As time flowed gently by, Emperor Chu Yu of Emperor Chuâs Lineage appeared to be much more low-key during the distribution of tasks among the seven First-Rank Marquises.
And in the blink of an eye, half a century had passed.
âFinally, itâs my turn to have priority again,â Emperor Chu Yu, with the help of the First-Rank Marquis Command, had discovered a newly emerged emperor-level task.
Even among the First-Rank Marquises, emperor-level tasks were rare, and the seven had to choose in sequence.
âGuardian of the Ghostfire World?â Emperor Chu Yu gazed at the task, his eyes ablaze with excitement, âThis task might even be more valuable than the âNorthern Sea Beast Forestâ.â
âMy priority rightsâŠâ
With a cold smile, Emperor Chu Yu did not hesitate to claim the task for himself.
After being taught a lesson last time, he had kept a low profile for half a century. Now, at this crucial moment, he made his move again. As he seized the task, the other six First-Rank Marquises were also informed simultaneously.
âHmm? Interesting.â
âIt seems weâve underestimated this Chu Yu; heâs quite bold.â
âHe dares to snatch it directly? Heâs asking for death!â
âNo hurry, Marquis Chu Yuan will surely be the first to act.â
The other First-Rank Marquises each had their own thoughts.
Indeed, upon realizing that Emperor Chu Yu had dared to use his priority rights to claim the emperor-level task, Marquis Chu Yuan was immediately consumed by nameless rage that scorched his entire body, and even his soul.
âA newly advanced being of Primal Chaos Realm with weak strength should just bear it! How dare he compete with me?â Marquis Chu Yuan was furious.
In his view, only those at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm had the qualification for a fair competition! A newly advanced being from the Primal Chaos Realm, even with the aid of unlimited godly bodies and the resources of a First-Rank Marquis for cultivation, still had a huge gap in strength and was not qualified to compete with them!
âEmperor Chu Yu!â Marquis Chu Yuan contacted Emperor Chu Yu, transmitting his voice directly, âYouâve got some nerve to snatch an emperor-level task.â
âWhat? Am I, a First-Rank Marquis, not qualified to seize an emperor-level task?â Emperor Chu Yu responded indifferently.
Transmitting his voice across the vast distance, he was not afraid of that madman.
âIt seems the lesson from last time didnât work on you,â Marquis Chu Yuanâs voice transmitted with murderous intent.
âI hear you, Marquis Chu Yuan, are very powerful. Among the seven First-Rank Marquises, you are the strongest? Even fighting many at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm without meeting an adversary?â Emperor Chu Yu said with interest, âI am currently inside my mansion; if you have the guts, kill your way here!â
Marquis Chu Yuan paused.
Storm into the First-Rank Marquis Mansion?
Even a Guest Elderâs Cave mansion could harness a trace of the power of Chu Capital City, something that even beings who had transcended the Primal Chaos Realm feared immensely.
And a First-Rank Marquis Mansion could harness even more of the cityâs power! Even some ancient Godly Kings wouldnât dare to charge in recklessly.
âYouâre just going to hide in your mansion?â Marquis Chu Yuan said.
âYou guessed right, I have no mandatory tasks before the protection period! So during the protection period⊠I will stay inside the Marquis Mansion,â Emperor Chu Yu responded leisurely, âI wonât step out of the mansion. What can you do to me?â
Marquis Chu Yuan was infuriated.
âI will not yield on any task,â Emperor Chu Yu said coldly, âYou and I are both First-Rank Marquises. Think you can suppress me? Delusional!â
âVery well, thatâs just great!â Marquis Chu Yuanâs face twisted.
Emperor Chu Yu immediately cut off the communication, unwilling to deal with that madman any longer. Inside his own Marquis Mansion, Emperor Chu Yu was completely fearless.
After cutting off the transmission, Emperor Chu Yu thought for a moment, then immediately contacted Luo Feng, âGuest Official Luo He, I have some conflicts with the other First-Rank Marquises. Itâs best if your disciples donât go outside for the time being.â
âOh?â Luo Feng, who was in seclusion, received the message, âDonât worry, I will instruct them.â
Luo Feng had entrusted Morosa, Moyu Qingyan, and Primoridal Ancestor with instructions.
