Chapter 558. The Coming Era of Chaos, a Decision

The fall of a Starfield Lord would definitely send shockwaves throughout the entire universe. Almost everyone would pay attention and raise their guard.

The Extracosmic Heavenly Demons must have anticipated this long ago. Even so, they had still done what they did, which meant they were not afraid of the consequences. They might even have a next move prepared already.

According to Lu Yuan's guess, that next move would come soon, and it would not be the last.

That was why he felt this was only the beginning. At this thought, Lu Yuan's expression also turned solemn.

But he knew that whatever happened, things would still be as he had said. They could only respond as the situation unfolded. At such a critical time, they could only wait for the enemy to act first.

Right now, Lu Yuan's only hope was that the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons would not descend in large numbers for the time being. If a powerhouse above the Supreme Immortal Realm appeared, things would become extremely troublesome.

No one in this universe would be a match for such a being. Not even him.

He had thought about whether he could take another step forward and break into the Supreme Immortal Realm, but he also understood that this was unrealistic.

The reason was straightforward.

He had only just broken through to Celestial Seat Immortal, and that breakthrough had already taken him a long time.

Trying to climb another realm would definitely not be easy, especially when that level was the peak of the Immortal Realm.

After that, the discussion ended. Mo Gang left as well to understand more about the situation.

Jiang Taiyu also began using his own methods to gather information from across the universe.

He knew that since the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had acted, they would not stop. They would only face more troublesome matters moving forward. In short, the days to come would not be peaceful.

For now, they had to find a way to maintain the stability of the entire universe while dealing with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and the two forces that had yet to appear.

Only strength could accomplish all of this.

That was right. Power remained the answer.

Jiang Taiyu felt an intense headache. He understood his power and his limits perfectly well.

It was already considered great that he could reach the Supreme Immortal Realm in this life. If he wanted to advance further, the chance was extremely slim.

Previously, he had always believed that with this strength, even if he could not defeat the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, he could at least maintain the stability of this universe.

But now? That was clearly impossible. Even the Starfield Lord of the Mohe Clan had fallen.

If those beings targeted him, could he survive it?

Jiang Taiyu did not know, but he knew it would be very difficult.

And if even stronger Extracosmic Heavenly Demons descended, what could he do then?

Thus, they had to nurture someone who surpassed the peak of the Immortal Realm. Only then could they truly face the crisis head-on.

He could not do it, and neither could most people in this universe. However, Jiang Taiyu still felt there was hope. At this moment, he turned his gaze to Lu Yuan.

After thinking it over for a while, he soon made a decision.

Jiang Taiyu immediately said, "Little Friend Lu, to deal with the coming crisis, I would like to invite you to the Desolate Flame Starfield."

The moment these words emerged, Lu Yuan froze and said, "Senior, what does my going to the Desolate Flame Starfield have to do with dealing with the crisis?"

He had originally thought he would temporarily remain on the Celestial Star, wait for information from all sides, and then find a way to deal with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

Why leave now? And to the Desolate Flame Starfield at that, the Jiang Clan's home territory.

Of course, since Jiang Taiyu had said this, there was naturally a purpose, so Lu Yuan waited for him to continue.

"You know that my Jiang Clan descends from one of the Human Sovereigns and has our own foundation. The most important part of that foundation was also left behind by our ancestor. All this time, it has never been used.

"Back then, our ancestor left behind a final instruction saying that this object could only be opened at a certain special time. Now, the entire universe is about to fall into crisis. I am wondering whether this counts as that special moment."

Jiang Taiyu spoke calmly, then continued, "So I want you to go to the Desolate Flame Starfield, to the Jiang Clan's current ancestral star, and open that thing."

Although he did not state what it was, anything left behind by the Human Sovereign Celestial Emperor had to be extremely important.

Lu Yuan also heard another meaning in his words.

The Jiang Clan possessed that inherited foundation, yet they had never used it. Or rather, they were temporarily unable to use it. Otherwise, they would not have taken it out only now and asked him to give it a try.

He did not immediately answer. Instead, he glanced at Jiang Ningxian and Jiang Haokong beside him.

At that moment, both of them had widened eyes and were clearly shocked, but neither of them spoke or expressed anything. In the end, Jiang Ningxian looked at Lu Yuan and slowly nodded, indicating that he could go.

When Lu Yuan saw this, he did not hesitate much and said directly, "All right. I can."

Since even Jiang Ningxian agreed, there was naturally no issue. Moreover, he also wanted to know what the foundation left behind by the Human Sovereign Celestial Emperor was, and why it made even someone like Jiang Taiyu treat it so solemnly.

Besides, Lu Yuan did indeed want to visit the Desolate Flame Starfield. After leaving Earth, he had indeed intended to visit the major starfields.

"Good. If there is nothing else, we can set out now."

Jiang Taiyu seemed unwilling to delay. He did not know when the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and the two forces would act, nor what kind of disaster their next move would bring. Because of that, he felt the sooner they moved, the better.

Even Lu Yuan was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt they really needed to hurry.

Furthermore, the problem on the Celestial Star had already been resolved, so they could leave.

"Father, let me go with you," Jiang Ningxian said then.

Hearing this, Jiang Taiyu thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed. He felt this was necessary. Moreover, he could tell what was going on between his daughter and Lu Yuan.

As her father, he could be considered to be fulfilling his daughter's wish by giving the two more time together.

Thinking of this, he turned back and looked at his son. "Don't even think about it. Stay on the Celestial Star in peace. Before long, some elders of the clan will arrive as well. For the time being, follow them. Understand?"

As a Starfield Lord and a Supreme Immortal, there were times when he could not treat both children completely equally. Especially when he spoke to his son, his expression was quite stern.

Of course, he was still protecting Jiang Haokong in his own way. He had clearly said that elders of the clan would also come.

Jiang Haokong opened his mouth, wanting to speak, but in the end, he had nothing to say. Feeling rather tired, he still nodded.
