Necropolis Immortal Chapter 2034 – Ancestor

Chapter 2034 – Ancestor

“There’s no need for you to continue hiding after those eyes of great dao have been recalled, no? There are so many treasures in this world. What you brought back from the Cardinal Sacred City is a drop in the bucket compared to what’s out there,” the Disordered Empyrean Supreme said after a long period of silence.

“Too much greed sometimes gets in our own way.” Lu Yun shook his head and thought of something else. “Have you come back after finding something? Do you need my help?”

The hint of a smile finally floated onto the empyrean supreme’s face. “Yes, I did find something, something good. A tomb.”

“Another tomb?” Lu Yun pursed his lips. He made some silent calculations and exclaimed, “A tomb for a being not of this world?”

“With the dao methods of this world, would I need your help if it was homegrown?” the Disordered Empyrean Supreme snorted. “It’s Ancestor’s tomb. Who would’ve thought that he’d die, and to that bunch of native idiots?”

“Native idiots?” Lu Yun had to shake his head at that. “As sophisticated as you are, you’ll meet your doom at a single blast of light from their great dao. The cultivators of the Three Thousand are no idiots. Who’s Ancestor?”

That was an obnoxiously arrogant name.

The Disordered Empyrean Supreme pointed at the long abandoned altar in the center of the tribe. “That belongs to Ancestor.”

Lu Yun’s eyes shot wide open.

“There are two terrifying beings in the nihil—Ancestor and Forebear. They’re dao partners and the creators of all of the altars in the Three Thousand.

“The original masters of this realm are those two—there were no cultivators here to begin with. All of them had been chased out and drifted aimlessly through the nothing. Everyone living here was Ancestor and Forebear’s people. They only needed to make sacrifices and offer their faith to receive anything they needed. They could even ascend to sacred supremes if they desired to.”

The Disordered Empyrean Supreme sighed with emotion. “But after some time, for reasons unknown to anyone, Ancestor and Forebear left the Three Thousand together and entered the nothing. And then, this realm turned into what we see now.

“I never thought that Ancestor would be dead…”

Lu Yun blinked, digesting the new knowledge. “I always thought that it was God behind the altars?”

“God?” the empyrean supreme paused when she heard the name. “God is their son.”

First there were the forefathers, then there was God.

Lu Yun’s jaw dropped and he stared dazedly. The possibility of such an impressive background had never occurred to him. He’d thought that God was a manifestation of the nascent spirit from a certain powerhouse.

“If Ancestor is dead, then it’s… Forebear behind these altars?” He very much cared about the truth behind the altars as increasing numbers of tribes attacked Sacred Radiance after the tribe abandoned theirs. Plainly, they had received certain guidance to do.

As Lu Yun kept himself hidden in the shadows, the rest of the world thought that Sacred Radiance had attained spontaneous enlightenment and grasped a rough method of cultivation. It was why nothing more extreme had been brought to bear against the tribe.

If Lu Yun showed himself, swift and thorough devastation would arrive.

“No,” the Disordered Empyrean Supreme shook her head. “I originally thought that it was Ancestor and Forebear behind the altars as well. But if they are, why do the humans of this realm continue to exist in such a primitive state? Their development should’ve far exceeded anything derived from the corpses of the nihil, and it should’ve done so a very long time ago.”

Ancestor and Forebear wanted worship, not sacrifices. The altars had been modified and Ancestor had died in this world, which meant that Forebear must have also suffered a devastating blow. The person behind it all was neither Ancestor nor Forebear, and it certainly wasn’t God.

Lu Yun’s gut instinct was to decline helping the Disordered Empyrean Supreme, but Ancestor was God’s father, which also made him the young man’s senior. As utterly lawless as he might be, he couldn’t refuse to help in a matter like this. Ancestor was mysteriously dead and there was no trace to be found of Forebear. Only the tomb held answers.

“Alright, I’ll go with you,” Lu Yun responded. “But we can’t do anything to Ancestor’s body. I’m entering the tomb only because I want to know the truth.”

“I want to know the truth too.” The Disordered Empyrean Supreme’s lips curved up in a smile. Other than hell dao, nothing else mattered to her or raised her interest. Therefore, she rarely coveted anything. Even this instance was only a matter of satisfying her curiosity—she wanted to know why Ancestor had died and where Forebear had gone.

Those two were the earliest beings to appear in this part of existence. Its orders were derived from their actions and assembled into rules that gave rise to great dao, which further shaped the realm.

First there was Ancestor and Forebear, then there was heaven. When later generations used the terms ancestor and forefather, the honorifics were based off of the couple’s names.

Ancestor and Forebear were just the first batch of living beings. There were more than just them, but they were the strongest out of the first to come. And since they were dao partners, it was almost impossible to kill either one of them.

That was sufficient to raise the Disordered Empyrean Supreme’s curiosity and propel her to discover what’d happened in the distant past.

“How do you know all this?” Lu Yun suddenly asked.

“Because I am the Disordered Empyrean Supreme,” the woman smiled. “When you become an empyrean supreme, you will find that there are no longer any secrets beneath the heavens. You can see whatever you wish to know when you stand at those heights—other than what has been purposefully concealed by others.”

Matters such as the grand plan set up by Yun Yi and her family, Ancestor’s cause of death, and Forebear’s whereabouts were examples of knowledge purposefully kept out of sight.

“Yun Yi probably didn’t think of this possibility…” A small hint of pride flourished in Lu Yun’s heart. Yun Yi likely hadn’t foreseen that he’d explore Ancestor’s tomb. What would she do if she was still alive? The thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

“It’s a good thing I just broke through yesterday. We can go to Ancestor’s tomb and stretch our legs,” Lu Yun grinned.

“Broke through? To grand supreme? That fast?” The Disordered Empyrean Supreme jumped with surprise. It should’ve taken at least ten years, according to Lu Yun’s own calculations. But it’d only been three!

Three years to grand supreme?

A tribulation was also necessary to become a grand supreme, but there’d been no sign of a heavenly tribulation anywhere within fifty million kilometers of the tribe.

That was due to Lu Yun’s command over reincarnation. Everything underwent the cycle of reincarnation in his grasp. He’d sent the inconsequential tribulation through the cycle before it had a chance to fully manifest.

“I came back from Cardinal Sacred City with some nice things, so of course I quickly broke through.”

“And you want to explore the tomb with your primary body??” The Disordered Empyrean Supreme had thought that the young man would send his golden armored warriors with her, but it looked like he wanted to go in person!

“Those replicas are summons from a combat art. They’ll turn back into soybeans at special locations that negate combat arts, so we can’t rely on them. It’s better if I go. None of the local inhabitants will see through my true nature if there are no eyes of great dao around.”
