Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1986 – The Intersection of the Realms

Only Wei Lie was left of the Divine Feathers. Whether he was hailed as their forefather or the last of their kind, or viewed in terms of his incomparably mysterious current self, the Divine Feathers didn’t register as a threat to empyrean supremes so long as they weren’t a race.

But Pangu was different, he had all of humanity behind him.

He’d accepted a fate of being quartered and buried here because of them, and humanity had voluntarily been sealed into the ancient burial mound for him.

Yet Wei Lie was telling the primordial heavenly emperor that Pangu had never been buried here? It was a bone-chilling revelation.

“You don’t need to put on such a fake front,” Wei Lie suddenly snorted with laughter. “You’ve run circles around the idiots of the Infinite Deorc, Grand Spirit Pivot, and Select Cosmos. Of the empyrean supremes in the chief worlds, you are the only one I fear.”

The emperor shrugged.

“Enough of this, my daughter still suffers between the boundary of order and disorder. I’m going to save her.” He vanished without a trace.

Wei Lie looked in the direction where Lu Yun had disappeared instead.

“The primordial heavenly emperor…” he murmured. “Only he dares call himself the heavenly emperor out of all the empyrean supremes out there. Heavenly emperor… heaven and earth.”

He shook his head with a gentle laugh. “But what does that have to do with me? The mistress’ follower has left with my true spirit, so it won’t harm a hair on my head if this place is blown to high heaven.

“You located a dao form body for me only because you wanted to borrow my hand for your purposes. How would I possibly fall for that? It is time I left as well.”

……

Lu Yun didn’t discover that the primordial heavenly emperor and Wei Lie were in the tomb of the shamanic ancestor. He’d followed the black vortex into another world. This was the true tomb, or rather, the core of the entire tomb of the empyrean supreme.

Tightening her grip around Chu Xun, Jin Huo followed close behind him without hesitation.

They arrived at an enormous battlefield in which giant humans and outsiders fought each other with abandon. It was an uncanny area that compelled the various races to battle in their true forms. No one was able to maintain their dao form; they could only move around in their original forms.

Even Jin Huo underwent certain changes when she reached the place. A faint luster appeared over her skin, but she maintained her humanoid shape. She was most likely the manifestation of a connate divine spirit.

While she was a dao form, she was different from the dao forms of the human and Divine Feather races. She had to fully take shape as a human being before she could cultivate.

Meanwhile, Chu Xun looked the same in her arms and surprisingly didn’t change at all.

“All of them are here!” Lu Yun sensed the auras of the ten Yama Kings. They fought in the innermost depths of this world. The tomb of the shamanic ancestor was simply an entrance for this world!

“What is this place?” Jin Huo sucked in a sharp breath. She’d been completely unaware that such a place existed in the burial mound!

“Master!” Yuying gasped when she sensed Lu Yun’s arrival and immediately died to an enemy, then was promptly reborn in the Tome of Life and Death.

“Come here!” he commanded with a frown.

Instead of flinging herself into battle again, she presented herself to Lu Yun and knelt to the ground. While she wasn’t a peak grand supreme, she wasn’t far from that level. Without her presence, the other Yama Kings also died and convened in front of their master when they revived.

Jin Huo was tongue-tied at the sudden appearance of ten stunning and elegant ladies. She had no idea how to react.

“What are all of you fighting?” Lu Yun asked.

“In response to master, creatures from the darkness!” Yuying responded. Being the first Yama King, that made her the strongest out of all of them. “Creatures under the dark empyrean supreme’s banner wish to occupy the tomb of the empyrean supreme and use it as a springboard to devour the chief worlds,” she explained slowly. “Once the chief worlds fall, the same fate will not be far behind for the World of Immortals. There is something in our home that the dark empyrean supreme wants, so we must beat back the darkness here!”

“Legend has it that this burial mound stands at the intersection of the realms. It belongs to no realm—it can be considered part of the chief worlds, the Infinite Deorc, the Grand Spirit Pivot, etc.” A myth suddenly came to Jin Huo’s mind.

“Legends further state that this was once an incomparably glorious major world that reigned superior to all worlds. Being the intersection of all realms, it was the most lofty existence in the hearts of all living beings. That world eventually perished and was transformed into an ancient burial mound to lay the world’s final preeminence to rest.”

Jin Huo considered their surroundings with an unwelcome expression. “I thought… it was all just stories, but if this place really can reach the Infinite Deorc…”

“There is definitely more to the primordial heavenly emperor than meets the eye. I was nearly completely taken in by his passive act. If the dark empyrean supreme dares enter the chief worlds through here, he’ll have to set foot onto the golden bridge,” Lu Yun suddenly realized.

The golden bridge of heaven and earth was passage for chief world denizens into the giant burial mound. It was also a method of egress. Chief world inhabitants would be fine on it, but if the endarkened dare set foot on the bridge…

Damn.

It was another massive trap, one aimed at the land of darkness.

“But master!” Yuying protested with remaining worry. “There’s more than one passageway out of the burial mound. I saw the dark empyrean supreme travel through a spatial fissure with my own eyes!”

If it wasn’t for her seeing that fissure, she wouldn’t have led the other Yama Kings to attack the creatures from the darkness.

“The dark empyrean supreme has his eyes set on the World of Immortals because of the Master of Darkness. I am here now.” Lu Yun waved her off. “There are many more secrets in this burial mound, so all of you should leave now and continue exploring it. We may come across other unexpected gains!”

“…understood.” The Yama Kings would never defy his orders, so they left through the vortex behind them.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "FreeWebNovel.com".

“Tsk tsk tsk, I wasn’t wrong to think that you’re a smart person.” The dark empyrean supreme’s projection appeared in front of Lu Yun. He was a handsome man with long black hair offsetting pale skin. His eyes and lips were also black.

It gave Lu Yun a disorienting feeling to find that the one in front of him wasn’t the projection of an empyrean supreme from the darkness, but Chu Xingran!

Or rather, this was how Chu Xingran had first appeared when he was still in the guise of the Curse King. Their expressions and bearing also shared some similarity.

“I can also tell from your emotions that you do intend to return the Master of Darkness to me!” the empyrean supreme said with surprise.

“I am so inclined to do that, but… you have to take it from me! It’s yours if you can take it from me, it’s still mine if not!” Lu Yun thumped Heavenfall against the ground as the laughing and crying mask leered with violence.
