Chapter 1979 – Divine Feather Empyrean Supreme

“I’ve been feeling for a while now that something is amiss.” Jin Huo frowned and stretched out her right hand, making some calculations off her fingers. It was a calculation technique unique to peak grand supremes, not formula dao.

When she next looked at Lu Yun, her expression was stiff.

“What is it?” The young man arched a brow.

Jin Huo waved a water curtain into existence before Lu Yun. It pictured a massive tombstone with three bloody characters: Lu Yun’s Tomb.

“How did you offend him?” she spoke stiltedly. The owner of this tombstone was someone even she was highly wary of.

“Um…” Lu Yun’s eyes went wide open. The tombstone that’d nailed Miao to death had him in its sights as its next target?

Chu Xun’s tombstone was gone; only his could be seen. Lu Yun had been feeling a shadow over his heart for a while, but hadn’t been able to determine what had gone wrong. His cultivation was too weak—even though he possessed the strength of a grand supreme when he wielded Heavenfall, he was still unable to deduce anything about terrifying existences like the tombstone’s owner.

The same didn’t hold true for Jin Huo, especially as she controlled two thirds of the order of life. As strong as the tombstone’s owner might be, he couldn’t pull the wool over Jin Huo’s eyes since he was another fellow peak grand supreme.

At the same time, Jin Huo could only identify his methods, not nullify them. The tombstone’s owner remained one of the most terrifying existences in the burial mound. He was an absolute powerhouse among peak grand supremes and he was dead. There was nothing that the living could do to him.

A face devoid of color appeared in the water curtain, his eyes boring a hole in Lu Yun.

“Jin Huo, Shu Yan can freely walk away after ruining my plans because I cannot afford to provoke him. But even you dare have designs on one that I have decided on?”

The tombstone’s owner stared at Jin Huo with eyes that lacked pupils.

She chuckled and shifted to the side, revealing the tomb of the shamanic ancestor behind her.

“You do know that the last member of the Divine Feathers lies here?” she smiled.

Bam!

The water curtain exploded and the tombstone owner’s face vanished. It came with an instant easing of the burden on Lu Yun’s heart. That lingering haze was no more.

“That’s it? That’s all it took?” Lu Yun blinked. He knew what this meant. The master behind the grand-supreme-level ghost had given up on the idea to nail him to the tombstone.

“Let’s go.” Jin Huo changed the topic instead of responding. “We can’t afford to offend what lies here and neither can the empyrean supreme from the land of darkness. He won’t dare to scheme against the Disordered Empyrean Supreme here.

“Remember what I told you before? We must stand taller if we are to look further. The Divine Feather young man might be someone so great that we cannot see him until we stand at the height of an empyrean supreme.”

Lu Yun opened the Spectral Eye again to take another look at the tomb of the shamanic ancestor. It was still an ordinary young man inside, one with indistinct features in a long and slender black corpse. Everything about his life, death, and experiences was available to him.

But it was this minor character that scared off the owner of the tombstone, a peak grand supreme?

“I still think that the Disordered Empyrean Supreme is here,” Lu Yun shook his head. “This is the tomb of the shamanic ancestor, so the shaman ancestor is buried here along with the young man. But the ancestor is no longer the owner of this tomb.”

Jin Huo frowned, unwilling to approach the structure.

“The Divine Feather race is adept with bow and arrow.” She looked at the skull in front of the tomb, the skull that had been pierced through with the owner’s own arrow.

“The Divine Feather race…” Lu Yun thought of a person as he turned the name over in his mind. The name of the person he thought of had something to do with this race. Repeated calculations also told him that while the tomb was uncanny, there wasn’t much danger inside. He might even happen upon unexpected gains.

With that in mind, he stepped forward and walked toward the massive black skull.

Frowning ferociously, Jin Huo followed him.

“He’s still hale and hearty after cultivating the Dragonquake Scripture. The Divine Feather race shouldn’t do anything to him, right?” she mumbled to himself.

The massive skull that towered like a mountain was the entrance to the tomb. The burial mound of the empyrean supreme was turning out to be different to any other tomb that Lu Yun had ever been in. This tomb within a tomb was a key point in the burial mound.

The dark empyrean supreme was responsible for the four blood demons of dragon, phoenix, turtle, and qilin gaining sentience. That was why Lu Yun was certain that the empyrean supreme had more moves to make.

If Lu Yun didn’t enter the shamanic ancestor’s tomb, then the Disordered Empyrean Supreme would be dead without a doubt. Although he did want that to happen, trouble would come for him if it happened at this juncture. He couldn’t withstand the land of darkness, not with his current level of strength, especially as the one from the darkness was a living empyrean supreme.

Although the World of Immortals had Pangu, God, and Leize’s family, they would’ve swept all of their enemies away a long time ago if they could do so. Why would they have to seek shelter in the World of Immortals?

Indeed, seek shelter.

In Lu Yun’s eyes, they hid within the World of Immortals because there was something in the chief worlds and other locales that they feared. At the same time, there was something in the World of Immortals that intimidated the terrible existences outside.

Lu Yun, Jin Huo, and the fast asleep Chu Xun entered the skull’s mouth.

“You’ve finally come, Jin Huo.” A clear, ethereal voice rang out the moment the three set foot inside.

“Are you not fully dead?” Jin Huo blinked. She recognized the voice—the third empyrean supreme of the chief worlds.

The Plumed Empyrean Supreme.

A nearly transparent figure appeared in front of them. It was so weak that it was nigh impossible to make out, but exist it did.

It ignored Lu Yun and approached Jin Huo, speaking in the same even tones. “I am dead. What you see is a projection from the last fragment of my mind when I was still alive.”

What was most surprising to Lu Yun was that this empyrean supreme had anticipated that Jin Huo would come—or rather, that she would come back to life!

“Tell no one what I am about to tell you!”Lu Yun saw the empyrean supreme’s mouth move, but he couldn’t hear anything. He couldn’t even sense any emotional ripples.

It was the combat art of personalized transmission.
