Chapter 1998 – Yun Yi Is Dead

Given the various signs at hand, it looked like Fuxi permitting his five senses to manifest, become independent entities, and travel to the tomb with the Scroll of Shepherding Immortals were all within Yun Yi’s calculations.

Shu Yun had just broken free of his seal, so he didn’t have time to set up so many plots. The heavenly emperor had been trapped in the golden bridge of heaven and earth in all of recent history, so he lacked the ability to create so many contingencies. The only one who could lay all of these plans was Yun Yi.

Shu Yan and the primordial heavenly emperor had set up the road for her in the Primordial Era; everything that followed after was her design. Far off the World of Immortals, even Fuxi felt the back of his neck crawling with horror.

“Out with it, what do you guys want to do?” Lu Yun sighed and accepted the Imperial Seal.

He couldn’t resist.

He didn’t even know how to, much less what could be done to break Yun Yi’s schemes. He’d tried numerous times after entering the tomb, seeking to remove himself from the situation if not shatter the setup entirely. Even if he wasn’t one of the players at the table, he needed to be an impartial bystander and wholly uninvolved.

But when the Imperial Seal appeared, he understood that he was still caught in the thick of things.

How was he willing to accept his fate like this though?! He would have answers for his questions, even though he took the Imperial Seal. If they denied him even this satisfaction, he would strongly consider blowing everything up to the high heavens.

“Yun Yi also sent me to make some explanations,” Qiu Feishan smiled ruefully when she saw the group’s reaction. She understood what was going on through their minds. “She expended her life for the sake of this plot, so what of it if she wins?”

“Huh?” Daoist Ingress raised an eyebrow. “Yun Yi’s dead?”

“She is essentially dead,” Qiu Feishan nodded. “She wanted to make the trip herself, but only her primary body is alive now. Everything else is dead.

“She took everything into account for this perfect scheme, even her father and grandfather are unwitting pawns. They think they’re the hand behind the shadows and the ones in control, but they are just pieces to be placed according to her desires.

“The only drawback is that she needs to pay the price of her life,” Qiu Feishan paused and then sighed. “Maybe there is no perfect plan in the world. Maybe her death is needed for perfection to be achieved.”

“Isn’t her body sealing the fissure between order and disorder? Why would she die?” Lu Yun fixated on this new revelation. For some reason, unease agitated in his heart. Yun Yi used her life to set up this plot? Even the heavenly emperor and Shu Yan were pawns? What was the meaning for all of this if she died?

Just to perfect a scheme?

Then why make it in the first place? Was her ultimate goal to help the tainted Jade Record of Creation take form? The one that even Hongjun found his hands tied for? Or was it to resurrect the spirit entity in the treasure?

What was the spirit entity? What was Yun Yi’s final goal?

Lu Yun’s brain threatened to explode; formula dao was no closer to an answer than him. He was waiting for Qiu Feishan to reveal the truth. He’d also vaguely guessed that the Imperial Seal in his hand was the key to completing Yun Yi’s plans.

“She sacrificed herself to an unknown existence through the mother altar in the World of Immortals. Only after receiving that unknown power could she set things into motion. I haven’t an inkling of who the altar made sacrifices to.” Qiu Feishan spread her hands out helplessly. “Yun Yi sealed herself at the boundary of order and disorder not to suppress anything, but to place herself closer to the unknown existence.”

Lu Yun and Daoist Ingress looked at each other.

“Isn’t the mother altar God’s ultimate treasure? Why would he lend it to Yun Yi?” Daoist Ingress couldn’t help a frown, then heaved a sigh. “Well, looks like God is worse off than us. She’s toying with him and he doesn’t even know it.”

He was certain that God would never call Yun Yi his friend, but the latter was able to use the mother altar. Plainly, Yun Yi’s machinations targeted God as well.

The mother altar!

The Xuan Yuan Tomb!

It wasn’t just the mother altar, but also the five child altars of the five elements. They were also firmly in Yun Yi’s grasp.

Sacrificial worship abounded in the world of immortals—they were a common method used for an exchange of power. Soul sacrifices were a particular evil form of sacrifices. When Lu Yun first arrived in the world of immortals, he’d nearly become a sacrifice to an unknown existence himself.

No one knew where these methods originated from or who granted them power. Lu Yun had thought that it was God’s invention, but now it seemed that while God was the originator of the method, Yun Yi was the one they sacrificed to and the source of the power they obtained.

All sacrifices made their way to Yun Yi. After collecting them for countless loops of reincarnation, she passed them and herself on to the unknown existence.

……

“But Yun Yi isn’t evil,” Qiu Feishan added. “That she’s willing to sacrifice herself to complete this matter means that this plot was never for her benefit.

“Beings that die in a sacrifice cannot be resurrected, not unless they were sacrificed in a Land of Reincarnation. Only with that special condition can they be reborn. She has already sacrificed herself. Although she left a trace of her will behind, it is only because she wants to see the end result of her plans.”

Daoist Ingress sheathed his sword. His replica and primary body employed formula dao at the same time—Yun Yi’s life force was indeed nowhere to be found.

Perhaps her will still lingered, but she was dead.

“So tell us, what does she want to do?” He frowned. He didn’t care about Yun Yi’s condition, he was only interested in what she wanted to do.

“I don’t know,” Qiu Feishan shook her head. “She mentioned before her death that all necessary arrangements have been made. The rest is up to your natural courses of action.”

“Natural course of action?” Lu Yun laughed ruefully. “I feel like I’m a bug caught in a massive spider web and that no matter what I do, I can’t escape her grasp.

“Forget it, this isn’t something to get hung up on since she’s dead. What did you just say? That these guys can eat the other four divine spirits of the organs?”

He shook his head and changed the subject. Yun Yi was dead and the only one who knew the truth. It was likely that even the heavenly emperor and Shu Yan wouldn’t know the full extent of her intentions before all was revealed.

Perhaps they had been completing another plot before; it was now Yun Yi’s world.

“Yes,” Qiu Feishan nodded. “But from now on, the Imperial Seal is your treasure, just as it was in previous iterations of the Land of Reincarnation. This seal is your personal treasure.”