âŠ
âAaaaah!â
Marquis Chu Yuan, driven to fury, caused thunder to flicker as he instantly tore apart the pavilion building he was in, and even two maids outside the pavilion were caught in the aftermath. The maids were turned to ash in an instant amidst their terror and despair.
âDamn it, damn it,â Marquis Chu Yuanâs eyes were completely filled with lightning.
Just then, a figure appeared high in the sky, none other than Marquis Chu Ji.
âChu Yuan!â Marquis Chu Ji rebuked, striking at the soul, restoring some clarity to Marquis Chu Yuanâs eyes, who then looked up to see Marquis Chu Ji descending.
âBig brother,â Marquis Chu Yuan gritted his teeth, âThis Emperor Chu Yu did it on purpose, he is deliberately provoking me.â
âYes, he is deliberately provoking you, making you go mad again, so that you break the laws set down by our Primoridal Ancestor. Then, he can imprison you in the Ghostfire World for ten thousand years,â Marquis Chu Ji scolded.
Marquis Chu Yuan paused, looking at the only brother he trusted.
âYouâve come this far, become a First-Rank Marquis, after enduring many hardships,â Marquis Chu Ji said, âYou have exceptional talent, and you even have hope to transcend the Primal Chaos Realm! At this time, donât fall for the otherâs scheme; if you go mad and act recklessly⊠it will only amuse Emperor Chu Yu.â
Marquis Chu Yuan nodded.
âIn all matters, pay attention to the laws. As long as you donât break the prohibitions, thatâs all that matters.â Marquis Chu Ji was also helpless; this brother of his still had some sense left, but as he cultivated the Primordial Secret Method inheritance, his temperament became increasingly uncontrollable.

âMany of the Thunder Ancient Countryâs Imperial Clan members have uncontrollable tempers, bursting out at times to confront even Godly Kings. My brother has certainly inherited some of the traits of the Thunder Ancient Countryâs Imperial Clan,â Marquis Chu Ji thought to himself.
Having inherited the bloodlines of two great imperial clans, and after becoming a being of Primal Chaos Realm, Primoridal Ancestor personally guided Marquis Chu Yuan in his cultivation, causing his strength to soar.
âSummon a few Guest Elders to come over, weâll discuss and find a solution,â Marquis Chu Ji said.
âAlright,â Marquis Chu Yuan nodded, reining in his temperament.
A moment passed.
Marquis Chu Ji, Marquis Chu Yuan, and the three guest elders gathered. These five Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm existences discussed the matter, which was also a way for Marquis Chu Yuan to vent his anger! Given Marquis Chu Yuanâs temper, failing to vent his anger⊠would only make him grow more irate.
âEmperor Chu Yu said that during the protection period, he would stay within the Marquis Mansion and not take half a step outside,â said Marquis Chu Yuan, his ugly face full of thick black hair bristling with fury, âI really wish I could smash him into a pulp! Fine, if he wonât step out, I refuse to believe his wife and children wonât!â
âTo act against the close relatives of a First-Rank Marquis is equivalent to taking action against the Marquis himself,â added Marquis Chu Ji from the side.
âIâm not going to kill them, just rough them up a bit,â Marquis Chu Yuan, his body emitting black Qi, insisted, âAs long as they donât die, itâs merely a minor punishment.â
âTaking action against relatives is crossing the line,â Marquis Chu Ji shook his head.
âThis isnât allowed, that isnât allowed, then what can we do?â Marquis Chu Yuan said angrily.
The man in blue robes on the side chuckled, âMarquis Chu Yuan neednât hurry. The reason Emperor Chu Yu is unyielding is because he wants to compete for resources⊠so we should strike at what he cares about the most. Isnât his biggest help at the moment that guest official Luo He? There are no laws against disciplining a guest official, and not even death would be investigated.â
In the Flame Wind Ancient Country, there were many guest officials, and strife among them was common. The Ancient Country couldnât possibly manage it all.
âRight, the most powerful person beside him is that Luo He,â nodded Marquis Chu Yuan, âBut Luo He is at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm level, certainly practicing several life-saving secret techniques, making it too difficult to kill him outright.â
He wasnât confident either.
