Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 2207.2: Evidence of Possession

“Don’t worry,” Lu Tianling smiled faintly. “Yun’er seems to have gained a great personage for a master. The venerable one deployed the Dream Sutra to teach Yun’er in his dreams. Even I don’t know what he’s learned.”

“The Dream Sutra, disseminating dao through dreams?!” gasped Situ Wenxian, unconcealed shock in his eyes.

These things were no secret, Lu Tianling just hadn’t bothered to bring them up before. He did so now to prevent Situ Wenxian from reacting with surprise at every other development. The emperor talked too much.

BOOM!

A massive image of a forty-five meter long golden spear appeared in Ouyang Shengtian’s hands, shaking the ambient qi in the surroundings.

“Die, Lu Yun!” he roared and swung the spear around, stabbing down with unparalleled momentum. The actual spear entangling Lu Yun transformed into a streak of light at the same time and sank into the enormous image. Thus fortified, the gigantic spear’s might grew by thirty percent.

“You've only assimilated a lower rank dao weapon,” Lu Yun snorted and brandished Immortals Forbidden. A dense collection of sword light collected on his body, resulting in a crimson dragon sixty meters long forming over Dark City.

Hummm!

A powerful dragon croon echoed through the metropolis. Nine draconic shadows appeared in the air when it twisted its body, which then swiftly coalesced into real, tangible dragon forms.

The Eighteen Cerulean Sword Dragons and Nine Forms of the Cloud Dragon as deployed in conjunction!

Seven of the nine rushed toward the golden spear, whereas the remaining barrelled toward Ouyang Shengtian with sword qi beyond imagine.

“I knew you would use this move!” roared the Ouyang genius. He grasped in the void with both hands to manifest the image of a spear more than thirty meters long. It was much more tangible than the one earlier and thirty percent stronger.

It stabbed at Lu Yun’s two dragons as soon as it appeared, shooting with such domineering momentum that it was as if a pillar that stretched to the heavens.

Boom!!

Nine draconic shadows and two images of spears crashed into each other. The ensuing spirit ripples were so tremendous that they leveled countless structures within the city.

“No!” Ouyang Shengtian sensed a searing ripple of killing intent aim for the back of his head the moment his two spears went down with Lu Yun’s nine draconic shadows. He swung an arm behind him without second thought, manifesting another massive golden spear to block the cutting sword light.

“I’d thought all along that you practice an art of twin spears. To think that it’s one of three spears, and you’ve refined three lower dao rank weapons!” Lu Yun slowly shimmered into view behind the Ouyang genius.

Ouyang Shengtian’s back was drenched with sweat. Never did he imagine that his final trump card would save his life at a critical moment. He regarded Lu Yun with a frosty look; the three spears flashed through the air as his aura built.

The Lu young master snapped his fingers and collected drifting sword qi into one ray of crimson sword light. It landed in his hand as he faced off against his opponent.

“Lu Yun, this young master is not in the mood to fight you within the Dark City boundary today,” Ouyang Shengtian suddenly laughed and swept a look beneath him. Too many Hidden Dragons were gathering for his liking. A jade talisman appeared in his hand; he was gone after a flash.

“Situ Wenxian, Lu Tianling, my Ouyang Clan will reside in your Darklake Empire for temporary safekeeping. If anything happens to my family, I swear I will make rivers of blood run in Dark City!” Ouyang Shengtian’s voice rang through the capital.

“A Movement Talisman? Interesting.” Lu Yun didn’t prevent his opponent from leaving.

When Ouyang Shengtian reappeared, he was next to Ouyang Biegui.

“You’re back, good, good!” The elder was much relieved to see Ouyang Shengtian return. After Ouyang Batian and Ouyang Baiyi’s defeat, only Ouyang Shengtian, Ouyang Shenghe, Ouyang Shengmu, and Ouyang Shengxian were left of the clan’s direct bloodline. He didn’t care about the others.

