Chapter 2472: The God Of The Heavens Sect


    Lu Buzheng spoke up as well. "I see the Celestial Frost Sect wants to interfere in my Lu family''s affairs. Throughout history, the title of Dao Monarch of the Fifth Maind has belonged solely to the Lu family."


    Bai Wangyuan’s brow furrowed. In the past, he had not been concerned by the idea of Lu Yin calling himself Dao Monarch. However, recently, Bai Xian''er had contacted the Progenitor and said Lu Yin could not be allowed to im the title. The title held special significance, and Lu Yin seizing it for himself could lead to unforeseen events.


    That was why Bai Wangyuan had appeared to stop Lu Yin.


    Upon arriving in the Forsaken Land and seeing the countless people who were moved by Lu Xiaoxuan''s rallying cry, Bai Wangyuan had immediately known he could not allow the young man to im the title of Dao Monarch. For some reason, those two words made Bai Wangyuan extremely uneasy.


    It was like a singlemp being lit in a vast, dark sea. It felt as though those two words would act as a signal.


    Lu Yin stared at Bai Wangyuan. The primary motivation for holding this Heavens Assembly was to raise the Fifth Maind’s morale and to prevent the copse of cultivation in the Human Domain. Of course, it remained critical that Time Poison be removed from the true universe with the Origin Progenitor''s sword, but even if Lu Yin failed in doing that, the words that he had just spoken would be very useful in maintaining the spirits of the Fifth Maind’s cultivators. If he seeded, then the words would just be icing on the cake, raising his prestige even further.


    Still, even beyond the other objectives, there was another purpose behind Lu Yin’s actions: as a test.


    The identity of Dao Monarch seemed to be quite extraordinary. As Destina had said, among the Three Realms Six Dao, the Three Realms could never rece the Six Dao. Lu Yin wanted to see what was so special about the Six Dao, and by doing so, to see if anyone in the Perennial World knew just what made the Dao Monarchs unique.


    Bai Wangyuan''s appearance was confirmation that the title of Dao Monarch was truly special, as well as confirmation that someone did not want Lu Yin to receive the title.


    However, the more that he was opposed to it, the more determined Lu Yin became to take the title of Dao Monarch. He wanted to see who would dare to stand in his way.


    "Bai Wangyuan, look at the Fifth Maind. With your strength as a Progenitor, you are able to see everything in the Fifth Maind. Do you think that it is I, Lu Yin, who desires to be the Dao Monarch? Or is it the will of the people?" Lu Yin pointed out to the stars. "Do you think that you can stop them?"


    "Dao Monarch!" someone shouted.


    Immediately, countless people began to chant the words “Dao Monarch.” Even with Bai Wangyuan deliberately disying the pressure of a Progenitor, he was unable to suppress everyone. While in the Fifth Maind, Lu Yin had already defeated countless powerful enemies, including even Progenitors. His mere existence gave the people of the Fifth Maind overwhelming confidence, as well as a faith that bordered on the level of zealotry. This level of faith far surpassed what even the Lu family of the past had been capable of inducing.


    Bai Wangyuan found himself overwhelmed by the anticipation and ardent admiration that these people held for Lu Yin. The Progenitor was drowned out by the cheers and overflowing excitement. These people werepletely disregarding him, a pinnacle human cultivator, and were instead focused solely on Lu Xiaoxuan.


    It was apletely unfamiliar experience for Bai Wangyuan. If the Lu family had managed to wield simr influence in the Perennial World, then how could they have ever been overthrown? How could the Main Universe have been able to provide them with any assistance?


    Lu Yin lifted his head high and said, "Bai Wangyuan, your four ruling powers want to reign over all of humanity. All you think of is authority and power, and because of that, you will never be able to reach this step."


    Bai Wangyuan stared at Lu Yin and replied, "On the dark sea, a lone ship faces a storm. The ship’s sailor has lit amp, hoping that someone will notice it and help him. Lucky for him, arger ship sees the light and rescues him. He believes that kindness and food awaits him, but what he doesn’t know is that he is being delivered to his death feast. No one can survive such a terrible storm. Food and water are gone, and the only way to survive is through cannibalism. That sailor has be a source of food that allows others to survive.”


    "Lu Xiaoxuan. If you light thatmp, you will bring the entire Fifth Maind one step closer to its demise."


