Five Supreme Powers!

Having learned that the Lu Clan had not been destroyed, Lu Yuan was in an excellent mood.

The Chief God nodded. "That's good. By the way, while investigating just now, I sensed a transmission in the Void Fissure. It should have been left for you by the Lu Ancestor. Would you like to hear it?"

"Of course." Lu Yuan nodded.

Soon, an aged voice echoed in Lu Yuan's mind.

"Yuan'er, this ancestor was useless and failed to protect the family. I could only choose self-exile to preserve the Lu Clan's direct and main bloodlines. Don't worry. Your father and mother are both safe and sound. However, after we leave, the Lu Clan's remaining collateral descendants, as well as its direct descendants scattered outside, will surely be hunted down. This burden will fall to you. But remember, your own safety comes first. Within ten thousand years, we will surely return."

Upon hearing the transmission, Lu Yuan felt both dejected and overjoyed, and for a moment, he was speechless.

Shaking his head, Lu Yuan left this starry sky.

Just after Lu Yuan departed,

a terrifying, majestic will covered the entire starry sky. Countless planets were unable to withstand its horrifying pressure and exploded.

For a moment, the entire starry sky shook, the galaxies churned, and the star systems shifted.

The will's owner said coldly, "You destroyed my Immortal Court and still want to kill me? Chief God, aren't you being a little too arrogant?"

"Oh, isn't this the Immortal Lord? We haven't seen each other for a few days, and you've fallen even further." A Chief God spoke teasingly, completely unafraid of this terrifying hegemon who ruled the Cosmic Heavens.

The Immortal Lord's face turned pale, then green. At his level of cultivation, he should have been able to remain unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him. However, faced with humiliation from an equal, he still found it difficult to restrain himself.

"Enough. You don't need to keep talking nonsense. There's no need for all nine of us to act. I alone will do. How about we fight one-on-one?"

A Chief God spoke domineeringly, challenging the Immortal Lord to a one-on-one battle.

The Chief God had one body and nine faces. The nine were one entity, yet they could be considered one person or nine people. However, every Chief God possessed Origin Realm strength. Once the nine became one, their combat power was enough to make every Heavens Hegemon tremble.

"You! You!"

The Immortal Lord's face flushed with anger. Yet, facing these nine infamous ruffian bosses of the Cosmic Heavens, he could do nothing. In the end, he could only retreat.

Or rather, the time was not yet right.

After the Immortal Lord left,

the nine Chief Gods began talking to themselves.

"You really aren't going to tell little Lu Yuan where the Lu Clan went?"

"There's no need. That world is strange and mysterious, with fortune and disaster intertwined. Perhaps the Lu Clan will undergo a transformation there."

"Little Lu Yuan's life has been far too smooth. He was born into the top family of his world, and his family always protected its own. His innate talent is also among the best of his era. Every Break Limit he achieved was extraordinary, and his opportunities have been astonishing. Not only was he chosen by us as the Tenth Main God, but he also has an indistinct relationship with the Chief Judge of the Dark Arbitration Court. There's even less need to mention his other identities. In short, a cultivation path that is too smooth isn't a good thing. Experiencing some setbacks is always beneficial."

"If this hadn't happened, I had planned to make little Lu Yuan's Three Demonic Physiques fully erupt after some time, making him the enemy of the entire world."

"Wow, you're awful. Be careful, little Lu Yuan won't let you off."

"But speaking of which, even we didn't expect that this Lu Clan was actually a remnant of that power from back then. The Immortal Lord seems to have defected from that power in the past."

"Enough. Stop talking. We'll just observe how things develop."

Returning to consciousness, Lu Yuan let out a long breath.

Although the Lu Clan had been forced into self-exile, fortunately, the situation was not too serious. As far as Lu Yuan was concerned, whether he had the Lu Clan's backing or not was irrelevant. He himself was his own support.

