Chapter 1864: Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme

There was only Lu Yun to be seen in the endless world of red. Despite being completely isolated, he didn’t panic. He hadn’t planned on traveling with Chu Xingran, so their separation played right into his plans.

“I can’t use the formula destiny part of formula dao, the karmic ties here are a tangled mess.” He operated formula dao for a brief moment and found that, out of the five schools of formula dao, both formula theory and formula destiny were inoperable in this world.

It wasn’t that formula dao had run into its limitation, but that the karmic ties, rules, and laws of the World of Soul Dominion were too jumbled. They were a mishmash that could not be sorted through. In a place like this, formula destiny could not deduce fate and formula theory could not discern order.

Lu Yun also found that he couldn’t open the Gates of the Abyss. Although he was still connected to hell, he was unable to enter it.

In other words, this was a world that allowed entry and forbade exit. No method worked for normal egress. Perhaps the Tome of Life and Death could do so, but Lu Yun felt that the treasure’s latest test for him was not yet over. Apart from that impediment, he could freely use all of the other death arts.

“I don’t know anything about this place yet, so I need to be careful.” Instead of calling upon the death arts, he walked the world in his true form. He didn’t know what to do or what he was here for. He couldn’t even sense any other living beings.

“Hmm? Wait, someone’s buried here!” Lu Yun suddenly bent down and crouched behind a small mound of dirt, observing the situation ahead.

An unobtrusive hill rose from the ground not too far ahead of him, but as he observed the hill’s layout, he keenly picked up the presence of a stunning personage beneath it. They were stunning in terms of identity and background. Born with tremendous fortune, their luck dispersed in all directions upon their death and ultimately affected heaven and earth, forming the layout of a tomb.

He very naturally opened the Spectral Eye. An instinct carved into his bones, it wasn’t a habit that he could easily break.

“I can’t see them?” Lu Yun started. “There is someone inside, but I can’t read anything about them. The information is distorted and I’ll have to break the makeshift tomb to get a clearer read.”

He approached the hill. As opposed to calling it a tomb, it would be more accurate to call it a dumping ground for bones. It had the outline of a burial layout, but no substance. Breaking into this kind of tomb posed no difficulty for him.

However, he still moved with extreme caution. There seemed to be multiple pairs of eyes in the surroundings observing him right now. Lu Yun knew nothing about this world. Chu Xingran might know some, but he hadn’t had the chance to tell Lu Yun before they were separated.

How did this world test its candidates?

He paused and looked in a certain direction; there was a pair of eyes staring intently at him from it.

“A rookie from the outside?” The owner of the eyes stood up—a young girl who’d painted herself grayish-black. She assessed Lu Yun with bright eyes, looking at him with curiosity and caution. She never would’ve shown herself if he hadn’t detected her presence.

“Yes, I just entered the world,” Lu Yun nodded. “What are the rules here? Am I supposed to kill you or take something from you?”

The young girl blinked and warily backed up without a word. This guy was either an idiot or playing dumb.

“Do you have plans for this thing?” Lu Yun pointed at the hill in front of him. “It’s your lucky day that you ran into me, or you wouldn’t even know how you died. This is a fake tomb—the person inside is still alive. He’ll kill you without a doubt if you dare break into it.”

“How do you know??” the girl gasped.

“Heh, so you guys are working together,” Lu Yun roared with laughter.

“You were bluffing me?” The girl’s expression sank, making her dark face even blacker. “Come out, big sis. He saw through us.”

The tomb trembled and a second girl darted out, dressed like the first. She landed behind Lu Yun, surrounding him with her young sister.

“So this was indeed a trap.” Lu Yun waved his hand and manifested Argent Snow. Snowflakes began dancing behind him, but the two dusty girls didn’t make a move. No surprise crossed their faces and they didn’t even glance at Argent Snow.

Plainly, Lu Yun’s theory was wrong. The soul weapons had nothing to do with the World of Soul Dominion. He studied their cultivation, finding that although their aura was particularly strong, he couldn’t see what level they were at.

“Our target isn’t you, but since you barged in and ruined our plans, we have to kill you,” coldly declared the second girl. Golden silk threads extended from her body and shot toward Lu Yun like rays of aureate light.

He calmly activated Argent Snow and deployed its domain. Silver snowflakes flurried through the air and easily rebuffed the golden threads. The silk threads were undoubtedly from a fearsome treasure that the young woman had deployed. If it wasn’t for Argent Snow, Lu Yun wouldn’t be able to hold it off with his own strength.

As a soul weapon, Argent Snow required soul force to operate. The strength these weapons released was far in excess of a formula dao cultivator’s own cultivation. Such was one of the greatest advantages of soul weapons.

Mo Yi and God had created them together. No one was able to imitate them to date.

“A strong treasure, huh!” the girl sneered and withdrew her web of golden thread. She walked forward and stepped into the Argent Snow Domain.

The domain was as if a painting and Lu Yun its artist. But when the young girl barged in, she ripped the scroll apart. Lu Yun paled; he hadn’t expected her to be so mighty that she could so easily destroy the domain!

“Heh heh heh!” he grimaced and whirled the actual weapon around, bringing it down on the girl’s head.

She remained motionless and used her skull to bear the brunt of the blow. Massive recoil emanated from her head and Lu Yun leveraged it to fling himself away, trying to get out of her range.

“Get back here!” the girl sneered as halos of light appeared over her head. She yanked Lu Yun back and held him with her hand.

“Screw you, you’re so damn shameless!” Lu Yun roared when he took a clear look at the halos. “You’re a thirty-ninth level super senior cultivator bullying me, a poor twenty-fourth level baby cultivator! Do you even know what you’re doing?!”

“Twenty… twenty-four levels?!” The girl and her sister gaped. When they saw Lu Yun stroll into the area and peek at the tomb, they’d taken him for a senior cultivator as well. But, er, twenty-four levels?

That wasn’t even a fart to a senior cultivator, much less a threat.

The girl threw Lu Yun to the ground.

“What a rookie!” The younger sister walked up and peered quizzically at Lu Yun. “How are you even here at twenty-four levels? Is your lord nuts?”

“Who is your lord? What clan are you from?” the older sister asked with a frown.

Lu Yun put his sequence level on full display—twenty-four halos ringed his head. He never dreamed that he’d run into two powerhouses above thirty levels as soon as he entered the World of Soul Dominion!

If the older sister was at thirty-nine levels, the younger one wouldn’t be that far behind.

In comparison, the strongest beneath immortal dao was the Demonic Vine. She’d just broken through to thirty-seven levels.

“I’m Zhu Lingyan and my master is the Myriad Spirit Supreme!” Lu Yun felt that the supreme had definitely tossed him into a trap, so he gave the name without hesitation. He was also confused—these two were plainly related by blood. How could they have found each other in this endless world? Their identities were certainly bound to be impressive.
