Chapter 1997 – Arrival of the Imperial Seal

Wayfarer and his brethren were here to locate the divine spirit of the organs of the world. Devouring it would make themselves whole.

This divine spirit was the strongest of all divine spirits in existence. Exceeding God during its development was only a matter of time. Thus, that made it rare and extremely precious nourishment for the five senses.

Strictly speaking, Wayfarer and the others were also divine spirits.

“There’s more of them?!” Lu Yun’s heart skipped a beat. Peak grand supremes were dying outside and the aura around the Jade Record of Creation was growing fuller. It was about to take dao form.

“You can eat the divine spirits, but do not stop the Jade Record of Creation from taking shape.” A chilly female voice suddenly rang through the air, quite out of place. A lithe figure in blue descended from the sky, cleaving through the chaos dirt to reach Lu Yun and the others.

“Qiu Feishan?!” Daoist Ingress grew wary when he saw who it was that’d come.

Qiu Feishan’s reputation as the greatest powerhouse among the chief worlds was no empty title. Daoist Ingress didn’t think he’d be a match for her even if it was his primary body here in person.

Although he’d recovered to the point of being a peak grand supreme, his original strength was peak empyrean supreme. He would bear fatal weaknesses and openings so long as he failed to return to his prime—he was no match for a Qiu Feishan in perfect condition.

“I thought it’d be Yun Yi who comes,” Daoist Ingress scoffed. Plainly, he’d suffered lies from Yun Yi as well.

“Yun Yi’s primary body suppresses the fissure between order and disorder, she cannot come.” Qiu Feishan thought for a bit before she sighed, “She wouldn’t even have the chance to explain if she did come.”

Daoist Ingress continued snorting. Indeed, if Yun Yi had come, he would immediately bring his full strength to bear against her. His primary body might even come to kill her.

This vehement reaction was due to him discovering that the plot set up by three generations of this family was awful beyond measure. Not only did it scheme against the grand supremes of the chief worlds, but so did it include grand supremes and peak grand supremes of neighboring realms!

And all of it was just to help the tainted Jade Record of Creation take dao form!

While it’d been Shu Yan and the divine spirit from the organs of the world that’d attacked them, that was just to conceal a certain reality—a terrifying spirit had been born in the Jade Record of Creation.

Lu Yun had originally thought that the spirit came from the organs of the world. He didn’t realize the truth until Shu Yan destroyed the palace of sword light to help the divine spirit from the organs seize possession of his body.

The true spirit within the Jade Record of Creation showed no sign of itself from beginning to end. This entire situation involving the treasure taking dao form to house the organs of the world was most likely for that spirit entity.

The plot was so immense that the manipulators would soon as kill Yun Yi and Daoist Ingress to see it through.

Wayfarer and the others deployed their strongest combat arts and surrounded Qiu Feishan, preventing her from easily departing. Perhaps Daoist Ingress by himself was no match for the greatest in the chief worlds, but the addition of these five and a Lu Yun with the battle strength of a peak grand supreme more than gave them the upper hand.

However, Qiu Feishan wasn’t Yun Yi. She’d stayed out of the plot from beginning to end and devoted her energies to protecting the four ancestral gods in the World of Immortals. Both Fuxi and Daoist Ingress knew her background, which was why they didn’t kill her on sight.

Only an uninvolved Qiu Feishan could come here and be given enough grace to deliver her explanations.

Indeed, she was here to explain.

“Go ahead, speak.” Lu Yun walked up and waved off his companions. For some reason, his gesture set Daoist Ingress and the other five at ease. They relaxed and dismissed their combat arts.

“This is for you.” She handed a jade seal to Lu Yun—the Imperial Seal that once belonged to the primordial heavenly emperor.

It was something that Yun Yi had used against Chu Xingran and Lu Yun’s personal treasure for countless iterations of the Land of Reincarnation. Yun Yi had taken it back, but now Qiu Feishan was here with it again.

“What do you mean by this?” Lu Yun frowned at the treasure instead of taking it.

His thoughts were in disarray. He’d come to the tomb of the empyrean supreme to catch the god of Mount Tai and then borrow the mountain god’s hell dao to create a new Land of Reincarnation. After that, he would think of a way of resurrecting the tree god.

But things here were getting out of control and involving an ever-increasing cast of characters! First it was the Jade Record of Creation, then the primordial world of immortals… And now Yun Yi had Qiu Feishan bring the Imperial Seal back to Lu Yun.

One had to know, Lu Yun would only be a puny high supreme once he relinquished Heavenfall. He didn’t have the right to be entangled in these matters.

He didn’t even have the right to know about them.

Despite that, someone had fully laid out everything in front of him and forced Lu Yun to face the music. By now, he even suspected that Qiu Feishan telling him to come here for the god of Mount Tai was also a trap. It forced him to enter the tomb of the empyrean supreme and be embroiled in these matters.

A myriad of thoughts whirred through his brain. That the Imperial Seal had come into his hand in the first place was likely part of Yun Yi’s plans. She was waiting for the Land of Reincarnation to be ended so Lu Yun could enter the tomb.

“What do you mean by what do you mean?” Qiu Feishan blinked when she heard Lu Yun’s response.

“The Imperial Seal… tsk tsk tsk.” A cold sneer appeared on Lu Yun’s face. “If the divine spirit of the organs had successfully occupied my body, would you still come here with the Imperial Seal and give it to him?”

Qiu Feishan fell silent.

As I thought!

Yun Yi had two plans up her sleeves. Whether the divine spirit succeeded or not, someone would come with the Imperial Seal and give it to whoever was Lu Yun.

He suddenly had a feeling that he’d been running around in the palm of her hand all this time. He’d never broken free and no matter what he did, he would always fall into her plans. Even the arrival of Heavenfall, collecting two thirds of the order of life, and resurrecting Jin Huo had been within Yun Yi’s grasp.

An unsettling chill took root in Lu Yun’s heart. He was lost and didn’t know what to do. He didn’t want to be another’s pawn, but it seemed that every single one of his steps had been taken at the behest of someone else.

He even suspected that his current mentality was within Yun Yi’s expectations. She knew what he would do given the kind of mood he was in and emotions he felt.

Daoist Ingress, Wayfarer and the others were also pale with horror. Lu Yun’s question had prompted the same revelations from them. Shu Yan, the heavenly emperor, and Yun Yi were too terrible to contemplate!

“I’d always thought that the old guy was going head to head with Yun Yi. It looks like he was being completely taken along for a ride,” the Art Saint sighed.
