[Chat Group For The Death] Chapter 276 - 280

Chapter 276: A life that is completely controlled!

Yang God World

Lucas brought Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen to the sky of the Daqian world. The endless fierce winds and clear air formed the atmosphere of the Daqian world. The violent winds made Xiao Chen, a seven-star Dou Sheng, struggle to endure. Thanks to Lucas's protection, he was able to move freely here.

"The sky in the Yang God world is somewhat similar to the sky in the Dou qi Continent!"

Xiao Xuan sighed, mentioning that he had also explored the uppermost sky in the Dou qi Continent when he was alive. "The sky in the Dou qi Continent has a thick space barrier beyond the endless fresh air and wind."

"I tried to break through that space barrier, but it didn't work. Its defense was beyond my imagination. I fear that only someone at the Dou Di level could break that barrier and reach the higher plane!"

Lucas said indifferently: "There may be space barriers in the Yang God world, but there are absolutely no space barriers in the Daqian world. I didn't bring you here to break through the Daqian world. I'm going to take you to experience the sun and the moon."

Xiao Chen was surprised: "Are there powerful beings in the sun and moon?"

Lucas smiled and said: "Of course! Unlike the four Blood God Kings you defeated, the masters of the sun and moon are in their peak state, just one step away from becoming Yang Gods. They also possess artifacts second only to the King of Artifacts, which is also my goal."

Xiao Xuan nodded and said: "Indeed! Repairing the two King of Artifacts is a major project. If they can absorb these treasures that are just below King of Artifacts level, they should be able to restore them to their most powerful state."

Xiao Chen wondered: "Lord Lucas, can I really handle the masters of the sun and moon? I can barely endure the environment here before even getting close to the sun and moon. The power of beings who can live in the sun and moon must be far beyond mine?"

Lucas said indifferently: "Don't worry! Since I've chosen them as your opponents, I won't let you face them without the power to resist."

Xiao Xuan wondered: "Group Leader, those masters who can survive in the sun and moon, don't they rely on their own strength? If they weren't born and raised near the sun and moon, it wouldn't be easy to survive here for long using strength alone."

Lucas smiled: "That's right, they are indeed magical species born from the sun and the moon."

In the Chat Group

Lo Pei: "In eastern mythology, the Golden Crow and the Jade Rabbit live in the sun and the moon. Wouldn't similar creatures also live in the sun and moon in the Yang God world?"

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, the sun and moon in the Yang God world should be different from stars, right?"

Lucas: "Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit can indeed be born in the sun and moon, but only in the Daqian world. The sun and moon in the outer world of the Yang God are ordinary celestial bodies like the sun and moon in the Marvel world."

Sebastian Shaw: "Aren't the sun and moon in the Daqian world ordinary planets? Although their size is unusual, they shouldn't be beyond the scope of planets, right?"

Lucas: "It's different! The sun in the Marvel world is a fiery star, and the moon is a dead satellite. In contrast, the sun in the Daqian world of the Yang God world is a powerful fire essence, and the moon is a strong cold air disc."

Howard Stark: "A disc? That truly defies scientific understanding."

Lo Pei: "Science is not always reliable. Many discovered phenomena cannot be fully explained."

Lucas: "The sun and moon of the Daqian world are celestial bodies formed by the power of solar and lunar forces, illuminating the vast and boundless Daqian world. Their powerful forces cause instability in the surrounding space."

Lucas: "There are many spaces of different sizes surrounding the sun and moon in that world. Those spaces are rich in resources, and the masters we're looking for also live in those spaces."

Howard Stark: "From a scientific perspective, it's mass, not force, that causes space instability. Gravitation exists due to the effect of mass on space."

Lucas: "..."

Are you picking on me?

Howard Stark: "Hahaha! I'm talking about the situation in the Marvel world. The Daqian world's conditions are definitely different. Even the sun and moon are different, not to mention the basic laws of physics."

While speaking, Lucas led Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen into a space near the sun. Compared to the outside, the environment here was much more hospitable, and Xiao Chen could easily adapt without Lucas's help.

"Go!"

Lucas waved his hand, sending Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen into battle.

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen didn't waste words—they headed straight for the center of the independent space, ready to fight. With their soul power, they could naturally sense the position of the powerful being within this space.

Boom!

The battle erupted instantly, with endless flames bursting forth from a distance.

Simultaneously, a stern voice echoed through the space: "Where did these despicable creatures come from? How dare you intrude upon my Sun Temple to cause trouble—you clearly don't know whether to live or die!"

Lucas shook his head speechlessly. This powerful being of the sun was truly arrogant, calling others "despicable creatures" with just one glance!

He didn't bother responding. Instead, he directly waved his hand, releasing a powerful force to erode this space, intending to refine it and integrate it into his King of Divine Artifacts.

In the chat group, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but say: "Group Leader, what kind of creatures live in this independent space? They seem to despise humans. I consider myself relatively good-natured, but I still can't tolerate their arrogance."

Irisviel said quietly: "You came to rob them—how polite did you expect them to be?"

Xiao Xuan said indifferently: "The strong devour the weak—this is the unchanging law of the cultivation world. The strong are respected, and the weak are like ants. The Yang God world is the same as the Dou qi Continent. It's not wrong for these sun creatures to be robbed by us."

Lucas: "That's right! Don't think these sun creatures are innocent. They've also committed plenty of murders and treasure hunts. To be precise, masters in both the Dou qi Continent and the Yang God world have all engaged in killing and plundering."

Zheng Qizi said helplessly: "Cultivators are like beasts in the animal kingdom. Killing and plundering each other is normal. If killing people and stealing treasures is a fault, it's the fault of the world itself, not the fault of one or two practitioners."

Howard Stark suddenly asked: "Group Leader, do we have a Deadpool in this world? I've checked carefully and didn't find any Deadpool among the mutants."

Lucas: "Deadpool is an artificially created mutant. His mutant genes were transplanted from someone else. Did you find Wolverine? Deadpool became a mutant because Wolverine's genes were implanted in him."

Howard Stark said thoughtfully: "Wolverine—yes, I found him. He's indeed a mutant with incredible survivability. According to him, he even endured the high temperature of a nuclear explosion. However, Deadpool is stronger since he has more mutant abilities."

