Chapter 607.1: Dao-Establishing Tribulation (1/2)

Pure white petals blossomed gently in the sky and covered the entire world. In that instant, every single soul in the world of immortals looked up in wonder at the Dao Flower.

It was larger than the one that’d emerged with the appearance of the void realm. It was so large, in fact, that it sprawled across the entire sky and blotted out the sun. Its petals were engraved with profound runes that seemed to depict the deepest truths of the universe, laws that governed the existence of all living things.

Along with the blooming of the Dao Flower, Lu Yun’s voice also reached every corner of the world. The appearance of the flower was a surprise for him as well. He hadn’t imagined that he’d summon it in his quest to establish a sacred land.

What’s engraved on the Dao Flower are the runes of the immortal dao… which means the immortal dao now reigns supreme in this region!

Fresh insight surfaced in his mind. The runes of profound mystery on the Dao Flower belonged to the immortal dao itself!

“During the Primeval Era, the ancient divine court destroyed the immortal dao to establish their divine dao’s ascendency. It follows that the divines must have engraved their runes on a Dao Flower as well.”

Light dimmed and sparkled in Lu Yun’s eyes as the Tome of Life and Death steadily released a strange power inside him to help uncover the truth of what he saw.

This Dao Flower isn’t the Dao Flower’s physical self, it’s only a projection. A sacred land of immortal dao is something of utmost importance… There was a similar sacred land in the primordial world, one that stood on equal footing with the immortal court. However, no Dao Flowers manifested themselves when it was established.

For contemporary immortals, a Sword Lake and an inheritance tower were enough to establish Dusk Province as a sacred land. But for the inscrutable heavenly dao from above, they were nothing but fleeting dross.

Nevertheless, the will of the heavens had responded to his attempt to found a sacred land, and the Dao Flower’s projection had come to acknowledge and approve of his efforts. As long as he integrated the Dao Flower into himself and engraved the immortal dao’s runes into Dusk Province, the great dao would accept Dusk Province as a sacred land.

Light cascaded down from the Dao Flower and poured into Lu Yun.

“Damn it, we can’t let him succeed!” When the Dao Flower materialized, Primus Major’s ninth prince and Ge Yanxia stopped their fighting.

Ge Yanxia had reverted to her fur seal form some time ago. Resembling a tattered cloth bag after their clashes, she cut a sorry figure. Hence, the moment she saw the ninth prince stop his assault, she immediately turned into a streak of dark light and disappeared from sight.

“A sacred land recognized by the Dao Flower… Lu Yun’s standing in the world of immortals will be unshakable. Even establishing an ancient immortal court would be child’s play for him if he so wishes!

“Kill him!!” the ninth prince howled suddenly. The lord-grade ship’s main cannon lit up bright enough to blind the eye as he fueled it with ten billion premium immortal crystals.

Boom!

The cannon fired at the figure of Lu Yun standing in midair. Dimming mountains and rivers, extinguishing the light from the sun and the moon, the giant pillar of light pierced the heavens.

Gibbering with fear, the crowd stared, dumbfounded. They hadn’t expected the prince to be so decisive that he’d bombard Lu Yun almost as soon as the Dao Flower bloomed.

Hum!

Before anyone could react, light suddenly flared from the great city below. A hazy hue flashed through the air and dissolved the thick pillar of golden light almost as soon as it barrelled out of the cannon’s mouth.
