Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Even the patriarch of the Jiang Clan had moved?

After hearing the news, Lu Yuan was shocked. He clearly had not expected it.

That was one of the most powerful experts in the entire universe. His strength had already reached the fifth realm of immortality, making him a truly invincible figure.

Yet now, he was personally taking action.

Clearly, he also knew how important this matter was, because it involved the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

”In that case, it seems we can only continue waiting for news,” Lu Yuan said.

Since even the patriarch of the Jiang Clan had acted, all Lu Yuan could do now was wait and see what the two Starfield Lords of the Eternals and the Ji Clan were planning.

If it had nothing to do with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, then it would not matter. But if it did, they had to treat it with absolute seriousness.

Even a figure like the Jiang Clan’s patriarch had been drawn in. Who knew what kind of great upheaval might follow?

”Mm.” Jiang Ningxian nodded. ”As soon as my father has news, I will inform you immediately.”

She truly had not expected her father to personally step out either. In the past, no matter what happened, he had always faced it calmly.

This alone showed how important the matter was. At the same time, she also believed her father might know even more.

”Right.” Lu Yuan seemed to think of something and continued, ”We should also send people to guard the Mount Kunlun Secret Realm and the other places with Nine-Colored Altars. For safety, they only need to stay at the perimeter.”

He had to keep track of what was happening there at all times. He could not afford to be blind to it.

What if the seals on the Nine-Colored Altars suddenly break? People had to be stationed there.

”Don’t worry.” Jiang Ningxian smiled. ”I arranged that long ago.”

She knew they could not be careless about this matter no matter what. Judging from her father’s current reaction, that was even more true.

Fortunately, the crisis would not happen so quickly. They still had some time.

Afterward, Lu Yuan and Jiang Ningxian chatted briefly, then parted ways.

Jiang Ningxian continued gathering information through the Jiang Clan.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan cultivated and evolved while monitoring the growth of the Celestial Court’s members.

In short, no one was idle.

Time passed little by little. In the blink of an eye, another three months went by. Among the Celestial Court members, the number of Sages continued to grow.

Some even entered the Great Sage Realm. Their progress was obvious.

But still, no one had entered the Immortal Realm. Even Yinglong, the strongest among them, remained at the Great Sage Realm.

It was simply too difficult.

For anyone, that realm represented a kind of sublimation. Breaking through it easily was impossible.

Because of this, those who had already entered the Great Sage Realm revered Lu Yuan even more.

They knew very well that after Lu Yuan reached the Great Sage Realm, it had not taken him long to ascend to the Immortal Realm, and he had done so in the middle of a great battle.

That ability had not seemed like much before. Looking back on it now, it was truly terrifying.

Of course, Lu Yuan himself did not think much of it. For him to reach this point, he had made all sorts of preparations long ago. Even after that, he had never slackened in the slightest.

However, he did not have overly high expectations for the Celestial Court’s members. He knew they had been given too little time. Even Jiang Ningxian and Jiang Haokong had prepared for a long time before entering the Immortal Realm.

Moreover, after entering the Grotto-Heaven Immortal Realm, Lu Yuan himself also felt how difficult it was to take another step forward.

Even with the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token helping him, he still found his progress painfully slow.

Perhaps to many people, this speed was already very fast, but Lu Yuan did not feel that way.

Setting aside the crisis of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons for the moment, there were still the Eternals and the Ji Clan.

Those two forces would definitely not let the previous matters rest. Sooner or later, all their grudges would be settled together.

Lu Yuan seemed powerful now, but in reality, before Starfield Lords, he still did not count for much.

Thus, he continued cultivating and evolving without the slightest slackening.

During this period, however, he also discovered that the purple qi emitted by the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token was very special. While constantly improving his physique and soul, it also helped him comprehend certain things during cultivation, such as the path ahead.

Together with the talent enhanced by the Bodhi Tree, Lu Yuan gradually began to understand the process of going from Grotto-Heaven Immortal to Creation Immortal.

A Grotto-Heaven was equivalent to opening up a space.

But that space was dead.

Let alone living beings, not even grass or trees existed inside it.

What came next was to create certain things within that space.

It was like when Lu Yuan had faced that Ji Clan’s figure before. He had been in the Creation Immortal Realm, and with a casual wave of his hand, he produced a massive star.

Such a method was practically mythical.

This was the process of advancing from the Grotto-Heaven Immortal Realm to Creation Immortal Realm.

The Creation Immortal Realm first required understanding. In other words, it required comprehension of all things in heaven and earth.

If one did not understand them, how could one create them?

Of course, even after truly reaching the Creation Immortal Realm, one could only create lifeless objects. But that was already powerful enough.

This was the realm Lu Yuan wanted to keep advancing toward.

With the Bodhi Tree and the things the Celestial Emperor’s Ancient Token had given him, Lu Yuan began trying to understand all things in the world, down to every blade of grass and every tree.

He did want to reach a higher realm as soon as possible, but he also knew in his heart that this could not be rushed.

Thus, in his following cultivation, he was very patient. He had already walked such a long road. There was no need to rush this brief stretch.

Besides, there was still no news from the Jiang Clan.

However, if he wanted to understand every blade of grass and every tree, merely staying on Mount Tai would not do. This place was still far too small compared to the entire world.

So after giving the necessary instructions, Lu Yuan chose to travel.

Since establishing the Celestial Court, he had spent most of his time in seclusion or battle. He had not yet had the chance to understand the world after the Global Awakening.

Of course, Lu Yuan had learned a great deal in his previous life, because back then, he had struggled at the very bottom.

But now, as he walked across the mountains, rivers, and earth, his state of mind was completely different.

Several years had passed since the Global Awakening.

However, this life was different from the last. The people of this world were no longer suppressed by Outer Cosmos beings, nor did they struggle bitterly to survive.

With the Celestial Court’s existence, those beings did not dare overstep by even half a step. So although there were struggles across the land, they did not involve this world’s ordinary people.

Lu Yuan knew that perhaps this was the meaning behind his establishment of the Celestial Court.

How innocent were those ordinary citizens?

Of course, it was not that he wanted to take it upon himself to protect everyone. Rather, within the scope of his ability, he wanted to do a little more.
