Necropolis Immortal

ne of Sol Truefire and one of hellfire.
The two of you won’t meet with any danger out there if you manifest with those flames.” Violetgrave gently batted her forehead and fell silent.

Lu Yun and Qing Yu smiled at each other, then sent their doubles through the World Gates into the vast space.
When they looked back at their world, they saw the planet itself and a faint cocoon of light around it.
That was the inner cosmos of the world of immortals, of which the World Gates stood at its highest point to separate the inner and outer cosmos.

Dense tides of yin spirits drifted aimlessly through space, devouring everything they sensed in front of them, including themselves.
A massive horde of scarlet bale spirits were gathered outside the gates.
It drew back and rammed against the indestructible World Gates again and again.

Radiance as pure as white jade sparked over the gates and illuminated space.
It looked comparably sacred and was inscribed with profound runes of the immortal dao.
However, fresh blood dyed these pristine gates.

Lu Yun didn’t know whose blood it was, either.

Inexhaustible numbers of dead spirits sensed Lu Yun and Qing Yu the moment they appeared, surging in their direction like sharks scenting blood.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

One golden and one black flame ignited in space, sending the spirits scattering in disarray with ghastly shrieks.

“What a pity that only hellfire and Sol Truefire can scare them off,” Qing Yu lamented.
Even connate li fire didn’t have such qualities.
If it burned in this part of space, the dead spirits would immediately put it out.
Only Lu Yun and Qing Yu could perfectly control the flames that the spirits were afraid of.

“There’s no time to be lost, let’s go find the two dao palaces!” Lu Yun could sense a ponderous presence slowly rising from the depths of space.
It would seem that a terrifying giant creature slept in the cosmos, protecting the yin spirits here.

If it awoke from slumber, it would instantly erase Lu Yun and Qing Yu’s projected doubles.

“Over there!” Qing Yu pointed in a certain direction after some calculations.

“Let’s go!” Lu Yun deployed the Boundless Step and traveled five hundred thousand kilometers with one step.

An enormous golden palace appeared in front of them after an hour—the dao palace! This was one of the palaces located in the cosmos.

“There are chaos creatures inside, but no empyrean realm humans!” Qing Yu’s eyes lit up.

When Lu Yun had captured the empyrean humans from the second dao palace, they’d self-detonated when they realized they were prisoners.
At the time, Lu Yun couldn’t be bothered to use a death art to resurrect these traitors.

The palace in front of them was staffed with neither chaos beasts or empyrean human masters.
Plainly, the chaos creatures felt this territory to be absolutely safe, that no immortal would dare bring trouble to them here.

“Alright!” Lu Yun smiled.
“Stay here and keep track of these coordinates for me.
I’ll turn into a Size Manipulation talisman formation and claim this palace!”

No ripples of existence traveled from their doubles, thanks to the properties of hellfire.
They were solidly concealed in the cosmic deep.
Lu Yun’s projection soundlessly made its way to the dao palace, then used Shapeshifting to turn himself into a Size Manipulation talisman formation!

Puff!

The dao palace as large as a star immediately turned into a dust particle and vanished from space.
