Chapter 841: Chapter 283: The Current Situation, A Glimmer of Hope (4127 words)_2
“Tang Country has four Supreme Powerhouses,” Zhang Hai said, “Li Mu and Zhang Jiang, Han Jiangxue and Chu Qingcheng. They are all at the peak of the Sacred Heavenly Realm 5.”
“But the other six warriors in the Sacred Realm beneath them are all just at the early stages of the Sacred Realm.”
“It’s precisely because of this that Nightmare Hall dares to be so arrogant… because Li Mu and the others each guard Demon City, Imperial City, and Demon City, and they dare not leave these main cities easily.”
“Tang Country is just too large…”
“Chu Qingcheng has his mission, and Li Mu and the other two guard the three main cities. Put in a nice way, it’s as stable as a triangle.”
“Put in a less pleasant way, it’s like a plate of loose sand.”
Fang Yu, Lu Xingyuan, and a few others, all smiled bitterly.
Only Zhang Hai dared to say such things.
Chen Fan pondered thoughtfully.
Sacred Realm powerhouses are few and far between.
There are only six at the peak of the Sacred Realm on the entire Blue Star.
Even those with extreme talent like Li Mu and Zhang Jiang, according to the Blind Man, were taken to the Heavenly Feather Realm by Martial Ancestor Chen Han, who plundered the ancestral graves of the Four Great Holy Lands and divided the power meant for the new generation of Human Emperors, propelling them to the peak of the Sacred Realm in one fell swoop.
For someone like Fang Yu, at the First Layer of the Sacred Heavenly Realm and without such opportunities, there was virtually no hope of achieving a breakthrough to the peak of the Sacred Realm in this lifetime!
Zhang Hai continued, “In direct confrontation, we don’t need the Sacred Realm warriors of Yang Nation or Star Nation to make a move. Our Tang Country can crush Nightmare Hall.”
“But the thing about warfare is that it can never be fair.”
“Nightmare Hall can have its Five Great Demon Kings attack at once, but it’s very difficult for our Tang Country’s several Supreme Powerhouses to join hands.”
“Without other peak Sacred Realm warriors, Li Mu doesn’t even dare to leave Demon City.”
The faces of those present grew somewhat grave.
Zhang Hai said, “Originally… it was nearly impossible for Blue Star to produce another peak Sacred Realm powerhouse within a hundred years.”
“But now, it’s different…”
Zhang Hai looked at Chen Fan, but did not continue.
In his eyes, Chen Fan saw hope.
He understood Zhang Hai’s implications.
To others, reaching the peak of the Sacred Realm was an unattainable dream.
But for him and Empress Ye Hongyan of the Demon Race, it was only a matter of time.
Empress Ye Hongyan had already been at the Sacred Heavenly Realm 3.”
Now, with two Five-colored Divine Stones in her possession, and relying on her Red Bird true form, she was very likely to achieve a breakthrough to the peak of the Sacred Realm in a short time.
And Chen Fan, he had already transformed into a Divine Body…
The peak of the Sacred Realm, after all, is just the pinnacle for mortals.
But Chen Fan, he was already a god!
Even if he was the weakest among gods.
He was already far above mortals!
In addition, he possessed a heaven-defying method to help other strongmen achieve a breakthrough!
After a moment of silence, Zhang Hai revealed Li Mu’s plan.
Li Mu’s plan was to have Chen Fan first help several of Tang Country’s Ninth-grade Experts and early Sacred Realm warriors to cultivate Guardian Beasts.
Tang Country having a few more Sacred Realm warriors or even one more rank increase for the Sacred Realm could change the fate of countless people.
Like now, with Li Mu in Demon City, Zhang Jiang in Imperial City, and Han Jiangxue in Demon City, they didn’t dare to leave their posts lightly.
For two reasons…
Firstly, Nightmare Hall was watching them like a tiger eyeing its prey; if they left, it would be easy for something bad to happen;
Secondly, Demon City, Imperial City, and Demon City each stood guard over a major Restricted Area;
And these Restricted Areas are no minor matter…
Ordinary Sacred Realm powerhouses simply couldn’t suppress them.
For example, “Restricted Area 0” in Demon City. This Restricted Area is very strange, full of demons.
For many years, Nightmare Hall has always wanted to enter this Restricted Area.
Because Nightmare Hall possesses a mysterious power that can control demons.
If “Restricted Area 0” falls into the hands of Nightmare Hall, the consequences are unimaginable!
The situation in Imperial City and Demon City is similar.
Zhang Jiang and Han Jiangxue, like gatekeepers, each guard a Restricted Area.
The Restricted Area in Demon City faces an endless swarm of the Insect Race;
The Restricted Area in Imperial City, Zhang Jiang faces the fierce and violent Centaur legion.
In the Far North, Empress Ye Hongyan leads the Demon Race, likewise guarding a Restricted Area, which is also home to the Centaur race.
