Chapter 2220.1: Origination Mountain

“It’s the Undying Immortal King’s personal weapon, the Luminous Lotus Throne…” Lu Yun took a deep breath. So someone had shattered the Undying Immortal King’s true spirit and it’d returned to its origins to appear here! “What kind of place is this?” The question rose in the young man’s heart.

The sword pagoda belonged to the Mindful Immortal Potentate and Terra Demon once slumbered inside it. The auras of the five immortal kings under the central immortal emperor had appeared here, and the entrance to this place of burial was sealed by the sword pagoda before he claimed it.

“Forget it, I need to get the Void Sacred Flame first.” Lu Yun put everything out of his mind.

Numerous cultivators were already charging for the flame. However, being ranked third on the list of heavenly fires, the Void Sacred Flame’s might could be only described as world-ending. The sea of flames twenty-five kilometers around it was the fire that it was projecting into its surroundings.

Whoosh!

Many flung themselves into the sea. Despite operating incantations to part the flames, they didn’t even have a chance to scream before being reduced to ashes.

“What a bunch of idiots.” The young man in purple didn’t move; he simply sneered at the cultivators fighting each other to fling themselves to their deaths. “It looks like no one can fight me for the Void Sacred Flame.”

A happy smile spread over the young man’s face. “The ninety-ninth prince has gone to the north. He’s the only one in this place of burial who can possibly pose a challenge to me.”

“What should we do, Your Grace?” asked a fawning peak awakened cultivator next to the young man called Yan Beifei.

“Wait for everyone to die. We can collect the flame then.” Yan Beifei crossed his arms over his chest and looked on with amusement.

After the Origin King’s army lost at Dark City, most of them returned to Great Xia. There were only a few who stayed, including Yan Guichi’s youngest son, Yan Beifei.

Yan Beifei and Nalan Tu were the two most accomplished youngsters of the Origin Sect’s younger generation. Both were awakened stage and their potential beyond compare. Yan Beifei was a hair weaker than Nalan Tu, but he was much younger than Nalan Tu.

As much as Yan Guichi doted on his youngest son, he didn’t overly spoil the child. Yan Beifei’s accomplishments were solely due to his own efforts. None of it came from his father.

“Your Grace, look over there!” Another awakened cultivator suddenly pointed at Lu Yun. “That… seems to be Lu Tianling’s grandson!”

“What?!” Yan Beifei shook and snapped his gaze in the relevant direction. “You’re right, it’s Lu Yun! You spurn the avenue to heaven and force your way into hell instead… Since I’ve caught sight of you, Lu Yun, come and meet your fate!”

He ignored the cultivators fighting over the Void Sacred Flame and flew toward the Lu young master.

“Lu Yun! To think that I’d see you here!” Yan Beifei landed right in front of the other and brandished an immortal sword that belched lilac sword light. “Come quietly with me or I’ll break your limbs and cripple your cultivation.”

Three dozen awakened cultivators jointly sealed off the void to reinforce his threat.

“And you are…” Lu Yun frowned, not recognizing the speaker.

“You’ll know who I am when you come with me,” Yan Beifei cackled and didn’t wait for a response. Sword light flashed from his weapon and made for Lu Yun’s head. He knew that this was a rare chance in a thousand years, that it would be beyond difficult to capture Lu Yun after leaving Immortal Burial Valley.

While the Fengxian King said that he’d repaid the Lu family for their favor, he still secretly opposed the Origin King. Thus, the latter didn’t dare openly move against the Lus.

Killing intent flashed through Lu Yun’s eyes. Though he didn’t know who the newcomer was, someone who bore him so much enmity could only come from the Origin King’s side.

“You court death!” Lu Yun twisted into a massive crimson dragon when he saw the sword light and pounced on Yan Beifei.

“I knew you’d do that!” the young man roared with laughter. He stepped through the air and exploded into thousands of images. Each of them erupted with cutting sword light that slashed at Lu Yun.

Pfft pfft pfft!

Lu Yun’s dragon image was eviscerated in less than half a breath. If it wasn’t for him roaming through the air through the Nine Forms of the Cloud Dragon, this move would’ve gravely injured him.

“Void Fissure, Slash!” Yan Beifei’s second technique arrived before Lu Yun could catch his breath.

