Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1712: A Blue Flower

“That exists in the lands of darkness??” Chu Xingran rubbed his eyes fiercely when he saw the docile black flower in Lu Yun’s hand and suddenly thought of something. “Wait, I know, she gave it to you!”

“Who gave it to me?” Lu Yun blinked.

“Whoever you came here for is the one who gave it to you. Keep it safe and don’t let anyone else see it.” Chu Xingran glanced at the scroll in Su Xiaoxiao’s hand.

It was inert.

“Mo Yi?” Lu Yun hummed with thought. “What’s the flower?”

“Don’t ask, you’ll know when the time is right,” Chu Xingran sighed. Somehow, Lu Yun read a trace of dejection on him.

“This flower…” Lu Yun carefully inspected the flower of black crystal before quietly putting it away. He keenly sensed a tiny change that seemed to have taken place in the world. Though it wasn’t a large change, it affected this world, the yang tomb, and also the yin tombs.

“There’s no need to look around, the world of sequence has just been completed. It’s matured into a real world of sequence,” Chu Xingran said.

“Do you mean… that flower…” Lu Yun replied subconsciously.

“Yes.” Chu Xingran nodded and said nothing else.

The atmosphere grew a bit awkward. Haidong Lin looked at Lu Yun, then at Chu Xingran, then walked over to Xingzi. “Hey lass, what are you going to do with all that poison?”

Just a single drop of corpse poison from a seventeenth level sequence expert was enough to turn an entire world into a zone of death. It could even completely dissolve the world.

“Kill people,” Xingzi responded without hesitation. “And of course, save people.” She ran off to collect more poison with Su Xiaoxiao.

The poison was uncommonly tame due to the presence of the Scroll of Shepherding Immortals. Instead of ravaging the intruders, it allowed Su Xiaoxiao and Xingzi to harvest whatever they wanted.

They stood up with satisfaction after a long while and handed the scroll to Lu Yun.

“Do we resurrect him first, or do we relieve him of his treasures first?” Lu Yun stroked his chin, seemingly asking Chu Xingran.

“We should loot him first. Ao Qin is known to be very miserly—he won’t give you his most valuable treasures even if you bring him back to life,” Chu Xingran responded smoothly. “The dragons are the most tightfisted out there.”

“You seem to dislike them a lot.” Lu Yun raised an eyebrow at the man.

“They’re the ones who facilitated my betrothal to the Dafeng miss. It’d be one thing if the miss was a charming little thing, but apparently she’s a heinous looking woman with fat arms and a bulging stomach. With how handsome and talented I am, how can I marry such a person?” Chu Xingran stroked his face lovingly.

“I definitely think I liked the old Curse King better,” Haidong Lin said quietly.

Lu Yun nodded solemnly. “Chu Xingran is not only narcissistic, but also shallow.”

“Would you love your two dao partners if they were ugly?” Chu Xingran harrumphed.

“Do you not understand, Chu Xingran?” Lu Yun raised an eyebrow at him. “For those of us at our cultivation level, we can change everything about our appearance. Anything on the path of cultivation is pleasing to the eye.

“If the Dafeng miss is as the rumors state, that just means she doesn’t want to marry you.”

Chu Xingran paused with shock, then said meaningfully, “That just means the dragon race is even abominable. I don’t want to marry her and she doesn’t want to marry me. The dragons are a completely odious people from start to finish.”

“Dragons are dragons, not people,” Haidong Lin muttered.

Chu Xingran whirled around to glare at him.

“Since you want to rob Ao Qin, let’s hurry up and get to it. I don’t see any treasures around here.”

Xingzi and Su Xiaoxiao had created an enormous boundary that kept all of the corpse poison outside. Although the Azure Dragon King was striving mightily from the scroll to ensure that the poison didn’t hurt Lu Yun, the young man speculated that the corpse poison and others were a protective mechanism. They existed to prevent anyone from touching Ao Qin’s body.

If Chu Xingran made moves on his treasures, the poison might stir to life again.

The man nodded; he was the one who’d raised the idea of raiding Ao Qin, so he would naturally be the one to do it. He opened his hand and permitted a tiny altar to drift upward from his palm.

Small ripples appeared over it and spread out in all directions.

Hummmm.

A clear reverberation sounded in the air as a tremendous halberd appeared out of nowhere and hovered over the altar. Chu Xingran threw it to the side without even looking at it.

“What a treasure, just look at this baby! It bears the presence of the great sea!” Haidong Lin picked it up and caressed it lovingly.

Outside the boundary, a black mist had risen at some point and rushed the group as a demonic shadow. It dispersed the moment it touched the fortifications.

“The dragon race established a world of sea dao sequence. Ao Qin’s weapon was born from that world and it is his personal treasure. He’ll reclaim it as soon as he’s alive again,” Chu Xingran said blandly, defusing Haidong Lin’s joy in revenge for his earlier words.

Haidong Lin’s expression froze and he imitated Chu Xingran, throwing the weapon away with disdain.

Hummmm.

A second reverberation accompanied the appearance of a cerulean blue pearl. Wreathed by water ripples, it also nurtured sea dao.

“Take this, it’s also from the world of sea dao sequence.” Chu Xingran tossed it to Haidong Lin.

“What is your treasure?” Lu Yun couldn’t help but ask when treasure after treasure appeared over the altar.

“Don’t you have a Treasurefall Coin? It’s formed from a fraction of this altar’s power.”

Lu Yun scratched his head; after he refined the coin, it’d vanished without a trace. This altar was very, very tempting, but he knew that it must be one of Chu Xingran’s most prized possessions. He would never give it to Lu Yun.

Bam!

A large explosion shook the air in front of Chu Xingran as his altar shattered. He didn’t even blink because a blue flower had appeared in front of him. It was crystalline in nature and looked very similar to Lu Yun’s black flower.

“Alright, this is it! This and the black flower you have will greatly increase the odds of you gaining the world of sequence.” Chu Xingran offered the flower to Lu Yun.

I wonder if the Hell Flowers are similar too?
