Zhang Fan's cultivation had long reached the peak of the Divine Sea realm, just one step away from breaking through and entering the Heaven Human realm.
However, Zhang Fan could clearly feel that taking this step was an extremely difficult process.
For Zhang Fan at this stage, cultivation resources were not a problem.
After all, besides the large amount of high-grade spiritual herbs he had planted and cultivated on the island in the lake, there was also a small spiritual vein in the Half Moon Cave Mansion below Kunlong Mountain.
As long as he was willing, with the resources Zhang Fan currently possessed, even a very ordinary Divine Sea realm cultivator could be forcefully piled up to the Heaven Human realm.
But Zhang Fan was not an ordinary Divine Sea realm cultivator...
Because of his rebirth, Zhang Fan's mental power was extremely strong, far surpassing cultivators of the same level. Although his cultivation was only at the peak of the Divine Sea realm, he had already condensed divine sense early on and elevated it to a level comparable to Golden Core Earth Immortals.
Powerful divine sense had given Zhang Fan much convenience in the early stages of cultivation, but now, it was somewhat hindering his breakthrough.
To enter the Heaven Human realm, one needed to fuse mental power with a piece of heaven and earth, condense divine sense, and form one's own divine sense domain.
This step was naturally easy for Zhang Fan to accomplish, but what made him helpless was that his divine sense was currently too powerful...
The divine cloud phenomenon that ordinary Divine Sea realm cultivators could summon when entering the Heaven Human realm was only within a radius of a few kilometers, like that of the Dan Ancestor of the Pill God Pavilion.
As for some more outstanding Divine Sea realm cultivators, the divine cloud phenomenon they could summon generally exceeded ten kilometers, but at most it would not exceed twenty, like the Long Eyebrow Sword Saint.
For someone like Zhang Fan, whose divine sense could cover a radius of a hundred kilometers before even entering the Divine realm, such a monstrous talent was rare even in the deepest parts of the Myriad Domains Starry Sky, in the central region of the Star River where cultivation holy lands were scattered.
With divine sense already covering a hundred kilometers before breaking through to the Heaven Human realm, one could imagine how much vast heaven and earth energy Zhang Fan would attract when he entered the Divine realm.
And precisely because of this, the excessively vast heaven and earth energy was something Zhang Fan's current body and strength could not bear. Zhang Fan did not dare to take this step rashly.
Therefore, Zhang Fan had recently focused his cultivation on strengthening his physical body.
Since he began cultivating the Myriad Prisons Suppressing Divine Body, Zhang Fan had never slackened. He took large amounts of Qi and Blood Pills daily, tempering himself day and night to enhance his physical strength.
But even so, he had only cultivated the Myriad Prisons Suppressing Divine Body to the second layer, and there was still a considerable distance to reach minor completion.
The Myriad Prisons Suppressing Divine Body was an extremely powerful divine body technique, divided into nine layers. Three layers constituted minor completion, six layers constituted great completion, and nine layers constituted perfection.
Once the divine body reached minor completion, one could use bare hands to shatter Golden Core, being an invincible existence below Golden Core Earth Immortals solely through physical strength.
With the divine body at great completion, one could fearlessly face even Nascent Soul Heavenly Immortals.
As for the divine body at perfection, one could easily suppress Void Refining True Immortals solely through physical strength. Only then could this body refining technique be called the Suppressing Divine Body.
Zhang Fan planned to wait until he completed the third layer of the Myriad Prisons Suppressing Divine Body and reached minor completion before attracting the power of heaven and earth and entering the Heaven Human realm.
...
Since he was not in a hurry, Zhang Fan did not fly directly to Yanjing by sword. Instead, he honestly bought a plane ticket and flew for over two hours before arriving in Yanjing.
Today was the first day of the new semester, and with students returning to school, the campus and its surroundings were extremely lively.
Although Zhang Fan had not spent much time at school last semester, he had caused quite a stir and had close relationships with several campus belles. Coupled with the title of Qin Luoshui's boyfriend, he had gained some fame among the freshmen.
Of course, among the male students, there was only envy and jealousy, as each of the ten campus belles at Yanjing University was a rare beauty, yet Zhang Fan was able to maintain close relationships with several of them. How could this not make them jealous?
As for the female students, they were only curious about Zhang Fan.
What kind of man could win the favor of so many campus belles simultaneously?
Those who had met Zhang Fan found him to be of average appearance, with nothing outstanding. Moreover, after not coming to school for several months, no one recognized him as he walked on campus.
It was important to note that after Zhang Fan became famous last semester, he would always be pointed at wherever he went.
However, this feeling was quite good. Uninterrupted, Zhang Fan walked alone on campus, feeling the vibrant campus atmosphere filled with youthful energy, which made him feel much more relaxed.
"I wonder how those guys have been doing lately," Zhang Fan thought of his roommates, feeling a sense of anticipation. After not seeing them for months, what changes had his roommates undergone?
With the direction in mind, Zhang Fan headed straight for the male dormitory.
Among Zhang Fan's three roommates, only Qi Wenxuan was relatively quiet. Geng Lesheng and Yi Ziping were quite lively.
Indeed, before even reaching the dormitory, Zhang Fan could hear the sounds of Geng Lesheng and Yi Ziping playing and joking.
When Zhang Fan pushed the door open, both of them looked towards the door simultaneously. Upon seeing the long-absent figure, they quieted down.
Then, a heaven-shattering howl erupted.
"Third brother, you're finally back!" Yi Ziping, with a bitter expression, rushed towards Zhang Fan as if seeking comfort.
Zhang Fan gave him a shove. Geng Lesheng, with a beaming smile, walked over, patted Zhang Fan's shoulder with a grin, and said, "Brother, I can finally thank you in person."
"Thank me for what?" Zhang Fan was puzzled. He hadn't done anything, had he?
"This beast actually managed to get Lin Ruyue!" Yi Ziping wailed, feeling that the world was unfair.
Zhang Fan came to a realization. He hadn't expected Geng Lesheng to actually have this ability. Although his help was a factor, the fact that he could persevere also indicated his excellent perseverance and character.
Earning Lin Ruyue's approval showed that he had indeed put in a lot of effort.
"Not bad, you both have the strength of complete Inner Qi. While you can't beat Lin Ruyue, you won't be killed by her with a single slap," Zhang Fan also patted Geng Lesheng's shoulder and said with a smile.
Geng Lesheng, who had been beaming with pride, suddenly froze at Zhang Fan's words.
With Zhang Fan's help, Lin Ruyue had now cultivated true qi. Geng Lesheng was indeed no match for her.
After speaking, Zhang Fan understood why Yi Ziping had put on such a bitter face. Of the four people in their dormitory, Yi Ziping had always been the one who appeared the most desperate, yet he was still single. It was difficult for him.
"Don't you still have the fourth brother to keep you company?" Zhang Fan consoled him.
"Don't mention the fourth brother." Yi Ziping became even more dejected, his miserable expression making it seem as if he was about to cry.
He had thought that the taciturn fourth brother was also single, but just this morning, on the first day of school, shortly after Qi Wenxuan arrived at the dormitory, a very attractive girl came looking for him. They left for dinner hand in hand.
Zhang Fan learned that the fourth brother had also found a partner and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, gently patting Yi Ziping's shoulder in consolation.
