Everyone was on full alert and focused their attention on each pale blue ripple, maintaining a safe distance from the others. They’d forgotten the brute who robbed them before and the disciple of a supreme. The radiant blue in front of them was their entire world.

……

“I wonder what phenomena will accompany this tide,” someone murmured. “Last time, terrifying headless soldiers came with it. Apparently, only a few supremes survived that phenomena. Everyone else died!”

“That’s bullshit,” came an immediate retort. “If all of the cultivators died, how do you know the last phenomena was headless soldiers?”

“The spirit paper!” the first speaker quickly replied. “A supreme’s disciple was interviewed for a feature article.”

Spatial tides from the Firmament Prison followed a set schedule. Though it wasn’t the most definitive, one occurred roughly every three hundred million years. Hundreds of millions and even billions of cultivators congregated when it did so. Supremes could sometimes be seen as well.

It’d only been eighty million years since the last spatial tide, which happened to be a short period of time in the chief worlds. Even ordinary beings yet to access sequence could live one hundred million years. Therefore, eighty million was nothing to sequence experts. Their lifespans were almost infinite.

Since this instance was so unexpected, only inhabitants of nearby major worlds received word. As such, there were only three hundred thousand in attendance when the spatial tide erupted. There wasn’t a single supreme present.

Tides from the Firmament Prison were no small matter and typically drew a crowd of sequence experts stuck at thirty levels, cultivators at twenty-ninth level who sought to improve their foundations, supremes, and geniuses. Hence, the spirit paper had published a few reports regarding the tides.

Of course, since their source was the Myriad Spirit and Firstspirit Supremes, the information was highly accurate.

“Spirit paper?” the person sneered. “Just a parlor trick from the Abandoned Land. It’s one thing to treat it as idle entertainment, it’s another thing to actually believe it!”

Arf arf arf!

A strange barking came from the depths of the spatial tide, like an enormous dog was chasing something. The louder it grew, the closer it was. Jaws dropped when people saw an image of a strong black dog take shape in the tide.

“The phenomenon this time is… a dog?” Shocked whispers rose and fell. Lu Yun found it incredulous as well.

“I feel like I’ve seen this dog before.” He scratched his head. This dog was somehow familiar.

Hummm.

A small dot of blue shot out from the tide before he could think it over and landed in front of him. He subconsciously caught the radiance that resembled a shooting star. When the blue power of space faded away, a crystal the size of a fist rested in his hand.

“This is…” Lu Yun’s eyes widened. “Empyrean crystal?!”

Who could’ve imagined that empyrean crystal the size of a fist would appear in front of him just like this? According to Chu Xingran, a speck of empyrean crystal could give rise to a major world. So… how many major worlds could this piece of crystal the size of a fist create?

And more importantly, empyrean crystals could be used to refine treasures. When empyrean crystal was added to an item, it gained the power of a world and could be called the ultimate treasure of a world.

“That easy?” Lu Yun hadn’t planned on joining the fight for treasures—he’d already earned one trillion enigma stones. Upon obtaining such a large piece of empyrean crystal, however, he struggled to keep his impulses in check.

Many around him recognized the crystal, but they didn’t dare do anything out of wariness for his identity as a supreme’s disciple.

The empyrean crystal was unusually heavy. If it wasn’t for Lu Yun having crafted the origin hell and thus being bolstered by the strength of hell, he wouldn’t be able to keep his grip on it.

Unbidden, he shoved the crystal into a storage space that he’d refined on the fly.

Boom!

The space collapsed and the empyrean crystal fell out. …along with two axes.

Two great axes.

Three hundred thousand pairs of eyes snapped to the weapons and the atmosphere grew weird. The first treasure from a spatial tide always drew attention, especially when it was the extraordinarily precious empyrean crystal. The crowd’s attention was extremely engaged on Lu Yun.

Quite a few people recognized the unique design of the weapons—this pair of great axes had once rested on many of their necks while a protection fee was extorted out of them.

“Zhu Lingyan, Sir Zhu. Why do you have those axes?” Liang Ruyue was the first to speak. Her voice was so strained that it was barely recognizable. She was the first one who’d had to pay a protection fee.

The unprecedented act of someone demanding protection fees during a spatial tide was memorable enough. At the same time, everyone would only remember the name of the first victim—Liang Ruyue. She was sure to be mentioned in the next issue of the spirit paper. When that happened, she would be firmly nailed to the pillar of shame.

“It’s my treasure, so why can’t I have it?” Lu Yun regained his calm, but was inwardly dismayed. The empyrean crystal was so heavy that very few items could support its weight. His own Disordered Hell hadn’t been able to contain Diexi’s crystal coffin; Leize had to facilitate its entrance to the inner world of the Tome of Life and Death.

Although Lu Yun had casually refined that storage space, it’d been a real world inside. He’d gravely underestimated the empyrean crystal; it’d instantly crushed the minor world he created. That storage world was filled with items that weren’t important to him—the great axes numbered among them.

Thank goodness I sent the enigma stones to hell. The gig would be up right now if not. Lu Yun heaved a slight sigh of relief and toyed with the empyrean crystal.

“Sir Zhu, don’t say that you don’t know who the axes belong to!” someone called out.

“Hurry up already if you want to take my treasure from me. Stop trying to think of all these random excuses,” Lu Yun sneered and shoved the axes into another storage world. He held onto the empyrean crystal as he wasn’t sure if any of his storage worlds could endure its weight. Since he was in the chief worlds, he didn’t want to utilize the world of the Tome of Life and Death.
