God Cultivation

Just One Blow

a week already Qin Fan was floating in the air nonstop, by late afternoon, Qin Fan was resting on a small hill to replenish his depleted Qi, which he had lost, then Qin Fan sat on a boulder and took a lotus stance to absorb the natural energy.

in the morning Qin Fan continued on, day after day he floated above the air, and a week had passed, along the way, Qin Fan did not rest in the city nor the village he passed by, either, qin Fan wants to get to the mysterious island.

three days later towards evening, Qin Fan reached a town, then he landed not far from the city, then Qin Fan walked towards the gate on foot, a while later Qin Fan arrived at the city gate.

"Wind City"

that was the name of the city that Qin Fan had stopped in, after Qin Fan's turn in check, as usual, Qin Fan took out the badge of the golden eagle sect and paid 10 gold coins then entered the city.

after entering the city, Qin Fan looked for an inn, 200 meters later, Qin Fan saw an inn then he entered the inn.

"welcome to our inn young master, does the young master want to stay over?" said waiter.

"really, miss, is there still an empty room?" qin Fan asked.

"there is a young master, but only the young master's VIP room remains, and his overnight fee is 25 gold coins" the maid said.

"alright, I will take the room for 10 days" Qin Fan replied, then Qin Fan took out a bag of gold coins totaling 300 gold coins and gave it to the servant.

then the maid said that the gold coins Qin Fan gave were too many, but as usual, Qin Fan said if the rest were for the servant, the, after that the waiter brought Qin Fan in his room and let Qin Fan in while giving him his keys.

Inside the room, Qin Fan opened all his clothes and then he cleaned himself, after cleaning himself and wearing new clothes, Qin Fan opened the soul world and went inside, but before entering, before entering, Qin Fan told the waiter not to bother him, because he wanted to rest.

Whushes....

Qin Fan appeared in front of his cultivation room, then Qin Fan entered into his cultivation room and took out Yao's 2 7-star semi-immortal soul crystals that he had obtained from the sword world to absorb them.

because Qin Fan thought that on the mysterious island, the ancient dragon eating place had very strong guards, so he wanted to increase his strength so as not to have too much trouble if he was on the mysterious island.

then Qin Fan sat down taking a lotus stance and started absorbing those two soul crystals, slowly but surely, the two soul crystals were absorbed by Qin Fan.

two weeks had passed, but Qin Fan still had no sign Qin Fan would break through to the next star, day after day continued to pass, and Qin Fan continued to absorb those two soul crystals.

The Zhou imperial palace.

emperor Zhou Tian, the Imperial officials and the Patriarchs of the great sects were discussing something very important, namely the movement of the Ling Empire's army that was getting closer to their border region.

because the current Ling Empire wanted to attack the Zhou Empire, so the Zhou Tian emperor, ministers, generals and Patriarchs of the great sects met.

"your Majesty, the current Ling Empire army is already moving to the border, I think we should also move the troops to the border as well" said commander Tian Fei.

"really, your Majesty, if we move the troops too late, fearing that we are in a difficult position, if we move the troops early, if we move, we can put them in a strategic place and set a trap there" said defense minister or minister Zhou Qian, he was a cousin of the emperor Zhou Tian.

it looked as if emperor Zhou Tian nodded in understanding, then the emperor asked the Patriarch of the existing sect.

""what do you think of this?" ask the emperor Zhou Tian.

after a long moment of silence, Wang Liong raised a voice.

"your Majesty, I agree with the commander of Tian Fei and the minister of Zhou Qian, because if we also move the troops from now on and put them in a strategic place, then set a trap there, then, it will reduce casualties from our side" said Wang Liong expressed his opinion.

for a moment the emperor Zhou Tian nodded, then he asked the other patriarchs, "what about you guys?" ask the emperor Zhou Tian.

"servant agrees noble" Luo Feng replied.

