To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck - Chapter 760

Chapter 760: Chapter 333: Ascension of the World

After realizing that Jinyun had other intentions in his heart, Lu Yuan did not play any tricks with the opponent.

Now, the great calamity of the Four Extremes is about to come, and the entire Nine Provinces and Ten Domains, with billions of living beings, are all deeply trapped in the calamity, unable to transcend it.

As the lord of Chu State, ruling over half of the state and tens of millions of people, he naturally had the responsibility to lead the people of Chu State out of this disaster.

However, this disaster involved the Heaven and Earth Calamity after all, even though Lu Yuan had supported the Cultivating Taiping Essentials for more than a decade, his cultivation should already be the first person in the world.

But in the end, he was simply an entry-level cultivator who had condensed some qi, to have him save the Heaven and Earth was nothing more than a joke.

On the other hand, people such as Jinyun who belonged to the immortal sects that had been passed down for millions of years, might have some ancient methods to deal with the Heaven and Earth Calamity by relying on their ancient heritage.

Moreover, seeing the other party visiting him today, he specially clarified the matter.

Lu Yuan would not be so naive as to think that the other party had genuinely come to find him because Chu State had achieved hegemony and had the qualification to dominate Yangzhou, all for the sake of the people of the world.

If the other party had such a kind heart, they could have visited Chu State a few years ago, so that Lu Yuan could have made better preparations.

Why wait until now?

So, the other party’s visit this time definitely had some purpose.

Jinyun was a representative of the sect, and his purpose was the purpose of the sect.

In other words, after seeing the increase in Chu State’s strength, Feishuang Tao had some interest demands and wanted to achieve them through Chu State.

This was the purpose of the other party’s thousand-mile journey to announce the calamity and to befriend Chu’s king.

Understanding this point, there was no problem.

Lu Yuan was not afraid of the other party’s schemes, nor was he afraid of being used by them.

In fact, the interaction between people in the world is nothing more than a process of mutual use.

You should not be afraid of being used, nor should you be angry about it.

Because what is truly suffocating and frightening is not having any value to be used at all, which is a complete denial for a person.

In the beginning, the Dan Ding Path was able to use Lu Yuan so he could borrow their help to overcome the initial financial crises.

Yue Country used Lu Yuan, and he used their banner to establish Changsha State.

The Snow Plains Nomads were ready to use Lu Yuan, and he was about to receive a spiritual woman and a lot of precious silver tales.

None of these uses were necessarily well-intended, but in the end, who could take advantage of them was just a matter of means.

Lu Yuan was able to laugh until the end and naturally become the winner.

Now Feishuang Tao also had this idea, which naturally wasn’t a bad thing for him. Instead, it gave him an opportunity to find out the other party’s details and get involved.

So upon realizing this, Lu Yuan didn’t hesitate anymore and directly stood up and bowed to Jinyun: “Fellow Daoist has the world in his heart, after hearing your words today, you saved tens of millions of people in my Chu State. The people of Chu State will never forget this kindness and virtue.

If Fellow Daoist has any command, please do not hesitate to ask, as long as it’s within our power, we, the people of Chu State, will never shirk.”

He made his attitude clear.

He accepted the favor and was willing to cooperate with Feishuang Tao.

As expected,

Jinyun, hearing the meaning behind Lu Yuan’s words, showed a faint smile on his face, and couldn’t help but praise the Chu King’s understanding in his heart.

However, since the other person was the lord of a country and also a cultivator who had condensed qi, Jinyun did not dare to show off too much, so he quickly stood up to avoid Lu Yuan’s salute and then returned the salute similarly.

Then he said, “Your Majesty need not be so courteous. Today, this poor Daoist comes for the sake of all living beings in the world, not to seek gratitude. However, regarding the imbalance of the Four Extremes and the change that has occurred in Beiming Youdu, may I ask if Your Majesty has any solutions?”

Jinyun first spoke righteously and then immediately changed the subject, bringing the conversation back to Beiming Youdu.

Lu Yuan also slightly avoided Jinyun’s salute, and then listened to the other’s questions, furrowing his brows and pacing in the chamber.

Looking at the scene of flying snow and plum blossoms outside, his eyes were filled with confusion.

Previously, when he hadn’t heard about Beiming Youdu, he still loved the beauty of this Heaven and Earth, enjoying the immersion.

But now that he knows about the imbalance of the Four Extremes, he already knows that the early blooming of plum blossoms is a sign of a great calamity.

In this way, looking at the snow-covered plum blossoms, they become disturbing and terrifying.

Because it represents the death of countless people, the devastation of the entire Heaven and Earth, and the endless calamity.

Once you understand the heavy implications of this, how can you still enjoy the last bit of happiness before the end of the world without any guilt or compassion in your heart?

At least as the lord of Chu State, bearing the hopes of tens of millions of people, Lu Yuan felt he could not do it.

Throughout his cultivation journey, he took the path of gathering Qi Luck, and the people of Chu State played a significant role in this.

Without those people, Lu Yuan would not have achieved what he has today.

At this point, if he were asked to give up the foundation of Chu State and abandon the 8 million people, let alone whether he could bear to do it, he would not be able to pass this hurdle in his heart.

If possible, Lu Yuan still wanted to do his best to help the people of Chu State, and even the people of Yangzhou, to survive this Heaven and Earth disaster.

In doing so, he would not have been in vain with this encounter in the Jiangnan region.

Of course, while he said he would try his best to save Yangzhou, Lu Yuan did not promise to stay here and die with the whole realm of Yangzhou.

He wasn’t that selfless, that great, or that altruistic.

As an immortal with an endless lifespan, a soul from another world, Lu Yuan felt some attachment to the Nine Provinces World, having lived here for decades.
