Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator (Web Novel)

Chapter 1124: Initial-Success Deity Body

“It’s finally turned into Deity Qi.” Chen Fan was thrilled. He looked into the Origin Well and saw that the pool of dense black Fiend Qi had already disappeared. The entire Origin Well was empty. Only a plume of light gold Deity Qi was left floating in the middle of the well.

Chen Fan avidly looked at that plume of Deity Qi.

The shape of the Deity Qi changed constantly, producing beams of golden light. However, the inside of that single plume of Deity Qi was colorful; Chen Fan appeared to see a world there. The weather changed, the sun rose, the moon set and creatures were multiplying. It gathered and formed a light sphere in the air. All the Spirit Qi around it was pushed away, and the Essence Qi in the entire hall became like still water, as if the light sphere was a superior element.

Chen Fan watched it for a while, then took a deep breath with joy in his face.

“It truly is Deity Qi from Heaven. Even if it’s a bit impure, it’s incredible to be able to see this in a human world of this universe. Master and the others really put in great efforts to set this up.”

That was the Deity Qi from Heaven.

It was the strongest energy that only Tribulation Mysterious Deities had or could only be found in the remaining secret lands across the universe. It was much more powerful than all the Spirit Qi, Essence Qi and Fiend Qi, and was the foundation of Heaven. Legends in the human world said that people could live ten thousand years by just taking a breath of it. Chen Fan had found many energies comparable to the Deity Qi of Heaven in his previous life, or even stronger ones.

There was Hongmeng Purple Qi, Taixu Xuanhuang Power, Connate Chaotic Qi, and so on.

But in this life, he was just a low-level cultivator. Being able to have contact with Deity Qi from Heaven at the Golden Core Level was the biggest opportunity Chen Fan had ever encountered since his rebirth.

“One Origin Well can make a plume of Deity Qi in a month. Then, if the ninety-nine Origin Wells work together, they’ll be able to produce at least a hundred plumes of Deity Qi, or even more. After all, the power of arrays can be accumulated. The more Origin Wells, the more efficient,” Chen Fan guessed according to his current power.

That plume of Deity Qi was only enough for Chen Fan to cultivate fully for a week, at most.

After a week passed, he would have finished refining the Deity Qi. He would then start to feel hungry and could only wait patiently. That problem would be solved if he had control of five Origin Divine Palaces; the more palaces he controlled, the faster his cultivation would be, and the earlier he could enter the Nascent Soul and Soul Formation levels.

“Let’s forget about it. I’m already lucky to have one Origin Well. That’s the Deity Qi from Heaven. Other cultivators, even Soul Formation Grand cultivators could only hear about it their entire lives, let alone Nascent Soul cultivators. They wouldn’t even have a chance to see it once.” Chen Fan shook his head and chuckled.

In his previous life, Master Cangqin had only allowed him to enter the core cultivation sacred grounds of the True Martial Celestial Sect when he was cultivating to become a Dao Reunion Perfected Immortal. There was an area inside that was connected to the Deity Realm; it was full of Deity Qi, as if it were a corner of the Deity Realm. It was the most precious and most important secret land of the True Martial Celestial Sect, which had been developed by the Ancestral Master of the sect when he ascended. Only Ancestral Patriarchs and Sect Masters would be able to enter.

“Why is Deity Qi so valuable? Because many Divine Powers and cultivation arts in the world were passed down from the Deity Realm. It’s impossible to cultivate those cultivation arts to the highest level by just taking in Spirit Qi and other energies. People can only cultivate a simplified and incomplete version like the martial artists on Earth back then. So, they’re certainly much weaker compared to the Immortal Cultivators of the same level.”

Chen Fan reached out and held the light sphere as if he were caressing a child; it softly released a gentle Deity Light.

In fact, not only all kinds of Divine Powers and cultivation arts, even the cultivation levels were like that.

In the Central Galaxy, Golden Cores weren’t categorized into nine grades. There were only three levels, from the seventh grade to the ninth grade. As for those below the seventh grade, almost none existed in the Central Galaxy. The Spirit Qi found there was a hundred times more abundant than on Planet Tianhuang; all the cultivation arts, medicines, arrays, cultivation environments and even the teachers were much better. Even a normal cultivator on a planet near the border would be able to form a seventh-grade Golden Core.

The large sacred grounds and the True Martial Celestial Sect even forbade candidates without a divine-grade Golden Core to enter!

The rare Divine Princes in the Little South Heavenly Realm and the Abandoned Planet Region were merely the most ordinary cultivators in the Celestial Sects. They would be unable to become core disciples if they couldn’t form a sacred-grade Golden Core.

Chen Fan had been expelled from the True Martial Celestial Sect in his previous life because he had only formed a seventh-grade Golden Core.

After that, Chen Fan improved tremendously. His cultivation speed became faster and his power surpassed that of his peers. He had even defeated the elites of the True Martial Celestial Sect and torn the Cang Min Realm apart, to later stand in front of Master Cangqin and become his seventh disciple. However, Chen Fan had already established his foundation back then. Even if he cultivated and formed a sacred-grade Golden Core again, it would have a defect.

