\nâHang on!â Inspiration struck Lu Yun. âThe abyss!â\n
There was another ultimate treasure on himâthe abyss! Refined by multiple kings of Dragonhollow Mountain, it was on the same level as Oddmoon, but its core essence was a fragment of the Abyssal Hell.
Instead of being a hell, the abyss was more a spatial treasure than anything. Lu Yun had originally wanted to use it to connect the chaos with the world of immortals, but now that heâd fully become part of the Hongmeng, he could bypass all of that and access hell directly through the Gates of the Abyss.
The Abyssal Hell would be a terrifying existence within the fourth realm, yet the one in Lu Yunâs hands wasnât the complete hell. It was just a spatial treasure refined from a fragment of that hell, placing it on the same level as the purple crystal mountain and Stellar Stone Magneticus.
âI donât have much use for the abyss anymore, so I can use it to counterbalance the mountain and stone!â
To think of the deed was to take action, so Lu Yun summoned the abyss and directed it into the mountain. A monochrome tint swiftly overtook the crystal mountain, in which purple and blue warred over. The abyss rapidly melted into the treasure and disappeared into nothingness as fire from five hells blazed in resplendent fury on all sides.
Following an enormous bang, purple and blue light interwove in the air and flared with the radiance of the rainbow. The void shook violently and Lu Yun deployed Spacetime Reincarnation, increasing the speed of time in the area.
âItâs shifting! The mountainâs about to break soon!â Eagerness shone out of the Spacetime Kingâs face.
âGet ready! Whether itâs the wreckage of the mountain or the wealth that belongs to us below, none of it will be allowed to land in anotherâs hands!â roared a glowering Beast King.
Dazzling purple light shook the void and shone fiercely upon the foot of the purple crystal mountain. A purple tower with three thousand and six hundred fifty floors appeared in the skies over Multitude City.
That itâd descended at this time meant someone was ascending to kinghood within the city, and that they were within range of the purple crystal mountain!
âWho is it? Is it Dusksnow Morningstar?â The Beast King frowned and waved a hand for his men to stop attacking.
He knew that the genius was present on Colosseum grounds, but hadnât thought that Morningstar would be involved with this matter. Despite the discovery, the king didnât think much of Morningstar. Even the Starspace KingâMorningstarâs patronâand the entire Enforcer Alliance as a whole was just a joke.
However, the arrival of the Hongmeng Tower was another matter entirely.
The tower represented the laws and orders of the realm; it was the arbitrator of all. Whoever dared cause trouble when it was present would die a very awful death!
âAre you trying to get out of the situation this way?â A cold smirk played on the Beast Kingâs lips. Heâd said earlier that not even Hong would be able to save those under the purple crystal mountain, and he meant it!
The Spacetime King understood his peer and continued setting up spatial formations to seal off the area. He wouldnât touch the Hongmeng Tower, but those beneath it would never get away!
More crowds gathered around and anticipation grew in the air.
News of Dusksnow Morningstar defeating the Bloodclad Duke had spread like fire throughout Multitude City. In fact, a large swathe of Multitude Region knew of the matter as well. No matter how the genius had defeated the duke, heâd emerged victorious in the end!
Thus, people wanted to see what level Morningstar would make kinghood at. Would he eclipse Hua Fengwen from a hundred thousand years ago?
However, expectation turned to shock in the next moment and even the Beast King stared dumbly. It wasnât Dusksnow Morningstar being made king, but another young manâthe one behind the Colosseumâs destruction!
âHeâs only in the common realm, how can he be a titled king?!â gasped the Beast King.
Everyone could clearly see that Lu Yun was just a common realm cultivator, but waves of purple light emanated from his body and connected with the Hongmeng Tower in the sky!\nâA supplemental king!â shrieked Spacetime. âHeâs not ascending through cultivation level, but through a supplemental path! How is this possible?? How does supplemental kinghood summon the Hongmeng Tower as well?!â
Though one could become a titled king through the supplemental paths, the towerâs projection would not descend at the moment of ascension. Only a purple ray of light carrying the towerâs will would arrive.
