Supreme Divine Weapon

Lu Yuan sat in silence for a long while before finally pulling himself together. As he looked at the expired tasks and their rewards on the system page, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"Actually, you're pretty good. There's no need to feel inferior at all," Lu Yuan said tentatively.

The next moment, a meme inexplicably popped into his mind.

Sign-in System: "(?´?`?)??"

Lu Yuan: "..."

Even someone as composed as Lu Yuan fell silent at that moment.

Shaking his head, Lu Yuan turned his attention to the latest sign-in task.

[Sign-in Task: Please go to the Divine Martial Heavenly Ruins to sign in.]

[Sign-in successful. Reward: Ten-Thousand-Mark Supreme Divine Weapon · Ancient Abyss Divine Sword.]

"Ten-Thousand-Mark Supreme Divine Weapon!"

Lu Yuan's pupils contracted. He was clearly stunned.

A Supreme Divine Weapon was a rank above Saint Artifacts, and at this level, there were no longer distinctions like low, mid, or high grade.

What determined the power of a Supreme Divine Weapon was primarily the number of Law Imprints on it.

Generally, there were grades of ten marks, hundred marks, thousand marks, ten-thousand marks, hundred-thousand marks, and million marks. As for ten-million marks, even Lu Yuan had never heard of it.

This was because only beings at the Immortal Realm and above could imprint laws onto a Supreme Divine Weapon, and they could only imprint one law per year.

In other words, to forge a Ten-Thousand-Mark Supreme Divine Weapon, an Immortal Realm expert would have to do nothing but imprint laws for at least ten thousand years, without eating, drinking, or doing anything else.

The difficulty and rarity of such a weapon's creation were easy to imagine.

In the world, things always followed the principle of yin and yang balance.

The greater the difficulty of creation, the higher the value of the item.

Within the same realm, many factors influenced a person's combat power.

Physique, techniques, Break Limit, and external tools were all factors.

Currently, Lu Yuan's cultivation was at Heavenly Saint Perfection, with four layers of Break Limit.

Below the Great Heavenly Saint realm, he was basically invincible. Above the Great Heavenly Saint realm, those who hadn't broken limits were no match for him in a single move. Only those with two or three layers of Break Limit could exchange blows with him.

In other words, under normal conditions, Lu Yuan's peak combat power could rival a Great Heavenly Saint with three layers of Break Limit, but he couldn't defeat one with four layers.

However, if Lu Yuan activated his Demon Body, his combat power would multiply, allowing him to even contend with an ordinary Heavenly Venerate.

But this was very dangerous. The Dark Continent was not like the Tianxiao Continent. Once he activated his Demon Body, all witnesses would have to die.

This was without relying on external tools.

If he did rely on external tools—for example, if Lu Yuan wielded a Ten-Thousand-Mark Supreme Divine Weapon—he could claim invincibility against anyone below the Heavenly Venerate realm!

As for the possibility that others might also have a Ten-Thousand-Mark Divine Weapon?

It existed.

But the probability was low.

Because Ten-Thousand-Mark Divine Weapons were generally only qualified to be owned by beings at the Dominator Level.

Anyone below the Dominator Level who possessed one would attract covetous eyes.

On his trip to the Divine Martial Heavenly Ruins, if Lu Yuan had a Ten-Thousand-Mark Divine Weapon, almost no one would be his match.

But if he didn't, the situation was still somewhat uncertain.

After all, not everyone was like Lu Yuan, who pursued breaking limits to become the Supreme of the Cosmos at every realm.

Some Peerless Prodigies only broke through two or three layers of limits before choosing to advance to the next realm.

So, in the upcoming Divine Martial Heavenly Ruins, it was very possible that there would be Great Heavenly Saints with three or even four layers of Break Limit, or even the extremely rare Supreme Heavenly Saints.

Putting away his thoughts, Lu Yuan closed the system, having already decided that he must complete this sign-in task and obtain the divine weapon.

Currently, Lu Yuan didn't have any Supreme Divine Weapon on him, only two Extreme Dao Saint Artifacts.

What was an Extreme Dao Saint Artifact?

