Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 2003 – Transaction

“The Imperial Seal?!” gasped the Disordered Empyrean Supreme. She hastily put away her spear and shifted ten thousand kilometers back. The terrifying killing intent within the treasure was quite evident, but she soon realized there was nothing to fear.

“The Imperial Seal, hmm? So what if even the heavenly emperor arrives in person?” She was a true empyrean supreme now. She had attained that cultivation level to begin with and now wielded the true strength of those heights through the shamanic ancestor’s skull and her spear. In all areas that mattered at the moment, she was a bonafide empyrean supreme.

Thus, she victoriously swept her spear forward and rushed back to the conflict.

The Imperial Seal swiveled in front of Daoist Ingress and rapidly grew bigger, protecting his body. A faint figure floated out of the treasure.

“Yun Yi?!” Both the Disordered Empyrean Supreme and Lu Yun stopped, dazed, when they saw the figure. The Disordered Empyrean Supreme didn’t know that Yun Yi was dead, but she knew that the latter couldn’t come to the burial mound. If she did, she would die without a doubt.

The heavenly emperor’s golden bridge of heaven and earth was designed to prevent Yun Yi from coming here.

The abruptly appearing Yun Yi said not a word. She executed a predefined command like she was a robot. True empyrean strength blossomed from her and descended upon the void. Rays of formidable energy slowly coalesced into the shape of an altar.

The mother altar.

God’s mother altar!

Boom!

Colorless flames bloomed from the mother altar and enveloped Yun Yi’s last replica and the Disordered Empyrean Supreme.

“You… you!” The empyrean supreme’s eyes were wide with horror and disbelief. She was beginning to understand something.

Yun Yi had resurrected her not to give the chief worlds another peak grand supreme or empyrean supreme, but for this singular moment. To sacrifice her! Yun Yi wanted to ensure the sacrifice of a Disordered Empyrean Supreme who’d truly returned to the level of empyrean supreme!

Lu Yun also thought that Yun Yi had completely lost her mind. Using an empyrean supreme as a sacrificial good?? No wonder the dark empyrean supreme hadn’t dared visit the burial mound. If his primary body had come, Yun Yi would’ve found a way to keep him here and use him for the sacrifice instead.

Transparent flames wrapped around all of the supremes and peak grand supremes within the tomb—even Chen Xiao, Qing Buyi, Lu Feng, Tailong, Jin Huo, and the self-styled wretched old man of the humans!

Lu Yun was the only exception.

Everyone present who’d reached supreme level was a sacrificial good! Whether it was actual supremes, those who wielded strength on par with supremes, or the humans that couldn’t cultivate—all would take their places on the altar.

The wretched old man and humans in the burial mound didn’t seem to find their final outcome distasteful. They spread out their arms and smiled with the relief of impending release, ready to welcome unending death.

Those sacrificed in these proceedings wouldn’t leave even their wills behind. They would fully vanish upon the wind and leave no trace of themselves.

Of course, those who died bearing resentment could further transform into wild ghosts that could not be resurrected. But given this level of sacrificial rite, even resentment would be consumed.

“So you sacrificed yourself in exchange for this power, and now you want to sacrifice the burial mound made out of the entire primordial world of immortals.” The Disordered Empyrean Supreme was trying to call upon her father’s empyrean strength left within the skull. But under these circumstances, neither empyrean strength nor ultimate treasure proved to be effective against the terrifying power of sacrifice.

Lu Yun’s expression turned unpleasant as he knew that he was safe from being sacrificed because Qiu Feishan had delivered the Imperial Seal to him. Not only was it protecting him, but it was also protecting Daoist Ingress.

If Ingress died, then his Sword Formation of Immortal Condemnation would also break and the fragments of the Jade Record of Creation would rush out of the burial mound. All of this was well within Yun Yi’s calculations.

Wei Lie had left, the heavenly emperor had also left—it seemed very likely that they’d known something would happen here!

Sacrificial rites demanded a certain process, especially one as magnificent as this one. They wouldn’t be completed within the span of a day. Fires of sacrifice already covered everyone; no resistance or escape was possible. They could only watch as the fires devoured them.

The motes of light that were the fragments of the Jade Record of Creation weren’t consumed. They furiously dashed themselves against the sword formation, trying to break through it. But since the formation had taken shape, the power of wind, thunder, fire, and water thoroughly sealed off the void.

There was no place for the Jade Record of Creation to run to and the spirit within it keened with despair.

“No!” Lu Yun set his jaw. “I don’t care if you sacrifice the others, but you have to leave my people alone!”

Humm!

He blasted out with milky-white radiance—the power of reincarnation. The image of the Tome of Life and Death materialized over his head and he waved the power over to Lu Feng, Qing Buyi, Chen Xiao, and Tailong.

Reincarnation immediately extinguished the fires of sacrifice, but there was still Jin Huo and Cen Sui outside. There was also the wretched old man and humans in the burial mound—Lu Yun wanted to save them all.

The one thing he wouldn’t try was to leave the area. Daoist Ingress’ formation had sealed it off. If he wanted to leave, the formation would have to be opened and the fragments of the Jade Record of Creation would follow him out.

Lu Yun didn’t know what would happen if the treasure left, but his formula dao was able to give him ever clearer answers. Yun Yi’s plot wouldn’t harm him in any way. On the contrary, there was a certain possibility for the end goal that made Lu Yun tremble with excitement!

The strong needed to become strong so they could support themselves? The strong needed to disdain knowledge from others and do everything themselves? Bullshit! Only when one stood on the shoulders of giants could one walk further!

Lu Yun had once stood on Fuxi’s shoulders, and now Yun Yi had built a skyscraper for him. Only when he reached the top floor could he see into the distance.

“Save me!” Fragments from the Jade Record of Creation collected as a human in front of Lu Yun. It was an exceedingly beautiful woman who wafted a strange illusion. She showed remarkable hints of Qing Yu and the little fox.

But with Lu Yun’s well trained mind, he wouldn’t be beguiled by these falsehoods.

“How about a transaction?” he called out to the enormous mother altar in the air.

“The master of reincarnation does indeed have the right to transact with me,” boomed a resonant voice as a huge face floated ponderously up from the altar. There seemed to be a massive entity looking down on this part of existence.

“I want some people,” Lu Yun said.

“The payment?”

“How about I sacrifice the five sets of the organs of the world to you?” He responded after some thought. After Wayfarer and the others ate the divine spirits, he stored the organs in more chaos dirt puppets.

The five chaos dirt puppets reached unforeseen heights and were on par with peak grand supremes. The other six organs of the body were also forming in them. It would be one small step for them to become real living beings.

“I don’t need them.” The androgynous face shook gently. “I’m interested in the bamboo scroll over your head. I’ll give you who you want if you sacrifice it to me.”

The face sharpened with clarity, enabling Lu Yun to confirm that its owner wasn’t in the tomb. It wasn’t in the chief worlds either, or even part of this plane of existence. It was a sovereign that’d exceeded existence, looking down over everything from nothingness.