Lucas said, exasperated: "Didn't I give you Celestial Race technology? With your current technological level, creating a few mutants stronger than Deadpool shouldn't be a problem."

Howard Stark: "I'm looking for Deadpool not because of his multiple abilities. I'm just curious about his unique state—he can see other worlds, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't feel like he lives in a comic."

Lucas: "Deadpool's real name is Wade Wilson, and his occupation is mercenary. You can try to find him, but the information might not be entirely accurate."

Howard Stark asked curiously: "Has there ever been a time when information provided by the Group Leader was inaccurate?"

Lucas: "It has nothing to do with my intelligence, but mainly with Deadpool himself. In addition to seeing other worlds, Deadpool can freely travel through time and space, and even enter other people's worlds."

Lucas: "To be more specific, Deadpool has altered his own past. The world where Uchiha Madara is currently on a mission is the beginning of Deadpool's journey through time and space."

Howard Stark couldn't help but ask: "How did he manage that? When Uchiha Madara met him, he probably didn't have the ability to travel through time and space yet."

Lucas: "In that world, there was a person from the future—a mutant named Cable who brought a time-traveling device. Later, this device was paired with Deadpool, resulting in some remarkable changes."

Lucas: "In short, Deadpool gained the ability to travel through time and space. He not only went back to the past to change his own tragic fate but also entered the world that Gengetsu Hōzuki experienced."

Gengetsu Hōzuki said, speechless: "He went after Wolverine for revenge? Fortunately, the world I entered was a virtual world created by the Traverser Space. Otherwise, I'd have to guard against a troublesome Deadpool."

Lucas: "Wrong! Deadpool didn't seek revenge against Wolverine—he went to kill his uglier self."

Uchiha Madara said, speechless: "Ugly? I took off this guy's mask and saw his face is covered with scars. Although he looks better than the Deadpool in the Logan world, he has no right to mock him!"

Lucas: "The cancer cells in Deadpool and the self-healing factor fight against each other, causing his disfigurement. I don't know the exact principle. In most successful cases of transplanting the self-healing factor, it results in death. Deadpool is a special case."

Lucas: "But when I say Deadpool in Logan's world is ugly, I don't just mean his appearance, but also his completely manipulated life."

Chapter 277: Brothers killing each other again!

Senju Hashirama said with emotion: "Indeed! For a strong man with a proud heart, being controlled like a puppet is truly ugly."

Senju Tobirama: "If that's the case, then there was no need to kill his other self! Couldn't he have helped free him instead?"

Lucas: "Who told you Deadpool is a strong man with a proud heart? He's clearly a shameless mercenary. He killed himself in another world simply because he hated what he saw."

Lucas: "He hated that his other self was being controlled as a tool, so he helped free him. Do you think that transformed Deadpool is still alive? His consciousness was long ago wiped out."

Lucas: "When Deadpool killed his other self, he was killing just a walking corpse. That version didn't even have Deadpool's characteristic chatty nature—Deadpool couldn't recognize that tool as himself."

Howard Stark: "The Wolverine in our world has lost his memory. Group Leader should know about his past, right? When Deadpool changed the timeline, didn't it affect Wolverine's memories?"

Lucas: "Who knows? The timeline of the Marvel world is very chaotic. Besides Deadpool changing the past, mutants from the future also altered history. Remember the Sentinel robots?"

Sebastian Shaw: "I remember! Without the Group Leader, mutants would be wiped out by the Sentinel robots in the future. To solve their own survival crisis, the mutants used the power of time travel to change the past."

Lucas: "But you don't need to worry. Although Deadpool and the mutants have the ability to change the past, Wolverine's past is relatively stable."

Senju Hashirama asked curiously: "Can you tell us Wolverine's story? I'm very interested in him, especially since his self-healing ability is on par with mine."

Lucas: "How should I begin? Wolverine was born into a wealthy family as a child. His family employed a gardener, and he became good friends with the gardener's son, Victor. But what he didn't know was that both he and Victor were mutants."

Senju Hashirama sighed: "Two children who both have mutant genes became good friends—is this fate?"

Lucas smiled and said, "You think this is a matter of fate? I can tell you very clearly, you're wrong! This has nothing to do with fate, but is closely tied to emotions and ethics."

Senju Tobirama said, exasperated: "Emotions and ethics? When you say it like that, Group Leader, I suddenly have a bad feeling. This story is going to be bloody, isn't it?"

Lucas smiled and said, "Correct! This story is indeed bloody, though still not quite as bloody as the stories from the Ninja world. If you listen carefully, you'll find their story has many similarities with the history of the Ninja world."

Uchiha Madara said, impatiently: "Group Leader, stop drawing this out. What kind of past does Wolverine have?"

Lucas: "When Wolverine was a child, he was playing with Victor one night. Victor's father—the gardener of Wolverine's house—stormed into the house and confronted Wolverine's father."

Uchiha Madara said, exasperated: "Don't tell me Victor's father and Wolverine's father were enemies? That after the two fathers had a life-or-death duel, the two children also became mortal enemies?"

Lucas: "That's your story with Senju Hashirama, not Wolverine and Victor's story. Victor's father killed Wolverine's father in a dispute. Seeing this scene triggered Wolverine's abilities—he killed Victor's father by growing long bone claws from his knuckles."

Senju Hashirama said, stunned: "Isn't this still similar? Next, Victor, who was traumatized, should also have awakened his abilities, and the two started to fight, right?"

Lucas: "No! The dying gardener revealed to Wolverine before his death: 'I'm your real father!' Otherwise, why would I say Wolverine's story is about emotions and ethics?"

Senju Hashirama: "..."

Uchiha Madara: "..."

Howard Stark sighed: "It was unexpected yet reasonable—this story unfolds like a drama. Although Wolverine and Victor lost their father at a young age, which is pitiful, I think Wolverine's adoptive father is even more tragic."

Irisviel said, bemused: "Your perspective is still so strange! Group Leader, what happened to Wolverine after that?"

Lucas: "Wolverine revealed his mutant powers, shocking his mother. She was terrified by Wolverine's changes and called him a monster!"

Doflamingo smiled strangely: "Poor child. Rejection from family is the most painful. Group Leader, how did Wolverine react to this?"

