Chapter 2641 Branch Lineage of the Luo Clan

The reason why Luo Tongtian wished to break past the eternal star road and open the Eternity Door was to peek into the secrets of eternity, and to find a way to fight against the Five Dao Decays!

After learning this truth, Lin Xun realized that he had still underestimated the horror of the Five Dao Decays. This kind of calamity was born during the destruction of an epoch, and it was definitely a first class and peerless tribulation upon the road of cultivation!

"Mister Lu, doesn’t that mean that if the Five Dao Decays within you continue to exist, your own cultivation will continue to be affected?" Lin Xun asked worriedly.

In contrast, Lu Boya was quite cheerful and said with a smile, "After fighting against such a calamity for so many years, I have roughly figured out some secrets. Under the suppression of my current cultivation, the Five Dao Decays will only erupt once every hundred years. Before it erupts, as long as I don't fight desperately, it can't threaten me."

Lin Xun then asked, "What happens when it erupts?"

Lu Boya was silent for a moment, and then responded, "Then I have to suppress it again. Although it will be very dangerous, I have fought against it many times and have lived to this day. I already have plenty of experience in doing so. The only problem is that every time the Five Dao Decays erupts, my cultivation plummets. Usually, I can only exert the power of the Quasi-Emperor Stage at most."

Only the power of a quasi-Emperor?

Lin Xun sighed in his heart. For anyone who had set foot on the immortal path, this was equivalent to being pushed into the abyss. In this situation, any Emperor could easily kill him! The next moment, he said seriously, "One day, I will completely cure your stubborn disease!"

Mister Lu snorted, "I have lived for so many years, so I don’t care how much longer I can live in the future. In the past, I absolutely couldn’t die because I had so many things to do and complete. I had to live at all costs. But now, you can stand on your own, and your great-grandfather has a true successor. Even if I die now, I will have no regrets..."

A pang ran through Lin Xun's heart as he said, "Mister Lu, you have to live! No matter what, I will not let you be robbed of your life by the Five Dao Decays!"

His tone was resolute and stern.

Mister Lu revealed a bright smile and said, "Okay, I'm looking forward to when you can fix the Luo Clan’s issues and when you can fulfill your great-grandfather's unfulfilled wish."

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xun said, "Mister Lu, in fact, before I traveled to the Rowdy Demon Sea, I had already made up my mind. After seeing you, I will go to the Luo Clan!"

Lu Boya nodded, not the last bit surprised, and said, "I actually expected this. After all, your mother is quite worried about your uncle and your grandfather. Furthermore, I have already found out that after your uncle left the Ancient Nebula Road, he wanted to find the All-Wonder Dominion. In the end, he failed. Now I suspect that he has most likely been captured by the people of the branch lineage and suppressed in the Luo Clan’s headquarters.

"As for your grandfather, if my hunch is right, then it is quite likely that he has also been imprisoned by the branch line too. Otherwise, the Blade of Light and Shadow and the Talent Stone would not have fallen into their hands. Even the Infinite Divine Scroll may now be controlled by Luo Chong."

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes and said, "So, my uncle and grandpa are now imprisoned by the Luo Clan?"

Lu Boya shrugged. "Whether that’s true or not, you will find out when you go to their headquarters. In fact, with your current combat power, you would not encounter too much threat even if you go."

Lin Xun was surprised, "Why do you say that, Mister Lu?"

Lu Boya sighed and said, "Everyone knows that the Luo Clan has long been in decline, but I am afraid no one really knows that the clan’s situation is not as simple as a mere decline in strength. The situation is quite worrisome for them. They are like a building that is about to collapse, and the clan may be expelled from the Sixth Heaven Domain at any time."

Lin Xun was astonished by this revelation. He had long known that the power of the Luo Clan was not as strong as its heyday. After all, the Luo Clan at its peak had stood in the Seventh Heaven Domain and even dared to compete with the Ten Immortal Giants of the Eighth Heaven Domain!

Unfortunately, ever since Luo Tongtian had disappeared, the Luo Clan’s momentum had plummeted. They had been directly driven out of the Seventh Heaven Domain and had come to the Sixth Heaven Domain in disgrace.

As early as when he was in the Ancient Nebula Road, Lin Xun had heard that even in the Sixth Heaven Domain, the power of the Luo Clan was still declining. Furthermore, as time went by, it was only getting worse and worse. Among the Immortal Imperial Clans in the Sixth Heaven Domain, they could only be considered second-rate!

The reason why Lin Xun had planned to go to the Luo Clan to settle their grudge after meeting with Lu Boya was because he knew that the clan only looked strong from the outside, but instead was actually weak on the inside. In fact, their situation was only going from bad to worse!

However, he still didn't expect that the Luo Clan would be in such a desperate and unbearable situation that they were almost unable to survive in the Sixth Heaven Domain...

"There are also some extremely powerful experts in the branch line, but compared with the main lineage, they lack some foundation and maturity. Ever since Luo Chong became the head, the positions and powers originally controlled by the main line’s clan members have almost all been taken away and handed over to the branch clan members. Since then, a huge and irreparable rift has appeared within the clan..."

