The reason Xu Fan frowned was not just due to the uncertainty of the Upper Realm, but more importantly, he was worried about the tasks ahead.
With only three years left until the epoch arrival, no matter how much deception Xu Fan employed, it was rely a smokescreen. When the ti is up, those immortals from the Upper Realm would inevitably descend in grand fashion. In the face of such imnse benefit from the epoch, not even one Li Long, let alone ten, could stop the four Immortal Emperors!
What can Xu Fan achieve in three years?
Previously, Xu Fan had been striving to secure these three years for himself, almost without any thorough planning. Now, barely having succeeded, he felt slightly lost.
In three years, could he evolve from a lowly ant to reach the level of an Immortal Venerable or Immortal Emperor?
It wasn't even worth considering—it was simply impossible!
Forget Immortal Venerable or Immortal Emperor; even reaching Immortal Monarch requires hundreds or even thousands of years. Across the vast universe, innurable planets, and countless talents, how many truly break through to beco Immortal Monarchs?
Moreover, even if Xu Fan broke through to Immortal Monarch or even Immortal Venerable, once the three years are up, he would still have little chance of survival against the four Immortal Emperors.
Or... escape?
Not to ntion that running away doesn't suit Xu Fan's style, but even if he fled from Earth, where could he possibly go?
Especially when the four Immortal Emperors discover that the so-called Li Long was just a façade Xu Fan devised, deceiving the entire Upper Realm—driven by their imnse fury, they would likely find him even if he hid at the ends of the earth.
So, only one path remains: to await the epoch arrival!
The epoch arrival is the reason the four Immortal Emperors have their eyes on Earth. It is Xu Fan's disaster, yet it is also Xu Fan's opportunity.
The Divine Demon Battlefield is fraught with danger, yet it also harbors countless opportunities—divine artifacts, elixirs, cultivation techniques... The relics of gods and demons can undoubtedly forge a formidable power in the shortest ti possible.
Only by obtaining imnse fortune within the Divine Demon Battlefield could Xu Fan hope to stand against the four Immortal Emperors without relying on background.
The Divine Demon Passage can only accommodate strong individuals at the Kai Yang Realm level, which ans, in three years, Xu Fan can at most break through to the Peak of the Kai Yang Realm!
For ordinary cultivators, going from the Middle Stage of the Mysterious Light Realm to the Peak of the Kai Yang Realm in three years might seem far-fetched, but for Xu Fan, as long as resources are abundant, it's all manageable.
Now, Xu Fan has essentially beco the overlord of the Earth Cultivation World, the strongest in the mortal world! The entire resources of the Earth Cultivation World will be in Xu Fan's hands, so where would there be a lack of resources?
Xu Fan isn't worried about not reaching the Peak of the Kai Yang Realm in three years; rather, he's concerned about not exceeding it!
Once three years are up, without surpassing the Kai Yang Realm Peak, before any mystery is unraveled, Xu Fan might die, but once he crosses that line, he is certainly dood, and even the last thread of hope would vanish.
The problem is, three years later, when the Immortal Emperors descend, can the illusory background still hold up? Once exposed, Xu Fan, only at the Peak of the Kai Yang Realm, might not even have the chance to flee.
"It seems it's ti to embark on a great cultivation plan..."
One Peak Kai Yang Realm cultivator is insufficient, so training several more, even a group of Peak Kai Yang Realm cultivators, is necessary. On one hand, this could be seen as preparation for entering the Divine Demon Battlefield, and on the other hand, it can further lull the adversaries.
Why can a group of Peak Kai Yang Realm cultivators be trained in three years? It's all thanks to Senior Li Long. The Upper Realm will surely be driven to cautious desperation.
Indeed, it's quite remarkable. Xu Fan was just a re Earth cultivator, and though he progressed rapidly and faced few opponents, Xu Fan never imagined that one day he would stand against the entire Upper Realm.
On the Taoist Immortal Mountain, a single step forward frightened off Immortal Venerables and simultaneously set Xu Fan on a road of no return.
Nonetheless, Xu Fan never regretted taking that step, even if he had not stood up and stopped Chu Le'er and the three Immortal Venerables from perishing together. When the epoch arrival cos and the four Immortal Emperors descend, given Xu Fan's character, he would still ultimately oppose the four Immortal Emperors.
Submit to the four Immortal Emperors? Or join a certain force? Such thoughts never crossed Xu Fan's mind.
On Earth, Xu Fan had long developed a carefree and unruly personality. Submitting to others was simply out of the question.
"Speaking of which, it's also ti to have a look around the Ice Palace."
Upon first entering the Ice Palace, Xu Fan had made a pact with Li Long, agreeing to return to the Ice Palace to attempt to break Li Long's confinent once he beca the strongest in the mortal world.
Back then, Li Long did not agree, but Xu Fan kept the promise in his heart.
Now, having defeated Luo Bing, a mighty Immortal Monarch level contender, Xu Fan is unquestionably the strongest in the mortal world! It's ti to return to the Ice Palace for a look.
Moreover, although the current situation is fraught with peril, should Li Long awaken, all problems would cease to be problems. Even if Li Long doesn't recover his power, at least there would be soone to shoulder much of the pressure for Xu Fan.
However, Xu Fan was not in a rush to move. Before any definite news ca from the Upper Realm, Xu Fan couldn't expose Li Long's whereabouts.
...
In the Upper Realm, as the epoch arrival approaches, the ongoing battles have gradually subsided.
The epoch arrival is a monuntal opportunity leading directly to the Divine Demon Battlefield, filled with the relics of gods and demons—divine artifacts, elixirs, cultivation techniques. For the immortals of the Upper Realm, these hold undeniable allure.
Of course, the capacity of the Divine Demon Passage is limited; ordinary immortals are not qualified to share the boon, only Immortal Venerable level contenders have the right to intervene. Over the millennia, Immortal Venerables have ticulously prepared, gathering countless talents from myriad worlds, forcibly suppressing realms to the Peak of the Kai Yang Realm, yet possessing true powers comparable to immortals or even Immortal Monarchs!
Especially with the combined techniques honed over centuries, dozens of geniuses, once allied in formation, could even make an Immortal Monarch lant!
The Divine Demon Battlefield harbors imnse opportunity. If luck prevails, much like the Heavenly Witch Sect centuries ago, obtaining a divine artifact could lead to the ergence of a fifth Immortal Emperor in the Upper Realm!
Under such trendous temptation, even though the epoch arrival is still three years away, everyone is already fixated on that azure star of the lower realm, sharpening their weapons and readying for battle. If not for the knowledge of Li Long's presence on Earth, they might have long since lunged for it.
Recently, with the return of an Immortal Monarch—or more accurately, with the arrival of an uninvited monk—the entire Upper Realm was stirred.
