Necropolis Immortal Chapter 1822: Six Paths

Chapter 1822: Six Paths

Lu Yun intended to publish the method to circ.u.mvent the Lifeline Talisman in the spirit paper, thereby completely rendering the talisman defunct. Lifeline Talismans didn’t just pertain to the multi-use one that Lu Feng had modified, but also the original single use version. Every faction among the chief worlds possessed the latter’s refinement method—that was its primary body of knowledge.

Destroying the Lifeline Talisman meant destroying these faction’s foundations and whittling away at their lives.

That was a heaven-shaking matter.

Lu Yun didn’t plan to do so just yet. It wasn’t time to—the battles between New Nihil Homeland and Nihil Homeland were reaching their peak. Factions of the chief worlds had followed suit in dividing themselves into different camps; the clashes had carried over to them.

This was the tiny crack of survival that the Land of Reincarnation wedged itself into.

No one would forget the land either, or that the method came from Lu Yun. Neither would they forget their ultimate goals in the Land of Reincarnation.

But the golden dragons weighed more heavily on their minds, that they might make a move behind everyone’s backs. This was an unresolvable issue that forced everyone to pause their schemes in the Land of Reincarnation.

……

“Are you going to start?” Moran Dongning snapped to attention when she heard Lu Yun’s words. She knew what he wanted to do.

“Mmhmm,” Lu Yun nodded. “The chief worlds are having a grand time fighting between themselves and have no effort to spare for me. This is my best chance.”

A h.e.l.l battles.h.i.+p glowed blackly in his hand.

“The four of us will hold off the G.o.d of Mount Tai for you!” Moran Dongning intoned.

Lu Yun was going to combine the six h.e.l.ls as one and create the one origin h.e.l.l. Once that h.e.l.l formed, Lu Yun’s h.e.l.l dao would have a true foundation and his cultivation would leap forward. This process would also incorporate the five Ruinas resting in the kingdom of h.e.l.l. Time was of the essence, so he couldn’t wait for Chu Xingran’s primary body to return with the core essence of the Firmament Prison from its ruins. He’d already calculated that if he wanted the prison, he would have to make a trip himself.

Chu Xingran’s replica appeared in front of him with a rueful smile. “I have to tender my apologies this time. My primary body and Xie Tianxun are trapped in the ruins. If it wasn’t for the several thousands of Resurrection Talismans that you gave me, I’d already be dead.”

“Has something happened?” Lu Yun frowned.

“Yun Yi’s arrived in the ruins,” the man breathed out.

Lu Yun tightened his fist, but didn’t say anything. Yun Yi was a personage far stronger than a supreme. He was a legendary character!

“You be careful.” After a long moment of silence, Lu Yun took out a thick deck of Resurrection Talismans and gave them to Chu Xingran.

The man accepted them with a wry chuckle. Resurrection Talismans were more useful than Lifeline Talismans when facing experts beyond supreme. Lifeline Talismans blocked a fatal blow, but if such a heavyweight didn’t kill their target with one strike, they would strike again, and again, and again… Powerhouses could even confine their targets and kill them millions of times until all of the Lifeline Talismans were exhausted.

Resurrection Talismans, however, waited until the bearer was dead. That pulled the wool over the expert’s eyes as it was a true death. Bearers could plant a seed of soul force at their desired spot of resurrection, thereby reviving at a different location.

If it was Lifeline Talismans that Chu Xingran and Xie Tianxun carried, they would’ve scattered upon the wind a long time ago.

Chu Xingran conveyed the new stack of talismans to his primary body through his nascent spirit. “You’ll probably have to make a trip to the Firmament Prison ruins in the future.”

“Mmhmm, I know,” Lu Yun nodded. “I’ll have to do it myself if I want to refine the Firmament Prison.”

“…I mean to save us,” Chu Xingran corrected helplessly.

Lu Yun: ……

……

The once secondary worlds were now a tremendous patch of empty s.p.a.ce. It was occupied by only three hundred and sixty-five Diexi’s—they formed the major cycle formation of zombie kings to support the void.

Everything else that’d been present, including the three hundred and sixty-five stars that the zombie kings possessed, had been absorbed by the World Star. It’d gone to the s.p.a.ce around Earth to manifest the Major Cycle Worlds that would support the fourth realm.

All of the fourth realm experts converged on this spot. Leize, f.u.xi, Huaxu, Wahuang, Hongjun, Pangu, and G.o.d stood in seven separate directions, safeguarding the void. The Dao King was as aloof as ever; he sat cross-legged over everyone and quietly looked down at the happenings below. A delicate feminine figure stood next to him—Mo Yi.

Apart from them, the Three Pure Ones also came. They were mythological beings in their prime, but they currently struggled with injuries that they’d suffered before entering the Land of Reincarnation. Even so, they still arrived to help.

Meng w.a.n.g, Yun Zhongzi, Emperor Xuan Yuan, Xuanyuan Xiaoyue, and the torch dragon were also present. They hovered protectively around Lu Yun.

Further out in the outside realm were the four s.p.a.cetime travelers.

Crafting the origin h.e.l.l was such a significant matter that Lu Yun had to request aid from everyone he knew. If it wasn’t for the ancestral G.o.ds fleeing for their lives, he would’ve asked them to come as well.

“I thought you’d leave with the Golden Dragon King and never come back.” Lu Yun looked meaningfully at the torch dragon.

“I came in contact with too much karma when I took shape. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have survived the sea of hadal h.e.l.lfire,” the torch dragon answered quietly.

In this loop, Lu Yun saved him with the Tome of Life and Death. In previous loops, he saved the dragon with the Imperial Seal. Thus, the torch dragon owed a karmic debt to Lu Yun in every cycle. He became humanity’s guardian purely to pay off this debt, and because he knew where the azure dragon ancestral G.o.d was. He’d even met with the ancestral G.o.d.

The torch dragon had lied to the Golden Dragon King.

“You need to be careful, I’ve stopped your two dao partners and son.” Mo Yi’s voice traveled into Lu Yun’s ears.

“Thanks.” Lu Yun bowed to Mo Yi and materialized a battle flag, tossing it to Tianqi. “If the dao partner of your past self shows up, beat her with this.” He quirked his eyebrow at his disciple.

“What past self? I severed that tie a long time ago,” Tianqi cackled. He placed Quietus back in his body and waved the flag around.

According to the G.o.d of Mount Tai’s original plan, Tianqi would disappear after he took the latter’s place in the war one hundred thousand years ago. Only the mountain G.o.d’s reincarnated body would remain, and that was indeed how it’d played out in the previous cycles.

In this loop, however, Tianqi cultivated Lu Yun’s Method of Life and Death. Thus, the war became an opportunity for Tianqi to destroy all of his ties with the G.o.d of Mount Tai instead.

“Good enough, let’s begin.” Lu Yun materialized the h.e.l.l battles.h.i.+p with a flip of his hand and slowly crushed it to pieces.

The six h.e.l.ls were tied together as a strand of six beads. Lu Yun’s nascent spirit began to appear as the Tome of Life and Death faded out of view in his consciousness. The six paths of his nascent spirit corresponded to the six h.e.l.ls!

The body, blood, soul, spirit, civilization, and order.
