A timeline of ten days.
Lu Yun refined items for ten days on Immortal Sky Island before taking his leave and disappearing from the North Sea.
What heâd achieved in those ten days astounded the entire worldâhe refined thirteen thousand eight hundred and seventy-six treasures of all levels, with many onlookers standing witness!
They could scarcely believe it, even though theyâd seen it with their own eyes. Not even dao immortal grandmasters could replicate his tremendous feat.
Every single one of the items Lu Yun handled was a masterfully crafted âsupreme treasureâ. That didnât refer to the rank, but the quality. More importantly, he hadnât charged a single crystal for his work, doing it all for free.
His highest record was refining five hundred treasures at the same time, including a supreme-rank immortal sword, and completing them within an hour.
That was, of course, what the others saw. In truth, Lu Yun had spent a month in hell to refine those items.
The past ten days had immensely improved his mastery over treasure, talismans, formations, and pills, as well as earned him a tremendous amount of goodwill. There were now six fruits on the Sal Tree of Life and Death.
In order to ascend to the void realm, he needed seven. Otherwise, itâd take another three years for him to make the breakthrough, based on his current cultivation speed.
Three years werenât that long a period of time in the general span of things, but the Dao Flower wouldâve faded into the void by then and Lu Yun wouldnât gain its blessing upon ascending to the void realm at that point.
He didnât need to pioneer a void realm method. The Method of Life and Death was the foremost connate method in the world of immortals, and it was specifically tailored for his constitution. Naturally, it included a method for the void realm.
In other words, even if Lu Yun hadnât followed Lu Shenhouâs lingering obsession to the ancient tomb, he wouldâve forced a way into the void realm once heâd reached peak spirit realm.
Now, though, the Dao Flower had bloomed.
It was the most wondrous and magical thing in the world, and its powers conferred great benefits. Even the overlord of life and death coveted it greatly, as sadly, it wasnât yet under his jurisdiction.

âIs... is this really a good idea, senior brother Lu?â Beicang Qiong, his appearance changed once more, cast a pitiful look at Lu Yun.
âItâs a great idea! Senior brother Luâs hatched a perfect plan!â Lin Yan slapped Beicang Qiong on the shoulder before Lu Yun could answer. âHehe, blame yourself for being the first to ascend to the void realm among us. Who else is gonna be the bait but you?â
Beicang Qiong once again looked pleadingly at Lu Yun, who ignored him and animatedly discussed something with Qing Han.
âYounger sister Chen, your Tribulation Surrogate Pill....â
âUmph, senior brother Beicang, senior brother Lu is helping you! Youâve just ascended to the void realm and need a few life and death battles to temper yourself. Donât worry, he wonât let anything really happen to you!â Jing Dichen smiled sheepishly; it was obvious she had absolutely no intentions of giving him the pill.
âYou must be careful this time, Beicang!â Lu Yun warned seriously. âTake all the life-saving treasures you can with you. I can just manage to stop aether dao immortals, but Iâll have difficulty dealing with arcane dao immortals. Of course, all of them will value their lives greatly and probably wonât risk openly offending the Beicang Clan.
âAnd um, donât think about using the Tribulation Surrogate Pill. Itâs used to protect one against all kinds of tribulations, yes, but it wonât work when youâre seeking death yourself.â Lu Yun smacked his lips and finally admitted the reckless nature of his plan.
Color drained from Beicang Qiongâs face, leaving him as white as a sheet.
âDonât worry, Beicang, you still have us.â Bai Qi smiled merrily, patting his shoulder. âWeâre much wealthier than we were before.â
âDo you bunch dare show yourselves if the South Sea Gourmet comes as well?â Beicang Qiong responded broodingly.
Bai Qi shut his mouth and fell silent; not even Lu Yun was sure how to deal with the South Sea Gourmet. The demon was too unpredictable, and Lu Yun wasnât sure if the shapeshifting talismans could fool him.
âFine, fine,â Beicang Qiong said, sounding like he was marching to his death with his mind finally made up. âI believe senior brother Lu wonât send me to my death. But, well, I get the biggest portion of our spoils this time!â
âDonât worry,â Jing Dichen piped up. âEverything we get this time is yours. We wonât take anything from you!â
âAlright!â Beicang Qiong inhaled deeply. âSenior brother Lu has helped us greatly. Even if I break every bone in my body, Iâll help him catch that big snake!â
âHeh, thatâs what I call brotherhood!â Lu Yun smiled slightly. âIf we can catch the arcane dao immortal rimesnake, Iâm confident Iâll be able to nurture two more arcane dao immortals! Then itâll be easier for us to explore the skydragon tomb, and I can ambush the North Sea emperor again!â
Beicang Qiong and his friends nodded, excitement clear on their faces.

The North Sea was currently the epitome of utter disarray.
The palace had been looted clean, then Lu Yun had set up shop on Immortal Sky Island. And now, another piece of astounding news reverberated throughout the waters.
Void realm cultivator, Beicang Qiong, was setting up an arena on Sunset Island and accepting challenges from the young geniuses of the North Sea!
The news quickly reached all parts of the imperial sea.
Sunset Island was an important island under the North Sea courtâs rule, and was located four hundred kilometers away from the palace. There was not only an abundance of resources there, but also a large immortal crystal vein. However, the six troublemakers and Lu Yun had taken over the island and punted all of the monster spirits that were there into the ocean.
âThatâs too much! Thatâs simply too much!â Bing Xuan raged when he heard the news. âVoid realm? Void realm?! Thereâs no void realm cultivator or void realm method in our imperial court yet!â
An ugly smile split his face the next second. âThe Beicang Clan of Lazuli Major? Well, we can afford to make an enemy out of them....â
âSir, the ninety-third prince has arrived at Sunset Island to challenge Beicang Qiong!â Admiral Turtle rushed in with a panicked exclamation.
âWhat?!â Bing Xuanâs smile fell. âThat prince is the genius whoâs closest to the void realm. We mustnât allow anything to happen to him! We go!â
He quickly vanished.
