Chapter 539 - Flying Eagle Alliance
Xiao Zhen ran like his life depended on it. Noticing Chen Fan’s abysmal vitality, he hurriedly asked, “How are you feeling, Brother Chen Fan?”
Chen Fan had played a crucial role in their plan to take the Earth Fire Heaven Lotus. Had he not held back the Fire-Scaled Beast, Xiao Zhen wouldn’t have stood a chance.
Chen Fan took out an elixir and consumed it. He soon said, “I’m fine. Let’s leave quickly. The Fire-Scaled Beast will catch up to us soon.”
Swish, swish!
Chen Fan and Xiao Zhen fled for their lives. The enraged Fire-Scaled Beast pursued them like a mad dog, bent on revenge. Only the blood of the duo could sate its anger now.
However, they were top geniuses of the thirty-six nations’ younger generation. They were lightning fast; before long, they had put a good distance between them and the beast.
Swish!
Half an hour later, Chen Fan and Xiao Zhen descended into a valley.
Pfft!
Just as they landed, Chen Fan staggered and spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood.
Xiao Zhen’s expression darkened immediately, and he cried out, “Brother Chen Fan!”
Chen Fan waved his hand and said, “I’m fine. It’s just clotted blood.”
Xiao Zhen sighed in relief and said, “We could get this lotus all thanks to you, Brother Chen Fan. I shiver at the thought of fighting that beast alone.”
“Since we’re cooperating, I had to do my best,” Chen Fan said.
“Well said!” Xiao Zhen exclaimed. “I knew I could count on you. From now on, consider me your brother!”
He took out the lotus pod containing ten seeds and said, “Brother Chen Fan, you put in more effort and suffered heavier injuries. You should take six, and I'll take four.”
Chen Fan shook his head and said, “We agreed on splitting them evenly. Besides, if it weren’t for your invitation, I wouldn’t have gotten even one. Let’s stick to our original plan.”
“This...”
Chen Fan nodded and said, “That’s right.”
Xiao Zhen stood up and said, “Brother Chen Fan, what are your plans going forward? Over a thousand geniuses from the thirty-six nations are here competing for opportunities. It’s not advantageous to venture alone. Why don’t you come to our Flying Eagle Alliance first?”
“I’ll be imposing on you, then,” replied Chen Fan.
He still didn’t know much about the island itself or the geniuses here. He thought that an alliance like that was bound to have more information than him, so joining them seemed like a good move.
Xiao Zhen brought Chen Fan to a modestly sized valley over fifty kilometers away where several martial artists had gathered. They were all at least in the high-level Core Formation realm, with fewer in the Nine Revolutions of the Golden Core level.
As Xiao Zhen streaked across the sky with Chen Fan, drawing the attention of those in the valley, a pair of youths, one man and one woman, approached them.
“This is Liu Xin, a disciple of the Ancient Dawn Empire’s Traceless Immortal Palace,” Xiao Zhen introduced, his voice ringing in Chen Fan’s ear.
Liu Xin was an extremely beautiful woman, dressed in a baby goose-yellow dress. She was like a human fairy, her eyes were like water, her skin like snow. Her absolute beauty was stunning.
“This is Luo Qian, the Demon Crushing Sect’s top disciple of this generation from the Sky Rock Empire.”
Xiao Zhen was referring to a tall and handsome youth around thirty years old.
“Brother Xiao, this person is...?” Luo Qian glanced at Chen Fan with scorn.
“He is Chen Fan, a disciple of the Great Chu Empire’s Spring Autumn Sect. Don’t underestimate him. He’s no less capable than me, which is why I invited him to join us for a while,” Xiao Zhen explained.
“Welcome,” Luo Qian said plainly. His expressions said that he didn’t think much of their group’s new member. Evidently, Xiao Zhen’s words hadn’t convinced him of Chen Fan’s strength.
A ninth-level Core Formation realm expert couldn’t be considered weak, but there were plenty of them in their alliance. Moreover, they were far inferior to a three-revolution Golden Core supreme expert like him.
If the scope were the entire Hong Domain, a ninth-level Core Formation realm was merely a quasi-first-rate expert.
Even if he had to pick out the worst, first-rate genius, they would be at the peak of the ninth level, perhaps even at one or two-revolution Golden Core.
As for top geniuses, the minimum would be like the number one figures of the younger generation of the six great nations, reaching four or five-revolution Golden Core.
Now that all the young geniuses of the entire Hong Domain were on the Hidden Dragon Island, a cultivator at the early stage of the ninth level did not count for much at all. Only experts at the peak of the ninth level or higher had the right to speak here.
