Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1717: Already Dead

“No matter what, you already have the auras of three different Dao Flowers on you. The newly born world of sequence will come for you whether you like it or not!” Chu Xingran cackled evilly in a certain tone of schadenfreude. That had been his plan when he directed Lu Yun back to Ao Qin’s body. He knew there was a Dao Flower on Mount Xuanhuang, so he’d scrounged around for Ao Qin’s to give to Lu Yun.

However, he hadn’t anticipated that there’d be a third flower on Lu Yun—one that revealed itself when it sensed the Sea Dao Flower. There wasn’t much difference between two Dao Flowers or three, so Chu Xingran was suddenly bored by everything, like a bucket of ice-cold water had been dumped over his enthusiasm.

It was a similar feeling to someone painstakingly setting up a bit of mischief, but then realizing that the mischief was already taking place in front of them.

“Why would you let such a wonderful thing go to me?” Lu Yun looked suspiciously at Chu Xingran.

“Because this is the only way I’ll live!” He grit his teeth. “I’ll help you get that world of sequence and establish the sequence of immortal dao. That may very well stop the never-ending loops and turn the Discarded Land into a real world. If it becomes the same as the outside world, that will make up for everything I’ve done!

“No matter how many I’ve killed or how evil my crimes were, none of it will matter after I help you return this world to normal. I will truly free myself from karmic repercussions!”

“I understand,” Lu Yun nodded. “Regardless, I still thank you. I will pretend you’re dead after you leave.”

Although two Dao Flowers seemed the same as three to Chu Xingran, they represented a vastly different meaning to Lu Yun. He didn’t want to touch the one on Mount Xuanhuang since it’d become part of Qing Yu’s nascent spirit. She would be struck by disaster if anything happened to it.

Mo Yi likely had the same idea in mind when she delivered the Dark Dao Flower to him. She must’ve had a hand in the plots against the Spacetime King and Ao Qin as well, and likewise taken the Spacetime King’s vanished flower.

“What about the girl in my custody?” Lu Yun suddenly thought of Moran Dongning when they were about to set out for the world of sequence. “How about I give her to you when you leave? You can take her with you.”

“Who?” Ao Qin blinked. He didn’t know about Moran Dongning.

“The Spacetime King’s younger sister, Moran Dongning.” Chu Xingran shook his head. “There’s no need to do anything, she’s the Time Guard for this world and can leave whenever she wants. It’s not time for her to leave yet, so you won’t be able to send her out.”

“Moran Dongning?” Ao Qin furrowed his brow. “I feel like I saw her hit her brother on the head before I died…”

Lu Yun resisted the urge to roll his eyes. “Let’s go.”

Not even Ao Qin dared be too conspicuous when they entered the zone of slaughter. There were plenty of existences on par with him in the yang tomb and more who’d accessed eighteen levels of sequence than just the original emperor. It’d be disastrous if they weren’t careful and attracted those entities’ attention.

Additionally, Ao Qin had no desire to run into others of his race.

The three of them carefully picked their way through the void, navigating around berserk cultivators along the way. Lu Yun kept to his route instead of creating more Infernum. Brilliant radiance entered their line of sight after a while. Despite being the strongest of them all, Ao Qin couldn’t stare straight at the illumination either. It was the world of sequence.

The world barrier around it was drenched with blood, but the crimson splashes on it didn’t obstruct its brilliance from piercing through. Light from the barrier stabbed through the blood like rays from a blazing sun, furiously releasing its glare in all directions.

Even the shocking redness of blood couldn’t taint the iridescent dazzle.

“I sense the Imperial Seal.” Lu Yun whipped his head around and looked in a certain direction. A humanoid form outlined with blood raised a square seal over his head and madly defended himself against a ring of attackers.

“The original emperor didn’t take back the Imperial Seal? He’s left it with Di Yin.” Lu Yun frowned slightly and jumped up, landing in front of Di Yin and casually executing his enemies.

The group swiftly scattered when they saw reinforcements arrive. They didn’t seem to be human, but another race.

“Kill!

“Kill!”

“Kill!” Di Yin shrieked war cries even after he was rescued and charged Lu Yun.

The young man’s frown deepened and he knocked Di Yin unconscious with a backhanded slap. Lu Yun waved the Imperial Seal to him with a beckon and heaved a sigh of relief after closing his hands around it. This was his primary goal in the tomb. To think that it’d be right here as soon as he arrived at the banks of the world of sequence!

“Di Yin… is only a Nihil World Sovereign?” Lu Yun directed his attention for a clear look at the man. He’d thought that the original emperor would raise Di Yin’s cultivation level after calling the man to his side. Setting foot into sequence was a given, so it was a great surprise that Di Yin was still only a Nihil World Sovereign.

“That he is, but there’s a marvelous minor world inside his body that supplies him with strength. It gives him the power of ninth level sequence.” Ao Qin blinked. “Strange, ordinary Nihil World Sovereigns can’t imbue themselves with the power of a world even if they refine it…”

“It’s the original emperor. Though he didn’t raise Di Yin’s cultivation level or propel him into sequence, he created a world in Di Yin’s body. This world should be your outside world.” Lu Yun stored the Imperial Seal in the Tome of Life and Death and suppressed it. He was in no hurry to study it.

Taking out a talisman, he sent its effects into Di Yin, thereby awakening the man. He came to with no violence in his eyes.

“It’s you?! You’re here too?!” Di Yin jumped with shock when he saw Lu Yun. “Where’s my Imperial Seal?!” His next thoughts were of the treasure.

“In my safekeeping,” Lu Yun scoffed. “It wasn’t yours to begin with and it’s only trouble if it stays with you. Now, I ask, you answer, or I’ll kill you.”

The killing intent dawning in Lu Yun’s eyes made Di Yin tremble. It wasn’t until now that he clearly saw the situation for what it was.

“There’s no need, His Majesty is dead,” Di Yin sighed with great sorrow. “He was mobbed by eighteen experts of the same level and died two years ago.”
