Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator

Chapter 1143: Before the Ceremony

Two young people went to Chu Zhou City while Chen Fan was trying to enter the Nascent Soul Level.

At that moment, the entire Chu Zhou City had turned into an extremely large metropolis. Cultivators from all around the world, including Japan, the United States and Europe, all of them had gathered there. There were even cultivators of the alien races and from other planets on the streets.

Those high-level Connate and Golden Core Cultivators—who were usually arrogant and might even kill people because of a small matter in their own territories—-were acting like ordinary people at the moment. They walked on the streets with a smile without a hint of arrogance on their faces. As the "Divine Lord Coronation Ceremony" got closer, more and more cultivators went to Chu Zhou City.

If someone were to look at Chu Zhou City on the top of Yun Wu Mountain—

He would see dots of starlight gathering like an ocean. Each dot represented one Connate Cultivator; there were more than a thousand of them in Chu Zhou City at the moment.

Two young people, a boy and a girl, had arrived in the city. The boy was handsome, but he wore a lazy and evil smile, while the girl looked cold and her skin was as fair and smooth as ivory. Her body was fluttering in the wind like a willow.

"There's nothing special. I heard that there's a peerless Overlord who's powerful enough to kill Divine Prince Yi Qian and Divine General Yin Hai, but I don't sense anything like that from these people. Most of them are just Connate or Golden Core Cultivators, and there aren't many Nascent Soul Cultivators. How could a few Pseudo-Nascent Soul Cultivators who practice incomplete arts deal with the third Divine Prince of the Wuji Sect?" The boy glanced at the people on the street and smiled in disdain.

Considering the entire Earth and the Abandoned Planet Region, Chu Zhou City was at the moment flooded with Connate and Golden Core Cultivators, looking extremely flourishing. Even the sacred lands on Planet Tianhuang might not have that many Golden Core Cultivators.

However, they were absolutely nothing to the man.

All of the old cities he had seen in the universe were much larger than Chu Zhou City and had much more cultivators. If he wasn't worried about the legendary "killer," he would have flown to the base of the North Qiong Sect.

"Be careful. Not only did the third Divine Prince, a few other Divine Princes and many Divine Generals and elders also died in the deity ground. Some Spirit Tablets in the Wuji Sect, the Taichu Divine Realm and the Niekong Sect have already shattered, meaning that at least five Divine Princes died on Earth, aside from Divine Prince Lin He of the Demon Sun Sect and Divine Prince Luo of the Changshen Sect," the girl said with a cold voice.

Eight Divine Princes, including Yi Qian and Luo Changshen, had died in the Abandoned Planet Region and the Divine Prince of Apollo Palace was missing.

This news certainly shook the entire Star Ocean.

And the planet regions in the Little South Heavenly Realm were stirred.

Those were Divine Princes!

There were only a few of them per generation in each imperishable sect. Even the powerful Apollo Palace merely had six Divine Princes in a generation. They were regarded as the core disciples of the sect and candidates for the next Sect Master, talents that had hope of becoming Soul Formation Cultivators. Even just one of them dying would usually shake a corner of the world. Since eight Divine Princes had died and one was missing, which involved eight imperishable sects, how would the planet regions just sit there?

The sects responded pretty quickly.

They had already sent many secret agents and spies to the Abandoned Planet Region. Once they were mobilized, the sects would be able to know everything that happened on Earth and the deity ground.

Soon.

Chen Fan's information had been placed on the desk of every senior member of the imperishable sects in the large planet regions.

Chen Beixuan, a thirty-eight years old Chinese from Planet East who had an ordinary background and a Golden Core cultivation. He dominated Planet Tianhuang, defeated Mount Emperor and killed both Luo Changshen and Lin He one after the other. He slaughtered dozens of Nascent Soul Cultivators in the deity ground and killed six Divine Princes with the Flying Deity attack. He had even killed the third Divine Prince of the Wuji Sect in space with his clone.

Even though there wasn't much information, every bit of it was enough to frighten people and all of them together were able to create huge waves in the entire Star Ocean.

The nine Divine Princes were killed by a Chinese called Chen Beixuan, who wasn't even forty years old and was still a Golden Core Cultivator?

"What?"

"Do you think I'm retarded? How would I believe in your information that doesn't make any sense?"

Almost all the senior members who received Chen Fan's information scolded their spies in the Abandoned Planet Region quite harshly. Some with a fiery temper were even close to stabbing those spies.

Chen Fan was too unbelievable.

Even the top talent with the fastest cultivation speed in the Little South Heavenly Realm needed thirty years to become a Golden Core Cultivator and five centuries to reach the Nascent Soul Level. Chen Fan wasn't even forty, but he had formed the most powerful Golden Core and defeated Nascent Soul Cultivators at the Golden Core Level. He was in complete defiance of historical common sense. A cultivator with a divine-grade Golden Core was powerful and his power could lie between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul level, but nobody would be able to kill Nascent Soul Cultivators like chickens the way Chen Fan did. Not even Divine Princes were a match for him.

More than one senior of the large sects said, "Chen Beixuan must have already entered the peak-stage Nascent Soul Level or may even reach the Soul Formation Level soon. If not, he would never be this powerful!"

However, as time went by, many accurate news were sent from Earth and they had to accept the fact that Chen Fan was still a Golden Core Cultivator. From Earth to Planet Tianhuang, from the Divine Sea Level to the Connate and Golden Core level, his cultivation path was quite clear and he had always been good at killing. His Golden Core and Connate level couldn't be seen like usual levels and he was at least one level stronger than his peers.

