Li Fan himself was only at the Nascent Soul Transformation Realm.
However, since the initial development and promotion in the Spirit Tree Realm, he incessantly used [Array Refining] to deepen his control over this Small World.
Today, after accepting and integrating other Small Worlds like the Empire, the Spirit Tree Realm had grown not much smaller than the [Realm of Immortal Cultivation] in the general sense of ancient times.
And Li Fan, this "Nascent Soul Monk," still firmly maintained control over the Spirit Tree Realm.
To him, it was like a refined Magic Treasure; the creation and destruction of worlds were merely in a thought.
In a sense, with this absolute control over the world, he was truly the [Spirit Tree Heavenly Sovereign].
With such a comparison, one could well understand what kind of existence the Great Supreme Lord Xuan Huang was.
It's just that Li Fan obtained control by exploiting loopholes when the world was still weak.
