Necropolis Immortal

Chapter 1463: Calamity

The Alchemist King was scared out of his wits—his poison pills could kill even ninth step kings! And yet, the bizarre young man in front of them completely ignored the terrifying poison and wanted to take them!

The Wild Formation King was also scrambling for a response. Feng Qi looked young, but he was ramming through the formation like a human-shaped treasure, disrupting the formation and breaking it up into multiple pieces with strength that belied his years.

“Is he really a living being? Why does my formation have no effect on him?? What kind of monster is he?!” Unable to spare a thought for anything else, the Wild Formation King bent his mind to manipulating his formation, trying to prevent Feng Qi from breaking it open entirely.

The king wouldn’t care if Feng Qi was the only creature in the formation. In fact, he’d be able to suppress the strange young man without even breaking a sweat. However, Lu Yun was also present inside!

The Immortal King carved formation glyphs in the air, sending them into the Wild Formation King’s work through the cracks resulting from Feng Qi’s pandemonium.

“He’s just true first level, so what if he’s on the right path?” sneered the eighth step king next to the Wild Formation and Alchemist Kings. He leapt into the air and dove at Feng Qi, followed closely by the seventh step kings.

“Die!!” Brilliant radiance burst out of the king’s sword and crashed down on Feng Qi. Bizarrely enough, the sword light wasn’t obstructed by the formation. It melded perfectly with the formation and poison.

“Fuck off!” Feng Qi was about to close his hand around the nearest poison pill. He flew into a rage at this sudden interference and delivered a casual backhand at the sword light.

He shuddered and flew backwards from the backlash, but so was the light shattered by his hand.

“So strong! He is indeed a cultivator on the proper path!” howled the eighth step king. As a king of the Immortal Region, he naturally knew the difference between the proper and deviated paths, and was aware of the ten divine nations.

He didn’t care about any of that as the proper cultivation paths and divine nations were all passing clouds to Immortal Region cultivators. They would become the masters of the realm once they seized the immortal dao. When they pierced through the wall around the Hongmeng and entered the fourth realm, they would enjoy lives of utmost freedom and joy.

“AHHHHHH!!” Feng Qi yelled with frustration. He regained his footing after flying out several hundred kilometers and leered at the eighth step king. “Not bad, not bad, but you’re a bit weaker than that kid Jin Naluo. Heh heh, your sword looks yummy too.” Feng Qi jumped up as he spoke, leaping onto the eighth step king like a wild animal.

His attacks didn’t follow any school of teaching and seemed completely at random, but somehow, there was a certain odd rhythm to the haphazardness that pulled everything together and made sense.

Immensely dismayed, the eighth step king retreated one hundred and fifty kilometers and stood with the seven seventh step kings. They formed a strange pattern and became one with the Wild Formation King’s work.

He was taken aback by Feng Qi’s capabilities and couldn’t face his opponent by himself anymore.

Boom!

The Wild Formation King’s work was collapsing in bits and pieces after Feng Qi’s unchecked exuberance. Now with Lu Yun’s formation glyphs infiltrating it, it was crumbling in stages.

“No, stop him!” A shocked Wild Formation discovered that Lu Yun was wresting control of the formation from him!

“Poison, rise!” Alchemist set his jaw and flung his hands open, completely deploying the one hundred and eight poison pills. The entire formation turned jade-green, nothing more than a poison formation now.

The Hongmeng qi around them was instantly corroded into nothing, leaving behind a vacuum inside the array. Not only that, but everything within one hundred million kilometers—including Azure Dragon City nearby—came within range of the dreadful poison.

……

“What is this?? Operate the defensive formation at full power!” Holding down the fort in Azure Dragon City, the Crippled Dragon King was scared out of his wits. The horrifying poisonous light was enough to destroy the entire city and turn the whole territory into a land of death!

Rumble—

Azure Dragon City shifted into action and the image of an enormous azure dragon suddenly appeared in the skies over the city. It hovered to and fro over the metropolis, warding off the poison.

But after a few breaths, it keened with sorrow and disintegrated in the air. With nothing to stop it, the dreadful light rained down on the city’s great formation and ate away at the defensive barrier.

More than half of the attackers outside of Azure Dragon City had already died from the poison. The survivors were grievously injured and fled with incredible haste.

“The protective guardian spirit of the city is dead… we’re doomed…” Despair filled Crippled Dragon as he watched the poison drift into the city. Azure Dragon City was surrounded, there was nowhere for its citizens to run to.

“Roar!!” A furious snarl rang out from the Azure Dragon Lake and a towering wave reared up from the waters, smashing into the horrific light of poison.

Rumble!

Jade-green thunder and lightning raged in the void—a byproduct of the frothing waters connecting with the poison.

The lightning swept through the void, prowling for any light released by the poison formation. It ate whatever it encountered and slowly defused the city’s crisis. Despite that, half of the city had been corroded by the poison and more than a hundred million cultivators and kings had disintegrated to it.

……

“Alchemist King, you deserve death!!” Lu Yun screamed as he read the sudden influx of death information outside the formation. He hadn’t thought that the king would abruptly release all of the pills’ power to attack him. The one hundred and eight pills were far more horrific than he’d thought!

Those things shouldn’t exist in the world at all!

“I deserve death? Heh heh heh, the world will know peace again if you die!” Alchemist cackled eerily, his hair and skin also green. He seemed to be demonizing in front of their very eyes—turning into a demonic poison king!

Instead of reeling himself in after causing such devastation, he continued to release the power from the pills. Terrified, the Wild Formation King and others quickly took shelter next to them to avoid dying to the poison.

The great formation was breaking free of the king’s control. The poison seemed to be coming alive as it wrested control from the Wild Formation King. Poisonous lightning still stabbed into the air, but they began drifting toward the king.

Lu Yun’s eyes turned golden and shimmering Karmic Tree materialized over his head. A tiny figure stood on its bough.

Xingzi.

Yooo it\'s been so long since we\'ve seen one of the envoys!!

Who wants to bet Alchemist has truly gone insane?