Lucas: "Wolverine couldn't accept what was happening and fled from his home like a madman. Victor chased after him and quickly blocked his path."

Senju Hashirama said emotionally: "Did they fight? It really is fate! They were brothers, but became enemies because of circumstances."

Lucas: "No, you're wrong! Victor didn't blame Wolverine, but offered to leave with him. He said that they were brothers, and brothers should support each other."

Shiki the Golden Lion: "Shihahaha! Why do I feel that Victor is similar to Uchiha Itachi? Just not as extreme."

Whitebeard: "Victor was in a helpless position. After all, Wolverine didn't kill his father intentionally, and Wolverine didn't know the truth. More importantly, Victor's father probably wouldn't want to see their brotherhood destroyed!"

Pirate King Roger: "Whitebeard, you seem to understand them very well!"

Lucas: "Whitebeard was attacked and stabbed by his own son during the Summit War. His situation was somewhat similar to Victor's father's, so he can relate."

Whitebeard: "That's right! I've been in a similar situation to Victor's dad, so I understand his feelings. Our foolish sons didn't mean to make mistakes, and the last thing we would want is for their brotherhood to be broken."

Howard Stark: "What happened next? What became of Wolverine and Victor after they left?"

Lucas: "As I mentioned before, Victor is also a mutant. Perhaps because they share blood, their abilities are very similar. Both Wolverine and Victor have self-healing powers."

Lucas: "Their self-healing ability is so extraordinary that they're practically unkillable. They joined the military and spent their youth on the battlefield. With their incredible vitality, they thrived in the army."

Lucas: "Then the two made a major mistake in the military and were sentenced to death by firing squad. However, their vitality and self-healing powers were so formidable that the army couldn't even kill them."

Uchiha Madara smiled and said, "Hashirama, it seems both Wolverine and Victor have stronger self-healing abilities than you! At least your Sage Body would die if your head were removed."

Senju Hashirama refused to accept this: "What kind of attacks did Wolverine and Victor endure? I want to know how powerful their self-healing and vitality really are."

Senju Tobirama said, exasperated: "Brother, your memory is terrible! I recall the Group Leader mentioning they can recover as long as they have a single cell left."

Senju Hashirama was stunned: "Was that said? I don't remember at all."

Uchiha Madara couldn't bear to look directly at him: "Hashirama, please don't showcase your IQ here, okay? Though everyone already knows you're not the sharpest kunai in the pouch."

Lucas laughed: "This is actually one of Senju Hashirama's strengths—his poor memory is an advantage. Even after experiencing defeat, he recovers quickly and continues to fight with renewed spirit."

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, what happened to Wolverine and Victor after joining the military? The experimental base in Logan's world looks like a research facility run by the military."

Lucas: "Correct! The military has an agency specializing in studying mutants. A colonel named Stryker led a mutant task force. Wolverine and Victor were recruited by Stryker and joined his organization together."

Lucas: "Later, while they were retrieving a piece of vibranium, Wolverine became disgusted with Stryker's brutal methods, so he left the organization. Victor stayed behind under the code name 'Sabretooth.'"

Uchiha Madara sighed: "So they parted ways? Group Leader, why didn't Sabretooth leave with Wolverine?"

Lucas: "Because Wolverine and Sabretooth have different personalities—one is kind-hearted, the other brutal and bloodthirsty. Although they have a good relationship as brothers, working together was torture for them both."

Senju Hashirama laughed: "If they just separated, that's nothing serious. Who said brothers must stay together? Separation is also part of growth, as long as they don't end up killing each other."

Lucas snorted coldly: "That's not how it played out! After Wolverine quit the organization, he found a wife and lived in seclusion. Later, both Stryker and Sabretooth tracked him down, wanting him to return to the organization, but he refused."

Lucas: "And then, Sabretooth killed Wolverine's wife. Wolverine rushed to take revenge, but was defeated by Sabretooth."

Senju Hashirama said unhappily, "How could this happen? In the end, it became brothers killing each other!"

Chapter 278: The father is kind and the son is filial!

Uchiha Madara also sighed: "Why did this happen? They used to be such good brothers. And between them, there was nothing that should have destroyed their relationship."

Howard Stark said, speechless: "Sabretooth killed Wolverine's wife—it seems impossible for them to reconcile. Especially since Sabretooth beat and humiliated Wolverine when he rushed to avenge his wife. Why didn't Sabretooth take the opportunity to kill Wolverine?"

Howard Stark: "Wait! Both Sabretooth and Wolverine have incredibly strong vitality and self-healing powers. Sabretooth must know very well that he can't kill Wolverine. But even if he can't kill him, he could have trapped him!"

Senju Tobirama: "That's right! If one has strong vitality and self-healing power, sealing techniques can handle such troublesome opponents very well. Even if there are no sealing techniques in the Marvel world, they must have physical methods of containment?"

Howard Stark: "Physical containment? Of course they have those. I can think of quite a few examples—seal him in cement, bury him alive with his limbs bound, or tie him up completely and throw him into the ocean..."

Lucas: "No! Sabretooth didn't kill Wolverine because he's an alternative version of Uchiha Itachi."

Uchiha Shisui was stunned: "Uchiha Itachi? Could it be that Sabretooth was being manipulated by Stryker and wanted to protect Wolverine in this way?"

Lucas: "No, Sabretooth just wanted Wolverine to come back to him. It's a bit of a complicated relationship between brothers."

Senju Hashirama was stunned and said, "Group Leader, are you kidding me? Sabretooth killed Wolverine's wife just to bring him back? I can't understand this logic. Wolverine was determined to take revenge on Sabretooth."

Lucas: "What if Wolverine's wife's death was staged by Stryker, and it was all just an act? Stryker's target was Wolverine from the beginning. After Wolverine rejected his proposal, he came up with this plan and had Sabretooth act it out."

Howard Stark wondered: "What was his purpose in doing this?"

Lucas: "Experimentation! The military used vibranium as a raw material to make a high-strength alloy—adamantium. Stryker wanted to inject this liquid alloy into Wolverine's body to strengthen his bone claws into a weapon."

