Chapter 1060: The Grand Event Began
More people surged into Qin Yang County as the event was about to begin. In the end, there were about a hundred thousand people in the city. All the television stations and the most authoritative live-broadcast media around the country were there.
Apart from cultivators, there were also many tourists along the way.
Even though they couldn’t get into the venue, they could watch live-broadcasts in pubs, bars, hotels or even outdoors. After all, there weren’t many chances for them to see the Connate and the Divine Sea Cultivators. Divine Sea Cultivators would battle during this cultivation event, and even Connate Cultivators might join the fight. So, who wouldn’t want to go and see this?
People said the large sects in the country—like the Ba Ji Sect, the Tai Chi Sect and the Wu family—had sent their cultivators there. They were all being led by an Immortal State Warrior and there might even be Connate Cultivators, but they would be the last to arrive.
Other than Yan Junze, Chen Fan also saw Jiang Feifei, Chu Yun, Lu Yang and Xiao Xuan. They were surrounded by a group of young people who were Foundation Establishment Cultivators. They only nodded and left immediately when they saw Chen Fan. Lu Yang and the others didn’t even look at him.
Someone asked about Chen Fan.
“Who’s that? Is he one of the young masters in Chu Zhou City?”
Xiao Xuan then replied, “He’s just a friend of Sister Feifei’s aunt. He didn’t even dare to accept Lu Yang’s challenge once. Lu Yang promised he wouldn’t use his Dharma Power and True Qi to fight, but that guy still rejected him. He’s not the same as us.”
“I see.”
Everyone smiled.
Since Chen Fan wasn’t a cultivator, he wouldn’t be on the same level as they were, no matter how high his social standing was. Many of them shook their heads and ignored him.
The third day.
The event finally started.
This day, people flooded to the venue in the outskirts of Qin Yang County. It was an outdoor venue and was as large as ten stadiums. The disciples of the large families in Jiang Bei were guarding the entrance. Those who wanted to enter had to have an invitation, or they wouldn’t be allowed in.
“This event was organized for the high-level cultivators before, but it’s become an occasion for the families and sects to fight for the top place. The best part of it are the ‘sect battles.’ The sect who wins can have the biggest amount of interests in the Jiang Bei province. Many sects in the country send their young disciples here,” Yan Junze said as he took out his invitation.
Chen Fan looked around.
A lot of young cultivators in different outfits were entering the venue through another passage.
“Ah, I wonder when I’ll be able to get on the stage and defeat all the cultivators from the large sects and families in Jiang Bei, or even around China, becoming the top cultivator of the younger generation. How amazing would that be! I guess even Wu Shishi would come to me by then,” Yan Junze said sadly.
Wu Shishi was a famous movie star in recent years. She was young, gorgeous, sweet and cute, and was Yan Junze’s dream lover.
Chen Fan patted his shoulder and said, “You will one day.”
The atmosphere was completely different once they entered the venue. There were people going on the highest stage in the hall and each of them carried a powerful energy that made them seem like dinosaurs. People nearby cheered when they appeared.
“Zhao Deyang from the Zhao family in Chu Zhou City. He’s a Martial Artist with powerful Internal Force and is now a Divine Sea Cultivator.”
“Luo Guojun from the Luo family in Tian He City. I heard he’s just retired from the army. He has incredible power and is said to be able to withstand attacks from Dharma Treasures and flying swords.”
“Master Xuanjian from the Xuanjian Arena in Qin Shui City. He’s the most powerful swordsman in Jiang Bei and even Tang Yuanqin speaks highly of him…”
People exclaimed every time a Divine Sea Cultivator entered.
Chen Fan noticed that things were really different at the moment. Even a girl with golden hair and luxurious clothes behind him was obsessed with those cultivators.
Those Divine Sea Cultivators also nodded and enjoyed the attention received from the audience as they stood on the stage.
But that was not the highlight of the event.
There was a commotion in the hall when the large sects like the Ba Ji Sect entered.
Yan Shigao pointed at a man at the entrance and yelled, “Look! It’s Gao Baisheng from the Ba Ji Sect! He became a peak-stage Divine Sea Cultivator a long time ago and is claimed to be unstoppable.”
Gao Baisheng?
Chen Fan turned around.
That man was tall and muscular, of about forty years of age. The entire venue shook slightly when he walked; he was a man full of power. Wasn’t he the enemy from the Ba Ji Sect whom Chen Fan had defeated in the base of Cang Dragon back then?
“It’s really him!” Chen Fan exclaimed.
