Xu Yucheng warned Lu Yuan of the Divine Fire Sect's conquest of over a thousand domains, their army now approaching the Profound Spirit Realm. Unconcerned, Lu Yuan assessed their forces as fragile and contemplated seizing the rare opportunity of the dormant Immortal Emperor Law. Divine General Jiang Ya arrived with thunderous demands for Lu Yuan's life, his terrifying presence activating the Medicine God Sect's defenses and plunging all into despair.

Yet, precisely when despair had engulfed the entire crowd.

Suddenly, a serene voice rang out from the heart of the Medicine God Sect.

"Did the Divine Fire Sect send just you to die?"

The instant those words dropped.

Countless Great Dao Laws wove together, crafting a golden pathway that spanned the skies, reaching from the distance.

Then.

A youth with black hair strode onto the Law Dao, advancing leisurely from the far side.

He materialized in front of the group in the blink of an eye.

"You are Lu Yuan?"

Sensing the aura radiating from Lu Yuan, Divine General Jiang Ya, typically stoic-faced, displayed an uncommon flicker of astonishment.

For Lu Yuan's flesh body proved immortal, his Daoist Skill had achieved Perfection, and he evidently stood at late-stage Inscription Dao cultivation too!

"Fascinating, you've advanced to late-stage Inscription Dao in merely three months."

"The reports were accurate after all; you truly are the reincarnation of an Outer Domain prodigy."

Divine General Jiang Ya fixed his gaze sharply on Lu Yuan, as though peering into his very roots.

As the foremost Divine General of the Divine Fire Sect, he possessed knowledge of hidden truths unknown to other Ming Dao Venerables.

Such as details on the Main World, reincarnators, Outer Domain prodigies, and the Will of the Heavens.

He had even personally cut down a reincarnated Outer Domain prodigy amid the Outer Domain battlefield.

To him.

Outer Domain prodigies might be demonic talents, but that was all they amounted to.

After all, every Ming Dao Venerable was already a genius among geniuses.

Jiang Ya himself had risen from seas of blood, trampling the skeletons of myriad prodigies, his own talent and potential vastly exceeding those hailed as Outer Domain prodigies.

Yet he never anticipated.

That Lu Yuan, freshly ascended to the Venerable Realm, could match him in prowess.

This pace of cultivation and innate gift was downright horrifying; even worldly Jiang Ya had never witnessed such a freakish being!

"Such a shame, had you joined our Divine Fire Sect, the Immortal Emperor would have surely noticed you."

"But you shouldn't have, never should have, slain our sect's Venerable Strong Person!"

"Regardless of your background, opposing our sect means you'll perish in remorse!"

Divine General Jiang Ya let out a cold harrumph, his voice laced with venomous killing intent.

Lu Yuan remained utterly nonchalant, paying the foe no heed whatsoever.

His Lifebound Dao Artifact was fully refined by now, and his present power allowed him to challenge even an Immortal Emperor's will.

Though Divine General Jiang Ya wielded great might, he paled in comparison.

"No point in delaying; you can't rival me. Send the Sun God Son to meet his end!"

Lu Yuan remarked casually, as if mentioning a trivial matter.

To Divine General Jiang Ya, however, it rang like the gravest affront.

Consider: he commanded immense strength, defending the Outer Domain battlefield for years until alien Venerables feared to appear.

Across the whole Supreme Origin Sacred Realm, his battle prowess ranked at the pinnacle.

And now this upstart Lu Yuan dared address him so?

"Insolent!"

"If death is what you crave, then I shall oblige!"

Furious to the extreme, Divine General Jiang Ya whipped out his Ancient Battle Halberd, slashing directly toward Lu Yuan's skull.

This Ancient Battle Halberd ranked as a top-grade Dao Artifact, unbreakable and razor-sharp beyond measure.

One swing unleashed horrifying might.

Immense mana surged everywhere, fracturing the void into fragments.

The halberd's edge gleamed with icy luster, poised to sever even Law Dao itself.

Before the halberd descended, the earth under Lu Yuan's feet tore open into an endless chasm.

The Medicine God Sect's Sect Protection Array fared no better against this apocalyptic halberd, crumpling like thin paper without resistance and exploding with a thunderous boom!