"servants also agree with your majesty" one by one the Patriarchs of the large and medium sects agreed with the plan of commander Tian Fei and minister Zhou Qian.

then the emperor Zhou Tian gave orders to the commander of Zhou Tian to move troops to the southern border to be placed in a strategic place and set a trap.

"commander Tian Fei, immediately move the troops to the southern border and place them in a strategic place and set a trap there, make sure they do well" the emperor Zhou Tian ordered.

"and as for the Patriarchs, I hope that you will also send your disciples to help the Imperial soldiers in the battle later, because as we all know, the Ling Empire's army is superior in number and strength" emperor Zhou Tian's orders to the patriarchs of the sect.

"good noble" they answered in unison.

then they all disbanded and returned to their respective sects.

luo Feng and Wang Liong's current cultivation levels increased tremendously, whereupon their beginnings were at the peak stage god emperor, in just 8 months they were already at the 2-star semi-eternal, all of which were not separated from the pills and fruits of the immortal fruits Qin Fan gave before Qin Fan returned to the lower lands.

as for the disciple of the golden eagle sect, the outer disciple whose beginning was at the swordsman king, was now already at the earth god, the inner disciple of his early earth god, now in the sky god, the core disciple whose beginning was in the sky god, was now in the heaven god, and the elite disciple whose beginning was in the heaven god, was now in the heaven god, it was now in the god king, and there were some among them who were already in the early stage god emperors.

while the sect elders were already at the peak stage god emperors all, it was truly a terrifying strength when compared to the strength of his other great sect masters, he said, and it was because of this that made their sect the strongest sect in the Zhou empire.

luo Xia's cultivation level had also increased drastically within these 8 months, where his initials were only at 3-star god swordsmen, though, now it has been in the 7-star god swordsman in just 8 months.

among the sect disciples, Luo Xia had no talent at all, he was not like the golden eagle sect disciple, the talent Luo Xia had was very low, so his cultivation was very slow.

3 days later, Luo Feng had already arrived at the golden eagle sect, then he greeted his elders, then they all went to the meeting hall, after sitting down, Luo Feng opened the meeting.

"his highness the emperor invited me and all the Patriarchs of the large and medium sects to the palace due to the Empire's situation in war standby, he said, and his majesty the emperor asks us who are in the Zhou empire to help the Imperial soldiers in the battle later" Luo Feng said.

"and we all agreed to help the Imperial soldiers in the battle later, because after all, we are in the Zhou empire, Zhou said, and we cannot stand idly by when our ancestral ground wants to be taken by another Empire, and I command you to prepare a sect disciple to help the Imperial army at the border, but only the inner disciples of the class left, while the outer disciples remained in the sect" Luo Feng continued.

then an elder asked, "what patriarch is leading a disciple to the border?" ask the elder to make sure.

Luo Feng did not reply but merely nodded his head, then he said, "well, tell all the inner disciples, core disciples and elite disciples to prepare to be ready for the border, so be sure to go, because we are leaving tomorrow morning" Luo Feng ordered.

"good Patriarch" the elders replied.

In the world of souls.

a month had passed, but there was no sign yet that Qin Fan was about to break through, even though the dense energy of the two soul crystals was already running out.

ten days later, the sea of Qi Qin Fan surged strongly, the wind blew fiercely and swirled around on Qin Fan's head, a moment later.

Boooom....

there was a muffled sound from within Qin Fan's body, which signified him leveling up to a 5-star semi-immortal, after stabilizing his cultivation foundation, Qin Fan opened his eyes.

"the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it is also to level up, even the two 7-star semi-eternal soul crystals I have only risen by 1-star level" muttered Qin Fan who was dissatisfied.

"i'd better clean myself up and get out of here, I don't know how long I've been here" Qin Fan muttered.

then he stood up and patted his dusty clothes, then he went to the room and cleaned himself, after cleaning himself and putting on his new clothes, Qin Fan was out of the soul world.

Whushes....