“Even normal labor disciples would have a divine-grade Golden Core. That’s why the nine Celestial Sects are able to stand on top of the universe, overlooking the planet regions. Apart from the top cultivators, this is another reason why the other planet regions can’t compare to the Central Galaxy.” Chen Fan shook his head and heaved a sigh. The difference between the Central Galaxy and the Little South Heavenly Realm was like that between the United States and the small countries in Africa.

Even though they were all countries, one of them was a modern civilization and the others were primitive communities.

However, Chen Fan knew some more of their secret news.

“I once heard that people were born with a divine-grade Golden Core and Divine Powers in the ancient world. Golden Core Cultivators back then knew one or several Connate Divine Powers and were naturally powerful, way better than the Nascent Soul Cultivators nowadays. Those Chaotic Fiend Gods and the Deities in the Deity Realm were even stronger. Their Golden Cores didn’t even have the divine grade or sacred grade. They were born with a deity-grade Golden Core.”

Chen Fan’s eyes glittered. That was a rare secret; everyone would be stunned if this were to be spread to the rest of the universe. Being born with a deity-grade Golden Core? There hadn’t been a single cultivator like this across the entire universe in the past thousands of years. Even if someone formed a deity-grade Golden Core, he wouldn’t tell a soul.

“Not only Golden Core Cultivators; Nascent Soul and Soul Formation Cultivators were also the same. They all had a Deity Infant and a Deity Soul, standing on the highest point of the world. A Golden Core Cultivator in the Deity Realm can compare to a Nascent Soul Cultivator in the human world, while a Nascent Soul Cultivator in the Deity Realm can even fight against a Soul Formation Cultivator in the human world. This is why the Deity Realm is vastly superior, right on top of the universe while overlooking the world. Even if there are more elites and more astonishing cultivators, they only count as rare pearls. There’s no way they can confront the Deity Realm.”

There were things Chen Fan was only able to understand when he reached the level he used to have in his previous life.

He went past the Gate of Heaven and attacked the Deity Realm several times. Not a lot of people in the world could really understand why he did that, but Chen Fan would set this matter aside for the moment. He simply held the golden light sphere that was gently letting out colorful light rays in his hand.

The Deities in the Deity Realm and the Fiend Gods in the chaos zone were too powerful; they already had a deity-grade Gold Core since the moment they started cultivating, since they were born surrounded by Deity Qi and Connate Chaotic Qi. Their foundation was much stronger than that of the normal races in the human world who took in Spirit Qi and Essence Qi. Carnivores that ate meat were usually much stronger than herbivores that ate plants.

Many things had already been set since the beginning.

Chen Fan wouldn’t have been able to form a deity-grade Golden Core in this life because his foundation wasn’t right at first. A deity-grade Golden Core required a Deity Qi Foundation. If he didn’t go to the nine Celestial Sects or the forbidden lands in the universe, he would never be able to find any Deity Qi. That plume of Deity Qi was worth more than a hundred million Spirit Stones and could easily be sold at the price of a planet, a superior-grade cultivation planet in the center of the universe.

“I had the chance to complete the nine transformations of the Deity Wheel and cultivate the hardest Dharma Power to the highest level, but my Divine Soul and body are still missing something. Even if I can’t form a Deity Body and a Deity Soul right now, I can still strengthen my foundation and try to push these cultivation arts to the Deity Realm level,” Chen Fan thought as he slowly used his Azure Thearch Longevity Body to absorb the colorful light sphere in his hand.

The Azure Thearch Longevity Body was a top Divine Body Art. Chen Fan had cultivated it to the Great Perfection Level and was one step away from forming a perfect Divine Body, one that was comparable to that of a Soul Formation Cultivator. Right then, Chen Fan’s body was as powerful as that of a peak-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

That level was already the limit of the Azure Thearch Longevity Body.

Chen Fan’s body had only reached the peak after he strengthened it with the Twelve Sky Art Paintings, along with cultivating the Azure Thearch Longevity Body and taking countless Quasi-Divine Medicines and Heavenly Medicines.

But then.

As the plume of Deity Qi was gradually infused and absorbed by Chen Fan, his body suddenly became crystal clear and started releasing bright light, like an exquisite and dazzling diamond statue. All his bones, meridians, veins and organs were extremely shiny; they produced beams of golden light.

The Azure Thearch Longevity Body that was spinning normally also seemed to have some wonderful changes, reaching an unpredictable level. In the meantime, if someone looked at the azure light sphere representing the Azure Thearch Longevity Body in Chen Fan’s mind, he would find that the number of talismans that formed it immediately increased several times and it looked much more complex than it used to be. Every azure talisman was covered in golden glitters, as if this were its real appearance.

In fact, the Azure Thearch Longevity Body right then had become the real thing.

When the Azure Thearch created this cultivation art, he had used the Deity Qi from Heaven and the chaotic power in the sky. This art used to be a real Chaotic Art; still, since there was less Deity Qi in the universe, his descendants could only take out a part and practice it like a normal cultivation art.

