chapter-1103

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Five centuries was a long time. It equaled the five lives of an ordinary person. Chen Fan had lived only five centuries in his previous life, but he had been able to reach the Tribulation State and was given a title: the “North Mystic Celestial Lord!”

However, five centuries was indeed a short time.

Dao Reunion Perfected Immortals could live up to millions of years, and Grand Cultivators and Saints could cultivate in seclusion for five centuries straight without getting out. Dao Reunion Perfected Immortals were rare and there would only be one every ten thousand years in the universe. There were indeed other Dao Reunion Perfected Immortals when Chen Fan was on the top of the world, but none of them were humans.

Among all the human cultivators, the only one who had become a Dao Reunion Cultivator in five centuries was Chen Beixan.

“I’m the Deity Fetus?”

Chen Fan was shocked.

Looking back on his previous life, he had become a Soul Formation Cultivator in a century, a Dao Reunion Cultivator in two centuries and a Tribulation Cultivator in three centuries. He had been known as the cultivator who had the most hope of ascension. That might sound like he was indeed the “Deity Fetus,” but the cultivation time in the first half of his life had been too long. A “Deity Fetus” should have become a Soul Formation Cultivator in a decade, at most.

The “Sacred Prince of the Light Race” had even become a Soul Formation Cultivator right away!

Of course, that had something to do with his own potential. The Sacred Prince of the Light Race was the descendant of their Ancestral God and had been born with a Nascent Soul cultivation; it was a walk in the park for him to reach the Soul Formation Level. If he hadn’t died, he might have had the chance of becoming a Dao Reunion Perfected Immortal as well. Unfortunately, Chen Fan had killed him on the home planet of the Light Race. People on Earth were just ordinary people. Even if Chen Fan was indeed a “Deity Fetus,” he wouldn’t have been able to advance immediately.

Chen Fan shook his head.

That didn’t make sense at all.

Besides, even though Chen Fan didn’t advance as quick as a “Deity Fetus” in the first half of his previous life—after he had entered the Tribulation State at three hundred years old—he had gone deeper into the level and had even fought with the Deities in Heaven, earning the title of the “North Mystic Celestial Lord.” That wasn’t something a “Deity Fetus” could explain.

A “Deity Fetus.”

Was the fetus of a Deity, the child of a Deity!

It would be born as a Deity and would automatically become a Dao Reunion Perfected Immortal when fully grown. That was why the nine Celestial Sects had done everything they could to form Deity Arrays to nurture it with the Fiend Qi of a Fiend God. And yet, that would not guarantee that the Deity Fetus would reach the “Tribulation State.” The Tribulation and Dao Reunion Level were two different concepts. Otherwise, Chen Fan wouldn’t have been the only person who had reached the Tribulation Level in the past thousands of years.

“Besides, I wasn’t just a Tribulation Cultivator in my previous life. I killed more than one real Deity from Heaven. Even if the Fiend God under this deity ground is reborn, I’d be able to kill it like chicken, let alone a mere ‘Deity Fetus’ nurtured by a bit of Fiend Qi.”

Chen Fan grunted.

But if he wasn’t the “Deity Fetus,” who was?

Chen Fan was the only human who had become a Dao Reunion Perfected Immortal in the five centuries of his past life.

“Unless… That Deity Fetus was never born, or she died early,” Chen Fan lowered his head and whispered. There was a glint of sadness in his eyes right then.

Chen Fan had guessed the answer, but he couldn’t believe it.

If that was the truth.

Chen Fan would owe her so much he wouldn’t be able to make it up to her in his entire life.

“In my previous life, Master took me with him, but since I was too stupid and had no cultivation talent at all, I ended up reaching the Ethereal Enlightenment Level when I was thirty years old and still wasn’t even close to the Divine Sea Level,” Chen Fan though as memories resurfaced in his eyes.

“When I met Xiao Qiong, she was already a Golden Core Cultivator. In just three years, she reached the Golden Core Level and had a top sacred-grade Golden Core. She was born to cultivate and was the most outstanding disciple among the others in the True Martial Celestial Sect.

“After we met, Xiao Qiong didn’t look down on me, she kept helping and encouraging me. She even married me and swore she would never leave me. And yet, my cultivation progress was far behind her.

“She reached the Connate Level after a year, the Golden Core Level after three years and the Nascent Soul Level after five years!

“Even the teachers of the True Martial Celestial Sect thought Xiao Qiong would be able to become a Soul Formation Cultivator in thirty years at most, and even had hope of reaching the Void Returning or Dao Reunion Level in the future. As for me? I was just a Divine Sea Cultivator. If she didn’t die in the hands of that ‘enemy’ just because she wanted to protect me, she would have been the one who conquered the universe!”

Chen Fan slowly closed his eyes.

As he thought of that enemy, some unforgettable memories and hatred came to Chen Fan’s mind.

He thought he had forgotten about those memories already, but they in fact became even clearer, making Chen Fan clench his fists. His entire body seemed to have gone beyond this universe.