Qin Fan appeared inside his room that was in the inn, then he opened the door of his room and walked down the stairs to the ground floor.

arriving on the ground floor, Qin Fan sat at a table by the window, then a servant greeted him.

"good morning young master" said the servant who delivered Qin Fan into the room the other day, because when Qin Fan came out of the soul world, it was morning.

"how many days have I not been out?" qin Fan asked the waiter.

"young master is not outside the room for 5 days" replied the friendly maid.

"thank you, please bring me the best meal you have" Qin Fan said and gave 1 bag of gold coins containing 25 gold coins.

"well young master" the maid replied then returned to the kitchen taking Qin Fan's order.

"do you also join in the war? ask A to B.

"however, I will continue to participate, because my sect is also involved in the war" replied the B.

then the B asked, "and what about the brother,? are you going to be in that war too?" ask the B.

"i was also very involved in the war, because I did not want foreigners to rule my ancestral land" replied the A.

"sorry sir, I was unintentionally talking about war, if you don't mind, what war do you mean?" qin Fan asked curiously.

the two young men were asked so astonished, because all the cities, clans and sects already knew if the Zhou empire and faced war, but the young man in front of them did not know what.

"do you not come from this empire?" ask the B.

"really master, I am not from this empire, I am from the Qin empire, and introduce my name Qin Fan" qin Fan replied introducing himself by using the Qin empire in the central continent as his background.

"Oh so master is from the central continent? it was only fitting that master did not know the current state of the Zhou Empire, the current Ling Empire had already moved its troops to the border, and his highness asked the sect of the large and medium sects to help the Imperial soldiers at the border" replied the B.

"and introduce my name Fei Hung, and this is my friend Hong Xiao" Fei Hung said.

"sorry because I'm still asking sir, if from here to the border takes how long sir?" qin Fan asked.

"because we are in the south, and the battle will be on the southern border, from here to the border it will take only 3 days to travel on horseback, but if by flying, then from here to the border it will take only 3 days to travel on horseback, it only takes you half a day master" Fei Hung replied.

"thank you for the information, Mr. Fei, excuse me to come out" Qin Fan said kindly as he stood up and cupped his hands.

"good sir" Fei Hung and Hong Xiao replied in unison.

then Qin Fan came out of the inn and walked to the south gate of the city, an hour later, Qin Fan reached the southern border of the city, but he was in the hold of the gate guard soldiers, because at this time, the current, Qin Fan was at the southern border of the city, each city gate was guarded by soldiers.

"sorry sir, you can't go south, because at this time there will be a war on the southern border" the soldier said.

hearing that, Qin Fan was stunned for a moment, because even though he was already in a state of alert, but the soldier in front of him was still being friendly to him, then he took out the golden badge of the golden eagle sect and he showed it to the soldier and said.

"sorry sir, I went to the border because I want to catch up with the golden eagle sect disciple" Qin Fan replied in a lie.

looking at the golden badge of the golden eagle sect, the soldier who had been polite, became even more polite to Qin Fan, because he knew very well the strength of the golden eagle sect.

"forgive me master, I don't know if master is one of the elders in the grand golden eagle sect" said the soldier very politely, KA he knew every sect that held a golden badge was only the Patriarch of the sect and the great elder of the sect, so he had thought that Qin Fan was the great elder of the golden eagle sect.

"it's okay sir, master has done a good job" replied the friendly Qin Fan as well.

then the soldier opened the gate and let Qin Fan out, then Qin Fan out of the gate, after being far enough away from the city gate, Qin Fan floated in the air and shot out at full speed.

Whushes....

as a 5-star semi-immortal cultivator, Qin Fan darted like a light, three hours later, Qin Fan reached the southern border, from the sky can Qin Fan see the army of the Zhou Empire and the muris of the sect disciples are already on standby inside the fortress.

after he saw the preparations that the soldiers and sect disciples made for quite a while, Qin Fan continued to dart south towards the Ling Empire's army.

