Toast to the bright moon

Traversing the Nine Provinces in the Immortal Cultivation World, Lu Yuan possessed the Dao Fruit of longevity, an eternal lifespan. If he were careful, he could anticipate the Immortal Method.
This was indeed a beautiful thing.
However, he was born during the Age of Dharma Decline, with spiritual energy depleted and the Immortal Method difficult. The great path was elusive.
Even worse, the Immortal Cultivation World of the Nine Provinces was on the verge of collapse, and the four poles were about to fall, marking the end of an era.
If that was the case, why shouldn't a man take up his sword and conquer fifty states across the mountains?
To survive in the Age of Dharma Decline, Lu Yuan cultivated the ancient Way of Control Pneuma, established an Immortal Dynasty, and gathered Qi Luck. He brought order to the Nine Provinces and peace to the four seas.
Gathering strength from across the world, he ascended to immortality step by step.
In ancient times, there were three Human Emperors: Hua Guang, Xia Xi, and Hao Tian.
Who is the Human Emperor now?
It is Emperor Chu Luyuan.

To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Lu Yuan's words were undoubtedly sincere.


For him, even though the Kunhai region across the river is desirable.


With its lakes for irrigation, and fertile land, slight management would suffice to support a million people. It could become an important base for the conquest of the southwestern Yi people.


But for Great Chu, who has already annexed a county of the southwestern Yi, the effort needed to digest the current county and its eight prefectures is already extreme, encountering enormous difficulties, and nearly choking on it.


To strive for the Kunhai region at this point, adding such a vast expanse of territory, would be like seeking death and detonation at the same spot.


So, for Lu Yuan, while Kunhai may be attractive, it is poisonous to him.


Ingesting it might bring momentary sweetness, but once the poison circulates through the entirety of his body, it is time for the fatal consequences to occur.