âWhile we may not be able to kill him outright, as long as we destroy him once and take away the treasures he carries, it will certainly be a huge blow to him,â the man in blue robes said.
âA strong person like him would carry the treasures he has accumulated over the long years with him. Die once, lose all his treasures, and even if he could survive by using life-saving techniques, the pain would be immense,â said an old woman at his side.
âWith our means, we might not be able to kill him outright, but taking his treasures will not be difficult,â said an old man whose left arm was encircled by golden rings leisurely.
âGood.â
Marquis Chu Yuan nodded, âHeâs hiding himself, so weâll act against his guest official! Letâs see if this guest official Luo He will dare to continue helping Emperor Chu Yu!â
âŠ
Luo Feng did indeed entrust Morosa, Moyu Qingyan, and the Primordial Ancestor, so even if they went out, they were just Divine Power Incarnations taking a stroll.
In Chu Capital, Thousand Star Tower.
âI was once suppressed by the Primordial Cosmos for most of a Reincarnation Era, intently perceiving the myriad states of beings and the movement of all things,â The Primordial Ancestor sat in a small building within the Thousand Star Tower, drinking as he observed the lives of the beings outside, âYet the myriad states and rules of movement of the beings in the Land of Origin are much more mysterious.â
After obtaining a wealth of inheritance from the Heartshadow Sect, the Primordial Ancestor started integrating many experiences of his predecessors and began to create a Dharma at the Eternal level for the âVirtual Universeâ.
As the Dharma started to take shape, the Primordial Ancestorâs strength improved significantly.
âSometimes, whatâs real is also an illusion, and an illusion can also be reality,â the Primordial Ancestor smiled.
âWith my Dharma in its initial success, I can form an âIllusionary Avatarâ, which possesses a third of my True Bodyâs strength,â the Primordial Ancestor said contentedly, âI hear that even among beings of Primal Chaos Realm, there are few who have the method of creating an Avatar.â
Suddenlyâ
A ripple descended.
The Primordial Ancestor saw a figure in a blue robe standing to the side, its intangible might already completely binding the Primordial Ancestor.
At this moment, the Primordial Ancestor felt as though the blue-robed figure was like an endless heaven and earth, leaving no room for resistance, with the gap between them being unimaginably huge.
âAre you the Primordial?â the blue-robed figure looked at him. Indeed, this was an Eternal True God Level Physical Body, not some Divine Power Incarnation.
âMay I know what the Great Saint desires?â the Primordial Ancestor rose to pay respects.
âI hear that the guest official Luo He went to great lengths for you, bringing you to Chu Capital,â said the blue-robed figure leisurely, âSend a message to Luo He promptly, tell him⊠if he doesnât come, youâre as good as dead.â
The Primordial Ancestor was slightly taken aback.
âYes, I will send the message immediately,â The Primordial Ancestor still kept a very low profile.
âŠ
Inside Luo Fengâs Cave Dwelling.
Luo Feng was summoned from his secluded cultivation.
âPrimordial Ancestor, is there an urgent matter?â Luo Feng looked at the Primordial Ancestor.
âLuo Feng, my Illusionary Avatar in the cityâs Thousand Star Tower encountered the guest official âGreat Saint Tianyuâ of Marquis Chu Yuan. He wants you to go there immediately, otherwise he will kill me,â said the Primordial Ancestor, âBut donât worry, he only captured my Illusionary Avatar.â
âIllusionary Avatar? Great Saint Tianyu couldnât recognize it?â Luo Feng was surprised.
He hadnât even cultivated an Avatar himself yet.
The inheritances from the Heartshadow Sect didnât have any Secret Technique for Avatars. Could the Primordial Ancestor possibly have managed to cultivate an Illusionary Avatar?
âThe Illusionary Avatar is also a real Physical Body, just weaker than my main self,â the Primordial Ancestor explained.
Luo Feng nodded slightly. If the Primordial Ancestor was captured, he would have been somewhat troubled.
Now?
Luo Feng was only filled with burning fury.
They had started targeting people close to him? Luo Fengâs killing intent grew even more intense.
âYou must be careful. If they ask you to go there, there may be an ambush waiting,â the Primordial Ancestor cautioned.
âDonât worry.â
Luo Feng nodded, then stepped forward and disappeared into the Void.
