Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?!

Chapter 548: Chapter 314: 6th Life: Ancient Ancestral Court, Celestial Emperor’s Inheritance! _2

"The world only knows of the Great Abyss Ruins, where Penglai and other Immortal Mountains exist, yet few are aware that our Celestial Emperor Zhuanxu of the Ancient Ancestral Court once lived here for a long time."

Ancient Ancestral Court?

Celestial Emperor Zhuanxu?

Lu Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, sensing that Yu Xiong’s words touched upon certain secrets of the Great Wilderness.

Sure enough.

After Yu Xiong made up his mind, he performed a series of incantations, setting up layers of prohibitions in the cave, and recounted the entire story in one breath.

"Ancient texts say that the Abyss Ruins, known as the Bottomless Valley, is actually a self-contained paradise, and that is where our Ancient Ancestral Court lies."

"Throughout generations, Celestial Emperors and ancient sages have resided here, leaving behind legacies and Dao lineages, making it the last pure land of our Great Wilderness."

"However, after the divine war of ancient times, our clan’s Celestial Emperor fell, and the inheritance was severed. Now, only a few ancient clans know the way to enter the Abyss Ruins."

"But, the Abyss Ruins were also severely damaged back then, almost becoming ruins, and now only a handful of people can enter."

At this point, Yu Xiong paused a moment, as if organizing his thoughts, then continued speaking.

"The fate of the Great Wilderness is exhausted. Even if we can defeat the Great Court Army this time, it is destined to suffer heavy losses of Primordial Energy."

"Not to mention, the Great Court has deities backing them; our chances of defeating them are exceedingly slim."

"Therefore, we plan to send the direct lineage prodigies of various clans to the Abyss Ruins, to preserve the last spark of life for the Great Wilderness."

"I originally planned to send Yu Qi to the Abyss Ruins, but as the contemporary Double Pupil Seer, every move he makes is under immense scrutiny."

"If he suddenly disappears, it would surely arouse the suspicion of the Great Court and others."

"So he cannot go, nor can he leave."

Yu Xiong sighed.

Lu Yuan immediately understood his meaning.

The Abyss Ruins, as the location of the Ancient Ancestral Court, is the only place in the Lower Realm that can evade the surveillance and control of the Heavenly Dao.

If these ancient clans can preserve a trace of their bloodline, there might still be a chance for resurgence in the future.

However, the fragmented Abyss Ruins cannot accommodate too many people.

Yet, everyone has the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm.

Lu Yuan could imagine.

Once this news spreads, it will surely unsettle the military spirit and incite internal conflicts among the clans.

"Yu Qi is the most outstanding prodigy of the Youyu Clan in this generation, but with all eyes on him, he must remain in Great Yu City. Therefore, I wish to offer this place to you."

Yu Xiong looked at Lu Yuan, spoke with earnestness.

It must be said.

Yu Xiong’s proposal was tempting to Lu Yuan.

Now with the Great Court’s heavy troops bearing down.

Anyone with insight can see that the Great Wilderness is merely putting up a desperate resistance, destined to fall someday.

If Lu Yuan could go to the Abyss Ruins, he might be able to use the resources there to grow rapidly.

But if he left like this, what would happen to Great Yu City?

What would happen to the Great Wind Tribe?

And what about the billions of souls in the Great Wilderness?

Lu Yuan, having lived a life of countless battles, was hardly a good person.

But kindness received should be remembered for a millennium.

Until he is truly driven to despair, he would never simply walk away.

Moreover, Heaven never seals off all roads; the outcome of this battle remains uncertain!

"Senior, this kindness is too heavy, and I fear I cannot comply."

"Besides, with the enemy approaching, every citizen of our Great Wilderness has the duty to fight and kill the enemy. Though my power is low, I absolutely won’t desert the battlefront!"

Lu Yuan’s voice was deep as he immediately rejected Yu Xiong’s proposal.

"Good, good, I didn’t expect the young friend to have such awareness. It seems I have been foolish."

"Young friend, go ahead and slay the enemy. If, indeed, it becomes impossible, I will risk my life to protect you!"

Yu Xiong was moved, laughed heartily.

United in opposition against the enemy, fearless in facing danger.

This is the bloodiness that a son of the Great Wilderness should possess!

"Young friend, the old man has other urgent matters to attend to, so I cannot stay long. I shall take leave first."

"Take care, senior."

