Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1648: The Sequence of Dao

Ruina was the center of Myriadsea World and its origin. More than one powerhouse had sought to occupy it and build a kingdom there, but they’d all failed. At one point, it’d been regarded as forbidden and out of bounds.

Ruina—the source of Myriadsea.

But when Dongfang Mo arrived in the world, he used the Immortal Myriadtree to occupy the land and construct a Ruina Immortal Nation. His appearance instantly became a thorn in everyone’s side.

Occupying Ruina didn’t necessarily mean that he was able to turn the world into one of sequence, but it was more than enough to inspire hatred. He’d done what everyone else couldn’t do. Thus, the other daos attacked immortal dao as soon as it took root. They killed immortal dao’s geniuses and fractured a great dao into numerous factions, creating internal turmoil.

However, it was impossible for them to destroy immortal dao. They could tear down the tree, but Ruina would quake from the destruction and all of the other great daos in the world would be ruined as well.

When the monster spirit elder had spoken of destroying Ruina Immortal Nation, it’d just been an empty threat. Despite that, the threat had fangs enough to be Dongfang Mo’s constant weakness. Today, he cast that aside and stabbed a blade into the weaknesses of others instead.

The elder had originally planned to use this opportunity to kill Dongfang Mo, but the latter had gone insane. Thus, the tiger spirit quickly gave up, yet Dongfang Mo still turned a deaf ear to his entreaties.

He cut into Immortal Myriadtree with chop after chop. Gradually, the tiger spirit shifted to physically blocking Dongfang Mo from hurting the tree, but he was sent flying with a surge of power.

……

Immortal Nation was under attack. A black shadow surrounded the kingdom and blazing demonic flames burned in the air. An enormous fist pounded the center of the nation, the central area in which the altar was located.

Lu Yun looked calmly at the black figure in the air.

“Why?! Why??” the demonic shadow howled. “Why didn’t that damned fool of the monster spirits hold Dongfang Mo back?!”

An outline of the Immortal Myriadtree waved above the altar, enveloping the structure and entire nation with its protection. No matter what the demon did, it didn’t shake Immortal Nation one iota.

The tree’s power extended to even this remote region?!

The Immortal Myriadtree had never fully displayed its might in all this time of Dongfang Mo residing on Myriadsea World. Thus, it came as a great shock that it would suddenly materialize and handily block the demon king’s attacks.

The demon king was the beholder of demonic dao and keeper of its sequence. Though demonic dao wasn’t one of the strongest in Myriadsea World, it was stronger than immortal dao. Naturally, its sequence was also far stronger.

“Is this the power of the Immortal Myriadtree??” The demonic king paused his attacks and looked at the growing tree beneath him with a brooding expression. He possessed four heads, eight arms, was eighteen meters tall, and commanded the four origin elements of earth, air, fire, and water.

He was stronger than Dongfang Mo, but despite being here in person to snuff out formula dao in its infancy, he wasn’t able to even shake it.

Lu Yun had completely recovered on the altar. One thousand and eighty seeds hovered around him, assembled in a massive formation. The Immortal Myriadtree absorbed the immortal dao’s strength, gradually becoming a new, mature tree.

The Immortal Myriadtree was the source of immortal dao. The emperor of the original Hongmeng had long seen that his realm would be devastated and thus seeded immortal dao in Myriadsea World as a bit of hope. He’d chosen immortal dao out of all other great daos, directing a world of sequence to be crafted for it and sent Fuxi to propagate it through the Hongmeng shards, mostly because of the Immortal Myriadtree.

Myriad!

Everything returns to the origin, everything comes again to the starting point. Everything stems from one starting point to refresh life anew!

Immortal dao was inclusive of everything and described the truth within this singular origin. It encompassed any great dao, rule, law, and order. Whether it was monster spirit, ghost, divine, shamanic, spirit, or martial dao, all would be replaced by immortal dao and become part of it. Just as immortal dao strengthened itself, it would also maintain the individualities of these daos at the same time.

The Immortal Myriadtree was the source of everything.

A new one was rooted in Lu Yun’s dantian and continuously took in the old tree’s core essence. The old one was being destroyed as they spoke. The new tree represented the new immortal dao, the one that Lu Yun had modified and incorporated formula dao, spirit dao, and all sorts of other great daos into.

The new Immortal Myriadtree was stronger than the old one and released the orders of inception, ethos, burgeon, creation, opposition, nirvana as it was born. Even the original emperor in the flesh wouldn’t be able to hurt Lu Yun now, to say nothing of a demonic king.

With his change in mindset, Dongfang Mo possessed the courage to cut off all avenues of retreat for himself and forge ahead, come hell or high water. Destroying immortal dao to raise a new one in its stead had been a thought he’d considered for a long time. When he finally took action, it wasn’t to elevate spirit dao, but to help Lu Yun establish a new immortal dao.

Thus, he destroyed the old Immortal Myriadtree to make way for a new one. Its emergence fundamentally changed immortal dao on Myriadtree World and the cultivation methods of the cultivators and immortals immediately shifted to what was prescribed in the new dao.

A world of sequence differed from the outside world—in the latter, changing a great dao required cultivators to walk the path of immortality again, lest they be eliminated by the new world order. In a world of sequence, any changes in the great dao were automatically reflected in the immortals and cultivators. New methods would blossom in their minds and their foundations changed.

Thus was a world of sequence. As a world of great dao, all cultivators were extremely close to their dao and thus blessed by their proximity.

“Demonic dao?” Fully healed, the light of intelligence sparkled in Lu Yun’s eyes. He operated formula dao to analyze the demonic in front of him. “It hasn’t evolved sequence yet! None of the daos in existence have their own world of sequence yet!”

He suddenly understood that the worlds of sequence everyone could access at the moment were based on laws such as time and space. Even Ah Zhi’s world of dreams was derived from the laws of dreams.

Rules and laws were objective existences, great daos were created by the living. Living beings could cultivate the daos of fire, water… but the sequences born of these daos were still derived from laws. These worlds of sequence existed to begin with—a very impartial and objective existence.

What life needed to do was to simulate these objective existences and create a world of sequence belonging to them. Myriadsea World was an unformed world of law that’d been chosen for this experiment.

“Not only that, but if a strong presence enters a fully formed world of law and creates the orders of dao, that world can also become one of sequence.” Lu Yun derived various facts as he looked at the demon in the air. “Worlds of sequence can be controlled to become a world for life, but laws and sequence can’t. I’d always thought that order was subjective, but now it looks like it’s another objective existence.”
