The First Cultivator - Changing Existence

Zhou Fan soon deactivated his Immortal Domain, allowing the nothingness to once again be completely empty, save for the Main Universe and the Universes he had created with Leaf.

He returned to the Universe, and after a while, brought Leaf to all of the Universes they had created, gathering the green power that the Mother Trees had produced over so many Sage Years. The amount was immense, and Leaf was clearly happy.

They also took the time to look at all of the other beings within the Universes.

In the first Universe they had created, plants were still the number one form of life. But there were also humanoid beings made up of plants. While they were generally more intelligent than normal plants, there were far fewer of them.

They weren't even qualified to stay on the branches of the Mother Tree, instead living on one of the planets. In almost all Universes with a Mother Tree, the most powerful beings and organizations would live on the Mother Tree. Only those far weaker would stay elsewhere.

There were also different spots on the Mother Tree that represented the different levels of power.

The crown of the Mother Tree was inhabited by the absolute strongest. In this Universe, that was a Loose Immortal apple tree. Zhou Fan was tempted to try an apple, but decided against it. The being believed that it was at the peak of all existence, and letting it know that it was simply in a tiny Universe with no way to leave was not good for it.

The Mother Tree itself was at the Earth Immortal realm, where it was stuck until Leaf advanced.

After all, a follower of a path could not surpass the Path Creator. And the Mother Tree, which was more or less a subordinate of Leaf, had no intention of creating its own path. After all, there were also Path Creators in this Universe, but of all the paths she had seen, only cultivation could compare to her path. And to her, her path was even better than cultivation, though that was mostly due to the fact that Leaf's power was suited to plants.

Leaf really was a unique specimen. Despite still following the Path of Cultivation, he had created another path and allowed others to cultivate using it. Even Zhou Fan had never seen something like it.

Leaf collected the power that the Mother Tree had produced over the Years, a substantial amount, before they left. When the Mother Tree felt that sensation, she bowed deeply, shocking the Universe.

But by the time that happened, they were off to the next one.

The next Universe was filled with beings of flesh and blood, the majority humanoid. It looked a lot like the Main Universe. However, there was a distinct lack of humans. In fact, when Zhou Fan looked around, he could only find ten.

Each of them were deeply hidden among beings of other races, not willing to reveal their identities at any cost. That was because in this Universe, humans had been hunted to near extinction. They had once stood at the top, free and arrogant. However, when the kings of three other humanoid races, Elves, Demons, and Shadowmen, had entered the same realm as the leader of humanity at the time, a False Immortal realm cultivator, the entire Universe had attacked humanity under their lead. The humans, powerful as they were, did not go down easily.

But their defeat was destined.

As they fought back with their lives, 100 humans were sent out secretly.

Using various methods, these beings had been implanted into other races, their memories temporarily sealed.

Only when they fully matured did they regain their memories and understand what had happened.

Humanity had been completely destroyed. Not even mortals were spared. All were massacred. There weren't even prisoners.

Sage Years passed, and some humans had been found out. In total, 20 had remained when the rest of the Universe believed they had taken all of them out.

Some died due to lifespan issues, some were simply killed in battle without it being revealed they were human, and some had children.

They made sure that these children understood the history and greatness of humanity, which had gone well, but one human revealed the truth under torture after being discovered.

When a massacre was carried out, only ten humans remained. Some had been raised by the humans sent out, while a few had been alive since the peak of humanity. Slowly but surely, they were trying to bring back humanity and take over the Universe once again.

But the odds of success were low.

Zhou Fan did not bother using the power of Divination. The whole situation hardly involved him at all.

At most, he was curious to see the results of the struggle. Leaf and him went around a few more Universes, collecting the green power. It wasn't until the 34th Universe where they found another interesting situation. This being had an equal 33%, 33%, and 33% split between humanoids, beasts, and plants.

Yet unlike most Universes, this one was distinctly split between two sides.

One was the living, and one was the undead.

A Path Creator known as the Zombie King had taken over half of the Universe, all of his servants being beings he had "revived" from the dead.

He had absolute control, and absolute loyalty. Yet despite all of the living beings in the Universe banding together to fight against him, he was still on the winning end.

The leader of the living side was a human known to many simply as the Goddess. She wasn't exactly the equal of the Zombie King, but with the King of Beasts and the Flower Goddess fighting alongside her, they were able to draw out a stalemate, even if they were on the losing end.

Most notably, the Goddess was at the Earth Immortal realm, while the King of Beasts and the Flower Goddess were at the Loose Immortal realm.

But the Zombie King was at the False Immortal realm.

His talent was unparalleled within this Universe.
