Chapter 1640: The Fifth Disciple

Immortal dao was one of many great daos in Myriadsea World. In fact, it was only a very small dao among the sea of daos. But it possessed its own sequence??

Lu Yun looked blankly at the bearded immortal in front of him, who also looked back at him with stupefaction.

“What’s going on here?” Lu Yun murmured.

“That’s what I’d like to ask you too…” the mystified man responded.

Lu Yun abruptly understood that there was something very significant about the world he’d crashed into. This was no run-of-the-mill world in the fourth realm. He had a bold conjecture brewing in his mind, but it was so shocking that he didn’t dare follow it to the end. He shook his hand and slammed the three empyrean immortals to the ground.

“I know you’re nearby, Dongfang Ao. Have the king of Ruina Immortal Nation come meet me. If it’s not him next time, I’ll pay a visit to his kingdom instead,” Lu Yun declared coolly.

Quietly observing from the shadows, Dongfang Ao was drenched in cold sweat. He hadn’t thought that the immortal from Truecloud Sect would be so ferocious that even guardians of sequence couldn’t take him down!

He left without a peep.

“So where were we?” Lu Yun landed on the ground and turned to Marquis Windcloud.

“Nothing in particular…” The marquis finally comprehended why Situ Lang had bowed his head to this personage at first light. Guardians of sequence were mighty presences that maintained the immortal sequence of Myriadsea World. Even the Truecloud Immortal King of the Truecloud Sect would bow and scrape before them.

But their mysterious savior had taken their medallion instead?

“Really?” Lu Yun looked at him with a half smile. Though he couldn’t accurately pinpoint emotions anymore because he lacked the Karmic Tree, he could still tell what the marquis was thinking.

“Please help me take revenge, milord!” Marquis Windcloud suddenly fell to his knees before Lu Yun and kowtowed resoundingly.

“You are dismissed… rebuild Truecloud Nation for me,” Lu Yun chuckled with a look at Xia Xu.

“Understood!” Xia Xu jumped to attention. Rebuilding the nation did indeed require the personal attention of her former ruler.

“Remember, this kingdom is still called Truecloud Nation, but it is the Truecloud Nation of the Immortal Lord.” Lu Yun waved a beam of immortal light into Xia Xu’s body.

Overjoyed, the man kept up a profuse litany of thanks as he retreated.

“I’ve scanned an area of fifteen million kilometers around the altar and find your potential to  be the best.” Lu Yun took his measure of Marquis Windcloud. “I am not an immortal from your world, but from an even wider arena. I wish to establish immortal dao here and I need a spokesperson. Are you willing to take me for your master?”

“Disciple Qi Fengyun greets the master!” The marquis knelt to the ground almost as soon as Lu Yun finished speaking and kowtowed gravely. His title Windcloud were the same characters as his name Fengyun.

“Good, very good,” Lu Yun nodded approvingly. “You are now my fifth disciple from this moment forth. However, unlike your senior brothers and sisters, I won’t be teaching you combat arts or cultivation methods. I will teach you only one great dao.”

Qi Fengyun’s expression dimmed when he heard that Lu Yun wouldn’t be teaching him combat arts, but immediately brightened at the thought of learning a great dao. In Myriadsea World, very few could reach the existence of dao.

Lu Yun stretched out his hand and pointed at the center of Qi Fengyun’s forehead, transmitting the fundamentals of formula dao into the latter’s mind. His newest disciple froze into place as basic formulas and elementary calculation methods swirled in his thoughts.

Rumble—

Thunder boomed from his body and the milky radiance of immortal light shot into the sky. Void realm!

Perceived void realm!

He’d been peak spirit realm to begin with and only a hair's breadth away from the void realm. Since he lacked void realm methods, he’d been stuck on the precipice without an optimal opportunity to ascend.

Now that he received formula dao, he immediately used it to derive his void realm path and broke through in one fell swoop. With his entrance to perceived void realm, the energy of the world flooded his body and all Truecloud cultivators could see a pillar of immortal light rising into the heavens.

……

“What in the heavens?! That bastard Qi Fengyun broke through?!” Truecloud Mountain, home to the Truecloud Sect, was located four hundred thousand kilometers away from Truecloud Nation.

Their leader, the Truecloud Immortal King, had comprehended his dao on the mountain and created the sect upon reaching enlightenment. He’d later been grievously injured and lost one of the sect’s world of immortals, so the faction could only be called the Truecloud Sect.

At the moment, there was a young man with a vicious expression within the sect that glared murderously in Cloud City’s direction.

“So what if you ascended? I beat you almost to death before and you’re still my dog even after you enter the perceived void realm.” The young man stood up and shouted, “Men! Have that Marquis Windcloud come meet me!”

“Young lord!” A spirit realm cultivator walked up to him with an unpleasant expression and handed a jade slip to the young man.

The young man paused, his expression changing drastically when he scanned the jade slip. It recorded recent events in Truecloud Nation—from the beast tide attacking the nation to Crown Prince Dongfang Ao visiting three times.

“Bastard!” howled the young man as he crushed the jade slip in his fury. “That person is certainly not Immortal Longcloud from the Truecloud Sect world of immortals! Investigate who this filth is, how dare he provoke Ruina Immortal Nation!”

He was Xia Wan, son of the sect leader. Qi Fengyun’s younger sister had met her death at his hands.

“Young lord… Truecloud Nation has already rebelled,” the spirit realm cultivator reported apprehensively.

Xia Wan immediately quieted down instead of calling for immediate, brash action. He’d eliminated Qi Fengyun’s sister because her potential had been too heaven-defying. It’d gravely threatened his position and Xia Wan was no fool.

“Then let Ruina destroy Truecloud,” Xia Wan muttered. “Guardians of sequence? They’re just Ruina’s dogs.”

……

“My deepest thanks to master’s teachings!” Qi Fengyun fell to his knees and kowtowed once more after the energy of the world finished flooding his body.

“You grasped formula dao with the fastest speed possible and determined your own path… I didn’t think wrongly of you!” Lu Yun smiled. “Very good, I have a mission for you. Go to Ruina Immortal Nation and have her king come meet me.”
