Chapter 586: Unparalleled Talent - 586

As years passed, Ye Li seemed to have disappeared. Nobody could find him, not even Zhou Fan.

He did not create a race, take over an area, or kill any more beings. He simply disappeared.

Zhou Fan had more or less expected this. He turned his gaze over to the rest of the Universe.

It was time to begin waiting once again. Monty was awake, slithering around Zhou Fan, and Leaf was swaying. It was quite peaceful for a few sextillion years.

Suddenly, Zhou Fan felt something in the River of Cultivation. Looking at it, a large water spout shot out, reaching extremely high before falling back into the water.

Zhou Fan's eyes widened in surprise. A supreme talent had been born. One that could possibly change the current state of the Universe.

It was not a Path Creator, but a cultivator. With the emergence of Path Creators, cultivators seemed to fall into the background, but they were the most powerful existences below the Path Creators. It would only take two major breakthroughs for a Sage realm Cultivator to reach the Great Dao Realm.

Zhou Fan had seen many droplets fly up, some bigger than others. These usually represented the birth of a potential Sage Realm cultivator. 

This, however, was incomparable. Even the High Sage from long ago, whose talent was unmatched, could not compare.

Speaking of that High Sage, Zhou Fan still didn't fully understand why he had done what he had done. He had never seemed arrogant or foolish. Perhaps reaching the top of the Universe had given birth to arrogance, but regardless, his downfall seemed sudden.

Zhou Fan, in his curiosity, had even spoken to the Buddha about it.

For the Buddha to immediately cripple him, it seemed unusual.

The Buddha had responded simply. "I had heard of him doing various evil deeds even before he came to me. It didn't seem fit for someone like that to be so powerful."

Zhou Fan felt it a pity that such a talent had been crippled and eventually died, but so be it. 

Maybe there had been some sort of scheming or planning behind his downfall, but that didn't matter to Zhou Fan. No matter what had happened, it was unimportant after so long. 

But now, Zhou Fan could see another cultivator potentially surpass the Sage realm. After thinking for a moment, he stood up and left. Before leaving, Leaf and Monty joined him.

Zhou Fan stepped forward and stood on a mortal planet. In front of him was a child, and around him were hospital staff and his parents.

It was a newborn baby. Zhou Fan was there, but none could see him.

He had thought about it and decided to teach this child. 

It wasn't because he valued him or cared about humanity. It was because of the emergence of Path Creators. Other Paths besides Cultivation were making their way into the world, and Zhou Fan felt like, as the Creator of Cultivation, he should teach Cultivators.

He would only teach. This being's Life and Death would be irrelevant to him. After all, there would always be another talent.

Zhou Fan waited for the child to grow. He lived an average life, neither too rich nor too poor. He did not have too much contact with Cultivation, nor too little. His planet was average as well.

The strongest cultivator was at the Inner World realm. It was better than many planets, but worse than many as well.

When the child was 7, he was introduced to cultivation for the first time. With his exceptional talent, he immediately reached the limit in place for Cultivation speed.

This attracted the attention of many powerful beings once it was revealed. 

Zhou Fan wasn't focused on that. Instead, he was looking at how slow the child was Cultivating. Although he had indeed set up the system of limitations on Cultivation speed, things had changed since then.

Cultivation was no longer the sole Path in the Universe.

It seemed that these limits needed redefining. It was too bad that he only noticed it now. 

The next day, the Universe shook. Cultivation 2.0 was put in place.

Limits were redefined. They were still released at the Void Traversing realm, but now, the limits on earlier levels had changed.

Qi Gathering Limit - 1 day per level.

Foundation Establishment Limit - 2 days per level

Core Formation Limit - 3 days per level

Nascent Soul Limit - 5 days per level

Soul Formation Limit - 10 days per level

It changed limits while still keeping a certain balance and order to the Universe.

It seemed like a small change, but it truly turned the Cultivation world upside down.

Perhaps the one to feel this change the most was the talented child. By the age of 10, he was at the Peak of the Void Traversing realm. He was only at that point because he was guided by his elders to slow down. 

He needed to understand each realm and practice his various powers. Otherwise, he would have a high realm but no combat power.

The child did not have a Divine Physique or an Innate Talent.

All he had was pure, raw, unparalleled Cultivation talent.

The child, while still a child who wanted to have as much fun as possible, listened to his elders. He restrained his speed until one day.

While his elders were lecturing him, teaching him what they knew about cultivation, a being descended from the sky.

They were in space, so there was not really a sky, but he descended from far above and they could not even see where he had come from.

The room, an open structure out in space, fell silent. 

Zhou Fan spoke. "How far would you like to go along the path of Cultivation?"

He looked at the child while he spoke.

The elders in the room sighed. They had expected this day. The Child's talent was truly unparalleled. Finally, a worthy Master had come.

Even the Inner World realm cultivator felt the exact same. 

He had only been waiting for the day when the Child took a real Master.

The Child wasn't sure how to answer. He looked at his elders with apparent confusion.


Chapter 587: Mi - 587

The Child stared at the Elders for a while, but seeing they did not respond, he eventually looked back at Zhou Fan and answered.

