Necropolis Immortal

neath Yuchi Tianhuang’s murderous glare.
“After I taught her the method of the Black Tortoise, she imparted it to the Dusk Phalanx’s formation, imbuing it with the soul of the divine beast.
It even transformed the image of the Black Tortoise into a real one.

“She doesn’t know who she is, does she?” the governor surmised.

Yuchi Tianhuang didn’t respond.

“Hahaha, the divine race betrayed the clans of the four cardinal directions! Your own kind is the reason for your people’s downfall.
You conceal your identity not because you’re afraid of the human immortals in the world, but because you fear the existing divines!

“Remember the Skandha Extinction Tomb?” Lu Yun took a step toward Yuchi Tianhuang to stare at the man squarely in the eyes.
“Empress Myrtlestar’s people aren’t the only ones cursed by the tomb, but also your tribe!”

The White Tiger descendant backed away, panic growing on his face.

“Not just your kind, but all four of the divine cardinal tribes! The curse will destroy your bloodlines!” Lu Yun advanced again.
“When you slipped into the Skandha Extinction Tomb, you were seeking a way to break the curse, weren’t you? Sadly for you, you didn’t know there were five tomb realms in addition to the five tombs, which were where the real curse was set up!

“The Skandha Extinction Tomb being a curse on a people, born from burying five generations of the same bloodline? The truth is so much worse.” Lu Yun scoffed.
“You should’ve headed to the tomb realm of the western tomb.
There, you’ll find the body of your great ancestor—the White Tiger Divine King.
He might be alive.
He might be dead.

“Regardless, the real curse will end your bloodline and even prevent your dead from reincarnating.
Your tribe will disappear from the world forever.
The best way to achieve this is to anchor the curse to your ancestor!”

Color drained from Yuchi Tianhuang’s face, turning the man almost translucent.

“Empress Myrtlestar and her people were merely burial goods for the four cardinal tribes, sacrificed for no reason in the making of the five tomb realms.”

Within Violetgrave, the dread zombie fell silent.
Meanwhile, Empress Myrtlestar’s expression clouded over as she listened in from within the Scroll of Shepherding Immortals.
Lu Yun was still within the range of her consciousness.

“How do you know all this?” Yuchi Tianhuang looked at Lu Yun with shocked disbelief.
Through the Divine Spymirror, he’d perceived that the Skandha Range of Dusk Province was the source of the curse against his kind.
That was why he’d come to the province.

The tomb in question, however, housed only Empress Myrtlestar’s people.
It seemed to have nothing to do with the divine race.
He’d thus departed from the tomb without learning anything.
But Lu Yun had enlightened him with the full truth.
The Skandha Extinction Tomb existed only to create the five tomb realms, where the four divine kings were buried.

“The four divine kings are merely your ancestors.
Their parents—the true Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—should be resting within the tomb realm of the central tomb.” Lu Yun didn’t answer Yuchi Tianhuang’s question.
It was the Sal Tree of Life and Death that’d recorded what he’d said just now.
It wasn’t sentient, but its body instinctively remembered the past.

It was also this tree that’d preserved a sliver of hope against the curse of the Skandha Tomb and its five tomb realms, allowing Yuchi Tianhuang to survive, and it’d even permitted the birth of Yuchi Hanxing.

What is the Dusk restriction protecting, that it appeared so suddenly a thousand years ago? Who is the dead of the ancient tomb, the one that fought Aoxue and Xuanxi? This Sword Barrow wouldn’t have appeared in Dusk Province for no good reason.

Lu Yun had a prickly feeling that he would discover a great secret in the Sword Barrow deep within Cloudwater Lake.

A secret regarding the Skandha Extinction Tomb and the Dusk restriction!