Lucas: "Stryker succeeded! To gain the power to take revenge on Sabretooth, Wolverine agreed to Stryker's proposal. He voluntarily participated in the experiment, had the alloy liquid injected into his body, and his entire skeleton became adamantium, including his claws."

Sebastian Shaw: "Why would Stryker give Wolverine this opportunity? Especially after manipulating him—wasn't he afraid Wolverine would seek revenge once he learned the truth?"

Lucas: "Adamantium is very special. Once cooled, it's almost impossible to melt again. To inject the liquid alloy into a living body, the metal must be kept at a temperature of several thousand degrees. In Stryker's assessment, only Wolverine and Sabretooth could survive this experiment."

Senju Tobirama: "Compared to Wolverine, isn't Sabretooth more obedient? Wait, I understand! Since this was the first experiment, Stryker wasn't certain of success. Sabretooth was obedient, so Stryker didn't want to risk using him as the guinea pig."

Lucas: "After the experiment succeeded, before Wolverine got off the operating table, Stryker ordered his subordinates to erase Wolverine's memory, intending to make him his loyal weapon."

Lucas: "But Wolverine, who regained consciousness earlier than expected, overheard these orders. He broke free from the operating table and escaped the experimental base. After another thrilling chase, Wolverine finally returned to the base and fought the transformed Deadpool."

Howard Stark said, speechless: "Deadpool had so many abilities—if Gengetsu Hōzuki hadn't intervened, could Wolverine have defeated him?"

Lucas: "Theoretically impossible, but Wolverine was that world's Child of Destiny!"

Shiki the Golden Lion said unhappily, "That's disgusting! If you can't win and yet still win—can the world get any better?"

Lucas: "Look, Shiki! Every world has its Child of Destiny, and no one can change that. Even in the same world, different eras have different Children of Destiny. For example, in your world, Roger and Luffy are both Children of Destiny, just from different eras."

Whitebeard laughed and said, "Gurarararara! Shiki, you should feel honored. Not everyone has the opportunity to become the life-or-death enemy of two Children of Destiny!"

Shiki the Golden Lion said disdainfully, "Whitebeard, who do you think I am? How could such a boring thing make me proud? I only feel regret and resentment when facing a Child of Destiny!"

Howard Stark: "If Wolverine defeated Deadpool, why did he lose his memory?"

Lucas: "Stryker shot him with a special adamantium bullet—that kind of ammunition can erase memories. Wolverine not only lost his memory, but his wife truly died. Although Wolverine is a Child of Destiny, he's a very tragic one."

Howard Stark said, speechless: "Then he is truly pitiful!"

Han Fei: "Group Leader, I have a question. I've observed that Hong Xuanji seems to have a son named 'Yi.' The child's mother is not a simple woman—she's Meng Bingyun, sister of Meng Shenji."

Lucas: "I know what you want to ask. Your guess is correct—that child is the future Child of Destiny. But now that you've written the 'Book of Changes' in advance, his fate has also changed."

Han Fei sighed: "Regardless, I stole his important opportunity. I want to make amends by taking him from Hong Xuanji's home. I want him to become my disciple, and I will train him well."

Pirate King Roger said unhappily: "Han Fei, what do you mean? If you want to train him, just train him—why take him from his home? It's not like he's parentless."

Han Fei: "That's what puzzles me as well. Hong Xuanji treats Meng Bingyun and her child very poorly. The two of them are like servants in the Hong family because Meng Bingyun is merely Hong Xuanji's concubine."

Lucas: "That's normal! Hong Xuanji's Dao is 'reason,' and according to his principles, a concubine has no status. If he didn't want his Dao to be broken and his martial progress to stagnate, he couldn't stop his wife from mistreating Meng Bingyun and her son."

Whitebeard said, speechless: "What the hell is this Dao? Just because of this, he allows his family to be hurt? And Hong Xuanji's wife—why does she persecute Meng Bingyun's son?"

Lucas said impatiently, "Don't be so naive! How could you, an old pirate who's been a bachelor for decades, understand the open and secret power struggles of elite families?"

Shiki the Golden Lion pondered: "Shihahaha! I think I understand—the price of preventing family members from hurting each other is that he can't continue to grow stronger?"

Whitebeard said dismissively, "What kind of price is that?"

Lucas shook his head and said, "It's not the same! Your strength can no longer improve, but Hong Xuanji can still advance with diligence. He's a man who hopes to break through to the void. How could he sacrifice martial advancement for love?"

Lucas: "What's more, Meng Bingyun's intentions aren't pure. She seems to want to hinder Hong Xuanji from growing stronger. Although they once had a deep connection and shared life-and-death experiences, when feelings meet self-interest, things become complicated."

Liu Xing: "How troublesome!"

Lucas: "Don't worry! Don't forget, they're all under my control now. When I go back, I'll make Hong Xuanji change his mind."

Zheng Qizi said, stunned: "Reshaping his Dao Heart? That's very complicated and risky."

Lucas: "It doesn't matter! Anyway, even if I fail, I have nothing to lose."

Zheng Qizi: "..."

Speechless!

Dongfang Yuechu: "Hong Xuanji watches the Child of Destiny being mistreated for the sake of his own strength. Will Hong Xuanji benefit from the rise of the Child of Destiny? Although the Child of Destiny is his son, there's no guarantee he won't seek revenge!"

Lucas sneered: "Benefits? What benefits do you expect? In the original future, Hong Xuanji personally orchestrated Meng Bingyun's death. The Child of Destiny was suppressed and abused by him since childhood, and eventually became his enemy."

Whitebeard sighed: "This is truly tragic! How can Hong Xuanji have such a nonsensical Dao?"

Lucas said indifferently: "Is it nonsense? Not at all! Pursuing the peak of martial arts is a long and tedious process, but life offers many interesting diversions. Meng Bingyun's love was interesting to Hong Xuanji, but it hindered his pursuit of martial perfection."

Pirate King Roger asked, puzzled: "How could it hinder him? Wouldn't having someone accompany him be more motivating?"

Lucas said, exasperated: "Roger, you're being naive! Human energy is limited—time spent on love means less time pursuing martial arts. Do you understand? For those who pursue the great Dao, emotions are a burden, which is why many choose the path of ruthlessness."

