Rebirth Of The Urban Immortal Cultivator-Chapter 1132 - Arriving on Earth
August, 2027.
It was already summer. The weather was great and the country was prosperous. The entire Earth became peaceful and flourished after the quarrel between the cultivators from other planets and the North Qiong Sect ended.
All kinds of cultivation sects and gangs started to emerge in the past six months. The North Qiong Sect certainly continued being the largest cultivation sect on the top of the mountain that overlooked Earth, but the cultivators from other planets also passed down their cultivation arts. Even though such cultivation arts might be incomplete, they were like fuel delivered in times of snow for the cultivators on Earth who lacked guidance in cultivation arts, which compensated for their biggest shortcoming.
So.
Many Connate Cultivators and Golden Core Cultivators appeared. A few people broke through the Connate level almost every day and one reached the Golden Core Level every two weeks. The number of Golden Core cultivators on Earth had already surpassed the hundred mark at the moment. Also, apart from the North Qiong Sect, there were dozens of other sects on the planet.
The Dark Mist Sect, the Huosang Sect, the Zheyuan Sect…
The most thriving were undoubtedly the three sects from Heavenly Jupiter and the Tianlan Sect where Anpo was. Each of them had almost a hundred thousand disciples and were catching up with the North Qiong Sect.
At the peak of Yun Wu Mountain, Chu Zhou City.
Yun Wu Mountain had been rising every second after the arrays and Spirit Veins were formed. In just a year, it had become a mountain that was ten thousand feet tall, even taller and larger than Mount Everest, just like a giant pillar outside Chu Zhou City. That place had become the cultivation center of the North Qiong Sect and the Earth. Countless people flew up and down every day.
Those who were able to enter the mid-levels were at least Golden Core Cultivators; only the core members of the North Qiong Sect could cultivate at the peak, including Chen Fan’s friends and family, aside from the Nascent Soul Ancestral Patriarchs.
Old man Su Yanghao was walking on top of the thousand-foot North Qiong Mountain with hands behind his back.
The Su family of Wu Zhou had suffered for seven years, but Lu Yanxue immediately took them back to Chu Zhou City once Chen Fan returned. They were related to Fang Qiong’s grandfather after all, so they couldn’t just abandon them.
“Hi, Old Lord Su!”
“Stay healthy, Old Lord Su!”
“Good to see you again, Old Lord Su!”
The elders at the peak-stage Golden Core level and the junior members of the Chen family greeted Old Lord Su respectfully. Su Yanghao nodded with a smile in response. Even though he wasn’t in Wu Zhou anymore, he looked even more energetic and young, and his face was ruddy. It seemed that he had been practicing Qi Refinement and taking medicines. Besides, he was relieved and pleased because of his family’s revival.
“Father, a few consortiums in Europe, the United States, and also the Mitsui Group in Japan want to do business with the Su family and develop some Spirit Stone Mines in the East Sea. They don’t need our money; we just have to lend our name to their endeavors. I heard that they already have billions in investment.” Su Zhengde, the leader of the Su family and Fang Qiong’s uncle, showed up with a smile, clearly thrilled by the prospect.
The Spirit Stone mining industry had been developed in the past few years.
After the environment of Earth changed, the previously rare Spirit Stone mines began to form. Although they were much smaller than those found on Planet Tianhuang and Heavenly Jupiter—and the Spirit Stones’ quality wasn’t quite high—they belonged to Earth after all. Once a Spirit Stone Mine was found, it would be claimed by a country or a top sect as strategic materials. Just like oil and uranium mines, they would never open them to the public and would only sell a small amount of the Spirit Stones. Some mines were currently occupied by a private company, which showed how powerful that company was.
Su Yanghao frowned and said seriously, “Did you agree?”
“Not yet. It was only a verbal exchange. That is why I’m here to talk to you about it.” Su Zhengde quickly put away his smile when he saw Old Lord Su’s face.
“Reject it. The Su family doesn’t want to be involved in those things.” Su Yanghao shook his head.
“That’s a trade that involves more than a billion yuan. Our family didn’t even have that much in assets back when we were at our strongest.” Su Zhengde couldn’t just give up so he tried to refute, but he quickly lowered his head after seeing Old Lord Su’s serious face. He added, “The Tianlan Sect in North America also wants to start a company with us. We’ll get half of the cultivation materials, medicines, Dharma Treasures and talismans the Tianlan Sect sold to China. Can we accept the offer?”
“The Tianlan Sect? Anpo’s sect?” Su Yanghao frowned tighter and stared at his son. “Have you lost your mind? How dare you get involved in Anpo’s business? Don’t you know he’s the leader of the cultivators from the other planets and is an enemy of the North Qiong Sect?”
“But Heavenly Lord Anpo has clearly said that it was just a misunderstanding. He’ll make peace with them and will put the matters of their disciples and hatred behind him…” Su Zhengde said.
“You fool!” Su Yanghao shouted, “The cultivators from the other planets aren’t humans. They’re just a bunch without morals who are only scared of the powerful ones. And you believed him just because he talked to you nicely? Where have your decades of experience and your brain gone? Were they eaten by a dog? The Su family will be doomed if I leave you in charge once I die!”
Su Zhengde’s lips moved a bit. He wanted to refute him, but didn’t dare to say anything in the end.
“Ah!” Su Yanghao was a bit tired, and he didn’t want to see his son like this. He heaved a sigh and said, “Zhengde, you must know that the Su family has been able to revive only because of Divine Lord Chen’s kindness. He put what we did to him behind, but we cannot ever forget, and we must do everything right. If we anger Divine Lord Chen and the North Qiong Sect, they can just tell the world they have nothing to do with our family and we’ll immediately go back to the dust again.
