang, Huo ZhengTang, Red Sparrow, Tang Yuanqin, Chu Minhui and the Ancestral Patriarch of Tantric Buddhism also bowed to Chen Fan and thanked him sincerely.
They didn’t bow because of Chen Fan’s invincible energy, but because Chen Fan had defeated the eight alien races and brought light to Earth again.
This would be recorded in human history, and nobody would forget it even after thousands of years!
Countless people in the audience bowed to Chen Fan one after another. There seemed to be an emotion stuck in their minds and they wanted to release it.
He was the hero of mankind, the pride of mankind!
Ten years back, Chen Beixuan had left the planet. People thought he had missed the rise of Earth and that he wouldn’t be able to remain at the top. However, he returned after a decade and still saved the planet from danger.
Only going against the flow could he show the true qualities of a hero.
If he wasn’t a “hero,” who was?
“Hm!”
Auntie Tang covered her mouth and started crying. Chen Fan was like her own son, so how could she not be emotional when she saw his glorious victory.
A’Xiu, Tang Yifei and Chen Yaoyao were also emotional.
Only Jiang Feifei felt troubled; what Chen Fan did was like a slap on her face. She was ashamed of what she had said before, that she could certainly become a Golden Core Cultivator without him. Chen Fan had dealt with all their problems in ten minutes. With such power, he could dominate Earth in a blink.
Thinking of what she had done in front of him, she felt that she had been awfully childish.
Not only her.
All the cultivators in Chu Zhou City who saw Chen Fan in front of their televisions also felt the same. Chu Yun, Xiao Xuan and Yang Yaohui even turned pale. The young man they looked down on suddenly rose to the top of the world and was actually the most powerful cultivator on Earth! And yet, they were only mid-stage Ethereal Enlightenment Cultivators and were much weaker than him.
“I really underestimated him!”
Chu Yun sighed.
Meanwhile, billions of humans on Earth had gone mad.
When the news about Chen Fan exterminating the eight alien races—like the Dragon Demons, the Kindred, the Dark Wolves and the Monsters—was spread around the world, people were stirred.
In London, New York, Chicago, Tokyo, Mumbai, Bangkok…
Many big cities turned into oceans of joy. People around the world were celebrating, as if it were the greatest festival.
Although Chen Fan had once attacked the United States, what he did couldn’t compare to what those Dark Races did. Besides, how would the quarrel between humans be more intense than the invasion of the alien races?
Internal disunity dissolves at the threat of external invasion!
That meant that even when they were fighting with each other, they would unite when facing their common enemies. No matter how domineering Chen Fan was, he was one of mankind and he wouldn’t eat them, like the Kindred, the Demon Tribe, the Monsters and the Dark Wolves ate and enslaved people.
“Perfected Cultivator Chen is our pride!” many Chinese outside of the country said with beaming smiles.
They were much more respected because of their Chinese faces when they walked on the streets. Some women even gave them fruits, bread and cakes. People in many Asian countries, like Korea and Japan, also received such treatment.
“We can’t call him Perfected Cultivator Chen anymore. We should give him another name. His power can’t be described with ‘Perfected Cultivator!'” a cultivator said.
Right.
The CIA underground forum had been in chaos.
After celebrating, many people started condemning some others, including the famous Golden Core Overlord, “Sacred Eye,” who replied to a post saying that Chen Fan would lose. Even though they didn’t condemn him directly, they replied to him with a mocking tone, making “Sacred Eye” feel so ashamed he almost deleted his account. A lot of Immortal State Warriors and Connate Cultivators also felt the same.
“Who would have thought Perfected Cultivator Chen would become more powerful after leaving Earth for a decade? He even formed a ‘divine-grade Golden Core’ nobody has heard about!” a Chinese old cultivator exclaimed.
“That’s right! I’ve looked for some information. A divine-grade Golden Core was rare across the entire galaxy even in the ancient times. Only the most powerful ‘Planet Tianhuang’ had Divine Princes from time to time,” the descendant of a cultivation family replied.
“Hm, I heard that Perfected Cultivator Chen actually went to Planet Tianhuang. Did he learn something from the large sects there?” someone wondered.
“That’s right!”
“I think so.”
“You’re right!”
Many people agreed.