Liu Xing: "What was the final outcome between Hong Xuanji and the Child of Destiny?"

Lucas: "Hong Xuanji and Yang Pan pursued order and absolute rule over the people. The Child of Destiny pursued freedom. Their positions, ideologies, and personal grievances made them completely hostile. In the end, when Yang Pan and Hong Xuanji lost to the Child of Destiny, they were beheaded by him!"

Howard Stark said emotionally: "This truly is 'the father is kind and the son is filial'!"

Han Fei wondered: "Hasn't the Child of Destiny's action caused any negative consequences? As far as I know, filial piety is still highly valued in that world."

Lucas: "Don't worry! Before doing this, the Child of Destiny had already dismembered his own body. He gave up the blood and flesh that Hong Xuanji gave him, cutting off his connection with Hong Xuanji. The Child of Destiny wanted to be a saint, so naturally he didn't leave any leverage against himself."

Chapter 279: Lo Pei, say something fair!

In the chat group, Han Fei sighed: "The etiquette in this world is very strict, just like the Zhou Dynasty in our world. But it's no longer possible in our world—the etiquette there has collapsed."

Lucas said disdainfully: "The existence of etiquette and law is to maintain the rule of the Zhou Dynasty. Now that the Zhou Dynasty is gone, isn't it normal for etiquette and law to collapse?"

Han Fei: "The reason for the collapse of etiquette and law isn't entirely the demise of the Zhou Dynasty. It's mainly because the princes found they could gain more benefits by ignoring etiquette and law."

Han Fei: "For example, the most powerful state of Qin—a brazen and treacherous state with no honesty or etiquette whatsoever—yet it's still powerful enough for other princes to look up to."

Lucas: "The decline of the Zhou Dynasty is the real reason for the collapse of etiquette. If the Zhou Dynasty still had the power to dominate the world, who would dare not abide by its rules? The Yang God world has strict etiquette because the masters value it."

Boom!

At this moment, the space where Lucas was located was directly refined by him with a powerful force, and all creatures in the space were expelled. The entire space, along with countless treasures within it, turned into pure vitality and was injected into the Eternal Kingdom.

The buildings in the round sky rose above Lucas's head, releasing powerful flames of light, and a majesty belonging to the King of Artifacts slowly radiated outward. After refining this space, the damage to the Eternal Kingdom was repaired, and the power of the King of Artifacts was partially restored.

On the other side, with Xiao Xuan's help, Xiao Chen, who had been expelled from the space, used all his strength to kill the sun creatures. The dead sun creatures turned into pure solar fire, which Xiao Chen directly inhaled and refined into his own energy.

"The powerhouses in this world cultivate both spirit and body. After refining them, it's my soul and body that benefit the most. Compared to the strength of my soul and body, my fighting ki grows slowly."

After refining the huge energy in his body, Xiao Chen opened his eyes with a slight frown and spoke to Xiao Xuan and Lucas beside him.

Lucas pouted: "Do you think it's easy to advance to Dou Di? The cultivation system in the Dou qi Continent is divided into ten major levels and one hundred minor levels, with bottlenecks at each level. Do you think becoming a Fighting God has no bottlenecks?"

Xiao Xuan shook his head and said, "Xiao Chen, don't worry! To be honest, advancing to Dou Di isn't that difficult for you. Improving your physical energy and soul energy also increases your chances of advancing to Dou Di."

Xiao Chen said, ashamed: "I'm sorry, I was too eager for quick success."

Lucas laughed: "After you eliminate those lunar creatures on the moon, I'll take you to a special place. That place is full of a magical energy that should improve your fighting spirit."

Xiao Chen was stunned: "Really?"

Lucas said indifferently: "Of course! Let's go—the strength of those lunar creatures on the moon is no weaker than these sun creatures."

In the Chat Group

Sebastian Shaw: "It's done! I've completed the Traverser Space task. That goddess of death, Hela, was really difficult to deal with."

Uchiha Madara: "The situation on my side was easy to resolve. Using genjutsu and physical persuasion, I settled both parties who were preparing to cause trouble. There's a seven-day rest period after completing a task, right? It's really boring!"

Senju Hashirama: "You can say that again! Staying in this white room with nothing to do for seven days—isn't that mind-numbingly dull? I'm so bored now that I can only browse the Traverser Mall to relieve my boredom."

Lucas: "Do you think other Traversers are like you? Seven days is crucial for them. They don't have enough strength, and they definitely go through intense struggles to complete their missions."

Lucas: "Without these seven days to recover emotionally, continuously grinding tasks would make them mentally exhausted. These seven days are also for organizing their gains, like summarizing experience after battle."

Howard Stark: "More than that! Those traversers are different from us. They can become stronger through their own practice. You can't practice in the white room, but other Traversers don't have this limitation."

Senju Tobirama: "When other traversers complete their missions, they form teams, right? Brother, we're still alone—is it because of our strength?"

Sebastian Shaw: "Maybe it's because we haven't completed enough quests yet. Who knows?"

Lucas: "I still have five Traverser Seals in my possession. Who's interested in becoming a traverser? If you're not interested, I can consider giving these Seals to living people in your worlds."

Senju Tobirama: "Let the living use the Traverser Seals? That's a good idea—we could observe the difference between how the living and the dead use them. But there's a problem: those living people aren't members of the chat group, so can we observe them?"

Lucas: "No problem! These Traverser Seals have been modified through the chat group system. Whoever uses them will be monitored by me. Do you have any candidates to become Traversers?"

Howard Stark: "Group Leader, when these living people use the Traverser Seals to enter mission worlds, can you support them if they're in danger?"

Lucas: "Of course! Not only can I watch the live broadcast through the Traverser Space, but I can also locate and travel through it."

Howard Stark: "Then I recommend my son, Tony Stark. Such a great opportunity shouldn't be missed."

Senju Tobirama: "If that's the case, this is indeed a great opportunity. I recommend my granddaughter, Tsunade."

Xiao Xuan: "Can I recommend Xiao Chen? The Traverser Space is also a good place to improve one's strength."

Zheng Qizi: "I recommend my daughter, Tianying. Her strength is also very good."

Han Fei: "I recommend my sister, Honglian!"

