Chapter 512

He pondered the events of the past few days, feeling dissatisfied with his own performance.

The Supreme Dao Ancestor appeared before him, his faintly revealed holy aura inspiring awe.

The Supreme Dao Ancestor sat down, gazing at Lu Yuan, who stared deeply at him.

"Lu Yuan, you were too weak when facing the Red Lotus Sect."

The Supreme Dao Ancestor said sternly, "Cultivators should be decisive and ruthless, showing no mercy to enemies."

"Only then can you protect yourself against dark forces."

Lu Yuan lowered his head, silently staring at the floor.

He realized the Supreme Dao Ancestor's words were correct, "Yes, Master."

"I really was somewhat weak back then," he replied in a low voice.

The Supreme Dao Ancestor continued, "Lu Yuan, you bear a great responsibility, having mastered profound immortal arts and lethal weapons."

"But that doesn't mean you can let your guard down, and you need to learn to act decisively."

"Dark forces are growing stronger; you must stay vigilant at all times, ready to face any possible threat."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's gaze became resolute.

"Yes, Master. I understand."

The Supreme Dao Ancestor nodded slightly.

"Lu Yuan, you have many loyal companions and great power."

"But you must protect yourself while protecting them."

"When facing dark forces, you cannot be soft-hearted."

Lu Yuan silently nodded, understanding the Supreme Dao Ancestor's teachings.

He recalled his previous clashes with the Red Lotus Sect and the Nether Shadow Sect, which now seemed indeed too weak.

He resolved to be more decisive and ruthless on the path of cultivation. Although the Supreme Dao Ancestor's teachings made Lu Yuan reflect on his past weakness, he also realized his situation in Imperial Apex City was extremely perilous.

As he was lost in thought, Mo Di walked up to his side.

"Lu Yuan, I suggest you leave Imperial Apex City, at least hide for a while."

"The conflict between the Red Lotus Sect and the Nether Shadow Sect has escalated; this place will soon become a battlefield."

"I will return to the Dragon Clan to explain the situation and inform them of our plan of action," Mo Di said softly to Lu Yuan.

Hearing Mo Di's suggestion, Lu Yuan nodded gratefully.

"Thank you, Mo Di."

"I understand."

He knew they needed a safe place to continue their plans and recuperate.

Although he felt some reluctance, for the sake of the team and the bigger picture, leaving Imperial Apex City was the only wise choice.

Before departing, Mo Di handed Lu Yuan an ancient secret arts manual.

"This is the Dragon Clan's secret transmission, the art of Dragon's Chant Heavenly Sound."

"You can grasp some of its methods and techniques to increase your own strength."

Mo Di explained to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan received the book, looking gratefully at Mo Di.

"Thank you, Mo Di."

"I will cherish this opportunity and quickly comprehend the secret arts in this book."

Mo Di smiled and nodded, "Train well, Lu Yuan."

"I believe you will grow ever stronger."

With Mo Di's farewell, Lu Yuan decided to set out and leave Imperial Apex City. In a tranquil courtyard of Thunderbolt Fortress, Lu Yuan felt his heart grow heavy.

Following Mo Di's advice, he decided to leave Imperial Apex City, but for the upcoming plans and recuperation, he still needed a secure base.

Just then, a soft, floating voice broke the silence.

"Lu Yuan? Is that you?" a familiar, gentle voice called out.

Lu Yuan turned his head and saw Su Liyan walk into the courtyard.

Her pure white elegant attire shone especially bright in the sunlight.

A warm feeling rose in Lu Yuan's heart as he smiled at her: "Su Liyan, how did you come to be here?"

Su Liyan smiled faintly, walked over and sat beside Lu Yuan.

Her eyes held a hint of anticipation and excitement.

"Lu Yuan, I heard you are about to leave Imperial Apex City."

"I have a proposal."

Su Liyan said solemnly.

"What proposal?"

Lu Yuan asked, slightly curious.

Su Liyan narrowed her bright, spirited gaze: "The Heaven Thunder Gate is one of the world's strongest cultivation holy lands, mastering mysterious lightning immortal arts."

"They are very interested in your strength and wish to accept you as a disciple."

Su Liyan's proposal stirred Lu Yuan's heart.

As a cultivation holy land, the Heaven Thunder Gate's research and mastery of immortal arts are unmatched.

If we could obtain their help, our strength would be further enhanced.

But Lu Yuan still felt some hesitation: "Su Liyan, I received the Dragon's Chant Heavenly Sound from Mo Di, and just now when parting with him, he urged me to train diligently."

Su Liyan lifted her eyes, full of expectation, gazing at Lu Yuan: "Lu Yuan, I know you look forward to that book."

But the Dragon Chant Heavenly Sound is only a partially useful method.

If you are also spiritually wise, clever and quick-witted, studying at the Heaven Thunder Sect will allow you to explore a larger stage.

Lu Yuan furrowed his brow slightly, his heart wavering.

Su Liyan, you're right.

Su Liyun nodded: "Then are you willing to go to the Heaven Thunder Sect with me?"

We can cultivate together there and explore higher cultivation realms.

Lu Yuan looked at Su Liyan's determined and gentle gaze, and his hesitation gradually faded.

He knew Su Liyan meant well for him, and he also wanted to seek a breakthrough on the path of cultivation.

Finally, Lu Yuan smiled slightly: "All right, Su Liyan."

I am willing to go with you to study at the Heaven Thunder Sect and feel the charm of its thunder-based immortal arts.

Su Liyan happily nodded: "Great!"

We will become the strongest partnership!

After the two exchanged many discussions and suggestions about future plans, they decided to set out for the Heaven Thunder Sect.

Lu Yuan's heart was filled with anticipation and excitement, full of confidence for the upcoming cultivation journey. After leaving Imperial Extreme City, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan headed east and finally arrived at the gate of the Heaven Thunder Sect.

They saw an old man in a green robe standing at the gate, leading a team to welcome them.

Welcome, Senior Lu Yuan and Senior Su Liyan, to the Heaven Thunder Sect.

I am Elder Liu Qinyuan of the Heaven Thunder Sect, the old man said with a smile.

Lu Yuan felt somewhat surprised, not expecting that this elder was actually a member of the Liu family.

They immediately followed Liu Qinyuan along the winding path, feeling the spiritual energy grow denser.

After entering, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan were led to a spacious and majestic hall.

In the center of the hall stood an ornate throne, on which sat a middle-aged man in splendid attire.

This is the Sect Master of our Heaven Thunder Sect, Sect Master Song Fengzi, Liu Qinyuan introduced to Lu Yuan.

Song Fengzi rose from the throne, smiled at Lu Yuan, and said: "I've heard you are a talented and promising cultivator; my Heaven Thunder Sect welcomes your joining."
