Necropolis Immortal
chapter-1668

“Damn it!” Sweat beaded the ghost’s forehand and his hands turned clammy. “That damned Lu Yun only needed a soybean replica to beat me so badly that I could only wish for death. I had to use power from Ruina to fend him off! I will be ground beneath his heel for as long as he is in the kingdom!”

Ruina and the kingdom of Ruina were two different concepts. Ruina was the origin and final destination of the sea. The kingdom was the hell within it. While the kingdom had given rise to Myriadsea World, the strength of Ruina was also present within the kingdom. As opposed to the power of the dead, the strength of Ruina was from the living and part of sea dao.

Given that it was the core of Ruina, whoever controlled the kingdom wielded all of Ruina’s power. As of now, the kingdom was shattered and assimilation of sea dao was required to repair it.

“Thank goodness there’s still a trace of Ruina’s power within the kingdom, and that the first being to arrive on this world bearing sea dao hailed from the shark spirits. Otherwise, it would be my doom today.” The dead entity no longer nursed ambitions to steal Lu Yun’s great dao. All he wanted to do was to see this plague lord out.

The ghost vanished from the true Ruina with a shake of his body. He wasn’t afraid of Lu Yun—if he could find the young man’s true body, he would snuff out Lu Yun’s existence with one strike. But up until now… he’d never seen Lu Yun’s true self.

The young man had vanished after killing the Curse King. All of the ones around now were either golden armored warriors or a replica from the Myriad Spirit Root of the World.

Lu Yun appeared again after the ghost left.

“You want to get away from me? I, on the other hand, want to get close to you, more’s the pity for you. My hell dao has just formed and if it’s to mature to the point of commanding life and death, I’ll need to refine this Ruina Hell in the middle of your precious Ruina.”

He dove into the waters and entered the enormous vortex. Endless seawater churned around him and sought to crush him. There was nothing else here apart from the power of water and the sea. Not even immortal dao could reach inside. But since he’d dared jump in, of course he was fully prepared.

Of his ten Yama Kings, Aoxue was a blood dragon, Xuanxi was a shark spirit, Cangyin was a blood qilin from the water qilin race, and Luli was a blood tortoise. The heart of their previous cultivation was sea dao, and as their master, Lu Yun could access their potential and easily obtain their dao.

Thus, he temporarily transformed his own dao into sea dao and nearly became one with Ruina. He continuously operated formula dao to derive the relationship between sea dao and Ruina. Meanwhile, hell dao casually devoured the power around it to manifest the kingdom of Ruina—the hell within the seas.

“Lu Yun!!” The partial face that was the ghost suddenly appeared and bawled, “You go too far!”

“Then come and get me,” Lu Yun snorted at the entity. “Or shall I smash your face in again?”

Whoosh!

Black flame ignited on him—the hellfire of the combined six hells. Despite its nature being of fire, it had no problem burning in water. Lu Yun leveraged its might to deploy the Hadal Hell Dao combat art, whipping it at the ghost.

Livid, the dead entity immediately dismissed his body and vanished without a trace. There was no point in using Ruina against Lu Yun’s replica—it would be ineffective. Besides, its strength needed to be reserved for the real Sea Lord, Jian Bu’er, and others.

Use it to fight a soybean? Utterly meaningless.

“He’s confined the power of the kingdom around here.” Lu Yun suddenly halted—his hell dao was no longer absorbing strength from the surroundings.

“This is just Ruina, the start of the seas. Although it’s also the origin of the kingdom, there is a real kingdom somewhere in Myraidsea World.” He contemplated the situation with a frown. “No, most of Ruina’s strength is concentrated over there. If I head there, that thing will easily suppress me.”

Although the start of Ruina was this locale, most of its strength was centered on the kingdom and refining the various dao beholders that’d entered the kingdom. That was why Lu Yun had come here. It was the most dangerous place, and thus the safest.

“Lu Yun,” the ghost’s voice rang again. “You should reconsider the proposal that I offered earlier.”

“What, give you everything that is me and bet my life on you as well?” Lu Yun shook his head. “You’re not a moron, why do you think I am?”

The other fell silent. Lu Yun sat down cross-legged and employed formula dao on the premises, trying to find an opening.

“As strong as your dao is, Lu Yun, and it is a very strong one even outside of this forsaken place,” the entity said meaningfully, “You are too weak and too small. There are many things you can’t see, so you cannot analyze them.”

“You’re right, there are many things I cannot see, but I know the truth of this world.” Lu Yun retracted formula dao and summoned a ball of black light into his hand.

“What, what are you doing?!” The entity seemed to sense something.

“Everything about you is too big for me. I don’t know where you come from or where this world comes from, but I do know what you’re attached to—a realm monster!” Lu Yun leered. “All of my problems will be resolved if I awaken it.”

“You, you, what??? Stop. STOP!!” The ghost panicked when he heard this. This was the last thing he expected!

Realm monsters were formed from dead worlds and carried the resentment of an entire world. They were terrifying ghosts. This one was so strong that the entity had had to use the strange altar to barely subdue it.

Wham!

Lu Yun didn’t give the entity any time to think as he flung his arms wide open and pushed the waters back, releasing a pillar of black light that soared into the firmament. Another Lu Yun appeared on the altar in the middle of Immortal Nation, likewise releasing the same black light.

An image of the Tome of Life and Death slowly coalesced in the air and the world began to tremble.

“Stop, stop!!” The entity frantically waved his hands. He forsook the form of a mermaid and returned to his true form—one half of a face. A corresponding altar emerged over the face, the one that stood at the center of Immortal Nation.

The strength it displayed now was leagues apart from the altar in Immortal Nation had exuded before. This was its true shape—greater than the vortex formed by Ruina. It suppressed the awakening realm monster the second it appeared, sending it back into a deep sleep.

Lu Yun’s replica on the altar in Immortal Nation flew apart upon the wind, but another Lu Yun stepped forward and sent the same black light into the sky, connecting with the Lu Yun in Ruina and calling out to the realm monster once more.

Umm... okay I'm with the idiotic enemy this time. You want to WHAT Lu Yun??
