The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 767 - 275 Objective: Earth Scripture

Meng Po never expected that something so strange would burst out of Lin Yun’s body; she didn’t even get a clear look at it before she perished on the spot in frustration due to her failed attempt to curse Lin Yun.

Afterwards, not even ashes remained of her; she followed in the footsteps of the Minotaur.

The Underworld Trinity Gods finally left, all together.

Lin Yun finally withdrew the Azure Dragon Domain, the power lent to him by Canglan. Maintaining the domain open was consuming Canglan’s power.

In the end, Canglan appeared in person to block the curse for him, which was an unexpected joy.

All in all, Canglan could be considered a rather friendly collaborator.

After repelling the power of the curse, Canglan returned inside Lin Yun’s body.

"To fully assimilate these items of one’s vital essence will require some time, however, I can first help you initiate the cycle of reincarnation, it’s just..."

Canglan hesitated, but in the end, still cradling his heart, took another bite.

Lin Yun felt that the heart of Impermanence was both delicious and hard to swallow; yet, in Canglan’s case, it seemed so delectable that Lin Yun wanted to take another bite himself.

However, though he was not quite human, he would not stoop to the level of stealing snacks from a little hamster.

"It’s just what?"

Lin Yun had a premonition that he would win the gamble with Qian Qian, that the cycle would certainly be initiated; only, he knew there would definitely be a cost.

But Lin Yun was not without options.

It was just Zhang Biyu; if the price was too high, he simply wouldn’t rescue her.

"You’ll have to see for yourself..."

Canglan felt that it was too complicated to explain verbally, so he transmitted an image directly into Lin Yun’s mind. These memories of inheritance were gained after consuming the heart of Impermanence.

Theoretically, Impermanence isn’t the actual god, but this heart is. Whoever possesses the heart of Impermanence, becomes the next Impermanence.

Therefore, some critical knowledge is recorded within this heart. After Canglan devoured it, he naturally received this part of the inheritance.

The image he transmitted to Lin Yun showed a skeleton leaning against a circular jade wall.

In its left and right hands, it held halves of a scroll, with additional parts scattered on the ground.

"This skeleton is the former Lord of the Netherworld. What he is holding are the Earth Scriptures," explained Canglan to Lin Yun, in his heart.

Once Lin Yun heard that the scroll was the Earth Scripture, he instantly understood why it felt familiar.

He had a fragment of the Phantom of the Earth Scripture, which Yuxuan had given him to comprehend; however, despite his efforts, Lin Yun had not deciphered anything substantial from it.

It remained the only thing he could not fathom.

Impermanence, who had effortlessly crushed Yuxuan, had recently died at his hands, and now he knew the original location of the Earth Scripture.

Upon reflection, he felt that Yuxuan’s sacrifice seemed somewhat in vain.

However, his daring spirit of exploration was commendable, just that the chosen Savior, Zhen Li, was nowhere to be found dead or alive, and the other did not seem like a good person at all.

"It’s rumored that reincarnation is a transformation of the Earth Scripture, controlling the birth and death of all beings under heaven. Now it seems that this legend holds truth."

According to the current situation of reincarnation being shattered, the Earth Scripture presented in the image was likewise fragmented.

"Moreover, Minotaur, Meng Po, and Impermanence, these three were all split from the Lord of the Netherworld, each stationed in different locations, replacing him in wielding the power of reincarnation—Impermanence to lure souls, Meng Po to guide them, and Minotaur to inflict punishment."

Canglan revealed another profound secret, causing Lin Yun to be taken aback.

I thought there would be many gods in Netherland, but it turned out that the three gods were actually one and the same.

The Sacred Beasts could only split into two, and the two would almost have the same strength, each controlling a different Great Dao, and their status was equal.

But the Lord of the Netherworld split into four, three weak, one strong, with one as the master and three as the servants.

This seems to show that the Lord of the Netherworld’s understanding of splitting surpassed even that of the Four Great Holy Beasts.

And could such a powerful god really die so thoroughly?

Even if the cycle of reincarnation shattered, it was only the cycle that broke. Impermanence and the other two servant gods survived, so how could the Lord of the Netherworld die?

But not only did he die, his body remained, and even the Earth Scripture was left behind.

The Jade Wall behind the Lord of the Netherworld’s body is the passage of reincarnation. With the power of Impermanence that Canglan now possessed, she could slightly open the cycle, and it wouldn’t be difficult to allow a True Spirit to reincarnate. However, she began to feel that something was wrong as she learned more, which is why she decided to share with Lin Yun.

She had witnessed Lin Yun’s intelligence and thought perhaps Lin Yun might have some insights.

"The Earth Scripture is right there, and none of the three, including Impermanence, dare to pick it up. I’m afraid that place is very dangerous too."

Upon hearing this, Canglan, while devouring the last bit of Impermanence’s heart, responded, "Your guess is correct. Impermanence wanted to hunt you down, also for Xuanwu’s Blood. Sacred Beast Blood could provide protection and help him get the Earth Scripture."

With the last bite, Canglan also came to know the entirety of Impermanence’s plan.

It was exactly because he heard from Lin Yun that "He" was about to awaken that Impermanence began to move, scheming to seize the blood of the Four Sacred Beasts. They also knew that the Earth Scripture was split into three parts, which meant each could obtain a fragment.

With the power of the Earth Scripture, they could ascend to Divine Emperor, even briefly open the cycle of reincarnation. Even if that one came to destroy the world again, they would have a slim chance of survival.

That’s why they sprang into action the moment they sensed the Snow Maiden’s intrusion into Netherland.

Just that they did not expect the ambush to fail and end up killed instead, which worked out in favor of Canglan.

"So you mean to say, we can go and pick up the Earth Scripture?"

The Snow Maiden was right there, and letting her bleed a little was no pressure at all.

And Canglan could soon be resurrected and return. She was an Azure Dragon, and having one of the Four Sacred Beasts was enough to enter. Now there were two, so what was there to fear?

The Earth Scripture was practically a gift coming to their doorstep.

We’re here already, why not take a look?

Canglan nodded, clearly intrigued.

If there was any treasure that could move a Divine Emperor, the Earth Scripture was definitely at the top of the list.

Just one Earth Scripture could transform into the cycle of reincarnation, and wielding the Earth Scripture would be incredibly powerful.

"I want it."

Cradling the Minotaur mask and gnawing on the horn, Canglan put forth her request to Lin Yun in a coquettish manner.

For a moment, Lin Yun even felt like he had raised a Little Canglan and almost indulged her on the spot with an agreement.

But he quickly snapped out of it and retorted, "Don’t you think you’re making requests of me a bit too naturally, as if I’m your keeper?"

Canglan thought Lin Yun was going to refuse her, and her expression inevitably turned somewhat pitiful, then she took a big bite from the horn.

Being upset couldn’t stop her from her meal.

"Can’t I?"

Lin Yun: "..."

It’s fine, but no acting cute!
