Chapter 1880: Firmament Prison?

No one would possibly fathom that the Golden Dragon King's father, Ao Hong, would turn into one of Lu Yun's. In the same vein, the destruction of the Dragon City was no trifling matter. Ao Hong was surely dead as a result in the comprehension of the general public. No one would imagine either that the one behind the devastation would be the dragons' own nine clawed golden dragon.

……

The World of Soul Dominion was incredibly vast. All that Lu Yun had seen thus far was just the tip of the iceberg. At forty-four levels of sea dao sequence, Ao Hong immediately set foot into forty-five levels once his name was written into the Tome of Life and Death.

This cultivation level would have been impossible in the past as forty-four levels was the limit of the dragon's potential. But once the power of reincarnation from the treasure surged into his body, it instantly elevated him further.

For someone like Ao Hong, however, forty-five levels was still insufficient to forge a dao palace.

……

The land enveloped by darkness in front of them was the land of trial in this world. Boundless darkness blinded the eye and surprise shot through Lu Yun's gaze when he stood by its perimeter.

"This is the land of trial?" He turned around to look at Ao Hong and Nightmare.

"It was before, but no longer," Ao Hong nodded. "It can only be described as the ruins for the land of trial now."

"This is… the Firmament Prison," Lu Yun clarified through grit teeth. "What's it doing here?!"

"What??" Ao Hong and Nightmare gaped.

"The darkness in front of us is the true form of the Firmament Prison—the Firmament Army Pagoda." Lu Yun wouldn't be mistaken about this as he'd visited the pagoda before and was very familiar with its strength.

He even saw a person in front of him—the Firmament King Soldier.

The king soldier stood in front of the pagoda and looked silently at Lu Yun. After the young man fell for Yun Yi's plot and brought the man back to hell in lieu of the king soldier, the latter had waited here ever since.

"The… the Firmament Prison is also in the World of Soul Dominion?" Nightmare looked blankly at Ao Hong, who looked equally baffled back at the ghost.

"So Chu Xingran is here?" Lu Yun asked Ao Hong.

"Yes… Chu Xingran said that there's a valuable treasure in the land of trial and took all of the elites with him. …eh?" Ao Hong blinked. "Wait, there is no treasure. He moved all of the elites because we discovered that someone schemed against the city."

Ao Hong had overseen Dragon City for countless months and didn't know how long he'd dwelled for in this world. Perhaps he wasn't the strongest in the city, but he was its absolute lord. If necessary, he could die for the dragons at the drop of a hat.

That was why he'd remained as bait after their core strength departed. If he also left, then their attacker would chase after Chu Xingran. Only when he stayed could they fool those moving against them.

A treasure emerging in the land of trial was a front; Lu Yun arriving at this time was outside of Ao Hong's expectations. It was even more surprising that their enemy would close in as soon as the young man arrived.

That was why he'd spared no effort to ensure the young man made it out before the city fell. It was the furthest thing from Ao Hong's mind that Lu Yun would be able to revive him.

"There is indeed a treasure here, you just don't know about it," Lu Yun said with a look of great concentration. "If that wasn't the case, you'd never hoodwink that person."

That person… the nine clawed golden dragon!

Ao Hong knew who it was that had Dragon City in their sights, and it was precisely because the nine clawed golden dragon sought their doom that there was nothing that could be done. Their only option was to palm off a substitute for the real thing and shift all of their elites to relative safety.

Those who'd died were dragon warriors willing to die for their faction.

"That person would guess at the truth if you sent people to a place where there was no treasure," Lu Yun murmured.

Chu Xingran had brought the dragon race here knowing that the land of trial was the Firmament Prison. With his familiarity of the place, he could easily hide and conceal the remaining core of the faction.

"Chu Xingran told me that the treasure that's appeared is immensely useful to the azure dragon ancestral god and Leize. If we can obtain it…" Ao Hong mumbled.

"Chu Xingran spoke the truth. That person is a divine spirit, so he can identify truth from falsehood," Lu Yun responded. "C'mon, let's go inside!"

He set foot into the land of darkness. Everything that had happened to him in this world was too surreal to comprehend. Whether it was Nightmare's appearance or the fall of Dragon City, Lu Yun felt like he was swimming through the clouds. He had no idea how he'd done everything or why Nightmare had been so easy to suppress.

Perhaps the ghost had been putting on an act and allowing herself to be suppressed, but all of it was meaningless the second he wrote her name into the Tome of Life and Death.

"Something that's useful to both the azure dragon ancestral god and Leize… I see." Lu Yun immediately understood what was at hand when he set foot into the Firmament Prison. Whatever was useful to those two august figures was also useful to the nine clawed golden dragon!

The azure dragon ancestral god was a divine spirit, as was the nine clawed golden dragon!

Formula dao resumed normal operations when they entered the prison and the veil that'd obscured Lu Yun's eyes lifted. Keen light danced through his eyes as he swiftly deduced everything at stake.

"The nine clawed golden dragon let Chu Xingran come here because he wants to borrow the man's hand to find the treasure," Lu Yun took a deep breath. "But how did the dragon manage to come to this world in the first place? Or is his core essence not a draconic divine spirit, but something else entirely?"

He was beginning to understand that the Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme hadn't sent him here simply to temper himself or protect others. This place was the heart of the grand supreme's motivation.

"You're finally here!" A rather urgent voice traveled into Lu Yun's ears. The king soldier that should've left with him before appeared in front of the young man.

"Okay, follow me. I'll take you out of here as soon as we conclude matters here. I'll also help you become a true living being." Although Yun Yi had taken the king soldier's place, what'd occurred after that hadn't been a secret from the real king soldier.

"How is this place connected to the World of Soul Dominion?" Lu Yun asked.

"The Firmament Prison has always been here," came the surprising response. "It is one of the passages for cultivators beyond sequence to enter this world."
