Chapter 2067 – A Page of Gold

The Tome of Life and Death had reached its final form, but that was what it should’ve been in the first place. Based on Lu Yun’s thoughts, the treasure should continue evolving after it became one with him.

The times continuously progressed, developed, and he was the vanguard of the era. The treasure’s current final form should not be the Tome of Life and Death’s terminal destination. At this moment, it was most similar to the first patch of existence that came to be.

However, the worlds themselves also continued to improve.

Lu Yun sat down cross-legged in the void and silently used formula dao to analyze his treasure. The Three Brushes of Reincarnation abruptly appeared by his side and traced something through the air.

The young man remained unaware of that development.

Their brushes flowed with blood-like ink that swiftly dyed the area a bright red. Lu Yun also entered a strange mental state.

……

Lu Yun meditated for three thousand years, not twitching a single muscle during this time. The past Sacred Radiance tribe had grown from a nation into a dynasty.

It was an immortal dynasty that conquered all nations.

Too many mortal tribes to count surrendered to them over the years. Sacred Radiance destroyed the altars of every tribe they conquered and demonstrated impressive immortal dao capabilities, forcing their new subjects to cultivate immortal dao.

Immortal dao began to take root and spread throughout the Three Thousand, thereby affecting its great daos.

However, the stifled great daos of the world weren’t due to the Dao King. That was a result of the demon gods devouring the realm’s strength. Thus, when immortal dao became part of the world’s great daos, it was also absorbed by the demon gods.

When immortal dao grew to the point of replacing the local great daos, that would turn the demon gods into terrifying demons of immortal dao.

Under Lu Yun’s leadership, immortal dao walked at the forefront of all great daos within nihil and existence. It was the most advanced dao of the times and the demon gods represented rotten decrepitude—they were unholy obstacles that prevented time from advancing.

The consequences would be unimaginable if they devoured immortal dao.

But the immortal dao of the Three Thousand was so weak that it was immediately assimilated by the realm’s great daos upon being incorporated. The demon gods couldn’t isolate it for specific attention, but the first of them to awaken—Feilu—understood the dao’s marvelous uses. He immediately waged war to seize control of it.

Although his primary body was still asleep, part of his will had awoken. He used his altar to communicate with the human tribes that’d yet to be conquered and also reached out to the vicious beasts outside of sanctuary. The two sides joined hands to raise the banner of war throughout sanctuary.

None of the five sacred palaces were spared. Since the Dao King could no longer send a replica to reinforce them, the only one they could rely on was Diexi.

And yet, she didn’t dare act rashly in the face of an overwhelming horde of beasts. She could only intimidate and awe them into staying out of sanctuary. If any crossed the boundary, she destroyed its entire bloodline in retaliation.

Being direct blood descendants of the demon gods, each species was incredibly precious. When eighteen went extinct, nearly all of the slumbering demon gods awoke ahead of time.

The vicious beasts weren’t intelligent, but part of Feilu’s will was present in them. Thus, the beasts changed tack and coordinated with the mortal tribes, sending empyrean and sacred level beasts to invade sanctuary.

Diexi would not take action so long as nihil level beasts remained out of the territory. If she destroyed the lesser vicious beasts as well, then Feilu would undoubtedly bring another part of his plans to bear.

Their target was the Sacred Radiance Immortal Dynasty, not the world of cultivators under sacred palace rule. With vicious beasts as mounts, human mortals charged through Sacred Radiance territory, trampling endless numbers of immortals to death.

They were met in turn by advanced weaponry that Dao Academy disciples transported from the world of immortals—weapons of war and fortress ships!

These days, the civilization of immortal dao thrived and prospered immensely. Thanks to formula dao, the World of Immortals was a cornucopia of supplemental dao treasures and immortal weapons. Modern iterations of the weapons of war could almost kill empyrean supremes with a single blast!

This was the realm’s greatest accomplishment over the past three thousand years.

Although formula dao traversed the chief worlds as the medium of supplemental dao, the chief worlds also bent to the knee to the World of Immortals. All resistance was vanquished by the latter’s armies.

The World of Immortals had set its sights on the primordial world of immortals at first and was gradually shifting its focus to that world. Now that Lu Yun knew the truth behind the primordial world of immortals, however, he was in much less of a hurry.

Strengthening himself and fighting the three hundred and sixty-five demon gods was the crucial matter at hand. Forging forward in the face of hardships and waging war was the fastest method.

After the World of Immortals conquered the chief worlds, it used the Infinite Deorc as a springboard to declare war on all other realms.

Contemporary immortals were peerless and unmatched. There was no sign of their historic faltering and cowardice to be found. Whether it was immortal dao itself or the numerous treasures derived from the calculations of formula dao, everything was the strongest of the age.

The Three Thousand was the latest battlefield. Lu Qing came striding through the realms and took command of Sacred Radiance, becoming the only liege lord of the dynasty. He was an empyrean supreme now and the foremost among the World of Immortals.

The Three Pure Ones also arrived. While they hadn’t recovered to their prime, they’d all set foot into the nothing and were hidden within Sacred Radiance, ready to deliver fatal blows should the opportunity present itself.

The three hundred and sixty-five demon gods were heroes of the nothing. They’d voluntarily sacrificed their bodies so that living beings might have other chances of survival. Within the nothing, it was the overseer of the Three Thousand who was the demon.

Powerhouses of the nihil populated the battlefield. They searched for Lu Yun, wanting to enact vengeance on their greatest traitor. Fuxi, Wahuang, Leize, and Huaxu were also ambushed in realms removed. Lu Yun’s betrayal certainly had something to do with them!

Perhaps some on the demon gods’ side knew the truth, but since they’d already thrown their lot in with the demon gods, there was no turning back. Perhaps that “some” included Corpse and Unrest.

……

Lu Yun sat cross-legged in the void as the bloody light around him gradually subsided. The Tome of Life and Death turned into a thin sheet of golden paper that melded into his body.

“A page of gold? The heck is this?” He blinked. “I thought it would evolve into a computer or smartphone, but… a piece of gold?”

Electronic books came to replace paper books nEarth as more people liked to read on their phones. Hence, Lu Yun thought the Tome of Life and Death would follow that line of progression.

“Found you,” an excited voice echoed at his ear while Lu Yun stared off into space. “Die!!”

It was a nihil powerhouse; he punched Lu Yun’s head the moment he appeared.
