Chapter 1009: Jade Record of Creation (2/2)

However, the last one had been arranged for long ago. When Lu Yun first met Hongjun, the creator had been holding the rough form of the jade record. It was just a rough lump then and wasn’t yet the treasure of the immortal dao. It only took shape after tempering from both the primitive great dao and human dao, making it what it was today.

With its appearance now, it absorbed the other treasures into itself and fully embodied the proper order. It appeared for a split second, then vanished without a trace afterward.

Though countless experts across the nine majors, ten lands, four immortal seas, and four great oceans had witnessed its existence, this was something that they could only look upon and not covet.

……

Wuzhiqi was dead, no trace of him remained.

A temporary tranquility seemed to grip the world of immortals once more. This time, it was only on the surface as political currents ebbed and flowed in the shadows.

Untold multitudes of powerhouses had appeared after a decade. Most of them weren’t great emperors or grand pure realm, which left plenty of them as supreme pure or jade pure immortals.

Power corrupted, and when corruption set in, so did ambition. Ambition stoked ever growing desires, which inevitably gave rise to clashes. As minor scuffles and struggles were magnified, conflict began to develop across the land.

Though there were still endless numbers of yin spirits outside the world of immortals, breakthrough victories had been established in the lower realms. Most of the yin spirits there had been swept clean, so in the eyes of many, there wasn’t much to the yin spirits outside the world of immortals either.

Thankfully, the land was a cornucopia of resources. Although the world of immortals now was stronger than its primordial self, contemporary immortals numbered less than one percent of what’d existed in the Primordial Era. Given the abundance of resources, immortals could always find whatever it was they desired. Thus, the conflicts in the world weren’t too severe.

Most people now butted heads over the ancient tombs in the world.

Though the world of immortals was the strongest it’d ever been, with combat arts and cultivation methods flourishing to an uncommon degree, the contents of the tombs were the distilled essence of a million years. Stemming from the Primordial Era, many of them were still extremely helpful to immortals now.

Though modern society thrived and prospered, it possessed only eighty thousand years of history. True development had occurred only within the sixty years after the Dao Academy’s establishment.

While Qing Yu and Lu Yun had deployed formula dao to the utmost during this time to theorize cultivation methods and combat arts, they were still unable to rival a million years of history.

At the same time, the academy also wished to excavate more tombs. The various items from the tombs contained wisdom from the Primordial Era, a foundation for which one could derive application suitable for modern times.

These days, a new question occupied most of Lu Yun and Qing Yu’s attention. Where did these ancient tombs come from and who’d buried all of the immortals fallen in that great war?

The burial layout over the world of immortals had been perfectly disrupted by the tombs that forested the world. Lu Yun had originally thought this to be Tianqi’s handiwork since his disciple was very close to the creator realm. However, while he possessed the requisite power and knowledge, he didn’t have the strength to erase the memories of everything in the multiverse at the same time.
