Global Awakening: I'm the Only One Ready

Chapter 414. The Third Ancestor of the Ji Clan, Powerful Experts Gather, Waiting

Yes. Lu Yuan intended to not only resolve this crisis. More importantly, he wanted to gather all those powers together. The stronger he became, and the more time passed, the more intensely he felt it.

This world...

No.

It should be said that the entire universe was about to face a great calamity. And this calamity would clearly be caused by the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

They were existences whom the Human Sovereign Celestial Emperor and the ancient sages had regarded as great enemies, as the source of a great calamity. If Lu Yuan relied on his strength alone, he definitely would not be able to resist them. But if he could unite the power of the entire universe...

Lu Yuan knew this would be extremely difficult. But if he did not do it, then when the great calamity descended, what could they do?

Fortunately, he still had some time. He could make sufficient preparations.

Over the following days, Lu Yuan continued as he usually did. He cultivated and evolved, comprehending the path that lay ahead.

At the same time, he offered guidance to the members of the Celestial Court. This did not only include the younger generation such as Zhu Qingyu, but the others as well.

In short, he truly wanted to strengthen the Celestial Court as much as possible within his own abilities. Only then would he have greater confidence in facing one crisis after another. Besides, this was what he had been doing all along.

At the same time, beyond Earth, within the solar system, boundless radiance emerged. Vast auras surged and trembled, rippling out layer upon layer, as though even the stars themselves were about to shift from their positions.

At this moment, many Outer Cosmos beings had already gathered outside Earth. They stood in the void, their bodies shrouded in light, making it hard to see their appearances clearly.

Among them were existences from the Top 100 Starfields, including those ranked in the top ten.

"I hear the Jiang Clan has chosen to cooperate with that so-called Celestial Court of Lu Yuan's?" At this moment, someone from one side spoke. It was an elderly man dressed in black. He was tall and imposing, and had a cold expression on his face. Just by standing there, he gave off an extremely intense sense of pressure, as though no one could easily approach him.

"That is correct, Third Ancestor. Will this cause trouble for our plans?" The person beside him spoke, and this person was none other than the Holy Son of the Ji Clan.

He had already returned to the Milky Way Starfield. Although he had not fully recovered from his injuries, they no longer had too great an effect on his combat strength.

At the same time, the Holy Son of the Ji Clan had also invited some powerful experts from within his clan.

Originally, according to the plan, they were supposed to arrive later. After all, the Ji Clan had no real interest in Earth's resources and fortunes. They only wanted to wait until the influence of the Separation of Heaven and Earth disappeared completely, then descend amid the chaos and seize that wisp of Providence of the Great Age.

However, because of what the Holy Son of the Ji Clan had said after the fight, the clan began to take Lu Yuan seriously. They understood that he would become a difficult enemy. If they did not deal with him as soon as possible, he would likely become rather troublesome and hard to handle in the future.

Thus, the Third Ancestor of the Ji Clan had arrived. His cultivation and strength were even a notch above the Holy Son of the Ji Clan.

After hearing those words, he shook his head slightly and continued, "The Jiang Clan is indeed powerful, but our Ji Clan does not fear them. Besides, did you not say it yourself? The Eternals and some people from the Sukhāvatī Starfield all bear killing intent toward Lu Yuan. No matter how strong the Jiang Clan is, would they dare face the combined forces of these three great starfields alone? They are thinking far too highly of themselves."

In his view, the Jiang Clan was indeed worth paying attention to, but they could not become an actual disaster. At most, they would make things a little more troublesome when the time came.

Yet, one thing was certain, the Jiang Clan would never choose to start an all-out war because of Lu Yuan.

Unless they had completely lost their minds.

"Indeed." A smile could not help but appear on the Holy Son of the Ji Clan's face.

His hatred toward Lu Yuan was no longer simply a personal grudge. Lu Yuan would become a major threat in the future, and might even endanger the entire clan. Therefore, this man had to die.

The Eternals had also begun taking action. In addition, the Ji Clan was joining forces with various parties. They were only waiting for the moment when the power of the Separation of Heaven and Earth disappeared completely.

When that time came, numerous powerful experts would descend and attack Lu Yuan together. He refused to believe that under such circumstances, Lu Yuan could still turn the tides and reverse the situation.

At this thought, the Holy Son of the Ji Clan turned toward the elderly man and asked, "Third Ancestor, according to your estimation, how much longer can the power of the Separation of Heaven and Earth last?"

Everything now depended on when the restriction dissipated. Naturally, it could not take too long. Otherwise, it would give Lu Yuan more time to grow.

"Half a year at most. If it is faster, perhaps only three months," the Third Ancestor spoke, stating his estimate.

He felt that the time was about right. The Separation of Heaven and Earth had protected the Milky Way Starfield for countless years. Now that this world had revived, it would not be able to hold on for much longer.

"Only half a year, or perhaps three months?" The Holy Son of the Ji Clan smiled.

That amount of time was far too short. No matter how talented Lu Yuan was, at most, his combat strength would increase somewhat.

As long as he did not continue breaking through from Undying Immortal to Grotto-Heaven Immortal, or even to Creation Immortal, everything would remain manageable.

After that, the Holy Son of the Ji Clan said nothing more and closed his eyes. He also planned to use this period of time to fully recover from his injuries. If he could personally kill Lu Yuan when the time came, that would be even better.

Not only the Ji Clan, the various Outer Cosmos races all harbored different thoughts toward Earth and the Celestial Court. After all, since this starfield first began to revive, many clans had members killed by Lu Yuan.

Now, in their view, it was time for revenge. As for what their own clansmen had done back then, what did that have to do with them? In short, all they needed was the fact that Lu Yuan had killed members of their clans.

Now that all the races had joined forces...

Could they possibly still fear him?

At this moment, almost everyone was waiting for the final moment—the moment when the Separation of Heaven and Earth completely dissipated.

On Mount Tai, one day, a powerful aura suddenly spread out from somewhere. Immediately afterward, a second aura followed. In an instant, under the influence of those auras, mountains and rivers trembled, and streaks of rosy light appeared across the sky.

When the members of the Celestial Court who were cultivating saw this, confusion immediately appeared on their faces. They did not understand what had happened.

But one thing was certain. Someone had broken through, and their strength was significant.

Yet it was not Zhu Qingyu and the others of the younger generation.

Nor was it the Beast Kings.

Inside his room, Lu Yuan also opened his eyes, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

Then, he walked straight out of the house and looked toward another place. That was the residence of Jiang Ningxian and her younger brother.

He had already reached the Immortal Realm earlier, so naturally, it was impossible for him to make progress so quickly. The ones breaking through now were the two siblings.

Not long after, the siblings walked out one after another. From the auras they gave off, it could be sensed that both of them had now reached the Immortal Realm.

"Sister, you were faster than me again this time." Jiang Haokong spoke with a smile on his face.

However, he did not show the same helplessness he had when facing Lu Yuan. Clearly, he was happy for his sister and did not mind that she had broken through before him.

But after hearing this, Jiang Ningxian's face showed no expression at all. Instead, she looked extremely solemn.
