Chapter 1102 - Deity Nurturing Ground (1/2)

Chen Fan slowly closed his eyes, seemingly deep in thought. When he opened his eyes again, the entire world in front of him seemed completely different.

“Boom!”

At this moment—

The dimensional storms seemed to have disappeared in front of his eyes and everything seemed to have gone further away from him. The first thing he saw was the deity ground that was letting out beams of light; it had many Deity Patterns around it and was suppressing an unimaginable Fiend Zombie.

The deity ground was enveloped in a faint glow.

The powerful Fiend Qi started to appear slowly, turning into all kinds of Nascent Soul Fiend Fetuses, Fiend Children and Fiend Materials, but the deity ground was like a filter in Chen Fan’s eyes right then. It filtered out the most polluting “Fiend Qi of the Fiend Fetus.” The arrays were the second filtering layer, which transformed the Fiend Qi into “Deity Qi.”

And the third layer was the Earth itself!

Chen Fan looked up with golden glitters in his eyes.

“Why did they form the True Martial Sky-severing Array? It seems that they’re only using the power of Dharma Laws of the entire planet and planet region to transform the ‘Fiend Qi’ into ‘Deity Qi.’ So, why did the Spirit Qi on Earth dissipate in the last few thousand years, turning the planet into a dead planet? It seems like the energy of the whole planet was used to dilute that ‘Deity Qi,'” Chen Fan said to himself.

“The ‘Deity Qi’ is too dense. Only Dao Reunion Perfected Immortals and top Sacred Treasures can absorb it. Ordinary people or normal cultivators would explode and die after breathing in just a bit. However, once it’s filtered by the arrays and diluted by the energy of the planets inside the array, people with lower cultivation could still take it in.”

Chen Fan continued his pondering as his eyes brightened, “Venom is certainly deadly, but it would be diluted if a drop of venom is mixed into a river, losing its effects. ‘Deity Qi’ is the same. A plume of Deity Qi can kill thousands of ordinary people, but after diluting it with the energy of the entire planet, its energy level would drop and normal people would then be able to take it as well.

“So, the goal of this plan is to nurture people on Earth!”

Then.

Chen Fan finally understood why there wasn’t much “World Thousand Spirit Water” on planets like Planet Tianhuang, Planet Zheyuan and Heavenly Jupiter.

How powerful was the energy a planet thousands of miles large would form in a few hundred thousand years? It could even make more than one Soul Formation Cultivator!

At the same time—

Chen Fan also realized.

The reason why there were only a few Soul Formation Cultivators in the Abandoned Planet Region after so many years.

That was because the energy and most of the Spirit Qi in all the planets in the past few hundred thousand years had been transferred to Earth by the Deity Arrays.

Chen Fan looked up.

He believed that there had to be a lake full of “World Thousand Spirit Water” deep inside the Earth like on Planet Tianhuang, but that lake would be as vast as an ocean, a hundred times larger than the one on Planet Tianhuang!

“Phew, I wonder how powerful the planets like Planet Tianhuang, Heavenly Jupiter and Earth were a few hundred thousand years ago. I guess they used to be as large as those planets in the Central Galaxy, with a large amount of energy and countless Nascent Soul and Soul Formation Cultivators. There might not be any planet region in the entire Little South Heavenly Realm that could compare with them.”

Chen Fan thought about the past.

He finally understood why the oldest books on Earth told of ancient times when there used to be countless ancient G.o.ds and immortal Deities. That had to be an extremely flouris.h.i.+ng planet. However, after the Celestial Sects took the energy of the planet in the past few hundred thousand years, it turned into a small planet less than thirty thousand miles wide in the end.

“But why did the Celestial Sects do this? Even though there are talented cultivators on Earth, including Ye Qincang, Xie Yan and Hua Yunfeng, I think they can only reach the Nascent Soul or Soul Formation level at most. They aren’t worth it!”

Chen Fan touched his chin and felt something was wrong.

Were they planning to develop a cultivation race using the deity ground, the arrays and Earth as layers of filters and the energy of planets from the Abandoned Planet Region for dilution?

That was too much.

Besides, most people on Earth had no cultivation talent, at all. Only some of them, like Ye Qincang, Hua Yunfeng and Xie Yan, did, but they might even be less talented than Qi Xiu’er and Xiao Mang. Those two girls had “Divine Meridians” and were destined to become Soul Formation Cultivators.

“Or… they weren’t planning to develop an elite race, but to nurture just one or a few people?”

Chen Fan’s eyes glittered.

He remembered that some old and powerful races would bury their heirs in a flouris.h.i.+ng planet and nourish them with the blood of countless Overlords, Divine Beasts and Saints. After thousands of years, the heirs would finally come out of the planet and become Soul Formation or Void Returning Cultivators!
