Necropolis Immortal

r>

There were different levels of heavenly lightning.
The kind that Lu Yun’s Thunder Palmstrike channeled was the weakest among them.
It was more than enough to kill regular immortals, but ineffective when facing a bloodcorpse as powerful as this one.

He could deliver great injuries again and again, but couldn’t disperse its crimson light.
The Sugato Sword had suppressed the bloodcorpse for at least a hundred thousand years, but the weapon merely prevented it from completing its transformation and was seemingly incapable of killing it.

Bloodcorpses were almost impossible to kill, and this particular one was a true peerless immortal, one step away from dao immortal! Unlike a peerless immortal with a sealed cultivation, a real peerless immortal could kill Lu Yun with a snap of its fingers.

The governor summoned divine lightning nine more times.
Every instance ripped open wounds and left patches of charred flesh on the bloodcorpse, but the creature continuously healed itself with a crimson light that looked like a sword aura.

Lu Yun huffed and puffed atop the Path of Ingress, his energy reserves running low.

“It’s not invincible as long as it hasn’t finished turning into a true bloodcorpse! I must refine the Sugato Sword to take it down! Only that sword energy can kill this monster!” He looked toward the weapon.
The Path of Ingress cut a shining path through the surging, crimson light of the bloodcorpse.
“If I can’t take it with me, I’ll just refine it from here!”

……

The immortals outside the city were dumbfounded.

Nine instances of divine lightning had slammed into the cavity in the ground and completely broken open the earth around it.
If Feinie hadn’t led the eighteen Lu immortals in protecting the city, it would’ve sunk underground.

No one knew what was happening in the tomb, and no one dared enter at the moment.
The battle underground was far too intense.
With their cultivations sealed, they wouldn’t even be Lu Yun’s match, let alone the giant zombie.

The enormous hand continued scrabbling in the dirt, almost breaking free of Skybearer.
Blood trickled down from the corner of Lu Qingyi’s mouth, but he clenched his jaw and kept the hand suppressed.

“Put your treasure away,” called out a lilting, ethereal voice.
“I will handle it.”

A girl dressed in grey robes slowly descended from the sky.
A trace of crimson light flickered in and out of existence within her pupils.

“You are….” Lu Qingyi looked at her with appreciation.

“Diexi, a zombie king nurtured by an ancient tomb,” she replied frankly.
“Some say I am an evil creature that will bring unceasing calamity to the world of immortals, but Lu Yun says I am an ordinary human, just like him.”

“Diexi, protector of the North Sea coast and bulwark against millions of monster spirits!” Lu Qingyi snapped to attention.
“Miss Deixi saved hundreds of millions in Dusk Province by heading off the invaders.
You are a major benefactor of Nephrite Major, not an evil creature!”

Diexi beamed widely at Lu Qingyi.
“Put the Skybearer Gates away.
Lu Yun says that everything in the world has its natural bane, and Skybearer happens to be my counter.
I will take care of the hand.”

Lu Qingyi bowed to the girl and withdrew the treasure.
As soon as the gates dissipated, the hand shot out and grabbed at the pagoda.

“I am a zombie king, the ruler of all undead!” Diexi howled to the sky.
“You are not a true bloodcorpse yet, so you must kneel to me!”

She opened her eyes to fix her gaze at a certain point in the distance.
Where her eyes passed, an ocean of blood emerged, with countless bodies floating in it.

Bam!

The ocean slammed into the arm.