Purple sword radiance ballooned thirty thousand meters tall and the void trembled with the movement of Yan Beifei’s sword. Hints of what seemed like spatial fissures bubbled up in the air.

Yan Beifei’s just a cultivator, but he’s feeling around the trajectory of the rules and beginning to comprehend his own dao! Lu Yun’s eyes widened. Yan Beifei was an incredible genius!

Someone like him possessed boundless potential and would be one of the most preeminent immortals once he ascended. It was possible that he’d bypass the lower ranks and jump ahead to a mid rank immortal!

The trajectory of the rules was typically accessible after one reached golden immortal. One used a hint of that understanding to slowly set foot on one’s own dao. Yan Beifei’s Void Fissure showed signs of the rules and not the five elements. His was the rule of the void.

He can’t be permitted to live! A cold light flashed through Lu Yun’s eyes as his aura flared and he deployed Fire Slaughter of the Five Elements of Absolute Slaughter. Rays of fiery sword light revolved around him and blocked Yan Beifei’s Void Fissure. At the same time, he was flung back for nearly two hundred meters.

“So strong!” Lu Yun’s arms were slightly numb.

“You blocked a move at sixty percent of my full strength?” Yan Beifei blinked. He wanted to take Lu Yun alive and force Lu Tianling to acquiesce to their demands, so he hadn’t brought his full strength to bear. “You’re Lu Tianling’s grandson alright! Since sixty percent won’t kill you, I’m using my full strength next!”

As his subordinates had sealed off the area with a massive formation, he wasn’t afraid of his quarry getting away. Yan Beifei raised his sword with both hands and slashed at the air. A black fissure grew beneath it, instantaneously cutting through the void and shooting for Lu Yun.

It was only one meter long, but it was a true void fissure. Spatial turbulence could be glimpsed through it and it arrived at its target in one thousandth of a breath.

Pfft!

The fissure ripped the young man apart.

“Oh? That was a fake? Looks like you obtained quite an immortal treasure here.” Yan Beifei wasn’t surprised to see Lu Yun be cut apart. Lu Tianling’s grandson wouldn’t be who he was if he died so easily.

“You comprehended a hint of the trajectory of the rules as an awakened cultivator. You’re stronger than Yan Guichi.” Lu Yun reappeared three hundred meters away from his opponent. “But I’ve seen too many people like you and few are those who can make it to the end.”

“My thoughts precisely,” Yan Beifei answered leisurely instead of flying into a rage. “There have been plenty of perverse geniuses since time immemorial, but even more fall on their way to becoming one of the truly powerful. You will join their numbers today.”

His sword erupted with radiance once more; sword light filled the void like it was a river.

“Void Shift!”

Whoosh!

Under the purple sword light, Lu Yun found the void growing turbulent. There would likely be numerous unexpected outcomes if he tried his Teleportation combat art now. This turbulence was layered onto the void fissure from earlier. “If I can’t dodge it, then I’ll just kill you!”

Humm!

Immortals Forbidden flared with scintillating crimson light. It was as if a blazing sun rose from the air.

The first stroke of the Nine Oscillations of the Heavenly Sword!

Lu Yun utilized another sword dao technique alongside the Nine Oscillations this time—Fire Slaughter! Raging sword qi permeated the air!

A brilliant sun rose, so blindingly bright that it threatened to blind onlookers. Each ray of light was a terrifying beam of sword light that could destroy the world.

Crimson and purple sword light clashed against each other, drawing groaning sounds of overtaxation from the void. Void Shift was a sword technique that threw space into disorder. The Nine Oscillations of the Heavenly Sword melded sword qi into the void. When the two crashed together, the void itself was ripped apart. How else would mere cultivators affect space?

Boom!

The two rays of light negated each other and created a brief vacuum in the air. The energy of heaven and earth was churned to pieces and destroyed.

Cultivators off the battlefield regarded the disturbance with incredulity.

“Who are these two? Can immortals actually come inside, after all?” Some hearts pounded ferociously.

“Who would’ve thought that this level of character would be here… I wonder who they are to fight like this?” Those from Great Xia understood that only perverse geniuses from Great Xia could issue a challenge that would create this kind of commotion. It was a chance to broaden their horizons since fights between this level of genius were far and few in between.
