Chapter 1731: Hell Battleship
“How dare that bastard Chu Xingran ambush me!” A bedraggled figure stumbled out of the void of the fourth realm—the Xie Tianxun that’d been stomped to death by Chu Xingran. He was in sorry shape and barely maintained a humanoid form.
“Thank goodness my Lifeline Talisman took the fall for me, but I will have revenge for this! That pathetic Chu Xingran really does think he can do whatever he wants just because he’s latched onto the dragon race’s thigh!”
Rays of golden light seeped out from the cracks of his body and repaired his injuries. Meanwhile, Xie Tianxun inspected a tattered piece of paper—the Lifeline Talisman that’d saved his life. He’d paid a hefty price for it and it was already damaged beyond repair. Talismans such as these were inordinately valuable in the outside realm; they were the equivalent of an extra life.
The Land of Reincarnation was so dangerous that one might die at the slightest lapse of attention. Jiang Kui had carried a similar talisman on him and thus avoided death at Lu Yun’s hands. With Chu Xingran destroying such a precious treasure, Xie Tianxun itched to skin him alive and rip him to pieces with bare hands.
“But that Chu Xingran is dead meat after he dared to trick the Esteemed Nebula. I won’t even need to lift a finger. That esteemed personage isn’t a generous soul either, he’ll fish out Chu Xingran despite the dragons protecting the bastard and kill him!” Xie Tianxun murmured to himself, “The cycles of the Land of Reincarnation are about to end, but it’s still too dangerous for me to be here. I need to quickly locate a logical identity to assume. There’s supposedly a guardian of this land and also an inspector that oversees everything inside. They kill everything that is not native to this land.”
He’d borrowed the Esteemed Nebula’s strength to enter the land independently and bypass interference from the reincarnation system. That’d also enabled him to evade the guardian and inspector, but now that he’d come back to life after death, the marks that Esteemed Nebula had left on him had faded away.
He represented only himself now.
“Eh? So fast! How can a mere third level sequence travel so fast?” Xie Tianxun jerked his head to the side when a streak of white light punched through the void. It wasn’t the power of a transportation formation, but the simple result of comprehending the rules of space to unprecedented heights.
“Well well well, the sequence they wield is the one of immortal dao. You’re it!” Glee bloomed over Xie Tianxun’s face. He hadn\'t thought that the first person he’d meet in the primary worlds would be suitable to be his identity. A cultivator who’d set foot into immortal dao sequence!
Unbidden, he punched the swiftly traveling figure, knocking it out of the void.
Xie Tianxun didn’t hesitate to direct a palm strike at it.
“What the heck?!” Lu Yun gasped with surprise. Though he’d calculated that this trip wouldn’t be peaceful, he hadn’t been able to derive what would obstruct him. The threat was a… young man?
The young man was peak ninth level sequence and even stronger power lurked in his body. The rest of his might had been restricted from use.
“I am your daddy, not a what!” Xie Tianxun was even more delighted to see that the puny little cultivator hadn’t been injured from his punch. He’d pulled his blow out of concern that he’d damage the cultivator’s body. Still, that strike had been enough to scatter the soul of a third level sequence being. However, the young man in front of him remained unharmed!
This was a powerhouse with incredible potential. If he claimed this body, Xie Tianxun would seize the initiative in this wreckage of a land!
“Die!!” he roared and struck again, coming straight for Lu Yun’s head.
The palm strike howled with thunder and lightning, forming the magnificent power of a world that belonged to neither great dao nor order, but the strength of a world derived from order.
Lu Yun’s eyes widened with shock. The stranger’s attack reminded him of the fight between Jiang Kui and Chu Xingran in the Abyssal Hell. One slash from Jiang Kui had destroyed Lu Yun’s soybean replica.
In the nearly two thousand years since he’d returned to the fourth realm, Lu Yun had spent nearly every waking moment theorizing Jiang Kui’s stunning move. The man had utilized neither great dao nor order, just the basics of his cultivation.
The true offensive came from the strength of a world.
When great dao, order, rules, laws, and everything else came together, their ultimate expression of form was a world. The strength of a world.
The path of immortal dao cultivation also created a tiny world within one’s nascent spirit. Granted, there was no complete and flawless world in the entire fourth realm and Land of Reincarnation. How could the tiny ones formed by an immortal’s nascent spirit compare to the ones of the outside realm?!
The worlds in the Central Hongmeng were still developing and hadn’t reached full form yet. Only when the worlds assimilated the chaos, Hongmeng, and radiated throughout Boundless Planes would they count as complete. Only then would they be real worlds!
“I know nothing about the true form of a world… they exist only in the outside realm!” Lu Yun faded away and reappeared in another spot, his eyes fixed on Xie Tianxun. “I need to capture him and strip his memories from him. I want to learn more about the heavenly dao in the outside realm!”
RUMBLE!!
Black lightning ripped through the void and gave rise to black ripples through the air. A massive black ship sailed out behind Lu Yun and blocked Xie Tianxun’s third attack.
“What is that??” The young man’s expression shifted drastically when he saw the vessel. It was as if a savage beast had leapt out of the void, snarling and brandishing its claws at him. He was weak at the knees—he might have to utilize his full strength to barely contend with the ship.
But Xie Tianxun was from the outside realm and thus the land’s restrictions on him were even more severe. When natives from the Land of Reincarnation arrived in the primary worlds, they were at most threatened by the worlds’ orders. If they dared utilize strength over nine levels, they would be attacked by order—but there was still a chance for their survival.
Anything from the outside realm had their strength over ninth level outright sealed away. They wouldn’t be able to call upon it even on the brink of death!
Lu Yun had derived that he’d meet with trouble on the way to Mount Astronomia, but he’d also come prepared since he was going to defend the mountain from the latest incursion by their enemies.
Apart from cultivation, inventing the hell furnace, and refining one hundred and eight hell cannons over the past two thousand years had all been appetizers. He’d also prepared a main course, an exquisitely crafted ship powered by hell.
A hell battleship!
His six-thousand-strong Hell Legion was lined up in neat rows inside it.
