Chapter 1025: Chapter 906: Becoming Stronger!
“Activate the second function, Virtual Space?”
“Could it be that the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown is officially mine now??”
Ye Fan found himself in an enclosed space, surrounded by silence, and recalling everything he had just heard, felt extremely shocked.
All along, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown was within him, yet he couldn’t directly connect with it.
In other words, this mysterious and powerful magic artifact was not truly his!
However, now in an attempt to awaken Elder Xuan, he inadvertently activated the second function of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown…
This made him feel that the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown finally belonged to him!
“The Virtual Space is the second function of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown, allowing cultivation and inspiration through it — time in the Virtual Space flows at one-tenth the speed of the outside!” As Ye Fan was still overwhelmed by shock, the voice sounded again.
“What?!”
Ye Fan was completely stunned!
The time in the Virtual Space flows at one-tenth the speed of the outside; doesn’t that mean ten days of cultivation in the Virtual Space equals only one day outside?!
“Then… who are you? Where is Elder Xuan??”
It took him a full half a minute to calm down before attempting to communicate using his mind.
However—
To his frustration, no one replied, and the voice vanished.
“It seems that this must be a mind transmission left by the creator of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown. Since I can’t awaken Elder Xuan, I should first experience the Virtual Space and see if it’s as miraculous as mentioned!”
Seeing no way to awaken Elder Xuan, Ye Fan took out some Essence Stones, set up a ‘Spirit Gathering Array’, and directly entered the meditation state, using the Virtual Space to enter closed training.
With eyes focused on the nose, and the nose on the heart, Ye Fan calmed his consciousness, quickly entering a meditation state. Streams of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged into his body from all directions, circulating along the Grand Circulation.
Gradually, Ye Fan forgot everything, wholeheartedly immersing himself into closed cultivation.
Time flies, days and months flash by.
During Ye Fan’s period of closed cultivation, the world experienced dramatic changes, with the Six Major Alliances starting preparations to build defensive base cities after their meeting.
Meanwhile, the Qinghong Organization was targeted by powerful cultivators who destroyed its secret bases globally, with the Qinghong Organization members inside every base being massacred.
Simultaneously, through the media, each major alliance publicly condemned Chen Daozang and his Qinghong Organization for the immense disaster they brought to world peace, including the virus created for researching the Life Potion that plunged humanity into a nightmare!
Yet, there was no mention of the promised Life Potion by Chen Daozang that nearly made them bow in submission, instead, they passionately denounced the Qinghong Organization’s numerous crimes.
The general public was unaware of the details.
In no time, the Qinghong Organization and Chen Daozang became like rats crossing the street, everyone wanted to hit them. Many underworld forces that once sided with the Qinghong Organization announced their separation and even actively provided any intel on Qinghong to assist their alliances in destroying some of its hidden bases.
Amid such overwhelming trends, the Qinghong Organization soon turned into history, swallowed by the surging crowd, almost uprooted.
Even those Qinghong members who barely escaped reckoning had to change their identities to avoid being recognized.
If recognized by these angry citizens, even as cultivators, they stood no chance; a united spit from people around the world could drown them.
In this situation, elites from the Six Major Alliances teamed up with powerful online hacking, yet couldn’t find any trace of Chen Daozang.
It was as if the man had vanished from the earth.
News feedback to the alliances’ headquarters bolstered their leaders’ belief in Yan’s words, some even speculating that Chen Daozang had already contacted people from the Xuan Realm, no longer on Earth, for he couldn’t evade search by such a mighty force; even a fly would be found.
In truth, Chen Daozang had no contact with the Xuan Realm. Still on Earth, he was simply hiding very deeply, with no one knowing his whereabouts.
Chen Daozang painstakingly managed the Qinghong Organization for years, with forces spanning across the world, not so easily found!
Furthermore, like a wily rabbit with multiple burrows, Chen Daozang was even craftier, with too many and too hidden havens.
At this moment, Chen Daozang was actually hiding in one of Africa’s most secret bases to heal, having suffered severe internal injuries from a battle with Chu Xuanji, forcing him to stay silent and hidden.
This secret base was one of the few secret havens he reserved for himself, surrounded by hundreds of miles of desolation, unlikely to be discovered.
Currently, Chen Daozang was sitting cross-legged in a secret stone room, silently steeling his resolve.
The battle with Chu Xuanji made him feel a deep-seated crisis — he never expected Chu Xuanji to break and then remake, nearly breaking through to that legendary realm, and if not for his Blood Escape Thousand Miles tactic, he would have died!
Although he survived, the price was too high, suffering grievous injuries, nearly perishing, and losing his wife, Meng Binglan, who died in battle.
The most unbearable thing for him was the betrayal by the leaders of the Six Major Alliances and the Five Ancient Forces, who turned against him and launched a bloody purge of his Qinghong Organization.
