The First Cultivator - Changing Existence-Chapter 788: Chat With Ye Li -

Zhou Fan stood still for years. Ten years passed, a hundred years passed, three hundred years passed. Finally, he opened his eyes.

"Found you."

He disappeared and reappeared on the other side of the Universe. From the corner of his eye, he saw a figure shoot away.

He clasped his hands together, and two Buddha's palms formed, creating a cage that stopped the figure from escaping.

A spiral escaped from that figure's body, piercing through one of the Buddha's palms, but a black palm of Demonic Qi was revealed behind it.

Though the figure could have continued trying to escape, he stopped moving and turned to look at Zhou Fan.

"What do you want?" He asked.

Across the Universe, many powerful beings took note of the two giant Buddha's palms and the Demonic palm that appeared. They took up a tenth of the Universe.

The Path Creators of the Universe all left from their locations, moving towards the palms.

Zhou Fan looked at Ye Li. "A few things. Why don't you take a seat?"

Ye Li didn't even bother responding, standing still.

"I see. In this state, I don't think you'll listen."

His body instantly moved into the Battle Universe. The rules of the Battle Universe had long been changed and reformed. At this point, it had simply become another place to fight.

Ye Li understood that if he insisted on fighting in the real Universe, he risked being attacked by all of the existing Path Creators. It was a rule upheld by all.

Ye Li entered the Battle Universe.

He and Zhou Fan once again stood across from each other.

"What do you think you're going to gain with this?" Ye Li asked.

Zhou Fan did not respond.

He held his arm out, and a green sword formed.

"Come." He said, disappearing on the spot.

Ye Li vanished as well.

They clashed in an instant, as the other Path Creators entered the Battle Universe. The first attack shattered space in countless directions. Zhou Fan appeared once again, as did Ye Li.

"It hasn't been that long since our last fight. Why are you here?" Ye Li asked.

Indeed, it hadn't been that long. However, in living as Skymender, Zhou Fan had changed a little bit.

It hadn't felt long to Ye Li, yet here he was again, a different person, though still the same.

Zhou Fan swept his sword created from the Power of Cultivation forward.

Everything in its path was destroyed, time and space rendered unstable.

A wheel formed behind Ye Li.

A piercing attack shot forward.

Zhou Fan could feel the power of Karma locking him down.

With a flick of his finger, that power shattered, and he flickered.

He appeared behind Ye Li, completely dodging his attack, and cutting off one of Ye Li's arms.

Ye Li did not move. His eyes were wide with shock.

"That was-"

Zhou Fan interrupted him. "I was holding back last time. This time, you'll either sit down or die."

Ye Li did not think long. He sighed and sat down.

Zhou Fan sat down across from him.

Before Zhou Fan could talk, Ye Li spoke.

"You just used Karma."

Zhou Fan nodded. "I told you I've been watching you since birth. I may not be remotely near your level, but I can still use it and somewhat mix it with my power."

Ye Li shuddered inside. Only now did he understand just how terrifying Zhou Fan was.

In addition, Zhou Fan was overly confident. He could have just cut off Ye Li's head. Even if it hadn't killed him, it would have injured him.

However, he hadn't done so.

This could only mean that he didn't see Ye Li as a threat.

Zhou Fan spoke. "Have you thought about what I said last time?"

Ye Li nodded. "You want all of the Path Creators to attack you at the same time. Most likely to assist in your breakthrough."

Zhou Fan nodded.

"Why should we help you?" Ye Li asked.

"You don't really have a choice. Let me break it down for you. If I break through and you don't try to kill me during that time, I will kill you. After I break through, it will surely be easy. In addition, it is your only opportunity to kill me, which I am well aware you want to do. If you try to kill me, I promise not to kill you when I succeed. And there is always a chance that I fail to breakthrough."

Ye Li was a bit confused. "You just want me to try and kill you?"

"Not just you, and not just the current Path Creators. There needs to be more. Just all of you cannot kill me." Zhou Fan said while looking around.

The Path Creators who had been spying on him understood that he was speaking to them as well. His condition went for them as well, friend or foe. Everything could be forsaken for a breakthrough.

Zhou Fan specifically focused on Ying Xiong, the "Path Creator" of reincarnation, though he was not fully a Path Creator just yet, and the Buddha, the Path Creator of the Buddhist path.

"I will kill you if you do not do everything in your power to kill me when that time comes." Zhou Fan said.

Both of them nodded.

"So be it." The Buddha said unwillingly.

Zhou Fan thanked him and focused back on Ye Li.

"There is one more thing I need to cover. I plan to revive Yhwh from the dead. I simply need your assurance that you won't act against him."

His words shocked Ye Li.

"How would you do that? I killed him with the power of Karma. It should be impossible to revive him."

"Not for me. Do you agree, or do I need to beat you a bit?"

Ye Li's eye twitched, but he nodded in the end. "Fine. As long as he doesn't attack me, I won't attack him."

Zhou Fan turned and left.

As Ye Li said, it would normally be impossible to revive Yhwh, but with his power of Faith still spread across the Universe, the idea was plausible.
