I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

#331 - Two Immortal Seeds and the Nine Nether Beast

"Darkness, cold, but not quite deathly silence. This is truly an interesting place."

The Star-Devouring Grass incarnation brought Luo Mo to a place that was both deathly silent and lively.

Deathly silent in that there were many corpses here.

Lively in that, after Luo Mo and the Star-Devouring Grass incarnation teleported over, they all ‘came alive’.

The rich aura of death filled this place with an alternative kind of vitality.

Luo Mo's eyes burst forth with divine light, penetrating this star-system-level supercontinent. Everywhere he looked, he saw countless undead ghost domains and nether kingdoms.

And in the very center of this supercontinent, there was actually a sacred radiance trapped by boundless death energy.

"Extreme Yin gives birth to Yang, the cycle of life and death?"

The terrain here is very unusual, containing too many ghostly things. This continent is even larger than the Big Dipper Star, but it only has this one type of terrain, so it's very likely to nurture an Immortal Seed.

"I can't break through," the Star-Devouring Grass incarnation said.

Although he was only Luo Mo's Saint Realm incarnation, without multiple high-level Great Sages blocking him, it would be impossible to stop him.

"There are many Yin spirits here that raise corpses. Although I haven't seen a Corpse Emperor, there is definitely a Quasi-Emperor level ancient corpse. That aura is very powerful. I was forced to escape before I could even see it!"

"Mm, I understand."

A super death continent, with countless undead creatures, even an undead Quasi-Emperor.

And in the very center, there is a sacred area, full of vitality, so rich to the extreme. There is not a trace of death energy there. After all, with such powerful vitality, undead creatures would probably be purified before they could even absorb and convert it.

A treasure, undoubtedly in the very core!

"You continue to investigate. I'll go take a look in the middle."

"Yes." The Star-Devouring Grass incarnation flew into the teleportation channel, while Luo Mo stepped forward, each step carrying the flow of Dao patterns, shrinking billions of miles of space under his feet.

His aura also began to become powerful, as if countless stars were awakening within him, the shackles within his body fully opened, and the ancient techniques dormant.

The Wheel Sea, Dao Palace, Four Extremes, Dragon Transformation, and Immortal Platform, the five great secret realms connected as one, like a world-shaking Immortal Seed, a prototype of the universe blooming with immeasurable light within Luo Mo's body.

This was a skeleton equivalent to a Saint's cultivation. It attacked suddenly, its momentum fierce.

Luo Mo glanced sideways, casually grabbing, and the palm that had been covering the sky pressed down.

Boom—

A huge palm print appeared on the death continent, and the Saint-level skeleton that had leaped out, along with countless undead creatures, turned into ashes.

These things were all excellent resources for the Great Netherworld Art. After all, it's not so easy to find Saint corpses in other places.

However, Luo Mo's current focus was on the treasures in the middle of the death continent, so he didn't have time to play with them.

"Awoo!"

Two powerful auras awakened deep within the death continent.

Luo Mo activated his divine eyes and could see that they were two decaying corpses. In terms of aura, they could be compared to Great Sage Realm cultivators.

They are still usable.

Collect!

The Yellow Springs Diagram swept away, and both decaying corpses used their dark claws to tear at it. Their claws were incomparably sharp, and their death energy was thick. If an ordinary Great Sage weapon were to be hit, it would be torn apart.

But the Yellow Springs Diagram was different. It was made from the Undying Heavenly Emperor's human skin, incomparably strong. The dark claws of the two corpses were only deflected upon contact, completely unable to cause any damage, not even leaving a mark.

The Yellow Springs Diagram covered them and took them into its internal space.

They still wanted to act fiercely, but how could they have expected that in the Yellow Springs Diagram, there were several ancient race Great Sages, and many ancient race Saints.

"The Buddha's Dharma is merciful. We will deliver these lost souls today!"

The Buddhist light was dazzling, and the two decaying corpses were suddenly surrounded. Looking at the ancestral kings beside them, who greatly outnumbered them, they roared angrily to the sky.

Human race, you are too despicable!

The ancient races wielded their magical weapons, beating them wildly, vowing to subdue them completely.

Luo Mo didn't care about the two Great Sage-level decaying corpses and threw them into the Yellow Springs Diagram for the ancient races to play with.

Still not coming out?

The incarnation couldn't have lied to him. There should be a Quasi-Emperor level undead here. Why hasn't it come out even though this outsider has come knocking on its door?

Could it be some conspiracy?

Regardless of whether the undead have brains or not, Luo Mo wasn't afraid of conspiracies and traps. The Devouring Heaven Demon Can could be sacrificed at any time, and he had enough Pure Yang Pills on him, so he wasn't afraid at all. He shook the Yellow Springs Diagram, extending it towards the very center of the death continent.

