Chapter 1061: Break Off
Boom!
A few beams of light landed on the venue’s left stage; a terrifying energy was immediately spread. Many ordinary people who didn’t cultivate felt like they were on a high plateau, finding it hard to breathe. Some of the weaker ones even turned pale and almost collapsed.
Yan Junze’s face was also flushed and he could only breathe after Chen Fan waved his hand, making the invisible energy dissipate.
“Hm!”
Chen Fan frowned.
Those cultivators didn’t seem to care about the ordinary people, releasing their power without holding back. Chen Fan was very upset about such a domineering behavior, but none of the others dared to say a word.
“Welcome, disciples from the Taichu Temple, the Wuji Arena and the Sun Palace.” Immortal State Warriors like Gao Baisheng and Chu Tianxiao got up and bowed.
Even Chen Jiuyang narrowed his eyes. “I can’t believe this, even the Taichu Temple sent someone here. This event is truly brilliant!”
The light dissipated and a few people appeared. There was an old man enveloped in an aura with some frightening energy around him, and there were young people who were only around eighteen years old, but looked arrogant and fierce.
“Hm.”
The old man in a golden robe nodded and Chen Jiuyang froze.
“Domineering!” someone whispered.
“That’s the outer sect officer of the Sun Palace, Lord Xin. I heard that he’s reached the peak stage of the Connate Level and is invincible among cultivators below the Golden Core Level. He always represents the Sun Palace and may not even compromise when dealing with the President of a country,” someone explained.
This time, Lord Xin was the only senior member of the sacred grounds who had shown up, but the young people he brought along came from different sects. They were enveloped in energy and their eyes were glittering, frightening the other young cultivators.
“The Taichu Temple sent their disciples here not just to watch the battle, but also to let them practice. Our disciples will be in trouble if they do join the competition.” A few Immortal State Warriors looked at each other and saw how worried the others were.
Even the elders of the large sects frowned.
Only Gao Baisheng and Chen Jiuyang would still be able to remain on top.
After that, a few more Connate Cultivators arrived. They were dominators of the Jiang Nan and the surrounding provinces. They knew Chen Jiuyang as well. All of them greeted one another and sat down.
An old man of the Immortal State got up and announced, “Since our guests are here, the event will start right now.”
In the first part of the event—
The Ancestral Patriarchs or famous cultivators stepped up and shared their cultivation experiences with the others. They tried to explain everything with simple terms so the audience could understand. Even so, many people found it fascinating.
It would have been impossible to buy this information from the Internet and teachers might not even teach these things in class. Those Immortal State Warriors would only share them during events like this.
Chen Fan certainly didn’t care about this. He focused his attention on the cultivators from the Taichu Temple.
Lord Xin knew powerful cultivation arts and the young people were also much stronger than the young cultivators in Jiang Bei.
“They’re indeed cultivators from another planet, or they practice cultivation arts passed down from those cultivators.”
Chen Fan knew about the level and limits of Earth’s cultivators.
Although Golden Core Cultivators and Connate Cultivators appeared sometimes, cultivation arts on Earth were even more incomplete than those on Planet Tianhuang. Apart from the low-level arts from the Realm of Kunxu, people usually practiced arts from the Wu Dang Sect, Dragon Tiger Mountain, Tantric Buddhism, the Ba Ji Sect and the Tai Chi Sect. Those were the simplified versions. If it hadn’t been for the rise in density of Earth’s Spirit Qi on Earth and that there were many talented cultivators on the planet, those arts would have never been able to help them get through the Connate Level.
Even so.
Chen Fan had sensed that most of the Golden Core Cultivators only had an inferior-grade Golden Core.
“However, the cultivation art Lord Xin and those young cultivators practice is apparently different from that of Chen Jiuyang and Gao Baisheng. It’s a complete cultivation art with just the Golden Core and Nascent Soul Level missing. Sections on the Qi Refinement and Connate Level are intact. It must have been passed down from the large sects in the Star Ocean. So, are the Taichu Temple, the Sun Palace and the Wuji Arena supported by cultivators from the Star Ocean?”
Chen Fan’s eyes brightened.
He watched Gao Baisheng and Chen Jiuyang rise because they were true locals on Earth, but he would never allow alien races like the Mermen and the Kindred, or cultivators from other planets like those from the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena to interfere.
The destiny of people on Earth should be decided by themselves, not by others.
Suddenly, someone snickered.
“Hey, isn’t that Brother Chen who refused to step on the stage? Why is he here? Does he want to show us what he’s got this time?”
Chen Fan turned around.
