"Something happened. You know about the True Monarch Evil Buddha's dojo, right?" Zhang Fan asked, looking at everyone.
"Of course, we know. That's a True Monarch's dojo. Even cultivators in the Soul Transformation stage can't get close. The most discussed topic in the war base recently is this True Monarch's dojo. Everyone says if anyone can obtain the inheritance of True Monarch Evil Buddha, they might be able to step into the Dao Integration Immortal King realm," replied the Blood Demon Flood Dragon.
"A group of Void Return stage cultivators from the Nine Cliffs Star Domain and the Purple Heaven Star Domain gathered and entered the dojo, and I was among them. I obtained the True Monarch Evil Buddha's dao pháp inheritance. Those cultivators from the Nine Cliffs Star Domain and the Purple Heaven Star Domain attacked me, and I killed more than half of them," Zhang Fan said calmly.
Everyone was silent for a while. The Blood Demon Flood Dragon then asked, "That... Master, how many is 'more than half'?"
"Around seventy to eighty, including three cultivators in the Dao Origin stage."
Having followed Zhang Fan for a long time, they had some understanding of the Void Return stage. Dao Origin stage cultivators stood at the pinnacle of the Void Return stage. Even so, Zhang Fan still killed three of them?
They remembered that the Lord of the Great Luo World they had entered before was only at the Dao Origin stage.
Of course, that Lord of the Great Luo World cultivated the rare Path of Darkness and had reached the peak of the Dao Origin stage, so his strength was not comparable to ordinary Dao Origin stage cultivators.
"That's too exciting! Every Void Return stage powerhouse is a overlord in their own right. Now that Master has killed nearly a hundred of them, those two star domains must be going crazy," the Blood Demon Flood Dragon exclaimed excitedly.
Even though they were currently on the side of the Purple Heaven Star Domain, they didn't feel any sense of belonging to it.
"Indeed. That's why I must take you away. Such a major event has occurred, and it will likely affect you as well," Zhang Fan said.
"Where do we go next?" Liu Mu asked.
"The universe is vast, and we can go anywhere."
With Zhang Fan's current strength, he could freely roam the starry sky. Even the Central Star Domain, which was extremely far away, was not a problem for him.
Zhang Fan collected everyone into his immortal mansion. Then, with a single step, he vanished from his original spot and left the starry sky battlefield.
...
The events that occurred at True Monarch Evil Buddha's dojo this time sent shockwaves through both star domains. After all, dozens of Void Return stage powerhouses had perished. Especially for many families, where there was only one Void Return stage ancestor, their entire family's strength and status would plummet rapidly after his demise.
Zi Shan Ling Yue also received the news. At first, she couldn't believe it. She personally went to the starry sky battlefield to seek an audience with Immortal King Zhen Cang. After obtaining the answer from Immortal King Zhen Cang, she was stunned.
"Facing the inheritance of True Monarch Evil Buddha, even Dao Origin stage powerhouses would find it difficult to remain calm. It's not difficult to understand why Zi Shan Kun Ming and his third uncle attacked Zhang Fan," Zi Shan Ling Yue sighed softly and said.
Zi Shan Ling Yue's feelings were complex. Although Zhang Fan had killed two cultivators in the Realm of Creation from her faction, deep down, she felt it was their own doing.
If Zi Shan Kun Ming hadn't provoked Zhang Fan and had accepted her suggestion to team up with him, perhaps this situation wouldn't have occurred.
"This matter has already alerted the Domain Lord, and he has even arranged for a Myriad Manifestations stage expert to investigate Zhang Fan's whereabouts. However, the starry sky is vast, and it is extremely difficult to find someone who intentionally hides. Zhang Fan also took all his followers with him, making it impossible to deduce his tracks through the Way of Deduction."
Zi Shan Ling Yue's heart trembled. She hadn't expected that even the Domain Lord was paying attention to this matter, and had even arranged for a Myriad Manifestations stage expert to investigate Zhang Fan's whereabouts.
The Dao Integration stage, like the Void Return stage, was divided into three major realms: the Heavenly Evolution stage, the Myriad Manifestations stage, and the Chaos stage.
Immortal Kings like Liu Li Immortal King and Zhen Cang Immortal King, who were stationed at the starry sky battlefield, were Heavenly Evolution stage powerhouses. They had already evolved their internal small worlds into internal universes. Compared to them, Dao Origin stage cultivators were like clouds and mud.
As for Myriad Manifestations stage powerhouses, their internal universes had begun to evolve all things. They were just one step away. As long as they cultivated the power of cosmic chaos, they could be called true miniature universes. With every movement, they possessed the power of a universe. Stars were like marbles in front of them, easily grasped.
Zhang Fan could escape from the hands of Heavenly Evolution stage Liu Li Immortal King, but facing a Myriad Manifestations stage expert, he would probably have no power to resist.
...
Zhang Fan naturally knew how much of a stir this matter would cause in the two star domains, but he didn't care at all. His figure flickered through the starry sky, moving several times in a single breath, traversing dozens of light-years. While on the road, he separated a wisp of his consciousness and descended into his internal world.
Once the internal world was constructed, it began to evolve naturally. The Great Dao of Time and the Great Dao of Space had built this world spanning ten light-years. Zhang Fan himself was somewhat amazed.
After all, even in his previous life, the small world he first created was only one light-year in radius. And the Great Luo World he had entered was less than a light-year in radius.
A small world of ten light-years meant that the world power he possessed was a hundred times stronger than cultivators of the same realm. This was also the reason why Zhang Fan, with his Realm of Creation strength, could kill Dao Origin stage powerhouses.
The Great Dao of Yin and Yang transformed into the Lunar Star and Solar Star, giving this world the change between day and night. The Great Dao of the Five Elements naturally evolved mountains, rivers, vegetation, gold, and stone within the world, giving this internal world the foundation for life to survive.
In the center of this small world, there was a blood-colored giant sword that pierced through heaven and earth. Lightning flashed on the giant sword. This was Zhang Fan's Lightning Sword Dao, and it was also the heart of this world. The remnant soul of True Monarch Evil Buddha was within the blood-colored giant sword, in a deep sleep, constantly nourished by the power of this world, gradually growing stronger.
"At this rate, it will probably only take a few decades for the internal small world to be fully evolved. At that time, I can condense Dao Origin," Zhang Fan thought to himself.
The vast cosmic space was divided into four great star regions according to direction: the Eastern Star Region, the Southern Star Region, the Western Star Region, and the Northern Star Region.
The star region where Zhang Fan and his group were located belonged to the Eastern Star Region. The races in the Eastern Star Region were mainly human, followed by demons, and also a large number of weak races and special life forms.
In each star region, there was a Central Star Domain. That was the center of the entire star region, the place where the cosmic脉络 converged, and the number of powerhouses gathered there was countless. This was also Zhang Fan's ultimate destination.
However, he did not go directly to the Central Star Domain. Before reaching there, Zhang Fan planned to return to the Wu Shan Star Domain first. He had obtained too many cultivation resources and his strength had greatly improved during this excursion. He could now do some things he wanted to do before but couldn't.
There were nearly thirty Soul Transformation stage cultivators suppressed by Zhang Fan in the Myriad Beasts Cauldron, and more than eighty Void Return stage cultivators. Among them, three had even reached the Dao Origin stage. These were all cultivation treasures comparable to divine medicines, enough to significantly boost the cultivation of those around him.
