The thing thatd killed Lu Shenhou knew the human would return.

That was why his body had been purposefully left behind.

Without seeing his body, Lu Shenhou wouldve lived forever in blissful ignorance.

None of the tomb monsters or layouts could hurt him since he was already dead.

No matter where he went—even if he entered the bronze door—he would end up here, the place of his death and where his unfinished business lingered: to repair the broken cultivation path.

Leaving his body behind triggered his death upon his return.

That also meant the monster that had shattered the arcane dao immortal power might still be around.

The group raised their guard and carefully scanned the area.

“Get back!” Lu Yun flashed over to Zi Chen and pulled the youth to his side, summoning the Sugato Sword at the same time and unleashing its energies.

“Somethings happening to Shenhous remains,” he hissed.

“What!” The others trained their gazes upon the body.

It was reanimating.

A thick, metallic tang of blood burrowed into their noses as crimson fluid gushed out of the body to converge into a humanoid monster.

When it took concrete shape, it slowly rose to its feet.

Roughly seven feet in height, blood-red scales covered its lithe body while a tail dragged behind it, looking like a humanoid lizard for all intents and purposes.

An open maw revealed sharp teeth that were still dripping with blood.

Crack!

Suddenly, the monster lowered its head and bit into Lu Shenhous body, swallowing it whole.

Hum.

Crimson light receded, leaving behind inky-black scales that glowed dimly with dark splendor.

“Its evolving from a spirit into a living creature!” Face clouding over, Wu Tulong manifested a lance.

“Grrrawl!” A low growl emitted from the monsters mouth.

It stared at the five of them with black eyes, hunger flashing within.

Devouring the living would allow it to evolve further.

“Die!!” commanded Lu Yun, pointing at the monster.

Puff!

A ball of black flame ignited on its body, swifting spreading all over and interrupting its lunge at the humans.

Briefly freezing with shock, it had time for a brief, pained shriek before turning to dust.

Where did it come from Its accumulated so much bad karma that the karma was almost tangible! Just how many has it killed!

He may have killed the monster with the Judgment of Life and Death, but he was still reeling from what hed just seen.

That thing could rival the akasha ghosts summoned by the layout of certain death! More importantly, the monster left nothing behind in the wake of its destruction, and it hadnt turned into an Infernum.

It had no soul!

“Thats… the technique youve used to kill Beigong Yu, isnt it” Mo Qitian gawked in shock.

In his eyes, that point was almost god-like in its power.

The monster had broken through a dao immortal barrier and killed Lu Shenhou.

However, Lu Yun had killed it with a single point and done the same to Beigong Yu back in Dusk Province.

“Thats one of my secret techniques.” Lu Yun nodded.

The others didnt continue the line of questioning.

Secret techniques werent something to get to the bottom of.

“No one move yet,” Lu Yun hurried out when the others shifted to look around the chamber.

“The monster was just an accidental intruder.

The real danger in the chamber hasnt manifested yet.”

He spoke quickly and with great urgency, deeply worried that his companions would trigger the most dangerous thing in the tomb—the fourth coiled mountain of the Door of Demise.

Fortunately, hed broken the first three layers of coiled mountains, or hed be helpless against the fourth.

Four coiled mountains combined and the entire layout manifested would kill even the nine celestial emperors in the flesh.

Qing Han had stuck by Lu Yuns side all this time, never straying more than a step away from his friend.

He knew that the safest place in any tomb was with Lu Yun.

The other three quickly returned and warily scanned the surroundings.

To seek a dragon of mountains coiled,

Those deathly cliffs with mysteries roiled.

Danger shies if mountains hide,

Yin and yang do mountains ride!

Hum.

Lu Yuns luopan burst forth with golden light, illuminating the modestly sized chamber.

“What the hell!!” Everyones eyes shot wide open with shock.

Where the light reached revealed walls and floor tiles made of corpses.

The entire chamber seemed to have been built with layer upon layer of dead bodies.

Incomprehensibly dense, the very world comprised of corpses.

Gazes empty and smiles eerie, every head faced the group.

It felt like theyd been buried by an endless supply of corpses.

“What was this chamber built with Whats going on!” Qing Hans voice shook as he tightly held onto Lu Yuns elbow.

“This is the resting place for the path of cultivation.” Lu Yun patted his friends shoulder.

“These people are its burial goods.” He activated his Spectral Eye to read the information from the bodies.

“The realm beyond spirit realm was hacked away.

All cultivators of that realm and anyone who knew about it, be they cultivators, immortals, and mortals were killed and buried with it.

Since everyone who knew about the realm died, and all its records and methods destroyed, the realm effectively ceased to exist.

Thus the path of cultivation was severed.

This chamber is the fourth coiled mountains of the Door of Demise...” murmured Lu Yun.

“The Avici Cell.”

Another clue that pointed to hell existing at one point in time!

Avici was the eighteenth level of hell that hawked immortality as its worst torment.

An eternity of suffering and torture with no hope of reincarnation awaited those sentenced to this level.

The feng shui of the main chamber was based on the Avici Hell, and therefore possessed its power.

Even the dead could continue to live!

“So the mortals in the town outside and Lu Shenhou have retained the illusion of living because of this place.” Lu Yun paled slightly.

Hell had crumbled long ago, taking with it the Avici Hell.

However, someone had built this chamber with the eighteenth layer of hell as a blueprint, manifesting its power in the world of immortals and creating many living dead.

Nonetheless, this didnt compare to the real Avici Hell, which allowed dead spirits to become truly immortal.

This layout only allowed the dead to continue living if they believed they were alive.

Once that belief was shattered, the living dead would fade away.

“Lu Yun, dont you think the corpses seem alive…” Qing Han asked nervously with round eyes.

“The power of the Avici Hell has activated,” muttered Lu Yun.

“The corpses will come back to life as living corpses...”