Years of hard work were destroyed in a flash, almost driving Chen Daozang crazy. If it weren’t for his lack of strength, he would have already gone out and twisted the heads off those people to kick them like balls.
However, he knew very well that in his current situation, he couldn’t show his face. Otherwise, he would undoubtedly become a target for everyone, and Chu Xuanji would definitely not let him go.
“I haven’t lost yet. As long as I’m alive, I will make a comeback. Sooner or later, I will make this world tremble under my feet…”
“I must break through, I must break through. Once I reach the True Essence Realm, who in the world could be my opponent?”
Chen Daozang’s eyes were bloodshot, his entire body exuding a terrifying aura, and he gritted his teeth, saying, “Yan, you old bastard, Ye Family brat, just wait. Once I, Chen Daozang, break through to the True Essence Realm, I’ll make you regret being born into this world!”
After speaking, Chen Daozang forced himself to calm down. At this moment, words were useless, and only by raising his strength could he have a chance for revenge and truly realize his dream of having the world at his feet.
Once completely calm, Chen Daozang sat cross-legged on a meditation mat and began cultivating, striving to break through to the legendary True Essence Realm.
…
Meanwhile, Ye Fan was also undergoing arduous cultivation, but he was luckier than Chen Daozang because he still had the Virtual Space created by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Crown.
At the moment, he was training in the Virtual Space. Although the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi wasn’t very abundant, it was still enough for his cultivation.
After all, it wasn’t the time to break through yet, so he couldn’t utilize the Heaven and Earth Source Liquid and could only rely on his own cultivation to strive for an early breakthrough to the High-level War God Realm.
The ten-to-one time ratio allowed him to have a lot more time to cultivate than others, but Ye Fan was still anxious to quickly break through to the High-level War God Realm.
With the help of the Virtual Space, Ye Fan’s cultivation improved rapidly. Cultivating for ten days in the Virtual Space was equivalent to just one day outside. If others knew about this speed, they would surely be envious, jealous, and hateful to the point of having red eyes.
However, Ye Fan wasn’t satisfied. The mutant beasts from the Xuan Realm could attack at any time, leaving him with very little time.
Every day, Ye Fan spent in grueling cultivation. Although he was at Ao Xiang Villa, he hadn’t met Su Yuxin and the others even once.
Su Liuli and the others also knew the situation was urgent and didn’t have time for personal feelings, so she and Chu Ji both chose to enter closed-door training.
In any case, being able to quickly improve their strength would prevent Ye Fan from worrying too much about them in future battles with the mutant beasts.
Cultivation was grueling, but in their hearts, everyone had no other choice. War could break out at any moment, and they definitely couldn’t leave their fate to the unknown.
While the three were in closed-door training, Su Yuxin and Su Jindi visited once, but neither said anything. They didn’t know about the situation in the Xuan Realm, but they could feel a faint sense of urgency in the air.
“Sister, what’s going on? Why are they all in closed-door training?”
Su Jindi was still in school and didn’t know what was happening, so he asked Su Yuxin.
Su Yuxin shook her head and said with a serious expression, “I don’t know either, but I feel like something big is about to happen, otherwise they wouldn’t all choose to go into closed-door training now.”
“I want to enter closed-door training too. After all, I’m a cultivator myself now, and maybe I can help them when the time comes!” Su Jindi declared confidently.
Su Yuxin chuckled helplessly: “What are you following the crowd for? What can you do with your level of strength?”
Su Jindi rubbed his head and said with a face full of grievance, “I’m just worried, isn’t it? Why can’t they tell us anything? There’s strength in numbers, even three cobblers can make a brilliant strategic mind. Maybe if we brainstorm together, we can solve it!”
“Stop causing trouble and go back to school. If there’s any news, I’ll call you. I have to leave too; there are too many things to deal with in the group. I just took a little time to come over today.”
Su Yuxin felt a bit down not seeing Ye Fan, but she didn’t show it. She was strong-willed, and even though she didn’t know why Ye Fan and her sister Su Liuli had to rush into closed-door training, she still didn’t rashly disturb them.
Su Jindi had no choice. He also knew that cultivators shouldn’t be disturbed during closed-door training, so he reluctantly went back to school.
Before leaving, he repeatedly told Su Yuxin, “Let me know as soon as they come out of seclusion. Don’t forget, I want to ask them personally what happened!”
…
In the villa, Ye Fan didn’t know that Su Yuxin and Su Jindi had been back.
He put all his energy into cultivation, racing against time!
Because…
He was afraid, afraid that before he became truly strong, the war between humans and the mutant beasts of the Xuan Realm would break out!
If that happened, would he have the strength to protect his relatives and friends? He wouldn’t even have the strength to defend Earth, to defend humanity’s home!
“I must become strong, I must become strong quickly!”
This was his heartfelt wish!
