Chapter 1056: Chapter 937: The Focus of the World

People all over the world are watching the scene unfolding over the Huaxia East Sea.

Monitoring satellites clearly broadcast everything that’s happening as images to all corners of the world.

The Flaming Eagle was thoroughly enraged by Ye Fan, relentlessly pursuing him, almost pushing its speed to the limit.

As a flying-type Xuan Beast, the Flaming Eagle naturally boasts an impressive flight speed. In the Xuan Beast Forest of the Xuan Realm, there are many beasts stronger than it, but in terms of flight speed, the Flaming Eagle ranks very high among beasts of the same realm.

Although Ye Fan had already done his utmost to activate the Golden Feather Wings, the distance between them continued to diminish.

“Swoosh!”

The Flaming Eagle shook off a burning feather from its body, shooting towards Ye Fan like an arrow. Its speed was so fast that it almost broke through the limits of space, instantly appearing behind Ye Fan.

Even though Ye Fan was fleeing, he was constantly aware of the situation behind him, fearing being caught by the Flaming Eagle.

Hmm?

While flying, Ye Fan suddenly felt a huge sense of danger, and without a second thought, he descended a zhang in altitude!

Whoosh!

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out. Almost at the moment Ye Fan moved, the burning feather zipped past his scalp; if he had been even a bit slower, the feather would have pierced his skull directly.

Although Ye Fan had long activated his Protective Aura and was defended by the Heavenly Demon Armor, he still didn’t dare to take on the feather attack from the True Essence Realm mutant beast head-on.

“There’s no escape for you. Just stop and accept your fate. I’ll give you a quick death; otherwise, once I catch you, I’ll use True Fire to roast your soul to make you suffer before you die slowly!”

The Flaming Eagle was relentlessly pursuing and taunting Ye Fan, as it believed there was too big a strength gap between them, and sooner or later, it would catch him.

Such verbal taunts had absolutely no effect on Ye Fan. His Martial Arts Will was as firm as Divine Iron, and wouldn’t waver because of anyone’s words.

After dodging this attack, Ye Fan suddenly realized that the distance between himself and the Flaming Eagle was still not safe. But at this time, he was already giving it his all, and couldn’t increase his speed anymore.

Moreover, Ye Fan realized that the distance between him and the Flaming Eagle was gradually closing. Although this process was very slow and almost negligible, from the Huaxia Alliance to the African Continent, it was a thousand-mile distance. If this continued, he feared that he would be caught before reaching the African Continent.

In a moment of desperation, Ye Fan bit the tip of his tongue and decisively burned his Gang Qi, further accelerating even when it seemed impossible, putting a bit more distance between himself and the Flaming Eagle.

“Damn…”

The Flaming Eagle was taken aback, not expecting that this human cultivator still hadn’t used all his strength and could speed up in such a situation.

“Today, no matter where you flee, I’ll tear you apart to avenge my kin who died at your hands!”

The Flaming Eagle roared with all its might, its aura becoming even stronger and its speed increased a bit.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Two beams of light streaked across the sky, where the golden one in front was Ye Fan, and the orange-red one behind was the Flaming Eagle, one chasing and the other fleeing, like two shooting stars heading towards the African Continent.

In front of the TV, people all over the world watched this scene, all admiring Ye Fan’s selflessness.

“Ye Fan, although I hate you, I can’t help but say, respect! From now on, all grievances between us are written off. I hope you succeed…”

In the Luoke Family, Anton watched Ye Fan on TV and spoke slowly. He suddenly felt that he, a so-called genius, was just a joke compared to Ye Fan, like a clown.

Faced with a great disaster, Ye Fan was able to make such a decision, sacrificing himself for the greater good. For the welfare of all living beings, he didn’t hesitate to take risks, putting his life on the line. He internally confessed he couldn’t do the same.

Great love exists in the world. Although Anton was selfish, he wasn’t entirely callous or unreasonable. The real reason he opposed Ye Fan previously was that he couldn’t let go of his unparalleled genius status.

Since childhood, he had been cultivated to be considered the Savior of humanity, but now, faced with reality, he realized how incompetent a Savior he was.

But on the other hand, Ye Fan rose triumphantly all the way, in terms of both strength and bearing, performing far more outstandingly, forcing him to give his respect.

Similar scenes unfolded among other ancient forces, who understood precisely what Ye Fan’s actions meant.

Those who originally harbored deep hostility towards Ye Fan cast aside their hatred and sincerely admired Ye Fan’s decision in this situation.

“Grudges are like floating clouds, all hatred is fleeting. I hope you succeed…”

The newly appointed leaders from other ancient forces watched the broadcast and couldn’t help but admire Ye Fan’s actions. They wouldn’t have dared to do so in his place.

Knowing there are tigers in the mountain yet heading for it is easy to say but utterly different to resolve to do.

Not only the Six Great Ancient Forces but also some ordinary cultivators bore witness to this and deeply admired Ye Fan’s great spirit and courage.

“Heaven protect us, may Ye Fan successfully lead that beast to the African Continent and destroy it!”

This was the heartfelt wish of all ordinary cultivators. Their powers were too weak to participate in such an event, yet they understood that with greater power comes greater responsibility.

In truth, with Ye Fan’s ability, he shouldn’t have had to bear such a heavy burden. This concerned the safety of all humanity, which should have been a shared responsibility among the best human cultivators.

