Chapter 1058 - A Grand Event in Jiang Bei (2/2)
The Taichu Temple, the Wuji Arena, the Sun Palace and the Xuankong Sect were undoubtedly the most powerful sacred grounds in the world. Their Sect Masters were also top cultivators on Earth.
“No, a nameless cultivator defeated Azure Dragon with an attack. The Sect Master of the Wuji Arena didn’t even show up,” Chu Minhui said.
“Stth!”
Yang Chao gasped.
A nameless cultivator was able to defeat Azure Dragon, one of the strongest Golden Core Cultivators in China? Everyone knew what this meant.
Yang Chao hesitated and said, “Perhaps it really is a Deity from another planet…”
Forces like the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena were mysterious and unpredictable. They seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, but they were extremely powerful. Not even the alien races like the Kindred would dare to provoke them. Many people guessed that they had the support from Deities of other planets. It seemed that people like Yang Chao knew this was probably true.
“Yes, although we’ve tried our best to contain the news, those Deities are showing up more often. They always appear in mountains like Kunlun and Yunling to look for Grotto-heavens. Besides, we can’t hide it from the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena any longer. General Ye may have cultivated hard, but he’s just become a Golden Core Cultivator. Even if he’s got a superior-grade Golden Core, there would still be a huge gap between his power and that of the Deities.” Chu Minhui smiled wryly.
“If there’s someone on Earth who can fight with those Deities, that’s him.”
After that.
The entire room went silent.
After a while, Yang Chao said, “So, you’re here for Chen Fan, but why just you two?”
He finally knew how urgent the situation was. Azure Dragon had lost and Ye Nantian was the most powerful cultivator left in China, but his level was similar to that of Azure Dragon. However, Yang Chao was wondering why they had sent Chu Minhui and Tang Yifei to look for Chen Fan. They should have used the country’s forces.
“Yang, do you know how many enemies Perfected Cultivator Beixuan had on Earth back then? The Christian Church, Dragon Lake, the Kindred, the Mayans, the Dark Wolves… It’s almost uncountable. People behind the collapse of the North Qiong Sect are similar to those alien races. If we look for him so publicly, do you think their enemies wouldn’t find out?” Tang Yifei said.
Right!
Yang Chao nodded after hearing this reasoning.
Chen Fan had no idea someone was looking for him right then. The gathering of the younger generation lasted for several hours. In the end, Chu Yun and Jiang Feifei were the most powerful male and female cultivators respectively.
Chen Fan certainly didn’t take those battles seriously, but Yan Junze’s eyes brightened and were full of jealousy and admiration. For a person like him—who was rich but was unable to cultivate—a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was also superior, not to mention Chu Yun and Jiang Feifei who were Ethereal Enlightenment Grandmasters.
The gathering ended soon after.
Jiang Feifei was taken away by her friends, and only Chen Fan and Yan Junze were left there. When they went downstairs, they walked past a woman with sungla.s.ses. That woman turned around and looked at Chen Fan in doubt, but heaved a sigh and left in the end.
Chen Fan’s life went back to normal when he returned to the villa on Yunwu Mountain.
He cultivated during the day and traveled around Earth with his Immortal Will at night. Auntie Tang had been busy lately. She was trying to find people related to the North Qiong Sect for Chen Fan’s sake. As for Jiang Feifei, she was still ignoring Chen Fan and would only nod at him when they ran into each other.
This lasted for a week.
One night.
When Chen Fan returned the three flowers into his body, he opened his eyes and knew it was time to leave. He had stabilized his current level after ten days of cultivation. He returned to Earth to find his parents and family, and it was apparently impossible to do so if he just stayed in Chu Zhou City.
“I’ll say goodbye to Auntie Tang tomorrow,” Chen Fan thought.
However, Auntie Tang brought some news back the next day.
There would be a grand cultivation event in Jiang Bei. By then, all the top cultivators of the province and those from other places would attend. There might even be Connate Cultivators and Earth Level Deities. The famous sects, including the Ba Ji Sect, the Tai Chi Sect, the legendary Taichu Temple and the Sun Palace would also send representatives to partic.i.p.ate in the gathering.
Chen Fan didn’t have the slightest interest about that kind of gathering, but what Auntie Tang said changed his mind. She told him that a core member of the North Qiong Sect might attend the event.
