Chapter 1159 - Like Ants (1/2)
“Ah!”
When the sigh was heard—
Everyone had been simultaneously shocked by it.
The Divine Princes and elders turned around and saw a young man in a black outfit walking slowly in the air, as if emerging from the depths of the universe with hands behind his back.
He had black hair and black eyes, and was wearing a black robe with twelve pictures printed on it: flower, bird, fish, insect, mountain, river, the sun, the moon and people on Planet East. He was wearing the Divine Lord crown and was good-looking; he seemed to be a seventeen-year-old young man. He looked exactly like the “Chen Fan” who had fought with the three Divine Princes, as if they were twin brothers.
However—
That Chen Fan was much more realistic than the one who had fought with the three Divine Princes. He had a more substantial, human-like presence.
“That was indeed his clone!”
An elder gasped.
The Divine Princes also turned pale.
In fact, the Divine Sects in the Star Ocean had collected a lot of Chen Fan’s information. The battle between him and Divine Prince Yi Qian had even been the main focus of the reports. Since the cultivators from other planets had also watched that battle, apart from the billions of people on Earth, only those Nascent Soul cultivators from other planets were able to see the details of the battle; most of the information had been spread to the Star Ocean from word of mouth.
There was no way the Divine Princes hadn’t looked into Chen Fan’s information before traveling to Earth.
And yet, they were too arrogant after all. They thought that Earth was just a barren planet, so how powerful could Chen Fan be? The power Chen Fan’s clone had shown was also within their expectations. He had fought against three Divine Princes alone and was only at a disadvantage moments before. Such a powerful strength matched his identity of being the top Overlord in the Abandoned Planet Region, but it wouldn’t be deemed as someone with more power.
If someone said there was a super talent—who would regularly only appear in the Central Galaxy—in the Abandoned Planet Region around the barren area of the universe…
Even the Grand Cultivators behind it all would have been skeptical, let alone the Divine Princes!
So, the Divine Princes had only glanced over the report; none of them had read it carefully. Being a woman, Qiao Yu would usually pay more attention to details after all. Besides, she had traveled to planet Earth before and she knew that Chen Fan’s clone was on the top of Mount North Qiong. She felt doubtful from the bottom of her heart after observing Chen Fan fight.
However, the situation became completely different when the real Chen Fan appeared.
“He fought with the three Divine Princes to this point with a clone?”
Everyone felt a chill down their spines once they thought about this.
They knew there were many cultivation arts for creating clones in the Realm of Cultivation, but they could never be more powerful than the real bodies. In fact, the power of the clones might even be two times weaker than the cultivators themselves.
If the clone of a cultivator were the same as his real body, he would clearly be at an advantage when fighting two against one. Especially for those Overlords on the top of the world like the Soul Formation Grand Cultivators; there would be one more Grand Cultivator if they had a clone, and they could certainly suppress the other sects. So, the more powerful the Clone Arts were, the closer the strength of the clones to the real bodies and the more treasurable they were.
A Celestial Sect in the Central Galaxy had a Grand Divine Power called “One to Three.” It could be used to create three clones that had powers comparable to the real body’s.
That Divine Power was ranked as one of the top ten super cultivation arts on the Universe Wonderful Art Roll; it was a truly earth-shattering and powerful Divine Power. That Celestial Sect dominated the Star Ocean with that Divine Power. So, a Divine Power was enough to determine the fate of a Celestial Sect or a sacred ground.
Chen Fan’s clone would have never been more powerful than his real body, no matter what.
Then, they had to find out how strong the real him was.
“It seems that you had fun bullying my clone. You even besieged him.” Chen Fan waved his hand gently and the Nine Orifices Divine Infant stuck in the tough battle with the three Divine Princes turned into a beam of golden light, immediately shooting back to him.
Yuan Yi frowned and looked at Chen Fan with a sour look.
Even Lin Yang and Wang Wei looked upset.
After fighting so hard, they found out it had only been a clone. It wouldn’t have helped much even if they killed him. Lin Yang was almost spurting out blood. He had lost a total of three Substitute Divine Talismans. Each of them was as precious as a Nascent Soul Spirit Treasure.
The Grand Divine Prince, Qin Feng, spoke for the first time. “You’re Chen Beixuan? You really had us fooled with your clone. You’re indeed the top Overlord on the whole Planet East, or even the entire Abandoned Planet Region.”
He spoke seriously as he pulled the reins in his hand and rode the hundred-foot nine-winged fire phoenix surrounded by thousands of fires like the God of War.
That was the first time Qin Feng had complimented Chen Fan, looking him in the eye and recognizing his strength.
“Abandoned Planet Region… I don’t like the name. You can call it Planet East Region or ‘Milky Way,'” Chen Fan said gently. He used his Immortal Will to repair his Nine Orifices Divine Infant while he spoke.
His Nascent Soul looked awful after having fought continuously.
An arm and a leg had been disintegrated and its body was covered with wounds. Its power had even dropped to the mid-stage Nascent Soul level. However, with Chen Fan’s unimaginably powerful Immortal Will, plumes of golden smoke billowed out of the Nine Orifices Divine Infant’s mouth, healing at a visible speed.
“The Milky Way… This is how you call it on Earth, right?”
Qin Feng frowned slightly. “I can change it to this name. If you join the Apollo Palace, I can offer you the entire Ab… Planet East Region and grant you the title of ‘Divine General Planet East.’ After that, you’ll be the Lord of all the surrounding planets, including this one. Apart from the opportunity found on this planet, we’ll take nothing else, and I’ll allow the Chen family to rule this region forever!”
Qin Feng offered to confer the title of Divine General to Chen Fan again.
That wasn’t an edict delivered by Divine General Naran, but a promise from the first Divine Prince of the Apollo Palace. Not even their Emperor would retract from such a commitment.