After receiving Chen Fan's information, the large sects weren't unable to stand idle anymore.

He was a rare talent. He reached the Golden Core level before forty and might be able to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator in a century. But this was the very reason why he had to be eliminated. Otherwise, if he kept cultivating and reached the peak-stage Nascent Soul Level someday, wouldn't he take the Soul Formation Grand Cultivators down from the altar and level an imperishable sect?

That was quite possible.

Chen Fan was known for seeking revenge for the smallest grievances. The enmity between the Divine Sects and Earth was quite intense. Chen Fan wasn't powerful enough right then, but when he truly became a Divine Lord, he would certainly take revenge.

Of course, only the senior members of some large sects were worried about it. The Soul Formation Grand Cultivators who truly ruled the sects didn't care about that little thing at all. The difference between Soul Formation Cultivators and Nascent Soul Cultivators was like that between God and humans.

There were always stories about Connate Cultivators killing Golden Core Cultivators or Golden Core Cultivators defeating Nascent Soul Cultivators deep in the Star Ocean, but nobody had heard about anyone defeating Soul Formation Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Level; they were much more powerful than Nascent Soul Cultivators. A Soul Formation Cultivator was an imperishable sect. The Nascent Soul Cultivators, Golden Core Cultivators, elders and disciples under him were merely unimportant people. As long as the Soul Formation Cultivator was there, he would be able to suppress a planet single handedly, making billions of people bow, not daring to resist.

"Some elders in the sect are still worried that Chen Beixuan may threaten our Grand Cultivator after becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator. I think they're just worrying too much. I've never heard of any Nascent Soul Cultivator who can defeat Soul Formation Cultivators in all of recorded history. Such a rumor is as rare as a myth even in the Central Galaxy." The handsome boy snickered as he walked.

"The elders and Deputy Sect Masters have wisdom as deep as an ocean and they've seen much more than we have. Even if Chen Beixuan can't threaten the Divine Lords, he would still have the power to destroy everything when he truly reaches the Quasi-Soul Formation Level. Given the circumstances that the Grand Cultivators can't enter the Abandoned Planet Region, wouldn't Chen Beixuan rule the entire planet region? Such being the case, we would never be able to get the Grand Opportunity on Planet East," said the cold girl with a willow-like body. She had caught a lot of people's attention as she walked.

Those two people were also from the large sects in the Star Ocean.

They seemed to be indifferent like ordinary people, but their power was in fact as powerful as that of Yi Qian; they were respectively a Divine Prince and a Divine Princess of an imperishable sect called the Fuyao Sect. The boy was called Qiao Zhen and the girl was Qiao Yu. They were actually brother and sister, and were the descendants of the Fuyao Sect's Sect Master. Both became a Divine Prince and Divine Princess together and were famous young Overlords deep in the Star Ocean.

The two of them walked around Chu Zhou City like a couple.

Everyone who walked past made way for them. They talked about Chen Fan and the North Qiong Sect in public, but nobody around them heard what they said. Even peak-stage Golden Core Cultivators continued chatting with each other and went past the both of them. They seemed to be separated from the entire world; it seemed as if they didn't exist there.

"Heh, eight Divine Princes have died because of this so-called opportunity and the fifth Divine Prince of Apollo Palace is still missing. And yet, the large sects keep on sending people to Planet East like crazy. Seriously…" Qiao Zhen shook his head.

"Mind your words. This is the decision of the Divine Masters and Sect Masters. Were merely disciples, how can we doubt the Grand Cultivator? We just have to keep an eye on Chen Beixuan here. Our mission will be completed when the 'Divine Lord Coronation Ceremony' starts," the girl Qiao Yu replied gently.

"That's right. A Golden Core ant is holding a 'Divine Lord Coronation Ceremony' and becoming a Divine Lord… This is completely ridiculous. Even the Half Grand Cultivators in the Fuyao Sect can only cultivate in secret, not daring to claim themselves Divine Lords. Nobody can be called a Divine Lord without becoming a Grand Cultivator. Only these locals in the Abandoned Planet Region could make such a joke, crowning a Golden Core Cultivator as a Divine Lord." Qiao Zhen sneered with disdain in his eyes.

"Just wait. The Sect Masters will settle all the scores," the girl, Qiao Yu, replied indifferently as she looked on with calm in her eyes, as if she wasn't looking at any of those ordinary people.

As more disciples of the imperishable sects entered Earth and hid to wait for the Divine Lord Coronation Ceremony to take place, Chen Fan who was in the Origin Divine Palace also reached the toughest stage of breaking through the Nascent Soul Level.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

He was sitting in the middle of the palace with both of his legs crossed and his palms and feet facing upwards. He was like a golden yellow Golden Core enveloped in endless fire. His Deity Body, Deity Soul and Deity Core were being burned in the fire and were turning more and more vague, as if they were about to become one. The three flowers above his head had already merged and formed a flower-shaped light.

But up until that point, he was just halfway through the Nascent Soul Level.

Then, the real challenge came.

Boom!

In the Origin Divine Palace, some shapeless Dharma Laws were appearing in the air and they formed bolts of green lightning, striking the space around Chen Fan. The green thunderbolts were denser than any other time. When they struck around the air, each of them was extremely green, carrying the terrifying power of lightning and Dharma Laws that could easily crush Nascent Soul Cultivators into powder. Meanwhile, there were more than a thousand thunderbolts in the palace. The most powerful ones had even become green dragons a foot long with four claws and two horns. They were fierce and frightening, making the air in the palace shake.

The Nascent Soul Tribulation had begun!