However—

Ye Fan took on the entire burden himself, leaving them with nothing to say but to pray for his success; otherwise, humanity’s extinction would only be a matter of time. No one could stand against the Flaming Eagle or balance its power.

While all of humanity prayed for Ye Fan, in a barren underground area of the American Alliance, there was another hideout Chen Daozang had arranged for himself. Though the conditions were mediocre, all kinds of communication equipment were fully available.

In one of the underground halls, Chen Daozang and Gu Yun, a cultivator from the Xuan Realm, were watching the satellite broadcast together.

Chen Daozang wore a sullen expression. He never imagined Ye Fan would dare to divert the Flaming Eagle alone, and he had also heard the announcement previously made by the Six Major Alliances.

At first, he thought it was just nonsense. He was well aware of Ye Fan’s strength. Although extremely talented and cultivating quickly, he was still just at the High-level War God Realm, with no chance against a True Essence Realm mutant beast.

Yet he didn’t expect Ye Fan would indeed do this, successfully enraging the Flaming Eagle under the world’s watch and essentially leading it toward the African Continent.

“I admire his courage, but his chances of success are very slim, almost negligible. More likely than not, he’ll be killed by the Flaming Eagle before reaching his destination.”

After viewing the satellite broadcast, Gu Yun shared his opinion based on his combat experience with the Flaming Eagle!

“Serves him right, wanting to stand out means being ready to die.”

Chen Daozang couldn’t care less about this; what mattered to him was when he could advance to the True Essence Realm. As long as he broke through that realm, with the Xuan Realm as his powerful backing, handling a True Essence Realm mutant beast would no longer be an effort.

Gu Yun glanced at Chen Daozang, saying nothing, but continued, “Even if he manages to lure that Flaming Eagle to that Sahara Desert, there’s absolutely no way he’ll survive it, given that even a cultivator more powerful than a True Essence Realm would not withstand it. His death is certain. It’s a shame for such a talented person.”

“It’s his own fault. If he wants to show off, he should be ready to die,”

stated Chen Daozang as he shook his head, reiterating his point.

Gu Yun eyed Chen Daozang but said nothing, knowing that his pride as a member of the Xuan Realm made him believe that, regardless of how talented an Earth person can be, they can never surpass those from the Xuan Realm.

“To know that there are tigers on the mountain yet to head for it nonetheless, he is truly admirable.”

Gu Yun fell silent, finally concluding his observation of just how determined Ye Fan was in his choices.

“Lots of grievances are like floating clouds, all revenge is fleeting,” he mused rhetorically, hoping that Ye Fan’s audacity would lead to success.

The other new helmsmen of the Six Great Ancient Forces, watching the televised scene, couldn’t help but admire Ye Fan’s decision. They also wouldn’t have dared to make such a sacrifice.

Even ordinary cultivators who witnessed the scene felt a deep respect for Ye Fan’s immense courage and perseverance.

“May heaven ensure that Ye Fan leads that Flame Eagle to the African Continent and destroy it!”

This was the heartfelt wish of all ordinary cultivators. Their capabilities were limited, and they lacked the right to partake in such an epic showdown. Yet they also knew that the safety of humanity was on the line, and greater forces should share the responsibility.

However—

Right now, Ye Fan was bearing this heavy burden alone, and all they could do was raise their hopes for him. Should he fail, humanity’s extinction was no more than an eventuality. No one else could handle the Flaming Eagle, nor was there any force capable of containing it.

Meanwhile, in a hideout deep beneath the American Alliance, set up by Chen Daozang as another hideout, the conditions were basic but complete with all kinds of communication equipment.

Inside one cell in the underground hideout, Chen Daozang observed the broadcasted images with a darkened expression. He never imagined that Ye Fan would dare to lead the Flaming Eagle away alone, and yet seeing that, it seemed what the Six Major Alliances had announced previously was indeed true.

“I can’t believe it. I never thought Ye Fan would dare to lure the Flaming Eagle away by himself. Given the world’s attention on us, he successfully angered the Flaming Eagle, essentially leading it towards the African Continent. Only halfway there, I’m sure the Flaming Eagle will get him first.”

“Serves him right, wanting to seek the spotlight means being prepared to die,”

stated Chen Daozang dismissively, shaking his head.

Gu Yun glanced at him, but said nothing more. Being from the Xuan Realm, he had a natural sense of pride, believing that no human, regardless of their talent, could accomplish what those from the Xuan Realm could.

“Destined to die, his talent is wasted,” lamented Gu Yun, pondering the lost potential.

“After all, knowing there are tigers in the mountain, he still chooses to go towards it,” Chen Daozang taunted.

This enmity was as fleeting as clouds, yet he hoped Ye Fan could succeed as well.

These sentiments were echoed by newly appointed heads of the other ancient forces as they watched the broadcast. Each felt a sense of respect towards Ye Fan, acknowledging their own lack of courage to undertake such a perilous act.

Random cultivators on Earth also witnessed the scene and felt endless admiration for Ye Fan’s sheer bravery and determination.

“Heaven help us, bestow your blessing on Ye Fan to lead that beast to the Sahara Desert and vanquish it!”

This plea was echoed by all common cultivators. Their abilities were too minor to partake in such a grand endeavor, but they realized that the fate of humanity rested on this action. They understood fully that without someone formidable enough to challenge it, no one could oppose the Flame Eagle.
