Chapter 542. Grand and Majestic, Still No Breakthrough, a Decision

The light was entirely purple, and carried a grand and majestic power as it filled Lu Yuan's surroundings. At this moment, his entire being became different, as if his very bearing had transformed.

After the eighth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token was fused, his physique and soul were both strengthened.

A single fusion had changed Lu Yuan's strength. However, he still did not break through. He remained in the Creation Immortal Realm.

After sensing this, Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the light around him. He could clearly perceive that after the eighth token fused, the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens had already reached a relatively complete state.

The might they emitted was stronger than before.

Thus, he became even more certain. If one day he could gather all the ancient tokens, that would mean the power and function within them would be fully activated.

He was completely certain about this.

Of course, Lu Yuan was still disappointed. He could not break through at this time. If he wanted to become a Celestial Seat Immortal and comprehend the Celestial Seat laws, relying only on his current state would be too difficult.

"I still need an actual battle. At the very least, I need to fight a Celestial Seat Immortal," Lu Yuan murmured to himself. In his heart, he was naturally excited about fusing the eighth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token.

But more than that, he knew that only his own power was worth relying on.

After his recent battles with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, he understood this even more clearly. Such enemies did not seem numerous at present, but each one was powerful enough. So far, he had never seen an Extracosmic Heavenly Demon below the Creation Immortal Realm.

In the realm divisions of the Endless Cosmos, that was the Heaven Rank. Lu Yuan believed that the Forsaken Heaven Clan, which was also the race of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, had many powerful experts. Those who had appeared now were only the vanguard.

The Ji Clan and the Eternals were the first to join forces with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, but they had yet to appear.

A single Celestial Race, plus some Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, already required a terrifying powerhouse like Jiang Taiyu to act.

If all the powerful experts of the Forsaken Heaven Cosmos came out in full force, what then?

Admittedly, the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens helped him greatly. But he could not rely on them forever. No matter what, he had to break into the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm in a short time.

I have already fused the eighth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token. Whether I can smoothly control the power within it in the future will also depend on whether I can reach that level myself. Lu Yuan thought briefly.

The Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens had an enormous connection to the Human Sovereign Celestial Emperors. Even the current him could not control all the Providence within them. The conditions required were too harsh.

To control everything, he needed to become even more powerful. Put another way, even without the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens alone required him to become stronger.

With this thought, Lu Yuan ceased thinking further.

He walked out of the room. After thinking for a moment, he stepped forward.

His target was naturally the Thunderflash Mountain Range.

He already had an idea. No matter what, he had to undergo a life-and-death battle and push himself to the very limit. He wanted to see if, under such circumstances, he could advance further and reach the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm.

Time waited for no one. Although he knew this was rushed, there was no other way. The enemy would not give him time to slowly make plans.

Meanwhile, elsewhere within the Thunderflash Mountain Range, the towering black mist had disappeared.

That indescribable power had also been completely erased.

Jiang Taiyu had acted. He had completely removed all the power left behind by the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

In this way, they could indeed be considered to have gained the advantage on the Celestial Star.

Now, if one looked down from the void, one would discover that the half of the Celestial Star previously shrouded in black mist had already receded by a great deal after the Thunderflash Mountain Range was seized.

Only one-third remained in the black mist. This meant that the area controlled by the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had shrunk.

The Thunderflash Mountain Range was the Celestials' ancestral land and held an important position on the Celestial Star. Now that the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had lost this territory, they naturally could not be compared to before.

"I did not expect that as soon as Young Friend Lu arrived, he would let us make such great progress."

Seeing the situation, even Jiang Taiyu smiled. Of course, he knew that the credit for seizing the Thunderflash Mountain Range could not all be counted on Lu Yuan. But no matter what, all of this had happened after Lu Yuan appeared here.

"Of course. Lu Yuan is best at turning the impossible into the possible." At this moment, Jiang Ningxian spoke from beside Jiang Taiyu. "You do not know this, Father, but he really can change the situation all by himself. At the beginning of Earth's awakening, the Milky Way Starfield should have been seized by the various starfields. But because of him, the situation is what it is today."

When she spoke of Lu Yuan, a smile appeared on her face, and the two small dimples at the corners of her mouth had not disappeared since then.

"Sister, I admit Lu Yuan is very strong, but do you have to praise him like that? Your little brother is not weak either."

Hearing this, Jiang Haokong spoke, sounding indignant. He felt that he was her actual younger brother. Why had he never heard such praise since they were young?

"Why do you have to compete with Lu Yuan over everything?"

Jiang Ningxian was helpless as well, and she shot her brother a sharp look with her beautiful eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Taiyu smiled and shook his head. Sometimes, he really had no way to deal with this pair of children.

Soon, however, he suddenly raised his head and looked in another direction, surprise in his eyes. "He's done so soon?"

At this moment, Jiang Taiyu sensed an aura approaching. With his cultivation, he naturally knew who it was.

Originally, he had thought that fusing the eighth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token would take Lu Yuan quite some time. But now, it seemed far faster than he had expected.

At this moment, Lu Yuan appeared before the three of them.

He did not hesitate and spoke first. "Senior."

Jiang Taiyu nodded in acknowledgement before asking, "It is done?"

There was no way around it. The Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token was too important, so there could not be the slightest carelessness.

"Mm," Lu Yuan replied. "There were no problems during the process. However, I still didn't achieve the goal I wanted."

His implication was simple. He had not broken into the Celestial Seat Immortal Realm. He had originally thought the eighth Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token would provide some aid, but now, it seemed things were not that simple.

"I understand," Jiang Taiyu replied. "So, what do you have in mind?"
