Chapter 1951 – Yun Yi’s Plot
Lu Yun hadn’t considered Yun Yi with much respect before. Although she strove for the greater good, she sacrificed too many innocents along the way. Her sins screamed to the high heavens and Lu Yun felt that if he was a little bit stronger, he would be able to execute her through the Judgment of Life or Death.
But in this moment, he found her larger than life.
She used her body as a seal for the intersection of order and disorder? Death was far more preferable to torment like that!
Lu Yun finally understood why she was so crazed in her methods. She could naturally sacrifice other people when she sacrificed even herself. The fissure between order and disorder… she would be the first to die when war broke out again between the chief worlds and land of darkness.
The primordial heavenly emperor addressed Lu Yun when he saw the young man’s face rapidly flicker through different expressions. “I have escaped the golden bridge, so it is time to take my daughter’s place.”
“You cannot go,” Lu Yun frowned. “Although you’re an empyrean supreme, there are empyrean supremes in the darkness as well. They will move against you if you go, thus rendering all of Yun Yi’s arrangements during this time null and void!”
Lu Yun wasn’t certain if him drawing a face for the primordial heavenly emperor was part of Yun Yi’s plans. She knew that the Three Brushes of Reincarnation were on him, but didn’t know what the Tome of Life and Death was or what level the treasure was at.
Regardless, the movement of an empyrean supreme affected the orders of the chief worlds. The land of darkness had already infiltrated and walked among them, keeping the realm under constant surveillance. Once they discovered that the primordial heavenly emperor still existed… he would die again.
While Lu Yun didn’t know how the man had died in the first place, he could die a second, a third, a fourth time… until he was dead forever.
Weaknesses were inevitable after having died once.
The emperor quieted down. His face reverted back to an akasha ghost’s and flickered uncertainly.
“What you need to do now is stay here until you’ve recovered to your peak, or even exceed it.” Lu Yun paused before continuing, “Even if you are an empyrean supreme, you and your heavenly court have been eliminated by the times. The current you can’t keep up, and an obsolete empyrean supreme is useless to the chief worlds.”
The primordial heavenly emperor shook violently before nodding with resignation. The young man was correct, he and his court were behind the times. If he’d been strong enough, flawless enough, then his era would’ve never ended.
“Then let me cultivate your immortal dao,” the emperor said. “I’m an akasha ghost now and there must be immortal ghost dao.”
“Alright!” Lu Yun immediately agreed.
Immortal dao had reached maturity and the peak of its current condition. It wouldn’t expand explosively with the primordial heavenly emperor cultivating it and transferring his great dao to immortal dao, but its strength could conceal his presence. There might be many who didn’t recognize him even if he revealed himself later in the future.
“In my era… I also cultivated immortal dao,” he suddenly said.
“I know,” Lu Yun nodded. “Senior Hongjun’s immortal dao comes from your heavenly court, doesn’t it?”
The emperor of the primordial Hongmeng was this emperor’s disciple and had made his plans in the Land of Reincarnation. Though a myriad of daos had vied for prominence in the original Hongmeng, immortal dao remained the core great dao and pillar of the realm.
Lu Yun had thought that immortal dao was born from the Land of Reincarnation, but realized the truth after he learned of Meng Wang’s identity. At the same time, the immortal dao of modern times was stronger than the version that Meng Wang and Hongjun had brought with them.
It wasn’t strength from growth, but of the core essence—an adult wolf versus a dragonling.
“No,” the emperor shook his head. “It’s Hongjun’s immortal dao.”
Lu Yun’s eyebrows rose, but he didn’t inquire further. “Who’s buried in the Enneawyrm Coffinbearers?” he finally asked about the tomb of the empyrean supreme. It wasn’t the primordial heavenly emperor inside the tomb—the burial mound—but it was definitely an empyrean supreme.
The Enneawyrm Coffinbearers, Nine-Phoenix Casket, Enneaqilin Coffinbiers, and Ninefooted Turtle Cist always appeared together. The other three had to be around somewhere.
“I don’t know who he is either,” the emperor shook his head blankly. “He doesn’t come from the chief worlds and he’s not from the land of darkness. He might be from elsewhere in the forest and his appearance was a grave threat to us. Thus, all of us acted together to kill him and section him into the four coffins.
“The golden bridge is one of my contingency plans. I sensed that I would die sometime in the future, so I surreptitiously left traces of myself behind when we attacked that person. That I could retain this bridge and maintain this wisp of lingering will is all thanks to his presence.”
The emperor’s death must have occurred in a layout of absolute death. His enemies would wish to ensure that nothing of his body or will remained. Everything that spoke to his existence would’ve been erased.
But since he’d taken this additional action when they killed that person, he was able to salvage his corpse and will through the cover of that person’s will. Their enemy’s presence fooled his killers into thinking that his body had drifted apart on the wind.
“So… why has the tomb of the empyrean supreme opened now?” Lu Yun set the emperor’s affairs out of his mind.
Yun Yi had put three plans into action and set up a triple-layered plot to scheme against the peak grand supreme of the darkness. Nurturing Chu Xingran, having the realm monster resurrect the primordial heavenly court, and reviving the Disordered Empyrean Supreme had all stemmed from this tomb.
But if this tomb buried an existence that required numerous empyrean supremes to kill, then all of these preparations didn’t seem that relevant.

“I don’t know what she wants to do either,” the emperor was also at a loss. “But you need to be careful no matter what. It’s not just the Enneawyrm Coffinbearers that is present, the other three evil coffins are also inside the burial mound.
“I strongly suspect that the existence buried within has awoken.”
Lu Yun nodded. He was too weak as of now; a high supreme didn’t have the right to be involved in matters like these. He’d already reached the limits of his current condition after forcefully ascending himself to high supreme.
