Necropolis Immortal
chapter-1728-2-30041322

It’d been so long since Lu Yun last set foot in the world of immortals that it’d become a strange, yet familiar world to him. The thirty-three facets, Nephrite Major, Dusk Province…

His governor’s manor yet remained and everything he’d ever used remained in their original state. His old residence had become the most sacred of sacred lands and he was the saint of the world of immortals. His statues were worshiped in the thirty-three facets and heavenly palace—statues of mud.

Only statues of mud could be worshiped in this world.

He never appeared again in the world of immortals after concluding everything. The world’s conflicts, rise and fall had nothing to do with him. A new generation of stunning geniuses grew into their own, fulfilling their roles and creating their own era.

The Dao Flower bloomed serenely in Mount Xuanhuang, and while the Dao Academy basked in its peak of power and splendor, it rarely accepted disciples these days. The academies in the thirty-three facets were the true halls of learning for the future of the world.

Just like Dusk City, the academy of Mount Xuanhuang had become a symbol.

The world of immortals’ prestige had reached its apex. Immortal dao began traversing and budding throughout the Hongmeng. However, those of the sophisticated third realm didn’t consider themselves superior to the tiny world. The world of immortals was the core of the Hongmeng!

As immortal dao developed, so did immortals grow stronger. Cultivation realms that’d once belonged to the chaos were swallowed by the immortal dao, thereby propelling the immortals even further forward.

“You’ve finally come back…” The first to welcome Lu Yun wasn’t Qing Yu, but a mournful expression on a wrinkled and wizened face.

Ge Long.

Startled, Lu Yun raised his eyebrows and responded awkwardly, “Great Lord Ingress, I’ve already wiped your name from the Tome of Life and Death. You are no longer my subordinate, so why are you dressed like this?”

Lord Ingress was the successor to Ingress Blood Island and Ingress Sword Island. Noble personages such as the Three Pure Ones, Hongjun, Pangu and God were beyond Meng Wang’s comprehension, to say nothing of even more mysterious figures such as Fuxi, Wahuang, and their family.

In all of Meng Wang’s reincarnations, Fuxi had always been there to accompany his growth and development. Fuxi had still been his teacher during the age of the original Hongmeng.

“Just keeping a low profile, heh,” Lord Ingress chuckled. “Those punks on Ingress Sword Island didn’t cause any trouble for you, did they?”

“Not much, they’ve all joined the Formula Academy at Mount Astronomia and built a line of defense against the darkness.”

Ingress Sword Island had capitulated to the Luminaries, and once the latter disbanded to become the Formula Academy, Ingress Sword Island naturally joined the new faction.

“Alright, enough chit chat. You mighty experts shouldn’t be kicking back and enjoying your days in a safe spot like the world of immortals. You should go fight in the fourth realm!” Lu Yun waved him off.

“A safe spot like the world of immortals?” Lord Ingress snorted. “Do you think it’d be safe without us mighty experts standing guard over it? All sorts of bad characters invaded the world of immortals when the world of sequence opened. They tried to claim the little lass’ nascent spirit. If it wasn’t for us… hmph!” He said nothing more after glancing at Meng Wang.

Lu Yun had set up airtight contingencies before he left all those years ago. Despite him not taking personal action when outside forces invaded, they still wouldn’t have shifted the Dao Flower one bit.

Waving the old man off with a chuckle, he finally came face to face with Qing Yu. It’d been just a few short years for him, but a thousand years for her and the world of immortals.

“You… wait, do you intend to have your dao partner refine the core essence of sequence?” Meng Wang’s jaw dropped. “You don’t want it yourself?”

Lu Yun would be the master of a world of sequence if he refined it. Though he needed to continue cultivating before he could properly access it, he was still the first one to enter the world of sequence and would thus benefit in certain ways. But now, he was going to relinquish the opportunity to his dao partner!

Not even Meng Wang felt that he could’ve resisted temptation if he’d been in the young man’s shoes. He would never offer up this chance with both hands, not even to his most beloved!

Qing Yu also looked hesitantly at Lu Yun. She knew where he’d gone and what he’d done.

