Chapter 863: The Bell of Chaos Tolls (1/2)

Lu Yun felt his replica shudder violently the moment the enormous pupil emerged, like it’d discovered high quality prey. Unbidden, he shot upward with Diexi in hand, rising up to the height of the eye.

“…you’re not a realm monster!” Lu Yun narrowed his eyes as he looked at the eyeball larger than a star.

Not a realm monster!

He could immediately come to this conclusion now that he was face-to-face with the eyeball.

“Wait, no, you are a realm monster,” he suddenly changed his tune. “You’re a realm monster that’s reincarnated into the great wilderness!”

Being as there was no wheel of reincarnation in this age, no one controlled this process. As long as the great masters didn’t fully perish and left a strand of their true spirit intact, there would be hope yet that they could one day return to the world.

Connate gods such as Taiyi, Yinglong, and Kuafu could reincarnate at any time if they so wished and return to the great wilderness in the body of one of their more humble descendants.

However, that was a fate that some connate demon gods would rather avoid at any cost, [1] while those like Yinglong and Taiyi voluntarily became ghosts to fend off the realm monsters and protect their world.

At the same time, realm monsters could also reincarnate into the great wilderness if they met certain conditions. They would then be life forms under the primitive great dao. The enormous eyeball in front of them was one such mighty realm monster that’d reincarnated and ultimately regained its strength!

“Latter-day humans built hell, maintained order of the netherworld, and controlled reincarnation of the multiverse not to enslave all races, but to prevent realm monsters from reincarnating into the great wilderness!” Lu Yun took a deep breath. Everything was falling into place, and he finally knew what he should do from now on.

“But though you’re very strong and infinitely close to being a creator, I will keep you down today!” He took a step forward and explosively deployed the strength of a body of the world.

The heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, as well as the six yang organs manifested by their yang brethren, all flared with scintillating light at the same time. Lu Yun opened his mouth and emitted an eruption of sword energy that stabbed at the eyeball.

It was just a pair of eyes; he’d dug this eyeball out last time and suppressed it in the cosmos. However, it still contained boundless might. If the three chaos realm experts beneath him ran into it, they’d disintegrate into pieces from a single glare.

Thankfully, Lu Yun’s body was one of the world and he also possessed the organs of the world. He was the perfect weapon with which to counter the reincarnated realm monster.

His blast of sword energy pierced savagely into the eyeball. It shrieked from anguish and answered back with a blaze of scarlet red flame.

“Fire and water in conjunction, yin and yang in harmony… you’re just one step from breaking free of realm monster limitations and becoming a real living being!” Lu Yun started.

If this realm monster truly transformed into a living soul of the great wilderness, he would no longer be able to suppress it anymore.

Gritting his teeth, he parted the surging flames with Diexi and came howling down on the eyeball. Since he’d possessed the strength to dig it out from its owner, he naturally had the power to destroy it completely.

His primary body had been too severely injured last time for him to continue to control Xing Chen. That was why his replica had been left in space to keep the eyeball under control. Who would’ve thought that it’d show itself again when the Great Formation of the Nineheavens Gates was on the cusp of completion?

Hummm.

The moment that Diexi touched the eyeball, a red ripple burst out of the eye and repelled Lu Yun with a shockwave. A faint smear of blood barreled out of the eye and aimed for the falling human.

“Luo Houluo!” Lu Yun shrieked when he saw the bloody shadow.

“Eh? You know me?” The faint shadow paused and resolved itself into the form of a handsome young man. Luo Houluo was also one that took the form of whoever was looking at him, so Lu Yun saw him as a human.