On the surface, Tang Country seems calm, but underneath, the undercurrent is raging.
Within the main city, the peace and contentment of the people are due to countless strongmen spilling their blood.
The pressure on Tang Country is truly immense.
But over the years…
A ray of hope was rising, beyond Martial Ancestor Chen Han.
This ray of hope was Chen Fan.
Chen Fan’s heaven-defying Beast-raising methods brought tears of joy to Li Mu and Zhang Jiang!
If Chen Fan could help the few Ninth-grade experts of Tang Country, who were at the pinnacle, breakthrough to the Sacred Realm…
Or help the Guardian Beasts of Sacred Realm powerhouses elevate their cultivation and strength to the next level.
The fate of Tang Country and Blue Star would change accordingly!
“Xiaofan…” Zhang Hai hesitated before he said, “Li Mu asked me to inquire if you could temporarily halt the cultivation of other Guardian Beasts, including that of the Ninth Store… and prioritize cultivating Guardian Beasts for Ninth-grade experts and those in the Sacred Realm?”
“Whether you’re short on money or resources, Tang Country can solve that for you.”
“We can utilize the power of the entire nation to resolve it for you.”
Lu Xingyuan and Fang Yu looked quietly towards Chen Fan.
Chen Fan smiled and said, “Master, cultivating other Guardian Beasts doesn’t interfere with my cultivation of Guardian Beasts for Ninth-grade experts and those in the Sacred Realm.”
“The only issue I encounter is with materials…”
“Simply put, if the ministers can procure for me the materials I need, no matter the level of the Guardian Beast, I can easily help it breakthrough.”
The entire audience fell into a stunned silence.
Even Zhang Hai, who knew Chen Fan the most, as well as Zhou Ye and Lu Xingyuan, who had witnessed Chen Fan’s methods, showed disbelief!
To easily help any Guardian Beast breakthrough, regardless of its level…
How arrogant!
How heaven-defying!
How unimaginable!
Seeing everyone gobsmacked, Chen Fan added, “Take the Black Heart Demon Spirit Flower I requested earlier, for example.”
“I’ve just elevated the Dark Moon White Tiger by one Combat Power Level and one Species Level, but if you have a Black Heart Demon Spirit Flower now, with the other materials ready, I could help Dark Moon breakthrough another Combat Power Level immediately.”
Lu Xingyuan was stunned.
Zhou Ye and the others were also stunned.
Previously, Chen Fan had mentioned that he helped Dark Moon breakthrough because they had been cultivating it for a long time, and Chen Fan was just giving it a final push.
But it had only been a couple of days since Dark Moon’s breakthrough, and Chen Fan was now saying, with complete materials, he could immediately help Dark Moon make another breakthrough.
This…
What did this imply?
It meant that as long as he could find the relevant materials, Chen Fan could effortlessly help a Guardian Beast breakthrough and, by aiding through the Guardian Beasts, help individuals in the Ninth Grade Realm and Sacred Realm to breakthrough!
Nobody dared not believe Chen Fan’s words.
Even Fang Yu, who had just arrived in Demon City, had no doubts.
Still, it was truly fantastical!
Is this… what a god is?
Lu Xingyuan looked at Chen Fan, dazed.
The matter of Chen Fan’s Divine Body wasn’t known to many in Tang Country.
He was one of the privy.
Chen Fan continued, “There are only a handful of people at the Ninth Grade Realm’s peak and in the Sacred Realm in the whole Tang Country.”
“Cultivating Guardian Beasts for others doesn’t conflict with assisting these powerhouses at all.”
“By the way, I’ve already asked Chu Xuan to look for the Black Heart Demon Spirit Flower.”
“Please help me gather all the materials on the list I gave you as soon as possible.”
“Perhaps, in a few days, I might help Dark Moon breakthrough another Combat Power Level.”
“Good, very good, hahaha!” Lu Xingyuan was overwhelmingly excited, as he firmly held Chen Fan’s hand, “Young man, we’re all counting on you!”
His generation was a step below that of Zhang Hai, so he and Chen Fan addressed each other as brothers.
Fang Yu, becoming excited, started to gesticulate, “Then…”
“Then what?” Zhang Hai said, “Find a larger training ground and summon your Guardian Beasts, let Xiaofan take a look.”
“Also Xingyuan, summon out your other Guardian Beasts as well.”
Zhou Ye immediately said, “No need to go far, right behind this building will do, there is a training ground there.”
Fang Yu flicked his sleeve, and a swirl of Cloud Qi enveloped everyone, whisking them directly out through the shattered window.
“Crash!”
The glass of the windows shattered completely, scattering on the ground.
Zhang Hai: “…”
Before even touching the ground below.
“Whoosh!”
With a slight motion of Fang Yu’s finger, a flash of light passed and a barrier enveloped a hundred-meter radius.
Then, both he and Lu Xingyuan almost simultaneously summoned their respective Guardian Beasts.