Whitebeard: "I recommend my sons—any one will do!"

Namikaze Minato: "Naruto is young, but I think he has the potential to become a traverser."

Lo Pei: "Do you all have no shame? Don't go too far! To be fair, my nephew Chen Long is more suitable for the Traverser job."

Thomas Wayne: "Let my son Bruce go! Doesn't the Group Leader want to transform him? This is an opportunity!"

Everyone in the chat group split up, eagerly recommending their close ones. With Lucas able to provide support at any time, becoming a traverser was a shortcut to becoming stronger!

Gold Thief Woonan said, speechless: "Aren't you afraid that once they enter the Traverser Space, they'll never come back?"

Senju Tobirama: "That is indeed a concern! But the Group Leader allowed us to enter the Traverser Space, so he should have the ability to pull us back. Besides, the Group Leader mentioned before that becoming a traverser using a Traverser Seal is equivalent to being an undercover agent."

Thomas Wayne: "Undercover agents can definitely return, right, Group Leader?"

Lucas: "Of course! If you develop the use of the Traverser Seals well, you might even find a way to return by yourself."

Senju Hashirama: "I suddenly have a bad feeling that the Group Leader doesn't know how to get us back. Is that right?"

Lucas: "How could that be possible? I can bring you back directly. Once the Traverser is printed, you'll be freed from your status as traversers."

Senju Hashirama: "Then we're good."

Lucas: "If you want your relatives and friends to enter the Traverser Space, it's best to have them improve their strength first. There's a good place to enhance their power in the Yang God world. Those who are willing to come should prepare quickly."

Namikaze Minato: "How should we prepare?"

Lucas: "It's very simple—don't wander off! When I send clones to pick them up, they need to be easy to find."

Senju Tobirama: "That's simple enough. Group Leader, when will you pick them up?"

Lucas: "Soon! The creatures on the moon have been eliminated. Next, I'll go to the outer sky to collect the last Immortal Monument. After that, I'll take everyone to that excellent training ground."

Outside World

Lucas was playing with a crystal-clear glass ball—an independent space near the moon where the sun creatures lived. After refining this space, he transformed it into vitality and injected it into the Eternal Kingdom and the Boat of Fortune.

"Let's go to Pan Star!"

With a wave of his hand, Lucas took Xiao Xuan and Xiao Chen beside him, tore through space, and entered the starry sky of the Yang God world.

Soon after, a huge star exuding vitality appeared before Lucas.

In the chat group, Howard Stark said, stunned: "What am I seeing? It looks like people flying around outside a planet."

Lucas replied: "It's the Yuan Magnetic Battle Armor. After martial artists wear it, they can fly to the sky and traverse the universe and starry expanse."

Howard Stark asked curiously: "Which is stronger—this or the armor made by Tony?"

Lucas: "Each has its advantages and disadvantages! The armor made by Tony is more universal—even ordinary people without the slightest strength can wear and use it. But the martial arts armor in the Yang God world requires a strong warrior to power it."

Lucas: "If the strongest armor in this world is worn by the right person, Tony wouldn't stand a chance against it. However, if we're talking about Tony from a parallel world, he'd have the strength to compete."

Howard Stark became interested: "Tony from a parallel world made a particularly powerful armor?"

Lucas: "Yes! In a certain parallel world, Tony Stark made an armor that could hold all six Infinity Stones. And it doesn't have the powerful backlash like the Infinity Gauntlet. Wearing it allows you to freely wield the power of the Infinity Stones. And that Marvel Universe is much stronger than yours, which means those six Infinity Stones are much more formidable than the ones in your universe."

Howard Stark said enthusiastically: "Armor that can hold six Infinity Stones? That sounds fascinating!"

Lucas: "You can try to create something similar, and I'll bring the Infinity Stones to test the finished product."

Sebastian Shaw: "How strong are these people wearing the martial arts armor? They seem very dangerous!"

Lucas: "The weakest are top-tier Martial Saints, and they become even more powerful when wearing matching armor. If you sent Thor without his awakened power, he might not be able to defeat them all. In some aspects, they're actually quite similar to Thor."

Howard Stark: "In what aspect?"

Lucas: "Flying! Martial artists don't have the ability to fly before they reach the pinnacle of immortality. They can fly because of their weapons. Similarly, Thor can't fly on his own—he flies because of his weapon."

Outside World

As Lucas approached Pan Star, he attracted the attention of patrolling warriors around it. As if they had practiced thousands of times, these Pan Star warriors immediately sent a warning signal to Pan Star while entering a picture scroll.

Simultaneously, the entire star began to change. A monstrous force of qi and blood shot up from Pan Star, the light in the void around Pan Star flickered, and a massive guardian star formation emerged.

In the chat group, Liu Xing couldn't help but ask: "Group Leader, what exactly is happening?"

Zheng Qizi couldn't hide his consternation and asked: "Is Pan Star really that powerful?"

Lucas said indifferently: "This is the first powerhouse of ancient times—Emperor Changsheng and his apprentice, the first Holy Emperor—Pan. This is the land of dreams they jointly created. How could it be weak or easily disturbed?"

Dongfang Yuechu keenly noticed a phrase: "The land of dreams?"

Lucas: "Yes! Both Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan wanted to guide humanity in the Yang God world, but they couldn't do it. At least not in the Daqian world."

Uchiha Madara wondered: "They're so strong—how could they not achieve it?"

Lucas: "Although they were well-known masters in the Daqian world, at that time there were countless Yang God powerhouses and Void-Shattering masters. Not to mention the Creation of Yin Yang Dao and Tai were not easy to mess with."

Lucas: "Both had Yang God and Void-Shattering powers, and both possessed King of Divine Artifacts. Although their strength wasn't comparable to Emperor Changsheng's, he couldn't kill them either."

Uchiha Madara: "I see! So they went to the outer sky and found an uninhabited planet to experiment with their ideas?"

Lucas: "That's right! They implemented their ideas here, aiming to build an ideal country. They planned to wait for this place to develop, then use the thoroughly refined King of Artifact, the Immortal Monument, to transfer people from Pan Star to the Daqian World. They intended to use Pan Star's huge population to assimilate the residents of Daqian World and realize their idea of guiding humanity."