"Whoosh—"

This time, three Yin spirits attacked, also equivalent to the Great Sage Realm, extremely difficult to deal with. They carried endless resentment and malice, attacking divine thoughts, and defiling people's souls.

They were very hidden. As Yin spirits, they naturally had the ability to conceal themselves, lurking in the dark, waiting for Luo Mo to reach the most suitable position before launching their attack.

Luo Mo's brow shone, and two talismans flew out.

Three Thousand Great Daos, the Great Netherworld Art, the Great Soul Art!

The two Three Thousand Great Daos transformed into countless runes, each one imprinted on Luo Mo's divine thought.

The three Yin spirits instantly approached, vying to drill into Luo Mo's body, wanting to corrode Luo Mo's Yuan Shen and occupy this body full of vigorous blood energy.

Chi!

With the blessing of the two Three Thousand Great Daos, Luo Mo's divine thought transformed into a spear of hell, engraved with countless Netherworld runes and soul runes, like the divine weapon of the Lord of Hell judging a crowd of ghosts, having a natural restraining effect on Yin spirits, controlling life and death.

The three Yin spirits crashed into it themselves, wanting to enter Luo Mo's body, but were pierced by Luo Mo's three spears of hell in a hair's breadth.

The hell spears containing the Great Netherworld Art and the Great Soul Art left the Great Sage level Yin spirits without the slightest resistance. The Great Netherworld Art contained in the spears could control ghosts, and the Great Soul Art specialized in restraining souls. After being stabbed, they could no longer move.

These three guys were easier to deal with than the previous two.

Of course, this was because Luo Mo was too restraining against them. If an ordinary Great Sage Realm cultivator came, they would definitely prefer to face the previous two decaying corpses rather than these three Yin spirits.

"Strange, watching his subordinates die one by one without coming out?"

At least it's a Quasi-Emperor level undead. It couldn't be that it sees a Saint King daring to come knocking on its door without even having the courage to attack, so it's being cautious?

Luo Mo didn't know the situation and couldn't deduce it.

Misfortune and fortune depend on each other. His current luck is extremely strong, making it impossible to effectively deduce anything. All the hexagrams point to a good result.

He relied on the Devouring Heaven Demon Can to protect himself, so he no longer cared about these things and continued to walk towards the center of the death continent.

Almost there, no more obstacles.

Ahead, death energy surged, and a chaotic aura enveloped the area, making it impossible for even divine thoughts to approach, and the aura was extremely powerful.

Luo Mo had no choice but to summon the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar, braving the chaotic aura to advance.

“Death energy and extremely powerful life essence are intertwined and agitated here, along with the Dao and power of a quasi-emperor…”

A chaotic storm has formed here, and it is becoming increasingly powerful. If this trend continues, it will expand to the entire Death Continent in a matter of days.

The front is the center of the Death Continent, the intersection of death energy and life essence. Luo Mo felt increasing pressure on the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar above his head and had to pour in mana to maintain it.

Ding.

The lid of the jar slightly closed, like a soft sigh of lament.

As Luo Mo went deeper and deeper, the mana he poured in increased, and the divine spirit of the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar showed signs of awakening.

“Who!”

A roar came from the front, and even the protective dark light hanging from the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar trembled.

At this moment, Luo Mo finally saw the situation here.

It was the place where black death energy and white life essence intersected. A sharp edge of death energy pierced into it, and this edge was a strangely shaped creature.

Its head resembled a wolf, but it had a pair of huge bull horns, and a vertical eye on its forehead. It looked back at Luo Mo, full of ferocity.

That vertical eye gave Luo Mo a creepy feeling.

Upon closer inspection, there was no eyeball between the two eyelids, but a black seed, containing unfathomable death energy!

Its body was covered with black scales, like dark immortal gold. Blood-red hair grew from the gaps between the scales, filled with baleful aura, and behind it were nine tails, each ending in a ferocious head resembling a dragon's head.

Not only was it full of death energy, but it was also full of baleful aura. This was a very terrifying creature!

At this moment, its forelimbs had stretched into the area of life essence. All the death energy in the part that stretched in was washed away, and in its claws, it held a white seed. Endless life essence spurted out from it as the center.

At this moment, this monster looked back at Luo Mo in shock and anger, but it was difficult to move. A powerful life aura was spreading backward from its forelimbs. It was an astonishing change, from death to life, washing away all death energy, recreating life, recreating spirituality, truly transforming it into a living being, reversing life and death!

This was not the petty trick of the Yin Gods of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty, but a true transformation of life and death, with immeasurable mysteries.

