Chapter 1159: Like Ants

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Ah!”

When the sigh was heard—

Everyone had been simultaneously shocked by it.

The Divine Princes and elders turned around and saw a young man in a black outfit walking slowly in the air, as if emerging from the depths of the universe with hands behind his back.

He had black hair and black eyes, and was wearing a black robe with twelve pictures printed on it: flower, bird, fish, insect, mountain, river, the sun, the moon and people on Planet East. He was wearing the Divine Lord crown and was good-looking; he seemed to be a seventeen-year-old young man. He looked exactly like the “Chen Fan” who had fought with the three Divine Princes, as if they were twin brothers.

However—

That Chen Fan was much more realistic than the one who had fought with the three Divine Princes. He had a more substantial, human-like presence.

“That was indeed his clone!”

An elder gasped.

The Divine Princes also turned pale.

In fact, the Divine Sects in the Star Ocean had collected a lot of Chen Fan’s information. The battle between him and Divine Prince Yi Qian had even been the main focus of the reports. Since the cultivators from other planets had also watched that battle, apart from the billions of people on Earth, only those Nascent Soul cultivators from other planets were able to see the details of the battle; most of the information had been spread to the Star Ocean from word of mouth.

There was no way the Divine Princes hadn’t looked into Chen Fan’s information before traveling to Earth.

And yet, they were too arrogant after all. They thought that Earth was just a barren planet, so how powerful could Chen Fan be? The power Chen Fan’s clone had shown was also within their expectations. He had fought against three Divine Princes alone and was only at a disadvantage moments before. Such a powerful strength matched his identity of being the top Overlord in the Abandoned Planet Region, but it wouldn’t be deemed as someone with more power.

If someone said there was a super talent—who would regularly only appear in the Central Galaxy—in the Abandoned Planet Region around the barren area of the universe…

Even the Grand Cultivators behind it all would have been skeptical, let alone the Divine Princes!

So, the Divine Princes had only glanced over the report; none of them had read it carefully. Being a woman, Qiao Yu would usually pay more attention to details after all. Besides, she had traveled to planet Earth before and she knew that Chen Fan’s clone was on the top of Mount North Qiong. She felt doubtful from the bottom of her heart after observing Chen Fan fight.

However, the situation became completely different when the real Chen Fan appeared.

“He fought with the three Divine Princes to this point with a clone?”

Everyone felt a chill down their spines once they thought about this.

They knew there were many cultivation arts for creating clones in the Realm of Cultivation, but they could never be more powerful than the real bodies. In fact, the power of the clones might even be two times weaker than the cultivators themselves.

If the clone of a cultivator were the same as his real body, he would clearly be at an advantage when fighting two against one. Especially for those Overlords on the top of the world like the Soul Formation Grand Cultivators; there would be one more Grand Cultivator if they had a clone, and they could certainly suppress the other sects. So, the more powerful the Clone Arts were, the closer the strength of the clones to the real bodies and the more treasurable they were.

A Celestial Sect in the Central Galaxy had a Grand Divine Power called “One to Three.” It could be used to create three clones that had powers comparable to the real body’s.

That Divine Power was ranked as one of the top ten super cultivation arts on the Universe Wonderful Art Roll; it was a truly earth-shattering and powerful Divine Power. That Celestial Sect dominated the Star Ocean with that Divine Power. So, a Divine Power was enough to determine the fate of a Celestial Sect or a sacred ground.

Chen Fan’s clone would have never been more powerful than his real body, no matter what.

Then, they had to find out how strong the real him was.

“It seems that you had fun bullying my clone. You even besieged him.” Chen Fan waved his hand gently and the Nine Orifices Divine Infant stuck in the tough battle with the three Divine Princes turned into a beam of golden light, immediately shooting back to him.

Yuan Yi frowned and looked at Chen Fan with a sour look.

Even Lin Yang and Wang Wei looked upset.

After fighting so hard, they found out it had only been a clone. It wouldn’t have helped much even if they killed him. Lin Yang was almost spurting out blood. He had lost a total of three Substitute Divine Talismans. Each of them was as precious as a Nascent Soul Spirit Treasure.

The Grand Divine Prince, Qin Feng, spoke for the first time. “You’re Chen Beixuan? You really had us fooled with your clone. You’re indeed the top Overlord on the whole Planet East, or even the entire Abandoned Planet Region.”

He spoke seriously as he pulled the reins in his hand and rode the hundred-foot nine-winged fire phoenix surrounded by thousands of fires like the God of War.

That was the first time Qin Feng had complimented Chen Fan, looking him in the eye and recognizing his strength.

“Abandoned Planet Region… I don’t like the name. You can call it Planet East Region or ‘Milky Way,’” Chen Fan said gently. He used his Immortal Will to repair his Nine Orifices Divine Infant while he spoke.

His Nascent Soul looked awful after having fought continuously.

An arm and a leg had been disintegrated and its body was covered with wounds. Its power had even dropped to the mid-stage Nascent Soul level. However, with Chen Fan’s unimaginably powerful Immortal Will, plumes of golden smoke billowed out of the Nine Orifices Divine Infant’s mouth, healing at a visible speed.

“The Milky Way… This is how you call it on Earth, right?”

Qin Feng frowned slightly. “I can change it to this name. If you join the Apollo Palace, I can offer you the entire Ab… Planet East Region and grant you the title of ‘Divine General Planet East.’ After that, you’ll be the Lord of all the surrounding planets, including this one. Apart from the opportunity found on this planet, we’ll take nothing else, and I’ll allow the Chen family to rule this region forever!”

