Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 653 Ancient World (19)

Lin Fan had been resting up after he finished a hunt when there was a sudden flash of light that came from in front of him.

His pets around him immediately raised their guard and stood in front of him to protect

him, but Lin Fan waved his hand for them to back down.

He couldn't sense any hostility from this ball of light and he was curious how someone had been able to track him down this easily.

The ball of light changed forms until it took the form of a little boy floating in the air.

The little boy looked around himself when he appeared and when he saw Lin Fan, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Ignoring all the beasts that were around it, the little boy floated over to Lin Fan who was still sitting.

He floated there in front of Lin Fan as his gaze swept over him, as if he was sizing him up.

After a long pause, the little boy finally said, "Not bad, not bad, I can see why the lords have chosen you."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this.

He could tell from the aura of the little boy that he wasn't a normal little boy and the fact that he had been able to find him this easily couldn't be ignored either. There was most likely a very strong person who was behind this little boy.

But that didn't matter to Lin Fan since he couldn't sense any hostility from the little boy.

It didn't seem like the little boy was here to do anything to him, so he could listen to what the little boy wanted to say.

After muttering to himself for a bit, the little boy said, "Lin Fan, consider yourself lucky. You have been chosen by the lords as one of the main fighters for our universe. Make yourself useful to the lords and lead our universe to victory."

Lin Fan immediately knitted his brows when he heard these words.

It wasn't that he couldn't understand the words, but rather he couldn't understand the meaning of the words.

Of course, the disdainful tone that the little boy had didn't help with his mood.

Still, he was someone who could control his emotions, so he didn't make a big deal out of this.

After a moment of consideration, Lin Fan asked, "Who are you and who are the lords you represent?"

The little boy had a trace of disdain flash in his eyes, but then as if he had suddenly remembered something, he immediately revealed a respectful look.

He gave a bow to Lin Fan before introducing himself, "My name is Puck, I am the messenger of the gods. I have come here today to deliver their will to you."

Lin Fan once again knitted his brows at these words.

Gods.

This was something that he hadn't heard in a long time.

In this world, the realm that was above the mortal cultivation realms was the Immortal Realm, which was equal to the God Realm from his previous world.

He hadn't heard anyone addressing these people as gods other than the mortals who treated the immortals as gods.

But this made him even more curious about why this little boy had appeared in front of him.

After another silence, Lin Fan asked, "Who do they want me to fight?"

The little boy raised his head to look at Lin Fan and seeing the calm look in his eyes, he couldn't help feeling a bit of admiration towards him. The little boy then said, "This universe is being invaded by Outers and we need your help in defeating them."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes before asking, "Why would the powerful gods need to ask for help from a lowly mortal like me?" As he said this, there was a trace of disdain in his voice.

The little boy chose to ignore this as he said, "The Outer Gods will not join the fight as long as our gods do not join the fight, so we have to depend on powerful mortals like you."

As Puck said this, there was a deep look in his eyes.

As the messenger of the gods, he naturally had special abilities and his ability was a special pair of eyes that allowed him to see through the cultivation of people.

With just a single look at Lin Fan, he was able to tell that Lin Fan already had a Divine Seed forming inside of him. As long as enough time passed, Lin Fan would naturally reach the God Realm and become one of the gods.

However, before that, he was still considered a mortal and was allowed to join the fight with the Outers.

Outers.

That was a term that Lin Fan had heard a long time ago back in his previous life.

Now that he was hearing it again, he started connecting the pieces of the puzzle together and he already reached a conclusion about where he was.

But that confused him even more.

What was the point of all of this?

Still, even if he had heard this word before, he still didn't actually know what the word Outers actually represented. After all, there wasn't the concept of this word in this world, so he hadn't been able to ask anyone what it meant.

So Lin Fan asked, "What are the Outers?"

The little boy wasn't surprised by this question at all, so he explained, "The Outers is the term that we use to refer to beings from other universes. They come to our universe to take our resources and that is why we fight them."

Lin Fan could understand this since this was quite the common trope in cultivation novels, but he didn't understand how this was related to him. After all, his system was related to the gods, so they must have called him for something related to the Outers.

Seeing that Lin Fan wasn't saying anything, the little boy continued, "Other than you, we have gathered the other experts of this universe to counter the Outers together. As long as we all work together, we will be able to repel them."

Lin Fan was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard this and he asked, "Other experts? What other experts?"

The little boy had already expected Lin Fan to ask this.

After all, this was a lot to take in and to be asked to fight the unknown Outers, it was natural for people to be worried.

He had already guessed this and knew that to ease Lin Fan's mind, he would need to mention the fact that he wouldn't be fighting alone.

The little boy explained, "Other than you, we have gathered the experts of the humans, the Beast Race, and the other races. This is a fight for survival for our universe, so of course everyone in the universe will have their responsibilities to the universe. That naturally also includes your part."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this and said under his breath, "The other races?"

He didn't know what the final ending of this scenario would be, but it seemed like it was approaching.

Since that was the case, he would follow the role that he was given and play it through to the end.

After muttering this, Lin Fan looked at the little boy and said with a nod, "Alright, I'll fight with you. When is it?"

The little boy was surprised to see Lin Fan agreeing this easily, but he didn't find it strange at all. This was a fight that involved the fate of the entire universe, someone as smart as Lin Fan wouldn't be unable to see this.

There was no way for Lin Fan to avoid the invasion of the Outers and the destruction of the universe if they lost, so he would choose to fight with them to give himself the best chance of surviving.

The little boy gave a nod of appreciation before saying, "The battle will be in a few days, but we have already started gathering the warriors for the battle. If you follow me, I'll bring you to the gathering spot right now."

Lin Fan didn't hesitate as he gave a nod in response to this.

After that, he called his pets into his pet storage space before following the little boy into a portal that he created.

There was a bright flash of light the moment that he walked into the portal, but then it quickly disappeared as he reappeared in a new place.

This new place seemed like it was just an asteroid that was floating through space, but it was also a place that seemed like it was frozen in space.

All around the area where he appeared, there were experts of different races that were gathered around. However, all of them were standing with people of the same race as them. Not a single one of them approached an expert of a different race.

But based on the aura that came from them, Lin Fan could tell that they were all peak experts that were just a bit weaker than he was.

The people that were there saw Lin Fan appear, but no one was surprised to see him.

After seeing that it was another human that appeared, someone from the human expert group came over to say, "Hey, brother, come with me."

Lin Fan looked around at the various experts before following this person without a single word.

When the human experts saw Lin Fan approach, they were surprised at first since they didn't recognize who he was.

But then there was one of them that revealed a look of shock as he said, "Demon Lord!"
