At this moment.
Everyone understood Lu Yuan’s intention.
Submit or die!
"We surrender wholeheartedly, willing to be at your service, and swear never to betray you for eternity!"
Faced with the overwhelming disparity in power.
The patriarch of the Xuanqing Sect had no choice but to acknowledge reality, bowing his head to show submission to Lu Yuan.
Seeing the patriarch surrender, the other disciples dared not harbor any resistance and willingly opened their minds, allowing Lu Yuan to plant the Slave Seal in their Divine Souls.
"All right, everything in your Xuanqing Sect will proceed as usual in the future. It will only be when the Ant Race is in danger that you will be called upon."
"This is a Cultivation Technique I acquired by chance. If you diligently cultivate it, you might have a chance to step into the Upper Three Realms in the future."
Lu Yuan was well-versed in the Art of Manipulating People.
A stick, followed by a sweet jujube.
Instantly moved many disciples to tears of gratitude.
Even the deeply shrewd patriarch of the Xuanqing Sect couldn’t help but waver at this moment, reducing his resentment toward Lu Yuan significantly.
This is a technique to reach the Upper Three Realms!
The entire Xuanqing Sect had never possessed such an Ultimate Skill.
If they could master this Cultivation Technique, the sect’s Power would surely soar!
After subduing the Xuanqing Sect.
Lu Yuan hurried to the Lin Family next.
He always acted with caution, well aware of the principle that weeds must be uprooted to prevent future troubles.
Originally, he also intended to subdue the Lin Family to serve him, just like the Xuanqing Sect.
But who would have thought Lin Hao’s mother not only refused but also lashed out, daring to hold a grudge against Lu Yuan.
There was no one to blame for his ruthlessness in response.
"You vile creature, you killed Hao’er and still have the face to come to my Lin Family?"
"Seems I’ve been too merciful, making you think I am easy to talk to?"
Lu Yuan sighed.
Not long after.
Piles of corpses, blood illuminated the skies.
The entire Lin Family, hundreds of people, were completely annihilated by Lu Yuan, not even sparing those Lin Family members scattered in other regions!
The news spread.
Several nearby Secular Dynasties were all shaken!
And the patriarch of the Xuanqing Sect, upon hearing this news, was so frightened his eyelids kept twitching.
Fortunately, he immediately saw the worsening situation and promptly led the entire sect to surrender.
Otherwise, with Lu Yuan’s ruthless methods of wiping out entire families, the entire Xuanqing Sect would likely have ended up like the Lin Family!
After finishing all this.
Lu Yuan handed the Soul Seal over to a Heaven-shaking Demon Ant King, and after confirming there were no further hidden dangers or omissions.
He decided to set off for the stars.
As he left the Valley of Ten Thousand Insects.
From the jungle.
Came the sudden sound of rustling.
Lu Yuan turned back to look.
Seeing tens of billions, an endless sea of the Ant Race, standing in the mountains and forests, watching him leave with great reluctance in their eyes.
"You should all go back. I hope to see the day when you transform into humans soon,"
Lu Yuan waved his hand, smiling freely.
All the antennae of the Ant Race swayed in the wind, as if waving goodbye to Lu Yuan.
The Ant Race’s lifespan is short.
Even though they have embarked on the path of cultivation, they can at most live for a few decades.
Only those powerful Ant Cultivators might possess a longer lifespan.
Lu Yuan understood well.
This farewell might mean most of the Ant Race would quietly die in this remote land, never to see their Ant Emperor again in their lifetime.
Nonetheless, although the Ant Race is born humble, their Life Force is as tenacious as weeds, destined to reproduce through generations.
Therefore, as long as these Ant Race members grow successfully, they will eventually have a day to meet again!
