Chapter 2036 – Yun Tian and Ling Qu

Good thing I refined the fruit of life and death before this and derived the power of reincarnation. If I’d come here before the Tome of Life and Death evolved again, I’d be dead without a doubt. Lu Yun celebrated silently.

Something new cropped up in his line of sight—cultivators of the Three Thousand.

Su Muzhou and his dao partner Suiyue Jinghao were also present. They’d concealed themselves with arts of disguise, but such rudimentary skill was nothing to the Spectral Eye. Even cultivators from the outside could see through them.

But given the current situation, no one wanted to escalate things by provoking the locals. Thus, they pretended not to see the two.

Su Muzhou and Suiyue Jinghao also weren’t so arrogant as to think they’d really pulled the wool over the demons. They kept to themselves and stood to the side, not getting involved.

“There are eighteen empyrean supremes here, twelve of them are from the Three Thousand,” the Disordered Empyrean Supreme counted. “There’s another one… from the past chief worlds.”

“An empyrean supreme from the chief worlds?” Lu Yun blinked. “Weren’t there only ever three in history?”

“Yes, he broke through to empyrean supreme here.” She looked in another direction. “He’s weaker than me though.”

Lu Yun nodded.

Though the Disordered Empyrean Supreme had spent a significant amount of time in death, her will lingered in the chief worlds when she was dead. The changes of the realm’s great daos had continuously affected her.

That was even more the case after she was resurrected and returned to her old cultivation level. Having assimilated into the shamanic race, she’d obtained the approval of heaven and earth. Most importantly was that she’d gone to the World of Immortals.

The current World of Immortals could be viewed as the origin of all great daos in the chief worlds. Formula dao was able to analyze all things and constantly help the realm’s great daos and worlds improve.

In contrast to the chief world empyrean supreme in this world—while he was from a stronger realm, he’d remained here all this time and missed out on too many eras. The combat arts of this realm were also stagnant, so while that empyrean supreme’s cultivation had continued to progress, his combat arts and dao methods were stuck in the past.

Although he was stronger than the empyrean supremes of this world, he was far weaker than the Disordered Empyrean Supreme who’d ascended after him.

“Are there any sacred supremes here?” Lu Yun wasn’t interested in the empyrean supreme who’d come from the chief worlds. If there weren’t any sacred supremes on the scene, then he and the Disordered Empyrean Supreme could soundlessly slip into the tomb. The situation would be a bit tricky if there were sacred supremes present as well.

He wasn’t able to access the tomb in his current condition. He had to dig a thief’s tunnel—a crucial segment of tomb exploration no matter where he was. If he tried to use an earth elemental art or any other art to transport himself inside, he might be trapped if anything caused the tomb’s layouts to shift and negate these arts.

Although such a thing had never happened before, he wasn’t willing to risk it.

A thief’s tunnel was the safest way to proceed, and he couldn’t do it by himself. The layouts were so ruined that he didn’t know where to start. He needed to reconfirm the layout of the land and re-analyze the premises.

He could do that with the aid of the Size Manipulation combat art, but that would cause a disturbance and expose himself. The death arts were his trump card; he didn’t want to expose them at this point in time.

He had to keep them hidden for now. If his enemies caught wind of his capabilities, they would be on guard against him and thus limit what he could do with the death arts in the future.

Although the dao methods of the Three Thousand were horrifically out of date, its people were closer to the core essence of dao. They’d brought out the eyes of great dao when they learned that Lu Yun could change into anything he desired. Who knew what they’d do next if they further learned that he could modify his size however he wished?

He wouldn’t have been this cautious before—his views changed after he heard the ‘sanctuary’ moniker from the Disordered Empyrean Supreme.

Could inhabitants of the Three Thousand be dismissed as weak just because they cultivated the core essence of dao and didn’t continue to develop after that?

Core essence could break through everything on its own if it was strong enough. The giant beasts followed an agreement in staying out of this territory, but all agreements were predicated on the basis of strength.

Would the beasts respect any agreement if they hadn’t been beaten into submission first?

Several tens of thousands were gathered in this world, but they docilely remained in the so-called Three Thousand. They didn’t dare raise any sort of fuss—there was obviously something here that they were afraid of.

Well, even Lu Yun had been scurrying to and fro to run from the eyes. If it wasn’t for the Tome of Life and Death, ten of him would be dead already.

……

“No sacred supremes, they can’t come here,” the Disordered Empyrean Supreme shook her head. “This place is off-limits to them.”

“What exactly are sacred supremes? Who’s stronger, them or the powerhouse in the nothing that I met before?” Lu Yun asked.

“The guy in the nothing, of course,” she chuckled ruefully. “As strong as sacred supremes are, they are still existences of heaven and earth. They will be assimilated by nothing if they leave its confines and vanish from existence.

“The one who calls himself a Nihil World Sovereign in the nothing is different. People like that guy can live in the nothing, they themselves are order. Each of them is a world in nihil—their existence is below only that of this world.”

Lu Yun nodded slowly and attached another talisman to his companion. Both of them appeared in public view at the same time as cultivators that Lu Yun had once seen before—a young man and a young girl dressed as a maid.

They were both local inhabitants of the Three Thousand, but an eye of great dao had destroyed their home. Everything had vanished within one hundred and fifty million kilometers of their home, including the two of them.

Given that the eyes of great dao were firing with area attacks, the Cardinal Sacred Palace didn’t care who lived or died. Thus, no one knew that these two were already dead.

Lu Yun and the Disordered Empyrean Supreme were thus free to borrow Yun Tian and his maid Ling Qu’s identity.

Their aura and ripples of great dao were the same as their fellow citizens. They also carried a deep hatred in their heart—something that the Shapeshifting Talisman had created.

“Hoi! Do you see what I see? The native idiots of this world dare come here? Do you want to die?” a grand supreme jeered when he saw the two.

Su Muzhou and Suiyue Jinghao also looked curiously at the newcomers.
