Necropolis Immortal

The spirit had manifested a physical body and gray, black, scarlet, and purple lights sparkled over it.
Dead spirits traveled in and out of its form.

“You’re the thing next on the hierarchy after the purple bale spirits.” A harsh light flashed through Lu Yun’s eyes, replacing the resignation from earlier.
A wrathful killing intent blossomed in his heart, the only thing on his mind now to kill the enemy in front of him.

He could be resigned and pity the other party when it came to immutable positions, but when it was down to the life or death of an enemy… Well, it was either their death or his.

Then, it better be your death.

Lu Yun summoned Quietus with a shake of his wrist.
Though the spirit in front of him was overtaken by endless malice, it was intelligent and hadn’t lost its ability for independent thought.

“This sword has never appeared in this realm before… Is it a newly born connate treasure?” Instead of being in human form, the spirit took the shape of the origin divine. 

It possessed four heads and eight arms, but its power didn’t come from the elements of earth, air, fire, and water.
Rather, it stemmed from the radiance of gray, black, scarlet, and purple that represented the four types of dead spirits.
Its four heads also followed the four different colors.

“Earth, air, fire, and water came after, you’re the true form of the origin divine!” Lu Yun suddenly understood what the origin divine was.
It wasn’t a creature of the world of immortals or even of the realm, it was something created by the chaos creatures based off of this spirit.

Those who could create another life form would be in the creator realm, which made the origin divine a pawn of a chaos creator.

The spirit refrained from extraneous small talk with Lu Yun; it released a tide of dead spirits from its body with a small shift of its body.
They split into four currents and pounced on Lu Yun. 

In the outside world, their colors denoted their strength.
But in front of the spirit, they were all as strong as the scarlet bale spirits.
Representing four different powers—gray of evil yin, black of death, scarlet of slaughter, and purple of destruction—they bore down on Lu Yun like four keen blades.

Boom!

A blazing sun of intersecting black and white suddenly rose over Lu Yun’s head.
Two vicious swords with intense killing intent materialized in the void and cut down on the spirit.

The blood demon! It’d suddenly appeared and made a move against the enemy.

“What are you doing out here?” Lu Yun relaxed from his stance and retreated beneath the blazing sun.

After the blood demon refined the sun of hellfire that Rearbow transformed into, he’d combined it with his Hadal Bonefire and the two swords.
The three treasures together made for greater might than before.

“That’s my food! If I can eat it, I might be able to revitalize my core essence!”

Strictly speaking, the blood demon was currently a weapon spirit.
He could at most be counted as a connate treasure that could take human from, one that could deploy a connate treasure’s strength. 

He wasn’t alive, which made him different from Situ Zhong.
Situ Zhong was one with his treasure, but the blood demon had first become the weapon spirit, then become one with its core essence, and finally become the treasure itself.
If he could devour this spirit and refine the dense resentment and malice inside of it, he could come back to life again!

The blood demon craved being a living being again, but since he was a weapon spirit, it couldn’t be done unless the connate treasure fell apart.
Hope bloomed anew in the form of the spirit of pure resentment in front of him!

If he could devour it and boost his core essence to incredible heights, he’d be able to break free of the shackles of a connate treasure!

Since he was now Lu Yun’s treasure spirit, he possessed a connection to Lu Yun.
This connection enabled him to walk straight out of hell without passing through the Gates of the Abyss.

Having understood the blood demon’s intentions, Lu Yun didn’t disapprove.
He sent nine karmic fruits into the blazing sun of black and white that held the blood demon’s core essence.