Chapter 280: We...surrender!

Looking at the dense formations outside Pan Star, Liu Xing couldn't help but complain: "Pan Star's defensive formations are too numerous, aren't they? Even the palace of the Daqian World doesn't have so many guardian formations!"

Lucas said with a smile: "The reason is very simple. Emperor Changsheng is the greatest master of alchemy and formations in the Yang God world. The King of Artifacts he built—the Immortal Monument—is an artifact composed of countless formations and runes."

Xiao Xuan: "These formations give me a very dangerous feeling. Even I don't have the ability to forcibly invade Pan Star."

Lucas: "The outer sky's living environment is very harsh, and every living star has descendants of ancient demons dwelling on it. Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan have high hopes for Pan Star, so naturally they must provide it with sufficient protection."

Outside World

After the endless formations were activated, stone platforms flashing with thunder emerged from Pan Star. At the same time, terrifying beings exuding powerful auras appeared on the periphery of Pan Star.

In the chat group, Liu Xing said, stunned: "What are those stone platforms? The thunder they release seems to be thunder that belongs to the world itself. I can feel the unique aura from this thunder."

Lucas: "There are no heavenly tribulations in the thunder on planets outside the sky, so there's no way for soul cultivators to survive their tribulations. But Pan Star is a place where Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan have high hopes—how could they not have tribulation thunder on this planet?"

Zheng Qizi suddenly said: "So in order to make Pan Star produce Thunder Tribulation Ghost Immortals, Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan created those stone platform instruments?"

Lucas: "Yes! Those stone platform instruments are called Heavenly Thunder Platforms. When there's strong thunder in the Daqian World, they can absorb the lightning tribulation from there and store it for ghosts to survive their tribulations."

Zheng Qizi: "So those Thunder Tribulation Ghost Immortals outside Pan Star all used the Heavenly Thunder Platforms to transcend their tribulations? I thought they used some method to quietly go to the Daqian World for their tribulations! Otherwise, why are there so few of them?"

Lucas: "Although Pan Star has Heavenly Thunder Platforms that can produce Thunder Tribulation Ghost Immortals, these instruments are all in the hands of Pan Star's great families. Only children of these families are qualified to cultivate their souls, while ordinary people can only cultivate martial arts."

Zheng Qizi: "Resource monopoly brought about by power and status? It seems the ideal world created by Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan is nothing special after all."

Lucas: "Do you look down on Pan Star? Those on Pan Star who aren't qualified to cultivate their souls still look down on your great world! They have no emperor, and their planet is led by leaders and ministers elected by the people. They're proud of this and think the people of your great world are all uncivilized natives."

Liu Xing said solemnly: "Leaders and ministers elected by common people? Although this is a good way to listen to the opinions of the people, won't it cause problems? As the human population increases, doesn't average intelligence decline?"

Zheng Qizi worried and said, "Are the people of Pan Star wise enough? If people's wisdom isn't high enough, too much attention to public opinion could be self-defeating!"

Lucas: "Don't worry! Those qualified to be leaders and ministers are all children of the Pan Star families. No matter who the people choose, there won't be incompetent people in high positions."

Liu Xing said disdainfully: "Then why are they so proud? Pan Star's so-called public opinion is just a guise to fool the people."

Howard Stark: "I wouldn't say that! When people aren't wise enough, it's also prudent to limit their choices. Their actions might be correct, but their motives are definitely questionable."

Outside World

Lucas looked at the Pan Star leaders who appeared before him and said with a smile: "Greetings! People of Pan Star, are you ready for a new era? The plans of Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan are things of the past—are you ready for a new future?"

The leader of Pan Star snorted coldly and asked, "What do you mean?"

If they weren't afraid of Lucas's strength, the masters of Pan Star would have rushed forward and attacked Lucas on the spot.

Lucas said indifferently: "It's quite simple! I'm here to announce that I'll be taking over your central world! Will you cooperate obediently or resist?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, a grumpy minister on Pan Star's side said angrily: "You brazen invader, go to hell!"

The magic circles outside Pan Star flashed, and a group of Pan Star masters joined forces to attack. Their powerful energies gathered into a beam of righteous light that bombarded Lucas.

"Moral Wrath!"

A powerful qi and blood energy rose up from Pan Star—the joint force of tens of billions of people on Pan Star. The magic array prepared by Emperor Changsheng and Holy Emperor Pan for Pan Star could mobilize the power of every human on the planet.

This enormous qi and blood rushed into the formation, greatly enhancing the power of the Moral Wrath qi, multiplying the imposing manner of Emperor Changsheng's ultimate move, and bursting forth with the formidable power of a star destroyer.

Lucas merely said, "Really? Nice technique."

"It's a pity that you're too weak to use this properly."

Lucas sneered and stretched out his palm, lightly grabbing the beam of righteous light in front of him. His powerful force directly shattered the beam.

"My turn!"

After smashing the joint attack of Pan Star with one move, Lucas swung his palm toward Pan Star. Terrifying high-temperature flames spurted from his palm, condensing into a huge flaming hand large enough to crush stars, grabbing toward Pan Star.

"Unite with me!"

The leader of Pan Star shouted angrily, and a huge thought appeared above his head. It was the soul crystallization of a Yang God powerhouse—the strongest weapon left by Holy Emperor Pan to Pan Star, and also the symbol of Pan Star's leadership.

The Yang God Thought was powerful, and the nine Heavenly Thunder Platforms communicated with each other, causing extremely terrifying fluctuations. The Yang God Thought and the Nine Heavenly Thunder Platforms actually burst forth with an aura that only a King of Divine Artifacts possesses.

On Pan Star, another force of qi and blood rose into the sky, transforming into energy for the formations surrounding the star, releasing powerful energy to form a barrier, trying to resist the approaching flame hand large enough to destroy stars.

Boom!

The flame hand and the power released by Pan Star collided. The Pan Star masters vomited blood and were sent flying backward. Dense cracks appeared in the leader's Yang God Thought, looking shocking.

The nine Heavenly Thunder Platforms were also in a state of near destruction, and most of the formations outside Pan Star were melted by the high-temperature flames. Before Pan Star's masters could recover from the shock of barely blocking the attack, Lucas stepped in front of them.