Above the top-grade Saint Artifact, a Saint Artifact that already had Law Imprints of fewer than ten marks was called an Extreme Dao Saint Artifact.

So even Lu Yuan was extremely eager for a Supreme Divine Weapon, let alone a Ten-Thousand-Mark one.

Early the next morning.

On an empty plot of land within the estate, many people had already gathered.

Yesterday, Lu Yuan had killed a chicken to scare the monkeys, intimidating everyone so that no one dared to defy his orders anymore.

Originally, the Lu family had five Great Heavenly Saints and thirty-five Heavenly Saints.

But after Lu Yuan killed one Great Heavenly Saint and one Heavenly Saint yesterday, and expelled one Great Heavenly Saint and four Heavenly Saints, the Lu family now only had three Great Heavenly Saints and thirty Heavenly Saints.

At this moment, everyone was gathered on the square. No one spoke; they all waited in silence.

When the Lu family still stood, they controlled five domains, with varying amounts of holdings scattered across others.

Those holdings included alchemy pavilions, artifact forging pavilions, spirit medicine gardens, Star Source Crystal mines, and the like.

In Qingling City and its surrounding areas, the Lu family had seven such holdings in total.

They were one small Star Source Crystal mine, one medium Star Source Crystal mine, one alchemy pavilion, one artifact forging pavilion, one large spirit medicine garden, one Beast Taming Garden, and the Lu Family Grand Restaurant.

These seven holdings generated over a hundred million Star Source Crystals in annual revenue for the Lu family.

But after the Lu family fell, all these holdings were seized by various powers.

Among those powers were the Heavenly Venerate Sect, the Glorious Great Sect, and the Immortal Dao Lineage.

Inside a room of the manor.

Lu Yuan looked at the documents in his hands, his brow slightly furrowed.

"Two mines taken by the Immortal Dao Lineage's Blissful Heavenly Palace, the alchemy and artifact pavilions taken by the Heavenly Venerate Sect's Heavenly Pill Hall, and the other three holdings seized by three families within Qingling City. Interesting. They split it up quite evenly."

Lu Changming stood across from Lu Yuan, his voice brimming with excitement. "Brother Yuan, who do we strike first?"

Lu Yuan lifted his head and glanced at Lu Changming, then smiled. "Why ask who to strike first? Can't we strike them all at once?"

"Ah!" Lu Changming's eyes went wide, worry creeping into his voice. "But with our current strength, we shouldn't be able to take on so many at once, right?"

Lu Yuan smiled without answering, then said, "Just follow my lead. Three Great Heavenly Saints and thirty Heavenly Saints will each go after the three families in Qingling City. Leave the rest to me."

"Then what's our end goal? Just take back what's ours, or..." Lu Changming's eyes flickered.

"Exterminate the clan!"

Lu Yuan's voice was ironclad. "They dared to touch what belongs to the Lu family. If we don't wipe them out, how can we show the world?"

"As for the Blissful Heavenly Palace and the Heavenly Pill Hall, they will be uprooted as well!"

Lu Yuan's killing intent was chilling. What did it matter if they were an Immortal Dao Lineage or a Heavenly Venerate Sect? Under the rules of the Supreme Domain, Lu Yuan feared no one.

Lu Changming felt a shiver run through him. He understood—this was Lu Yuan proving with blood that even though the Lu family was gone, he, Lu Yuan, could still hold up the family's sky.

"Enough. Go prepare."

Lu Yuan waved his hand.

"Yes, Brother Yuan."

After Lu Changming left.

Lu Yuan looked toward the corner of the room and smiled. "The esteemed Young Master of Qingling Star Travel, sneaking around in corners instead of using the door—aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Qing Wuji strolled out from the corner at a leisurely pace, smiling. "Let the world say what it wants. What do I care? The question is, are you sure you want to make such a big scene?"

"You can ignore those three families, but the Blissful Heavenly Palace is no small force. Aren't you afraid of their retaliation?"

Qing Wuji walked over and sat down across from Lu Yuan, his demeanor elegant, a gentle smile on his face.
