Chapter 1865: A Supreme That Eats Grass

"Myriad Spirit… Supreme?" the younger sister burst out laughing. "Supreme? Hahahahahaha!"

"What? Has his reputation soured in the outside world?" Lu Yun's eyelid twitched.

"The Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme's replica in the chief worlds is indeed a mere supreme," the older sister said expressionlessly. "Since you are the grand supreme's disciple, we will not trouble you further. Get out of here."

"Hang on, what Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme? What's a grand supreme? Is that a level above regular supreme?" He knew there was more to Myriad Spirit than met the eye! How would a mere supreme, an adult of the chief worlds, dare secretly help Lu Yun so much and even create twenty thousand years of space for him?

"High supreme comes after supreme, and grand supreme after that!" the younger sister giggled. "Too many supremes exist to be counted, but there are very few who can make their way to grand supremes. But eh, you're just twenty-four levels. No wonder the grand supreme hasn't told you anything.

"Big sis, we've been exposed. That old ghost is probably watching from a distance. It'll be hard to try again." She turned to her older sister, her tones full of regret.

"Wait a second!" Lu Yun called out when the duo prepared to leave. "Did you say old ghost? I'm great at taking down ghosts!"

He suddenly felt that embracing his weaknesses seemed to be the best course of action. Running into two cultivators of thirty-nine levels right after entering the World of Soul Dominion and seeing them easily rip through his Argent Snow Domain… well, he had no choice but to bow to his deficiencies.

Admitting to one's shortcomings was a good thing in a place like this. Putting on a strong front would only lead to death.

He needed a thigh, a thick thigh. Otherwise, he'd be dead before he even knew what happened. Just look at how he and Chu Xingran had been ambushed the second they arrived in this world!

Lu Yun still didn't know who'd attacked them or where the three arrows even came from. Chu Xingran's cultivation was stronger than Lu Yun's since he'd set foot into twenty-eight levels of sequence. He was superior both in terms of perception and strength, which was why he'd discovered the arrows and not Lu Yun.

"You?" the younger girl looked skeptically at Lu Yun. "My big sis broke your weird boundary with one move. That old ghost is stronger than even my sis, so what can you do to it?"

"Age cannot be used to determine depth of knowledge and even the strong can be a student! Everyone has their own set of merits and failings!" Lu Yun reeled off a spiel of Earth philosophy. "I specialize in excavating the tombs of the chief worlds and I'm the best at catching ghosts and whatnot!

"Since I ruined your setup, I must make you whole again!" A righteous expression crept over his face. "Otherwise, this karmic debt would be difficult to pay off."

"Only your last sentence is true, isn't it?" The older girl curled her lip and glanced in a certain direction. It was empty. Her expression changed drastically when she looked back and saw a talisman in Lu Yun's hand.

"This is a Principal Nineheavens Talisman and it's optimized for ghostly entities!" Lu Yun handed the talisman to the older girl. "The last sentence isn't the point either, the point is that I'm newly come to this world and was lucky enough to bump into a thirty-ninth level senior cultivator. Oh my heavens, this level of cultivator would be as rare and elite as the feathers of phoenixes and horns of qilins in the chief worlds."

"Feathers of phoenixes and horns of qilins?" the younger girl grumbled. "Yes, those beasts are rare and your analogy is apt. But in the World of Soul Dominion, most candidates are senior cultivators. A little guy of twenty-four levels like you is another feather and horn."

Lu Yun coughed awkwardly.

"Your talisman can indeed suppress ghostly entities, but just one isn't enough. All it'll do to the old ghost is tickle it." The older girl's eyes grew bright the more she studied the talisman.

"This is chaos dirt. It will conceal the ripples of your life force if you rub it over yourself." The younger sister handed some gray dirt to Lu Yun.

"Chaos dirt?" Eyes wide, Lu Yun stared at the dirt. It was truly dirt from… the chaos, the chaos that he knew. He immediately understood something when he saw the dirt. The Hongmeng and chaos weren't unique to the Land of Reincarnation. They existed elsewhere in the chief worlds. At the very least, the chaos existed in the World of Soul Dominion.