    Iprehension covered Lu Yin’s face as he stared at Bai Wangyuan and asked, "What is thatmp?"


    Bai Wangyuan responded solemnly, "‘Dao Monarch.’"


    Lu Yin’s eyes narrowed and he asked, "Is it really just the title of Dao Monarch?"


    Bai Wangyuan was not actually certain himself. When he had asked Bai Xian''er about this matter, she had not known either, but the title of "Dao Monarch" made Bai Wangyuan extremely uneasy. He also knew that Bai Xian''er cultivated Destiny''s power, which was why he trusted her judgment on so many things. He truly believed that she would eventually rece the role of the Lu family and rule the entire Perennial World.


    This matter was simply another one where Bai Wangyuan trusted Bai Xian’er. If Lu Xiaoxuan became the Dao Monarch, then he would attract the attention of the Main Universe, just as the Lu family had done before. Even the Lu family had been banished, let alone a single Lu Yin. He would invite disaster upon himself, and the Main Universe would utterly destroy him. This was Bai Wangyuan’s prediction, but because of Bai Xian''er''s warning, the Progenitor had abandoned his thoughts and moved to stop Lu Xiaoxuan.


    Furthermore, the words "Dao Monarch" made Bai Wangyuan feel very uneasy.


    "We’ve formalized a truce, so I won''t stop you. I’m only here to share a bit of advice. The universe is too vast for everyone to live however they wish. After the Heavens Sect era, the Dao Monarchs have disappeared. Even your Lu family’s Progenitor went into seclusion for many years, not even showing themselves when the family was banished. The Third Maind’s Dao Monarch betrayed humanity. Such is the fate of the Three Realms Six Dao," Bai Wangyuan stated.


    Lu Yin would never believe Bai Wangyuan''s words. If bing the Fifth Maind’s Dao Monarch was really so detrimental to Lu Yin, then why would Bai Wangyuan try to stop it from happening? However, Lu Yin was also unable to determine if Bai Wangyuan was trying to stop him from bing the Dao Monarch, or if he was simply trying to prevent certain changes that would ur once someone became the Dao Monarch.


    If it was thetter, then Lu Yin would need to proceed with extreme levels of caution.


    When Hen Xin and the others had first awoken in the current era, they had mentioned that there were secrets known only to the Dao Monarchs. Destina had also said that the Three Realms could never rece the Six Dao. She assumed that there was some connection to the Origin Progenitor''s swords, and Bai Wangyuan''s warning made Lu Yin even warier of what could potentially happen.


    Just what was the significance to this particr title?


    "Dao Monarch!"


    "Dao Monarch!"


    "Dao Monarch!"


    Countless voices echoed the words "Dao Monarch." Bai Wangyuan could not suppress the crowd’s frenzy. Lu Yin looked up and saw countless eyes staring at him. There were Enlighters, Envoys, Semi-Progenitors, and even Progenitors staring at him. But regardless of the individual’s cultivation level, absolutely everyone was awaiting Lu Yin’s decision and were prepared to follow his lead.


    Why did he need to think about this so much?


    Why should he be so cautious of a mere title?


    Why should he care about Bai Wangyuan’s words?


    After losing his memory, Lu Yin had risen from amon independent cultivator to his current heights, often by relying on sheer fearlessness to surpass many of the challenges that had stood before him. So what if the universe was unbelievably vast? So what if there were unknown dangers? Humans were not soft persimmons that could be pinched and crushed. During the Heavens Sect era, humanity had been able to reach astronomical heights and had lived in harmony despite the existence of thousands of races. The same could be done once again.


    Was it really necessary for a person to have to care about more things as they climbed higher?


    Lu Yinughed at himself. He was overthinking things. It was pointless to worry about things when he did not even understand them yet.


    The title "Dao Monarch" held no significance to him, and he could choose to use it or not however he pleased.


    So what if Destiny was alive or dead? Why should it matter to him? Could Destiny truly manipte his future? If that were possible, then she would not have been Destiny, but rather the Origin Progenitor. That was a level that not even Aeternus could reach.


    Were the Three Realms Six Dao truly dead? Lu Yin’s master had once said that it might be possible to meet them in the Immemorial Citadel.


