\nâFound it, Iâve finally found it,â murmured Lu Yun. Utilizing the power of the Dragonsearch Invocation, he peered intently at the stars shifting in and out of sight above. âThe great tombs that we saw in the fourth realm are located in the Hongmeng cosmos.â\n
âI want to go to the fourth realm too,â huffed the little fox.
âIâll take you when thereâs a chance to.â He took a deep look at her. There seemed to be secrets with her as well.
Hongjun certainly hadnât grabbed a random fox from the mountain to gift a creation seed to. Additionally, the secret art that sheâd taught his past and future selves to become a dao fruit was no ordinary piece of knowledge. Even now, he had yet to wrap his mind around all of its profound mysteries.
When the little fox had opened the passage to the past and future, sheâd done so with casual ease. Though sheâd said that she accomplished that with the last dregs of spacetime power lingering in the seed, creation seeds didnât actually possess the power to travel through time.
Lu Yun even suspected that the passage that Fuxi and the others had taken from the historical great wilderness to the future world of immortals was the little foxâs handiwork.
Though he had his clear suspicions, he didnât want to lay them out in the open. She would tell him when she was willing to, and perhaps sheâd even be the source of some surprises when they entered the fourth realm.
From all the signs available to him, it would seem that the little fox herself didnât know who she was either.
âThen⌠of that cosmos and this world that weâre on, which is the real third realm?â the little fox asked again.
âI donât know.â Lu Yun shook his head. There were some matters he shouldnât speak of, nor did he dare to. There were too many heavyweights in the Hongmeng and they were too strong. Every one of his words could potentially elicit changes in the realmâs orders and raise attention from these experts.
Lu Yun had emphasized study of Hongmeng taboos during the past three years. There were some that even titled kings didnât dare run afoul of. Aside from the Enforcer Alliance, there were also many unknown existences who helped keep the Hongmengâs laws and orders intact.\n
The Hongmeng was too great, and he was just the tiniest ant within it. It was forbidden that ants peek at the heavens.
âBut what I do know is that weâre in big trouble,â Lu Yun took a deep breath. âThis Meteorite King is most probably no kind soul. Perhaps⌠heâs a mutated result of something from the destroyed tomb.â
The little fox couldnât help a horrified shudder.
âMaybe he really is gravely injured and hovering on the brink of death. But heâll never die in this uncanny Meteorite Peak.â Lu Yun carefully ceased operating the Dragonsearch Invocation. He didnât dare use it too much in the Hongmeng.
The heavenly, earthly, and human tribulations targeted at the Dragonquake Scripture had come from the third realm. Though Lu Yun had only found bits and pieces of the method mentioned in his research over the past three years, he could clearly feel that the entire realm was set against the Dragonquake Scripture.
Thus, deploying the three methods of Dragonsearch, Dragonshift, and Dragonspike were already the limits of his capabilities.
âThis is a destroyed tomb, so the Meteorite King could very well be one of its ghostsâŚâ The little fox ran over to Lu Yunâs side and thought for a moment. âIf weâre not even afraid of whole and complete tombs, why would we be afraid of a broken one?â
âDonât forget, thatâs a king weâre facing!â Lu Yun huffed back.
âSo what? Kings have to die too!â the little fox rebutted strongly.
âDusksnow Morningstar of Starspace City greets the Meteorite King!â rang out a clear shout from the center of the mountain. It reverberated in the air, traveling around the range as echo upon echo.
âDusksnow Morningstar of Starspace City greets the Meteorite King!â\nâDusksnow Morningstar of Starspace City greets the Meteorite King!â
The greeting sent waves of commotion through the mountain.
Dusksnow Morningstar was the stunning genius of Starspace City, the one whoâd fought the venerated enforcer of the Enforcer Alliance to a standstill after three moves. When the assembled powerhouses in Meteorite Peak heard his shout, they jerked in collective shock.
No one had thought that Dusksnow Morningstar would truly come. He wanted to challenge the Meteorite King and use him as a whetstone, becoming a king himself that way!
âCome on, letâs go take a look!â Lu Yun hastily took down the formation preparations he was fussing over. If Morningstar was here to challenge the king, then none of this setup mattered. Once there was a victor between the two, a bloodbath would soon follow. They joined the crowd of people streaming to the center of Meteorite Peak.
Being a ring-shaped mountain, Meteorite Peak was covered by lush forests both inside and out. It was a haven for arcane beasts. Of all locales in Starspace Region, they could be found here in their greatest numbers.
But currently, the countless beasts rushed madly to the center of the mountain, wanting to protect their king.
A young man dressed in long black robes and a longbow on his back stood in the middle of a vast clearing. He waited quietly, two rays of piercing light shooting out of his eyes set in a face of handsome features.
âDusksnow Morningstar of Starspace City greets the Meteorite King.â He bowed to an elder in front of him.
The man looked extremely old and all of his skin and flesh seemed glued to his bonesâhe was almost devoid of blood. However, he still released an incredibly frightening presence and regarded all living beings loftily. All life was ants beneath his feet!\nVisit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
All of the experts in the Hongmeng only knew that he was an arcane beast king, but no one knew what his true form was.
A film of death qi clouded his eyes; he was not long for this world.
âDusksnow Morningstar, Iâve heard of your name.â The Meteorite King coughed and rasped out, âHave you made up your mind to use me as your whetstone?â
âThis junior would never dare entertain the thought if the Meteorite King was in your prime.â Morningstar nodded. âIf this junior becomes a king today through your strength, I will ensure that you receive the proper burial rites afterward and prevent others from desecrating your body.â
The heavyweights nearby shifted uneasily when they heard the boyâs promise.
ââŚvery well then, I hope you keep your word.â The Meteorite King inclined his head when he heard this. As a high and mighty king, he would rather self detonate than allow his body or crystal core be abused after his death.
âHold!â Wreathed in a layer of shadows, a cultivator dressed in a black robe interrupted the tentative agreement from being set in stone. He walked forward, hooded eyes stared fixedly at the king.
The little fox jumped in shock. She and Lu Yun had been hidden in her formation of illusions, but Lu Yun had suddenly charged out of it!
âIf the Meteorite King may, please tell us how you were injured!â Lu Yun intoned gravely.
The Meteorite King and Dusksnow Morningstar both snapped their gazes to Lu Yun, while Miao Qimiao and the others hidden elsewhere groaned with dread.
\nAs beneficial as a fight may be, they didnât want the genius and king to clash against each other just yet. After Morningstarâs promise, the king would certainly acquiesce to the youthâs wishes with all of his strength. If the two spontaneously engaged in pitched battle, everyone here would be vaporized in the aftershock.
âHave you seen something?â the Meteorite King asked Lu Yun.
âI have.â Lu Yun nodded. âYouâre not injured. You are so weak and not long for the land of the living because you are only half here! Where has the other half of you gone?â
