Chapter 1885: Protection Fee

Chapter 1842: Protection Fee

The Firmament Prison was hailed the Wound of the Void because it took the shape of an injury, and because of another reason. Meanwhile, Lu Yun’s first instinct had been to call it a giant dandelion.

It was also called the Wound of the Void because any spatial power, including the sequence of space, was torn to pieces here. They couldn’t form a complete system. Sequences of space turned black when they were ripped apart, becoming something similar to the enormous black dandelion in front of the ruins. But the faint ripple of blue from earlier meant that a complete sequence of space still existed here!

Lu Yun didn’t understand what he was seeing.

Cultivators around him were on high alert and slowly backed away from each other instead of congregating together. Even Liang Ruyue gave up targeting Lu Yun for the moment and withdrew to the side.

The black dandelion unfurled and the black rips that were as if its seeds disengaged from the main body. Carried by the pale blue ripple, they drifted in all directions.

Numbness gripped Lu Yun’s skull when he saw the scene. He, too, would be torn to pieces if he was caught in the spatial tears. The black tears wasn’t an ordinary spatial fissure, but one formed after the sequence of time was destroyed.

Even supremes would perish if the fissure connected with them.

The cultivators on the premises seemed to have anticipated this happening, hence why they were already far removed from the “dandelion seeds”.

Lu Yun thought for a moment and retracted all of the ripples of his energy. Using just his physical body to cross space, he caught up to Liang Ruyue.

“What, what do you want??” she stammered.

The initial stage of a spatial tide was the most dangerous. Any cultivator who picked a fight then was asking for death. Everyone had chosen their temporary refuge and stood quietly in their spot. It was a waiting game now; treasures would appear after this burst of spatial power dissipated.

Liang Ruyue was waiting as well—her spot was a perfect safety zone from the spatial tears. With the appearance of a complete sequence, the tears regained order and expanded along a predetermined path.

This was the logic that cultivators had identified and seized upon, and why so many were here at the risk of their lives. Great opportunity would be theirs after they successfully evaded the spatial rips!

……

Liang Ruyue’s pretty eyes were wide open as she stared fearfully at Lu Yun, deathly afraid that he would choose this moment to attack her.

“Didn’t you want to hire me to protect you? Give me the enigma stones, I’ll protect you!” Lu Yun grinned foolishly and forced his way into Liang Ruyue’s tiny zone of refuge.

She ground her teeth, itching to slap the oaf to death with a palm strike.

“Come on come on, hurry up. Or are you gonna force me back into my old trade?” Lu Yun’s voice grew in volume.

“Your old trade?” Liang Ruyue couldn’t keep up with the wild jumps of the man’s thoughts.

“Robbery!” He waved his meaty hands around and manifested an enormous pair of axes. “Either you hire me with enigma stones or I rob you right here, right now!”

“You want to start a fight during the spatial tide?” Liang Ruyue sneered. “Any ripple of energy from you will attract the spatial tears. You’ll die too then!”

She’d been stuck at thirty levels of sequence for an indeterminable period of time. There was no hope for her to advance further, sp Liang Ruyue was out of options and desperate. When she used her old trick of beguiling cultivators on Lu Yun, she wanted to absorb his great dao to supplement hers. If her core essence was made strong enough, she might be able to break through to thirty-one levels.

It was the hopeless strategy of a desperado. Though it tore her reputation to shreds, she didn’t care. In her eyes, she’d be better off dead if she couldn’t become a supreme.

“Wench, what do you think of my body?” Lu Yun rolled up his sleeves and struck a pose, flexing his bulging biceps.

“Are you… trying to seduce me?” Liang Ruyue’s eyes widened and she smiled coquettishly. “Even if you have certain thoughts about me, we need to wait until the spatial tide passes before we can do what we love doing…”

“No,” Lu Yun shook his head. “I mean I can beat you to death with pure muscle!”

Bam!

He punched through the void in front of them with pure physical strength. No ripples of immortal force or order traveled from him, so none of the terrifying spatial fissures honed in on the two.

“Ten million enigma stones as a protection fee or I’ll rob you!” Lu Yun roared, looking like a blockhead who valued wealth more than his life.

There was nothing else for it—the fourth realm’s enigma stone production was too poor. Although the Myriad Spirit and Firstspirit Supremes had given him four hundred and eighty million enigma stone veins, he didn’t dare do anything with them. He couldn’t afford to do anything with them.

They were meant to help turn Dragon Butterfly and Long Batian into enigma stone dragons—albeit over a prolonged process.

While the fourth realm did produce its own enigma stone veins now, those veins were seeds for the rest of the land. A light harvest could be undertaken, but the veins would dry up if they were harvested on a mass scale.

Thus, Lu Yun had to figure out how to earn enigma stones on his own. It was another one of his reasons for visiting the chief worlds. He’d asked Lu Feng for enigma stones, but his stingy brother refused. Ancestral veins of heaven and earth were one thing, but Lu Yun was on his own for enigma stones.

Back up against a wall, Lu Yun had no choice but to try this tactic.

Liang Ruyue was no kind soul and she’d killed countless cultivators. She could afford ten million stones.

The shaking girl fished out a storage bag and gave it to Lu Yun.

“So that, that’s my protection fee. You have to protect me now!” She wanted to cry, but couldn’t find the tears to. Why had she provoked this seemingly oafish, yet actually sinister fellow? He was actually a peerless genius to rob a twenty-eighth level cultivator when he himself was twenty-four!

The idea to devour his core essence for her own had occurred to her then, but it turned out that she’d rammed her head against a brick wall. Now? The brick wall had grown legs to throw itself at her.

“We’ll talk about that later.” Lu Yun cackled in another direction, sending chills down the back of the cultivator he laughed at.

Whoosh!

Lu Yun leapt through the air and arrived in front of his next victim. He reached out a hand with a foolish smile, “Protection fee, ten million enigma stones.”

“I, I don’t have that many…” The man looked around wildly and pulled a long face. “Will fewer do?”

“This is a robbery! Hand over all of your treasures!” Lu Yun switched tactics with a roar.

“Okay, okay! I’ll give you ten million stones!” the man burst into tears.
