616: Chapter 616 Returning to Headquarters, the Old Man at Headquarters!

The next day arrived.

It had already been a day since the First City Lord announced the news regarding the path of eternity.

In Zhenyuan City, the group of prodigies and World Lords were all prepared to return to their respective homes.

With the path of eternity about to open, there was no Pure Land Zone or Holy Spirit Zone for them to use for tempering. The current situation on the battlefield had also entered a period of peaceful stagnation, so there was little point in them remaining in Zhenyuan City.

As for Li Fan, he had originally planned to break through to the World Lord level directly in Zhenyuan City before considering a trip back to the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters to see his family. He also wanted to see if he could request some resources from headquarters to try and push for the Immortal level as quickly as possible.

However, last night, Tai Fang personally came to find him, telling him to follow them back to the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters first, saying that the company's high-level executives wanted to see him.

Hearing this, Li Fan thought it over and didn't hesitate much before agreeing directly.

Returning to break through to World Lord would be the same anyway.

As for the high-level executives wanting to see him, there was a high probability they had some sort of opportunity to give him.

Because right after Li Fan emerged from the Pure Land Zone, his battle achievements within had been spread by many fellow compatriots who had witnessed them. Li Fan's terrifying speed of improvement had once left Tai Fang so shocked he was speechless.

Therefore, it was highly likely that Tai Fang had reported his situation back to headquarters, and seeing his excellent performance, the high-level executives planned to grant him more rewards.

Since there were rewards to be had, why would he refuse?!

...

Over the following month.

Li Fan, along with Peng Song and the other prodigies of the Cosmic Cloud Company, boarded the vessel for the journey back to the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters.

And during this month.

Li Fan did not chat with Peng Song or the others. Instead, he remained alone in his lounge, immersed in comprehending Law Power.

With a month of comprehension, plus occasional guidance from Ming Yan, Li Fan was now almost fully prepared to break through to World Lord.

If nothing unexpected happened, Li Fan planned to rest briefly after returning to headquarters and then directly break through to World Lord!!

On the other side.

As this month passed.

News regarding the path of eternity had begun to spread successively throughout the two Great Universes.

At first, it only appeared on the virtual network as rumors.

But soon, these rumors began to spread and ferment rapidly. Coupled with the successive return of prodigies from various major factions and the decreasing news of riots on the battlefield's defensive lines, the news spread wider and wider.

Thus, in a short time, the matter of the path of eternity had completely spread throughout the two Great Universes.

After all, paper cannot wrap fire.

Just two days ago, the Supreme Council of This Universe directly announced the matter of the path of eternity to the entire universe.

Without any surprise.

It caused a total boiling sensation!

The terrifying level of discussion directly overshadowed the so-called total war.

Some even made bold claims on the virtual network that they would go to the path of eternity to fight for a chance.

Such words once set off a craze across various major forums.

Of course, such talk mostly cooled down after a few days.

The reason was simple.

If ordinary people like them could also lay a finger on the path of eternity, then this path of eternity would be far too ridiculous.

Moreover, even if they could go, could they really expect to snatch the opportunity to become an Eternal Being from the hands of Immortals, Super Venerables, or even Universes Strongest Beings?!

So now, the various forums were discussing what the restrictions of the path of eternity would be, and whether the super-strong beings of This Universe could produce an Eternal Being faster than the Alien Universe!

...

Another half-month passed.

By now, the spaceship carrying Li Fan and the other prodigies had successfully arrived at the headquarters.

Upon arrival, Tai Fang directly let the prodigies go for free activities, only reminding them not to slack off in their cultivation during this period.

In fact, this reminder was entirely redundant.

As early as the journey back, the prodigies had basically all started frantic cultivation, just like Li Fan.

Although they were currently only Domain Lords, and were more than just a little bit away from the so-called Eternity.

But the restrictions for the path of eternity hadn't been announced yet. What if they got lucky and it turned out that only those at their level could enter?

So, to prepare for all possibilities, they had to improve their strength as quickly as possible.

Back to Li Fan.

Not long after Li Fan stepped off the spaceship, he was taken by Tai Fang to the Core Zone of the Cosmic Cloud Company Headquarters.

This wasn't Li Fan's first time here, so he wasn't too nervous.

Soon.

Following Tai Fang's instructions, Li Fan went to the planet at the center of the Core Zone.

This planet was somewhere Li Fan was visiting for the first time.

Looking up, he saw blue seas and skies; the scenery was quite pleasant.

And what surprised Li Fan was.

The cosmic primordial energy on this planet was incredibly dense, denser than any place he had ever been, or even any environment provided by any treasure.

At the same time, between the heaven and earth of this planet, he could even sense infinite Law Power.

It was no exaggeration to say that this place was simply a holy land for cultivation!!

Before Li Fan could recover from the wonder of this planet.

A figure appeared before him.

This was an old man with white hair, a slightly stooped body, and incredibly deep eyes.

Looking at the old man before him, a sense of horror suddenly rose in Li Fan's heart.

Because he could not perceive the existence of this old man at all. The old man seemed to have merged with the heaven, earth, and universe, becoming a part of it.

“Junior Li Fan greets Senior!”

Li Fan did not dare to hesitate and immediately gave the old man a deep bow.

The old man scrutinized Li Fan very carefully before finally revealing a faint smile.

“Not bad.”

“I have been watching you for a long time.”
