Necropolis Immortal

The sun, pale white, was slowly setting from the west.

It was another nightfall.

Things that resembled corpses and ghosts, as well as decaying flesh of all living beings, appeared from all directions like cockroaches, swarming towards the ruined ancient city.

This city, which should have been magnificent and majestic, was like a small boat in a storm, drifting and wavering.

The only remaining large formation was silently lit up, quietly confronting the endless monsters.

The formation was already riddled with holes, and countless creatures gathered together to plug the gap in the formation with their own flesh and blood.

It was another night of despair.

......

In the morning, a pale sunrise rises without any vigor.

The monsters that had ravaged the night receded into the tide.

Heavy carts loaded with broken corpses slowly drove out of the ancient city, dropping the bodies into a large pit directly in front of the city.

Black kerosene was poured into the pit.

Rolling black smoke soared into the air, rendering the already grey world even darker.

Corpses killed by monsters had to be burned, or else they would undergo necrophilia and turn into monsters.

Lu Yun sat on a large rock outside the city, he had crawled out from this mass grave in front of him ...... only a little bit short of being killed.

At this time, his eyes were dull and he had no life in him, just like a human sculpture.

The people around him woodenly walked by his side, no one cared about his existence.

In this side of the world ...... like Lu Yun, there were too many walking corpses.

In this strange and unknown world, Lu Yun knew nothing and had nothing.

He didn't even know why he was here.

In his body, it was empty, nothing but a body riddled with blood and flesh.

The Heavenly Book of Life and Death was nowhere to be found, the power of reincarnation had dissipated, and the power of civilization had likewise dissipated.

At this time, Lu Yun was a mortal ...... worse than a mortal waste.

One more monster attack, and Lu Yun would be buried under the monster's giant mouth filled with rotten breath.

"Is God dead?"

Lu Yun coughed softly and he murmured.

"God? God is long dead."

Then suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice sounded in his ears.

When Lu Yun looked up woodenly, he saw a wisp of an agile figure standing in front of him.

It was a young girl dressed in green, and she stood in front of Lu Yun, allowing Lu Yun to see a touch of long-lost anger.

Yesterday, Lu Yun had been sitting here since he crawled out of the mass grave, and if it wasn't for this young girl taking care of him, about last night when the monsters attacked the city, Lu Yun would have been torn to pieces.

At this point, Lu Yun hadn't lost his confidence, nor had he lost his faith, even if he had nothing to lose, as a strong man who had undergone a thousand hammers and countless trials and tribulations to reach the pinnacle of one side of the world, he wouldn't be depressed.

Even if he is even more desperate ...... Lu Yun is still Lu Yun.

He was just ...... blinded by the explosion.

The God's self-destruction completely destroyed the entire Void God Temple ...... in that side of nothingness, and there was no more Void God Temple.

It was simply a miracle that Lu Yun was not blown up.

And at this time, Lu Yun's head had been buzzing. He couldn't do anything other than sit here.

The sound of self-talk from earlier was the only manifestation of his recovery of his ability to think and his ability to speak.

"Oh."

Lu Yun's head was still a little unclear, and he nodded silently.

"God is the hope of all living beings, and everyone is waiting for God to resurrect and end this world of despair."

The green-clothed girl looked at Lu Yun's expression and said very seriously, "But God, he should really be dead."

"Died in the years, everyone has forgotten him ...... Why do you still remember him?"

"Don't you remember God too?"

Lu Yun said nervously.

"......"

The young girl shook her head, she looked deeply at Lu Yun, then turned around and left.

Iris was the guardian goddess of Mirror State City, and the fact that Mirror State City still existed and was not annihilated by monsters was Iris' existence.

Iris Yi was also one of the few cultivators in Mirror State City.

If she was there, Mirror State City would be there.

If she left, Mirror State City would be destroyed.

"Where is this?"

Suddenly, Lu Yun opened his mouth to ask.

"Mirror City."

Iris stopped in her tracks.

Lu Yun shook his head and asked, "I'm talking about, this side of the world."

In Lu Yun's mind, he already had the answer, he was just printing it.

"The world is the world, and where else can it be?"

Iris replied a little strangely.

"The only world?"

Luwin nodded, "I get it."

"What do you understand?"

Iris frowned as she walked back.

Yesterday, she had seen Lu Yun climb out of the mass grave with her own eyes, which was why she was particularly attentive to this young man who had survived a great tragedy.

She hadn't seen Lu Yun fall from the void and only thought it was a lucky man who had survived with more luck.

Even if Mirror City ...... was the only large city in the ten thousand miles of territory in this region, with a population of several million, Iris was a cultivator, she would not be able to remember everyone here.

What's more, most of the people here were dead, like walking corpses, living one day at a time, and she had no interest in communicating with others.

Therefore, Iris was the guardian goddess of Mirror City, but the people around her didn't give her a second glance.

"You're a cultivator?"

Lu Yun looked at her and slowly asked, "There is no Dao here, what do you cultivate?"

"The Avenue?"

Iris let out a soft breath and said, "A distant name, ah."

"There's no path, and the cultivation is naturally your own."

"Oh."

Lu Yun nodded.

He tried to stand up, but failed and sat back down.

"Your injuries are severe, but it's not like you were injured by a ghost corpse."

Iris Yi frowned.

Iris had been guarding Mirror City for a hundred years, and this was the first time she had interacted with someone like this.

"Are the ghouls ...... the same kind of zombies that attacked the city last night?"

Lu Yun nodded, "It's true that they didn't injure you."

"Do you believe me when I say that my wounds were left by God?"

Then suddenly, Lu Yun smiled brilliantly.

Iris was startled as she looked at Lu Yun, she hadn't known how many years it had been since she had seen someone smile.

It seemed that ...... from her birth to now, in more than a hundred years, she had never seen this expression appear on the face of any living creature.

At this moment, right now ...... this teenager who looks twilight, can't even stand up, and is going to die at any moment ...... is smiling?

Why is he laughing?

Just because, the wounds on his body were left by God?

Iris bobbed her head, her hand moving, a breeze dragging up the tattered collar behind Lu Yun's head, then she stepped back into the city.

Lu Yun, on the other hand, was dragged by the wind and followed behind Iris.

"The formation is breaking down, it needs to be repaired."

As he passed by the great formation protecting the city, Lu Yun casually glanced at the formation and then spoke up.

"The last formation master died in battle ten years ago, and there are no formation masters left in Mirror City."

"Even if there are formation masters, they don't have any more source stones to repair the formation."

Iris shook her head.
