Necropolis Immortal

ajor wouldn’t be able to withstand the shockwaves resulting from their clashes.

Mo Yi, Chen Xiao, Qing Buyi, and Lu Feng stayed their hands as well.
Creatures from the Blood Sea and powerhouses from the underworld were hidden in the surroundings.
Though they remained concealed, the quartet could still sense the existence of hostile entities.
Thus, the four remained firmly in place, deterring those beings from joining the fray.

Those of the Crimson and Purple Firmaments also remained on the sidelines, but the sword cauldron and bell had entered the battlefield, and were in turn met by the Skyturning Seal and Sugato Sword.

The Venerated Sacrosanct Demon Sovereign howled with challenge and roared into battle.
He’d fully refined the Skyturning Seal by now, and most importantly, his nascent spirit had returned to true existence after practicing Lu Yun’s nascent spirit observation method.
It’d become one with the Hadal Bonefire, making it so that the demon god would never be able to possess him anymore.

After his nascent spirit transmuted into Hadal Bonefire, his Hadal Bonefire Method reached heights never before seen and truly entered the realm of great perfection.
This was why he’d manifested in person to help Lu Yun.

A straightforward personage who wore his heart on a sleeve, the demon sovereign had been one who dared defy the primordial immortal emperor.
Unyielding and unwavering, he refused to capitulate even in death.
Instead, he’d formed an undying true spirit, a development facilitated by the immortal emperor.

It’d only been a difference of perspective between the demon sovereign and immortal emperor.

In his hands, the Skyturning Seal took the size of a towering mountain and stoutly blocked the sword bell.
As they weren’t in the Central World anymore, they were no longer subject to the immortal restriction.
The demon sovereign fully combusted his Hadal Bonefire, using for fuel the gleaming bones of his skeleton—every piece as pure as white jade.
Power exploded out of the seal under his fullest deployment.

Next to him, Yu Qinghun of the Green Firmament wielded the Sugato Sword.
He’d suffered fatal injuries in the world of the Emperor Sunflower and almost died.
Lu Yun had snapped his neck at the last second and destroyed his nascent spirit to preserve him as an Infernum, returning him to life through the Tome of Life and Death.
Infernum enjoyed closer relationships with Lu Yun than the golden-armored warriors summoned from the beans.

In Yu Qinghun’s hands, the Sugato Sword unleashed power that was stronger than any it’d ever displayed in Lu Yun or the demon sovereign’s hands.

“This Sugato Sword… is the Sword Pagoda! This was once the ultimate treasure of my Green Firmament countless aeons ago!” Yu Qinghun’s wide eyes stared at the sword and he unconsciously formed a strange hand seal.
Green light shimmered over the sword in response, as if something had awakened.

“The Sword Pagoda had died… then returned to life in master’s hands and birthed a new weapon spirit! No wonder it can cut down connate treasures! Sugato Sword, oh Sugato Sword, you don’t rank number one among all man made treasures, you’re the king of treasures!”

As he spread his arms wide open, the sword reconstructed itself from nine hundred ninety nine layers to a pagoda shimmering with hazy green light, one thousand and eighty layers tall.
It was thirty percent stronger than before, and its sword energy stuck close to Yu Qinghun.
With just a casual slash, the newest Infernum sent the sword cauldron flying backwards.

“Hahaha—!” Yu Qinghun threw his head back with laughter.
“Crimson Firmament, you marred our Sword Pagoda all those years ago! Today, I return an eye for an eye and destroy your Sword Cauldron!”

Whoosh!

A brilliant halo of bluish-gold radiance burst out of his body and melded into the Sugato Sword, honing its keen edge and coalescing its pagoda form out of thin air.
Picking up domineering momentum, it smashed right into the sword cauldron.
