Chapter 469. The Plan, the Eternal Warship
Lu Yuan did not know what the Jiang Clan's patriarch would say but he understood that it was definitely no simple matter.
"I will inform the clan of your stance. I believe they will support it as well," Jiang Ningxian spoke again, referring to the matter of joining forces with the various races.
The Jiang Clan attached great importance to this. It involved a great deal. And since her father basically did not concern himself with such matters, many decisions were usually made by the clan.
She felt that what Lu Yuan had said earlier made a great deal of sense. There was no need to waste time joining forces with all sides.
Those who truly had good relations with the Jiang Clan and were willing to stand with them would not need such efforts.
"Good." Lu Yuan only nodded and said nothing more.
Whatever the Jiang Clan chose to do, he would not oppose it.
Although they were allies, they still had their own autonomy.
Just as before, the Jiang Clan had never interfered in the Celestial Court's affairs. From beginning to end, they had only offered suggestions.
Afterward, the three chatted for some time before parting ways.
Jiang Haokong remained listless the entire time. There was no helping it. He had indeed been struck down. He felt that surpassing Lu Yuan was probably impossible.
Fortunately, Jiang Haokong had already accepted every possibility before this. After digesting it briefly, he felt it was not a big deal.
Lu Yuan once again went to check the Celestial Court members' cultivation during this period.
Ever since he gathered the Nine Cauldrons and fused with the fifth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token, the power of Providence under his control had grown greater and greater.
His intention was simple. He wanted to use it to lend them a hand.
Still, no one had reached the Immortal Realm.
That was within his expectations.
However, there were more and more Sages. This meant that the Celestial Court's mid-level battle strength was growing stronger.
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and did not consider conferring more titles.
Indeed, the stronger the Celestial Court was, the easier it would be to handle future crises. But that would also bring up another problem.
From the beginning until now, the Celestial Court had been given far too little time to develop.
They only had a few years.
Other starfields had accumulated their foundations over a very long span of time.
Simply put, the Celestial Court's accumulation was still lacking. Thus, sometimes, slowing down a little would clearly be better.
Whatever moves the Eternals and the Ji Clan made, he did not need to worry about them for the moment.
So Lu Yuan entered seclusion once more, hoping to reach the Creation Immortal Realm one step sooner.
In the outside world, ever since learning that the foundations of the two forces were about to descend, almost all Outer Cosmos beings had grown tense.
Because they did not know what the two forces' objective was.
Even for the Great Age's Providence, was there a need to bring out their true foundations?
With them present, how many people could possibly be their match?
Even though the power of the Separation of Heaven and Earth had completely dissipated, those who had descended were still Grotto-Heaven Immortals at most.
There had not been stronger Creation Immortals.
Such existences were truly too powerful. Among some great starfield clans, they were actual trump cards and naturally would not be moved lightly.
But the Eternals and the Ji Clan were completely different.
These two forces ranked among the top ten in the universe. Forget Creation Immortals; they even had Celestial Seat Immortals.
And now, according to the information everyone had obtained, even Celestial Seat Immortals had come to the Milky Way Starfield.
If they acted, who could withstand them?
Only existences from the same top-ten starfields could do so.
The problem was that aside from the Jiang Clan, almost all the great clans were choosing to watch from the sidelines.
Because of this, when the two forces expressed that they wanted to join forces with all sides, many Outer Cosmos beings immediately responded.
They did not want to become enemies with forces like the Ji Clan and the Eternals. If they joined the alliance, they would not have to face that risk.
In a short period of time, the alliance invitation issued by the two forces actually received responses from more than half of the Outer Cosmos beings.
Of course, this only referred to those who had descended to the Milky Way Starfield.
It did not refer to the entire universe.
Meanwhile, the Jiang Clan seemed to have accepted Lu Yuan's suggestion and did not actively seek out an alliance with others.
It was the same principle as before: remain steady, no matter how the situation changed.
At the same time, in the starry sky beyond the Milky Way Starfield, majestic auras surged.
Great stars revolved one after another, shooting out dazzling light.
Among them, a massive galactic warship appeared.
It was majestic, comparable to some small stars. It drifted through the universe, and wherever it went, anything it struck, whether small meteorite or star, exploded outright.
This enormous galactic warship constantly emitted an overwhelmingly powerful aura.
"The Eternal Warship truly lives up to its reputation," a voice rang out.
The speaker wore black and belonged to the Ji Clan.
His aura surged around him in vast, layered waves, already surpassing Creation Immortal and reaching Celestial Seat Immortal.
Yet even with such a powerful realm and cultivation, he was still startled after seeing the warship.
"The Eternal Warship was forged with the full resources of my Eternals. There are only three in total. Its might is boundless. If a Starfield Lord personally used it, destroying a small galaxy would not be difficult," another person replied. He was a Celestial Seat Immortal from the Eternals.
The people of the two forces were also aboard this warship.
Every one of them was above the Immortal Realm.
This was the foundation mentioned in the Jiang Clan's information.
The weakest were Undying Immortals, while the strongest had already reached the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm, second only to Starfield Lords.
This Eternal Warship had also been built by the Eternals with tremendous effort.
The Eternal Starfield produced all kinds of divine gold. A warship forged from such materials was naturally terrifying.
Its hardness alone could destroy stars.
"Our patriarch has already said that he hopes, when the time comes, we can completely seal off the Milky Way Starfield so outsiders can no longer enter. Only then can the plan be carried out more smoothly. Of course, at the same time, we will also deal with that person called Lu Yuan," the Ji Clan's Celestial Seat Immortal said.
He held a high standing within the clan and was called Second Ancestor.
Originally, with their strength, descending to the Milky Way Starfield would not require much time.
However, in order to ensure absolute success, they had been making preparations beforehand.
Joining forces with the lifeforms of the various starfields was also part of the plan.
Of course, whether it was the Eternals or the Ji Clan, neither had forgotten Lu Yuan.
That enemy who had killed multiple clansmen, and even their Holy Sons.
This time, they had also received an order. If there was an opportunity, they should kill him outright.
If it proved difficult, they could notify the Starfield Lords. When the time came, the Starfield Lords would act personally.
Everyone could now see that Lu Yuan's rise was truly too fast. Grotto-Heaven Immortals and Creation Immortals had both been killed by him.
The two forces had to take him seriously now.
In truth, if not for the need to carry out that plan, the Starfield Lords would have acted long ago.
Clearly, compared to Lu Yuan, the matter they were pursuing in secret was far more important.
