Chapter 1919 – Recreating the Dark World

Since Lu Yun was now a grand supreme, he could cross the void without needing a flight treasure or merchant vessel. Furthermore, the big-headed doll was a grand supreme as well. Although not as heaven-defying as he’d been in the Dark World, he certainly had the right to enter the tomb of the empyrean supreme.

Even now, he kept looking in the tomb’s direction. There seemed to be something there calling out to him.

“Safeguard your heart and ignore that thing.” Lu Yun landed on a passing star when he noticed the doll’s abnormal condition. He reached out and smacked the back of the doll’s head.

“Eh? Ah, okay.” The big-headed doll quietly sat down, centering and grounding himself.

Lu Yun looked at Nightmare.

“What is it?” She fidgeted nervously when he stared intently at her.

“Switch to immortal dao now and break through to supreme.” Lu Yun also sensed the summons from the empyrean supreme’s tomb. It looked like the numerous powerhouses of the chief worlds had entered the tomb due to this calling.

“Eh?” Nightmare blinked. She cultivated ghost dao at the moment and planned to switch to immortal dao at some point. She was just waiting for the right moment. It’d have to wait until the Ghost Sect came under Lu Yun’s banner and took up residence in hell, at the very least!

But Nightmare also knew that these days, hell wasn’t as it was before. They would be adding grace to what was already beautiful, not rendering timely assistance in a moment of need. They would have no special status in hell anymore.

The only thing that the Ghost Sect could rely on was Nightmare.

That Lu Yun wanted her to switch to immortal dao now was to separate her from the Ghost Sect. It made her rather uncomfortable. The Ghost Sect would all switch to immortal dao after they entered hell, of course, but having her give up ghost dao now was to sever her karmic ties with the sect ahead of time.

“You will cultivate immortal dao because I tell you to.” Lu Yun frowned when he saw Nightmare hesitate.

The woman trembled. She couldn’t defy Lu Yun’s wishes because her name was written into the Tome of Life and Death, but he’d never forced her to do anything before.

She took a deep breath. As a denizen of hell, switching to immortal dao was but the work of a thought. It didn’t require any effort to change her ghostly force into ghostly force under the immortal dao.

And then Nightmare broke through, exceeded sequence, and became a supreme.

When she subconsciously gathered her shards of sequence to craft a dao palace of black and gold, Lu Yun destroyed it with a casual backhand. In his eyes, dao palaces affected cultivators too much, despite enabling them to continue cultivating. One had no need for a dao palace if one’s nascent spirit was strong enough.

After she became a supreme of the immortal dao, Nightmare could sense how strong this great dao was. She stared at her hands and took a deep breath.

“Grand Supreme Luo Qian utilized a secret art to make the strength of a grand supreme available to me in the Dark World. Many long-term effects will plague me after that strength fades away, but now…” She discovered that the long-term effects she thought would weaken her were gone. Her potential and foundation had reached heights that she couldn’t have imagined before.

She wasn’t as perverse as Lu Yun in the sense of slapping a high supreme to death with one palm strike, but she was absolutely a peak supreme.

A peak supreme right after breaking through?

More importantly was that she ascended within fanfare or disturbance. This was the most shocking of all.

Lu Yun heaved a slight sigh of relief to see Nightmare thus. Through formula dao, he’d just discovered untoward changes with the Ghost Sect. Nightmare would die if she returned now, but if they didn’t go, the entire sect would be lost.

He didn’t care about the Ghost Sect, but since Nightmare was now one of his, he had to look out for his people.

“What is that to be so terrifying?!” the big-headed doll suddenly squawked. “I won’t be able to withstand temptation after a while and will run off to the tomb of the empyrean supreme!”

“I have no idea either.” Lu Yun looked in the tomb’s direction. A terrifyingly insistent summons had risen from his heart after he broke through to supreme. It constantly urged him, like hypnosis, to make his way to the tomb.

“Do you know?” He abruptly turned around and looked behind him.

“You discovered my presence?” Nine Claw gradually materialized with displeasure.

“Nope, that was just a shot in the dark.” Lu Yun shook his head.

Nine Claw: ……

“Are you not affected by that thing?” Lu Yun asked.

“I’m a god, and an evil one at that. The thing in the tomb doesn't think much of me.” Nine Claw curled his lip and looked at Nightmare with surprise. “Strange, you have become a supreme without a dao palace and should be one of the preeminent beings of this realm. Why aren’t you affected?”

Nightmare shrugged. She belonged to the Tome of Life and Death; no matter how strong the thing in the tomb was, it didn’t dare try to snatch someone from the book. Lu Yun however, was different. He was one with the treasure. Although he was its master, that identity was hidden, so the thing in the tomb couldn’t sense it.

“Because I’m trash.” Nightmare retreated behind Lu Yun.

“Are you going to the Ghost Sect with me?” Lu Yun asked.

“No, I’m here to stop you from going to the Ghost Sect,” Nine Claw shook his head. “If you go now, you’ll die without a doubt even with my protection! Not even Yun Yi or Tailong would make a difference.”

Golden light shimmered over his body as he spoke.

“Wow, there are people you can’t handle in the chief worlds?” Lu Yun raised an eyebrow.

“I am the second strongest in the chief worlds,” Tailong nodded. “But what if that person is not from the chief worlds?”

“Huh?” Lu Yun blinked. “Forget the chief worlds. If you’re number two, who’s number one?”

“The woman from the Autumnus Realm currently in the World of Immortals,” Nine Claw snapped. “If it wasn’t for her, I would’ve gone to the World of Immortals a long time ago and eaten the azure dragon ancestral god! Would I be wasting my time here?”

“Not from the chief worlds…? Then who? A place outside the chief worlds? A place even more vast and grand?” Lu Yun rubbed his temples.

“The land of darkness.” Nine Claw flicked a sidelong glance at him. “A place even more vast and grand? Only empyrean supremes have the right to see it.

“The land of darkness must create another Dark World after you destroyed this one. They’ve chosen the Ghost Sect as the new site and sent a supreme powerful dark grand supreme. I am no match for it, and you will be dead without a doubt if you go!”
