Chapter 502. News, Strength Advances Again, Bottleneck
Traces of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had been discovered in the Outer Cosmos. A great battle had already broken out.
Previously, the Jiang Clan had always been guarding against this calamity.
Back then, the Jiang Clan's Starfield Lord had remained in the Outer Cosmos all this time precisely because he had been making all kinds of preparations for this.
Earth had Lu Yuan and the Celestial Court. Even if the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons appeared there, they could immediately react.
But the universe was too vast, so the Jiang Clan's Starfield Lord could only move among various regions. Now, he had finally found traces of them and confirmed their existence. Naturally, he did not hesitate at all. He summoned some experts of the Jiang Clan to head over and chose to fight them.
Beyond that, there were also experts of other clans.
Jiang Taiyu's message was simple.
They had discovered traces of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, so he was gathering every strength available.
This was especially true for Jiang Ningxian and Jiang Haokong. For the siblings, this battlefield was a chance to temper themselves and grow through real combat.
Of course, another point was that no one would take the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons lightly, not even Starfield Lords.
Moreover, Jiang Taiyu had another thought in mind. He hoped Lu Yuan could go as well. That was why he had someone send this message.
Jiang Huanyun also strongly supported this. He believed that the war against the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons could not lack Lu Yuan.
To him, Lu Yuan was no longer merely some junior. He was a true powerhouse in every sense, someone capable of influencing the situation of the entire universe.
Under such circumstances, Jiang Huanyun naturally hoped that Lu Yuan would go as well. Of course, he could only hope as Lu Yuan would have the autonomy to make his own decisions.
So after Jiang Huanyun finished conveying the message, the Jiang clansmen beside him all turned their gazes toward Jiang Ningxian.
No one was more suited than the Saintess to speak of such a matter. Even Jiang Haokong shared the same thought.
Jiang Ningxian pondered for a brief moment before saying, "I can go speak to him, but I cannot influence whatever decision Lu Yuan makes."
To Jiang Ningxian, if he could head into space with her, that would naturally be something worth being happy about.
She had stayed on Earth for a long time and had come to understand Lu Yuan mutually. If she left just like this, she would indeed feel many reluctances in her heart.
Deep inside, Jiang Ningxian wanted him to agree. But as she had just said, this was not something she could influence. She also understood and supported every decision Lu Yuan made.
The Jiang clansmen beside her nodded. Naturally, they had no objections to this. If Lu Yuan chose not to go, they would not force him either
Afterward, everyone said nothing more, and Jiang Ningxian left.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was still in seclusion, fusing with the seventh Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token.
Of course, after such a long time, the fusion had already reached its final stage.
At this very moment, he sat cross-legged inside his room. Around him, rays of light flickered and endless rosy light filled the room, as an indescribably majestic aura emanated from him.
Lu Yuan had already completely accepted the source of the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token. Especially after fusing with the seventh token, his understanding and control of this object had deepened further.
There was also that vast power of Providence, which he could now draw upon and use more freely. Lu Yuan could be certain that if he wished, he could confer titles upon another group of people.
More importantly, because the amount of Providence he could use had increased, everyone whose true name had been inscribed upon the Investiture Edict would be able to obtain even greater benefits once again.
Of course, there was also the special power formed after the power of Providence and the purple qi of the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token fully fused and intertwined.
That was the power he had previously named Celestial Emperor Pure Land. The power it could display was now even stronger than before.
Fusing with the seventh ancient token had brought him many benefits. This was especially true of his understanding of the difference between Creation Immortal and Celestial Seat Immortal.
His understanding was no longer the same as before. However, breaking through was still not as simple as imagined.
I need to continue cultivating. More importantly, I need larger battles, accumulate experience, and be at the boundary between life and death. Only then will it be much faster.
Lu Yuan opened his eyes. He recalled the recent battles and realized that he had experienced too few big battles. Even when there had been battles, they had ended quickly, and each one had been a complete suppression.
There were just too few life-and-death battles he had been in.
Thinking carefully, it seemed that for a very long time, he had not experienced anything that could be called a life-and-death battle.
Especially after reaching his current realm, wanting to have such an experience again was likely already impossible.
Lu Yuan knew that it would be impossible unless a Celestial Seat Immortal fought him with full strength.
Yet that was fundamentally impossible. Disregarding whether such an existence was actually here on the current Earth or Milky Way Starfield, even if they were, they would not do such a thing.
Just like the two Celestial Seat Immortals from the Ji Clan and the Eternals. In the end, they had chosen to leave.
Reaching the Celestial Seat Immortal realm required enormous time and effort. So Lu Yuan knew that wanting to break through quickly was likely impossible.
He could only seek another method. However, in that case, hope would be even slimmer.
There was only battle.
Only through battle circumstances, could the true potential within his body be stimulated. Only at the instant between life and death, could he gain even more comprehension of the rules.
If Lu Yuan had such an opportunity, then perhaps he could step into the Celestial Seat Immortal level in an instant.
But if he did not, then it would really require a very long time. Perhaps one year, perhaps ten.
There was nothing else to be done. After reaching this realm, advancing another step could no longer be accomplished merely by accumulating power.
The most important thing was sudden enlightenment at a certain moment. Comprehending the rules by which heaven and earth operated, comprehending the illusory birth and destruction of all things.
The higher the realm, the more this was the case. In this regard, Lu Yuan understood better than anyone, because he had walked this path step by step.
It could almost be said that every step he took was extremely solid.
This was especially true after fusing with the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token. He had comprehended the difference between Creation Immortal and Celestial Seat Immortal. He also knew that if he only blindly entered seclusion, it would not be of any use.
But where could he seek a great battle?
Can I only wait? A helpless look appeared on Lu Yuan's face.
Indeed, in terms of strength and realm, he was the strongest in the entire Milky Way Starfield.
Where could he find an opponent? Or even experience a life-and-death battle?
However, just as Lu Yuan was deep in thought, he suddenly sensed an aura approaching. It seemed the person knew that his seclusion had reached its final stage and had directly entered his courtyard.
