The First Cultivator - Changing Existence-Chapter 807: De-Aligning Interests -

Those from the future were stunned. They had witnessed one False Immortal breakthrough after another, and though the False Immortal realm itself was nothing to some of them, the breakthroughs themselves were unimaginable.

It proved that those who were breaking through had unimaginable talent. They had only seen three breakthroughs, but each one was far greater than even the greatest breakthrough they had ever heard about.

This did not spur them into action, but made them wary. They decided against future moves for the time being. They had plenty of time.

Zhou Fan returned to the mansion yard with Leaf and sat against him, cultivating.

Monty was still asleep, and he would be for a while. When he woke up, he would surely enter the False Immortal realm. How could one devour Immortals and not become one themselves?

Zhou Fan spent a few years deepening his comprehension of the Rule of Growth. After seeing three new Rules form, even he gained a little bit of inspiration.

It took longer than usual for the clouds of time to act up, around ten years compared to the expected five.

Like before, many large sects or organizations came out of the clouds of time.

Zhou Fan had expected this group to be aggressive, but they weren't. They also weren't as friendly as the last group, immediately setting themselves up wherever they wanted. Naturally, Zhou Fan would not allow this.

He appeared in front of one of the sects. This sect existed entirely on a large pyramid.

Zhou Fan's appearance instantly became the focus of every member of the sect. Numerous powerful presences locked onto him. Even if he went all out, he was unsure whether or not he would be able to defeat this sect.

There were at least a hundred people with cultivations above the Loose Immortal realm, and a few felt even more powerful than that.

This did not cause Zhou Fan to back down.

"I need your sect to move elsewhere." He said.

A voice came from the top of the pyramid. "Scram somewhere before I slap you to death, brat."

Zhou Fan snorted and held his hand out.

The suppression of the power of cultivation appeared.

The hundred figures above the Loose Immortal realm all burst forth with imprints, but none below them had such a thing.

They did not take action, merely resisting the suppression of cultivation.

"You may be able to kill me, but I can make sure every being in your sect at the Loose Immortal realm or below dies in an instant." His words made even the leaders hesitate.

"Besides, there is a reason none of you have attacked us just yet. There are conflicts of interest even among all of you, and you would all fight among yourselves to get what you want, am I on the mark?" Zhou Fan asked.

He still wasn't exactly sure what they wanted in coming back in time, but he could guess that it was related to him.

No more voices spoke out. The pyramid slowly began to move towards where the previous arrivals had stationed themselves.

Zhou Fan visited all of the newly arrived sects and organizations one by one, passing on the same message. After the first dozen or so, he didn't have to do anymore. It seemed that the message had spread. His threat was just too high for anyone to ignore.

If the entire future of the sect was annihilated, then they would surely fall apart before long. Even those who came individually, or those you could disregard their sects, would not attack. If one person attacked Zhou Fan, everyone would, and a long, harmful battle to the death would occur.

Even after the new arrivals showed up, the Universe stayed relatively quiet.

Some powerful figures journeyed towards what they called the Origin Civilization. This was the Civilization of the Origin Era. The Origin Civilization mostly stayed within the same space that the old Universe had taken up, with few going out to explore. Luckily, they did not cause harm, just looking around and understanding the Universe of the past.

It was not as if every being who had come back in time was evil.

But Zhou Fan knew that this peace was temporary. If enough time passed, some would begin to disregard the risks and take action. This situation would almost certainly end up with Zhou Fan's death and possibly the destruction of the Origin Era Universe.

Therefore, he had to stir up the waters, and de-align the future beings goals. A few thousand years passed, and Zhou Fan had investigated the goals of the future beings.

It all started with a prophecy. A path to the Origin Era would open up, and whoever managed to capture the First Immortal would gain the Origin of Cultivation. Exactly what the "Origin of Cultivation" was remained unknown, with many theorizing that it would allow someone to cultivate without bottlenecks, and others claiming that it held the true path to cultivation, one without flaws.

Zhou Fan didn't have a single clue what the "Origin of Cultivation" was. Perhaps it was simply referring to him as the Origin of Cultivation, since he was literally the Creator of Cultivation. He could indeed allow someone to cultivate without bottlenecks for the most part, and he could indeed point to a better path, the one that he, Leaf, and the Path Creators were currently following.

But he could not do it for these people, whose cultivations were even higher than his.

Many things remained unknown, but he could now confidently change things. Another thousand or so years passed, and Zhou Fan released an announcement to all of the beings from the future.

This announcement declared that the future prophecy was pure nonsense, and that as long as those from the future helped out, he wouldn't mind helping them out with their cultivations once he became stronger.

Many ignored his words, thinking them a pathetic attempt at defense, but some felt as though his words had some merit.

Those who had barely believed in the prophecy, or those who had felt what they were doing was wrong, requested audiences with him.