“Boom!”

When Chen Fan breathed in the Deity Qi and cultivated—

The blood in his body ran like mercury, making splashing sounds like the Yangtze River, shaking the entire temple. The sound was even spread outside the temple to dozens of miles away like claps of thunder. Countless fiends that passed by were terrified. Golden light was shot out from Chen Fan’s body. He was surrounded by an aura, and many Dharma Laws appeared in the air. The Power of Order surged out, as if Chen Fan would have been brought up by Dharma Laws of the world. The Divine Prince of Apollo Palace was completely frightened.

“What is going on? He’s just a Golden Core Cultivator. Why is his body even more powerful than that of a Nascent Soul Cultivator like me? It’s even closer to the Grand Dao of the universe, and there are many Dharma Laws hidden inside. That’s impossible. When I went through the Tribulation and formed the Dharma Law Body, it wasn’t as perfect as his. His body is almost comparable to the Divine Body of a Soul Formation Grand Cultivator.”

The Divine Prince didn’t have a clue.

In fact.

Chen Fan’s body was undergoing a great transition right then.

His body directly jumped from the Sacred to the Deity level.

Chen Fan was about to form a Deity Body at the Golden Core Level. If this news were to spread, the entire universe would be astonished. There weren’t many people who could form a Sacred Body, and only young core Overlords of the nine Celestial Sects had a Deity Body, apart from those legendary Deities.

“Crack, crack!”

While cultivating—

There were even some azure Dharma Laws exploding around Chen Fan, as if he were going through the Nascent Soul Tribulation. The original peak was only reached partly. His body was drenched in the power of Dharma Laws. Only the Flower of Dharma Law was real among the so-called three Flowers of the End. The other two had either been strengthened by the Nine Orifices Divine Infant or empowered by the Twelve Sky Art Paintings. They were both illusory, although rarely seen in the world as it was.

One day, two days, three days…

Chen Fan kept cultivating and rested from time to time. He took out a plume of Deity Qi every month and a year passed just like that.

Until one day, a green flower appeared on Chen Fan’s head.

It was as bright as glass; it seemed tangible, like a green lotus flower from the Deity Realm. Once it appeared, flowers fell from the sky and golden lotus flowers grew on the ground. The sound of Dharma Laws was heard, and five images emerged, representing the Red Sparrow, the Kun Peng, the Xuan Wu and two others.

This Flower of the End represented that Chen Fan’s body had truly become a Deity Body and the attainment of the Golden Core level’s apex! He was only a step away from completing the Grand Golden Core Level, like those found in the Deity Realm.

“My body didn’t advance much in reality, even though I forcefully pushed it from the level of Divine Body to Deity Body. My Divine Body was at the Great Perfection level. After being strengthened by the Twelve Sky Art Paintings, it was able to compare to a Sacred Body. That is why I was halfway to the peak. Once I absorbed Deity Qi, my body’s foundation changed from a Sacred Body to a Deity Body. It’s only a level higher,” Chen Fan thought.

He gently stretched his arms. He was surrounded by the golden Deity Light and was letting out beams of bright light like a Deity from Heaven. He felt that the blood in his body was making sounds like raging waves. The entire Origin Divine Palace also shook, following his movement. Chen Fan was then confident that he would be able to crush all the Nascent Soul Cultivators below the Soul Formation Level while only using the power of his body. As long as the Divine Princes and Divine Generals of the Little South Heavenly Realm weren’t at the Soul Formation Level, they would be helpless against his punch, no matter how powerful they were.

“This is the power of a Deity Body! I’ve already cultivated the Golden Core Deity Body to the maximum level. It’s equivalent to the initial success level even when compared with the Deity Body Arts of the Celestial Sects.” Chen Fan was thrilled.

After his rebirth, he had never thought he would be able to form an initial-success Deity Body so soon. His original thought was that it would be more efficient if he built his foundation again after reaching the peak.

“Boom!”

Countless rays of light were shot when Chen Fan opened and closed his eyes. Many golden lotus flowers appeared and disappeared within ten feet in the air. He didn’t seem to match the world, as if he were a God that was visiting the mortal world. A Deity Body was the most difficult one to cultivate among all the cultivation arts; those manifestations were the most obvious effects once it was completed.

That was because the biggest external difference between Deities and ordinary people was their bodies.

They were enveloped in Deity Qi and every move they made created all kinds of images, looking completely different from ordinary people. In the meantime, twelve images followed Chen Fan whenever he moved. Nobody would question him if he said he was a Deity.

“Fine, I should use the power of this Origin Divine Palace to refine my Divine Soul as well. I have to completely push my energy to the Golden Core Level found in the Deity Realm, the peak of the Golden Core Level.”

Chen Fan closed his eyes and continued to breathe in the Deity Qi to cultivate.

Meanwhile.

The Earth was also stirred.

Astonishing news came from the rest of the universe, saying that the cultivators of other planets were on their way. This time, they would truly make an appearance. Earth instantly became the center of the entire Abandoned Planet Region and the Little South Heavenly Realm!
