Chapter 251: Demon World - 251
There were still a few that thought further into the matter. Namely, they were the three kings and the emperor.
The king of the elf kingdom had a good relationship with the high elves, leading to him being the main person who worried the most.
The emperor also had an interest, but he was more aligned with the common peoples' thoughts.
The high elves got what they deserved. The other two kings, while still curious and fearful, hated the high elves.
They too preferred the possibility of retribution.
Although fear and worry were rampant among the more important people, the world did not change all that much.
In total, Zhou Fan spent three months in the river before coming out. He felt refreshed.
He had decided in the river to go experience the other worlds before returning to Pangu, causing him to leave the river so early.
He still had an entire year and a month before it was time to leave. With a jump, Zhou Fan flew out of the elf world in the direction of the demon world.
Demons had been a recurring race throughout his time in the universe, and Zhou Fan had begun to wonder how many different providences they would have.
Zhou Fan knew that, once the different races met each other, they would probably give their races new names.
If the two elf races met, they may become the heaven elf race, since they were in heaven's galaxy and the origin elf race, since the elves on earth were the first.
Naturally, it was unlikely that they would choose those exact names, but Zhou Fan was simply guessing.
As Zhou Fan closed in on the demon world, he first noticed its red color. He would have expected nothing less from a demon world.
It was equal in size to the elf world.
This time, Zhou Fan had no intention of randomly falling on the planet and going with the flow.
These people were demons, not elves. Firstly, Zhou Fan would have to change his appearance as the difference between humans and demons was not simply ears, but skin color and other obvious features.
Secondly, the demons were completely different from any peaceful race in the universe.
When appearing homeless in a human or elf world, it would be expected to be taken in and sheltered by the good in someone's heart.
In a demon world, however, it would be luckily to not be killed or tortured on the spot.
The societies were simply completely opposing.
Zhou Fan descended on a mountain. Near it was a large city with walls.
With a glance, Zhou Fan could tell how the demons of the heaven galaxy differed from those on earth.
Firstly, they had a single horn on the center of their foreheads curving upwards.
They had no wings on their bodies at all. If not for their red skin and their horns, they could theoretically pass as humans.
They also had fangs in their mouths. The fangs seemed to be designed for eating creatures alive.
The fangs didn't extend out of their mouths, but they took up their mouths from top to bottom.
As Zhou Fan surveyed the city, he saw the most important structures. The first would be the mansion in its center. It was not quite a castle, as that would be disrespectful to the king, but it was very close.
In the middle of the north, east, south, and west of the city were towers. In total there were four.
With a single glance, Zhou Fan could tell their use. Unlike the elves' crystals which were used for offense, these towers were surprisingly used for defense. In synergy, they would create a giant shield that protected the entire city.
Like the elves' crystals, they could not be used without someone of a certain strength. These in particular needed either one person in the soul formation realm, or 4 in the later levels of the nascent soul realm.
That was what was needed to control it, but to activate and maintain it, spirit stones were required.
Overall, it was a pretty good defense.
As Zhou Fan continued to survey the city, he noticed many things that the elves did not have. There were guillotines all around, shackles that held prisoners, and what seemed like a few public torture chairs.
Zhou Fan was not too surprised since the demons were naturally evil and vile. The public torture chairs were the equivalent of a playground on earth.
Aside from that, there was only one other thing that garnered Zhou Fans attention. Below the city, inside a giant cave nearly the size of the city, was a sleeping dragon.
Right now, it was regaining its strength. The dragon was extremely large. It was likely a species of giant dragon since it kept its size even with the cultivation reset.
Although nothing about it was truly interesting, Zhou Fan couldn't help but be interested in dragons.
During his time in the universe, dragons were the only beings that were consistently powerful.
Xiaolong was one of the supreme beasts of earth. The dragon king, Ao ting, had been the king of all supreme beasts in the Zhou world, and the current leader was likely to be his son, Ao tu, or one of his descendants.
So, despite the fact that it was sleeping and extremely weak, Zhou Fan had an interest in the dragon.
More importantly, he wondered if its existence was known to the demons.
Instead of asking someone, Zhou Fan teleported to the library of the city. It was even smaller than the Lang Yang city's library from long ago, but it held enough information.
Using his divine sense, Zhou fan learned that, either the dragon's presence was unknown, or it was kept a secret by the higher ranked people within the city.
Giving in, Zhou Fan teleported to the city mayor's house, directly next to him. The cultivating mayor snapped his eyes open, but Zhou Fan knocked him out before he could understand anything.
Then, he read some of his memories.
To the current Zhou Fan, such a thing was extremely simple. Especially for someone not even in the foundation establishment realm.
It was simply a matter of covering the mayor's mind and soul with his divine sense and fully analyzing it using extremely profund concepts.
