Chapter 1953 – Who’s the Demon


Lu Yun formed a bit of curiosity and fascination for the legendary genius after Cen Sui spoke of his exploits. When he met Miao in person, he felt that all the stories didn’t measure up to one encounter with the actual person. If it wasn’t for his Boundless Step death art, he wouldn’t have caught sight of even Miao’s shadow.


He stood no chance if they started fighting each other. Lu Yun would be no match for him even if he used the Three Brushes of Reincarnation and the second form of the Divine Fists of h.e.l.l—Black Dragon Clutches A Star.

“You’ve heard of me before?” Miao asked with surprise. He habitually kept a low profile and never unduly publicized his feats in the chief worlds. Even the most prolific spirit paper in the realm had never run an article on him.


But this unknown young man had identified him on his first try!


“The elders at home mentioned you once or twice,” Lu Yun responded with an easy smile.


“I see,” Miao inclined his head. “I’m still not used to traveling with others. Good day.”


He appeared easygoing, but his tone was anything but. Very patently keeping Lu Yun at arm’s length, he wasn’t interested in getting to know the other at all.


This time when he left, Lu Yun didn’t give chase.


“Forget it, all geniuses have weird tempers,” Lu Yun pouted. He wouldn’t shamelessly trail after the guy if he was unwilling to be friends. Lu Yun cleared his mind of random thought and continued down the path.


Miao had been sitting cross-legged on the golden bridge of heaven and earth likely for the same purpose as Lu Yun—he wanted to perceive the secrets in the bridge to use as a blueprint for his own combat arts.


He’d most likely failed.


Lu Yun didn’t know how long the bridge was. He could see the fiery divine mountain whenever he lifted his head and also pick out the ma.s.sive burial mound layout within it. Likewise, he could determine the patterns created by the Enneawyrm Coffinbearers.


But the end of the bridge didn’t come into sight no matter how far he walked.


Indiscernible ghostly shadows flitted around him, raising gusts of yin wind that howled at his ear. Instead of the resentment of the primordial heavenly emperor, they were creatures of darkness that’d died on the bridge.


When the tomb opened, everyone understood it to be the tomb of an empyrean supreme from the chief worlds. The endarkened lurking in the realm were naturally curious about the secrets inside. What could they find out about their enemies?


In the same vein, the primordial heavenly emperor showed no mercy to his ancient enemy. The resentment that lingered on the bridge’s surface was enough to kill the majority of endarkened that crossed. Those who could pa.s.s were the strongest from the darkness.


Creatures that died during their pa.s.sage were naturally bitter about their death. There was a large burial mound in front of them—burial mounds bred ghosts, so those who perished here turned into ghosts to kill everyone else that tried to pa.s.s.


Lu Yun suddenly felt the scene darken in front of him. The mountain was gone, replaced by a dense layer of thunderclouds. A shadow with a tendril of crimson smoke wrapped around it walked out of the gloom. It charged Lu Yun before he could react, releasing towering resentment and throwing itself into the young man’s body.


“A mere yin soul wants to steal my body?” Lu Yun sneered and nearly let loose with h.e.l.lfire. Just a second before he did so, he broke out in a cold sweat.


The grand supremes of the darkness would absolutely capture any hint of h.e.l.l that appeared in existence. They were on guard for it, and anything having to do with h.e.l.l would be connected to him. He’d caught the eye of their peak grand supremes and would attract personal attention from one if the presence of h.e.l.l appeared.


The land of darkness preferred to kill innocents to ensure that they left no stone unturned!


Whoos.h.!.+


The yet-to-be-released h.e.l.lfire abruptly turned into the silver flames of order.


The fire of order consumed all disorder in the chief worlds and suppressed creatures of darkness. The yin soul in front of him was manifested from a perished endarkened, making it both a ghost and a creature of darkness. It shrieked with dismay when fire roared into existence around it, then hastily retreated at ten times the speed from before.


“An order cultivator from the chief worlds!” it p.r.o.nounced with difficulty. Its resentment abruptly trans.m.u.ted into killing intent and it suddenly took tangible form—four heads, eight arms.


It was the form of the creature that Lu Yun had seen when he first arrived in the tomb. They were from the same tribe. It wasn’t the one who he’d killed earlier since that one had been held in a prison and turned to dust. This one possessed no rules of disorder and wielded only ghostly force from disorder.


It snarled and came for Lu Yun once more.


Creatures of order from the chief worlds were the greatest enemy of the darkness. The threat that they posed was greater than what was represented by peak grand supremes. Peak grand supremes used force against all things, including the endarkened, but cultivators of order used ingenuity and cleverness in the absence of strength.


In the war between the two sides, grand supremes of order could harm the peak grand supremes of the darkness. Thus, when an order cultivator appeared in front of an endarkened, it would take down this nemesis through whatever means possible. Even if it’d died in an unknown land.


The wisp of disorder churned the local order into pieces, using an extremely short period of time to turn the area into a land of disorder and darkness. The ghost then set itself on fire to consume its core essence and its last mark of life. Once the mark was consumed, it would no longer exist.


It wanted to ensure mutual destruction with Lu Yun!


The young man regarded the development with some alarm. The creature was dead, but was still unwilling to submit!


Whoos.h.!.+


It released a pure black flame that set its body ablaze. This was the flame of disorder, much like the one of order.


The chief worlds were a place of order and possessed the relevant cultivators and fires. The land of darkness was one of disorder and naturally boasted of the appropriate cultivators and fires as well.


The creature in front of Lu Yun wasn’t a cultivator of disorder. It was igniting the fire of disorder with its own core essence so it could do battle with the human.


“Die, demon!” it roared and extended its arms, latching onto Lu Yun. It wanted to use its fire and the power of darkness in the vicinity to burn its foe alive.


For a moment, Lu Yun’s fire of order was swallowed by disorder. Order could suppress disorder in the chief world, but in the darkness, disorder could suppress order!


“Demon!” Lu Yun grit his teeth. “a.s.sholes that have invaded my chief worlds call me the demon?! I’ll show you what’s a demon!”


Whoos.h.!.+


He threw caution to the wind and flared with black h.e.l.lfire. Whether it was disorder or order, all was destroyed when they met h.e.l.lfire.


“h.e.l.l…” was all the creature had time for before it turned to dust.


It wasn’t taken by the Tome of Life and Death.
