The First Cultivator - Changing Existence-Chapter 811: War is Coming -
Chapter 811 - War is Coming - 811
Zhou Fan and his allies made their way towards the Origin Civilization, standing in between it and the approaching enemies.
It did not take long for them and their entire sects to arrive. Countless powerful beings were present, though Zhou Fan did not feel as much danger from them as before. That wasn't to say there was no danger at all, but that he had gotten stronger, and the threshold of feeling danger had increased greatly.
With a mastered Rule and the Rule of Chaos, he was confident in fighting three realms above his own.
He understood that the strongest beings in the future were known as Celestial Emperor's. This was not the name of a realm, but a title.
He also knew that no Celestial Emperor had come to the Origin Era. Their presence would have destroyed the Universe, just as a few Earth Immortal's would have done before the Universe's expansion.
The sects stopped not far in front of Zhou Fan and his allies.
Some figures stepped out from the sects, while some voices simply traveled from within them.
"Move aside. There is nothing to gain by dying with this man." A voice said.
It came from a sect located upon a large, demonic skull. Flames filled the air around it, making the average temperature hotter than the sun.
None of Zhou Fan's allies stepped aside. It wasn't that they were loyal, but that they wouldn't have come at all if they were going to step aside with a single sentence.
None of these people were pushovers, and would not break their agreement without sufficient danger.
"Attacking is not going to do anything for you. Simply take back your hostilities, and I'm sure our friend here wouldn't mind giving you some benefits." One of Zhou Fan's allies said.
"What's the point in increasing our cultivation if everyone else does as well. This is an opportunity belonging to the one who deserves it most, and that will be me." A figure said.
"Nonsense. It will be mine."
"I'm afraid I will be taking that."
Opposite to Zhou Fan, many voices argued with each other.
Zhou Fan finally stepped forward and spoke.
"I understand that all of you will be unwilling to back down from this completely, but I would like to help you better understand your situation." Zhou Fan said.
All attention turned to him. He was the focus of this entire event.
"Since you have all learned that I have mastered a rule, you may understand just how powerful it is. Allow me to explain. If I go all out, I can ensure that you never increase your cultivation by a single realm for as long as you live. Not just you, but your entire bloodline for the rest of eternity. You will be banished from ever growing again."
His words caused everyone to be stunned. They had never imagined that he held this power.
"How do we know you aren't bluffing?" A voice asked.
"Wanna find out?"
Silence reigned over the area.
"Perhaps some of you are willing to ignore this threat and attack anyway. In that case, I would like to remind you that the destruction of the Origin Era would not affect most of those in the future. Those who had lived in this time, however, would surely be at least slightly affected. Do you think you will be able to endure their wrath?" Zhou Fan asked.
This brought up a thought all of them had been thinking.
"Hah! How do you know that anyone from the Origin Era survived to the present day?" A voice asked.
"Ying Xiong." Zhou Fan said.
It was just a name, only two words, but not a single person spoke again.
"Of course, I don't mean to force you into a corner."
Zhou Fan had observed the nature of living beings for countless years. These threats may bring him peace for a time, but there were always some people willing to forego all risks.
If someone too powerful disregarded everything and destroyed the Origin Era, Zhou Fan could get his revenge, but he would die, or at the very least, everything he knew would be destroyed.
Therefore, he had to give an out.
"I only wish to restrict the greatest opponents from interfering. I simply request that all top fighters of the sects do not take action. You can send as many others as you wish."
The strongest people who had come to the Origin Era hesitated, but eventually agreed.
"There is only one condition." A voice said. Its presence was overwhelming, startling even the top fighters present.
"What?" Zhou Fan asked.
"The Sword King of Nirvana's Gate will not participate."
Zhou Fan nodded. "That can be done. What do you say?"
The Sword King of Nirvana's Gate nodded. "I naturally have no problem. Since this is a fickle agreement in the first place, I will attack if you are pushed to the edge. I am not one to quit before repaying favors."
Zhou Fan nodded his head, and the agreement was formed.
Still, although complete annihilation was avoided, great war was on the way. Even he would not be able to end it any time soon.
He entered the Origin Civilization and spread the news. War was coming.
The Path Creators, who had long entered seclusion, began to come out. Many were deep into the False Immortal realm. Zhou Fan had used the Rule of Growth to ensure that each and every one of them was able to smoothly advance.
They had not done much recently, knowing they would have no effect on the overall situation.
However, there was now no choice.
Mi was also in the False Immortal realm, but had long continued the tradition of passing his knowledge down to generations after him, just as the Sages had done long, long ago.
Many cultivators sat at the peak, simply waiting to reach the False Immortal realm. They would be of great assistance in the upcoming wars. freewebnøvel.com
Zhou Fan ordered a meeting between all beings within the Origin Civilization, with the goal of preparing for war.