They finally realized that Earth used to be a famous cultivation planet in the galaxy during ancient times when people called it “Planet East,” which was even more powerful than the home planets of the Kindred, the Monsters and the Dark Wolves. However, Planet Tianhuang was truly the most powerful of all. Rumor had it that there used to be a Soul Formation Grand Cultivator who founded a large sect. There were tons of Nascent Soul Cultivators and thousands of Golden Core Cultivators in recent days. It was a given that Chen Fan’s power had to come from Planet Tianhuang as well.
“We certainly can’t call him Perfected Cultivator Chen anymore. We must give him a unique title to show his power, the top cultivator on Earth! CIA should create a new level above the X Level, corresponding to the Nascent Soul Level,” someone suggested.
“Good idea.”
Everyone else agreed.
“What about Divine Prince Chen?”
“Sect Master Chen or Grand Perfected Cultivator Beixuan?”
There were many suggestions, but they were all banned. Divine Prince Chen wasn’t powerful enough and the latter two were similar to Perfected Cultivator Chen.
Then, the Observer, who had been gone for a decade, suddenly replied, “In the ancient times, people called Nascent Soul Cultivators ‘Heavenly Lords,’ meaning the Lords of Heaven who were superior to the emperors in the human world. Chen Beixuan killed Nascent Soul Cultivators. He certainly deserves such a title!”
The others immediately seconded it.
Then, this title circulated around the cultivation world and was further spread across the planet. When people talked about Chen Fan, they automatically addressed him as “Heavenly Lord” or “His Majesty,” showing how respected he was!
In the meantime.
Chen Fan had returned to Yun Wu Mountain and asked all unrelated people to leave. He then released the ordinary people he had rescued from the eight alien races and started preparing for the reopening ceremony of the North Qiong Sect once A’Xiu and Auntie Tang settled everything.
He had a lot to do. By then, he would also have to establish a new system and rebuild the North Qiong Pavilion. That was just a preliminary preparation, so only people close to Chen Fan were able to enter Yun Wu Mountain at the moment.
It was a simple ceremony.
Chen Fan sat in the newly built tower on the top of the mountain as the Sect Master, meeting the core disciples, elders, guards, officers and disciples of the inner sect and outer sect.
After that—
Chen Fan gave them some medicines and books, and set up some rules before letting them go back to practice.
After all, there weren’t many members in the North Qiong Sect right then. Apart from A’Xiu, only two were elders at the Connate Level. So, they still couldn’t be the top sect in the world just yet. Chen Fan would organize a grand ceremony when he truly revived the North Qiong Sect.
Once the disciples left and the others sat down…
Ancestral Dragon, Ancestral Master Li, the Ancestral Patriarch of Tantric Buddhism, Chen Jiuyang, Tang Yuanqin and Chu Minhui were all there.
“Heavenly Lord Chen eliminated the eight alien races this time. I’m afraid even cultivators of the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena would refrain from looking down on humans on Earth anymore.” Chen Jiuyang congratulated Chen Fan with a joyful look.
They all kept up with the times. They had already adapted to the new title in less than a day.
Chen Fan smiled.
Titles, like Earth Level Deity, Heavenly Being, Perfected Immortal and Heavenly Lord were only used around the border of the Abandoned Planet Region. Only Soul Formation Cultivators would be given the title of Grand Cultivators in the Star Ocean and the Central Galaxy. It would be a great humiliation to the Dao Reunion Perfected Immortals if Nascent Soul Cultivators called themselves “Lords of Heaven.”
However, he still accepted it.
If there was someone among the human race across the universe who deserved the title “Heavenly Lord,” it would be him and him only.
Tribulation Cultivators didn’t even deserve to be called “Immortal Monarchs” in usual conditions. They were only comparable to Sky Immortals and weren’t really powerful. However, Chen Fan was called the “North Mystic Celestial Lord” in his previous life, which meant the “Lord of Deities.” That was a superior and rare title even in Heaven, let alone in the human world. There weren’t many cultivators who were granted this title. This showed how powerful Chen Fan was back then.
Azure Dragon and Ancestral Master Li also laughed in relief.
The Dark Races had been eliminated, so they didn’t have to be afraid of the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena anymore.
But Chen Fan shook his head.
“When compared to the Sun Palace and the Wuji Arena, those Dark Races are nothing.”
“Huh?”
Everyone was stunned.