“The Time Guard of this Land of Reincarnation told me that the convening of the three anomalies might put an end to the endless cycles, that this world might go back to normal,” Lu Yun murmured. “All of them are with me right now—Fairylands, the core essence of the world of sequence, and myself.

“I think… I might accomplish the very opposite of what I want to do if the other two continue to stay with me. Therefore, I must give them to the two people closest to me.”

Lu Yun had grown up without his parents—his master had filled the role instead. The same had held true after he arrived in the world of immortals. Qing Yu, the little fox, Lu Qing, Wan Feng, and his disciples were the small handful that comprised of his family.

Thus, he was going to give the other two to Qing Yu and the little fox. Miao had already received Fairylands and become its mistress. Qing Yu would now receive the core essence of sequence to become the mistress of the world of sequence.

“That is true, furiously collecting every treasure for yourself would be your downfall in the end,” Meng Wang nodded. “I have a few acquaintances left in the world of immortals. I will go and wake them.”

He left, leaving Lu Yun and Qing Yu to smile enigmatically at each other. Lord Ingress also left with loud grumbles.

……

When Miao returned to the world of immortals after a period of time, the three of them no longer separated and lived days of idyllic bliss.

The three thousandth year of the Xuanhuang calendar.

Another thousand years had passed. While Lu Yun seemed leisurely and relaxed, he was busy making preparations at every second. On this day, Qing Yu fully refined the core essence of sequence and created a world of immortal dao sequence in the heavenly palace!

The latter was crafted by the Tome of Life and Death, thus making it similar to the kingdom of hell. Their names might be humble, but they were enormous worlds at heart. The heavenly palace became the bonafide core of the world of immortals—the world of immortal dao sequence!

Ethereal music resounded in the world of immortals the moment its world of sequence materialized. Immortal flowers drifted through the air and the immortal dao underwent another metamorphosis. It fully traversed the Hongmeng in a split second and immortal dao became the dominant dao of the third realm!

All of it happened so quickly that there was no forewarning. Entities of different paths one moment before, every Hongmeng denizen suddenly become one of immortal dao the next.

……

“He really did it, he created a world of immortal dao sequence!” Mo Yi smiled faintly in her position overseeing the Hongmeng for the little fox.

“Indeed, the kid did it without making a sound. He snatched the core essence of sequence and accomplished the deed before anyone could fully respond!” Sitting next to Mo Yi, the Dao King also smiled with relief. “The newly born world of immortal dao sequence cannot support the entire Land of Reincarnation yet, but if those of the fourth realm cultivate immortal dao, it will help immortal dao reach this realm and fully develop into an order that can support it.”

The appearance of the world of immortal dao sequence indicated the manifestation of its sequence. Once its denizens reached the peak of cultivation, they would be able to open its doors.

The fourth realm trembled as immortal dao sparkled from its concealment in formula dao. Tiny shoots that it’d peppered throughout the realm sprouted and took root as saplings. On this day, it announced that it was actually part of immortal dao!

However, the orders of the fourth realm were deficient and it would take a while before the order of immortal dao could dominate the others and rule the realm. Everything needed to follow a process.

It wouldn’t take too long since immortal dao classes were already appearing in the various Formula Academies. They initiated new acolytes into immortal dao, and it was a given that immortal dao had seeped into the various worlds and Hongmeng of the fourth realm. No one could stop the trend.

……

“He did it.” A figure of pale green smiled in the darkness—the Poison King—the Curse King’ senior brother. His features spasmed and turned into Chu Xingran’s appearance before his body crumbled away.

The last echoes of karmic ties that Chu Xingran had with the Land of Reincarnation drifted away upon the wind.

……

A dragon shadow shot out from Lu Yun’s hand and sank into the world of immortal dao sequence. It was the enigma stone vein that Chu Xingran had left behind. Lu Yun wanted to seed it in the world of immortal dao sequence instead of the world of immortals or fourth realm.

The world of sequence must illuminate the entire Land of Reincarnation. The vein would produce endless seeds and follow the light of order to scatter among the primary and secondary worlds of the fourth realm.

Under the radiance of immortal dao sequence, Lu Yun opened his door of sequence.

Immortal dao!
