Necropolis Immortal Chapter 1965 – The Giants’ Trap

Chapter 1965 – The Giants’ Trap

The path beneath the duo’s feet led to the giant tree. All was quiet around it. The grand supremes were waiting, waiting for a certain item to appear. No one made a move when two ants approached them, despite some of them wanting to shoo the two away or kill them.

Making a move meant potentially exposing oneself and displaying weaknesses to the others on the scene. Every grand supreme here was a potential enemy; two minor high supremes weren’t worth consideration.

Thus, Lu Yun casually arrived at the bottom of the tree amidst a sea of watchful gazes, still holding Chu Xun. He’d gradually retracted the power of reincarnation along the way and released power from the Tome of Life and Death instead, concealing the two of them so they appeared to be ordinary high supremes.

Not even peak grand supremes could see through the book, to say nothing of a crowd that lacked a single representative from that cultivation level.

Lu Yun hid nothing else apart from their auras. The treasure couldn’t obscure one’s form, so that would backfire if he tried. It would emphasize that something was amiss instead. By the time he arrived at the bottom of the giant tree, an emerald-green fire had ignited in the section of withered wood in the Tome of Life and Death.

Dense vitality emanated from the emerald fire—the flame of the order of life!

Lu Yun remained calmly nonchalant, but waves of shock roiled in his heart.

The six orders of the highest degree!

The five supreme orders!

These eleven orders were the greatest among existence and essentially defined the existence of all life. Life was one of the five supreme orders!

While he was in the Hongmeng, Lu Yun borrowed the four supreme orders of creation, origin, truth, and eternity to derive the order of life. He’d then given it to Moat Snake Carmine Arbiter and helped her become one of the five ancestral gods.

While the moat snake was a supreme now, a supreme was too weak in the grand scheme of things. She had no right to wield the order of life, so while she was a budding ancestral god, she lacked the qualification to be mentioned alongside the likes of the azure dragon ancestral god and the others.

She could only passively receive endowments from the order of life—she couldn’t actively wield it. But if Lu Yun gave her this flame of the order of life, she would immediately become the fifth ancestral god in strength and name. She would truly take her place beside Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

The order of life wasn’t very useful to Lu Yun. Using it to ignite a fire for Carmine Arbiter would be the best use of it. Based on what he saw, the ancient tree god had cultivated the order of life. He’d been heading in the direction of becoming the ancestral god of life, but failed when he was interrupted halfway.

This strand of fire from the order of life existed only due to assistance from the Tome of Life and Death. If Lu Yun’s guess was right, the enormous tree in front of him was the body that the tree god had left behind. It was the tree god’s past self!

When he tilted his head back to look at the towering tree, Lu Yun saw nothing more than a plant that he couldn’t see the peak of. It blotted out the sun and covered the clouds. That was it.

“The treasure on the tree must have something to do with the order of life!” He reflexively called on formula dao again, trying to pierce through the fog around him. He could only determine that there was something here that had to do with the order of life.

He was more certain than ever that this was a trap. This tree had once been the tree god’s body, but the tree god would leave behind more than a corpse. A new spirit would be born in it after he left, becoming a second tree god.

However, the tree in front of him was an empty shell. All of its life essence, various great daos, and order had been dug out long ago. An emerald-green fruit floated in the heart of the tree, making it seem just as lush as it had been in its past life.

The treasure that all of the grand supremes coveted was that floating fruit.

Lu Yun didn’t observe all of this by himself—the burning withered wood in the Tome of Life and Death imparted it to him. That contained the last essence of the tree god and was the core of this tree. It also held the tree god’s final great dao.

Not only that, but Lu Yun’s Karmic Tree was also a branch of the enormous tree. It was just that a spirit hadn’t developed in the Karmic Tree. He could use his tree and the withered wood to see the truth behind the giant tree.

It was a trap, an enormous trap for hunting.

Once the fruit matured, it would flare with vitality that would detonate the tree, turning it into a gigantic net to capture all of the grand supremes present. The giants had woven a net out of the hollowed tree a long time ago.

But given the situation, Lu Yun didn’t know how to notify the others. Would any grand supreme believe him?

“Where’s Cen Sui gone? Has he died in the burial mound?” He suddenly recalled the grand supreme that’d been traveling with him. While Cen Sui’s reputation was tattered in the chief worlds and he was the hidden master of the void robbers, he was still one of the strongest grand supremes. His words held weight.

But since Lu Yun couldn’t find the man at the moment, he could only hope that the grand supremes gathered didn’t have that much meat on them.

“Lu Yun?! What are you doing here? Get out of here, it’s too dangerous!” Cen Sui’s voice echoed in the young man’s mind just when Lu Yun thought of him.

“You’re here too?” He lit up.

Since Cen Sui was familiar with Lu Yun’s current appearance and the young man had kept it when he entered the burial mound, it was easy for the former to recognize him. Lu Yun’s arrival hadn’t gone unnoticed; he just hadn’t said anything because he didn’t know what the young man intended to do.

“This is a trap set by an incredibly terrifying creature, you need to leave!” Cen Sui transmitted his words in a very discreet manner. He was using his full strength to prevent others from eavesdropping.

“So you guys know!” Lu Yun started. Well, that made sense. If a humble high supreme like him could make out the arrangements in the surroundings, how would grand supremes who’d eaten more salt than the footsteps he’d walked be fooled by the trap?

Lu Yun leaned on the section of withered wood and the Karmic Tree, but so were grand supremes in possession of stunningly impressive methods.

“Of course we do…” Cen Sui sighed with relief. Lu Yun sounded like he did as well.

“There’s a horrific kind of giant in the tomb of the empyrean supreme and they kill everything they see to eat as food. They’ve already cooked more grand supremes than we’re aware of—they’re the ones behind this trap. We’re here to play into it and hunt down the giants instead!” Cen Sui explained.

No wonder it was so quiet here! Every grand supreme kept themselves tightly in check, seemingly in preparation for the treasure, but actually for the giants to show themselves.