"The top?"

"Is that a question or your answer?" Zhou Fan asked.

The Child thought for a moment before responding.

"The top."

"And what is the top?" Zhou Fan asked.

The Child thought for a moment. "The Sage realm."

He answered the question confidently.

"No. The top is far higher than the Sage realm. Ask your elders about historical battles that shook the Universe."

The gazes of the Elders shook for a moment before the Inner World realm Cultivator spoke.

"In the past, long before I was born, there were records of battles that shook the entire Universe, battles that resulted in the deaths of a nearly infinite number of beings. The Peak we know is the Sage realm, but it is not truly the top." 

Zhou Fan nodded.

The Child, who had intently listened to his Elder, looked back at Zhou Fan. "What is the top?"

"Do you want to reach it?" Zhou Fan asked.

"Yes." The Child said resolutely. 

The simple words, "Shaking the Universe" lit a fire within him. He had a new desire, as expected from a Child.

"The top is known as the Peak, and no Cultivator besides me has ever reached it."

The Elders' heads snapped over. They looked at him with surprise and suspicion.

They were surprised he would say such a thing, and suspicious if he had any ulterior motives.

The Child, however, didn't understand how unbelievable Zhou Fan's claim was. 

His eyes lit up. "You've reached the Peak?"

The Elder wanted to warn him of the scam, but they knew that Zhou Fan was far too powerful.

Zhou Fan ignored their suspicion and focused on the Child. They were right to not believe it. Believing it would make Zhou Fan suspicious of them.

"I have. You can too." Zhou Fan said.

The Child was excited. He believed it as well. Besides pure innocence and not fully understanding everything, he also knew that he had unparalleled Cultivation talent. He had been told this his entire life by everyone. It didn't seem ridiculous that he could reach the Peak.

"How?" The Child asked simply.

Zhou Fan held out his hand. "Come with me." 

The Child looked at his Elders. After all, Zhou Fan was still just some stranger.

Although the Elders were suspicious of Zhou Fan, he did not seem to have ill intentions. Besides, he gave off an unreadable air that made them think, just for a moment, that he could be telling the truth.

The Elders nodded, not sure where the Child would end up after taking this path.

The Child got up and took Zhou Fan's hand. Zhou Fan walked away with the Child beside him. "You don't have any attachments here, do you?"

"Just the Elders. I'll come and see them again one day."

Zhou Fan nodded. "That's reasonable."

A power shot out from within him and entered the Elder's bodies. Since the Child wanted to see them again, they didn't need to die for now.

Although they walked, they traversed an unimaginable distance. When the Child even realized he was moving, he had entered a vast landscape.

"This is my residence." Zhou Fan said as he sat against Leaf, who planted himself in the ground again. 

Monty slithered off of Zhou Fan and laid down on Leaf's branches.

There was no need for any complications. Zhou Fan began to teach the Child. The Child, being a Child, did not constantly Cultivate or train.

He was not completely dedicated or focused yet. He was a normal child. Leaf seemed to like him. When the Child was bored, he would climb on Leaf or even sleep on him. Monty did not like the Child much. He only occasionally interacted with him, despite the Child's numerous attempts to pet Monty.

Zhou Fan chuckled inwardly. If he saw the true form of Monty, he wondered what his reaction would be.

Looking at Leaf, he had recently entered the 1st level of the High Sage realm. 

Although countless years had passed, he had broken through earlier than expected. Zhou Fan had expected him to take ten or a hundred times longer, but it seemed that he was lucky.

As the Child grew, so did his Cultivation and his mindset. He began to focus more on Cultivation, training, and even comprehension.

He still held Leaf in high regard, knowing that Leaf was a living tree, but they were no longer close, not that they had ever really been that close.

Leaf did not mind, he swayed happily regardless. As long as Zhou Fan was here, what did it matter?

He had quite the good mindset.

The Child, after so long, had told Zhou Fan his name, but Zhou Fan did not like it. It started with a Y, and he was tired of names starting with Y's.

Ye Li, Yhwh, Yoha, enough was enough. 

He called the Child "Child", but he also gave him another name. The name was "Mi".

Yes, an M looked much better than a Y.

The Child, naturally, was confused by Zhou Fan's recent dislike of the letter Y, but ignored it regardless. He understood more, though not about the outside Universe. At the very least, he knew that his Teacher was most likely the strongest in the Universe.

Just as the Child was about to ask Zhou Fan to go out so he could experience the Universe, Zhou Fan spoke to him.

"It's about time you go out on your own and learn some things. You're not allowed to cultivate while you're gone. Bye."

Without being able to utter a word, Mi appeared in the middle of a street. He was surrounded by people walking past him.

Someone bumped into his shoulder, and they were both knocked back equally.

"Sorry." The passerby said as he continued.

Mi looked at his shoulder in shock. He was at the Peak of the Inner World realm. Under Zhou Fan's guidance, his combat strength far surpassed others of the same realm. 

If he bumped into the shoulder of his Elder from long ago, even his Elder would be knocked down without resistance.

Where was he?
