Vicious intent filled Tailongâs handsome face. He and those heâd fought alongside couldnât destroy an ultimate treasure like the Jade Record of Creation, but the organs of the world were a different matter. As strong as they were and filled with the will of heaven and earth, they werenât indestructible.
The set in the world of immortals, for example, had once been destroyed and repaired only through the function of the altars.
âDonât make any brash moves,â Lu Yun quickly cautioned when he heard Tailongâs eruption. âThe organs are no ordinary object and might have been worshiped to divine status. I strongly suspect that the spirit inside the Jade Record of Creation is the one from the organs.
âPerhaps itâs the organs of the world that are looking for a body for themselves.â
The group blinked when they heard his words. The organs of the world could reach divine status through sufficient worship!
That had been the case for the lungs in the world of immortalsâtheyâd become a god by the time Lu Yun found them.
Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].
He couldnât determine who it was behind all this. Whoâd mobilized the puppets of chaos dirt and their masterâs cultivation level was also a mystery. All he had was speculation. Since the organs of the world could become gods, that was his first target of suspicion.
âYou guys stay here and be on the alert, Iâll go take care of it,â Lu Yun said after a while of thought.
âMy strategist, youâre not a peak grand supreme yet, are you?â Tailong asked worriedly.
âThis Heavenfall in my hand is Godâs ultimate treasure. God is the ancestor of all gods, so any divine spirit born later than him must come under his control,â Lu Yun answered confidently. âIf the organs of the world have truly become a god, then he wonât withstand a single blow from Heavenfall.â
The will that heâd destroyed with his earlier jab had gravely injured the treasure spirit. The second had broken the Hongmeng qi and sent it fleeing for shelter. That reaction raised Lu Yunâs suspicions.
The enemy put up almost no resistance when faced with the spearâs might.
âGe Long gave me another treasure as well. So while Iâm not a peak grand supreme myself, I am completely unafraid to face them,â the young man chuckled. That finally set the group at ease.
If the organs of the world really had become a god, just three spacetime travelers and one peak grand supreme wouldnât hold him back. It would take at least an empyrean supreme for the task. But with Heavenfall in hand, the divine spirit couldnât harm Lu Yun.
He leapt upward and vanished beneath the chaos dirt. Seeming to sense the advent of danger, the chaos dirt puppets reappeared and flung themselves at the peak grand supremes on the scene.
For every peak grand supreme they killed, it meant one step closer to taking shape for the Jade Record of Creation. If the treasure could manifest a physical form to house the organs of the world, then the spirit would no longer need to fear items such as Heavenfall. However, the mission had to be accomplished before Lu Yun reached it!
The battle between the four within the treasure intensified, but one could tell that the three allied against the Disordered Empyrean Supreme werenât of one heart. They turned on each other whenever she was spent and tried to eliminate the other two.
Numerous peak grand supremes tried to make their way into the Jade Record of Creation, but the remobilization of the puppets and their increasing numbers forced them to give up on the idea. They had to focus on rebuffing the never-ending horde of enemies.
Lu Yun deployed the Mastery of the Five Elements death art and combined himself with the chaos dirt around him. Chaos dirt counted as part of the earth element. This death art had reached great perfection after the Tome of Life and Death metamorphosed, making it possible for the Mastery of the Five Elements to simulate even chaos dirt.
The organs of heaven and earth were buried extremely deep in the ground. Lu Yun was relying on the hint of sensitivity heâd developed after refining another set to track them down. Cerulean splendor suddenly flashed by himâthe big snake from the Ingress Jade Heavens!
âSo what are you doing here?â Lu Yun asked curiously. âIs your true form a snake?â
âYou know who I am?â The snakeâs lidless eyes blinked with astonishment.
âYouâre Ge Long! Câmon, how would I not recognize you?â Lu Yun smacked his lips. âIngress was a dead giveaway!â
Cerulean light flared from the snakeâs body as it slowly took dao formâDaoist Ingress.
âAre you the forefather of Ingress Jade Heavens or what?â Lu Yun was completely unperturbed by the development. While the old man had said that he couldnât afford to stay in the Disordered Sea, Lu Yun had hardly believed that he would leave, just like that.
Daoist Ingress wasnât a docile or placid sort. Whether he was Ge Long or his current identity, he would certainly stick his nose into a matter like the tomb of the empyrean supreme.
âI count as⊠Ingress Jade Heavensâ⊠spiritual leader, I guess? I was the first empyrean supreme and my status was similar to the primordial heavenly emperor of the chief worlds,â Daoist Ingress responded truthfully.
âThe Jade and Grand Pure Ones have similar identities, but the three of us have been dead for so long that our respective realms have long since disavowed us. As for this big snake⊠hehehe, I killed him when I came across him and turned him into a replica.â
Daoist Ingress was still on the path of recovery. Heâd been an empyrean supreme in his prime and was currently only a peak grand supreme.
While he was just a peak grand supreme, he stood at the apex of that cultivation level. Thus, killing the cerulean snake and refining it had been an easy matter. The dirk that heâd given Lu Yun was the snakeâs most precious treasure.
After Daoist Ingress himself died, all of his own treasures had been partitioned by the Ingress Jade Heavens powerhouses.
âComing to kill the divine spirit with me?â Lu Yun chuckled.
âDonât kill him,â Daoist Ingress suddenly turned solemn. âItâs a trap set by Yun Yi and the heavenly emperor. This is exactly what they wanted to see!â
âWhat?! Just what are they trying to do?!â Lu Yunâs eyes widened. Their current circumstances were precisely the goal??
As things were, everyone gingerly stood on an enormous powder keg. Absolute death and carnage would ensue once it exploded!
Cold sweat beaded Lu Yunâs forehead. He suddenly thought of how Yun Yi had sacrificed one hundred thousand grand supremes in order to revive the Disordered Empyrean Supreme. Were the father and daughter duoâor rather, three generations of that familyâwilling to kill another one hundred peak grand supremes and countless cultivators for the Jade Record of Creation?
On second thought, why wouldnât they?
But how much karma would result from that?! How much retribution??
Just the retribution alone would spontaneously smite them to dust!
Daoist Ingress could only wordlessly shake his head.
The more Lu Yun thought about it, the more plausible he found it to be. Yun Yiâs style was utterly maniacal, after all, to the point of lurid bedlam.
âNo, I have to stop them!â Lu Yun set his jaw. âWho knows what the consequences will be if we let them run wildly like this?!â
