To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck - Chapter 546
Chapter 546: Chapter 261: The Origin of Tagging Along – 3
Countless people were shocked by the other party’s opportunity and ultimate achievement.
Unfortunately, this person had an unwavering heart towards the Dao. After achieving the unity of Qi, he did not linger in the mortal world.
Instead, he turned to find the previous Dao master of Ziyun Dao and crossed the sea together, heading north to the Beiming Youdu, searching for the elusive path of ascension.
Initially, people didn’t know the background of Sun Qingyi or if he had any descendants.
So at that time, after Sun Qingyi ascended, although people went to search for his legacy, wanting to gain a share of the ancient Wind and Thunder Path’s heritage, they found nothing.
But after searching for several years and finding nothing, everyone thought Sun Qingyi didn’t leave anything behind, and the buzz subsided.
Now that Lu Yuan has revealed himself, Anqiu True Person learns that Sun Qingyi had actually left a descendant.
And the heritage left by the other party for his offspring was finally acquired by Lu Yuan.
This destiny…
The more one thinks about it, the more jealous and angry it makes one.
Seeing Anqiu True Person’s expression, Lu Yuan understood clearly in his heart that his long-planned concealment had finally succeeded.
From now on, when cultivating the Taiping Dao Book, he could openly use the cover of the Five Thunder Book.
And the identity of Sun Qingyi’s legacy would always accompany him, becoming the external perception of him.
The long-standing hidden danger in his heart finally disappeared, naturally making him feel relieved.
“Now that I have cultivated the Five Thunder Book left by Sun Zhenren, my realm and cultivation have achieved some minor success. My only wish from now on is to continue to delve deeper into this law.”
Due to his happiness, Lu Yuan continued: “It is absolutely impossible for me to cultivate the Taiping Dao Book. I consider the previous agreement to be completed already.”
But if Dan Ding Dao thinks I have broken the agreement and wants to come for an explanation.”
“Then I will be waiting for the Dao Master of Dan Ding in Chu State, in Baling City.”
At that time, our generation of cultivators won’t need to present any arguments, just let the Dao Law decide the outcome and completely settle this matter.”
Lu Yuan’s words were light and slow, without any trace of grandiosity, just like speaking ordinary words to people.
But Anqiu True Person listened, and his heart felt heavy as a thousand pounds.
Because he knew that if the other party dared to say such words, it naturally meant that they were prepared to break with Dan Ding Dao completely.
As Lu Yuan had seen Ziyun Dao master, he had witnessed the prosperity and strength of Ziyun Dao.
As an equal to Ziyun Dao, Dan Ding Dao, the fact that he could say such words meant he wasn’t afraid of Dan Ding Dao’s suppression.
‘Could it be that this person has really condensed the Qi?’
Anqiu True Person thought so in his heart, giving rise to a chill, but his face remained cold and stern as he said, “After King Chu’s words, this old Daoist will go back and report them to the Dao Master without any mistake.”
“How he will respond at that time, I will leave it to the Dao master to decide. King Chu, just wait and see.”
“Here is the spirit jade for King Chu. I present it now and take my leave.”
Having said that, Anqiu True Person pushed the spirit jade in his hand forward and handed it back to Lu Yuan.
Then he no longer wanted to stay here for a moment, turned around and left directly.
Lu Yuan didn’t intend to keep him as he had said earlier, he just watched silently, letting him go.
Although he had a falling out with Dan Ding Dao.
But whether the other party would go to war with him after revealing his strength today was still unknown.
It’s possible that Dan Ding Dao may be afraid of his strength, choose to swallow their anger and step back, right?’
The possibility was quite significant.
If he killed Anqiu True Person now, it would indeed cut off one of Dan Ding Dao’s arms. But it would also completely make the situation irreversible.
Although he claimed not to be afraid of Dan Ding Dao,
Lu Yuan was well aware that if they really fought each other, his side would be more likely to lose.
At that time, even if he could save his own life,
how many could be saved: Sun Siwen, Zhou Qing, Lan Cai’er, his two sons, or even Chu State? It would be hard to tell.
The price would be too high, and Lu Yuan didn’t want to take that gamble.
“So I hope Dan Ding Dao can recognize the pros and cons, not act impulsively out of anger, and make irrational decisions. Otherwise, if a real fight breaks out, it will be a lose-lose situation, and it will be unbearable for both sides.”
Lu Yuan sat on the throne, his left hand gently stroking the cold chair, feeling the intricate patterns on it, his heart extremely calm.
…
After meeting Anqiu True Person, Lu Yuan’s actions accelerated again.
The mobilization of the army, the storage of food and fodder, and even the selection of all necessary officials for administration and counties after occupying Da Changhe Country was ordered by the Ministry of Personnel to begin.
The preparations for the attack on Da Changhe Country sped up suddenly.
It was unknown whether Dan Ding Dao would come to make trouble, and it was also unknown whether the two sides would end up fighting.
But Lu Yuan couldn’t just rely on the hopes that the other party would consider the overall situation and swallow their anger.
He had to do his own preparation.
Thus, the only choice was to quickly increase his strength.
Conquer more territories, gather more Qi luck, and make the cultivation of Taiping Dao Book even faster.
As long as he could break through and condense the Qi, even if he had a falling out with Dan Ding Dao, he would be able to fight back and not be at an absolute disadvantage.
At present, his strength was enough for self-preservation, but the gap between him and Dan Ding Dao was still too large.
Fortunately, Chu State and Dan Ding Dao were thousands of miles apart.
On a round trip between the two sides, even if riding swiftly, it would still take two or three months.
And if the other side really planned to target Chu State, they naturally wouldn’t take action immediately after receiving the news. They would need to make some preparations as well.
With the travel time and preparations taken into account, the real start of the conflict might be half a year later.
This time gap would give Lu Yuan more time to prepare.
“By the time Xiaoqing breaks through to Innate in seven or eight months, we can hold a grand celebration ceremony. Once the news spreads, Chu State’s Qi luck will rise again.
By then, my cultivation should also be able to increase a bit more.
With this news, knowing that our side has gained another Inborn Grandmaster, maybe it could disrupt Dan Ding Dao’s preparations somewhat and force them to change their plans.”
If the delay is longer, and I send troops to Da Changhe Country to create some progress there,
Condensing Qi might be achievable.
By then, why fear Dan Ding Dao?”
Lu Yuan planned these things in his heart.
His falling out with Dan Ding Dao, of course, was not merely a moment of impulsiveness.
This plan, linked step by step, was also what he planned in his heart.
Now it only depends on which side can be better prepared first.
Lu Yuan was looking forward to finding out.
