Jiang Meiyue felt even more distressed after sensing Chen Fan's presence. He had really broken through again!
It's only been a few days since I last saw him, and he broke through even more easily than they did! He's still at the Ancestral God realm! He's leaped several realms in a row...
I don't know why his cultivation level is so insane.
The other gods, upon hearing this, also became fervent.
"Congratulations, Realm Lord, on breaking through to the Ancestral God!"
In such a short time, the Realm Lord has broken through again!
Or did he leap directly to the Ancestral God realm? It's unfathomable.
That's terrifying!
However, this also means that the overall power of the Eternal Realm is even stronger!
Chen Fan hummed in agreement, "A minor breakthrough, I apologize for keeping you all waiting."
I just had a one-on-one fight with Ruthless, and I actually lost!
Of course, he didn't use his full strength, but knowing that his combat power was comparable to that of God Emperor was enough.
A minor breakthrough? That's a bit discouraging. Jiang Meiyue said sincerely, "You're too kind, Realm Master. When shall we depart?"
She couldn't catch up to the Realm Lord anymore; the gap in strength was widening. She was unwilling to accept it; the Realm Lord should be her subordinate!
In less than two years, things have not only reversed, but the gap has widened to an unbridgeable chasm! They can't even touch his back...
Chen Fan glanced at it, " Main God of Slaughter, let's set off now."
Because I unexpectedly completed the mission and obtained the Nine Heavens Golden Thunder and the Void Weak Water, it took a little time, but it's not a big problem.
"Yes, Lord of the Realm." Everyone's spirits lifted.
But what level of cultivation do these two women, who can accompany and protect the Realm Lord like this, possess?
Could it be Ancestral God?
The realm lord didn't speak, and they dared not ask. Clearly, they had been in seclusion for a long time, and their information was outdated.
Afterwards, Chen Fan returned to the Eternal Realm to hand over some matters.
Willow God remained silent for a moment. Of course, she could see Chen Fan's cultivation level: Ancestral God Seventh Stage! He wasn't far from her and Ruthless's realm...
She had seen that golden lightning clearly. An ordinary person who tried to refine it would surely perish!
But if one becomes a Realm Lord, one must possess an incredibly robust physique. One wonders what kind of heaven-defying treasure the Realm Lord will utilize for their next breakthrough?
He immediately transmitted his voice, asking the Ruthless god emperor, " God Emperor Ruthless, what just happened?"
The Ruthless transmitted his voice, "What just happened between you two?"
It means exchanging information.
There was no other way; one person was responsible for protecting half of it...
Willow God: "Previously, the Realm Lord refined a terrifying golden lightning, which allowed him to break through to the Ancestral God Third Layer..."
Ruthless: "Yes, the Realm Lord refined another terrifying type of water, which is why he has his current cultivation level."
Willow God: "Water?"
Ruthless: "Yes, it is indeed water. Moreover, the overall combat power of the Realm Lord is already comparable to that of God Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, Willow God didn't say much. It wasn't surprising anyway; it was normal for such a heaven-defying object to exist. She just didn't understand how the Realm Lord's body could withstand it.
Even the Ruthless fell silent. Golden lightning? The realm lord really knows how to play games, stuffing everything into his body.
With all sorts of Transcendent energies converging, aren't they afraid of causing chaos and going out of control? And how come the Realm Lord's body is so tough...?
soon.
Chen Fan is back. He only stayed for a short while, and besides explaining Lineage affairs, he naturally brought along the book spirit spy, Ancestor Chen Kai.
Without saying anything else, it all comes down to lineage. Ancestors can always be used to protect you. The main point is obvious: Chen Kai's ancestor is at a higher level, knows more, and is easy to carry, so there might be a need for him sometime.
He then instructed, " Ruthless, you will accompany me. Willow God, you will guard this place..."
One of them needs to stay behind to guard the house.
Although the Star Domain Walkers probably won't come... since they would have come long ago, we still have to be on guard.
If they want to switch shifts, that's not impossible.
Willow God: "..."
Why didn't you take me?
"Yes, Lord of the Realm," they answered in unison.
The Ruthless is finally comfortable; they no longer have to stay here.
Chen Fan nodded, and then they headed together to the central location of the Eastern Star Domain.
That was the most prosperous and bustling place in the Eastern Star Domain.
Halfway there.
Book Spirit Chen Kai was somewhat surprised, "Young Fan, how come you have God Emperor level expert by your side?"
Upon learning that Chen Fan had already reached the Ancestral God Seventh Stage, he almost lost his composure! Damn it, but he later accepted it calmly; the stronger Chen Fan was, the better.
What kind of incredible stroke of luck could lead to this? It's terrifying, unbelievable! But he didn't ask any further questions.
And a mere Ancestral God... not to mention that Chen Fan was only Ancient God before, how could he possibly recruit God Emperor? If word got out, no one would believe it.
Chen Fan said, "Senior, I have done them a favor, and they chose to repay that favor."
If he couldn't explain it, he could only try to appease his ancestors, who probably understood what he meant.
Chen Kai laughed, clearly trying to fool him. Repay a debt of gratitude? Even if they were, would they treat you that way?
However, he understood that Chen Fan was keeping this a secret from him. Just like Chen Fan's breakthrough in cultivation, it was all done in secrecy.
"Indeed, with the God Emperor by your side, your growth will be much smoother."
In any case, being protected by a powerful figure is a great thing, especially given the Chen Lineage's current situation.
Chen Fan hummed in agreement, "So, senior, are you perhaps also God Emperor?"
This old ancestor could easily see through the levels of the Ruthless and the Willow God; he could make such a guess.
Chen Kai did not deny it, "I am indeed the God Emperor."
Then, not wanting to continue this somber topic, he asked, "Young Fan, are you confident in your ability to Star Hegemony?"
Chen Fan thought to himself, "Just as I thought! We've finally caught a God Emperor -level spy! All thanks to Main God Meiyue, she's done a great service."
"Of course I'm confident. But senior, are you aware of the rules of this Star Hegemony?"
This was his first time participating, so he wasn't very confident.
Chen Kai thought for a moment, "To represent the world in the competition involves several procedures."
"First and foremost, it's a matter of overall strength, a battle between the strongest individuals from different worlds. Cultivation level doesn't mean much; absolute strength is the key."
"Secondly, it involves eliminating Beyond-the-Realm Demons and acquiring Demon Contribution Points, which serves as proof, and this process is also the most dangerous."
"Third..."
" Beyond-the-Realm Demons?" Chen Fan interjected.
This thing caught his attention.
Chen Kai nodded. "That's right. Beyond-the-Realm Demons are beings born from the chaos beyond the star field. If they weren't suppressed, they would inevitably invade the star field. You can also understand them as enemies of everyone. Therefore, the more they are eliminated, the stronger the overall strength of this world becomes."
"The ranking will naturally carry more weight and be more convincing."
Chen Fan pondered, "So, there must be a danger of death?"
"That's for sure. The slightest carelessness could lead to certain death, so one must never be careless or let one's guard down when dealing with Beyond-the-Realm Demons," Chen Kai reminded him.
"Of course, it's also a kind of training. Anyway, you'll find out when the time comes; Star Domain Walkers will teleport you to that place."
Chen Fan: "..."
Star Domain Walkers!
"And what about the third one?"
"Thirdly, there are various trials. Besides cultivation level and strength, other factors are also extremely important. Anyway, Star Domain Walkers will assess and categorize the strength of your world, making a rough ranking to determine your opponents. Just face the various challenges."
"What about those wanted by the Star Domain Walkers?"
Chen Kai: "..."
