Chapter 1733
Chapter 1733: Qing Buyi
“The unrest is definitely not from those guys in the Abyssal Tomb!” Lu Yun paused when he saw the claw and immediately looked to the palace in the void.
Creatures of the darkness were no savages that guzzled blood and tore into flesh. They possessed thought and intelligence of their own. This group of endarkened was working with beings of the outside realm to devour the fourth realm together.
Once they succeeded, the fourth realm would be a realm of darkness and those from outside would have their world of sequence. As such, there was no conflict of interest between the two sides and they could neatly work together.
The land of darkness was the darkness of the entire Land of Reincarnation. The worlds of light had been in a constant state of reincarnation, but the world of darkness had yet to go through a single cycle.
It was a chaotic territory that churned up any order or rule that was not the order of opposition or the dao of darkness. Outside beings could evade the cycle in the Land of Reincarnation through entering the darkness. But if they wished to enter the worlds of light, they needed to locate a proper identity for themselves in an exceedingly short period of time so they could retain their memories. Only then would they join the cycle of reincarnation with full awareness of their actions.
Those in the Abyssal Tomb that were from the outside realm plainly lacked the appropriate identities. Thus, the only way they could be in the Land of Reincarnation was to cooperate with the creatures of the darkness.
Cooperate, not enslave!
Running counter to that idea was a fearless attack on Lu Yun from an expert of the darkness. This was far from a rational move—which meant that they’d been enslaved by something stronger! Not even the twentieth level sequence zombie of the Corpse Refiners could accomplish a deed of that caliber!
Highly alarmed, Lu Yun commanded the ship to erupt with disordered hellfire and burn the claw to a crisp. He then steered the ship to ram the palace.
“Don’t!” Moran Dongning shrieked from the Disordered Hell. It traveled through the hell’s walls and into Lu Yun’s ears. He could see the terror in her voice.
“Esteemed Nebula is an existence beyond sequence! Don’t antagonize him, you’ll die!!” She spoke rapidly and caused Lu Yun to subconsciously come to a stop.
“An existence beyond sequence??” he gasped. He didn’t know how many levels of sequence there were, but anything beyond it would be an ultimate sovereign in the outside realm. It was too strong for him to fathom.
“What’s someone like that doing here?” He took a few steps back and stared fixedly at the golden figure grappling with Violetgrave.
“That’s Esteemed Nebula and his dao palace… He probably accessed the Land of Reincarnation through his dao palace,” Moran Dongning murmured.
Rather than being his prisoner, she was in the Disordered Hell because she wanted to be. She’d had enough of the endless loops and didn’t want to go home either. Unlike Ao Qin and Chu Xingran, there was something at home that she didn’t want to face.
Thus, Moran Dongning could come and go from the Disordered Hell as she pleased and also observe everything happening outside. She panicked when she saw the dao palace—an existence beyond sequence had come to the Land of Reincarnation!
Esteemed Nebula was an incomparably terrifying powerhouse! Only someone of his level would think of sending their will into this land through their dao palace.
“Dao palace?!” Lu Yun’s eyes widened. “Dao palace??”
“Yes, dao palace.” Moran Dongning knew what he wanted to say. “You have one too, six of them, in fact. Those six were left by six powerhouses beyond sequence, but the palaces were broken and retain just a little of their core essence. They lost a lot of their abilities when later generations reconstructed them.”
Lu Yun displayed the six dao palaces with a flip of his hand. The six represented the six orders of the highest degree, and the azure dragon ancestor god had once said that six supremes had left them behind in the chaos. All of them had been potentates and died with the Fire Virtue Potentate. It appeared to be very likely that they’d been the ones to refashion the core essence of the dao palaces.
As for how the dao palaces appeared in the Land of Reincarnation to begin with—no one knew.
Lu Yun found himself in a quandary. The maddened tide of darkness wouldn’t retreat so long as the Esteemed Nebula was present. In fact, more of the endless hordes would convene on this spot. All of their heavyweights seemed to be completely crazy. They constantly reached for Lu Yun to drag him into the darkness despite their comrades being burnt to ash.
“Screw it, it doesn’t matter how many things from the dark I kill if that palace is up there!” Lu Yun set his jaw and steered the ship toward the palace again.
Color drained from Moran Dongning’s face, but she didn’t leave the Disordered Hell. She stared intently at the Esteemed Nebula, preparing herself for something.
“Long time no see, Esteemed Nebula!” A somewhat ordinary voice rang out in front of Lu Yun the second he was about to close in on the palace. An army of sequence chains stretched out of the void and churned toward the dao palace. Violetgrave sighed with relief at the sight and quickly backed away.
She was starting to lose the fight. Only a trace of the Esteemed Nebula’s will was present, but he was invincible as long as the Golden Dao Palace remained. It was like fighting a piece of undying molasses and it was tiring her out. She was also too weak to affect the palace itself.
The golden palace trembled and rebuffed the chains. Meanwhile, Esteemed Nebula warily regarded the sudden appearance of another person.
“You are…” He frowned, finding the man very familiar, but different to the one in his memories. The situation would be very complicated if it was that person.
“Tsk tsk tsk.” The newcomer seemed to be twenty-four years old, a man of strapping physique and handsome features. He smirked at the manifestation of Esteemed Nebula’s will. “It looks like someone of your eminence is too busy to remember many things. You’ve forgotten me so quickly!”
“Qing Buyi!” Esteemed Nebula finally called out. “Just you? Where’s Chen Xiao?”
“Do you think you’d have the chance to talk to me like this if he was here?” Qing Buyi chortled. “The Land of Reincarnation has its own rules. Go back to wherever you came from and we’ll continue on our merry, separate ways. If you dare cause any more trouble…” He bared his teeth. “I can ensure your golden palace becomes your sparkling, dazzling coffin even without Chen Xiao here!”
