Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

The Outer Cosmos beings and the major clans of the various starfields were all shocked when they heard that the two clans had pulled their forces back.

It was indeed very sudden. After all, everyone had come for that wisp of Great Age’s Providence.

Yet now, these two great forces had left directly, leaving everyone unable to understand.

As such, some people speculated that perhaps the Ji Clan and the Eternals had begun to feel apprehension toward Lu Yuan.

Now, everyone knew that this rising figure of the Milky Way Starfield had already matured. His realm and strength had reached an extremely high level. He could even kill Creation Immortals.

He was a true powerhouse in every sense of the word.

Almost everyone no longer regarded him as part of the younger generation. He was an existence of a higher level.

Those who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him were likely only the top ten great forces ranked in the entire starry cosmos.

After all, among the major clans ranked behind them, the strongest experts within their clans were only at the Grotto-Heaven Immortal Realm at most. Perhaps some of the clans had Creation Immortals, but definitely not many.

However, Lu Yuan had even dared to directly kill a Creation Immortal of the Ji Clan.

Therefore, those Outer Cosmos beings felt that those two major clans had been terrorized.

After all, if they were in their shoes, they absolutely would not dare to become Lu Yuan’s enemy.

Such rapid growth speed was extremely rare even if one searched through the entire history of the universe. Under such circumstances, continuing to be his enemy was basically no different from seeking death.

As such, some guessed that the Ji Clan and the Eternals felt the same.

However, there were also people who dismissed such speculation. The two great forces had deep foundations, and they even had Starfield Lord existences presiding over them.

Those Starfield Lords were the cream of the crop of the current age.

How could they feel apprehensive toward Lu Yuan?

They concluded that the two clans might simply have more important matters to handle for now.

In short, there were all sorts of speculation and views regarding the two great forces pulling back their forces this time.

However, no one was certain about the situation. The only thing they could say with certainty was that Lu Yuan had completely matured and the Milky Way Starfield had completely risen up in the ranking.

The Milky Way Starfield had to be placed on the same level as everyone else, or even higher. They could no longer be ignored as before.

This was the same thought shared by the Outer Cosmos beings. Although some still did not want to admit it, there was no helping it. The facts were laid out right before them.

During this period, Lu Yuan also finally began adapting to that Providence and understood how to use it.

After fusing with the fifth Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token, his control over the Providence had also become much stronger than before. He could even continuously channel that power into the members of the Celestial Court, allowing them to obtain all kinds of benefits.

In this period alone, the number of people who broke into the Sage Realm had increased tremendously.

The Golden-Winged Great Peng, the Peacock King, and the others also entered the Great Sage Realm.

In just a short month, the overall strength of the Celestial Court rose by another level.

Leaving aside high-end battle prowess, at least in terms of mid-level battle strength, it was already not weaker than some Top 100 Starfields.

This speed could be considered extremely fast. After all, how long had it been since they had begun walking the path of evolution?

Only a few years.

And how long had it taken the Top 100 Starfields to develop to the Milky Way Starfield’s current level?

Lu Yuan was fairly satisfied with the current situation.

He also discovered some additional abilities of the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token. He could now begin actively triggering the purple qi within it, then merge it into his body.

When that happened, his battle prowess would become even stronger with the help of the purple qi. It was similar to the way the Primordial Dragon Breathing Technique augmented battle prowess.

Yet, there were also differences.

Although the battle prowess augmented by the purple qi would disappear after the battle. During the augmentation process itself, the purple qi could strengthen his physique and soul. Moreover, this strengthening was completely permanent.

In other words, now that Lu Yuan could actively circulate it, it was equivalent to him growing stronger at every moment.

This had completely exceeded his expectations.

After all, he had already cultivated to the Immortal Realm. Every slight improvement in power was extremely terrifying.

The Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token was indeed extraordinary.

Lu Yuan could not help marveling because this was equivalent to paving a path for him to continue growing stronger.

I should consider conferring titles upon Zhu Qingyu and Ice Fairy next. He thought. Now that he had the fifth Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token, he could better utilize Providence.

Lu Yuan had very high expectations for the younger generation. He hoped that at the very least, they would reach the Undying Immortal Realm.

Only then could they preside over the Celestial Court and protect the living beings of this world. At that time, he himself would no longer be bound to stay guard on Earth.

With that, he considered no further, rose from his seat and left the room.

He then summoned Ice Fairy and the others alone to the courtyard.

Without unnecessary words, he went straight to the point.

”I believe that since I have summoned you here, you all know what this is for.”

Lu Yuan then continued, ”Now, the Celestial Court is growing stronger and stronger. There are also more and more powerful experts. I cannot attend to every matter in every aspect, and you are effectively the current actual leaders of the Celestial Court.

”As such, I have no doubt of your strength. I have also placed great expectations on all of you. I will give you an opportunity, an opportunity to become truly powerful. However, this is optional and up to your own discretion.”

There was no need to force something like this. Before beginning, he had to ask clearly.

”I am willing.” Zhu Qingyu was the first to speak, without the slightest hesitation.

Her inner desire was to follow at Lu Yuan’s side.

But recently, she had discovered that the stronger she became, the slower cultivation and evolution became. Even though she had obtained some inheritances and had various resources tilted toward her, it was still the same.

By this point, Zhu Qingyu understood that it was likely because her potential was almost exhausted. As such, she had been very anxious lately.

Under such circumstances, now that she heard there was a possibility of continuing to grow stronger, she naturally would not hesitate.

Beside her, Ice Fairy, Young Celestial Master Chunyang, and the others all spoke in unison and expressed their willingness.

After everything they had experienced all these years, Lu Yuan was completely worthy of trust. So no matter what he said, they would choose to agree.

”Good.” Lu Yuan nodded and exhaled a turbid breath.

Without any hesitation, the Investiture Edict appeared with a single thought. Then he began to confer titles.

In other words, he wrote the true names of these people upon the Investiture Edict.

Unlike the others, what Lu Yuan was doing now was placing these names right beside ”Emperor Yuan.”

This also meant that after their true names were written, the blessing of Providence they would receive would be the strongest apart from his own.

With this Providence, these people would naturally advance to claim higher achievements.

Previously, Lu Yuan had not done this because it had been very difficult to control the wisp of Providence. However, it was relatively simple now.

The complete fusion of the fifth Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token allowed him to control Providence almost as easily as moving his own arm.

Zhu Qingyu also discovered that after her true name was written on the edict, a mysterious force seemed to appear within her.

And this force caused both her physique and soul to change.