"Impossible! A mere aftershock shatters the Sect Protection Array?"

Xu Yucheng and the Medicine God Sect's powerhouses recoiled in terror, a bone-deep chill rising from their cores and racing through their forms.

Their Sect Protection Array comprised layers of formations etched with innumerable Law Dao Marks.

Refined and bolstered by generations of sect Venerables, its defenses soared to inconceivable heights.

It could even hold off a late-stage Ming Dao Venerable briefly.

But now.

Against Divine General Jiang Ya's wrathful blow, the mighty array lasted not a single breath?

As the Sect Protection Array burst apart in a deafening crash, Xu Yucheng grasped in that instant.

The true weight of the Divine Fire Sect's top Divine General title!

A Venerable's fury bleeds all life.

Divine General Jiang Ya's all-out assault terrified beyond words; any other early-stage Ming Dao Venerable would perish instantly!

Lu Yuan simply stirred his mind faintly.

In the following instant.

From his brow emerged the Five Element Immortal Cauldron, floating overhead and showering him in beams of immortal radiance that cloaked him completely.

"Klang!"

The fearsome Ancient Battle Halberd, brimming with mountain-cleaving force, slammed onto the Five Element Immortal Cauldron's exterior.

Yet the Five Element Immortal Cauldron weighed like an immovable primeval divine peak, utterly unmoved regardless of the halberd's dread power!

"Blocked it?"

Divine General Jiang Ya's eyes spasmed, disbelief surging through him.

His Ancient Battle Halberd knew no equal, baptized in the blood of countless alien Venerables, standing supreme among top-grade Dao Artifacts as an unmatched divine armament.

At maximum output, it could annihilate realms!

But Lu Yuan's Five Element Immortal Cauldron, appearing devoid of overt energy, withstood his utmost strike?

"It's the Yin Yang Five Elements Law—you've fused Wei Qian's Yin Yang Qiankun Circle and the Lin Family's Melting Sun Immortal Cauldron?"

Divine General Jiang Ya scrutinized the Five Element Immortal Cauldron closely, then uttered gravely.

The Yin Yang Qiankun Circle and Melting Sun Immortal Cauldron were supreme Dao Artifacts of rare potency.

Lu Yuan's complete merger of them into one Immortal Cauldron revealed his exceptional mastery.

"Indeed, inheriting Venerable Lingyun's Refining Dao Laws makes such superior refinement natural."

"But do you truly believe this cauldron alone can fend me off?"

A spark of comprehension lit Divine General Jiang Ya's features as he pieced together the sequence.

"You talk too much."

Unwilling to dally, Lu Yuan—with the cauldron suspended above—struck forth at once.

"Swish!"

Thereafter.

The Divine Prison Thunder Saber was drawn.

A bolt of shadowy thunder flashed abruptly, as a savage saber gleam rocketed skyward, bisecting the heavens!

"What Dao Artifact is this, even making my Venerable mark quiver?"

Sensing this pinnacle destructive force, Divine General Jiang Ya paled in shock, his prior poise shattered.

Law Dao Marks awakened on his golden battle armor, bursting with brilliant godly glow to shield him solidly.

Regrettably.

The Divine Prison Thunder Saber exuded an irresistible aura, hailed as the ultimate offensive Dharma Gate across All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Though Lu Yuan's Thunder Saber held only a wisp of the Divine Prison Thunder Saber's authentic essence, it still wielded realm-shattering devastation.

Furthermore, vast Power of Destruction Law coiled around the edge, amplifying its inconceivable ferocity.

"Crack!"

Against this cleave.

Divine General Jiang Ya's golden armor crumbled like mere bean curd.

A mere brush from a thread of dark thunder split it wide open.

The armor's surface Law Dao Marks faded away, its luster dulled, reduced to battered junk resembling worthless refuse.

Divine General Jiang Ya himself suffered grievous harm, looking as though ravaged by heavenly lightning.

His flesh torn asunder, half his form scorched black.

One lone slash.

Demolished a top-grade Dao Artifact and nearly felled a veteran Venerable right there!

In that instant.

Cold sweat drenched Divine General Jiang Ya, his soul gripped by utter dread.

For the Divine Prison Thunder Saber gripped by Lu Yuan was horrifically fearsome, instilling a never-before-felt helplessness!
