YM778.TV Chapter 2089: Lu Yun’s Tomb
He’d yet to experience pain again after becoming a dead spirit, so while he howled with agony, it was tinged with a few hints of greed and satisfaction.
Pain!
His long lost senses of pain were returned to him. Although this was torment, it was a torment that he enjoyed.
He enjoyed the pain.
Lu Yun sighed as he watched the diminishing spirit. The guy really didn’t know anything, he was just a dead spirit.
A dead spirit sufficient to destroy the entire Divine Temple of Nothing.
The fire of reincarnation was the bane of all dead things. As opposed to saying they were slowly burned alive or refined, they were more sent through reincarnation to become another type of existence. For example, dregs of the nothing.
Even god-level ghostly entities were vaporized by the fire of reincarnation and turned to dust.
It was also a mark of Lu Yun’s current level of strength. If he was strong enough, he would be able to reincarnate the spirit into something different entirely, maybe even something he wanted to create. He’d be able to trace its past life and reverse death.
The process was similar to the Resurrection death art, but even more heaven defying. The death art could only be applied to those dead within the last seven days, but the fire of resurrection could revive even a pile of bone shards.
It’d been the same circumstances when Lu Yun recruited his Envoys of Samsara. The envoys were limited in number, but the fire of reincarnation could be endlessly used once it was perfected and Lu Yun’s strength reached the appropriate heights.
Such were the answers he came to when he refined the dead spirit and made calculations through formula dao.
“All things can be reincarnated.” Lu Yun’s comprehension grew deeper as he watched the dead spirit gradually turn into dregs, then shift from dregs to nothing.
“Then…” His heart spasmed painfully. “If I grow strong enough in the future, can I use the fire of reincarnation to reverse death? No, wait, can I use it to reverse the subjective and objective, turning the objective world into a subjective world?
“My subjective world? I could command all with a single thought, dismissing death and reincarnation, making it so that all things move according to my will?” Lu Yun’s breathing hitched and sped up.
The fire of reincarnation… the power of reincarnation!
It did indeed possess that ability, but he wasn’t strong enough yet to fully deploy reincarnation’s true strength. The ultimate peak of reincarnation was to reincarnate objectivity and subjectivity!
His heart pounded, but the revelations disappeared after reincarnation completely erased the dead spirit. It was as if his comprehension had been a dream. He remembered faint hints of it after waking up, but lost the feeling he’d grasped in his dream.
He fully remembered what he’d dreamed about, but completely forgot how he’d arrived at the conclusion and the spark of inspiration he’d followed to deduce his conclusions.
“The fire of reincarnation isn’t a fire without roots. The dead spirits are its fuel,” he took a deep breath. “Formula dao has to do with the fire of reincarnation as well. The more the latter blooms, the stronger formula dao is.
“If I want to deduce information that is more deeply buried, I need to find stronger dead spirits and use them to fuel the fire of reincarnation. The fire is an outward expression of reincarnation!”
Everything turned into flames when it burned. Thus, burning flames represented the process of reincarnation. Flames were the outward expression of the power of reincarnation.
Out of the five elements, fire was the most special. The other four all gave rise to fire. Even fire’s counter—water—could result in water fire or ice fire.
“The path I walk next is to incorporate all fires within creation and meld them into the fire of reincarnation…” Lu Yun spread out his hands and watched a colorless fire blossom in his hand.
“No, the fire of this nothing is insufficient to support the fire of reincarnation,” he murmured. “The fire of reincarnation is already the strongest beneath the heavens. It won’t evolve no matter how many other flames it absorbs. It will at most turn into a ladder that enables me to slowly sip at the fire of reincarnation.
“I won’t grow strong enough in this process, so I will ultimately end up being reincarnated by the flame. I must get stronger.” He could see the way to enhancing the fire of reincarnation, but he still didn’t know how he himself could grow stronger.
“Perhaps… I should set another dead spirit on fire and see if I can deduce a way to strengthen myself.” He looked at the ancient tomb in front of him. If there were more dead spirits inside, he could utilize formula dao after setting the alight and gain a few more clues.
Lu Yun had thought that all he needed to do was keep fighting to grow stronger, but it now looked like he’d been too naive.
Battles could improve strength, but would do nothing for his cultivation level. He was a sacred supreme, an incredibly strong sacred supreme.
What came after that? And after that? How was he supposed to reach it?
Lu Yun had no idea. The path of sacred supremes was unexplored frontier in the nothing. The cultivation system it contained was to follow the path of nothing and become a Nihil World Sovereign, then ultimately…
Poof’ing into nothing.
Just like the path of old in the fourth realm.
But in the fourth realm, someone had hewn a new path of accessing sequence to avoid becoming nothing. When this nothing was the apex of their world, what stronger sequence was here to access?
Any stronger dao was obscured by the barrier of nothing. If they could break it and guide the great dao of that reality into the nothing… that would strengthen the denizens to the point where they would be able to break the barrier of nothing.
It was a quandary. The indestructible barrier of nothing stood in front of them.
“Forget it, let’s take a look inside first and see if I can find other dead spirits.” Lu Yun didn’t come to any new answers after consulting formula dao. He deployed Boundless Step and entered the tomb, causing some changes to appear on the tombstone after he left.
The characters changed from an indecipherable language to that of the common language of the nothing. Blood seeped from the tombstone into the ground.
Lu Yun’s Tomb.
