Chapter 2152 - 2013: Founding of the Central Plains Sacred Land

Chapter 2152: Chapter 2013: Founding of the Central Plains Sacred Land

A few days later, Ye Fan and Yaling bid farewell to everyone at the Treasure Pavilion and returned to Stone Village.

Naturally, Yaling’s arrival was met with a grand welcoming ceremony.

Yaling carried herself graciously, confident and at ease.

With her high emotional intelligence and exceptional skills, Yaling quickly bonded with the people from Earth.

She connected particularly well with Chu Ji; they were kindred spirits, and if not for Chu Ji’s identity as Ye Fan’s aunt, they would have already called each other sisters.

Of course, her relationship with Su Yuxin was also close, and they became inseparable best friends, which allowed Ye Fan to finally feel at ease.

At first, he was really worried that Yaling might not get along with everyone, especially considering her prestigious status, equivalent to a Holy Maiden of the Sacred Land, a status that did not pale in comparison to the leaders of various forces.

The people from Earth, despite their excellent talent and potential, still had low cultivation levels and did not match her status.

Seeing Yaling always considering him and not putting on any airs as the Holy Maiden of the Treasure Pavilion, he felt very relieved.

He also felt that she was making a sacrifice, considering that had she not come, she could have taken over her grandfather’s position in a few years and become the female Saint of the Treasure Pavilion.

Inside Stone Village, the atmosphere was harmonious, and the cultivation vibe was strong. Under Lv Zhan’s guidance, those with cultivation potential were making remarkable progress every day.

Anyway, the Central Plains Sacred Land was finally on the right track, and everyone was busy preparing for the establishment ceremony of the Central Plains Sacred Land.

Establishing a sect was no simple task; personnel arrangements alone left Ye Fan somewhat at a loss.

Fortunately, with Yaling’s help, she brought in a large number of experts from the Treasure Pavilion, resolving his urgent needs, allowing him to focus on recording various cultivation techniques, martial arts, and secret techniques, and setting up a hierarchy.

The hierarchy in a Sacred Land is crucial; otherwise, chaos would ensue.

At the same time, he categorized and refined various Spiritual Artifacts collected by Bai Yan wolf from the Zhou Family.

Suddenly, the entire Stone Village was bustling; even Bai Yan wolf, Peacock, and rebellious Dragon were sent by Ye Fan to deliver invitations to various forces, inviting them to the establishment ceremony of the Central Plains Sacred Land.

The Three Beasts issued invitations—who would dare decline?

The Golden Divine Dragon, a Divine Beast alongside Immortals.

While the Peacock was a tier lower, it was still a descendant of the invincible Peacock King from Ancient Times.

As for Bai Yan wolf, it’s a given—it’s known for having followed the Thunder Venerable master, which numerous Heroic Lords respected, not to mention its mastery in array patterns. If it targeted a particular inheritance, that inheritance was truly doomed.

Time flew, and the day for the establishment of the Central Plains Sacred Land finally arrived.

That day, Stone Village was adorned with lights and festivity, lively and bustling, as Heroic Lords from various forces came to offer their congratulations, wishing the Central Plains Sacred Land eternal prosperity.

This date was meticulously calculated by the Evil Emperor, who claimed it would guarantee the Central Plains Sacred Land’s everlasting success.

Of course, it was derived from a lifetime of the Evil Emperor’s study of metaphysics, extracting wisdom from the enigmatic Book of Changes.

Ye Fan, however, held an unwavering belief in the Book of Changes.

Given the existence of the Fu Xi Emperor, it’s likely that the legendary figures from Huaxia’s ancient myths were somewhat real, albeit exaggerated.

He believed that even if he encountered Immortal Master Erlang now, he could effortlessly defeat him.

Thus, the Huaxia legends weren’t baseless nor merely fantasies of the ancestors, but might have truly happened.

Otherwise, in this era of advanced technology, why do Earth people admire cultivation, while science struggles to break the confines of mythical records?

The arrival of the Heroic Lords from various forces kept Ye Fan busy arranging accommodations and engaging in conversations with them.

After all, he was the pillar of the Central Plains Sacred Land, the real leader; even though he had previously defeated a Quasi-Emperor and showcased his prowess, neglecting to personally receive guests could be seen as disrespectful.

The Immortal Academy Director Old Immortal, Imperial Academy Director Monk Dao Yan, Spirit Manor Master, and others arrived first, followed by the Saints and Saint Heirs from various families, bringing gifts to congratulate the establishment of the Central Plains Sacred Land.

Upon reaching the outskirts of Stone Village, these guests were astounded; the Mountain Protection Array seemed to radiate the aura of the Great Emperor, a defensive formation none could breach unless they were the Emperor himself.

Naturally, to express the sincerity of the Central Plains Sacred Land, Ye Fan led the Three Beasts and Yaling to personally welcome the Heroic Lords.

"Brother Ye truly knows how to gather talents from all over the world!"

One Heroic Lord half-joked, saying, "Brother Ye’s Mountain Protection Array subtly carries the aura of the Great Emperor, leaving us all in awe!"

"Oh, not at all, it’s just a little trick that made everyone laugh." Ye Fan humbly replied.

