Chapter 911: One Palm, Five

For Lin Fan, the ascension of a cave heaven into a world was a qualitative change.

"Ding, obtained the title of Creator."

"Refine World (3/1000)."

As for the title of Creator, Lin Fan really didn't know what use it had; just refining worlds like this was rather boring.

Now, within this newly formed world, there were already many living beings. These were ordinary creatures, strange in shape, and of unknown species.

But he had to give this world a new name.

"Primordial."

The beginning of everything.

The name was acceptable, so Lin Fan happily settled on it for the new world.

Now, although Lin Fan's strength was at the early stage of the Ancient Realm, he could crush all mid-stage opponents, and even late-stage ones could be suppressed by his power.

As for peak-stage Ancient Realm experts, it was hard to say. If he encountered a fool like the Sword Clan Ancestor, he could bulldoze his way through.

But in Lin Fan's view, such cases were rare, after all, there weren't many like the Sword Clan Ancestor who had trained with the sword until they became foolish.

One month later.

Lin Fan wandered aimlessly, encountering several pursuits during this time.

Those supreme beings had deeply hated Lin Fan; most of the divine objects had been taken by him, making him the human that countless supreme beings were determined to kill.

As for where the Water-Fire Emperor and the Death Demon God had gone, Lin Fan really wasn't sure.

When the divine objects emerged, the Water-Fire Emperor and the Death Demon God were not present. In Lin Fan's view, this was rather strange.

Could there be something in this world more important than divine objects?

Just then, Lin Fan noticed something in the distant sky.

Thunder and lightning flashed in all directions, as if someone was unleashing a powerful move.

Among them were several auras, extraordinary in nature, but in Lin Fan's eyes, they were nothing worth mentioning.

"What do you mean? I, the Southern Saint Emperor, have no enmity with you. Why are you hunting me?" A man surrounded by five figures found himself unable to break through for the moment.

In the past few years, the Southern Saint Emperor's cultivation had advanced to the initial stage of the Supreme realm, all thanks to the merging of myriad realms. Without it, the enhanced will of heaven and earth would have made further progress nearly impossible.

Moreover, his own strength was already formidable, and seizing the scattered Eternal Thrones was naturally a simple task for him.

The Five Heavenly Thieves.

These notorious thieves had gained great fame in recent years, their strength formidable and extraordinary. The Southern Saint Emperor now found them quite troublesome; their combined assault had nearly cost him his life.

Among them, the Sky-Chasing Thief was a woman, exuding intense killing intent. Her gloomy eyes fixed on the Southern Saint Emperor as she said, "The supreme powerhouses have issued a mission: slay the human race and receive rich rewards. Though you have no grudge against us, blame your high bounty."

The Southern Saint Emperor's face turned extremely grim. This was utterly ridiculous.

After the merging of myriad realms, he had gone into seclusion. Who would have thought that upon emerging, simply because he was human, he would attract the pursuit of these five powerful beings?

Moreover, these five thieves were on par with him in strength, especially their combined attack technique, which was extraordinary. If not for a treasure he possessed, he would have died at their hands long ago.

Back when the myriad realms had not merged, there had never been any rumors of such powerful beings. Where had these fellows come from after the merging?

Suddenly, countless experts had appeared, some of whom were not much weaker than him.

"Why waste words with him? Take his head and claim the reward!" The Heaven-Slaying Thief roared ferociously, a scar on his face stretching from the top of his head down to his neck, as if someone had once cleaved his skull.

The Southern Saint Emperor watched the five warily, his mind racing. He had to find a way to escape.

"Oh, isn't this little Nan? In such a sorry state, being hunted down?" Just then, Lin Fan stepped out from the void, looking at the scene with surprise.

The five Heaven Thieves' faces changed in unison as they looked toward the void beside them.

The Southern Non-Sage Emperor was also startled at this moment, then looked over and said, "It's you, kid."

When he saw that the newcomer was Lin Fan, the Southern Non-Sage Emperor breathed a huge sigh of relief. Good, reinforcements had finally arrived. But what had this kid just called him?

"Little Nan?"

Damn it, when had this kid become so arrogant, daring to call him Little Nan?

"Little Nan, what's with that attitude? I'm not 'this kid.' Please call me the Human Emperor," Lin Fan said discontentedly.

"Another human."

The five Heaven Thieves looked at Lin Fan, each revealing a sinister smile. "Didn't expect such good luck—to encounter two humans at once. After killing you, the rewards should be exceptionally generous."

"Who are you people?" Lin Fan asked.

"Kid, you need to be careful. These guys are all at the Supreme Realm: Pursuing Heaven Thief, Killing Heaven Thief, Beheading Heaven Thief, Shaking Heaven Thief, and Demonic Heaven Thief."

The five Heaven Thieves straightened their backs, clearly satisfied with their fearsome reputation, especially pleased by the demeanor of this later-arriving human.

Fear!

"Damn, have you got a grudge against the heavens? One pursues, one kills, one beheads, one shakes, and one is demonic—what deep hatred is that? These names aren't good, not good at all."

"How dare you!" Pursuing Heaven Thief was instantly enraged, not expecting this human to be so insolent.

"Kid, let's join forces," the Southern Non-Sage Emperor said. He didn't know Lin Fan's current strength, but it probably wasn't weak.

If the two of them worked together, they might have a good chance of breaking through.

"I refuse. I really don't like that form of address. If you call me Emperor, I'll help you; otherwise, you'll have to figure it out yourself," Lin Fan said with a shrug.

"Oh, come on." The Southern Non-Sage Emperor hadn't expected the kid to be so hung up on the title even at a time like this. For a moment, he was speechless.

"Kid, this isn't the time to throw a tantrum!" the Southern Non-Sage Emperor called out urgently.

"Little Nan, goodbye." Lin Fan turned and prepared to leave without looking back.

"Hmph, come and go as you please? Not so easy!" Pursuing Heaven Thief roared, and a blast of fierce energy directly split the void.

But to their astonishment, Lin Fan didn't even dodge. He took the hit head-on, then said somewhat displeased, "You guys better be careful. If I make a move, you'll all die. Little Nan, have you decided? If not, I'm leaving. You can take your time dealing with them."

The Southern Non-Sage Emperor was greatly shocked. He knew Pursuing Heaven Thief's strength; that blast of fierce energy could shatter anything, and even he would have to dodge it.

But who would have thought this kid could take it head-on with just his physical body? It was monstrous.

"Human Emperor, let's join forces," the Southern Non-Sage Emperor said, having no choice but to change his address.

"Mm, that's more like it," Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Alright, you take two of them. We can't drag this out—find a way to break through," the Southern Non-Sage Emperor roared, light coiling around his palms as he prepared to go all out.

"Sigh, these five thieves have pushed you to this point? You're pretty pathetic. Watch me."

Lin Fan shook his head, took a step forward, and directly swung a palm strike.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

...

The five Heaven Thieves didn't even have a chance to react; their bodies exploded violently. One palm strike killed all five—simple as that.

"This..."

The Southern Non-Sage Emperor was instantly dumbfounded, as if he had seen a ghost...
