Chapter 2052 – Place of Demonic Suppression

“Protect Jin Huo well. She’s only an ordinary peak grand supreme and doesn’t have any other roots like us,” Tailong issued a final reminder.

Lu Yun was already gone.

He wanted to return to the World of Immortals and visit Qing Yu, the little fox, Lu Qing, and his family. But with the kind of karma entangling him for the moment, he might suffer a blow from the unknown at any second. He was immensely afraid of bringing trouble to his dao partners.

Besides, Qing Yu and the little fox were very busy these days. The world of immortals was becoming one with the primordial world of immortals.

Its seed of nothing core was the essence of the primordial world of immortals. After the world of immortals melded with the primordial world, the modern world would be its primary identity.

There was nothing but an empty shell left of the primordial world of immortals. It was an empty husk of unsurpassed power that could join the ranks of nothing to manifest existence. Its flesh and blood was the world of immortals.

None of this had been preordained. Lu Yun had won everything through his own sweat and tears.

……

The World Heart.

It was a locale very different from what Lu Yun imagined; it was a brilliantly radiant world. Birdsong called from every corner and the fragrance of a myriad of flowers wafted through the air. Vibrant and lush, it was an existence that rivaled the Three Thousand.

Lu Yun picked up an almost imperceptible sense of danger at the same time, but couldn’t identify where it came from. He looked around in the middle of a grassy plain and sensed life, but couldn’t find any ripples of emotions in his surroundings.

“Life without emotion? Or life without thought? …no! No wait!” Cold sweat beaded his forehead and he mumbled with terror, “If a being is so insanely big that it’s on par with a patch of existence, then its thoughts will be so big that I can’t sense them…”

Such was the case for beings in the nothing. The nothing was too vast and empty, completely lacking in all concepts and reference objects. In order to accumulate strength, nihil powerhouses expanded their bodies so they could contain more strength to transform into nothing.

Although the power of nothing was named “nothing”, there was still something in its power. It was a strength similar to nihil, a kind of false nothing that deluded the true nothing. It enabled nihil powerhouses to freely walk through the nothing without being assimilated.

The power of nothing could not be compressed or distilled. It could only be contained in a body, so the bigger the body, the more the power and the stronger the person.

Lu Yun derived this knowledge from the strand of nothing in his body after he became a grand supreme. Therefore, he theorized that there was a horrifically strong heavyweight somewhere close to him.

He deployed Boundless Step without thinking and left the area with a few rises and falls.

BOOM!

A large mouth probed out of the ground as soon as he left. It was so big that when Lu Yun looked at it, he gauged it to be bigger than the entire chief worlds.

“Damn it, I’m not even a cell to that mouth! Ambush me? Is there really a need for that??” Lu Yun shook. He’d be food for that mouth if he’d been a second slower. It was definitely an existence stronger than sacred supreme and to the level of nothing.

Were there nihil powerhouses in the World Heart?

Lu Yun spun around fearfully. The big mouth had sunk back beneath the ground, as if it’d never been there.

“What was that?” he murmured. Jin Huo drifted to his side.

“You became a grand supreme so quickly!” She assessed the young man with a complicated expression.

“Mmhmm,” Lu Yun nodded. “The tree god’s not dead, by the way, he’s always been alive.”

“I know,” Jin Huo nodded. “But he’s someone else now, so the past tree god is still dead in my eyes.”

Lu Yun blinked, then frowned. “Do you plan to kill Ling Weiyang to bring back the tree god of the past?”

Ashu was his friend. He would never allow it if they had to kill Ling Weiyang to facilitate the tree god’s return. Although he owed a debt of gratitude to the tree god, Ling Weiyang was also a living being.

“There’s no need for that,” Jin Huo shook her head. “The tree god left a path for himself. He doesn’t need to hurt anyone if he wishes to return to life.”

“So why are there nihil powerhouses here?” Lu Yun asked instead of continuing the topic. Although Tailong had said that Jin Huo was just an ordinary peak grand supreme, she wielded the order of life and was the tree god’s dao partner. She should know a great deal.

“Ancestor used his own body to manifest existence, so nihil powerhouses naturally covet this territory. The World Heart is where Ancestor suppresses demons. All nihil invaders and those from the Three Thousand that you just visited are held at the World Heart. That’s why it’s the most dangerous place in our part of existence.

“Although they’re held in confinement, they still have a very long range of attack. The mouth you encountered earlier isn’t a nihil powerhouse, but someone from the Three Thousand.”

“The vicious beasts?” Lu Yun thought of what the Disordered Empyrean Supreme called everything outside the sanctuary of the Three Thousand. At the same time, he found it slightly amusing that everyone seemed to know he’d visited that realm.

“Don’t find it weird, the tree god sent me there too, to become a grand supreme,” Jin Huo chuckled.

“Alright then,” Lu Yun nodded.

“Do you know why Ancestor’s reincarnation, the overlord of Ice, keeps himself frozen in a tomb of ice?” Jin Huo asked, but replied before he had a chance to respond. “Because he didn’t cut off the connection to his primary body. The ice isn’t to hold himself, but to suppress the demons here.

“With the ice melted, his freedom is seemingly restored, but he needs to endure more than before. If it wasn’t for Moran Wu by his side helping him keep the demons under control, the World Heart would’ve been destroyed long ago.”

“Moran Wu?” Lu Yun blinked at the familiar name.

Moran Wu was the Spacetime King, Moran Dongning’s older brother. His background was almost prohibitively illustrious. The order of time was forbidden, so he was the only one who controlled it outside of the spacetime travelers.

“Moran Wu… he’s the first spacetime traveler, the truly invincible in the nothing. If it wasn’t for him, both Ancestor and Forebear would be dead without an intact corpse to their names. They wouldn’t be able to set all this up.”
