Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1785: Spacetime Reincarnation

By now, the six hells were completely incorporated into the hell battleship, making it a moving hell that came under the true hell dao, as opposed to a microcosm of one. Rather than attempting to meld together as one, the six hells remained separate from each other in the vessel.

Apart from the two kings that the ghost ancestor had eaten, the endarkened and countless ghosts from the land of darkness were locked up in the Disordered Hell. There was also a magnificent sea of Hell Flowers in this hell. The final ending for the endarkened, ghost ancestor, and yin spirits was one of recollecting their souls in the flowers and becoming residents of the Disordered Hell.

“It’s time to take care of that corpse demon!” Lu Yun took a deep breath. The land of darkness was no more and the Dark Dao Flower was beginning to wither. It dissolved into motes of black light and dispersed into the void, sent off by a sigh of extreme pity from the Spacetime King.

The Disordered Hell had reached peak perfection and the limits of its current existence. Lu Yun’s cultivation advanced rapidly; he set foot into ninth level immortal dao sequence. Although that paled in comparison to the Demonic Vine next to him, he now counted among the elite powerhouses of the primary worlds in the Land of Reincarnation.

Hence, he could face the corpse demon with a bit more confidence.

……

A brilliant World Star hung in the void over Mount Buzhou, trailing curtains of cosmic radiance that were tinged golden by the Karmic Tree at the foot of the mountain. Tianqi sat beneath the tree, having arrived shortly after Lu Yun’s departure and keeping his post for five hundred years.

“Master!” He quickly stood up when he saw Lu Yun arrive.

“How are things?” the young man asked.

“I can sense the god of Mount Tai watching me, but I don’t know where he is.” Tianqi frowned slightly. He was the reincarnated form of the mountain god, but the god’s will still existed somewhere. The god had taken Tianqi’s place in the war a hundred thousand years ago, not only becoming involved in the tomb of the world of immortals, but also erasing everyone’s memories of the event.

The god of Mount Tai wanted to destroy the corpse zombie beneath Mount Buzhou as well—his interests perfectly aligned with Lu Yun in this regard. It was his unknown other plans that everyone was concerned with.

This time, Lu Yun potentially faced both corpse demon and the god of Mount Tai. All six hells were on him. The mountain god had once been the master of hell, so there was no reason for him to hold back.

……

“You’re here,” Hongjun breathed more easily to see Lu Yun come on time. Although two Mount Buzhous and a sky full of stars maintained the integrity of the seal, the corpse demon beneath it agitated at every second.

Five hundred years was the absolute limit of the mountain.

While everything gleamed with perfection on the surface, it’d decayed on the inside long ago. Mount Buzhou couldn’t withstand the slightest ill wind and was fragile beyond imagination.

Lu Yun was ready and so were Hongjun, Fuxi, Leize, Huaxu, and Wahuang. Even the Dao King and reincarnation inspector Jin Gushen were hidden off to the side, ready to reveal themselves if need be.

It could be said that apart from Mo Yi, all of the powerhouses in the Land of Reincarnation were present.

“No, the battlefield cannot be here!” Chu Xingran called out from the peak of Mount Buzhou. He’d been here all along. “I’ve asked the dragons for support. They can’t enter the primary worlds, so…”

“So we’ll go to the secondary worlds,” Ah Zhi smiled. “I’ve made some preparations during years as well and deployed Space Reincarnation, swapping the space here with the one around the major cycle formation of zombie kings in the secondary worlds.”

Lu Yun had passed down the two major combat arts of Space Reincarnation and Time Reincarnation. After melding them into formula dao and immortal dao, any student of the Formula Academy could train in them.

In the same vein, the shortfalls of one could be resolved by two. Countless cultivators had practiced the two combat arts over the past two thousand years, honing them to an infinite degree compared to when Lu Yun first created them.

Ah Zhi made use of the connection between the two night skies of Mount Buzhou to deploy Space Reincarnation and switch the two voids around. This was something that not even Lu Yun could’ve managed. She’d done so continuously over the past five hundred years, until she fully replaced the two with each other.

Even though Lu Yun was physically situated in the cosmos over Earth, he stood in the major cycle formation of the secondary worlds. Three hundred and sixty-five zombie kings sat quietly in space, having replaced the stars that should’ve twinkled in the emptiness.

Their major cycle formation shared the same origin as the formation on the World Star. That was how Ah Zhi was able to steal beams and pillars and replace them with rotten timbers, surreptitiously moving Mount Buzhou into the secondary worlds with none the wiser.

Ordinary spatial arts would’ve never managed the feat, but Lu Yun’s combat art was the reincarnation of space itself! He was stunned by Ah Zhi’s accomplishment.

“So we are in… the secondary worlds?” Hongjun, Pangu, and God looked at each other. Even those such as they couldn’t see through everything that Ah Zhi had done. One had to say, the development of dao methods in the Land of Reincarnation had outstripped their expectations.

Ah Zhi nodded.

Chu Xingran blinked and suddenly looked above him—a dot of pale azure light had appeared, heralding the arrival of a man with azure hair picking his way through the void.

“Foster father…? You’ve come yourself?” Chu Xingran fell into a daze when he got a closer look at the man.

“Mmhmm.” The man with azure hair was the king of the azure dragons in the chief worlds—the Azure Dragon King!

This was a powerhouse stronger than supremes, the very elite of the dragon race. He could make all of the chief worlds tremble at his name. Of course, it wasn’t his primary body here, just a replica of his will. Even so, he was far, far stronger than anyone could imagine.

Shock gripped Chu Xingran. He’d thought that the azure dragons would at most send a few supreme-level elders. Who would’ve thought that the king would come himself?!

“The corpse zombie resulting from that person’s body must be eliminated. It will be a disaster for the chief worlds otherwise. In addition, the Corpse Refiners are also poised in the shadows. They may be using each other, but whoever wins will spell doom for us all,” said the Azure Dragon King. “Despite coming here, I cannot take action myself. However, I can hold off the heavyweights of the Corpse Refiners for you.”

According to the rules that Qing Buyi had set, cultivators of the chief worlds were forbidden to enter the primary worlds of the Land of Reincarnation. The Azure Dragon King being in the secondary worlds wasn’t a violation of them.

Some Darklake supremes wanted to offer aid as well, but with the dragon king’s appearance, their presence would be superfluous. Thus, they backed away.

“Alright, enough of the pleasantries. Let us begin.” The Azure Dragon King was an aloof sort. After greeting Hongjun, Leize, and the others, he took to the air and sat down cross-legged in the void over Mount Buzhou.

He didn’t intend on entering the worlds. Protecting Mount Buzhou and fending off the Corpse Refiners who were about to arrive was the most he could do. The king didn’t want to be unduly involved with the karma relationships of the Land of Reincarnation either. Even if he cared deeply for certain people here, he would have to wait for them to leave the land first.

Lu Yun nodded, taking out the battle flag and star diagram. He threw the diagram into the flag.

Rumble—

A tremendous sound echoed from the battle flag—an expanse of unbounded cosmos seemed to cross space and time, breaking through the void from a distant world. It barrelled into the pitch black flag as countless terrifying existences stirred to life in the space around Earth.

They were the connate demon gods that’d fallen during the era of the primordial dao. They’d been asleep for hundreds of millions of years, finally awakening in this moment. During these periods, they’d slumbered in the mausoleum and were irradiated by the power of the stars. They’d become celestial bodies and generals of the stars.

The Dao King had recollected the power of the broken Major Cycle Worlds to fashion into the mausoleum, battle flag, and star diagram. They were now reassembled in Lu Yun’s hand.