Lu Yuan still had feelings for the Lu Clan. First, his biological parents were still alive. Second, the Lu Clan fiercely protected its own. Almost from the moment he was born, Lu Yuan had enjoyed boundless affection and had never suffered a grievance.

Lu Yuan had also lived up to everyone's expectations. Relying on his heaven-defying talent, he had become the brightest rising star on the Dark Continent.

Family and blood ties were things that could never be easily abandoned, no matter what.

In the end, Lu Yuan had never suffered a grievance and had never been betrayed by his family. Naturally, he would not treat familial affection with indifference.

Moreover, his Demon Body had ultimately not erupted. For now, Lu Yuan was still a man of flesh and blood, rather than someone who had truly lost all emotion.

After calming himself, Lu Yuan began to think.

The Lu Clan was gone, but as many as ten million collateral descendants of the Lu Clan were still alive.

As the Lu Clan's Eldest Son, Lu Yuan had both the obligation and the responsibility to protect them.

Of course, the prerequisite was that he could find them.

Five months ago, the Lu Clan had disappeared. At first, the various powers of the Dark Continent had acted cautiously. But once they confirmed that the Lu Clan had truly vanished, human nature was exposed.

The powers hostile to the Lu Clan, the powers that had depended on the Lu Clan, and even the experts who had submitted to the Lu Clan all began hunting down and even massacring the Lu Clan's collateral descendants without restraint.

Besides the collateral descendants, Lu Yuan also had some direct descendants like Lu Changming and Lu Changyue scattered outside.

Lu Yuan's current goal was to find them, protect them, and avenge them!

However, before searching on a large scale for the Lu Clan's surviving members, Lu Yuan still needed to do one thing: find a backer and secure a power capable of protecting the Lu Clan's people.

That would also allow Lu Yuan to avenge the clan without restraint.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan continued pondering.

The power that had destroyed the Lu Clan was the Supreme Power, the Dark Immortal Hall. The Immortal Dao Lineage could be ruled out immediately. If he wanted protection, he had to find a power on the same level as the Dark Immortal Hall that was not afraid of it.

The Dark Continent had five Supreme Powers: Qingling Star Travel, Master Hall, Haotian Academy, Dark Immortal Hall, and Demon God Hall.

Dark Continent · Qingling Star Travel was a branch of Qingling Star Travel from the Qingling Realm Domain. It was an organization similar to a bank combined with a merchant association. It was extremely wealthy and extremely powerful, so it could be considered.

Dark Continent · Master Hall was a branch of the Master Hall from the Primordial Great Realm. All Dominators born in the Primordial Great Realm had to register with Master Hall. At the same time, Master Hall was nominally the strongest power in the Primordial Great Realm, so it could be considered.

Dark Continent · Haotian Academy was an advanced academy under the Taiyuan Divine Court, a place specifically established to cultivate prodigies for the Taiyuan Divine Court. All its instructors came from the Taiyuan Divine Court's headquarters. Due to its special nature, it could not be considered.

The Dark Immortal Hall could not be considered.

Dark Continent · Demon God Hall was a Demon Race power, so it could not be considered.

"So, only Qingling Star Travel and Master Hall can provide protection. However, the Dark Immortal Hall has the Immortal Court behind it, while Master Hall only has the Primordial Great Realm behind it. They might not be willing to provide protection. Qingling Star Travel is somewhat more likely."

Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, and he sighed inwardly. The so-called cultivation world was actually also a place where connections and backers mattered.

"I'll first go to Qingling Star Travel and test the waters. If that doesn't work, I'll go to Master Hall. If neither works, I can only send them to my mother's maternal clan."

Lu Yuan sighed softly. His mother's maternal clan was not on the Dark Continent but on the Bright Continent, and the two continents were hostile to each other.

The distance was too great, and their relationship was not good, so Lu Yuan had not considered it first.

But if none of these options worked, a sharp glint flashed through Lu Yuan's eyes. He could only use a connection he absolutely did not want to reveal to the public.
