Chapter 978: Reputation and Fame
After returning and staying in the Deep Blue Plane for a period of time, Li Fuchen went back to Divine Leaf City.
As expected, the Divine Leaf City was still ruled by the Blood Ax Imperial Lord. Everyone knew that with the World Tree leaf here, the Blood Ax Imperial Lord would probably leave only after a very very long time. Perhaps, he might even make this place his main base.
“Primary Extreme Heaven Lord, you?”
In the Swordsmen Guild, when the White Rainbow Heaven Lord first saw Li Fuchen, he didn’t feel anything. But when he took a second glance, he couldn’t help but get stunned.
“You reached the star domain-level?” The White Rainbow Heaven Lord’s eyes were so big as though he had seen a ghost.
If the White Rainbow Heaven Lord didn’t see a star domain-level heaven lord before, he would think that Li Fuchen was a city lord-level heaven lord. But he had seen star domain-level heaven lords and was rather familiar with star domain-level heaven lords’ qi presence. Li Fuchen’s qi presence wasn’t considered very strong among the star domain-level heaven lords, but he was definitely not weak either.
However, it had only been a few years. How did Li Fuchen progress from grade 1 heaven lord to star domain-level heaven lord? Normally speaking, a few million or dozens of millions of years would be needed. Furthermore, the precondition was to have the potential of a star domain-level heaven lord or to have heaven-defying and fateful encounters. Otherwise, even with hundreds of millions of years, it wasn’t possible.
“Yes.” Li Fuchen nodded. He wasn’t planning to hide his strength. In any case, he couldn’t hide it either. He couldn’t possibly be hiding his qi presence constantly as it would be too tiring.
Shortly after, the Sword Wind Heaven Lord had also arrived. After finding out that Li Fuchen was a star domain-level heaven lord, the Sword Wind Heaven Lord’s reaction was comparable with the White Rainbow Heaven Lord.
A star domain-level heaven lord was someone that was invincible in a star domain. Even in the entire universe, star domain-level heaven lords were pinnacle combatants.
“I shall call you Primary Extreme Lord now.” The Sword Wind Heaven Lord stated.
In the universe, star domain-level heaven lords were normally addressed as lords and lordesses. Only extremely ancient star domain-level heaven lords were addressed as primogenitors or progenitors. The Crosswise River Primogenitor was one of the ancient and powerful star domain-level heaven lords.
Only a rare few individuals knew that Li Fuchen had become a star domain-level heaven lord. The White Rainbow Heaven Lord and the Sword Wind Heaven Lord didn’t dare to recklessly leak out this information either.
Time passed by…
“I finally reached the 8th level of Soul Merge Realm.”
Since the Primary Extreme Sword Technique became top rate apex state, Li Fuchen’s cultivation speed was very fast. But no matter the speed, it wasn’t possible to progress by one level within a few years. After all, it wasn’t as simple as to accumulate qi or sword energy. It was a qualitative progression.
Li Fuchen might be a star domain-level heaven lord now, but in terms of fundamentals, he was far inferior to other star domain-level heaven lords. If he didn’t have the Calamity Immortal Body, he might be the one to perish at the end.
Therefore, the top priority was to cultivate until he was 9th level or even peak level of Soul Merge Realm.
“Perhaps, I can trade with the Blood Ax Imperial Lord for some Divine Leaf Sap.”
The others might be afraid of the Blood Ax Imperial Lord, but Li Fuchen didn’t need to be afraid…
“Primary Extreme Lord, you are a friend of the Crimson Snow Lordess. It doesn’t matter if I give you some Divine Leaf Sap.” Inside the city lord residence, the Blood Ax Imperial Lord waved his hand and a spatial ring flew towards Li Fuchen.
Li Fuchen looked inside and noticed a huge amount of Divine Leaf Sap that could fill up a small pond. If they were exchanged into peak-grade spirit stones, it would be at least a billion or even 10 billion peak-grade spirit stones.
“This is too much.” Li Fuchen frowned.
Favors were the hardest to return. He would much rather have a fair trade, as he would only owe a small favor at most.
“Primary Extreme Lord, don’t misunderstand. You are an esteemed lord now and such things should be a small matter to you. Unless the Primary Extreme Lord doesn’t wish to have me, the Blood Ax Imperial Lord as a friend.”
The Blood Ax Imperial Lord favored Li Fuchen heavily because of two main reasons. Firstly, Li Fuchen had an exceptional relationship with the Crimson Snow Lordess who was a Child of Undying, and her status was far superior to the Blood Ax Imperial Lord. Secondly, Li Fuchen was a star domain-level heaven lord after all, and also a member of the Swordsmen Guild. Therefore, the Blood Ax Imperial Lord was willing to have Li Fuchen as a friend. In any case, he was in control of the Divine Leaf City and had almost unlimited access to the Divine Leaf Sap. Such a small amount was trivial.
“Since that is the case, Nobody Li shall accept the favor.”
