Chapter 2012 ā World Heart
āWhat do you mean by that?ā Lu Yun couldnāt make sense of Mo Yiās sudden delivery of rather confusing words.
āShe meansā¦ā It was the Dao King who answered. āIf the guy you saw dies one day, then heāll become⦠hmm, a realm like the enormous patch of existence that we live in. Order will spring forth within it, then heaven and earth, and eventually living beings.
āOur patch of existence is likely derived from the corpse of an unparalleled being. Itās similar to when the beings of the mortal worlds dieāmaggots and other microscopic beings appear in their bodies.ā
Anyone else might not understand the Dao King, but Lu Yun did because he was a modern Earthling. When studying the true nature of the universe, some scientists of Earth once proposed that the universe was a cell inside a massive organism, that there were hundreds of millions of such cells inside.
It was very possible that each of them was a universe.
Cultivators were likewise in the dark about the true nature of existence. There was order that formed heaven and earth, thereby giving rise to the conditions that were prerequisite for life to form. But beyond that?
Where did life come from? Where did all things originate from?
Not even empyrean supremes could explain it.
Mo Yi and Dao Kingās theory might seem ludicrously far-fetched and even blasphemous, but it was very truly possible that living beings were just maggots in the body of a fallen powerhouse. So then, where did life in the nothingness come from? What was nothing? It was a circular dead end, one that would never be resolved.
Lu Yun felt his head ache as he traveled with that train of thought. Formula dao couldnāt deduce something so enormous.
āStop thinking about it.ā Mo Yi stretched out a finger and gently waved it in front of Lu Yunās face, breaking his mental wild goose chase. āOf everything that exists, you just need to remember one thingācreation.ā
āRight, creation,ā Lu Yun chuckled.
The primordial world of immortals had come back to life because the power of sacrifice turned the Jade Record of Creation into pure creation. Infusing the world with a dense concentration of that energy called vitality forth again.
Whether it was life or a world, everything came down to creation.

Lu Yun caught sight of Jin Huo. Sheād anticipated his arrival and was already ready. Sheād known that the Land of Reincarnation couldnāt revive the tree god when they were discussing it in the tomb of the empyrean supreme. Even if he did come back to life, it wouldnāt be the tree god himself anymore.
āAre you really planning on going with me?ā Her slightly vacant eyes bore into Lu Yun.
āI made a promise and I intend to keep it.ā Lu Yun nodded. He could read Jin Huoās current moodāshe would either succeed, or go down trying.
There was nothing left in life for her anymore if the tree god couldnāt come back. Of course, she would create another peak grand supreme for the World of Immortals before she went to her death. She would keep her word as well.
āDonāt worry, you have me. I will resurrect the tree god.ā Lu Yun smiled faintly. āThe dark empyrean supreme has turned it into a trap to test me. Eh, Iāll just kill him too if it turns out to be too much trouble.ā
āItās not that simple,ā Huo Jin shook his head. āThe tree god must be resurrected at the World Heart.ā
āTheĀ World Heart?ā Lu Yun blinked. Heād never heard of the place before, but heād encounteredĀ aĀ world heart in the Dark World. Thatād been an item though, not a place. He didnāt think that the dark empyrean supreme would set up the trap in the Infinite Deorcāthat was plainly courting death.
Lu Yun had collected numerous denizens of other realms during his jaunt in the tomb, thereby gaining knowledge of many other realms, but heād never heard of a place called the World Heart. Not even his Infernum were familiar with it.
He hadnāt personally killed all of his new recruits. The ten Yama Kings had eliminated them as a matter of convenience when they blocked off the passage to the World of Immortals. Since these beings didnāt oppose the chief worlds, they didnāt possess the same unyielding resolution as the creatures of darkness.
The land of darkness and chief worlds had been at odds with each other for so long that they shared a death feud. That kind of bone-deep hatred was carved into their respective orders, so the endarkened wouldnāt bow their head to anyone from the chief worlds.
Even the Tome of Life and Death could only completely erase them and not recruit them. In the same vein, those of the chief worlds would never submit to the darkness. Order compelled them to do so.
The same didnāt apply to inhabitants from other realms. The Tome of Life and Death could command them as it would, unaffected by interference from order.
Lu Yun sent the skeletons heād brought back from the tomb of the empyrean supreme into the netherworld. The remains of human feasts and the new Infernum all arrived at the kingdom of hell in the World of Immortals.
āThe World Heart is a dead world and an incredibly dangerous place. Empyrean supremes have died over the course of exploring it before,ā Jin Huo explained. āItās the most mysterious and magical place in existence, surpassed by none other!
āThatās where the tree god can be resurrected! Any dead spirit comes back to life in the World Heart, even if their will of death has completely dispersed.ā Her eyes grew brighter as she spoke, as if she was already glimpsing the reborn tree god.
āSo⦠you mean⦠the trap was there all along? That the dark empyrean supreme didnāt need to create it?ā Lu Yun paused.
āYes,ā she nodded. āFallen empyrean supremes have come back to life in the World Heart and living ones have died there. Anything is possible.ā
āAlright then, letās go to the World Heart,ā Lu Yun sighed helplessly. Heād employed formula dao as Jin Huo spoke of this mysterious place, but didnāt calculate anything useful. All he could determine was that it would be a very, very risky trip for him.
But with risk came opportunity. Mo Yi and the Dao King had likely said what they said earlier because theyād guessed that he needed to go there. It was formed from the death of a powerhouse in the nothing. Could it have something to do with the one whoād transacted with Lu Yun?
He was suddenly very eager to visit the place.
āYouāre going to the World Heart?ā The world abruptly shifted around Lu Yun. It was empty and devoid of everything. A massive face appeared over his head and silently looked down on the young man.
The existence in the nothing had come to him at this time! He knew Lu Yun was going to the World Heart because heād been keeping an eye on the young man.
Of course heās keeping an eye on me, thereās no way heās letting me off that easily.Ā Lu Yun hadnāt thought that he could pull the wool over the otherās eyes either.
āThere is a sword in the World Heart. Retrieve it so you can ensure a possibility of seeing me in the future.ā
