Chapter 1970 – Power of Life and Death

The withered wood was dead.

Even though it’d been refined by the Tome of Life and Death, it still contained the power of death and boundless resentment. Only when it was revived and freshly imbued with life force would it be able to resurrect the perished peak grand supreme.

……

After handing the withered wood to the woman, Lu Yun left with his arms still wrapped around Chu Xun. He didn’t trust the woman yet. She was dead and desired to live. Although he’d given her hope, it was possible that her instincts would still drive her to harm Chu Xun in his absence.

Living beings possessed self control to restrain their base desires, but the dead didn’t. The dead took action strictly on impulse. Instinct first, thought second.

……

“Do I not need to die anymore?” Chu Xun asked weakly as she lifted her head.

“Your mom and dad never intended for you to die.” Lu Yun smiled as the little girl nodded mutely. He didn’t say anything else and she also understood that she couldn’t bear the one third of the order of life. There would be other things waiting for her later on.

Chu Xun might be only eight, but she was the daughter of two peak grand supremes. That put her in a position to know more than some ordinary supremes. For one, she’d understood why she’d felt compelled to come here when she saw the peak grand supreme. One third of the order of life could bloom in her, but it would never belong to her.

Lu Yun was now focused on breaking free of the tomb scheme; he would also bring Chu Xun out with him since they were traveling together. By now, he felt that Miao had purposefully left the little girl with her.

It was a bit confusing. Which Miao was that Miao?

……

Since Lu Yun had retrieved the portion of order from Chu Xun and given it to the peak grand supreme, she grew drowsy and tired. Drooping, she drifted off into a deep sleep in Lu Yun’s arms.

He wanted to send her into the internal world of the Tome of Life and Death for maximum safety, but… she was the daughter of peak grand supremes. They might have left other contingencies on her, so he didn’t dare take the risk.

He could reveal many things in front of her and even the power of reincarnation, but not the Tome of Life and Death. It was a treasure that would tempt even empyrean supremes, to say nothing of peak grand supremes.

Therefore, all he could do for now was continue to hold onto her. The thought of leaving her somewhere didn’t enter his mind. He wasn’t so unprincipled that he would throw away an eight year old girl and have her fend for herself in the tomb.

The woman’s appearance enabled Lu Yun’s formula dao to operate smoothly again and slightly disperse the fog in front of him. At least now he could pinpoint where the fruit of life was. He once more transformed into a particle of dust and sped forward with Chu Xun.

Utter mayhem reigned in the giant tree.

The death of a giant roused the ire of the other giants. They emerged from their hiding spots and furiously eliminated all outside beings inside the tree.

There were naturally more people inside the tree other than Lu Yun and Chu Xun. Although grand supremes waited outside to launch a counterattack against the giants, there were still plenty of grand supremes or high supremes inside the tree to attempt a dual pronged operation.

Even more people had their sights set on the fruit of life.

Rampaging giants located all of the outsiders in the tree and engaged in a heaven-shaking clash. Terrifying battle ripples reverberated through the void and the tree itself also shook violently.

The giants were initially able to suppress everything the cultivators could call upon—inner force, great dao, and order—with their strange power. They caught the cultivators off guard and inflicted heavy casualties. Numerous powerful grand supremes died to one blow from their clubs.

But cultivators were cultivators in the end. They practiced more than just strength—they exercised wisdom as well. Some quick adjustments enabled them to avoid exposing their weaknesses and resist the giants. After all, how would the grand supremes dare play into their enemy’s plot if they hadn’t gathered intelligence on the giants?

All sorts of primitive traps and mechanisms roared to life while grand supremes who specialized in tempering their bodies and the dao of force stepped to the fore. They used pure physical strength to withstand the giants.

The ripples of battle that Lu Yun sensed were traps in operation and salvos from the grand supremes that specialized in strength.

“We’re here!” He abruptly stopped in front of a hole roughly five hundred kilometers across. A green fruit the size of a fist floated in its center. Death and life overlaid each other on its surface—along with a hint of something else.

Lu Yun’s eyes widened slightly.

The power of life and death.

It was the pure power of life and death, the result of life and death intersecting with each other. The Tome of Life and Death originally emanated this power before reincarnation was restored to it.

The extremity of life could instantly resurrect a being whose soul had scattered upon the wind and return them to prime condition.

The extremity of death would instantly obliterate anyone who dared touch it, even peak grand supremes.

But the combination of both of them at the same time became the most marvelous existence. It would be reincarnation if taken another step forward. The cycle of life to death and then life again was reincarnation.

Everything in existence, be it living beings or great dao, could not avoid this cycle. Reincarnation itself followed the endless loops of birth and destruction.

“Indeed, this fruit is the core of the tree god. The tree god wanted to derive reincarnation and manifest its power,” Lu Yun swallowed hard. No wonder the fruit could seemingly revive the dead tree! But the tree god seemed to have failed as he’d derived only the power of life and death, not true reincarnation.

Despite the inadequacy, this was still a treasure that would send peak grand supremes into raptures. But to the giants, beings who didn’t cultivate, the fruit was a massive poisonous fruit. That was why they used it as bait to lure the grand supremes of the chief worlds and other areas.

They wouldn’t give it up without a fight, however. Although they weren’t cultivators, they were also no fools. A horrific trap was set in the form of the hole around the fruit. Anyone who tried to pluck the fruit before the giants activated the trap would die without question.

The Spectral Eye had already picked out ten pieces of death information.