"I'll give you one more chance—survive or perish?"

Standing before the Pan Star masters, Lucas burst forth with a terrifying aura that made them feel hopeless, directly shattering their resolve for stubborn resistance.

"We... surrender!"

After the leader of Pan Star spoke these words, it seemed as if all his energy and spirit had been drained away. He aged hundreds of years in an instant, suddenly transforming from middle-aged to elderly.

"Very good!"

Lucas nodded with satisfaction and, with a wave of his hand, took away the super magical instruments such as the Heavenly Thunder Platforms and the Yang God Thought from the Pan Star powerhouses, placing them into his own King of Artifacts.

The Pan Star powerhouses felt a pain in their hearts but did not resist. Disarming the losers was what every victor would do.

Seeing this, Lucas smiled with relief and said to the powerful Pan Star leaders: "Give me the martial arts cultivation method left by Holy Emperor Pan, and then take me to the place where the Immortal Monument is suppressed. I will help you fix the crisis facing Pan Star."

In the Chat Group

Liu Xing questioned: "Is that right? Pan Star's strength is so formidable, yet they also face a crisis? With the strength they've shown, if they came to the Daqian World, they could easily overthrow the sun and moon powers. The current power of the Daqian World is completely no match for Pan Star."

Lucas: "Pan Star's crisis comes from within, not from external enemies. Although Pan Star's ruling institutions aren't perfect, they've solved the problems that plagued ordinary people in their world, and almost all natural and man-made disasters have been eliminated."

Lucas: "In the absence of natural and man-made disasters, Pan Star's population has grown wildly to the point where the planet can no longer sustain it. If Pan Star hadn't been plundering and expanding, the population problem alone would have destroyed them."

Lucas: "Now the life-bearing planets in the outer sky have been almost entirely occupied by them. If Pan Star doesn't want to perish because of civil strife, they must migrate to the Daqian world."

Howard Stark: "Using war to plunder more resources while reducing the population that has become a burden? This isn't a wise choice because this approach has an endpoint."

Howard Stark: "If the population grows uncontrollably, sooner or later it will reach a point where even an entire world can't sustain it. What happens then? The places that can be invaded and expanded will eventually all be occupied."

Howard Stark: "You must take measures in advance, otherwise the crisis that Thanos has been worried about will eventually appear in this world. Powerful civilizations that collapse due to resource and population problems aren't uncommon throughout the universe."

Lucas: "Don't worry, I'll handle it."

Realizing that the powerhouses in the central world weren't sincerely surrendering to him—on the contrary, some were thinking of deceiving him and backstabbing him when they regained their strength—Lucas quietly used the Pure Lotus Fire illusion on them, extinguishing their ambitions.

Not long after, a huge picture appeared before Lucas. On the picture was the figure of a stalwart man. The painters in the Yang God world had special abilities, and the things they drew could give people a three-dimensional feeling.

In the chat group, Zheng Qizi looked at the three-dimensional figure of the stalwart man through Lucas's eyes and couldn't help but comment: "Are those the acupuncture points of the whole body that need to be opened for martial arts training?"

Lucas: "That's right, and it's the complete version! This stalwart man is the first emperor of ancient times, Pan, who left a complete method of martial arts cultivation for the ideal world he created."

Liu Xing sighed: "No wonder this man gives me a kind feeling. Only the ancient sage emperor can have this kind of impartial and selfless character."

Suddenly, Liu Xing frowned and said, "Wait, the number of these acupoints is wrong, isn't it? Ninety-nine are missing!"

Lucas: "Haven't you noticed the map behind Holy Emperor Pan? The mystery of the last ninety-nine acupoints is in it."

Xiao Xuan: "Isn't that map the map of Thousand World in the Middle Earth of the Daqian World? I remember seeing this map in the palace."

Zheng Qizi: "Yes, this is the map of the Middle Earth and Thousand World. This is also the map of the orthodox human realm established by Holy Emperor Pan, and it hasn't changed for tens of thousands of years. I thought the map behind Holy Emperor Pan was just to promote his achievements, but it seems I was overthinking."

Dongfang Yuechu: "Zheng Qizi, have you realized something?"

Zheng Qizi: "Not at all! Did Holy Emperor Pan record the secrets of the last ninety-nine acupoints? Did he hide the secrets of the last ninety-nine points in the map to test the comprehension ability of future generations?"

Lucas: "Wrong! The mystery of the last ninety-nine acupoints is difficult to express through language and diagrams. Unlike other acupoints, the last ninety-nine acupoints need to be obtained from the outside world."

Zheng Qizi: "Obtained from the outside world?"

Lucas: "Yes! One must condense ninety-nine points with one's essence, then merge them with the ninety-nine space nodes in Middle Earth and Thousand World. When they absorb enough spatial power, they'll resonate with the land of the Daqian World. After that, one takes them back into the body and transforms them into ninety-nine acupoints."

Zheng Qizi: "That sounds difficult! It's better to comprehend this kind of thing yourself—it's somewhat troublesome when others try to explain it."

Lucas: "That's right! Even if others explain it, it's useless. The ninety-nine space nodes need to be sensed telepathically."

Dongfang Yuechu: "Group Leader, are you going to collect the last Immortal Monument?"

Lucas: "And the leader of the five god-tier kings who were suppressed there—the Immortal God King. He's also a valuable asset."

Xiao Xuan asked curiously, "How much can it improve Xiao Chen?"

Lucas: "What a pity! The Immortal God King is my goal and cannot be used by Xiao Chen."

Lo Pei: "The Group Leader disregards the other four god kings but is determined to obtain the Immortal God King. Is there a big gap between them?"

Lucas: "Of course! The Immortal God King is the King of Demon Gods, and his flesh and blood are fundamentally different from other Demon Gods. Let's just say that after refining the Immortal God King's flesh and blood, I can shatter the void more easily."

Xiao Xuan: "No wonder the Group Leader hasn't cultivated the martial arts of the Yang God world for a long time—it turns out you were waiting for the Immortal God King."

Lucas: "That's right! Martial arts in the Yang God world are very troublesome to practice. I have to wait until everything is ready before practicing. A complete cultivation method and the flesh and blood of the Immortal God King are indispensable!"