Things he couldn’t understand in his previous life became clear at that moment.

Many details he had not paid attention to in his previous life suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

He couldn’t help but to think about everything he had missed, hated, lost and forgotten in his previous life!

“In my previous life, my Master took me and Xiao Qiong away from Earth. He took Xiao Qiong to the True Martial Celestial Sect and left me somewhere else. If Xiao Qiong had not found me, I would have been killed by some kind of monsters or Connate Cultivator,” Chen Fan thought.

“In this life, Master also passed by the Earth and took away Xiao Qiong, but he didn’t take me.”

“I’m not the Deity Fetus… It’s you!”

“Fang Qiong!” Chen Fan said.

He had been wrong since the beginning. He had thought he was an elite, who was destined to be the most powerful cultivator in the world. And yet, the greatest opportunity on Earth and the “Deity Fetus” born in the Deity Nurturing Ground had actually been Fang Qiong, not him. That was why he had not been able to become a Connate Cultivator after so many years, while Fang Qiong reached the Nascent Soul Level in five years.

“That time, I always wondered why my power suddenly surged after Xiao Qiong died. I could complete a cultivation art and form a Divine Power right away. Xiao Qiong must have transferred her ‘opportunity’ to me.” Chen Fan gave a wry smile and his eyes were full of regrets.

“You silly girl.”

At this moment.

Chen Fan finally understood everything.

Earth was a Deity Nurturing Ground and the “Deity Fetus” was Fang Qiong, which was why Fang Qiong had been so talented. Chen Fan had used to merely be a nameless ordinary man in his previous life. Before Fang Qiong died, she must have passed her energy to Chen Fan through a secret art or special method.

Even though there might only have been one-tenth of the energy left after such a kind of transfer…

It had been “one-tenth of the Deity Fetus” still, which had made Chen Fan’s power and talent soar. His cultivation improved tremendously, becoming a Soul Formation Cultivator in just a century and reaching the Void Returning and Dao Reunion Level after two centuries.

Chen Fan thought that even in his previous life, Master Cangqin had visited Earth only to take Fang Qiong away. Master Cangqin took him away in the end just because Fang Qiong requested it.

After thinking of this, Chen Fan could only smile wryly, feeling a hint of pain in his heart.

“You silly girl. Why were you so stupid? Why did you give me so much? How will I ever pay you back?” Chen Fan shook his head and sighed.

What Chen Fan had achieved in his previous life might have been way beyond what one-tenth of the Deity Fetus could do; not even a complete Deity Fetus would have been able to take Chen Fan to that level. The North Mystic Celestial Lord had been someone on top of the world, even above the Deities, not to mention being a mere Deity Fetus.

However, that didn’t diminish the merit of Fang Qiong’s help in the slightest.

He had been like an elite hidden in the crowd, a dragon trapped in the shallows. After Fang Qiong gave him her energy, he had flown back up into the sky with the help of the wind, becoming the invincible North Mystic Celestial Lord.

Without Fang Qiong—

He might have taken way longer to enter the Connate, Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels. It might have taken him thousands of years to figure out his own path. Although he would have still risen to the level of the “North Mystic Celestial Lord” in the end, that might have taken place millions of years later. And yet, it was also possible that Chen Fan might have died before reaching the Connate level.

Life was an ever-changing journey.

Even Chen Fan wasn’t sure who he would have become without Fang Qiong’s help.

But he would have definitely not been able to rise to the top of the universe in five centuries, creating so much trouble for the Deities.

“Ah!”

Chen Fan waved his hands and everything in front of his eyes disappeared. The dimensional storms outside the Realm of Kunxu started to rage again.

He sat there with his legs crossed. Instead of cultivating, he looked up at the sky.

He was able to see a bright galaxy, where the Central Galaxy was located and where Fang Qiong was. She was billions of light years away from him.

Chen Fan looked at it without blinking his eyes.

He didn’t seem to care about time anymore.

Three days later.

He wiped off the dust on his body and slowly got up. When he looked at himself again; he felt as if he were the most ordinary person without the least bit of energy. His aura and glitters disappeared, leaving no trace on him.

He used to be an ordinary person in his previous life, and then, he became one again.

But his eyes were full of confidence and determination, as if he were able to crush everything.

“In my previous life, I only reached the Dao Reunion and Tribulation Level with the help of Xiao Qiong’s ‘Deity Fetus.’ But in this life, it’s easy for me to rise back to that level on my own. I might even be able to go to Heaven again!” Chen Fan thought as the aura around him shone brighter. He turned into a beam of light and shot up to the sky.

“I must make up for all my regrets and mistakes! I want Xiao Qiong and everyone who loves me to be happy! I must make all my enemies pay! I want the world to know my name again! I want the Deities to be terrified of me! I want to become the most powerful, and one and only in the world with the name of the ‘North Mystic Celestial Lord!'”

His voice became louder—

In the end, it almost resounded around half of the Realm of Kunxu and countless people were astonished.

“After being in the human world for twenty years, I’m going to rise to the top again!”
