Chapter 1788: Scam

Chapter 1788: Scam

“Jiangchen Xie!” Lu Yun’s eyes widened when he saw who was blocking Hongjun.

Jiangchen Xie was Jiang Chen’s descendent and the greatest genius of the Corpse Refiners in the world of immortals. However, Jiang Chen had taken possession of his own bloodline and erased the latter in the process. Jiangchen Xie’s soul should now be nothing more than empty motes on the wind.

What was he doing here and how was he rebuffing Hongjun???re?????oν??.??m

Lu Yun stared fixedly at Jiangchen Xie, trying to glean some clues from him. However, formula dao came back with only pure blankness for the newcomer. He was a zombie, an incredibly mammoth zombie, but his face was the Jiangchen Xie that they all knew. He seemed extremely sinister and wafted black smoke with all of his gestures, like he’d previously been burned with something.

Lu Yun didn’t dare treat their opponent with anything but solemn gravity. Gray abyssal hellfire rose from his body. The fires of the Abyssal Hell were the bane of zombies. They could consume all bodies, including the undead.

“Heh heh heh, no need to be so worried, Lu Yun. I’m here to save you.” Jiangchen Xie’s leer only served to deepen his sense of eeriness. However, there was no malice in his emotions, so Lu Yun believed him.

Hongjun’s brows furrowed slightly and his purple sword light slowly condensed into a tangible, glowing shortsword. This was his personal weapon, one that he’d never displayed before others.

“I am Jiang Chen’s descendant, but he seized my body and scattered my soul just because he wanted to be reborn in the world of immortals. I can never find release or be reincarnated, so I want revenge! I will destroy everything that is Jiang Chen!” The smoke emitting from him grew denser. “Three hundred and sixty-five lives! He killed me three hundred and sixty-five times!! The resentment from each time collected here and formed what you see now. I am neither a living being nor a zombie. I am resentment manifest!!”

Bloody tears trickled out of his eyes. He burned with fury, hatred, and bitterness that his own ancestor had lured him in to kill him! Thus, he’d materialized in this form with the aid of a certain existence.

“Three hundred and sixty-five lives? I’ve been here three hundred and sixty-five times before, but I’ve never seen you,” Hongjun remarked.

“It’s because you have Lu Yun with you this time. That’s why you’re meeting now.” Another figure walked up from the depths of the cavern. It was a red-haired youth wearing long robes that looked like they were made of black smoke.

“Yin Jiuying,” Lu Yun immediately identified. When his Xing Chen replica sought to kill Jiang Chen in the world of immortals, it’d been Yin Jiuying who stopped him. The latter’s true form was the connate divine beast jiuying and he’d been worshiped as a divine spirit in the Primordial Era. To think that he’d be here as well!

He was a guardian of the Corpse Refiners and had established the sect with Jiang Chen in the world of immortals.

“I didn’t think you’d remember me,” Yin Jiuying smiled faintly. He was a normal being, neither ghost nor zombie. What was most surprising was the presence of immortal dao on him.

Yin Jiuying was a cultivator of the immortal dao, and not the one of the Corpse Refiners, but pure immortal dao!

“Are you the one who saved Jiangchen Xie and concentrated his resentment here?” Hongjun connected some dots. He’d taken note of Yin Jiuying in the great wilderness, but hadn’t paid much attention to the man. Yin Jiuying had been a very ordinary person in countless reincarnation cycles and there was nothing noteworthy about him.

It was now that Hongjun realized how very wrong he was.

The appearance of anomalies and the termination of the reincarnation cycles was when these hidden characters would reveal themselves. They’d indifferently watched Hongjun and Jiang Chen battle in the past, staying on the sidelines even when powerhouses of the chief worlds were involved. They busily made their arrangements and readied their plans for the arrival of this pivotal moment.

“Correct,” Yin Jiuying nodded. “The heavens do not tolerate Jiang Chen for possessing his own descendant and it was not yet time for Jiangchen Xie to die. Thus, I used corpse dao as a medium to send him here, all for this moment!”

“You knew I would come? Lu Yun raised a brow.

“It didn’t matter who came.” Yin Jiuying first nodded, then shook his head. “You’ll have to destroy the corpse demon beneath us if you want to end the cycles. It’s the source of the endless loops, the power and energy of the reincarnation system.”

“Huh?” Lu Yun blinked and looked at Hongjun with a startled look. The other was likewise nonplussed. “You mean… the corpse demon isn’t the one who killed the god of Mount Tai and created the Land of Reincarnation?”

Yin Jiuying snorted and looked at Hongjun with amusement. “There are certain truths out there that you probably wouldn’t believe if you heard them. The corpse demon is the person you speak of, but he didn’t kill the mountain god. The mountain god killed him and buried him here, thus beginning the Land of Reincarnation.

“The creator of this land and the infinite loops is the god of Mount Tai!”

The color drained from Hongjun’s face.

“The mountain god has been using you and your friends all this time. He stops at nothing in his quest for hell dao. You can hardly imagine the lengths he went to and effort he expended to locate the sixth hell. The whole purpose of this land is for the Hell of Order to appear!” Yin Jiuying sighed. “Now that it has, there is no point for the land to exist any further.

“If you go down there right now, Lu Yun, the corpse demon will kill you and the god of Mount Tai will strip you of everything that you are.”

Hongjun fell silent; Lu Yun remained quiet as well.

A strange light glittered in Jiangchen Xie’s eyes. While the group talked, he kept his eyes fixed upward to where Jiang Chen fought Leize and the others.

“Is the truth too much to bear? The land that you have safeguarded through countless cycles of reincarnation is a scam. It is a scam that the god of Mount Tai crafted to satisfy his selfish desires.” There was no pity in Yin Jiuying’s eyes, his expression was the same as Hongjun’s. He’d been close friends with the mountain god as well and had come here on account of his old friend’s dying wish.

Yin Jiuying had collaborated with Jiang Chen and fortified the foundations of corpse dao in order to destroy everything that Jiang Chen owned. After he discovered the cavern, Yin Jiuying switched his dao to immortal dao so he could practice Lu Yun’s formula dao. The wondrous dao revealed a vast web of cause and effect to him.

He’d come to these conclusions only in this cycle. In the previous ones, he’d simply thought well of Jiangchen Xie and didn’t want him to die in such a manner. Who would’ve thought that a stray moment of kindness would allow him to see the truth of everything?

“But the god of Mount Tai did die!” Hongjun forced out a protest.

“How would you believe him if he didn’t die? He even forfeited his true spirit, soul, and seal to become Tianqi, but his will never truly perished. He’s been keeping his plans going all along!

“Who do you think brought the darkness that suddenly appeared in the land? Not even the Moran powerhouse, the one who cultivates dark dao, can manage that feat! Only hell dao can summon the darkness!

“That land of darkness has now become the Hell of Order.”