"What are you talking about! That’s the work of this King; to break this formation, you’d need a Quasi-Emperor Ninth Layer Heaven, otherwise don’t even think about it." Bai Yan wolf boastfully said.

Are you kidding? Its array mastery has reached great success, and except for the array patterns of the Ancient Emperor, there’s nothing it can’t handle.

Moreover, it has the rebellious Dragon, the Golden Divine Dragon, to help. Although the Little Scoundrel lost most of its memories during Nirvana, it still has a keen eye for array patterns.

Once comparable to an Emperor, its vision is naturally unmatched; even the rebellious Dragon thinks its array mastery has reached an advanced level. How can anyone deny it?

Seeing Ye Fan engaged in effortless, respectful banter with the heroic lords of all sides, the young generation’s Saint Heirs were in awe.

Once upon a time, Ye Fan was their peer, starting on the same line, and they even had advantages over him in resources and status.

Yet now, Ye Fan can support an entire Sacred Land by himself, becoming the founding and ancestral Saint Lord, while they still live under the shadow of their predecessors.

Truly, comparing oneself to others can only lead to despair!

They deeply felt that Ye Fan and they were now people from two different worlds, and not only them, but even their Saint Lords had to look at Ye Fan with new eyes.

After all, someone who can turn back and slay a Quasi-Emperor and sweep through the Ancient Families deserves the respect of the Saint Lords.

The next day!

At the break of dawn, the sun rose!

Stone Village welcomed its most glorious day.

This once overlooked and desolate ancient village became the focal point of the entire Xuan Realm.

The Five Domains’ invitees all arrived, and many families and Sacred Lands not on the initial invite list also sent representatives with generous gifts to express their congratulations.

To these people, Ye Fan treated them with courtesy, acknowledging that their presence gave due respect to the Central Plains Sacred Land.

As the early sun rose, the entire Stone Village was bathed in a golden glow by the new sun, with the Primordial Qi of Heaven and Earth enveloping it like mist or a halo, making it feel like stepping into an Immortal Realm, refreshing and invigorating.

In front of the ancient, quaint Xuankong Island hall, Ye Fan stood proudly, akin to a Great Emperor, with the morning sun casting a brilliant glow upon him.

"Everyone, I invited you here today to announce the founding of the Central Plains Sacred Land. I hope all fellow Daoists will lend your aid to let the Central Plains Sacred Land take root, sprout, and grow strong on this land..."

Ye Fan spoke passionately, with words that every founding Sacred Land usually utters, causing the crowd to whisper in admiration.

Undoubtedly, the declaration of the Central Plains Sacred Land’s founding went smoothly, with many heroic lords already expressing their willingness to coexist harmoniously and foster good relations with it.

Naturally, at this moment, those Sacred Lands and families at odds with Ye Fan could only gnash their teeth in envy, secretly hoping Ye Fan would encounter trouble in his founding endeavors.

However, their hopes were destined to remain unfulfilled, with several Quasi-Emperors supporting him. Even the disapproving Demon Clan said nothing, much less them.

Following that, Ye Fan’s announcement regarding the personnel arrangements for the Central Plains Sacred Land left everyone dumbfounded.

Because Ye Fan publicly declared the Central Plains Sacred Land’s Supreme Elder as Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji and Great Elder as Witch Chu Ji.

The heroes of the Xuan Realm had never heard of these two, not knowing what divine beings they were.

However, no one objected to Ye Fan appointing the Three Beasts as elders.

After all, the Three Beasts were all of Saint Lord level cultivation. Not to mention a newly founded Sacred Land, even in any existing Sacred Land, they would hold the position of Supreme Elder.

Subsequently, Ye Fan announced Hu Fei, Shi Ye, Gu Rui, Sikong Po, and others as Guest Elders, and Yaling as the Law Enforcement Elder.

No one had any objections to these either, for everyone knew these individuals had a close relationship with Ye Fan. With Ye Fan founding a Sacred Land, their roles as Guest Elders were only natural.

Especially Cier Mei Yaling as Law Enforcement Elder, she truly deserved it, being famous for recognizing no family ties and not bending to favoritism.

However, to have Yaling willingly become a Law Enforcement Elder of a new Sacred Land, only Ye Fan could have such influence.

"Saint Ye, please bring out the Supreme Elder and Great Elder to let us have a look?" a heroic lord suggested, voicing everyone’s curiosity.

All the Saint Lords present were very curious about the identity of this Supreme Elder.

Given that Ye Fan is already a formidable figure capable of defeating Quasi-Emperors, while the Saint Lord certainly has the final say, the Supreme Elder can overrule and interfere with the Saint Lord’s decisions.

People were eager to know what divine figure could fulfill the role of the Central Plains Sacred Land’s Supreme Elder.

At this moment, even the curiosity of the Old Bastards was piqued.

In their view, anyone sitting as the Supreme Elder in such a Sacred Land must at least be a Quasi-Emperor, if not at least a strong one at the peak of the Venerable Realm.

Just as everyone was anxiously waiting, Ye Fan loudly announced, inviting the Supreme Elder, Evil Emperor of Huaxia, Chu Xuanji, and Witch Chu Ji to appear!
