Chapter 1567: Herding Zombies

“Your master sent you here for the creation seed and mine sent me for what’s buried in this tomb,” Brightheart suddenly sighed. “I didn’t want to come, but I was somehow at the right place at the wrong time and ended up in here.”

“Could you tell early on that the one behind the tumors is here for that item as well?” Xing Wuliang asked when he got over his shock.

“Yes.” Brightheart nodded. “The plotter is stronger than my master, so my master has given up on this place.”

“Has he really?” Jian Juexian asked suspiciously.

“Only someone who has opened the doors to sequence can lure you, the master of the immortal end dao of Ingress Sword Island, into a layout. My master cannot afford to provoke someone like that,” Brightheart admitted candidly.

“So you saw through my identity a long time ago?” Jian Juexian’s eyes narrowed warningly.

“If that wasn’t the case, why would my master have given up?” Brightheart nodded at Xing Wuliang. “His master’s also given up.”

Jian Juexian’s expression flickered darkly and he subconsciously glanced at Lu Yun. The two kids in front of them didn’t seem to know their companion’s true identity. He was also a Nihil World Sovereign, one that could release his full power in the tomb!

Though the Brightheart World King—or her master, rather—had seen through Jian Juexian’s true self, they hadn’t seen through Lu Yun’s.

Unbidden, the hairs on the back of his neck rose with horror. He couldn’t see through Lu Yun either. In Jian Juexian’s eyes, Lu Yun was just a true void cultivator. If it wasn’t for the young man displaying the strength of a Nihil World Sovereign and utilizing a pair of hammers to activate sequence, Jian Juexian would’ve never guessed the truth about him.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Lu Yun didn’t know what Jian Juexian was thinking, but he could sense a gaze so terrified that it almost physically pierced him.

“Where did you two meet this Feng Feifan?” Jian Juexian transmitted a hasty question to Xing Wuliang. He now suspected Lu Yun, that he was a transformed yin spirit from the tomb.

“Outside the Tomb of the Hallowed Emperor, what of it?” Xing Wuliang answered out loud, then quickly explained when he realized the motive behind the question, “When I met junior brother Feng, he was knowledgeable in supplemental dao, but not skilled in it. He didn’t even have methods to cultivate in supplemental dao. He possesses his current soul force only after I passed on the Three Thousand Soul Daos and gave him a Profound Nineroot.”

Now that Xing Wuliang knew Jian Juexian’s identity, he treated the latter with nothing but respect. Jian Juexian breathed out with relief upon hearing how the two met Lu Yun.

“Then he’s not a yin spirit from the tomb.”

“Definitely not.”

“What? You suspect junior brother Feng to be a disguised yin spirit??”

“Yes! He’s so uncanny…”

“That’s impossible!”

……

“What’s going on with you three?” Lu Yun asked oddly when he read the expressions on the other three’s faces. He couldn’t be bothered to eavesdrop on their conversation.

“Nothing.” Jian Juexian caressed his new sword. With Immortal’s End in hand, he wasn’t afraid of anything. Plus, Feng Feifan was most likely not a yin spirit in the tomb and certainly not the horrifying hand directing everything behind the scenes.

“If you guys aren’t going to go, then I’ll go take a look.” Those three were becoming increasingly weirder to Lu Yun. He retracted the world from Horizon’s Edge, returned the treasure to the form of a cube, and threw it to Xing Wuliang.

The man had broken out of the trap thanks to Jian Juexian’s keen sword edge, but Lu Yun was still caught in it.

“You be careful.” Jian Juexian nodded, dismissing the notion of further exploring this strange tomb.

Xing Wuliang and Brightheart also had no intention of proceeding further. They weren’t the first batch of people here, perhaps there were others ahead of them who were caught in the same trap.

The headless corpses on the ground were still present and remained unmoving. Lu Yun swept his gaze over them and took out a bell.

Tinkle.

The bell rang crisply and commanded the bodies to rise and amble forward.

“You…” Jian Juexian’s eyes widened and he stared incredulously at Lu Yun. Manipulating corpses? What kind of method was that?

“The dao of herding corpses!” Xing Wuliang identified with shock. “Legend has it that there is a terrible sect called the Corpse Refiners in an unknown part of the Boundless Planes. They can turn corpses into battle zombies and wield a great dao of herding corpses. They can compel zombies to do their bidding…

“Are you a Corpse Refiner, junior brother?”

The Boundless Planes were so vast that no one could fully explore it. Thus, they divided the realm into the known and unknown. When Jian Juexian made a circle with his fingers, that’d included countless unknown spots. They were unknown, undeveloped, and unexplored. Everything about them was unknown and all was a mystery—such as the Corpse Refiners Xing Wuliang had just mentioned.

“Corpse Refiners…” Lu Yun raised a brow. There were Corpse Refiners in the world of immortals as well! Those were now a legitimate path under the immortal dao and the sect was in charge of Truespirit Major, one of the nine majors of the world of immortals.

The technique he was using came from them, and he’d never imagined that there would also be a Corpse Refiners in the fourth realm! So they’re based in an unknown spot?

Lu Yun didn’t know where the Corpse Refiners of the world of immortals originated from and he didn’t know their secrets. He’d never conquered the entire world to hold in the palm of his hand; he didn’t even completely eliminate those who’d once opposed him.

He’d only set everything back to its proper path, a normal path, and let the struggles between good and evil, different perspectives, and different motives continue as they would. He was removed and independent from it all.

That was how things were in the world of immortals, chaos, and Hongmeng.

Now that he heard the Corpse Refiners name again, his hackles rose. He’d thought that this sect didn’t have the right to be his enemy any longer.

“You know, I never once saw them in the thirty-three cycles. Fucking hell, I was too small to see them!” he grumbled and vigorously rang the bell, sending the corpses forward.

“I’m not a Corpse Refiner, I got this technique from a rival. He was probably one of them,” Lu Yun offered after some thought. He wasn’t lying, the Corpse Refiners in the world of immortals was indeed his rival.

“Do you know Ye Guangxiong?” Jian Juexian suddenly asked.

“Ye—what?” Lu Yun blinked.

“Ye Guangxiong,” Jian Juexian repeated.

“Never heard of him… is he a Nihil World Sovereign too?” Lu Yun transmitted back.

Jian Juexian didn’t answer him.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Explosions rang from the front as the moving corpses mysteriously detonated one after another.
