Lu Yuan looked at the two of them, a flicker of excitement flashing through his eyes.
If he could use the power of the Other Shore Calamity to assault the Primordial Dao Fruit—
And trigger the Fate Rule Net's backlash, tearing open a rift and seizing the fortune within—
Then not only would Rahula and Taiyi benefit, but he too could plunder that fortune.
Lu Yuan sat upright upon a bed of chaos clouds, his azure robes stirring without wind.
Facing the expectations of two Hunyuan Masters, his expression was calm as still water, unfathomably deep.
"Good." Lu Yuan's voice was even, resounding through the Profound Abyss Heavenly Palace.
"The time has been set; all that remains is for the calamity to reach its blazing peak.
The two of you should return and make your preparations.
The Fate Faction's counterattack will surely be even more brutal. This is the final contest before the decisive battle.
When wails of misery blanket the Other Shore and the universe's origin trembles, that will be the moment for us... to break the net and seize the Dao!"
As his words fell, he said no more.
The demonic flames around Rahula contracted, and his figure turned into a streak of demonic trace that vanished in an instant.
Taiyi gave Lu Yuan a deep look. His golden robes billowed as he transformed into a majestic, blazing Golden Rainbow that pierced through Dao Xuan Heaven.
The Dao charm of supreme yang spread outward, dispersing the lingering demonic qi.
The Profound Abyss Heavenly Palace returned to silence, with Lu Yuan alone seated quietly upon the cloud bed.
Within the celebratory cloud above his head, the Tribulation Fortune Dao Fruit slowly revolved, absorbing the unending origin of tribulation fortune from Dao Xuan Heaven, growing ever denser and more solid.