In order to not have to go through the mayor's entire life story, Zhou Fan just went through his thoughts since the cultivation reset. If he knew about the dragon, he would have definitely thought about it at least once.
Chapter 252: Worlds - 252
After reading the mayor's mind, Zhou Fan was met with a surprise. He had no idea that there was a huge cave or a dragon below his city.
Zhou Fan had felt that there was a 99% chance the mayor would know about it considering that the cave was so huge that it was the size of half of the city.
But he had no clue.
Zhou Fan could only look at the cave again and think about the possibilities. The cave was completely enclosed, leaving no room for the dragon to escape, so it must have formed the cave itself.
Such an event would easily cause a huge earthquake that could ravage the entire city.
Therefore, it was likely that the dragon had been living in the cave before the city was even created.
If that was the case, then the dragon should have been immensely powerful. Zhou Fan had learned in the library that the city was 5,000 years old, outdating even a few of the kingdoms in the demon world.
The city had gone through multiple mayors and multiple battles, but the dragon had remained under it the entire time.
5,000 years without moving an inch. Not every existence could do that.
Although Zhou Fan was interested in the dragon, he decided to leave it be without looking into it any further. The dragon was clearly reclusive and Zhou Fan had no reason to bother it.
Zhou Fan flew above the demon world and circled it a few times, taking into account most of what he saw. In the end, he left after only three days.
He had severely overestimated how interesting the demons were.
Next, he made his way to the barbarian world. Even from afar, it was clear that the planet was nothing more than a giant wasteland with few plants, rivers, and oceans.
It was a miracle that the barbarian race could even survive. Luckily, they had evolved to need little food, and they did not need that food to be healthy.
There were a surprisingly large amount of animals in the barbarian world, giving them all the meat they needed.
Even with the cultivation reset, food was easily taken care of.
Of course, once the barbarians reached the core formation realm, the worry of food was completely irrelevant.
Even at the foundation establishment realm food could be mostly ignored. It was nothing more than a delicacy for those who liked to eat.
Unlike most other races which did not follow a certain style of cultivation, the barbarians focused on their bodies.
Earth and metal affinities were the most common and the most useful to barbarians.
Fire gave explosive strength and movement, giving barbarians good fighting ability, and water allowed the barbarians to move flexibly.
They were quite a unique civilization. They focused little on combat style and put everything into a few punches. If the battle did not end there, it was usually called a draw.
There was not much politics in the barbarian world. Although, in a way, strength ruled in all worlds, it was even more so for the barbarians.
Even the son of an emperor would be treated as a commoner unless proved to have great strength. Talent was essentially disregarded when considering someone's position.
Even if the holder of the barbarians' providence were to show talent that could allow them to exceed someone else's strength in a few days, they would still be treated worse than that person, until their strength was higher.
Zhou Fan considered the barbarians to be the most straightforward and honorable race. He even liked them a bit.
Lying was extremely uncommon and tricks were not only frowned upon, but illegal in some areas.
If Zhou fan felt like it, he could start as a nobody and show more strength, eventually becoming an emperor, not out of fear, but out of respect and merit, in just a few days.
He would not show off godly power, nor a high level background, but the barbarians would wholeheartedly accept him as their leader despite not knowing him a week ago.
Such was the allure of a true strength based society.
Sadly, there were always bad things to match the good. In return for a great mindset and good body talent, the barbarians were extremely stupid. While a genius would emerge every now and then, he would eventually become dumb as he was influenced by those around him.
The odds of a barbarian focusing on arrays or formations was one in a million.
Luckily, a space shattering realm barbarian would still be able to use the teleportation array.
All the array required was the Qi of such a cultivator and it would automatically activate. Otherwise, the barbarians may never leave their home planet.
After going around the planet a few times, Zhou Fan left it as well, heading to the final planet containing the most unique race among the five.
The spirit race.
As he came towards it from afar, he saw the foggy planet. It seemed like a giant, ethereal cloud covered the entire world.
This was the spirit race world.
Zhou Fan descended on the world and landed on a foggy hill. The ground was half real and half illusory. The laws of physics seemed to barely apply to such a place. Occasionally, he saw spirits roaming around the place. They seemed to have essentially zero intelligence.
Spirits were actually more similar to beasts than humanoid creatures. They were born with little intelligence and gained power by unconsciously absorbing the Qi in the surroundings, or by devouring other spirits.
Once they reached the foundation establishment realm, they gained a bit of intelligence. It wasn't much, putting them on the same level as a 5 year old human.
At the core formation realm, they would have intelligence similar to that of a 10 year old child.
At the nascent soul realm, they would truly develop their intelligence, having above average intelligence for an adult human. From there, it shot upward, although not quite at the level of a normal cultivator.