Qin Feng offered to confer the title of Divine General to Chen Fan again.

That wasn’t an edict delivered by Divine General Naran, but a promise from the first Divine Prince of the Apollo Palace. Not even their Emperor would retract from such a commitment.

Many people were shocked, but then, they understood.

Qin Feng was interested in Chen Fan’s strength and he truly cherished such a talent. Chen Fan’s clone was already that powerful, so what about his real body?

A glint of displeasure flashed in Lin Yang and Wang Wei’s eyes, but they didn’t say anything in the end. The elders and Divine Generals were also worried about Chen Fan’s power. His clone was already able to fight against three Divine Princes… would his real body be able to shake the sun and the moon?

“What do you think? We can negotiate the terms further if you’re unsatisfied with the offer.” Qin Feng was very sincere.

But Chen Fan only chuckled.

“Your subordinates attacked the North Qiong Sect and injured my disciples. And now, you come to attack Earth with a hundred thousand soldiers. Do you really think I’m a pushover? Besides, you’re merely a Nascent Soul cultivator, yet you want me to work for you. You’ve overrated yourself,” Chen Fan said calmly as if merely stating facts.

He was the reincarnation of the North Mystic Celestial Lord. Not even the Sect Masters of the Celestial Sects had been able to subdue him, let alone a so-called Divine Prince from a barren planet region in the universe.

“Hm?”

Qin Feng immediately became cold and his eyes were full of cold glitters after hearing that.

The elders of Apollo Palace were even enraged, “You arrogant man, you have no idea what you’re doing. Our Divine Prince is acting quite sincerely, but you dare to humiliate him.”

“He’s too arrogant. We can’t let him live!”

“Attack! Let’s see what he’s capable of.”

The Divine Princes were all enraged.

Qin Feng was the most powerful one among them. If Chen Fan looked down on him, didn’t it mean that he despised everyone else present? How could the complacent Divine Princes accept that?

Suddenly, a voice was heard.”I get it now. That’s what happened.”

Everyone turned around in shock and they saw the Divine Prince of the Taichu Sect chuckle and say, “Chen Beixuan, you startled me. I thought you were truly powerful, already at the Soul Formation level. But after thinking for a while, that ‘Nine Orifices Divine Infant’ isn’t actually your clone. It’s obviously made with something like a Divine Pill or a treasure. It should be an object, like a puppet. You almost fooled us.”

There were worlds appearing and disappearing around the Divine Prince of the Taichu Sect. His eyes even had images of the sky breaking and the sun and the moon falling.

“A puppet? A treasure?”

All the cultivators who heard this were surprised. The Divine Princes even seemed to have a lot in their minds.

A clone purely created with a Divine Power would certainly be much weaker than a real body. Only Soul Formation Grand Cultivators or Half Grand Cultivators could form clones with the power of peak-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. That was why everyone was so fearful.

But it would be a completely different matter if it had been made with some kind of treasure or puppet.

Some sacred grounds and large sects deep in the universe would even use Soul Formation puppets to act as guards and suppress the other sects. The famous Puppet Sect was said to specialize in Puppet Arts. Their puppets were even more powerful than the cultivators themselves. So, Chen Fan’s real body might not be any stronger than the Nine Orifices Divine Infant.

“Is it really a Puppet Art?”

The Divine Princes and elders sized the Nine Orifices Divine Infant up.

It looked exactly like Chen Fan, but it had in fact been formed purely by Immortal Will. It carried some weird energy and was born and nurtured naturally. It apparently had some kind of treasure instead of something created with a Divine Power.

“Haha, it turns out you’re only relying on the power of a treasure. You almost scared me.” Lin Yang snickered.

“Pretty clever, but it’s useless.” Qiao Zhen shook his head.

Yuan Yi directly moved his chariot without saying a word as the Double-Winged Dragon let out a clear roar and sped forward towards Chen Fan. Many Divine Generals led the hundred thousand Golden Core Cultivators to surround Chen Fan from all directions, sealing the entire space. There was no way Chen Fan could escape.

The other Divine Princes—including Lin Yang, Wang Wei, the Divine Prince of the Taichu Sect and the Divine Prince of the Niekong Sect—also went forward.

Qin Feng said indifferently, “Chen Beixuan, I’m giving you one last chance. Kneel and accept the offer. When you become my Divine General, I’ll let the Chen family rule Planet East forever. If you resist, I can only exterminate the North Qiong Sect and kill all the disciples of your sect.”

A Nascent Soul elder from Apollo Palace yelled, “His Majesty is showing you kindness. Chen Beixuan, kneel and thank him quickly!”

Many elders were sneering. How would the Nascent Soul cultivators from the large sects take Chen Fan, who was similar or even inferior to a clone, seriously? They could crush such an ant easily. Why was there a need to negotiate with him?

As he faced the enemies who were besieging him from all directions, Chen Fan only said two words, gently, with a calm look.

“Shut up.”

Then, he raised his crystal clear hand and smacked down.

Boom!

An unimaginable power exploded in space. The entire world shook, as if the universe were collapsing, the planets were shattering and the sun and moon were falling! An extremely terrifying Dharma Power swept over the nearby region of the universe, scaring countless people. Not even the Nascent Soul elders were able to stand still; their bodies swayed side to side.

At that moment, Chen Fan was like the God King who stepped out straight from the ancient times, watching everyone in the world. The Divine Princes were like ants underneath his feet!
