Chapter 404 - Will of the Evil God

The powerful will of the evil god rushed into Chen Fan’s mind, wanting to rip Chen Fan’s soul apart and take its place.

“Submit, submit, lowly ant, submit to me. I can grant you eternal life, immortality, and invincibility..."

Seductive voices echoed, challenging Chen Fan's resolve.

“Submit?” Chen Fan’s mind remained firm and unshakeable. He said viciously, “Why don’t you try that?!”

“Lowly ant, daring to resist the divine radiance of a god. How rebellious...” said the evil god, as it attacked Chen Fan’s will nonstop.

The pain stemming from his soul grew increasingly severe, making Chen Fan scream out in pain.

"This is bad. Chen Fan's will is under attack by the evil god's residual will..."

Wei Buyu's expression darkened and he decided to intervene, but Chen Fan suddenly said, “No need, Master!”

Wei Buyu halted, his eyes filled with uncertainty; after a moment's hesitation, he chose to trust Chen Fan.

Chen Fan’s will frantically resisted the evil god’s remnant will. The pain made his willpower and soul stronger.

“Lowly ant, my divine radiance illuminates the world. Embrace my light, believe in me, and offer your soul, and you shall gain eternal life.” The evil god’s demoralizing voice kept ringing out.

“Go away, go away, go away!”

Chen Fan gritted his teeth, relentlessly pushing back against the evil will with his willpower.

“You’ve angered me, lowly ant. You shall receive divine punishment. You’re committing blasphemy, against a god, you know that?”

The remnant evil will grew increasingly frustrated and agitated, unable to overcome Chen Fan's resilient will despite its relentless onslaught. Now, it only roared ferociously.

“Given this defiance, lowly ant, I shall punish you ruthlessly. You have earned my ire and deserve a thousand deaths. Die!”

Suddenly, an indescribably terrifying willpower struck.

Chen Fan’s mind instantly went completely blank, as if his soul had shattered, leaving him in a vegetative state.

Suddenly, the evil god’s remnant will let out miserable screams in Chen Fan’s mind.

“Very well, I should try absorbing the divine stone’s energy!”

Chen Fan began refining the Divine Stone of Life; immediately, a deluge of vitality energy came from the stone, transforming into the purest energy.

Boom, boom, boom!

Chen Fan's aura surged instantaneously, rolling and billowing like waves.

An extremely powerful vitality aura erupted from him, making Wei Buyu’s expression light up. The vitality energy permeated the surroundings, prompting Wei Buyu to swiftly adjust his cultivation to absorb it, progressing his cultivation level.

Half a month passed by very quickly, as Chen Fan diligently refined the energy of the Divine Stone of Life.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a thunderous roar echoed from Chen Fan. His aura soared, stirring the winds and clouds, releasing an overwhelming pressure.

Chen Fan was still at the first level of the Core Formation realm, but he was now at the peak of the first level. With such strength, he didn’t have to fear even experts at the third level; moreover, he could defeat experts at the second level.

“Hahahaha, good, good, good!” Chen Fan stood up and laughed out loud, his voice reverberating.

He withdrew his cultivation, so his aura also quickly receded.

It had only been fifteen days since he entered the Core Formation realm, but his cultivation had already taken such a huge leap forward. If he had been eager to advance to the second level, he could have easily broken through in another week or so.

“Oh boy, you really succeeded in refining it.”

Wei Buyu was also beaming with joy. Over the past half a month, he had benefited from Chen Fan and his cultivation had loosened up, putting him in high spirits. (Note: loosen as in becoming closer to breaking through, maybe he was in a bottleneck.)

“Haha, I just got lucky,” Chen Fan said, smiling.

Wei Buyu took out two banners and said, “Thanks to you, I made some bets during the recent martial arts competition and won some treasures. These are the Wind and Cloud Banners; it’s a formidable set of defensive treasures. I want you to have them for added protection on your journey to the Myriad Deaths Mountains.”

Chen Fan graciously accepted the Wind and Cloud Banners. “Thank you very much, Master.”

“Mmm, spend some time refining the Wind and Cloud Banners, then make your preparations to go to Myriad Deaths Mountains. You only have three months for the test. While time is of the essence, remember not to overexert yourself. If it becomes too challenging, retreat immediately. Your safety is paramount, understood?”

“I will heed your advice, Master.” Chen Fan nodded heavily.
