Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1682: Execution

The Kun Sovereign King, a seventh level sequence expert and supreme genius who viewed the Luminaries as his enemy, was dead from one slash?

No one expected this turn of events, least of all the Poison King or Curse King. In killing the Kun Sovereign King, Jian Bu’er had set himself against the entire fourth realm!

Thanks to their extreme notoriety, the Luminaries were public enemy number one in the Boundless Planes. They were the direct demise of innumerable daos and the blood could not be washed from their hands.

Most of the factions in the realm had concentrated their forces at Mount Astronomia to erase the Luminaries once and for all. The Kun Sovereign King occupied the moral high ground and stood on the side of righteous good—whoever made an enemy out of him now was to make enemies out of the entire fourth realm.

No one fathomed that he would unceremoniously die from one stroke right after his noble declaration!

In the Boundless Planes, strength was far more important than morality.

……

“Jian Bu’er!” The Curse King had to show himself at this point in time. He collected the Kun Sovereign King’s body with a wave of his hand and roared, “Are you intent on being an enemy of the entire fourth realm?!”

“Heh.” Jian Bu’er swept a frosty look over him. “An enemy of the entire fourth realm? What, you rotten fish and stinking shrimp represent everyone in the Boundless Planes? Haven’t the Luminaries always been at odds with you?”

He roared with laughter. “Come on then, Curse King, let’s have another grand ole fight. If you win this time, I’ll gift you another mouthful of spit. How about it?”

The Curse King’s face was darker than the gloom around the Ghost Bat King. Jian Bu’er maintained fine control over his power at peak ninth level sequence. His terrifying aura pressed down on everyone present like a towering mountain range.

Who was being enemies with who?

Set themselves against a ninth level sequence expert? Were they crazy?

If it wasn’t for the rumors that the Sky Sovereign King was long dead, and that Moon and Sun were also close to death, no one would’ve dared come to Mount Astronomia!

Plus, they were only surrounding the mountain so they could watch the show. They wouldn’t actually attack Mount Astronomia. Oh no, not them!

Not unless someone else led the charge…

Well, the person who’d led the charge—the Kun Sovereign King—had just been killed with one blow from an eleventh level sequence expert.

“Or do you guys want to be enemies with me?” Jian Bu’er waved his sword with a loud roar of laughter. “I, Jian Bu’er, beholder of sword dao in Fairylands, do hereby represent my world today and form an alliance with the Luminaries. Of course, the Star Sect is also allied with the Luminaries, so we also partner with them.

“Here we stand, defending the organization. I’ll take on whoever wants to attack!”

The void trembled. Fairylands?!

What kind of place was that? The name had never been heard before, but a single powerhouse from that world was an eleventh level sequence expert. This kind of heavyweight was a first in the Boundless Planes!

If it could produce one Jian Bu’er, then it could produce many more similar powerhouses. Just Jian Bu’er alone was the apex of existence in the fourth realm. Who dared make enemies out of the Luminaries? They didn’t have a death wish!

No one was blind to what’d just happened to the Kun Sovereign King!

The Curse King’s expression was forebodingly ominous. He was also constrained in the fourth realm and couldn’t call upon his full strength. This particular replica of his was only a seventh level sequence expert and couldn’t even fight Yueyi, to say nothing of Jian Bu’er.

After a pause, the Poison King and Curse King smiled at the same time when they looked at each other.

“Jian Bu’er, so what if we decide to be enemies with you and the Luminaries? Take a look at Mount Astronomia,” the Curse King sneered expressionlessly.

Jian Bu’er halted and whipped his head around. The Ghost Bat King had revealed itself at some point and wrapped its enormous bat wings around the mountain. The brilliant sun, moon, and star were so dim that they were on the verge of going out.

A terrifying darkness was upon them once more.

“The Ghost Bat King has made its move. There is no hope of survival for the Luminaries and Lu Yun. Let’s go,” the Poison King laughed heartily and vanished on the spot. He had no desire to be cut down by a single stroke from Jian Bu’er.

The Curse King left as well.

“What is that thing?!” Pandemonium engulfed the foot of the mountain as the darkness swept around Mount Astronomia and attacked the lands of order in the fourth realm.

It expanded so quickly that those who were closest to the mountain were devoured whole by the gloom. Others further away were pursued by hordes of ghost bats.

Out of the hundreds of millions of souls on Mount Astronomia and hundreds of millions of experts, only a few million were left after the continued barrage from the ghost bats. As the bats rushed out, the foot of the mountains was instantly dyed red with blood. Even sequence experts scrambled to meet the unexpected assault.

“Now do you know what the Luminaries have been doing on Mount Astronomia?” Jian Bu’er declared coldly as he watched carnage play out in the void. “If they hadn’t held down the fort, the vast Boundless Planes would’ve been overrun by darkness and devoured by these ghost bats long ago.”

While his voice wasn’t loud, it echoed in the depths of everyone’s heart. Whether one was busy fleeing for their lives or fighting back, they could all hear him clearly. It felt like a bucket of ice cold water had been dumped over their heads and everyone shuddered with dread.

“The previous Curse King, Poison King, and Kun Sovereign King of Kunpeng Ocean were all manifestations of creatures from the darkness. They came to the known expanses solely to destroy the Luminaries and break the mountain’s defenses.

“It looks like they’ve succeeded.” Jian Bu’er didn’t plan on taking action anymore. His home—the World of Swords—was constantly besieged by the darkness. He knew full well what this kind of invasion meant.

The known expanses of the Boundless Planes were the safest place in the entire fourth realm. Their denizens didn’t know about the land of darkness and didn’t have to face constant raids that could end their homes at any time.

The worlds outside the known expanses were broken. Their rules were incomplete, their orders dilapidated, and they were formed by the fragments of Major Cycle Worlds that were supposed to support the fourth realm. Their denizens constantly struggled against the darkness and faced death at every second.

Life, as it was known in the known expanses, was too easy and comfortable. It was time for that to come to an end.

When Jian Bu’er entered the world of sequence in fine fettle, he’d possessed the proud ambitions of building a world of sword dao sequence. He’d ultimately failed because everything had been a lie, but now he wanted to build his own faction in the known expanses so he could counterattack the darkness!

Such were the same thoughts of the dao beholders in Fairylands.

……

Mount Astronomia crumbled inch by inch.

The Sun Sovereign King, Yueyi, and Ah Zhi regarded the situation solemnly. They were overshadowed by the bat king’s wings and their sun, moon, and star becoming ever darker.

Rumble!!

A loud explosion rang out as the void shattered. Two beams of light blasted out and rammed into the Ghost Bat King.
