Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1995 – Accident

Wind, thunder, fire, and water were the most destructive out of the origin elements. Apart from those four, there were also the yin, yang, metal, earth, and wood elements. The nine combined made for the nine fundamental origin powers.

The nine fundamentals were products of the order of heaven and earth. They were the basic building blocks of all things. Their interactions and integration with each other gave rise to everything else.

That was what was meant by “origin”, the foundation of the order of ethos.

Of them, wind, thunder, fire, and water were the most devastating. Yin and yang were too enigmatic to get a clear hold of. Metal, earth, and wood usually operated more as facilitators and mediums.

Lord Ingress had used the power of metal to fashion vessels for the strength of wind, thunder, fire, and water, crafting the Swords of Immortal Condemnation, Immortal Entrapment, Immortal Slaughter, and Immortal End. The formation they deployed in tandem was hailed as the foremost arrangement of slaughter.

Lu Yun was making use of the power within the chaos dirt. Earth was imbued with great virtue and could shoulder great burdens. It could manifest the ground that all beings walked on.

The boundless power of chaos dirt erupted, churning toward them and crashing into the chaos dirt puppets setting up the formation. They were refined out of chaos dirt to begin with, so when faced with a mudslide of their own material, they were crushed back to their original components and returned to being formless dirt.

However, they completed the great formation of wind, thunder, fire, and water before they were taken out of commission. It whirred to motion, ravaging the surroundings with attacks that resembled combat arts. Even though the puppets were gone, the formation was just as strong. In fact, it was more tumultuous than before!

The formation was etched into the chaos dirt and supported by the ground. Three hundred and sixty-five puppets were just catalysts for the formation.

“You can manipulate chaos dirt??” Shu Yan blinked before recovering his composure. He was very confident in the formation as it was from the primordial world of immortals. It’d killed innumerable empyrean supremes who’d dared rebel against the primordial immortal court once upon a time.

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

Although the formation was a far cry from its past glory, it was still something that modern day cultivators couldn’t break.

So what if the young man could control chaos dirt? The formation crushed even chaos dirt when it was active.

Lu Yun continued to remain calm and collected. He wasn’t worried since Daoist Ingress’ palace of sword light could stand for a while longer.

Meanwhile, his companion breathed a slight sigh of relief to see the young man call upon the dirt. Daoist Ingress split out a tiny hint of concentration to manifest the Sword Formation of Immortal Condemnation. It was a formation made purely of sword qi; the sword qi was transformed from the energy of wind, thunder, fire, and water.

The great formation facing them was one that turned the energy into combat arts instead. The two utilized different approaches to reach the same conclusion. It would be difficult to determine the victor when both formations operated at maximum capacity.

Since Daoist Ingress was the inventor of the Sword Formation of Immortal Condemnation, he was well aware of its weaknesses. He could extrapolate his knowledge to pinpoint this formation’s weakness. if his primary body was here, he would’ve already broken free. As strong as it was, the formation was just a tattered remnant with indelible flaws.

In fact, Daoist Ingress was of a mind to make this a teaching moment, but shelved the idea when he noted the confident turn of Lu Yun’s lips.

Boom!

A massive explosion rang within the chaos dirt as a ponderous being rose to its feet beneath them, then slowly moved toward the group.

“Organs of the world!” Shu Yan gasped, clearly sensing that something had gathered them into a body and that the body was making its way toward them. He was here to protect the organs, to prevent anything undesired from developing.

Hongjun and God delivering Heavenfall and Worldcarver naturally hadn’t escaped his notice, so he’d held down the fort here while scheming against Lu Yun.

“Trash!” Shu Yan cursed. “Since you can’t protect your primary body, go and get your new body! It’s already at your doorstep!”

Divine spirit!

The divine spirit born of the organs of the world!

Given that there were five organs of the world, there should’ve been five divine spirits—one for each organ. Due to inference from an outside force, only one divine spirit developed among them. The other four became its replicas. Even then, they were capable of releasing incredible power as replicas. 

The one directing the chaos dirt puppets to attack the peak grand supremes earlier had been a replica. All of them and the primary body had already been gathered here, observing Lu Yun at every second. Shu Yan set his plans in motion when he first met Lu Yun; neither Jin Huo or Wei Lie had detected that he’d done anything to the young man.

If it wasn’t for Daoist Ingress’ palace of sword qi being too keen, the divine spirit’s five bodies would’ve already rushed Lu Yun to take possession of him.

The divine spirit had given up his primary body, rendering the organs of the world as just pure spirit entities. Lu Yun’s body was the one that Shu Yan had prepared for him.

Moments ago, Lu Yun used puppet dao to collect chaos dirt and fashion it into a massive puppet. He gathered the organs of the world into it, sending Shu Yan into a frenzy when he realized. Thus, he directed the killing formation’s strongest power into untold combat arts, condensed them into one, and stabbed it at the palace of sword light.

Daoist Ingress’ eyes widened with dismay. That combat art was so strong that it was impossible for his palace to withstand the blow!

The sudden change was outside of Lu Yun’s expectations as well. He had no way of calculating what a powerhouse like Shu Yan wanted to hide or change. Tailong had once said that Lu Yun possessed the qualification to be his strategist only when the young man stood at the same cultivation level as him. He would have to be a peak grand supreme before he had the right to intervene in these matters.

This abrupt development was outside of his expectations. Even Daoist Ingress, someone who knew the formation of the four powers like the back of his hand, didn’t foresee the possibility of this blow.

KABOOM!

The palace of sword light shattered and the massive impact pressed the two into the chaos dirt. If it wasn’t for Lu Yun wearing the Spiritpoison robe that Daoist Ingress had given him, he’d already be pulverized into dust.

But it was also because of the dirk’s protection that Shu Yan dared unleash this move. If Lu Yun died, the divine spirit of the organs would also erupt in open hostilities against him.

The immense combat art’s strength ripped through Spiritpoison and revealed Lu Yun’s body. The spirit cheered and shifted into tendrils of black smoke, snaking toward the young man.
