Lu Yuan reflected on the insurmountable barriers for loose cultivators aspiring to become Ming Dao Venerable, as powerful Dao Lineages like the Divine Fire Sect monopolize all Law Daos and opportunities. Over the next half-month, he consolidated his cultivation and practiced new Blood Dao secret techniques to bolster his combat prowess. Suddenly, a terrifying aura descended upon the Great Li Dynasty as Wei Hu, a formidable figure from the Wei Family, arrived in fury to avenge a slain scion, slaughtering probing Nirvana strong persons and threatening to massacre a million innocents per breath if Lu Yuan did not appear. Lu Yuan confronted him directly, questioning the brutality of taking anger out on the innocent.

Wei Hu spoke indifferently, his stare locked on Lu Yuan, while a malicious smirk abruptly surfaced on his otherwise serene countenance.

"Entering the Void Realm at such a tender age truly demonstrates your aptitude, yet crossing my Wei Family was unwise, particularly slaying the rightful successor of our lineage."

His words had barely concluded.

A flick of his wrist summoned tens of thousands of severed heads materializing abruptly before Lu Yuan from nowhere.

These heads met their end with eyes wide open, their expressions frozen in the horror and hopelessness of their final moments, as though they had endured unimaginable cruelties.

Among them, Lu Yuan spotted several recognizable visages.

For these cultivators slain by Wei Hu turned out to be none other than disciples from the Cyan Cloud Sect!

"You seek your own demise!"

The instant Lu Yuan laid eyes on the heads of his fellow disciples.

His pupils contracted sharply, and an icy murderous aura burst forth from him, staining the heavens in crimson.

Renowned for concealing his feelings, he now seethed with overwhelming rage, yearning to shred Wei Hu apart and drown the Wei Family in bloodshed!

"Do you believe scattering all the sect's disciples guarantees their security?"

"Should you provoke our Wei Family, no matter where you flee to the world's edges, death awaits you!"

Detecting the intense murderous fervor and wrath radiating from Lu Yuan, Wei Hu remarked with evident amusement.

Rather than a swift fatal clash, he relished toying with adversaries like a feline toying with prey, gradually driving them toward utter desperation.

Observing their futile struggles and defiance, all while unable to break free from his control.

And the Cyan Cloud Sect disciples he had slain offhandedly served merely as an opening course.

Observing Wei Hu's arrogant poise, as though triumph was assured.

Lu Yuan abruptly broke into a quiet smile.

However, his grin held no warmth, resembling a hidden razor edge, stirring a faint disquiet in Wei Hu, as if impending doom loomed.

"What do you find amusing?"

A shiver ran through Wei Hu, prompting him to inquire instinctively.

"I've just decided to alter my plans; I won't let you perish so swiftly."

"I intend to shatter your physical form, trap your spirit inside the Seven-colored Treasure Lotus, subject it to eternal divine flames, and force you to watch the Wei Family's collapse firsthand!"

Lu Yuan fixed Wei Hu with a glacial stare, uttering each syllable with unyielding resolve.

His voice remained remarkably steady, as if discussing something insignificant.

Nevertheless, the razor-sharp lethality woven into his declaration sent chills through even a Late-stage Void Saint Master like Wei Hu, prickling his skin with unease.

"My Wei Family is guarded by a Venerable, and you, a mere youth, presume to eradicate our entire clan?"

Aware that a junior like Lu Yuan had unnerved him, Wei Hu flared with anger, calling forth a Treasure Seal to pulverize Lu Yuan.

The seal began palm-sized, yet as Wei Hu channeled mana into it, it expanded dramatically against the gales, soon towering like a colossal peak.

Etched upon its face were the characters for "Sky-Splitting".

Upon manifestation, it bypassed spatial barriers and range, manifesting directly overhead of Lu Yuan!

Sky-Splitting Seal!

This artifact boasted supreme quality, serving as Wei Hu's personal sacred treasure, forged specially for him by Venerable Wei Qian in recognition of his myriad services to the Wei Family.

When wielded at peak intensity.

The seal could unleash devastating force to raze skies and shatter lands, capable of obliterating a mid-stage Void Realm Saint Master in a flash.

Despite Lu Yuan's prodigious talent, his realm remained nascent, merely early-stage Void Realm. How could he endure Wei Hu's maximal assault?

Yet right as the Sky-Splitting Seal poised to smash Lu Yuan to oblivion.

Lu Yuan deployed the Wind Thunder Profound Wings, distorting the void with waves, and disappeared into nothingness.

