Chapter 1926 – Dispersal

Chapter 1926 – Dispersal

Swift and ferocious, Lu Yun’s punch connected in the same spot on the dark grand supreme’s chest.

Bam!

Caught off guard, she was unable to defend herself in time and spewed black mist from her mouth. Her body of the soul once more suffered heavy injury.

Yun Yi took advantage of the opening to create some space around her and slammed a fierce uppercut at the dark grand supreme’s head. Screaming with anguish and outrage, the latter grabbed for her, but was sent flying by Lu Yun’s second punch.

His Darkstar technique had reached great perfection and he could release his strongest force in the world of the Tome of Life and Death. He was on par with a peak grand supreme in here!

Yun Yi looked incredulously at Lu Yun. The young man was wearing the Master of Darkness for camouflage and attributed everything he was doing to the treasure. Yun Yi had thought that he would deploy a special attack, bring out a powerful treasure, or even call upon the Three Brushes of Reincarnation hidden in the surroundings.

But all Lu Yun employed was his personal, strongest strength.

He struck the moment Yun Yi backed away and drilled the dark grand supreme with fists that were like black shooting stars. While there was a doorframe over her head that led to the land of darkness and continuously fed her strength, Lu Yun didn’t care about that.

Everything here belonged to him as the inner world of the Tome of Life and Death was his nascent spirit. Although power from the land of darkness streamed through the dark grand supreme, it ultimately landed in this world and became Lu Yun’s strength.

Yun Yi’s pretty eyes went round and she stared incredulously at Lu Yun. The young man was fighting the dark grand supreme for the power from the land of darkness!

“This isn’t hell!” the dark grand supreme suddenly howled. “How can this be?! How is there such a strong world in the chief worlds?!”

Her face contorted and she stared at the Master of Darkness on Lu Yun’s face. Its face had turned blood red and it’d assimilated with Lu Yun, making him a Dark Yama King.

“Take a guess.”

Whoosh!

Hellfire blazed into existence over his body and he propelled the Darkstar move to maximum strength. Shadows of his fists streaked through the air and barrelled into the dark grand supreme.

She could restrain Yun Yi because she’d come prepared for her opponent. The Dark Yama King that was the current Lu Yun, however, could subdue all things from the gloom.

Every one of his blows made the dark grand supreme cough up mist-like blood. She sagged and drooped, her body of the soul beginning to fade away like a worn piece of clothing.

“Don’t let her get away, she’s contacting her other soul parts,” Yu Yi quickly spoke up when she realized what their enemy was doing.

“I can’t.” Lu Yun gently shook his head and watched the dark grand supreme dissipate.

Her ultimate goal had been to take possession of Chu Xingran’s body and turn the latter into a bridge for the darkness. If mounted between the chief worlds and land of darkness, Chu Xingran would enable the dark to permeate the chief worlds. The endarkened would have a clear path into the heartland of their long-time adversary then.

But Yun Yi had laid her own plans on Chu Xingran long ago. As a result, she almost destroyed the bridge. The dark grand supreme would have to defeat and kill Yun Yi to rebuild the bridge—something that she could still achieve.

However, Lu Yun was an unforeseen development who ended up being crucial to their victory.

The world inside the Tome of Life and Death was not only separate from the chief worlds and land of darkness, but it also put a complete end to the idea of setting up a bridge to the darkness. On top of that, it ate away at the power reinforcing her.

As things stood now, the dark grand supreme was only a soul entity. She didn’t possess any strength of her own. The door hidden in her soul was her sole support, the medium through which she could draw on the land of darkness and absorb its power. It was also the key to making the proposed bridge of darkness work.

If she continued to remain here, she might lose the door to Lu Yun.

It was formed by the power of darkness and Lu Yun was yet to fully devour it, so she could still use it to contact her other reincarnated soul parts and transfer her consciousness to them. This was a nebulous connection that Lu Yun could not affect.

The dark grand supreme fixed her eyes on the young man’s face, seeming to bore through the Master of Darkness to peer at his features beneath. She committed the presence of his soul to memory.

“I’ll remember you. The next time we meet, I’ll kill you instead of Yun Yi.” Her final wisp of thought faded away, taking the door with it and leaving behind nothing but a pristine soul form.

The hellfire that’d been forced back blazed to life again as soul fire.

“This is… well, this counts as the ethereal soul part of your past life. Do you want to inherit her strength?” Yun Yi turned to Chu Xingran standing beside her.

The woman thought for a moment and asked, “Will I become a peak grand supreme if I make this part of me?”

“No,” Yun Yi shook her head. “You’ll be a very strong grand supreme at most. Peak grand supreme will still be out of reach.”

Everyone had thought that this soul part could create another peak grand supreme for the chief worlds, but it was a trap. A trap laid by a peak grand supreme from the land of darkness for someone like Chu Xingran. Whoever dared assimilate this soul part would find themselves becoming a bridge to the dark.

“You can,” Lu Yun suddenly interjected. “I can help you become a peak grand supreme.”

Yun Yi frowned at him; the young man looked back at her.

“Are you thinking of using the realm monster?” Yun Yi quickly realized. “You can’t. That realm monster is more important than you realize. If she comes back to life, so will the major world of the primordial heavenly court. That is far more important than a peak grand supreme.”

With her cultivation level, she easily saw through Lu Yun’s plans.

Yun Yi had once viewed Chu Xingran as a most precious sacrifice for the realm monster. And truth be told, if Chu Xingran hadn’t been able to wrest her freedom from her master, she really would be sacrificed.

But since Chu Xingran could be sacrificed to the realm monster, so could the realm monster be sacrificed to Chu Xingran.

“Tailong comes from that major world, doesn’t he?” Lu Yun asked slowly after a deep breath.

“If there is one Tailong, there will soon be a second and a third,” Yun Yi nodded. “The chief worlds have withered away and they are no longer what they were. They do not need one peak grand supreme, but multiple ones.”

The chief worlds of the past boasted of Leize’s family and the ghost family of four. They were all peak grand supremes!

The marvelously talented primordial emperor had even been an empyrean supreme with countless heavyweights at his beck and call. But these days, there were only six peak grand supremes in the entire realm.

……

Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion and down the path that Lu Yun wished for things to happen.

Apart from itself, the current World of Immortals possessed another three hundred and sixty-five major worlds that formed a straight line through the chief worlds. It led straight to Huangpang by the foot of the Firmament Prison.

It wouldn’t be hyperbole to hail the World of Immortals as the foremost faction of the chief worlds these days. Not even the dragons, Morans, Autumnus Realm, or Cloudmist Realm possessed this kind of momentum.

Denizens of the major worlds they conquered all switched to immortal dao, thus immediately forming deep foundations for the immortal dao in the chief worlds.

Added to that Qing Yu and the little fox’s plans, immortal dao flourished in its new home. The three hundred and sixty-five major worlds welcomed countless more chief world immortals who’d once cultivated immortal dao and had no place to turn to now.

Since the grand supremes that oversaw the realm were absent, that made the World of Immortals the undisputed first of the chief worlds. This was set in stone before many had a chance to react. This new faction had risen in the blink of an eye and occupied so many major worlds.

Huang Pang and Mo Fei took over the Immortal Sect in Huangpang major world, becoming its sect leaders. They were both high supremes and would already be grand supremes if they hadn’t fallen victim to Yun Yi’s plot to nurture Chu Xingran. They’d also transferred to the immortal dao and recovered from all of their wounds thanks to the great dao. They were but a few steps from grand supreme now.