Jiang Feifei, Chu Yun, Xiao Xuan, Zhao Mingkong and the others were sitting nearby and Lu Yang was looking at him with a smile.
“All right, Lu Yang. That’s enough.” Jiang Feifei frowned. Even though she didn’t like Chen Fan, she was kind after all; otherwise she wouldn’t have stopped Lu Yang.
“Sister Feifei, Lu Yang is right. Your friend is a coward. Even Yan Junze dared to participate that time, but he just kept shaking his head. He’s not manly at all.” Xiao Xuan said.
“That’s right, Feifei. There’s a reason for Lu Yang to say that.”
The others also spoke.
Jiang Feifei had no idea what to do.
Those people were her friends and she didn’t want to refute them. Besides, deep inside she also thought Chen Fan was a coward. It wasn’t important if he could win or not; still, as a man, he didn’t even have the courage to accept the challenge. This made Jiang Feifei feel a bit disappointed.
“People have their own ambitions. Nobody can force him to do anything. We should just focus on ourselves. It’s almost time for us to fight for Chu Zhou City. Let’s just think about how we’re going to do it,” Chu Yun said.
He seemed to be helping Chen Fan, but was in fact separating Chen Fan from the social circle of the younger generation in Chu Zhou City, meaning that they would never accept him.
Ignoring someone was often the best way to express contempt.
Chen Fan didn’t even bother to look at them, as if they were ants underneath his feet and beggars on the streets.
“They…” Yan Junze turned pale.
He was angry and he wanted to help, but he couldn’t. He knew it was his choice to befriend Chen Fan. However, if he offended Chu Yun and the others, his family would also suffer the consequences. Reality was this cruel.
“It’s all right.”
Chen Fan patted Yan Junze’s shoulder and glanced at Lu Yang. “If it wasn’t for Jiang Feifei, I would have smacked you to death and destroyed your Divine Soul.”
Chen Fan sounded calm.
“What did you just say?” Lu Yang was stunned.
Yan Junze was dumbfounded. He couldn’t believe Chen Fan would threaten to kill Lu Yang. Jiang Feifei and the others were also stunned and they couldn’t believe Chen Fan had said that.
Chen Fan ignored him. He turned around and said to Jiang Feifei seriously, “I’ll let them go this time, but I won’t show any mercy next time. Not even to you.”
“Chen Fan, what do you mean? Are you blaming me?”
Jiang Feifei was enraged.
“I don’t care. Ask your friends to behave.”
Chen Fan glanced at Xiao Xuan, Lu Yang and the others with an indifferent look. He had warned them. If it wasn’t for Auntie Tang and that Jiang Feifei had helped him before, Chen Fan would have already killed Lu Yang and Xiao Xuan.
“You!”
Jiang Feifei turned pale and her body shook out of anger. She then turned around and said, “Fine. I’ll have nothing to do with you from now on!”
Her voice became cold in the end. Xiao Xuan knew Jiang Feifei had already made a decision.
“This guy truly has guts! He doesn’t have any power but dares to provoke Lu Yang.” Xiao Xuan glared at Chen Fan.
A woman in a Chinese dress witnessing the exchange shook her head.
“This young man is unwise. Lu Yang was obviously trying to make him angry; his goal was achieved since he even said something like that. Jiang Feifei was hesitating before, but now, she’s broken off all ties with him. Isn’t that what Lu Yang wants? Does he think Lu Yang and his friends will just let him go?”
Lu Yang and his friends were apparently planning something.
Chu Yun also frowned.
Chen Fan was like a spoiled child in his eyes. Once he couldn’t get something, he vented his anger on somebody he knew. Such a person would never become an Overlord! And there were mistakes that couldn’t be undone.
Like Jiang Feifei.
“Brother Chen, you’ve made a huge mistake!” even Yan Junze said to Chen Fan anxiously, “You should try to talk to Jiang Feifei later. Although she’s a Goddess, she’s also a girl. She may forgive you if you try to please her, otherwise, you’ll miss a great chance. Jiang Feifei is a good girl, it would be a shame to just let her go. Besides, Lu Yang and the others will definitely not spare you if you don’t have her protection…”
“All right, brother. Just watch the battles,” Chen Fan patted his shoulder and said, “It’s her loss, not mine.”
Yan Junze was astonished. He looked at Chen Fan as if there were a lunatic in front of him.
Meanwhile.
The battles between sects had officially begun. Many people were waiting for the top Overlords of Jiang Bei and the younger generation to fight.
At the same time, some people in black robes entered the venue.