The two sisters were very slowly accepting Lu Yun because there was none of that dirt on him. Walking around sans dirt in this world was to court death. And since he was twenty-four levels, he was absolutely no threat to them.

"Where does this chaos dirt come from?" he asked dumbly.

"It doesn't have to be chaos dirt, regular dirt from the ground or anything that will conceal your vitality will do. We choose chaos dirt." The older sister returned the talisman to Lu Yun; she didn't want to explain the dirt's origins.

He carefully smeared the dirt over himself and discovered some impurities within that didn't come from his chaos. Lu Yun smacked himself on the forehead. His guard had relaxed too much after becoming accustomed to an easy time of things in the fourth realm. He should've been much more alert when exploring a new world.

Although he concealed his life force with certain methods, they were plainly unsuited for this world. He was no different from a walking lantern in the darkness to the two sisters. Now that he covered himself with chaos dirt, he turned into the same grayish, dusty state as them. It was impossible to make out his original appearance.

"You're one of ours now that you have chaos dirt on you!" The younger sister smacked Lu Yun's shoulder with a grin. "But if your talisman can't take care of that old ghost, my sis and I will take back the handful of dirt!

"Zhu Lingyan, is it? Let me introduce us. I am Moran Linglong and my big sis is Moran Linlang."

"Moran… you're from the Moran Clan?!" Lu Yun suddenly felt that he understood why Myriad Spirit had dumped him and Chu Xingran here. The supreme probably knew that the sisters were here too. Moran Linglong and Moran Linlang were willing to accept him mostly due to the fact that he was the supreme's disciple.

From this, Lu Yun could be certain that the Myriad Spirit Supreme was deeply connected to the Morans. He didn't ask about the specifics. As a mere sequence cultivator, he didn't have the right to involve himself in the affairs of the greats.

"Alright, come with me." Moran Linlang couldn't be bothered with answering that idiotic question. Would they dare claim Moran as their surname if they weren't from the clan? The three of them vanished with a wave of her hand.

"What was that talisman?? It can suppress my strength." A ghastly white woman appeared where Lu Yun had stood and looked around with shock and trepidation. "Although it's weak, it will be highly disadvantageous for me now that the Moran sisters have it!"

……

"So the talisman really does work on that old ghost!" Moran Linglong clapped her hands with glee as she watched the images on a water curtain.

The three of them were in a tiny cave with a water curtain projected on one of the walls. The ghost's image and murmuring were all relayed back to them.

"Don't fall for it," Lu Yun waved his hand. "Ghosts are most skilled at lying and tricking people. Even if the talisman really can control it, it has no need to appear and tell us. It can easily discover the tiny restriction for the water curtain in its surroundings.

"I discovered it a while ago and brought out the Principal Nineheavens Talisman to fool it. But it's going along with our trap to trick us instead!" He frowned slightly. Nothing about the ghost was a secret to his Spectral Eye.

"Huh?" Moran Linglong looked blankly at Zhu Lingyan while her older sister glanced sharply at him. The young man who seemed harmless and a bit of a fool had set up a trap with neither of them realizing?

"The talisman that is actually useful against the ghost is this one." Lu Yun took out two talismans carved from enigma stone—the Three Purities Talisman. The Principal Nineheavens Talisman was a creation from the Grand Pure One and effective against ordinary ghosts. But when up against the ghost outside, that talisman wouldn't even tickle it.

Later on, the Three Pure Ones jointly employed formula dao to create the Three Purities Talisman. It was another talisman effective against ghostly entities, one so mighty that only one was needed to exorcise a supreme-level ghost. Of course, since Lu Yun was yet to reach their level, the talisman he created could only restrain supreme-level ghosts, not kill them.

Still, that was an impressive achievement in itself. The female ghost outside wasn't a supreme either—it was a fortieth level sequence ghost cultivator.

Great daos abounded in the chief worlds. If there were sects like the Corpse Refiners who walked the way of dead bodies, then there were naturally sects that focused on ghosts. The female ghost was a strong disciple from a ghost cultivation sect.