Li Fuchen decided to treat the Blood Ax Imperial Lord as a regular friend. In his opinion, the Blood Ax Imperial Lord could only be a regular friend to him as the Blood Ax Imperial Lord’s nature was too barbaric and brutal, making him not suitable as a close friend.
With enough Divine Leaf Sap, Li Fuchen’s cultivation was progressing rapidly. Half a year later, he reached the 9th level of Soul Merge Realm. Three years later, he reached the peak level of Soul Merge Realm.
Right now, Li Fuchen had basically reached the peak of everything.
If he wanted to progress any furthermore, the difficulty would increase by 10 times or 1000 times. In order to become a half-god, he would need to fulfill plenty of harsh conditions.
“It is time to venture out.” After letting out a breath, Li Fuchen revealed a smile.
The universe was massive and not even a half-god could explore it fully. It was already praiseworthy to explore 10% or 20% of the universe. There were some hidden domains that no one had ever visited. There might be heaven-defying opportunities inside or terrifying danger.
Previously, Li Fuchen didn’t have sufficient strength and had a high possibility of perishing if he ventured around randomly.
But he was already a star domain-level heaven lord and as long as he didn’t look for death, it wasn’t really possible for him to perish.
“Before venturing, I better make myself public.”
…
Thousands Spirit Feast was a banquet hosted by the Thousands Spirit City Lord, Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord.
The fame might not be comparable with the Myriad Flower Lady’s Myriad Flower Assembly, but the Thousands Spirit Feast was still rather famous in the Crosswise River Star Domai. Everyone knew that the Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord had was a gourmet and his feast would always contain fine delicacies.
Since Li Fuchen had nothing else to do, he naturally wouldn’t miss this heaven lord event.
“The Rampant Thunder God Bull’s meat is indeed incredible.”
The large hall had dozens of tables and each table was seated with one heaven lord. Li Fuchen was seated next to the Sword Wind Heaven Lord and the White Rainbow Heaven Lord. There was a round disk that was a few meters in size and half of the disk was filled with glistening meat dishes, while the other half was filled with fine liquor.
Li Fuchen picked up a piece of beef and took a bite. There was an indescribable texture and taste, as it felt as though he was being electrocuted.
Immediately after, Li Fuchen drank a mouthful of Star Fluid Wine and he felt as though he was inside the peaceful universe.
After eating half a dish of beef, the White Rainbow Heaven Lord said, “It is truly worth it to make this trip, truly worth it.”
The Rampant Thunder God Bull was extremely rare. In the entire Crosswise River Star Domain and the surrounding star domains, only the Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord was breeding some Rampant Thunder God Bulls.
The Sword Wind Heaven Lord took a glance and said, “We are also hitching along with the Primary Extreme Lord. Look at everyone, which of these individuals aren’t city lord-level heaven lords.”
The Thousands Spirit Feast might not be as famous as the Myriad Flower Assembly, but the Thousands Spirit Feast was rather high-class. The invited individuals were all city lord-level heaven lords. Most of them were from the Crosswise River Star Domain or from nearby star domains. Had it not been for Li Fuchen, the Sword Wind Heaven Lord and the White Rainbow Heaven Lord wouldn’t have been invited.
As for Li Fuchen’s identity as a star domain-level heaven lord, it was basically spreading out in the Crosswise River Star Domain. This was mainly because Li Fuchen wasn’t intentionally hiding it.
Reputation and fame was important. Li Fuchen felt that letting everyone know he was a star domain-level heaven lord was actually a good thing. At least, it would put up some deterrence.
“Primary Extreme Lord, this is the Rampant Thunder God Bull’s heart. It is the most precious part from its body, please have a taste.”
The muscular Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord served a dish personally and placed it on Li Fuchen’s table.
“Sure.” Li Fuchen picked up his fork and knife to slice a piece of bull’s heart.
After a few breaths, Li Fuchen’s eyes lit up. The taste of the bull’s heart was 10 times, 100 times better than the meat. The Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord had only served the bull’s heart to the Crosswise River Primogenitor and the Myriad Flower Lady. If it was Li Fuchen, he would be reluctant to let others taste it too.
“As long as the Primary Extreme Lord likes it.”
The Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord was delighted. In the past, he was rarely able to invite any star domain-level heaven lord to the Thousands Spirit Feast, while the Crosswise River Primogenitor wouldn’t attend every time. Li Fuchen’s attendance was actually an opportunity for him.
To be honest, when the Divine Leaf City Lord was destroyed, the Thousands Spirit Heaven Lord was rather sad. Therefore, it was important for him to form a good relationship with Li Fuchen. He heard that Li Fuchen and the Blood Ax Imperial Lord were rather close.
“Myriad Flower Lady arrives.”
“Crosswise River Primogenitor arrives.”
“Blood Ax Imperial Lord arrives.”
After the Thousands Spirit Feast started for a while, the three heavyweight figures arrived.