    Did Progenitor Chen really die? Maybe not. Lu Yin had already seen the man in Burial Garden, and he had even witnessed him repel the Progenitor of Secret Arts.


    Was the Rune Progenitor really dead? If so, then how could runes still cover the Fifth Maind?


    Had Progenitor Ku really died? With his Extremes Must Be Reversed, it was hard to imagine the man ever truly dying.


    Lu Yin’s master and senior brothers still lived, and there was also the possibility that the once-glorious heroes of the past still lived as well. Perhaps they were even watching him from somewhere, waiting for him. He might appear to be alone, with only Arch-Elder Zen by his side in the vast Fifth Maind, but when Lu Yin looked down, Lu Buzheng, Hen Xin, Destina, Kui Luo, and Highsage Grandmaster were all approaching the same level. How many of them would eventually be Progenitors themselves?


    Lu Yin was not alone.


    His worries all stemmed from the fact that there was no one able to stand by his side and that there was no one capable of sharing the burden of humanity''s future with him.


    However, that impression was not entirely true. He had simply failed to see the truth.


    Bai Wangyuan imed that lighting thismp would bring their death feast upon them, but it might also be possible to use themp to illuminate the surrounding darkness.


    No one could confirm if the Origin Progenitor was truly dead, and even the Three Realms Six Dao had not been confirmed dead. The Lu family still lived, and Progenitor Chen, Progenitor Ku, Rune Progenitor, and others might once again appear in the future. If those people were truly still alive, then what did Lu Yin have to fear?


    Right, why was he so worried? Why was he feeling depressed? The expanse of outer space that he could perceive was indeed limited, but humanity''s future was infinite. There was a solution to every problem. Even if there was danger, there was nothing that Lu Yin had to face on his own. Since when had he be so hesitant?


    Abruptly, Lu Yin looked up and surveyed the crowd. "Dao Monarch? It doesn''t matter."


    The entire region fell silent as every eye was fixed on him.


    Even Bai Wangyuan was staring at Lu Yin, having noticed that something had changed in the young man.


    "Whether willing or unwilling, I, Lu Yin, have led the Fifth Maind to where it currently stands. Whether I''m Dao Monarch or not, I will continue to uphold the Fifth Maind''s sky. That has always been the case, and it will always remain so," he dered as he took out the Origin Progenitor''s sword from his cosmic ring.


    The moment the sword appeared, an invisible ripple shot out, quickly expanding to cover the entire Fifth Maind.


    The ripples passed through the Heavens Sect, the jiao, Ancestor Tortoise, Bai Wangyuan, and countless stars in the sky, sweeping through the entire Fifth Maind in an instant.


    Everyone nced at each other, feeling confused. What had just happened?


    Bai Wangyuan raised his guard, as he was also wondering what was happening. He quickly examined himself, but he could not find any changes.


    Lu Yin raised the Origin Progenitor''s sword and pointed it upwards. Only he was able to sense that the space within the Fifth Maind had already changed. The sword was trembling so badly that he was barely able to hold it.


    One ripple after another shot through the Fifth Maind, starting from the sword’s sharp edge. The entire Fifth Maind was stirred up, but not one person was able to detect any noticeable changes.


    "My power has stabilized!" Lan Xian eximed in shock before turning to stare at Lu Yin with disbelief.


    Right after Lan Xian made thatment, Highsage Grandmaster and Cai Er realized the same thing, as well as the other Semi-Progenitors. Everyone quickly noticed their own power was stabilizing. The Semi-Progenitors were all able to clearly determine the stability of their inner worlds.


    Following the Semi-Progenitors, the Second Nightking and others at his level attempted to absorb stellr energy. Their power had also stabilized.


    In the middle of outer space, Bai Wangyuan was leftpletely astonished. Energy had stabilized? Had the Fifth Maind’s true universe actually recovered?


    In one corner of the Heavens Sect, Attendant Wu’s mouth hung agape as he stared dumbfoundedly at Lu Yin. The man’s knees gave out, and he crumpled into a kowtow.


    He had witnessed Lu Yin holding a long sword and pointing it to the sky, instantly dispelling Time Poison from the universe and restoring order.


    This man had eradicated Time Poison, a power that manipted time!


    This man was a god! A god who transcended the Monarchs!


    This was the Heavens Sect, and this man was the god of the Heavens Sect.