When Gao Baisheng arrived, the other cultivators also got up and greeted that invincible master. Although they were all at the Divine Sea realm, Gao Baisheng had defeated countless cultivators of the same level. He wasn’t someone normal Divine Sea Cultivators could compare to. Gao Baisheng only nodded and sat down.
Then.
People of the Tai Chi Sect, the Xin Yi Sect, Tantric Buddhism and Dragon Tiger Mountain arrived. Their leaders were at least at the peak stage of the Immortal State. Finally, the entire Qin Yang County was stirred when a Connate Cultivator of the Tai Chi Sect showed up.
“Swish!”
That man turned into a black and white ray of light and descended from the sky to land directly on the venue.
“It’s the Deputy Sect Master of the Tai Chi Sect, Chen Jiuyang. I can’t believe he’s here. We’re so lucky we came. This is much better than last year’s!” Yan Junze’s body shook in excitement.
Connate Earth Level Deities!
They had rarely been seen on Earth a decade before. Even after the world changed, Connate Cultivators were still super overlords who could suppress a sect, a region and a race. Nobody could compare to them if there weren’t any Golden Core Cultivators.
Chen Jiuyang was on the Heaven Roll back then, so how would people not be astonished by his appearance? Even Gao Baisheng got up and bowed.
“Hm!”
Chen Jiuyang was about to sit on the main seat… Then he suddenly felt something. He glanced around, but only saw people cheering. He shook his head and sat down.
Meanwhile.
Chen Fan had looked away.
Chen Jiuyang, another familiar name. The Internal Force and Transcendent State Masters in the past had entered the Divine Sea and Connate Level. Some had even gone through the Thunder Tribulation to become Golden Core Cultivators. However, where were the people Chen Fan cared about?
His parents, grandpa, Sister An, Xu Rongfei, Yukishiro Sa, A’Xiu, Yu Wenjin, Hua Yunfeng, Xie Yan… Were all of them taken away by Master Cangqin? If not, were they somewhere on Earth waiting for Chen Fan?
Chen Fan sighed and realized he couldn’t wait any longer. His search efforts thus far were like looking for a needle in a haystack, so why not just let them come to him themselves?
He looked up.
It was time to make a comeback. Once he became famous on Earth again, those of the North Qiong Sect scattered around the planet would know about him. And Qin Yang County was the first step for that.
Meanwhile—
Chu Minhui and Tang Yifei were standing outside the venue. “Still no sign of him?”
“No. We’ve already looked around his hometown, Si Shui, his schools and the bar he worked in. We’ve even searched all over Qin Yang County, but found nothing,” their subordinate said.
Yang Chao was very anxious. “Does it really work? What if he never came back? We’re just wasting our time.”
Chu Minhui remained silent. There was a hint of exhaustion and frustration on their faces.
Not only Yang Chao, Chu Minhui and the others also understood that the whole world would have known by then if Chen Fan was willing to show up. If he didn’t, he must have encountered some difficulties, like a decline in power or severe injuries. Then, they would never be able to find him no matter what they did. After all, Chen Fan was already close to becoming a Golden Core Cultivator back then and it was easy for him to hide from a couple of Divine Sea Cultivators.
“Just let us try for a bit longer…” Chu Minhui smiled wryly. Suddenly, he looked at the sky and said, “They’re here.”
Tang Yifei also looked up and became serious.
Yang Chao was startled. He saw a few beams of light falling from the sky with some terrifying energy. At that moment, not only people at the venue, even those around Qin Yang County felt the invisible pressure in their minds.
“It’s people from the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena,” Chu Minhui said with a pale face and fear in his eyes.
In the meantime, countless people were looking at the stage. Even Chen Jiuyang got up seriously and the Immortal State Warriors seemed to be a bit frightened.
The Taichu Temple, the Wuji Arena, the Sun Palace, the Xuankong Sect…
Those names represented the super sacred grounds on Earth. Even the President of a country would have to respect them. The acceptance of a cultivator into one of these sacred grounds would receive the attention of a country and even the entire planet. The Jiang family was of such a high standing because Jiang Churan was the disciple of the Taichu Temple’s Master.
“Oh God, it’s really them. People from the Taichu Temple and the Wuji Arena. I wouldn’t have to bow to Lu Yang anymore if I could be one of them.” Yan Junze was so thrilled his heart almost exploded.
The people in the venue, around Qin Yang County and in front of the television started to go crazy. Girls behind Chen Fan even screamed like some fangirls would.
Only Chen Fan narrowed his eyes!
The event had officially begun!