Yu Xiong still needed to command troops and deploy the array. After exchanging a few words with Lu Yuan, he hurriedly left the cave.

Watching his departing figure, Lu Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Xiong’s visit this time was equivalent to leaving him a way out.

If the Great Wilderness is destined to fall.

Then, he can follow other clan prodigies to the Abyss Ruins when the time comes.

But before that.

He can finally go all out without any worries!

"Heaven’s Will, let me see your limits!"

Lu Yuan’s eyes flickered with curiosity.

What kind of extraordinary results would manifest when he exerted all his might, sparing no cost, and pushed [Heaven’s Will] to its extreme?

Next.

Lu Yuan shut himself in, not distinguishing day from night.

When thirsty, he drank spirit liquid, when hungry, he ate spirit fruit to replenish spiritual power.

Again and again, he constantly used [Heaven’s Will] to strengthen the notion of ’defeating the Great Court Army’ in his heart.

And the threads of cause and effect on his body became increasingly complex and dense.

In the end.

They enveloped him like a cocoon, making every step difficult and even breathing laborious.

But at the same time.

Under the influence of [Heaven’s Will].

Mysteriously.

The originally predestined fate of the Great Wilderness underwent some indescribable change at this moment.

By the You River.

The old man in the raincoat stood at the bow, utterly exhausted.

Yet he still clung tightly to the purple bamboo fishing rod, as if locked in a stalemate with a giant beast in the water.

Suddenly.

The fishing rod in his hand suddenly lightened, as if an invisible hand had assisted him, wrenching a transparent soul of an old man out of the water.

The old man wore a Daoist robe, with white hair and beard, and his features were identical to the Sect Leader of the Celestial Fate Sect!

"I can’t believe I fished out the soul of that old fool, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Fate Sect?"

The old man in the raincoat stared blankly at the old man’s soul on the hook, standing on the boat’s prow, full of bewilderment and confusion, lacking any of the joy a fisherman feels with a catch.

He used cause and effect as his line, and fortune as bait, capable of fishing the divine souls of all beings.

But the Sect Leader of the Celestial Fate Sect was Heaven’s talon, able to reach the heavens, his proficiency in the field of cause and effect surpassing the old man’s own.

Originally, from the previous circumstances, the old man’s defeat was only a matter of time.

Yet he never imagined.

At a critical moment, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Fate Sect would fail at the final hurdle, fished out this way!

Far away, in a majestic Daoist palace within the Great Court Country.

"Heaven’s will has harmed me..."

An old man in a Daoist robe was filled with horror, as if encountering something extremely terrifying.

He exclaimed, blood flowing from his seven orifices, and fell dead on the ground!

Not only that.

In the depths of the Great Wilderness.

The blind old man with the bamboo cane, and the burly man with the large bow on his back, also looked at the sky with grave expressions, as if discovering something extraordinary.

In the Miaojiang Mountains, the headless stone statue that towered into the sky was also covered with cracks, its radiance becoming more brilliant, and its awakening speed significantly increased!

"Who exactly possesses such divinity that they can interfere with the destiny dictated by the Heavenly Dao?"

On the prow of the ship.

The leader of the Tingyuan Sect stood with hands behind his back, exuding a domineering and powerful aura.

But at this instant.

He, usually expressionless with composure even in the face of earth-shaking events, suddenly looked up to the sky, an unprecedented hint of surprise on his face.

Defying heavenly will, going against the natural order.

These eight words seem simple but are incredibly difficult to put into practice.

No matter how powerful an individual is, how can they oppose the vastness of the heavens?

Even someone as powerful as him, whose strength was not inferior to that of the Celestial Deities, in the face of heavenly will, could only resign to fate, not daring to harbor any thoughts of resistance!

As per the original destiny of the Heavenly Dao, the Great Wilderness was doomed to be devastated, certainly defeated.

But now.

This predetermined fate showed a subtle, elusive change, even he could not perceive clearly!

"Interesting, I never expected such a figure to still exist among the remnants of the Great Wilderness."

"I am keen to see whether his methods are brilliant, or Heaven’s will is superior!"

The leader of the Tingyuan Sect revealed a cold smile, the fighting spirit in his eyes growing stronger.

As time passed.

One day, two days, three days...

On the fifth day.

Amidst the anxious waiting of many Qi Refiners, a torrent of black finally appeared outside Great Yu City!
