Chapter 996 - Reaching the Deity Grade (1/2)

Above the lake of World Thousand Spirit Water at the center of the deity ground, a young man was floating in the air.

He was wearing an azure robe, and his black hair was loose and s.h.i.+ny. He was surrounded by a golden aura, standing in the sky with a nine-colored fire burning in his eyes, like the unstoppable G.o.d of War.

But what caught everyone’s attention was the Deity Wheel above Chen Fan’s head.

It was like the moon, giving people a sense of eternity and immortality. The Deity Art let out beams of gentle light which shone over the entire deity ground. Even the arrays were unable to block the light.

“This is…”

People outside the deity ground also saw the light. Countless cultivators stared at the light rays and felt that eternal, indestructible energy. The Heavenly Lords thought it had to be some peerless medicine or Divine Treasure inside.

“Boom!”

A few Demon Commanders were unable to wait anymore and they attacked.

Six Fiend Qi streams were gathered, forming a black whirlwind that smashed against the deity ground’s protection. The entire deity ground shook and cracked. Unfortunately, it still looked magical, untouchable.

The sisters of the Xu family looked at Chen Fan and Xu Na asked with a confused look, “Heavenly Lord Chen, is that you?”

Chen Fan was too dazzling at the moment.

The Deity Wheel was above his head. He was standing in the air with a golden aura around him. He was carrying an eternal energy and he was like an incredibly tough Golden Core, which was pure gold, round and smooth.

Right.

Golden Core!

There was nothing else that could describe Chen Fan better.

“I see.”

Chen Fan didn’t answer her. The nine-colored fire spinned in his eyes as he let out his Immortal Will to feel everything around him.

In his previous life, Chen Fan had only formed a sacred-grade Golden Core and he had no idea in what ways a deity-grade Golden Core would be more powerful. Such information was rarely mentioned even in books from the Celestial Sects. After all, deity-grade Golden Cores were rare and there were only a few examples in the past billions of years.

And yet, Chen Fan had finally understood when he completed it.

A deity-grade Golden Core was a seed, one without a single flaw. Speaking of strength, the Deity Wheel might not be more powerful than the True Martial Sacred Core Chen Fan had in his last life.

The True Martial Sacred Core was a top sacred-grade Golden Core and was known for its purity. It was one of the most powerful Golden Cores in the universe. In terms of power, even the Deity Wheel would be unable to beat it. The difference between a sacred-grade and a deity-grade Golden Core was the level of “perfection.”

Since a deity-grade Golden Core had been perfected, it was unbeatable; it had the possibility of an endless evolution.

It was a Deity Seed.

If sacred-grade Golden Cores were the most powerful among ordinary people, deity-grade Golden Cores would be the seeds of Deities.

With such seeds, cultivators would be able to enhance themselves constantly, having the chance to become Deities. Technically speaking, Chen Fan was like the descendant of a Deity after forming a deity-grade Golden Core; he was no different from the legendary Deities at the moment. Still, the real sons of Deities didn’t only have a deity-grade Golden Core, but also a Deity’s Body, Soul, Arts and Meridians.

“So, the Golden Cores of the Deities in the Deity Realm are at least at the deity grade?” Chen Fan thought.

He looked at the sky, and saw through the vast deity ground and the layers of arrays. He seemed to have a view of the supreme world that was enveloped in endless lights.

That was where the legendary Deity Realm was located, a place countless cultivators across the universe had dreamt about.

But Chen Fan only snickered.

“Haha.”

There were people he still wanted to settle the scores with, even if he had been reborn after five centuries. He had already been to the Deity Realm anyway.

“However, the nine transformations of the Deity Wheel are completed. I’ve finally formed a Golden Core.”

Chen Fan was relieved.

He created his own supreme sect in his previous life and he had never lost a battle, but he was bound by the unstable foundation and his level after all. So, he couldn’t move forward, just like a building without a secured foundation.

But this day, Chen Fan had finally completed cultivating a Golden Core.

It was a deity-grade Golden Core.

Boom!