“Lu Tianling, what do you have to say for yourself?” Envy flashed through Wang Song’s eyes as he looked at Lu Yun standing in the air. He gnashed his teeth and sneered up at Lu Tianling, “Darklake is a third rank empire, yet conceals soul projection cultivators. You do indeed harbor unsightly ambitions!”

“That’s certainly an overexaggerated accusation, Your Highness the Crown Prince,” Lu Yun interjected. “Darklake Empire was made independent from Dark Orchid a month ago. What does it have to do with you whether or not Darklake possesses soul projection cultivators?”

“Hmph!” Wang Song’s face darkened when he heard these words.

Rumble!!

Dark lightning split the sky as three figures in black appeared. Dressed in black battle armor, they wore upper dao rank blades on their backs and looked down impassively.

“Darklake Empire has seceded from Dark Orchid and Dark Orchid has no right to move against it for the next one hundred years. With what reason does it declare war this time?” majestically intoned the man in the middle. It was Terra Demon’s disciple—Helian Shan. He presented the image that he should, one of an impartial and just law enforcer.

Fourth rank empires did have the right to march on third rank empires and claim the subjugated as a vassal. But once a third rank empire won independence, its former superior nation could not take revenge within one hundred years.

Such was the ironclad law as established by the heavenly book.

“Milord enforcer!” Wang Song didn’t think much of the newcomers since he had a backer himself. As such, his tone wasn’t the most respectful. “Darklake disregards the dignity of Dark Orchid! They know that Ouyang Shengxiang is betrothed to me, but they still confine her and keep her hidden away. They show us not the slightest hint of respect!

“Does milord enforcer intend to stop me from seeking vengeance for my betrothed?”

“Well…” Helian Shan frowned tightly and sighed softly in Dark City’s direction.

“Hahahaha!!” Lu Yun roared with laughter. “Milord enforcer, please listen to both sides of the story!”

He waved three figures onto the city walls. Their cultivation levels weren’t high, but their identities made one quail. It was the missing Ouyang Shengmu, Ouyang Shenghe, and Ouyang Shengxiang!

“How is this possible?!” Waves of shock reared in Ouyang Shengtian’s heart. He’d quietly moved them out of the city three days ago, what were his siblings doing back here??

Ouyang Shengmu and Ouyang Shengxiang were standing dumbly on the city walls. Only Ouyang Shenghe pointed at Ouyang Shengtian and broke into loud curses.

“I don’t know where an old monster like you came from to take possession of my big brother’s body! You turned my family inside and out, and used Xiang’er as a pawn to start a war between two nations! You’re a fiend that’s completely mad!” Spittle flew from Ouyang Shenghe’s mouth as he swore at Ouyang Shengtian beneath the city walls.

“Shenghe, what’s wrong?” Ouyang Shengtian’s concern wasn’t a facade. The four siblings had grown up as a tight knit quartet and he cared very much about his brothers and sister. To hear his younger brother talk like this was unbearable, even though he’d consumed the qi of an wandering immortal and possessed the cultivation level of soul separation. “I am your big brother, I haven’t been possessed by anyone. I’m still Ouyang Shengtian!”

“Shengtian, someone’s controlling Shenghe. So Lu Tianling is still the strongest of us in the end…” Ouyang Biegui heaved a sigh. The other three siblings marked the total failure of the plan as soon as they appeared.

“You are Ouyang Shengtian?” Ouyang Shenghe sneered. He waved a jade talisman into his hand and crushed it, projecting a massive image into the sky. Two bedraggled young men sat facing each other. Their conversation also filtered out of the image.

……

“How much have you adjusted to your body?”

“About eighty percent, I’m almost there. Ouyang Shengtian’s foundations aren’t bad. I have a chance of becoming a real immortal after taking possession of him. I’ve also found some interesting things in his memories. The past Ouyang Shengtian didn’t know what they were, but the current one does.”

Everyone within the city heard the conversation.