However, it was stuck between the boundary of life and death, not daring to act rashly.

Because a balance had formed here, a balance of life and death. All around were large formations cast from shimmering white bones, arranged with an unknown number of saint-level Dao bones.

No wonder there were only a few stragglers outside.

The current situation was that a single move could affect the whole body. If an accident occurred, its transformation would stop.

“Yo, can't move?”

Luo Mo, with the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar above his head, observed this strange undead creature with his divine eyes, walking around and examining it.

“Looking at your appearance, could you have been one of the Ten Ferocious beings, the Nine Nether Hound, in your previous life?”

“……”

The monster did not speak.

But it was useless even if it didn't speak. With a slight movement of the True Spirit Seal, Luo Mo understood everything.

However, it had very few memories of its own, because it had died once, and it had not retained many memories from its previous life, only remembering some key things.

“You really are a Nine Nether Hound.”

Luo Mo said with certainty after perceiving it with the True Spirit Seal.

“You died in battle before you truly came of age and were buried here. Using the Death Immortal Seed as a foundation, a large formation was set up to reverse life and death, nourishing a Life Immortal Seed, in order to revive.”

“And the formation here determines that only the Death Immortal Seed on your body can activate the terrain here.”

“Not bad, not bad, a very ingenious arrangement.”

“In the past years, this was just a chaotic burial ground moving within the Boundary Tomb, attracting corpses. No one knew that there were two shocking Immortal Seeds hidden inside.”

“After your revival, because you have the Death Immortal Seed on your body, you are not as muddled as other undead, but retained some sanity, knowing how to transform yourself and revive. Originally, it would only take a few hundred years to succeed, but—”

A bright smile appeared on Luo Mo's face.

“But in the millions of years, this window of only a few hundred years happened to be encountered by me!”

How could it be such a coincidence?

“I probably wouldn't have been able to discover you if you had awakened a little later.”

“There wouldn't have been anything for me to do if you had awakened a little earlier.”

“But unexpectedly…”

Luo Mo smiled happily, “What a pity, what a pity, you just happened to meet me.”

He looked up and down at this Nine Nether Hound, nodding in praise.

“Not bad, the shape is very ferocious. Making a set of armor will definitely be cool and arrogant.”

The undead Nine Nether Hound bared its teeth, trembling with anger, but it could not move. The power of the two Immortal Seeds was activated by the formation, undergoing a shocking transformation. With its power, it could not move.

“Do you want to die? When I revive, I will celebrate with your blood!”

“How fierce.”

Luo Mo smiled.

The Nine Nether Hound is a creature that is born to be bloodthirsty. This one is still an undead, so it likes to kill even more.

Therefore, Luo Mo did not intend to let it live.

Although he is dead now, Luo Mo intends to make it die more thoroughly.

After all, the skin of this thing will definitely be super cool to make a set of Nine Nether Armor!

“You also know the Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique?”

Luo Mo analyzed the scanned information while looking at this Nine Nether Hound.

Most of its memories have been lost, and only some key ones have been retained.

And this key thing actually contains the inheritance treasure technique of the Nine Nether Hound clan.

The inheritance treasure technique of the Ten Ferocious beings is still pretty good.

Luo Mo formed hand seals, and an eyeball appeared in the hand seals, bursting out a beam of death light.

“How do you know it!”

The undead Nine Nether Hound was shocked, because this was a move in the Nine Nether Hound Treasure Technique. Although this human used it somewhat out of shape, the essence was indeed the treasure technique of their Nine Nether Hound clan.

But why would this human race know it?

“I just learned it from you. It's a pity that you seem to only have this one treasure technique to show off.”

It was a pity that he couldn't find other treasure techniques.

“Then, I'll send you on your way. I want the two Immortal Seeds.”

Although the undead Nine Nether Hound was worried that Luo Mo would destroy its transformation, it laughed when it heard Luo Mo say that he wanted the two Immortal Seeds: “Both Immortal Seeds are rare treasures in the world, with infinite power. Now that the formation is complete, do you think you can take them away?”

At the intersection of black and white, even a quasi-emperor-level powerhouse like it was frozen there. Boundless death energy and life essence flowed here. It was difficult for Luo Mo to break through.

The Nine Nether Hound stared at the Heaven Swallowing Demon Jar above Luo Mo's head with fear, and said fiercely: “At worst, we'll perish together!”

“That makes sense.”

Luo Mo took out something, the thing that Gai Jiuyou left him for self-defense before he left.

“So, it's better for me to be careful, so as not to damage my two Immortal Seeds—”

Luo Mo's smile gradually faded, “—and your fur.”
