Chapter 1103 - Regrets of the Past (2/2)

“In this life, Master also pa.s.sed by the Earth and took away Xiao Qiong, but he didn’t take me.”

“I’m not the Deity Fetus… It’s you!”

“Fang Qiong!” Chen Fan said.

He had been wrong since the beginning. He had thought he was an elite, who was destined to be the most powerful cultivator in the world. And yet, the greatest opportunity on Earth and the “Deity Fetus” born in the Deity Nurturing Ground had actually been Fang Qiong, not him. That was why he had not been able to become a Connate Cultivator after so many years, while Fang Qiong reached the Nascent Soul Level in five years.

“That time, I always wondered why my power suddenly surged after Xiao Qiong died. I could complete a cultivation art and form a Divine Power right away. Xiao Qiong must have transferred her ‘opportunity’ to me.” Chen Fan gave a wry smile and his eyes were full of regrets.

“You silly girl.”

At this moment.

Chen Fan finally understood everything.

Earth was a Deity Nurturing Ground and the “Deity Fetus” was Fang Qiong, which was why Fang Qiong had been so talented. Chen Fan had used to merely be a nameless ordinary man in his previous life. Before Fang Qiong died, she must have pa.s.sed her energy to Chen Fan through a secret art or special method.

Even though there might only have been one-tenth of the energy left after such a kind of transfer…

It had been “one-tenth of the Deity Fetus” still, which had made Chen Fan’s power and talent soar. His cultivation improved tremendously, becoming a Soul Formation Cultivator in just a century and reaching the Void Returning and Dao Reunion Level after two centuries.

Chen Fan thought that even in his previous life, Master Cangqin had visited Earth only to take Fang Qiong away. Master Cangqin took him away in the end just because Fang Qiong requested it.

After thinking of this, Chen Fan could only smile wryly, feeling a hint of pain in his heart.

“You silly girl. Why were you so stupid? Why did you give me so much? How will I ever pay you back?” Chen Fan shook his head and sighed.

What Chen Fan had achieved in his previous life might have been way beyond what one-tenth of the Deity Fetus could do; not even a complete Deity Fetus would have been able to take Chen Fan to that level. The North Mystic Celestial Lord had been someone on top of the world, even above the Deities, not to mention being a mere Deity Fetus.

However, that didn’t diminish the merit of Fang Qiong’s help in the slightest.

He had been like an elite hidden in the crowd, a dragon trapped in the shallows. After Fang Qiong gave him her energy, he had flown back up into the sky with the help of the wind, becoming the invincible North Mystic Celestial Lord.

Without Fang Qiong—

He might have taken way longer to enter the Connate, Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels. It might have taken him thousands of years to figure out his own path. Although he would have still risen to the level of the “North Mystic Celestial Lord” in the end, that might have taken place millions of years later. And yet, it was also possible that Chen Fan might have died before reaching the Connate level.

Life was an ever-changing journey.

Even Chen Fan wasn’t sure who he would have become without Fang Qiong’s help.

But he would have definitely not been able to rise to the top of the universe in five centuries, creating so much trouble for the Deities.

“Ah!”

Chen Fan waved his hands and everything in front of his eyes disappeared. The dimensional storms outside the Realm of Kunxu started to rage again.

He sat there with his legs crossed. Instead of cultivating, he looked up at the sky.

He was able to see a bright galaxy, where the Central Galaxy was located and where Fang Qiong was. She was billions of light years away from him.

Chen Fan looked at it without blinking his eyes.

He didn’t seem to care about time anymore.

Three days later.

He wiped off the dust on his body and slowly got up. When he looked at himself again; he felt as if he were the most ordinary person without the least bit of energy. His aura and glitters disappeared, leaving no trace on him.

He used to be an ordinary person in his previous life, and then, he became one again.

But his eyes were full of confidence and determination, as if he were able to crush everything.

“In my previous life, I only reached the Dao Reunion and Tribulation Level with the help of Xiao Qiong’s ‘Deity Fetus.’ But in this life, it’s easy for me to rise back to that level on my own. I might even be able to go to Heaven again!” Chen Fan thought as the aura around him shone brighter. He turned into a beam of light and shot up to the sky.

“I must make up for all my regrets and mistakes! I want Xiao Qiong and everyone who loves me to be happy! I must make all my enemies pay! I want the world to know my name again! I want the Deities to be terrified of me! I want to become the most powerful, and one and only in the world with the name of the ‘North Mystic Celestial Lord!'”

His voice became louder—

In the end, it almost resounded around half of the Realm of Kunxu and countless people were astonished.

“After being in the human world for twenty years, I’m going to rise to the top again!”
