Chapter 5040: Above the Universe Emperor Realm

"Hehe… What are you afraid of? I have no ill intent toward you! If I did, do you think you could resist?"

Xiao Fan chuckled and shook his head, walking toward the youth.

The youth standing before him, who hailed from the Kongchen Holy Land, had a true form belonging to the Yao Race—a type of monster Xiao Fan had never seen before.

In Xiao Fan's view, he must be a member of the Yao Race from the Kongchen Holy Land.

"You… if you come any closer! I will… I will call for help!" The youth gritted his teeth, intending to summon his companions.

Xiao Fan shook his head helplessly, took a single step, and arrived beside the youth.

A vast aura roared, rendering the youth unable to move.

Before Xiao Fan, mere Pseudo-Emperor Realm strength was simply not worth mentioning.

"If you don't want to die, then cooperate with me obediently, do you hear me?" Xiao Fan said indifferently.

"I… okay, okay, okay! I will cooperate!" The youth nodded repeatedly.

In truth, Xiao Fan could have used a more brutal method, which would be to directly use a Secret Technique to search his soul.

But if he did that, the youth's Foundation would be damaged.

Xiao Fan had no feud with him and was unwilling to do so.

Through the youth, Xiao Fan learned that his Holy Land was called the Kongchen Holy Land.

The influence of this Holy Land was not as powerful as Shengtian Mansion, but it was not a vassal of Shengtian Mansion either.

According to the youth, Shengtian Mansion was very strong, controlling ten major Holy Lands under its command, as well as countless small Holy Lands…

The so-called small Holy Lands were just Small Worlds, but their locations did not belong to any specific Holy Land.

Shengtian Mansion had great ambition and had been expanding, clearly aiming to become the force that would unify the world after the Ancient Burial Holy Land.

The influence of the Kongchen Holy Land was also not as great; although it was inferior to Shengtian Mansion, Shengtian Mansion dared not covet it.

The youth's name was Yan Gu, a Prodigy cultivated by the Kongchen Holy Land, who had come to the Ancient Burial Holy Land to collect Spiritual Materials.

Some larger Holy Lands, once they collected enough Power of Sentient Beings, would come to the Ancient Burial Holy Land.

Because here in the Ancient Burial Holy Land, there were many rare Spiritual Materials that other Holy Lands lacked; they were indispensable Materials for divine medicines and the forging of divine weapons.

"My Lord, I've said everything, please don't kill me!" Yan Gu begged pitifully.

"Kill you? Hehehe… Rest assured, I won't kill you." Xiao Fan chuckled and patted Yan Gu's head.

Seeing this, Yan Gu breathed a sigh of relief.

"In your place! Are there many experts in the Universe Emperor Realm?" Xiao Fan thought for a moment and asked curiously.

"Universe Emperor Realm? It's… it's alright." Yan Gu scratched his head.

Xiao Fan: "…"

"How many are there?!" Xiao Fan asked.

He had yet to see any experts in the Universe Emperor Realm; Xiao Fan had only ever seen two: the Heavenly Emperor and the Ghost Lord.

And yet, Yan Gu actually said it was "alright"!

This shocked Xiao Fan!

As expected.

There is always someone better, and there is always a heaven beyond heaven…

"A few dozen, I suppose." Yan Gu thought for a moment and said slowly.

"How many experts are there above the Universe Emperor Realm?" Xiao Fan hesitated for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.

"This… I don't know." Yan Gu shook his head.

"You don't know? Hehe… You're lying to me!" Xiao Fan sneered and stretched his neck.

Seeing this, Yan Gu trembled in fear and said hurriedly, "I'm not lying to you! I really don't know!"

"Hehehe… Why don't you know?!"

"My Realm is not high enough! My status is not high enough! I don't even know what the Realm above the Universe Emperor Realm is! But I know! There must be some!" Yan Gu said hurriedly.

Xiao Fan pondered for a moment, nodded, and continued to ask Yan Gu other questions.

Yan Gu's Realm was not high; it was reasonable that he was unaware of confidential matters.

Yan Gu told him everything he knew, not daring to hide anything from Xiao Fan…

Through Yan Gu, Xiao Fan learned a lot about the Kongchen Holy Land.

Indeed.

Xiao Fan planned to head to this Kongchen Holy Land later.

It was not a vassal of Shengtian Mansion, and its influence was not bad. Cultivating there and seeing how things developed afterward was the best plan for now.

Through Yan Gu, Xiao Fan gained a considerable understanding of the Kongchen Holy Land.

"My Lord! Can you let me go now?!" Yan Gu said pitifully.

"Hehehe… Let you go? I haven't even captured you." Xiao Fan chuckled.
