Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?! Chapter 1026 - 540: Eighth Life: Xuandan City, Capital of Alchemy!

Profound Fire Domain.

Headquarters of the Divine Fire Sect.

A grand sacred altar rises majestically, resembling the legendary Ancient Divine Mountain, right in the heart of the headquarters.

Ancient and awe-inspiring, this altar features surfaces etched with intricate Law Dao Marks that illustrate vast landscapes, flying creatures, wild animals, celestial bodies like the sun, moon, and stars.

Through the relentless flow of ages, it exudes an even greater sense of solemnity and weight.

Just a single look from a typical cultivator would awaken a profound resonance within their very soul.

Hovering over the altar is a fierce Divine Fire that radiates brilliant radiance.

This Divine Fire appears to hail from the universe's inception, serving as the primordial source of every flame, the ultimate ruler over all fires.

Its brilliance even overshadows the sun itself!

Gathered beneath the altar, the elite powerhouses of the Divine Fire Sect gaze upon that fire with deep respect and adoration in their eyes.

For this very altar marks the spot where the sect's founder, Immortal Emperor Chixiao, attained enlightenment; it holds the status of a Holy Land cherished by every disciple.

Upon reaching enlightenment, Immortal Emperor Chixiao felt compassion for the hardships faced by mortal cultivators, thus he bestowed a Divine Fire to light the way for descendants, steering them toward progress.

Hence, that flame represents the sacred emblem of the Divine Fire Sect, enduring for millions of years without ever fading!

Yet, as the Supreme Decree got severed by Lu Yuan’s sword strike.

Among the assembly below the altar.

A middle-aged figure with streaks of gray in his hair abruptly sensed an anomaly and lifted his gaze toward the Great Li Dynasty's location.

"The Supreme Decree has been shattered; does this mean Wei Hu has met with failure too?"

Wei Qian creased his forehead faintly, evidently caught off guard by this abrupt development.

After all, the Great Li Dynasty remains merely a minor mortal kingdom, devoid of any Celestial Destiny Great Power for countless years.

Regarding an entity at the level of a Void Dao Saint Master, it borders on mythical status for the Great Li Dynasty.

However, Wei Hu has already reached the late-stage of Void Realm Cultivation, and armed with the Supreme Decree, he stands invincible within the Void Realm.

In such a scenario.

For him to still face disaster implies the presence in the Great Li Dynasty of someone surpassing even a Void Dao Saint Master in might?

Furthermore, a late-stage Void Saint Master constitutes a pinnacle asset in any Dao Lineage, one that demands utmost caution.

With Wei Hu abruptly running into peril, even Wei Qian detected that something was wrong.

"Venerable Wei Qian, what occurred?"

An adjacent elder spotted his peculiar look and couldn't resist inquiring.

"Nothing major, merely a minor issue."

Wei Qian kept his composure steady and replied casually.

The Divine Son’s upcoming Nirvana demands a hundred Dharma Protectors to ward off any external threats.

This issue ties directly to the prosperity or ruin, the very existence, of the whole Divine Fire Sect.

Right now.

Even should the heavens collapse, he cannot afford to lose focus!

As for the situation with Wei Hu, it must be investigated once this passes.

```

At the same time, elsewhere.

Lu Yuan, having collected the seven-colored Treasure Lotus and cleared the site of battle, made his way back to the Cyan Cloud Sect.

On this occasion, though the clash with Wei Hu seemed straightforward, it brimmed with grave danger.

It succeeded only because he had already grasped numerous Powers of the Supreme Law, enabling him to counter the restraint imposed by the Supreme Law.

Otherwise, should it be some other Void Dao Saint Master, they would probably get instantly overpowered by that Supreme Decree, utterly powerless to fight back.

"That Supreme Decree was merely a hasty order penned by Wei Qian."

"Should he arrive personally, even with my command over the Power of the Supreme Law, I fear resisting would prove challenging."

Following the capture of Wei Hu.

Lu Yuan refrained from complacency and meticulously examined the successes and shortcomings of the fight in his thoughts.

The Power of the Supreme Law proves immensely potent, yet numerous Dark Evil Gods and influential beings from the Main World keep a vigilant eye on events within the Supreme Origin Sacred Realm.

Should he employ it too often, their notice would come swiftly.

Besides, drawing from the knowledge extracted from Wei Hu’s mind.

With all law authorities now completely allocated, rivalries among the major Dao Lineages have intensified sharply.

In the past, when resources flowed plentifully, harmony prevailed, and their paths seldom crossed.

But today, every scrap of resource has been parceled out exhaustively.

If another takes a larger share, it leaves less for you.

Human nature drives self-interest; none would surrender their gains to rivals without cause.

Moreover, the human principle: drawing from the needy to bolster the affluent.

As an Immortal Dao Lineage waxes stronger, its greed swells, craving ever more resources to claim.

Under these conditions.

Even the Celestial Sword Pavilion, usually aloof from mortal concerns, finds it impossible to stay detached.

It appears that soon enough.

A colossal war unlike any before will engulf myriad realms.

This conflict will drag in every faction, leaving none untouched.

When that time arrives, Lu Yuan needs ample strength to endure the turmoil of Dao Lineage conflicts!

"The law authorities in this realm lie tightly gripped by the diverse Dao Lineages; to ascend as a Ming Dao Venerable, I need an alternative path."

Lu Yuan’s gaze shimmered as he pondered deeply.

Were it any other Void Dao Saint Master in this predicament, barring allegiance to those Immortal Dao Lineages and submission to their will, choices would be scarce.

Yet he stands apart.

Armed with wisdom from repeated lives and an insight into Heaven and Earth Laws surpassing even certain Ming Dao Venerables.

On top of that, through his control of multiple Powers of the Supreme Law, he could potentially overpower a Ming Dao Venerable!

"Upon death, one’s Dao vanishes; no matter how formidable a Ming Dao Venerable, they remain mortal and slayable."

"Once a Ming Dao Venerable perishes, the law authority they wield becomes free for the taking."

Lu Yuan identified a vital truth.

Nevertheless, a Ming Dao Venerable commands immense Divine Techniques, able to etch enduring Law Imprints across the world, rendering them all but eternal.
