A powerhouse interfering in the source space, disrupting control—this truly exceeded Lu’s expectations.

  Tianyuan’s source, influenced, exploded.

  Shattered into four, chaotically flying within Five Phoenix’s vortex source, as if to scatter it alive.

  Lu’s divine sense surged madly; this scenario unencountered in simulations.

  Instant crisis.

  Mishandle: not just Tianyuan doom, Five Phoenix gravely wounded.

  Unwanted.

  Lu in Thousand Blades, vortex center; spiritual pressure chessboard floated, eyes lines danced—sense via board controlled quartered Tianyuan.

  Vortex unstable; quarters amplified.

  Stabilize: find extreme in instability.

  No platform simulation.

  Direct action.

  Error tolerance vital—mistake: abyss.

  Two days: mind controlled.

  Quartered: four smaller orbs.

  Rotation: instability persisted.

  Lu’s riskiest yet.

  Shattering Five Phoenix: gamble.

  Merging Tianyuan: tightrope.

  Pondered long—ruthless; kicked one orb out.

  Three triangular, orbiting vortex.

  Most stable.

  Life-death seven days.

  Pressure firmed will, sense strengthened.

  Finally…

  Stable.

  Lu smiled.

  ...

  Heaven-earth huge head halt.

  Terrifying aura.

  Beyond Infant—what level? Unknown, but power felt.

  Infant: top mid-martial cap.

  Break Infant: high martial qualify.

  Details unclear.

  “Young Master Lu!”

  Empress coughed blood, pale—no grace.

  Beyond crack breath: irresistible, despair.

  True “immortal”!

  Despair—Lu appeared.

  Head stopped.

  “Lu… succeeded?” Du mad joy.

  Seventh: no sign—thought fail, death ready.

  Lu!

  Dark light.

  The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

  Tianxu, Ye eyes brilliant.

  Lu float, Thousand Blades, white飘—elegant.

  Looked sky-cover face, weird smile.

  “Interfered source: you?”

  Lu to huge head.

  Crack torn.

  Owner eyes turned—locked Lu.

  “World source gone?”

  “What did to source?!”

  Sharp voice boomed land.

  Lu smiled, breeze whipped robes, leaned chair.

  “Guess.”

  Atmosphere froze.

  Huge head eyes killing intent.

  Guess?

  Guess what!

  Sky crack stabilized—hands holding: strained.

  Crack healing.

  Head mouth roar.

  Boom!

  Clouds burst.

  Deep breath—spit!

  Breath: sharpest sword, bombed Lu.

  Mind move.

  Thousand Blades silver flew—silver lotus bloom front.

  Breath hit.

  Bang!

  Silvers exploded.

  Ground pierced, pits.

  Beyond Infant.

  Silvers return—rain, restacked chair.

  Lu calm sky head.

  Blocked?!

  Head squinted.

  Attack suppressed Infant.

  Source not gone!

  Restabilized?!

  “Impossible… collapsing source can’t restabilize—how?!”

  Asked again.

  Lu hands blanket thighs, smile: “Guess again.”

  Head raged.

  Sick?!

  Below.

  Empress lashes trembled—laughed.

  Young Master… naughty.

  Furious yet helpless: refreshing.

  Lu: Tianyuan safe.

  Relief.

  Seven days: toughest.

  Waiting doom: madness.

  Now: dawn.

  “Court death!”

  Head roar.

  Pushed forward—face changed; crack contracting.

  Not withdraw: decapitated.

  But intolerable!

  Guess…

  Twice!

  Ant provoke!

  Unbearable!

  Gamble.

  Pay!

  Roar!

  Mouth energy brewed.

  Spit: gold greatsword destruction!

  Below.

  Lu shifted.

  Sword qi: cutting flesh soul!

  Sword intent!

  Dao realm!

  Vs. Nie, Jing: outrageous.

  Beyond Infant reason?!

  Lu no surrender.

  Waited attack.

  Strong—admit; source restored: shackles back.

  Crack healing: no descent.

  Bold idea!

  Use crack—sever head!

  Raised—chessboard front, piece fell.

  Lock unlocked.

  Board: orb.

  Kicked Tianyuan source!

  “Source?!”

  Head squinted—greed.

  Shocked: Lu shot orb.

  Silly?!

  Fear dao—bribe?

  Head dispersed sword—spoil source: cry.

  Purpose: devour.

