Chapter 516 - The End is Night (1/2)

Chapter 516 The End is Night

“The Gate of Heaven is closed, and the path beleaguered The end is nigh!”

The first line of characters ritten in bloody red ink

The scroll was made out of a special material that was neither fiber nor metal It was still in iraphy on the scroll was infused with the vehemence and fervor that possessed the writer Chen Fan reckoned that these words ritten onto the scroll using Blood Qi

“The Gate of Heaven is Closed, and the path beleaguered… What does it mean?”

Chen Fan was also shocked, so he looked further down

“Since I was a boy, I have learned the way of Dao Fate had brought this Sword Art to reat trepidation and horror, I followed the instruction of the Art A hundred and thirty years later, I beca Swords I have, and one reputation I kept: Sword Secret the Exalted Cultivator”

The remainder of the scroll was a detailed account of the writer’s life

It includedevents: that he traveled to the fari swords, that he dominated ancient China, this, and that In between the lines, Chen Fan noticed that the Exalted Cultivator was a confident cultivator when he was young, thinking he had all the time in the world

However, the tone of the words changed once the Exalted Cultivator reached three hundred years old There was a trace of bitterness and resent but a prison His writings started to fill with accounts of his failed attempt to escape this world

He was close a few times but was unsuccessful in the end

“… now I am four hundred and ninety-two years old with only a fewto see my demise earlier, and I will die a fool as well The Gate of Heaven is Closed, and the path beleaguered The end is Nigh! The end is Nigh!”

As the Exalted Cultivator repeated his opening sentences, those words seeht than it had

Even Chen Fan was gripped by the sense of helplessness and despair He put down the scroll and turned his mind inward

“Exalted Cultivator must be the last Earth Level Deity There must be a couple of other Earth Level Deities on earth, but they must have met the same fate as Exalted Cultivator”

Chen Fan heaved a sigh

The earth was deprived of Spirit Qi and was practically a dead planet in the eyes of cultivators Even with all the arts and techniques at Chen Fan’s disposal, he could at the most reach the Golden Core level

Therefore, he had been thinking ways of leaving the planet ever since he reached the Divine Sea level

“There are three methods I can choose”

“The first method is to find an Immortal Portal I think it is what the Exalted Cultivator meant by the Gate of Heaven and the Path of Heaven These must be portals left by ancient cultivators when they left earth If I can find one, I should be able to reactivate it”

“The second method is to reach Golden Core Level and physically fly away from Earth However, this method was not without difficulties and perils Not only was it nearly impossible to reach Golden Core, but space was also an extreerous place for Golden Core level cultivators ”

“The last method is to simply wait for ten years when my teacher came to visit earth Then I can leave with hiht to himself

Of the three ht take him some time to search for the Immortal Portals

Chen Fan was not entirely confident about the second option, but he decided to do it alongside the first option nonetheless

As for the third option, it was Chen Fan’s last resort He would not even consider it unless absolutely necessary

“I a ahead of myself now I don’t have to deal with it until I reached Connate Spirit Level I ae of the Divine Sea, and it will take me at least a couple of years to reach Connate Spirit” Chen Fan cracked a s the scroll, he realized that the scroll was the same one discovered by Exalted Cultivator at Mount Shu

The name of the scroll was called the Sword Art of Nine Abandonments

It was an ancient art of Sword I and other Immortal State Warriors would put the scroll on a pedestal, treating it like the apple of their eyes It was an authentic Immortal Cultivation Art and could elevate any Iher state

However, for Chen Fan, it was just a small trick

He had tens of thousands of such arts at his disposal

“But the existence of the Sword Art meant that the Immortal Cultivators that used to occupy Earth was far from competent If they were really powerful like those of void returning and Dao Reunion level, they could easily change the landscape of this planet”

With that thought in ourd

All the while, Dragon Lord had glued his eyes on the scroll He guessed what it was but was deterred to claim it for himself because of Chen Fan

It had only been fifteen minutes since the battle, and the wound on Chen Fan’s shoulder was already healed The Dragon Lord knew he had no chance winning a fight against such a formidable opponent

“It is your time to make a decision now Do you choose life or death?”

Chen Fan linked his hands behind his back and asked the Dragon Lord