"He evaded it after all?"

Wei Hu's eyes narrowed in disbelief.

One must recall that Venerable Wei Qian, in forging this seal, incorporated a measure of Profound Gold.

Not solely boosting its might immensely, but also granting spatial traversal abilities.

Able to pierce voids, disregard distances, and materialize instantly anywhere within the scope of divine sense.

In previous battles, foes seldom had a chance to respond before the Sky-Splitting Seal struck them.

Yet how did an early-stage Saint Master like Lu Yuan elude this blow?

"Shua!"

Before Wei Hu could process it, the void rippled once more.

Moments later.

A fissure tore open behind Wei Hu, from which Lu Yuan burst forth, brandishing the Blood Extinction Celestial Saber to slash at his rear!

Though Wei Hu was brutal, he possessed keen vigilance, particularly in combat, always staying alert.

Hence, Lu Yuan's abrupt emergence prompted an immediate counter.

"Bang!"

The Sky-Splitting Seal warped back from the distance, positioning itself above Wei Hu to intercept Lu Yuan's attack!

Still, could Lu Yuan's full-powered strike be deflected so effortlessly?

The massive seal, impacted by a crimson saber light, shuddered fiercely and was hurled aside in an instant.

The formerly impervious face of the Dharma Seal now bore a permanent gash, its shine notably dulled!

"This sensation of Space Law fluctuations?"

"At your youthful age, not only do you wield a sacred artifact, but one attuned to space itself."

Eying the Wind Thunder Profound Wings on Lu Yuan's back, Wei Hu felt a mix of astonishment and rage, at last comprehending the cause.

The crimson longsaber clutched by Lu Yuan was no ordinary weapon either, its savage edge radiance causing even Wei Hu's spirit to quail, unwilling to confront it directly!

"This lad is battle-hardened and armed with numerous sacred artifacts; Wei Jun's demise was hardly unwarranted."

Following this quick skirmish, Wei Hu recognized Lu Yuan as a formidable equal and abandoned his arrogance, opting to unleash his utmost.

With that resolve.

Wei Hu refrained from restraint, promptly invoking his ultimate lethal art.

"Disciple Shi Hu, receiving the Supreme Decree!"

His bearing turned profoundly deferential as he conjured a scroll from the ether, unfurling it deliberately with both hands.

As the scroll unfurled, golden glyphs ascended skyward.

These archaic and esoteric glyphs appeared to encapsulate the cosmos's deepest principles, disorienting even average Void Saints with a mere look.

The moment these glyphs manifested.

In the vicinity.

It was like some colossal force supplanted the Heaven and Earth Laws, reshaping the locale's regulations and hierarchy!

Beneath this force's sway.

All Nirvana experts and cultivators across the Great Li Dynasty abruptly sensed, in dread, their cultivations being wrenched away, vanishing entirely.

Transforming these robust practitioners, who could shift mountains and command oceans, into helpless mortals devoid of even binding a fowl's strength!

"What's going on?"

"Why have I lost my connection to heavenly spiritual energy, and why did my mana evaporate so suddenly?"

"To reshape Heaven and Earth Laws with a mere utterance, what sort of method is this?"

"Only a decree could strip us all of power; what monstrous entity has Lu Yuan roused?"

The Great Li elites exclaimed in alarm, their countenances etched with terror and hopelessness.

For these ordinary realm cultivators, a Celestial Destiny Great Power already loomed as an unattainable sovereign.

Most Great Li cultivators might never encounter a Celestial Destiny Great Power in their existence.

A Void Dao Saint Master was an even more mythical figure, with scant interaction possible for the masses.

As for a Ming Dao Venerable, such was beyond contemplation.

This stood as the apex predator of the hierarchy, a living legend. Numerous Great Li cultivators remained ignorant of them.

Only now.

Upon beholding the celestial-spanning sacred decree, they grasped the awe-inspiring might of a Ming Dao Venerable.

"Perishing beneath this relic is an honor for you."

Wei Hu positioned himself under the decree, arms folded behind, gazing down at Lu Yuan like a mere insect.

Though a Void Dao Saint Master held great strength, ultimately they drew from heaven and earth's essence.

Should the heavens withhold.

Their cultivation mirrored a watery illusion, lacking solidity, utterly defenseless.

And this decree, born from Venerable Wei Qian's hand, embedded a fragment of Supreme Law, empowered to redefine worldly order.

Deprived of Heaven and Earth Laws' sustenance.

A Void Saint Master resembles a stranded fish, powerless to fight back, ripe for the taking!
