Promoting the Dongtian to a world represented a qualitative leap for Lin Fan.
“Ding, the title of the Creator Lord.”
“Refining the world (3/1000).”
As for this title of Creator Lord, Lin Fan really had no idea of its use. Refining the world like this was truly quite boring.
In this newly formed world, there were already many living beings, all ordinary creatures, bizarre and grotesque, of unknown species.
However, the world needed a new name.
“Primordial.”
The beginning of everything.
The name wasn’t too bad. Lin Fan happily decided on this name for his new world.
Currently, Lin Fan’s power was at the initial stage of the Ancient Realm, but he could easily crush mid-stage opponents, and even high-stage ones could be suppressed by his strength.
As for Ancient Realm Paragons, it would be a bit more difficult. If he could encounter someone as foolish as the Ancestor of the Sword Race, he could easily overpower them all the way.
However, in Lin Fan’s view, such cases were quite rare. After all, there weren’t many who trained sword techniques to the point of losing their minds like the Ancestor of the Sword Race.
One month later.
Lin Fan was aimlessly wandering around, and along the way, he encountered several assassination attempts.
The Supreme Beings had already grown to deeply hate Lin Fan. Most of the Divine Treasures had been collected by him, making Lin Fan the top target for countless Supreme Beings.
As for where the Emperor of Water and Fire and the Demon God of Death had gone, Lin Fan wasn’t quite sure.
When the Divine Treasure appeared, neither the Emperor of Water and Fire nor the Demon God of Death had been present, which Lin Fan found rather strange.
Could there be something more important than a Divine Treasure in this world?
At this moment, something in the distant horizon caught Lin Fan’s attention.
Lightning flashed from all directions, as if someone was unleashing a mighty technique.
Within this, there were several presences—no ordinary ones—but in Lin Fan’s eyes, they were hardly worth mentioning.
“What do you want? I, the Holy Emperor Nanwu, have no enmity with you. Why are you hunting me?” A man was surrounded by five figures, unable to break through for the moment.
In these past few years, Nanwu’s cultivation had advanced to the initial stage of the Sovereign Realm, all thanks to the fusion of the myriad worlds. Without the fusion of the myriad worlds and the enhancement of the world’s will, progressing further would have been extremely difficult.
Moreover, his original strength was already formidable. Those scattered Eternal Thrones across the lands were easily seized by Nanwu.
The Five Heavens Thieves.
In recent years, these five notorious thieves had gained a fearsome reputation, their strength formidable. Nanwu now found them quite troublesome. Their combined forces nearly cost him his life.
Among them, Pursuing Heaven Thief was a woman, yet her entire body exuded a strong killing intent. Her dark eyes glared at Nanwu, “The Supreme Beings have issued a task: whoever slays a human shall receive a generous reward. You may have no grudge with us, but blame your own high value.”
Nanwu’s face turned extremely grim. This was simply outrageous.
After the fusion of the myriad worlds, he had secluded himself in cultivation. He never expected that upon emerging, he would be hunted by these five powerful beings simply because he was a human.
Moreover, these five assassins were his equals in strength, especially their combined techniques, which were particularly formidable. If not for a treasure he possessed, he would have already perished by their hands.
Back when the myriad worlds had not yet fused, when had there been rumors of such powerful beings? He didn’t know where these individuals had emerged from after the fusion.
Suddenly, countless powerful beings appeared, some nearly as strong as himself.
“Why bother talking? Just take his head and we can collect the reward,” Kill Heaven Thief roared ferociously. A scar ran from the top of his head down to his neck, as if someone had once split his head open with a single blade.
Nanwu warily eyed the five, his mind racing. He had to find a way to escape.
“Oh, isn’t this little Nan? So unfortunate, being hunted like this,” Lin Fan suddenly stepped out from the void, looking at the scene with apparent surprise.
The Five Heavens Thieves’ expressions simultaneously changed as they turned their gaze toward the void.
Nanwu was also startled, but upon glancing over, he exclaimed, “It’s you.”
Seeing that the person who arrived was Lin Fan, Nanwu immediately felt relieved. Good! Reinforcements had finally come. But when had this kid become so bold as to call him “little Nan”?
“Little Nan?”
Damn it, when had this kid become so audacious as to call him “little Nan”?
“Little Nan, what kind of attitude is that? I am not just ‘this kid.’ Please address me as the Human Emperor,” Lin Fan said discontentedly.
“Another human.”
The Five Heavens Thieves looked at Lin Fan, their faces darkening with sinister smiles. “Didn’t expect such good fortune—encountering two humans at once. Killing you both will surely bring a tremendous reward.”
“Who are you people?” Lin Fan asked.
“Kid, be careful. These guys are Sovereign-level experts: Pursuing Heaven Thief, Kill Heaven Thief, Sever Heaven Thief, Shake Heaven Thief, and Demon Heaven Thief.”
The Five Heavens Thieves straightened their backs proudly, clearly satisfied with their reputation. Especially the reaction of this new human pleased them.
Fear!
“Damn, did heaven have a grudge against you? One chases, one kills, one severs, one shakes, and one is a demon. What a terrible name. Sounds awful.”
“Reckless!” Pursuing Heaven Thief immediately grew furious. She hadn’t expected this human to be so brazen.
“Kid, let’s team up,” Nanwu didn’t know Lin Fan’s current strength, but he assumed it couldn’t be too weak.
If the two of them joined forces, there was a good chance they could break through.
“I refuse. I don’t like that title. If you call me Emperor, I’ll help. Otherwise, figure it out yourself,” Lin Fan shrugged.
“Damn it,” Nanwu hadn’t expected this kid to still care about titles at a time like this. For a moment, he was speechless.
“Kid, this isn’t the time to throw a tantrum,” Nanwu urged hastily.
“Little Nan, see you later,” Lin Fan turned to leave without even looking back.
“Hmph, do you think you can come and go as you please? Not so easily,” Pursuing Heaven Thief roared. A surge of energy slashed through the void.
To their shock, Lin Fan didn’t even dodge. He took the blow head-on and then said somewhat displeasedly, “Be careful. If I strike back, you’ll all die. Little Nan, have you decided yet? If not, I’ll leave. You can keep fighting them on your own.”
At this moment, Nanwu was deeply astonished. He knew Pursuing Heaven Thief’s strength. That previous strike was unstoppable—something even he would have had to evade.
Yet this kid had taken it barehanded, purely with his physical body. Simply monstrous.
“Human Emperor, let’s team up,” Nanwu had no words for Lin Fan and could only change his address.
“Ah, that sounds much better,” Lin Fan smiled.
“Alright, you take two. We can’t afford a prolonged battle. Let’s find a way to break through,” Nanwu roared, his hands glowing with radiant energy, clearly preparing for a final push.
“Tsk, these five thieves have pushed you this far? You’re pretty pitiful. Let me handle this.”
Lin Fan shook his head, took a step forward, and swung his palm.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
…
The Five Heavens Thieves didn’t even have time to react before their bodies exploded. One palm strike killed all five—effortless.
“This…”
Nanwu was stunned, as if he had seen a ghost…