“Do you really think Europe, the United States, the Mitsui Group and the Tianlan Sect want to cooperate with us because of our family’s reputation? Even for free? They’re only doing this because of the North Qiong Sect and Divine Lord Chen!”
As Su Yanghao spoke, Su Zhengde’s head kept lowering and it almost touched his chest in the end.
“Of course, there’s no need to be too careful. Even though Xiao Qiong is missing, he’s Divine Lord Chen’s wife after all. If these were the ancient times, the Su family would be like the relatives of the emperor and you would be the emperor’s father-in-law. It’s normal to have quarrels between relatives. Look at how the elders of the Chen family treated Divine Lord Chen! And yet, isn’t Divine Lord Chen still protecting the juniors of the Chen family right now? So, ask Su Peng and Su Xiao to get closer to the younger generation of the Chens and the Divine Lord’s disciples. We still have a long way to go in the future. After all, it’ll be the era of Immortal Cultivation,” Su Yanghao said.
“Yes, father. I understand.” Su Zhengde’s eyes brightened. He nodded and left.
“F**k the Mitsui Group and the Tianlan Sect.
“We’ll be able to live longer and become Connate or Golden Core Cultivators if our family can rely on Divine Lord Chen, not to mention money. We’ll live a few thousand years. By then, we would no longer care about such a small amount of money.”
Su Zhengde gave a more beaming smile as he thought.
Not only the Su family of Wu Zhou.
The Lu family of Lin City, the Zheng family of Hong Kong, the An family of Don He Province and the Wang family of Yan Jin also held onto the North Qiong Sect tightly and relied on this backbone to expand their families slowly, so that they could stand tall in China like dominators and become famous first-class families in the world.
As for the Chen family, they were definitely thriving!
It was Chen Fan’s family. Even though the honored Chen Huaian and Chen Gexin were missing, the third-generation juniors like Chen Guoguo and Chen Ning were still present. They were thirty years old at the time, so they could represent the Chen family and the North Qiong Sect to deal with family matters. North Qiong Corp had also restarted operations.
North Qiong Corp had mainly operated according to the Jin Xiu Group’s structure and sold Spirit Qi Water back then. At the moment they had occupied almost half of the Spirit Stone mines on Earth, selling all kinds of Spirit Stones, Spirit Medicines, herbs, talismans and Dharma Artifacts. Chen Fan brought the Blade Strengthening Gourd filled with cultivation resources from Planet Tianhuang.
There were billions of Spirit Stones that were enough for the cultivation world on earth to use for a century, not to mention that there were many other Heavenly Medicines, Spirit Medicines and ordinary medicine.
“Mr. An, you’re here.”
“Miss Zheng, you’ve also arrived.”
The leader of the An family in Don He Province, An Tianshu, met Zheng Anqi from the Zheng family in Hong Kong. He immediately smiled and said, “Miss Zheng, we can safely say the proposal is real, right?”
“I think so. A few Nascent Soul Cultivators of the North Qiong Sect have gone out and even the Ancestral Patriarchs from Heavenly Jupiter and Planet Zheyuan are also sending someone over.” Zheng Anqi nodded.
The Zheng family of Hong Kong suffered the least when the North Qiong Sect disappeared. After all, the family status was only based on money. And yet, they had still been oppressed by many new forces. Zheng Anqi could only try her best to keep the family afloat. Once the North Qiong Sect was rebuilt, Zheng Anqi immediately returned to take charge of North Qiong Corp’s finances.
At the North Qiong Pavilion.
Not only the An and Zheng families—
The senior members of the Lu family, the Wang family, the Chen family and the North Qiong Sect had also gathered. Everyone knew something important was going to happen when they saw this group together; all of them looked serious, but there was still a hint of joy in their eyes.
“Looks like the rumors are true. They will hold a ‘Divine Lord Coronation Ceremony’ for Xiao Fan and officially bestow him with the Divine Lord title,” Auntie Tang thought as she witnessed the event unfold.
In the past six months.
There had been similar speculations on Earth and the cultivation world on other planets.
Chen Fan had astonished Planet Tianhuang and killed Divine General Mangya. He was already qualified to take over Divine Lord Jiang’s place and become the first Divine Lord in the last hundred thousand years! Earth would become the top planet in the Abandoned Planet Region once he received this title, and the North Qiong Sect would rise above all others.
“Have those things Jiang Churan told me about really ended?” Auntie Tang frowned and remembered Jiang Churan had told her about the Divine Princes of the large sects in the Star Ocean.
Even if it were so, there were still cultivators from other planets who needed to be dealt with, so nobody had time to care about the large sects in the Star Ocean.
Master Ling Yun and the others had mentioned that only a few Divine Princes and elders of the large sects in the Star Ocean had visited Earth. Their real troops would take countless years to travel to Earth; the distance between the planet regions in the Star Ocean and the Abandoned Planet Region was much more apart than that between Planet Tianhuang and Earth. If they decided to fly over with their ships, they would have to travel thousands of miles.
Even the Divine Prince of the Wuji Sect and the Apollo Palace had to start their trip to Earth more than a decade earlier.
Auntie Tang was relieved as she thought of this.
However, they had no idea that the Wuji Sect’s vanguard had arrived on Earth. Yi Qian looked over the planet and said, “This is the legendary Planet East where the Deities trapped a fiend?”
