Halfway up the mountain.

The international journalists were still in their original place.

After all, Lu Yuan had instructed them earlier that they must stay, so no one dared to leave.

What if they were targeted?

In the eyes of these journalists.

He was a terrifying Great Demon God that should not be provoked.

And the livestream naturally continued, but the situation in the ancient castle remained unknown to anyone.

The audience kept watching, very curious about what had happened to the Divine Knight and the Holy Angels.

However, one thing was certain.

These two people were likely about to face a great calamity.

Especially the domestic viewers, who were even more convinced of this.

The power of King Lu, they were very confident about, especially after the nuclear explosion.

Given his aggressive nature, regardless of whether it was the Divine Knight or the Holy Angels, their outcome would definitely not be good.

Finally.

After waiting some more time.

Lu Yuan came from the direction of the ancient castle to halfway up the mountain, appearing in the livestream.

The journalists immediately backed away, especially upon seeing the Golden-winged Roc. Their faces turned pale as they recognized it as a fierce creature, wondering if it might suddenly erupt and start eating people.

"Here he comes, King Lu is here."

"Why is it only King Lu, where are the other two?"

"I think they must be dead. Setting traps and detonating nuclear weapons, they deserved to die."

Domestic viewers were delighted when Lu Yuan appeared, and some speculated that both the Divine Knight and the Holy Angels were dead.

After all, they knew King Lu was ferocious and unrestrained, and it wasn't surprising for those two to end up this way after provoking him.

As for Mr. Ji and Mr. Yun, they both sighed in relief upon seeing him appear.

Even though they knew that not even a nuclear explosion could kill him now, charging up Mount Olympus was still worrisome.

Such concerns were valid.

But now, things seemed to have settled.

At this moment, halfway up Mount Olympus, Lu Yuan looked at the livestream camera with a calm expression: "The Divine Knight and the Holy Angels from the Vatican Church Court, feeling deeply guilty, have confessed to their respective gods and taken their own lives. Starting today, I officially announce that the Human Alliance is beginning its formation."

"I hope those watching this livestream will join within a month. For specific details, you can consult the official Chinese authorities."

With just one sentence, without saying anything more, Lu Yuan climbed onto the back of the Golden-winged Roc.

Then, man and roc transformed into a golden stream of light, disappearing into the sky.

However, what he said through the livestream.

Was now known to everyone worldwide.

The Human Alliance was beginning to form.

All major forces were to participate.

Although he didn't mention what would happen to those who opposed it, it was evident that the Divine Knight and the Holy Angels were a precedent.

Claiming they felt deeply guilty and chose to repent and take their own lives, but in truth, everyone knew the reality.

Thus, Lu Yuan's intention was crystal clear; whether they agreed or not, the establishment of the Human Alliance was imperative.

And with that, the livestream officially ended.

Nearly every country knew clearly.

What should be done next.

To oppose?

They had to consider if they had the capability.

In front of the livestream screen, Mr. Ji and Mr. Yun glanced at each other.

This scene was just like when they faced the Exotic Beast Kings on Jade Emperor Peak in the past.

They knew very well, there was a lot of work ahead, as after this event, who would dare to resist?

As for the domestic audience, they were all thoroughly excited.

Not because of the so-called Human Alliance being established.

But in their eyes.

King Lu had created a true miracle, unharmed under a nuclear explosion, single-handedly ascending Mount Olympus, killing both the Divine Knight and the Holy Angels, possibly leaving not even a complete corpse, just one man with a domineering presence over the world!

A true king of humans, the strongest human being indeed.

For a while.

Lu Yuan's prestige reached an unparalleled height.

And after Lu Yuan left Mount Olympus and spoke those words in front of the camera.

Countries around the world reacted, quickly starting to release announcements, contacting Mr. Ji and Mr. Yun and others.

Even if there was some unwillingness in their hearts, what could they do?

The two representative figures were dead, and the strongest thermal nuclear weapons were useless. What could they possibly hold onto now?

In just one day, the global situation changed dramatically, a sweeping transformation in one night.

Mr. Ji, Mr. Yun, and others got busy full-time, even though this was already in their plans, they hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.

Many believed.

Lu Yuan was affiliated with the authorities.

How could they manage if they opposed him, what would the outcome be?

Let's not talk about others, starting with Longevity Gene and Celestial God Technology.

They knew what choice to make.

Even the Wu Zhou Group became more low-profile than before, with major figures almost never appearing in public.

Time.

Passed bit by bit.

Days later, in the clouds.

Lu Yuan sat on the back of the Golden-winged Roc, not closing his eyes, but pulling out a communicator to check various recent news.

His previous statement obviously had a significant effect, countries acted quickly, starting to make contacts and announcements on the same day. The preliminary work for forming the Human Alliance had been determined, with all aspects bustling with activity.

"Both tasks have been completed, it's time to plan the next steps."

Lu Yuan glanced around and seemed to be entering the domestic territories.

There were indeed several places he could go afterwards.

But deciding where to start was somewhat difficult for him.

Because in his memory, some places were indeed mystical, but it seemed the time wasn't right yet.

The world would go through several major transformations before various mythical items would appear. For instance, famous mountains and rivers such as Tai Mountain would become even more mysterious and fully awaken, but for now, they were just beginning, and visiting them was not feasible.

