Peerless Taoist

The world was about to undergo a drastic change, and even the legends could not stop it. The legend of the Eternal Night of the past, Xu Changye, had plotted and planned for so long because of the sudden change. He had carelessly chosen to possess Shen Linglong, and in the end, he had fallen.    

Lu Yu knew this news, but he only knew a few bits and pieces from the Pangu Axe. However, he did not know the full picture.    

"There are some remnant memories in my mind. They are the most original state of the many Origins."    

The voice of the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor suddenly became intermittent, "A certain... terrifying thing is about to descend. All living things are no match for him. If we continue to defend our positions, more and more demons will come in. We won't be able to defend ourselves."    

"What terrifying thing?" Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly asked.    

However, the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor shook his head. He also did not know.    

At this moment, the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor was extremely weak, but his body had become even more tender. In the end, he could not even soar into the sky, and he fell straight down from the sky.    

His current state was like a baby in a cradle. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. He could not even speak.    

Lu Yu hurriedly caught the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor. However, in the next moment, this body suddenly shattered. A violent aura of thunder suddenly burst out from his body.    

"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"    

The terrifying thunderstorm quickly spread in all directions.    

Many of the Venerables of the Heavenly Thunder Sect were also cultivating lightning attribute Cultivation Methods. However, when they felt the thunderstorm, their expressions changed and they retreated.    

Lu Yu's eyes flashed. He saw a fragment of the thunder rune in the thunderstorm.    

The rune was drawn into a corner of the word 'Thunder'. It could be combined with the thunder origin fragment that Lu Yu had refined before.    

"Heavenly Thunder Ancestor, it really is formed from the original source." Lu Yu's heart skipped a beat.    

When he thought about how the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor had displayed his might and fought against the crowd without being at a disadvantage, Lu Yu immediately understood that the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor had used the power of the original source.    

The original source in the world had quite a lot of potential. Although Lu Yu had also refined a portion of the thunder origin, it would still take a long time for him to fully unleash its power.    

However, the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor did not need to be so troublesome. He was originally formed from the thunder origin fragment, so he did not have any restrictions when he used the power of the original source.    

When the thunder origin rune floated in midair, it only paused for a moment before it fell into Lu Yu's body.    

In an instant, Lu Yu felt that the power of thunder in his body had been greatly replenished. In fact, there were many thunder techniques in his mind.    

Lu Yu could feel that many of these Cultivation Methods were exactly the same as the Cultivation Methods in the Scripture Tower of the Heavenly Thunder Sect's secret realm. However, the Cultivation Methods in these memories were even more profound and mysterious.    

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yu felt that he had benefited a lot.    

"Listen up, from today onwards, follow Lu Yu. Although Gao Junlin has been defeated by me, his ambition still exists. If I don't have my protection, the Heavenly Thunder Sect won't be able to hold on for long. From today onwards, you all will follow Lu Yu!"    

Ancestor Heavenly Thunder's ancient voice spread in all directions.    

In an instant, the expressions of the many reverends of the Heavenly Thunder Sect changed. Many of them looked at Ancestor Tianlei in disbelief.    

"Ancestor, you can't be in trouble!"    

"We still have many elixirs and treasures here that can help you recover."    

The Venerables all revealed panicked expressions. They had also expected this, but when Ancestor Heavenly Thunder reached the end of his life, many people were still unable to accept it.    

"Everything in the world will come to an end. There's nothing to be regretful about. If you all live well in the future, it can be considered as not letting the inheritance of the Heavenly Thunder Sect end like this..."    

When this voice reached here, it stopped abruptly.    

In fact, the real Heavenly Thunder Ancestor had already died a long time ago, and this sentence was something that the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor had left for everyone in advance.    

At the end of his life, the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor was still very calm, and he did not have the slightest fluctuation of emotion towards death.    

However, Lu Yu understood why. The Heavenly Thunder Ancestor was born from the original will. Since he chose Lu Yu, he had actually bet his own fate.    

As long as Lu Yu could grow to a certain extent in the future, he might be able to revive the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor.    

"There are some people in the world who are blessed with great luck. These people are quite precious …"    

Suddenly, Lu Yu's eyes lit up. He thought of a possibility.    

This calamity might be quite serious, and the entire universe would not be able to escape from this calamity.    

However, some existences were blessed with great luck in the heavens and the earth, and they had quite a deep fortune. They could often turn misfortune into blessings and survive this calamity.    

Xu Changye might have known this long ago, so he had already set up his own Residual Souls in every world, wanting to find the true person who had inherited the Heaven's Will.    

The method that Xu Changye had chosen was to possess someone who had inherited the Heaven's Will after he had screened out the person who had inherited the Heaven's Will. Then, he would occupy the person's fate and become the true person blessed with great luck.    

As for the Heavenly Thunder Ancestor, he had chosen to attach himself to such a person.    

He was originally the original will of the heavens and the earth. It didn't matter even if he was refined by someone. If Lu Yu could really grow up in the future, he might be able to overcome this great calamity and revive him.    

This was a huge gamble, but Lu Yu knew very well that if Ancestor Heavenly Thunder did not do so, he would probably be destroyed in other ways in the future.    

Many legendary experts like him had lived for countless years, and they were all old foxes.    

He seemed to be very good to Lu Yu, and he even bestowed many inheritances to Lu Yu. However, Lu Yu knew very well that when he fought with the Saint Devils, Ancestor Heavenly Thunder might have done it on purpose.    

The other party also wanted to test Lu Yu to see if he was really a person with great luck. It was also because Lu Yu had passed the test that Ancestor Heavenly Thunder did not hesitate at all and directly bestowed the remaining lightning origin rune to Lu Yu.    

There was naturally no such thing as a pie falling from the sky.    

"What a good plan. However, this time, you have also done me a great favor."    

Lu Yu himself was also a person who was clear about gratitude and grudges.    

Ancestor Heavenly Thunder might have had his own selfish motives, but in terms of achievements and heart, he had indeed given Lu Yu a lot of benefits.    

"Don't worry, I'll protect the remaining people of the Heavenly Thunder Sect." Lu Yu muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
