Necropolis Immortal Chapter 1891: Heart of a Dark World

Chapter 1891: Heart of a Dark World

“Your beloved mother doesn’t trust me,” Lu Yun proclaimed when Nightmare caught up to him.

“Huh?” the ghost cultivator blinked.

“She doesn’t trust me because she can’t tell how I’m controlling you. As a grand supreme, she can naturally determine with a single glance that you treat me with a different attitude,” Lu Yun sighed. “When she talked about betrothing you to me, that was a test. If I really had accepted, she would’ve killed me on the spot.

“Your mother’s plans for you… heh,” Lu Yun laughed in a self-deprecating manner. He’d almost wanted to erase Nightmare’s name from the Tome of Life and Death just now. The sect master of the Ghost Sect had locked onto him with terrifying malice!

He’d felt this wave of malevolence before he set foot into the sect, but the sect master ultimately kept her murderous desires in check because she was also a grand supreme. She knew who backed Lu Yun.

“I…” Nightmare paused, dazed, and chuckled ruefully. “Mother would probably be very happy if her name could be written into the treasure too.”

Lu Yun shook his head. “Your mother is a grand supreme, so there’s no point in writing her name down. I’m too weak. C’mon, let’s go fetch that world heart.”

He was on the alert after finding out that not all grand supremes were interested in the tomb of the empyrean supreme. How many were like the sect master of the Ghost Sect?

“Are we still going to a Dark World?” Nightmare blinked. “Mother will probably not join hell even if you obtain a world heart.”

“Of course she won’t, how would I ever believe a ghost cultivator completely full of bullshit?” Lu Yun curled his lip. “But she did remind me that I have a lot of use for one. If I can devour several of them, I’ll be able to manifest a child world of hell.”

“A child world?” Nightmare started.

“It’ll be similar to the previous eighteen layers of hell that once existed. Hell is only hell at the moment, a vast and unbounded world. It has no obligations or authority, and it doesn’t bury the living as the six hells once did.” Lu Yun thought for a moment. “Only when I craft a child world in hell and prod hell dao into evolving order can I forge a world of hell dao sequence.”

Nightmare’s eyes widened.

Forge a world of hell dao sequence?

The original god of Mount Tai had managed the deed and his world of sequence was the foremost world of sequence in the chief worlds. But his hell dao was incomplete since he’d only possessed five hells, so the world of sequence was a failure and ultimately destroyed.

The seed of nothing resulting from it melded into the first realm. Eventually, traces of the first world of hell dao sequence were completely erased from existence.

Lu Yun had been searching for a way to open another world of sequence, but repeated deductions told him that the most ideal opportunity lay with the Ghost Sect. That was why he’d come with Nightmare, and to think that the opportunity would result from one casual exchange with its sect master!

The world heart of a Dark World.

There was great meaning to forging a world of hell dao sequence. Immortal dao had its own world of sequence now, but if it could open another, it would absolutely become the number one great dao among the chief worlds. Traversing the outside realm would no longer be a dream.

Lu Yun had an even greater ambition—craft worlds of sequence for all three thousand daos under immortal dao!

If he was successful, that would make the current World of Immortals the heart of the chief worlds. Even chief world denizens would have to take the ascent protocol to the World of Immortals once they reached a certain peak in their cultivation.

First the world of hell dao sequence, then the world of formula dao sequence.

But it was an exceedingly difficult task to create a world of sequence. Heavyweights of the chief worlds had spent countless eons, four Hell Tombs, and the core essence of the Land of Reincarnation to create one world of sequence. Lu Yun’s goal was a long and arduous journey that could not be completed in one night.

His most pressing job was to retrieve a world heart and use it to derive a child world for hell dao. He needed to forge eighteen layers of hell and coalesce hell dao order.

The closest Dark World was very far from the Ghost Sect and even more infinitely far from the World of Immortals. It would take Lu Yun a while to reach it. Thus, he bought tickets on a flight treasure. As they sped through the void, major worlds passed by them like scintillating balls of energy.

“What are you thinking about?” Nightmare sat next to Lu Yun and couldn’t help asking when she saw him lost in thought.

“I’m wondering what the true nature of this world is,” Lu Yun murmured. “If there wasn’t life, what would be the point of this massive void and these worlds?”f???we??૦ν?Ɩ. c૦m

“Huh?” Whatever Nightmare expected, this wasn’t it.

“There is an origin point and starting point for life, but before life came to be, what were these worlds here for?” Lu Yun continued. “Life formed out of an accident, and with life comes perspective. That is how we see the world in front of us. But what about the time before life?”

He looked at Nightmare, who blinked back at him.

There was no order before life. Order bestowed structure to existence, thereby creating the conditions and environment for life. Lu Yun’s question was correct. What was the meaning of this world, the chief worlds, and existences even more encompassing than them?

He’d thought about this question before when he was still on Earth, but he was too small to see the vastness of the outside. There was only one thought in his mind, that if Earth was the only location of life and intelligence in the universe, then what of things before Earth existed?

What was the purpose for the universe then?

“Hahahaha!!” came a loud peal of laughter as a tall, muscular man walked up to Lu Yun. “That is a great question, fellow daoist! I am Xu Che.” He raised cupped fists.

Lu Yun rose to return the gesture. He could tell that Xu Che was at least a fortieth level sequence cultivator—on par with Nightmare. The Spectral Eye, however, told him that there was something more frightening on this Xu Che that could tear supremes apart.

This was no ordinary person.

“Zhu Lingyan,” Lu Yun offered.

“So you’re one of the Myriad Spirit Grant Supreme’s!” Xu Che’s eyes flashed with recognition when he heard the name. Thanks to assiduous efforts from the supreme’s disciples, Zhu Lingyan was well known throughout the chief worlds. That would make his travels easier.

“Well met!” Lu Yun smiled. “Can fellow daoist enlighten me?”

“I… I cannot either,” Xu Che shook his head. “If I could, I would stand at the apex of this world. But I know one person who can answer your question!”

“Who is it?” Lu Yun brightened.

“The master of formula dao from the World of Immortals, Lu Yun!”
