Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1759: Mending Heaven and Earth

The outsiders paused when they saw the sight, then grinned with delight. So everything stemmed from Lu Yun. Everything would be resolved if he died!

The world of sequence and connate demon fetus were close at hand!

“Kill!” someone howled and released combat arts at Lu Yun.

Expressionless, Lu Yun raised a hand and summoned numerous dragons from the ground. They tore the combat arts apart and dove the outsiders, ripping through the forcefield that’d held off the destructive power for a while.

……

“Do you see that?” Chu Xingran pointed at the formidable Lu Yun raging beneath the hell battleship and said to Jian Bu’er, “The one from the original Hongmeng did the same thing. He released the Dragonquake Scripture at full strength and summoned all of the dragons in the third realm. He vaporized the powerhouses of your secondary worlds with a single punch, not even leaving bone fragments of them.

“Tsk tsk tsk…” he sighed with emotion and seemed to relive the impressive sight of an age-old battle.

Jian Bu’er remained humbly quiet. He’d already entered Myriadsea World when the war that ended the original Hongmeng broke out, so he didn’t know any of this. It wasn’t until later generations arrived at Myriadsea that they learned their home had shattered.

“But that fellow died a horrible death,” Chu Xingran turned somber. “He collected all of the Hongmeng’s dragons in one spot and made the rest of the realm incredibly fragile. Without the support of the dragons, the Hongmeng couldn’t support the boundless energy of the worlds and collapsed.

“Resentment from innumerable living beings collected as retribution and concentrated into flames of retribution. They consumed him for seven thousand years before he finally died. Traces of his existence still remain, but no one will ever be able to pull him back from death.”

“Do you mean this will happen to Lu Yun too?” Jian Bu’er didn’t fully understand what Chu Xingran was talking about.

“Pfft, he cultivates hell dao and this entire hell will eventually be his. What retribution and karma is there?” Chu Xingran shook his head. “He’s just recreating the final moments of the Hongmeng. If my guess is right, he’s attempting to understand why that person did what he did all those years ago. Although we outsiders infiltrated the Hongmeng, we never wanted to destroy it!”

Inside the Disordered Hell, Moran Dongning solemnly watched events play out outside. This was a rare mood for her to be in.

“So you have indeed noticed some things, but this isn’t the proper time yet!” she murmured. “You’ve obtained The Kinship of Heaven and Earth and can help this land’s denizens create a complete world…”

Startled, Xie Tianxun looked at Moran Dongning. Although he didn’t know what was taking place outside, he could make some educated guesses.

“The Kinship of Heaven and Earth? The Dragonquake Scripture…?”

“Don’t say anything more.” Moran Dongning looked sharply at him and released a terrifying aura that slammed Xie Tianxun to the ground.

He was more shocked by her surge of power—it exceeded sequence!

“Who, who are you?!” He was the greatest genius of the outside realm, but he was as weak as an ant in front of her!

Moran Dongning flicked a sidelong glance at him and quietly retracted her strength.

“I am Moran Dongning, someone who doesn’t want to die.” Although she spoke to Xie Tianxun, her eyes were locked on the scene outside.

……

“Ai, why go to all this trouble?” The nameless man in white inside the Tome of Life and Death was also watching Lu Yun’s actions. Fully deploying the Dragonquake Scripture meant simulating why the great personage had destroyed the Hongmeng all those years ago!

Just as Chu Xingran had said, the outsiders had never thought of destroying the third realm. They couldn’t even occupy it if they wanted to. Not only had there been the original emperor and the divine tree, but there were also several existences on par with the emperor—Hongjun, Pangu, God, and the Three Pure Ones.

But in that last battle, they seemed to have let that person do whatever he wanted, which resulted in unquenchable retribution.

“Has he discovered something?” The demon of immortal dao was in the form of an adorable lapdog and laid on the ground next to the man. One could tell from his question that he also knew why that mysterious personage had done what he had back in the day.

“Formula dao is unmatched, which means Lu Yun can calculate a few hints of the truth. He probably wants to verify his theory.” A tiny ripple traveled between his fingers as the man in white made some small hand seals; it was the operation of formula dao. Although he’d resided in the Abyssal Tomb, he’d also learned formula dao!

“Chu Xingran has been helping all this time despite the cessation of his karmic ties with the land. He was the ringleader of the outside forces in that year and likely hasn’t shaken off the specter of destroying the Hongmeng. This time, he probably wants to assuage his guilty conscience.” The man stroked his chin. “What a strange kid.”

“Indeed,” the demon nodded. “Lu Yun verifying his theory is one thing and doesn’t really hurt anything, but Chu Xingran wants to clear his mental hurdles just so that his heart, mind, and soul are in harmony with each other.

“But at the heart of things, it was the Curse King that did everything, not him. He only inherited the Curse King’s destiny.” The demon was still baffled.

“No, he isn’t so easily absolved just because he was fulfilling someone else’s role. Inheriting the destiny of this land’s denizens means not only inheriting their fortuitous opportunities, but their karmic ties as well. Since he became the Curse King, everything the Curse King ever did was assigned to him too.” The man suddenly smiled. “Ah, look at Lu Yun’s expression. He’s confirmed what he was speculating.”

The demon followed the man’s gaze and nodded.

“The Dragonquake Scripture was meant to repair the worlds of this Land of Reincarnation. That one wanted to transform himself into a dragon to mend heaven and earth, but ultimately failed,” the demon murmured.

“It isn’t that easy to mend heaven and earth. Wahuang refined the stone of five colors with her great dao, but only repaired the tangible heaven and earth. Its great dao and the worlds formed by order remained flawed,” the man sighed. “Chu Xingran’s also been shouldering the blame for others. They’ve been using his curses to eliminate the flawed worlds, constantly disqualifying them until finally, this iteration arrived.

“The orders of these worlds are the closest to complete ever since the worlds broke in the Land of Reincarnation.”

He meant the first realm nurtured within the original Hongmeng. The original Hongmeng had been so strong that it’d completely suppressed the worlds. Hence, the great one had sacrificed himself to destroy the Hongmeng in the final battle so the first realm could be free and whole.

Unfortunately, he’d only partially succeeded. The Hongmeng had indeed broken, but so had the worlds.

etvolare's Thoughts

So the great one wanted to crack the egg and let the chick out, but accidentally smashed a boulder on top of the whole thing.

And did everyone get the reason for the loops? Some folks meant to do good and kept repeating everything, trying to reroll for the most complete worlds they could get. It happens to be the iteration we're reading about. I assume everyone else from the outside realm is on a different team and they just want loot.