  Dispersed, mouth swallow.

  But…

  Spit out.

  Face black!

  Wrong taste!

  Orb surface: pale flames.

  “Heaven-earth mystic fire?!”

  “Backed by high martial?!”

  “Damn bald donkey tricked!”

  Low roar.

  Retreat crack…

  Crack seventh ago—not: head stay.

  Lu smiled.

  Late.

  Raised—grip orb.

  Boom!

  Bone fire surged—burned orb.

  Sky fire curtain!

  Flames net sky!

  Entangled head.

  Head roar.

  Rapid withdraw—else decapitated!

  Now: pit!

  Anger provoke.

  Head in—orb lure, cut retreat, crack behead!

  Audacity!

  Scheme!

  Extraordinary!

  “Open!”

  Head roar.

  Pores sword qi intent!

  But source-fueled fire: too strong!

  Intent extinguish no.

  Source stable: world recover.

  Crack slow heal.

  Bit by bit.

  Head futile roar.

  Pfft!

  Neck severed—head cut!

  Head eyes wide, fury—stared Lu.

  Ant schemed!

  Lu calm.

  “Your temper poor.”

  Shook head.

  Not all good-tempered like Lu Ping’an.

  Neck blood sprayed.

  Splash!

  Torrents river—crack cascade.

  Ground blood river.

  Land dyed.

  Head nine heavens smash—“dong”—ground.

  Quake.

  Cracks mountains.

  Empress, Du stunned.

  Breath-kill existence.

  Head severed?!

  Mountain head…

  Du speechless.

  “Feels revenge…”

  Tianxu mouth: “Interfered source—nearly doomed Young Master…”

  Empress eyes shine—white snow blood rain unstained Lu, lips: “Young Master… vengeance swift! Great!”

  Tianxu, Du weird gaze.

  Serious?

  Noble Empress?

  Changed.

  But relaxed.

  Tianyuan calamity passed!

  Alive.

  Seven losses heavy.

  Bitter Buddha near annihilated, forces wounded.

  But alive.

  Blood surged, area red.

  Lu chair descend.

  Empress fixed hair—sped Lu.

  “Young Master, success?”

  Eyed clear Lu.

  Lu leaned, tapped guard: “Source stable, but…”

  Du, Tianxu stunned.

  “Stable not safe…”

  “From him: collapse unsavable.”

  Lu to all.

  “I fused Tianyuan to my world’s—stabilized collapsing.”

  Tapped slow.

  Tianxu, Du puzzled.

  “Fusion step one… step two vital.”

  Scanned Tianyuan strong.

  “Young Master, speak.”

  Du grave.

  Lu no immediate—chair, surroundings.

  Head blood sea.

  Energy dissipated.

  “Step two: world migration.”

  Lu.

  “Tianyuan to my world.”

  “Or world fusion.”

  Words silenced Du et al.

  Fusion: Tianyuan no more.

  “Young Master, other choice?”

  Du.

  Lu nod: “Stay, no fusion.”

  “No source: degrade, qi exhaust, cultivators mortal.”

  Lu.

  No saint—stabilize: utmost.

  Leave source? Five Phoenix doomed.

  Unwilling.

  Tianyuan: fuse or end-law.

  Du, Empress, Tianxu top—decide for world.

  Normal: little feel.

  “Good.”

  “Daqian agrees.”

  Empress.

  No qi, end-law: realm loss, lifespan end, age—unwanted.

  “But Daqian retain force.”

  Lu nod: natural.

  Absolute Blade Ye: “Agree.”

  Tianxu, Du surprised—decisive.

  “No die… stronger.”

  Ye.

  Tianxu teeth, flush: “Tianxu agree.”

  Lu nod—Du.

  “Young Master, three days?”

  Du teeth, hands clasped, black whipped peak, blood sea world.

  Lu no refuse: “Three; first fuse Daqian, Absolute, Tianxu areas.”

  Du smile: “Thanks.”

  Lu to Empress, Ye, Tianxu.

  Raised.

  Qi gathered—three drops.

  Threw.

  “Fusion start: notify.”

  Words—thunder flash, gone.

  Reappear: severed head.

  Flick—bone fire.

  Head burned—fist pearl.

  Formed.

  Shrill roar.

  Blur face pearl.

  Mouth—sword qi.

  Soul-seizing—Lu dazed, shot.

  Slashing Lu.