A complicated look appeared in Lu Boya's eyes as he continued, "For countless years, the main lineage has been suppressed. This long-lasting internal struggle alone has seriously damaged the core of the Luo Clan. In addition, other forces are constantly eyeing and encroaching on and annexing the territory that was controlled by the clan. Under an onslaught of internal and external troubles, it would be difficult for the clan not to decline!

"If your great-grandfather were still alive, I'm afraid he would be so disappointed to see that the empire he had built with his own hands has become such a mess."

Lin Xun was not surprised by this. In the end, he didn't care about the rise and fall of the Luo Clan. He just wanted to end this feud completely, nothing more.

"I know that you hate the Luo Clan so much that you can't possibly identify with them." Lu Boya said, "But what I want to tell you is that the branch line of the Luo Clan is only the branch. They cannot represent the entire clan, and the power that has persecuted you over the years has only come from them."

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh, "In fact, even if the members of the Luo Clan’s main lineage wanted to persecute you, they wouldn’t have had the opportunity. For countless years, the old folks of the main line have been imprisoned in Feiting Mountain. How could they have the opportunity to stir up trouble while being suppressed by the law power? If not, your mother and your uncle wouldn't have to leave the Luo Clan with me back then..."

Lin Xun was silent for a moment and said, "Mister Lu, I roughly understand what you are getting at. If there is a chance, I will help them."

Lu Boya smiled with relief, "I believe this is what your mother would want to see."

Luo Qingxun was a direct descendant of the main lineage and had been persecuted by the branch lineage back then. If he truly traced the events, then the main line’s members were victims like him as well. How could he not understand this?

After thinking for a while, he asked, "Mister Lu, can you tell me about the power that the Luo Clan’s branch line has now?"

Lu Boya explained, "Luo Chong is the patriarch and the leader of the branch line. Including Luo Chong, they originally had three Immortals in charge, but you killed Luo Yunshan. Now there is only Luo Chong and Luo Yunhe left."

Lin Xun was stunned, "Only two Immortals?"

This was mind boggling to him. The Luo Clan was huge. However, even if only the power of the Luo Clan’s branch line was combined, there were only two Immortals in charge. This was too shabby.

After all, Lin Xun had been traveling around the Fifth Heaven Domain for many years. He was well aware that, even in the Fifth Heaven Domain, the top Immortal Imperial Clans had around three to four Immortals in charge of them! In comparison, the power of the branch lineage of the Luo Clan was even a little inferior to those clans!

Even if he didn’t take into account that he had just killed Luo Yunshan, the lack of power of the Luo Clan’s branch line still surprised him.

"A single Immortal can support an Immortal Imperial Clan. With your current strength and knowledge, don't you know what an Immortal existence means?"

Lu Boya saw through Lin Xun's thoughts at a glance and couldn't help from feeling like he wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. Did this kid really believe that immortal figures were cabbages found on the side of the road?

Such an existence, just in terms of personal combat power, could call the wind and rain and dominate a whole world!

Lin Xun also realized that his thinking was a bit one-sided. In fact, for any cultivator in this world, an Immortal Imperial Clan with two Immortals was far from being comparable to ordinary forces. Furthermore, this was only the power of the Luo Clan’s branch line, not the entire Luo Clan.

"But there's nothing wrong with your kind of thinking." Lu Boya looked at Lin Xun and sighed, "It's not that the Luo Clan is not strong enough, but instead that you are no longer comparable to what you were in the past."

Over the years, the Luo Clan had been declining. Furthermore, Lin Xun had only been getting stronger!

Today, he was so powerful that he now caused headaches for many forces in the Sixth Heaven Domain, and had made his enemies in the Seventh Heaven Domain hate him to the core. Even the Ten Immortal Giants in the Eighth Heaven Domain had to acknowledge his existence and think of ways on how to deal with him!

As for the Luo Clan today, although it still had some bite to it, it had long been in a declining position. Its situation in the Sixth Heaven Domain was now precarious. With such a comparison, the current Luo Clan’s branch lineage was quite shabby looking in Lin Xun's eyes!

Of course, this was relatively speaking. The Luo Clan’s branch line not only had two immortals presiding over them, but also controlled the power of the clan and the foundation that it had accumulated over countless years. In this regard, Lin Xun alone could not compare to it.

Next, Lu Boya explained some more things about the Luo Clain’s branch line. Before long, Lin Xun had a decent understanding of its current position.

Recently, some important figures from the branch lineage, such as Heavenly Emperor Shi Luo Yunshi, Yanxing, and Luo Yunyi, etc., had died in the Ancient Nebula Road. Although they were all Emperors, they were still the backbone of the branch after all. Their deaths were also a big blow to them.

Among the younger generation of the branch line, Luo Ling and Luo Chen were considered very dazzling and could be regarded as the top figures among their peers. However, as far back as when he was in the Celestial Phoenix World, Lin Xun had killed Luo Chen. Whereas Luo Ling was still being suppressed in his Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron.

The only one who could still be considered truly amazing in the younger generation was Luo Feng, the direct grandson of Luo Chong.

He was a dazzling figure who Luo Chong had used all of the power of the clan and countless cultivation resources to raise. Consequently, he was now at the Supreme Emperor Ancestor Stage. Thus, the entire branch lineage of the Luo Clan had their hopes pinned on Luo Feng.
