Rebuilding the Great Dao

After the great battle, Chen Fan was spoken of everywhere throughout the Great Immortal Cultivation World. Even some of his deeds from years past were dug up and retold. Jian Tianmo, Fei Fengxuan, and even Cai Teng, the Holy Son of Heartless Valley, had become mere foils. Once again, Chen Fan became the focus of the world's attention.

The two set off together, arms slung over each other's shoulders, leaving the Peach Blossom Spring Mystic Realm to wreak havoc among clans and factions once more, seeking heavenly treasures to speed up their cultivation.

With the master of the Immortal Palace gone, and with Chen Fan having formed ties with the Dugu Clan and three other factions, the two felt that the outside world held no more dangers and left without worry.

Several days later, the pair returned laden with spoils. From the Dugu Clan and the Xiao Family, they had brought back many heavenly treasures gifted to Chen Fan by outsiders. They knew Chen Fan could no longer possibly care for such things, but they were too embarrassed to pocket them for themselves. So they presented everything to the others and brought them news of all that had happened outside.

When they heard that Chen Fan had become the center of