Another point was the Spirit Fruit and Exotic Herbs from Mount Olympus stored in the Meridian Heaven-Repairing Furnace.

Some of them were not fully matured and couldn't be preserved for long, so he needed to find a place to plant them.

A place that was both safe and permanent was necessary.

"It's a bit of a headache."

Lu Yuan rubbed his temples, his mind working rapidly.

Ring ring~

Just then, the communicator suddenly rang.

It was Old Ji.

Without saying much, he picked up and listened.

"King Lu, we finally contacted you," Old Ji's voice came through, sounding quite urgent.

"Has something happened? Something about the Human Alliance?" Lu Yuan asked, slightly puzzled, wondering if there was someone else unwilling to see the Human Alliance succeed.

"No, everything in that regard is progressing smoothly."

Old Ji replied without wasting words: "A couple of days ago, two people suddenly showed up at the Trial Institute, asking for you."

"Those two are quite strange, a young girl and an old man. The girl is peculiar, dressed in ancient attire, and she seems to be very powerful."

As an Awakened in the Shackles Realm, he had enough insight to realize the strength of those two was somewhat unexpected.

Moreover, he used his authority to check their information, only to find nothing at all.

This made him even more stunned, as they belonged to no known faction and had no discernible background.

"Is that so? And what else?" Lu Yuan squinted slightly, seemingly guessing their identity.

"I told them you weren't around, and the girl left a message."

"She mentioned 'small cauldron' and 'Shennong Altar,' and then they left."

Old Ji continued, "However, she said they'd return to the Taishan Trial Institute, hoping to meet you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan froze, already fully guessing who those two might be.

"I understand."

After some thought, he said, "I'll head back to Tai Mountain directly."

In response, Old Ji nodded, sensibly not asking further questions.

After a couple more words, Lu Yuan hung up the phone and gazed toward the distant horizon: "What must come has finally arrived. I wonder what your objective is this time?"

As for the small cauldron, there was no need to elaborate, as Chen Song had contacted him about it before.

But the Shennong Altar.

Besides him, only the Golden-winged Roc knew about it.

Now that these two people had shown up, involving these two matters, their objectives were unclear.

Lu Yuan also suspected the visitors were from an Outer Realm but had actively sought him out nonetheless.

Nonetheless.

No matter their objective, there was nothing to fear.

Sword against sword, water against earth; he now had the strength.

Finally.

Lu Yuan didn't dwell on it.

He instructed the Golden-winged Roc to speed up, while he chose to rest with his eyes closed.

Conveniently, the Spirit Fruit and Exotic Herbs obtained from Mount Olympus could be placed in Tai Mountain and entrusted to officials and others to alleviate worries; besides, there were so many he couldn't use them all.

In this way, time passed.

A few days later.

Lu Yuan returned to the Taishan Trial Institute, where the construction was nearly complete.

Old Ji was not present, having gone to Shuntian City to prepare for the Human Alliance, while Old Yun was in charge here.

Zhu Qingyu, Ice Fairy, Pure Yang Little Celestial Master, and others were also present, preparing to ascend Tai Mountain soon, seeking their opportunities for another evolution, and many had been selected from the major Zhen Dan Academies in the five major cities.

Everything was progressing systematically and methodically.

However.

When everyone saw Lu Yuan take out the Spirit Fruit and Exotic Herbs from Mount Olympus, they were all astounded.

There were truly many, and they understood it was the Divine Knight who had collected them from various places, only to change masters now.

Finally, he entrusted Old Yun with the immature ones for planting and safekeeping.

Subsequently, Lu Yuan went up Tai Mountain again.

He chatted with the Spiritual Monkey.

Previously, with its help, the Beast Tide was resolved, and they were not truly adversaries.

The latter was naturally hospitable, though a bit helpless to see the Golden-winged Roc.

After confirming it was Lu Yuan's mount, it sulked for a while.

Knowing well in its heart.

In terms of bloodline, the Golden-winged Roc was no less than itself, meaning it had become a mount?

Lu Yuan naturally didn't explain, and from the words of the Spiritual Monkey, he learned that a shimmering era was approaching, prompting him to heed the changes in Tai Mountain and other renowned mountains, as well as the signs sensed by the Exotic Beast King in the sea.

In the end, it issued a warning, indicating an imminent splendid era, advising him to be mindful.

He fully understood this and subsequently left the Jade Emperor Peak.

He settled down temporarily at the Trial Institute on Tai Mountain.

Meanwhile, he gave the Golden-winged Roc some Spirit Fruit and Exotic Herbs, allowing it to hunt Exotic Beasts with Dragon Blood to continue evolving.

As the Spiritual Monkey noted, more changes will come in the future, necessitating the enhancement of his strength.

As for himself, he took out the Meridian Heaven-Repairing Furnace and chose to engage in Alchemy.

During this period.

He had acquired many Spirit Fruit and Exotic Herbs, naturally unwilling to waste any.

In addition, the collection of the Church Court's five Ancient Holy Artifacts and other items could promote the evolution of the Daluo Sword Embryo.

Lu Yuan also took advantage of this period to further enhance his strength, breaking more Genetic Shackles and striving to reach the Golden Body Realm. Only by reaching the fourth stage of evolution would his prior preparations and foundations gradually reveal themselves.

Moreover, he was also waiting for those two Outer Realm visitors!
