Zhou Fan flew just outside of the Zhou Galaxy. As he looked inside, a serious expression could be seen on his face.
"People are getting very strong. Even now, it would not be impossible to destroy the Zhou Galaxy, especially if they all teamed up." Zhou Fan said to himself.
Although they were not at his level when he was in the lesser dao creation realm, it was not impossible for a group of the lesser dao creation realm cultivators to destroy the Zhou Galaxy.
Of course, that was only if someone like Ying Xiong or Jack did not interfere.
The issue was that it was even possible. Although the galaxy had increased in size, it was still possible, although it may take a while.
To Zhou Fan, this warranted concern.
"This is the place where I was born. I cannot let it be destroyed too easily." He said to himself.
Even if the amount of lesser dao creation realm cultivators was low and there were people like Jack and Ying Xiong defending it, the future would be different.
What if, a long time in the future, a bunch of evil cultivators decided to combine their power and destroy, at the very least, a part of the galaxy.
It was simply not a good idea to let such a risk exist.
Although Zhou Fan may not care if there was the possibility in other galaxies, the Zhou Galaxy was named after him. It also contained earth, as well as the history of many of the people he knew.
Zhou Fan decided to put in a small counter measure. He waved his hand, and a humanoid figure appeared in front of him. It was a random cultivator from one of the many places in the Zhou Galaxy. He had no talent or motivation, and as far as Zhou Fan was concerned, no importance.
The man wanted to speak, but he was not even in the nascent soul realm. The space around him almost instantly killed him, although Zhou Fan interfered.
The man tried to speak again, but all of his memories were wiped in an instant. Essentially, he was dead.
Zhou Fan began to change the man's mind. Soon, the equivalent of a robot was in front of him. Zhou Fan elevated the man's strength to the peak of the inner world realm.
As the man's body was an insufficient material, it could not go any higher than that without augmentations, but it did not need to go any higher.
Zhou Fan placed the man above the galaxy and gave a powerful spear, along with a single directive.
"In the case that a person or group of people attempt to cause major destruction in the Zhou Galaxy, warn them, or eliminate them."
The man nodded and stood his post. With the amount of Qi he had, as long as he spent most of his time standing still, he would last nearly a trillion years. Of course, that was both because he could somewhat absorb Qi, and could also not be considered alive and therefore did not have a lifespan.
Zhou Fan soon left the Zhou Galaxy in a certain direction.
Unknown to him as he left, the random appearance of an imposing looking man standing still above the galaxy garnered the interest of many. Almost every single lesser dao creation realm cultivator appeared, and a few in the space shattering realm arrived at the top of the galaxy.
The man, who was dressed in an imposing robe with a mask, was just outside of the galaxy, while those who arrived were just inside it.
Soon, even Ying Xiong arrived.
At his arrival, everyone turned to him. He looked at the man, and immediately guessed the situation.
"I would recommend that we stay away from this. It doesn't seem alive, and it likely has no ill intentions for us. In fact, it may have even been placed here to help." Ying Xiong said to the crowd.
Most of the people there nodded and agreed with his words, but there were always a few that did not.
Among the few lesser dao creation realm cultivators that followed the demonic path, one stepped out and spoke.
"You're just saying that in order to take whatever opportunity that thing is for yourself. If your words are true, then why don't I go over and test the water?" The man asked.
"So even the darkness "immortal" has come." Ying Xiong mocked.
Like Zhou Fan, he too looked down upon those that dared to call themselves immortals.
"Please, by all means, go mess around and find out." Ying Xiong chuckled.
The darkness immortal seemed confused at his words, as if they were unexpected, but soon decided to move towards the man.
Although lesser dao creation realm cultivators could theoretically leave the galaxy, they rarely did so.
Not only was there no destination that they could realistically reach without many years of travel, but that feeling that space gave off outside of the galaxy was cold and desolate.
Most importantly, they could not use or absorb Qi from the surroundings.
Even demonic cultivators hesitated to leave under normal circumstances.
Perhaps only someone like Zhou Fan could leave the galaxy at the lesser dao creation realm without feeling a change.
The man left the galaxy and flew up to the man.
"Hey! Are you alive, or are you just some corpse?" The man asked.
After getting no response, the man assumed that the standing man was not alive.
He walked up to him, but as he looked in the man's helmet, a pair of red eyes met his. The demonic cultivator took a step back out of shock, but soon realized that the man appeared alive.
"Hey! You think you can just ignore me!" The man shouted.
Water Qi and Darkness Qi appeared in his hand, forming a wave of dark water.
"Pay for your disrespect!" The man shouted as he waved his hand and a giant wave of dark water appeared in space and quickly hit the man from the side.
The spear-wielding man stayed still even as the wave covered him and moved through the space.
