The three overlords had never been so happily ordered around.
Even overlords found it hard to ignore such immense temptation.
Resurrection.
How much had they sacrificed?
They had poured in all their resources, only to achieve this result.
Although Chen Fan, upon his return, offered no explanation, they all understood that something must have been resolved in the south.
Even if the result was temporary.
This was a cause for celebration.
The three of them eagerly pointed out familiar individuals.
Whether it was the Realm of Life and Death or the Sword Domain, they were all people from their own worlds. Their auras were familiar, and a slight sensing was enough to detect them.
As for the Dragon King and the Demon Butterfly, there was no need to think twice. As long as the aura was chaotic, they would resurrect them directly. They were either demonic beasts or chaos beasts.
Even enemies could be resurrected. How dare they resist?
"Ah..."
The first person woke up.
Needless to say, it was from the Realm of Life and Death.
With enough experience, one became adept at anything, even resurrection.
"City Lord."
Who would have thought that the first to awaken would be Fu Yu?
As soon as he woke up, this guy was incredibly excited: "We won, right?"
Chen Fan smiled: "Something like that."
"That's good."
Fu Yu was extremely thrilled: "I knew it, City Lord would definitely be able to turn the tide."
This was absolute trust.
Fu Yu firmly believed that even if they won, it would be due to the City Lord's last-minute intervention.
This guy... Chen Fan shook his head: "How many times have you been resurrected?"
"Uh, this..."
Fu Yu fell silent.
His resurrection count was almost depleted.
Familiar figures one by one awakened from the river of time.
Unfortunately, some people were still beyond reach, Bixian being one of them.
"Alas."
Chen Fan sighed.
But this was the nature of chaos; life and death had their limits.
"City Lord Chen."
The Sword Master approached, cupping his fist: "These are all of them."
Behind the Sword Master followed countless scattered spirits, which had emerged from the river of time and were found by him.
Everyone was present, not a single one missing.
"Mm."
Chen Fan nodded: "Drag a few more worlds over. The energy is not enough."
"Alright."
The Sword Master turned and left. The Demon Butterfly gestured back, and the Great Emperors understood immediately, quickly departing.
Not long after, large worlds were dragged over.
"Rise."
Chen Fan began to busy himself again.
More and more people appeared.
All four had spirits, and they could be found with a search.
It was worth mentioning that among the chaos beasts, the number of resurrected individuals was astonishing.
"You two, you've gone too far..." Chen Fan looked helplessly at the Demon Butterfly and the Dragon King.
These two were relentless.
The Dragon King still had some semblance of shame, but the Demon Butterfly was utterly shameless, constantly picking and choosing from the river of time, resurrecting any chaos beast, whether she knew them or not.
"Cough cough."
Even the burly Dragon King felt a bit embarrassed: "Demon Butterfly, that's enough."
Hearing this, the Demon Butterfly, who was still sifting through the river of time, reluctantly returned, finally releasing a handful of spiritual consciousnesses: "These are the last ones."
Chen Fan: "..."
Another hundred-plus.
Chen Fan's teeth were about to ache.
The Demon Butterfly transformed into the appearance of a young girl. She originally looked like this. She said with a smile: "Thank you, City Lord."
Despite being an overlord, she put on such an act.
This was quite exasperating.
He could only helplessly resurrect these last hundred-plus spiritual consciousnesses.
After all, more chaos beasts were a good thing; they would make it easier for people to leave their worlds.
"Phew."
This bout of work had utterly exhausted Chen Fan.
His body was fine, but his mental energy was severely depleted.
"Alright."
Chen Fan said: "We can continue the invasion. There are still many people waiting for resurrection. Next are the Great Emperors, which will require more energy."
"Go."
Upon hearing this, the Demon Butterfly turned and left.
Chen Fan distinctly heard the Demon Butterfly whisper to a tiger beside her: "Hurry back north and drag over the world that my clan considers their graveyard..."
Chen Fan: "..."
That tiger cast a furtive glance at Chen Fan before turning and bolting.
"Old Dragon."
Chen Fan, feeling helpless, sought balance from the Dragon King.
"Hmph."
However, the Dragon King let out a mighty roar: "Villain, you dare to resist? Do you truly think this King doesn't exist? Kill..."
The Dragon King, with imposing might, charged towards a fourth-tier Heavenly Emperor.
Chen Fan: "???"
This excuse was truly something else.
...
Not long after, the Five Elements Thunder Emperor arrived.
Everyone already knew the intention of the Yin-Yang Dao Master.
Without the participation of the Yin-Yang Dao Master in this great battle, they would not have won, nor even had a sliver of a chance.
Everyone agreed to the Yin-Yang Dao Master taking ten eighth-tier great worlds.
The Five Elements Thunder Emperor cupped his fists from afar, not taking any unclaimed worlds.
There were many worlds in the west. With millions of years of accumulation, there were over a hundred eighth-tier worlds.
Soon, the Five Elements Thunder Emperor personally took ten great worlds and dragged them away.
He was somewhat reluctant to leave.
But under the Dao Master's orders, he unwillingly dragged the ten worlds away.
A grand feast then began.
Great worlds were broken through and gathered together.
For the moment, no one touched them. Everyone knew these worlds were meant for resurrecting top-tier combatants.
Only after everyone was resurrected would it be their turn to share the feast.
...
Just as Chen Fan and others were sharing this grand feast.
In an infinitely distant void, a place separated from the chaos by space.
Three stone statues stood tall.
At this moment, the eyes of all three stone statues opened.
"Guangming."
One of the stone statues spoke: "You tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice. Your home has been ransacked this time."
"..."
The sculpture of Guangming remained silent for a long time.
But the anger in its eyes proved its fury.
The third stone statue spoke, saying: "It won't be long before we completely refine the power of the Thunder Lord. Then we can leave seclusion."
"Tsk tsk."
The first sculpture said: "Guangming, your home is gone, and you're not going out to defend it?"
"No, no, no."
The other continued: "I'm thinking for your sake. Your home is gone, yet you're still exploring. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stand it."
"Hmph."
The Lord of Guangming snorted and closed his eyes.
Out of sight, out of mind.
These two fellows were practically begging him to leave immediately so they could monopolize the Thunder Lord's inheritance.
Years ago, they had joined forces to ambush the Thunder Lord here. The Thunder Lord's legacy alone had benefited the three of them immensely.
Of course, there was also the power of others.
They were not the only six who had ganged up to围剿 the Thunder Lord.
The Thunder Lord was too powerful. In the end, he had killed three of them before they managed to slay him at the last moment.
Recalling it now, they still felt a lingering fear.
The Thunder Lord's strength was enough to secure a position in the Upper Three Heavens.
The six who had joined forces at that time had never expected the Thunder Lord to be so strong.
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were divided by strength.
The Upper Three Heavens were recognized as the domain of the strongest beings.
After a long while, seeing that the Lord of Guangming remained silent, the other two sculptures could only close their eyes.
What a pity.
If Guangming were willing to leave, the two of them could have gained even more.
But this fellow, even with his home gone, refused to leave.
Truly stubborn.