1 Hour later.

Qin Fan was able to see the Ling Empire's warriors with over 2 million people marching towards the border, while behind the line of soldiers was a very luxurious horse carriage and escorted with hundreds of shadow warriors in the sky.

and the flattening strength of those shadow warriors was at the peak stage god emperor, and his other two people were at the 2-star semi-eternal, the, Qin Fan estimated that the two men were the leaders of the shadow column.

then Qin Fan floated towards them, the two shadow warrior leaders who felt that there was an approaching aura, they gave orders to the shadow troops to be on standby.

a few moments later.

Whushes....

Qin Fan appeared in front of those shadow soldiers, then he said.

"i warn you to come back, and tell your emperor not to attack the Zhou empire" Qin Fan told the two shadow warrior leaders.

hearing a handsome young man reminding them, made the two shadowy warrior leaders laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha..., am I not wrong with being a child? you said you were warning us? are we kidding? Hahahaha." said one of the shadow leaders laughing crisply, as he saw Qin Fan's strength was only at the peak stage sky god.

but Qin Fan was not offended or angry, he assumed it was just the wind then, then he again said.

"once again I warn you, draw your troops and tell your emperor to withdraw his army and call off the war, and never again intend to attack the Zhou empire, otherwise" qin Fan's speech was cut off by the shadow warrior leader.

"if it's not what? what can you do, boy? hanua is an ant with a lion's donkey" said the shadow warrior leader cutting off Qin Fan's words.

"stubborn" Qin Fan said then unleashed a blow of chaos flames.

Boooom...

the warrior leader who had been acting like Sombo immediately exploded and became a blood mist.

the leader of his one shadow warrior and all the shadow warriors who saw it made them very surprised, because a 2-star semi immortal could be blown up by a single blow.

Gleek..

they all gulped violently, they were like seeing a death god standing before them.

"well sir, I will draw shadow warriors and will report to your highness" replied the remaining shadow warrior leader.

Qin Fan nodded then said, "that's right" Qin Fan said then disappeared from before them all.

"very quickly" said the shadowy warrior leader who saw Qin Fan had already disappeared from his sight.

he who was a mere 2-star semi immortal cultivator was not that fast, but the young man who was in front of him just disappeared.

"have you heard what the young man said?" ask the shadow warrior leader to the shadow warrior who is behind him.

"the general" they answered in unison.

"if so disperse now" his orders.

"but general" said a shadow soldier.

"nothing but but, quickly retreat!!" his orders are firm.

"good general" they all answered and returned.

while the general was hovering down closer to Emperor Ling Wang's horse carriage, he spoke to Emperor Ling Wang and explained clearly.

emperor Ling Wang stopped the chariot immediately after hearing the story of the general leader of the shadow warriors.

he thought that the general was exaggerating his story, but the general said that it was true, and the death of his friend Qin Fan was also true.

their commander who was curious about what the emperor Ling Wang and General Yutian were talking about came closer to the horse carriage and asked General Yutian what happened, then General Yutian told the same thing to commander Zheng Dou.

commander Zheng Dou who heard that was also surprised, because killing a 2-star semi-immortal cultivator was not a young thing, but hearing the general Yutian's story if Qin Fan killed, was not a young thing, it even blew up the body of one of their generals who was in a 2-star semi-immortality with just a single blow.

"how is your majesty? do we listen to the young man or do we keep moving forward?" asked the commander Zheng Dou who saw doubt in the eyes of emperor Ling Wang.

but emperor Ling Wang did not reply and continued to think, after a moment of thought, emperor Ling Wang said.

"maybe that young man is just bullying us, it is impossible for a young man to have such powerful strength, we are moving forward" emperor Ling Wang replied after thinking enough.

Qin Fan who saw the Ling Empire's army keep moving forward was just shaking his head, he had guessed that emperor Ling Wang would not retreat just like that, for 1 more day they will reach the border.