Likewise, that meant that supplemental kings didnât possess titles. Though they were rare and commanded fearsome, undefinable strength, they werenât orthodox kings. And yet, the young man in front of them was reaching kinghood through a supplemental path, while being in the common realm, and had summoned the Hongmeng Tower!
âTheyâre both freaks!â Hua Fengwenâs stare encompassed the little fox as well. When sheâd made king through a supplemental path, the tower had also come and given her the title of Immortal Illusion King. Sheâd disliked the title enough to ask for several changes and finally settled upon the Intrance King.
Who knew what the even more insaâheaven-defying Lu Yun would receive?
As Lu Yun stood beneath the towerâs projection, he could clearly sense an uncommonly conflicted emotion from it. Heâd felt it once beforeâwhen itâd tried to think of a title for the little fox.
âUm, you⌠donât need to be troubled,â he mumbled despite himself. âYou can call me whatever you want, Iâm not picky.â
Though his tone was quiet, the weakest of everyone present was in the superior realm. A mosquitoâs buzzing would ring as loud as a bell if they cared to pay attention to it.
âThat makes it sound like Iâm the picky one,â grumbled the little fox.
âThe young man has such ridiculous flights of fancy,â the Windcall King brayed with laughter. âSupplemental kings have no titles, and he wants to get one from the tower?â
Though the cultivators around him didnât verbally echo his mirth, a faint hint of derision colored their faces as well. The young man may have destroyed the Colosseum buildings and formation with a dreadful treasure, but soliciting a title from the tower was going far beyond his reach.
Never in the history of the realm had a supplemental king ever been bestowed with a title. Even the strongest supplemental king of the Hongmengâthe Dao Kingâhad received his title only after reaching kinghood again through cultivation level.\nVisit wuxiaworld.eu for extra chapters.
Lu Yun paid them no heed and stared unblinkingly at the towerâs projection in the sky.
The tower trembled and flared with a ring of purple light that landed on him. The light spread outward and formed two characters: Immortal King!
âHe really received a title?!â
âThe Immortal King?! The tower hails the young man as the Immortal King!â An uproar broke out in Multitude City as countless cultivators gaped from what theyâd just seen; kings couldnât find any words to describe their shock.
The Beast King was wide eyed with astonishment. The young man whoâd destroyed the Colosseum had not only received a title from the Hongmeng Tower as a supplemental king, but heâd been crowned the Immortal King!
Many kings in the Hongmeng were preparing for the arrival of the immortal dao, and numerous personages were setting up plans in both the world of immortals and Hongmeng for it. All of the maneuvering was for the sake of one strand of opportunity when the fateful moment arrived.
Who wouldâve thought that the Hongmeng Tower would bestow the âImmortal Kingâ title to a supplemental king, and one in the common realm! No matter what happened after today, this Immortal King would become the common target of the realm!
âImmortal King?â Lu Yun blinked, then complained, âIf Iâm called the Immortal King, then what will Little Yu do when she ascends to kinghood? This title should be reserved for her! How about you give me another one too?â
He almost caused scores of cultivators to plant their faces into the ground with incredulity. Was he⌠negotiating with the Hongmeng Tower? He was unhappy with his title??
âDoes he want to die to talk to the tower like this?!â The Beast King shuddered. âIsnât he afraid of the tower bringing down a Hongmeng tribulation on him and smiting him into two?? âŚbut at least heâs got some sense and knows that he canât be called the Immortal King.â
\nThough there was an Immortal City to the south of Multitude Region and its ruler also called the Immortal King, that was just something for their own ego and used behind closed doors. In the eyes of others, that city and its king were pure entertainment.
Those who called themselves Immortal King in the Hongmeng numbered at least several million, if not tens of millions.
The Hongmeng Tower projection wavered, seemingly equally dissatisfied.
âAnd you said you werenât picky!â The little fox curled her lip. âLook at you pointing fingers when you donât have the right to!â
No one knew what she meant, apart from Hua Fengwen and the others. All thought had fled from Dusksnow Morningstarâs mind, he had no idea what to say.
Lu Yun was still standing in mid air and looking up at the towerâs image.
