Chapter 1929 – Disordered Sea
“It’s not that simple,” the dark grand supreme shook her head. “How can they possibly overlook something that you think of?” Her eyes shone brightly. “It’s strange—they haven’t refined my ethereal soul part and Chu Xingran isn’t a grand supreme. What are they doing?”
“You’re not implying that they’re trying to determine my existence, are you?” her counterpart cackled. “My corporeal soul part is held at the sacred land and this body doesn’t mean anything to me. I’ll self detonate if it comes down to that. Heh, the consequences of a grand supreme self detonating…
“It’d be best if we can eliminate that Yun Yi this time. And Lu Yun—he’s a grave threat to deliver a loss to Your Reverence. We cannot allow him to develop further, so he must be eliminated this time as well.”
The dark grand supreme remained silent; her brows suddenly furrowed.
“Lu Yun! Right, Lu Yun! Where is he now??” She scanned the World of Immortals and saw no sign of him in the realm or the major worlds it’d conquered. “We need to go!” She grabbed the man and the two vanished on the spot.
After resurrecting through one of her corporeal soul parts, the dark grand supreme was now such a grand supreme instead of a peak one. A moment after they left, a ripple undulated through the void and Qiu Feishan appeared.
“So there are indeed spies in the chief worlds… but who is he?” she frowned tightly.
……
“Land of darkness idiots.” Lu Yun stretched lazily on a shooting star. He’d changed his appearance through Shapes.h.i.+fting—not even peak grand supremes could see through to his true form anymore.
He’d broken through and was a high supreme. Setting out alone for the tomb of the empyrean supreme, he brought no one with him. Not Qing Yu, the little fox, or anyone else. He left them all behind in the World of Immortals.
Yun Yi was right, Qing Yu and the little fox couldn’t go to the tomb with him. They couldn’t even leave the World of Immortals. If they did, the land of darkness would immediately swoop in. His dao partners had become his greatest weakness after he caught the eye of the land of darkness. The darkness stopped at nothing against their enemies. In fact, their primary target likely wasn’t Lu Yun now, but Qing Yu and the little fox.
He thought nothing of the ruckus that the chief worlds had raised in the World of Immortals. While the situation seemed to be in shambles, it was the same as last time—an opportunity to identify the restless factors of society and take care of them once and for all.
As for how the chief worlds viewed the World of Immortals, did that matter?
The realm’s survival had never depended on the chief worlds. In fact, they would very likely war with each other in the future.
Lu Yun didn’t need to worry about the dark grand supreme that’d become part of the chief worlds. Yun Yi, Qiu Feishan, or the Dao King would pursue that matter to the end. Thus, he made use of the disturbance to quietly slip out of the World of Immortals and head for the tomb of the empyrean supreme.
The land of darkness might have laid down a tight encirclement at the tomb, but everything had to wait for confirmation of Lu Yun’s precise movements before plans could commence. He would likely catch them off guard if he entered the tomb like this as a high supreme. He didn’t bother picking a new name or ident.i.ty for himself. Blending in with the crowd would serve his purposes equally well and leave no trace of him to be found.
……
The tomb of the empyrean supreme was located in a very far off locale in the chief worlds. Even as a high supreme, it took a tremendous amount of effort for Lu Yun to reach it. It was located within an enormously chaotic region. Order reigned weakly there and everything was tangled together in a muddled mess. Snarls of laws and rules spun around each other as terrifying vortexes in the void.
Not only that, but s.p.a.ce was also in disarray. The situation was dire enough to give grand supremes pause. If jumbled spatial power propelled them to one of the vortexes, they wouldn’t even have time to feel regret for their actions.
This region was known as the most dangerous place in the chief worlds—the Disordered Sea. Only cultivators above high supremes could enter. Supremes would find no hope of survival.
It was also why Yun Yi prevented Lu Yun from bringing Qing Yu and the little fox. They wouldn’t make it past the sea, and the tomb of the empyrean supreme could only be found at its end.
Publicly acknowledged as the most hazardous place in the chief worlds, supremes were barred from entry. High supremes and grand supremes ran the risk of peris.h.i.+ng if they came, a stark contrast to the Firmament Prison, where they could come and go like it was their own backyard.
But all grand supremes in the realm knew what the Firmament Prison was, so they didn’t easily trespa.s.s for fear of offending Yun Yi.
Lu Yun had refined a star and used it as his vehicle, crossing the Disordered Sea with it. Since he’d just broken through to high supreme, internal force raced through his body. Therefore, he spent most of his time digesting his new strength and acclimating to his new cultivation level.
He’d broken through to supreme in a very natural way that seemed to be the logical next step in his cultivation. But his ascension this time was very different—he hadn’t yet acc.u.mulated enough strength for this breakthrough. Lu Yun had forced it for his trip to the tomb.
Given that crossing the Disordered Sea would take an indeterminate period of time, it was the perfect interval for him to take in his newfound strength and familiarize himself with being a high supreme.
Bam!
He suddenly thrust out his palm and destroyed a vortex drifting near him. When a tiny hint of disordered intent entered his body and tried to occupy his mind, Lu Yun snorted with amus.e.m.e.nt.
A spark of silver fire completely consumed the tiny intent. His h.e.l.l was based off of the Disordered h.e.l.l—the h.e.l.l consumed and suppressed everything that was disorderly. These tiny vortexes rampaging through the void posed no threat to him, unless they grew big enough to swallow him entirely.
However, the big vortexes were fixed to a certain location and couldn’t drift around. Lu Yun would be safe as long as he kept his distance or didn’t brush past the disordered spatial power that would bring him to them.
……
He suddenly opened his eyes and watched as a severed arm drifted past him. A feeble thought ripple emanated from it. Lu Yun could tell that it belonged to a grand supreme—one that wasn’t dead yet, but just about.
Unbidden, he stopped and waved the limb into his hand.
“Eh? You’re trying to possess me?” Lu Yun raised an eyebrow at the arm. A forceful mind had barreled into Lu Yun’s the second he took hold of the arm, seeking to pulverize the young man’s thoughts and replace the owner of the body.
An ordinary high supreme wouldn’t be able to withstand a grand supreme, but Lu Yun was no ordinary high supreme. He formed h.e.l.lfire into a dagger and easily cut the mind into pieces.
The grand supreme died completely and became a new denizen of h.e.l.l. And so, the World of Immortals gained another grand supreme.
Lu Yun smacked his lips and stroked his chin. “It’s a troubled route to the tomb of the empyrean supreme… People die often and these struggling survivors can be found everywhere…”
He adjusted his bearing to set course for where the arm had come from. His newest grand supreme told him that a connate treasure was forming out of the Disordered Sea. Most cultivators outside the tomb were gathered in that direction. He hadn’t died from being churned into one of the vortexes, but to a group of his peers.

Multiple other grand and high supremes were critically injured as well. They were left to their own devices and drifted through the void.
Lu Yun naturally wouldn’t let this chance pa.s.s him by; he was also very interested in that connate treasure! Hence, he directed the star beneath his feet to the relevant spot.
“No way… there’s a major world in a place like this?” His eyes widened. There was a major world in front of him, one bigger than any he’d seen before.
The largest he’d seen thus far was the Luo Trading Major World. But compared to this one, the Luo Trading Major World was like the Earth juxtaposed with the sun.
“Is this major world the connate treasure being born from the Disordered Sea?” Lu Yun’s jaw dropped.
