Chapter 2128: Dregs

There were no concepts of anything in the nothing.

But once a powerful existence appeared within it and was defined as “something”, then the nothing was affected by the “something” and generated the concepts of up, down, the four cardinal directions, and time.

In other words, direction and space came to be when there was a frame of reference to refer to. At the same time, this reference object needed to be strong enough so that its “something” wasn’t assimilated by the nothing.

That reference object could be a Supreme Immortal of Original Order of the new immortal dao, for example.

Lu Yun had exceeded that level and reached the higher immortal emperor realm. His external circulation of heaven and earth could craft a complete system of heaven and earth in the nothing. When he entered the nothing, he could create a world that was very similar to reality.

The immortal emperor realm did not possess such an ability. This ability came from the external circulation of heaven and earth that Lu Yun invented. This new cultivation technique was yet to fully meld with immortal dao.

Currently, they stood right in front of Bluemountain. His external circulation hummed around him as he halted beside it and silently assessed the city.NovelFull.com

“So you have indeed come.” The city lords of Blazemountain, Bluemountain, Shaman Mountain, and Miu Mountain appeared in unison. Apart from the Blazemountain city lord who’d barely reached the immortal emperor level, the rest were the equivalent of Supreme Immortals of Original Order.

“Did you kill my husband?” The Blazemountain city lord looked at Lu Yun with haunting killing intent.

Lu Yun nodded without a word.

“Who are you?? There is no such character as you in the nothing!” The Bluemountain city lord also regarded Lu Yun frostily. He wasn’t much stronger than the late Snowmountain city lord, so survival wasn’t likely if the powerhouse came for him.

There were plenty of cities in the nothing, but the person in front of them was absolutely not a city lord. He lacked the decrepit air of decay that all city lords possessed. City lords spent their days with ghost zombies, so while they weren’t a zombie themselves, they were tainted with the presence of one.

There were a dozen ghost zombie emperors hiding in the surroundings apart from the four city lords. They would charge forward with a single word from the Blazemountain city lord and rip Lu Yun to pieces.

“Me?” Lu Yun quirked his lips. “I’m the one who’s going to eliminate all of you. I’d planned to come for you one by one, but all of you are gathered here. How lovely, you’re saving me a lot of trouble.”

An arctic glare shone out of his eyes as he promptly struck, bringing a fist down on the Miu Mountain city lord closest to him.

His target was well aware of Lu Yun’s might and was well guarded. The city lord rapidly backed away the moment the young man made his move and zombie emperors winked into place, blocking Lu Yun’s path.

BOOM!

A loud explosion in the nothing created the concept of sound. Lu Yun obliterated three zombie emperors with one punch. These were much stronger than the ones of Snowmountain—they’d reached peak Supreme Immortal of Original Order and were only a hair weaker than immortal emperor. They could be called half-step immortal emperor.

“So strong!” the four city lords gasped in unison.

“This guy’s not a city lord, so he must be one of the dregs trying to restore the worlds,” Blazemountain huffed. “We’ll keep him here. Go find the other city lords, Bluemountain. Have them come here to eliminate him together!”

“Alright!” Bluemountain was the weakest among them and wouldn’t be of any help if he stayed here. He immediately shifted away and vanished in the nothing.

“The dregs trying to restore the worlds?” Lu Yun’s expression shifted at hearing their conversation. So he wasn’t alone in the nothing? There were other powerhouses like him, trying to resurrect the worlds? Were the Dao King, mistress, and God part of them?

Sadly, they were dead now. One had sent Lu Yun here, another sent Qing Yu here, and the last sent the little fox here.

Sorrow filled his mind when his thoughts traveled here. The descriptor of “dregs” stung too much, so his blows grew more cutting and merciless as a result.

Increasing numbers of ghost zombie emperors crowded around him. There were now several hundred, compared to the dozen at first. The four cities of the nothing were on full display and took up positions in the four cardinal directions, surrounding Lu Yun in their center.

The Blazemountain, Miu Mountain, and Shaman Mountain city lords were not to be underestimated either. The Blazemountain city lord was on par with Lu Yun. If it wasn’t for the young man possessing an external circulation of heaven and earth, shifting everything within his domain according to his will, he would’ve already been torn apart by the three.

It was also because of this external circulation that he firmly held the upper hand. The endless zombie emperors were just cannon fodder, here to simply prevent him from advancing.

“You are indeed one of the dregs seeking to revive the worlds!” came a furious yell as a scorching presence rapidly approached them.

An enormous fireball exploded next to Lu Yun, forcing the young man to hastily back up and evade the fireball’s range of effect.

An elder in red robes manifested in the nothing. He emanated the presence of fire origin energy that dyed the surroundings into a sea of flames.

“An external circulation of heaven and earth?” Lu Yun’s pupils contracted violently, but he quickly realized that it was something different, despite being very similar. He circulated the true power of heaven and earth, the core essence of a world. The elder in red circulated pure fire origin energy. His domain was a world of fire origin.

The elder had deviated into another path. Although he obtained tremendous power doing so, he would never reach the pinnacle of the subjective affecting the objective. The power of heaven and earth was the legitimate force that encompassed everything. A world of fire origin was just a world of fire energy. It could never form the power of a real world and was thus a rootless creation.

However, the elder in red was incredibly terrifying. Lu Yun had to back up an unknown distance before he evaded the explosion of fire origin energy.

“Inferno City Lord!” The others breathed out more easily to see the newcomer.

Lu Yun was so ferocious that they wanted to run. Thank goodness that the Inferno city lord was here! He was an absolute heavyweight in the nothing who was stronger than Blazemountain.

There were once dregs who tried to recover the worlds in the nothing, but Inferno had executed them all. He’d been the reinforcement that Bluemountain set off to locate.

“What an endless pool of dregs,” Inferno snarled at Lu Yun. “Are you still trying to recover the worlds? Do you really want the nothing to become a true nothing and obliterate all signs of life that ever existed?”
