Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 470 - 326: Battle of Kunlun Ruins (Part 3)

The world no longer has as many immortals as it did then, so how can it resist the emergence of the Longevity Species.

The world is in danger, humanity is in peril!

"True Monarch, Great Saint, why is this happening?" Sun Yan asked helplessly.

He had to give up using the Samadhi True Flame to burn away those corrosive powers.

His burning speed couldn't keep up with the rate at which they were being produced; persisting would only waste mana and time, all to no avail.

"No, it's impossible, why is this happening?" True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao said in amazement.

Such a bizarre situation, even he was encountering it for the first time.

"Your Celestial Eye cannot see clearly this time. These powers do not belong to this world; they are evidently from an external source. Someone is orchestrating events from behind the scenes, and the Moon is the key to breaking the situation."

The Monkey King appeared and looked at those corrosive powers and said.

"Not of this world? How could that be?" The True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao was stunned.

"Someone wants to break the sky and earth connection, and unknowingly, you've become an unwitting helper in their scheme. I only just figured this out," the Monkey King sighed and said helplessly.

"Creating a scheme… that could only be…"

Sun Yan's eyes suddenly went wide: "The Queen Mother of the West!"

"Exactly, she guided you to the Moon and to kill this unknown Longevity Species, which was already suspicious. The Queen Mother of the West was in seclusion in Kunlun Ruins after a great battle and had never ventured out. How would she know that a Longevity Species was sealed on the Moon?"

The Monkey King scratched his head: "This Longevity Species having the power to corrode seals is indeed odd, someone must have orchestrated this."

The True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao frowned, lost in thought: "Could it be that the corrosive power within the Longevity Species is the key, but the Queen Mother of the West can't come in person and had to lure Sun Yan to kill the Longevity Species, essentially helping her eliminate the crucial element."

"That's about right, but why would the Queen Mother of the West do this? She should belong to the Celestial Court's side."

The Monkey King was baffled.

"Only the Queen Mother of the West can handle the corrosive power, we must return to Kunlun Ruins immediately to see what she intends to do, sealing is no small matter."

The True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao said with a serious expression.

Sun Yan had never seen the True Monarch so grave, indicating the severity of the situation.

Since the corrosive powers on the Moon couldn't be eradicated, staying there was just a waste of time.

The urgent task at hand was to return swiftly to Kunlun Ruins to inquire about the Queen Mother's true purpose, to solve the Moon's problem.

Sun Yan immediately requested the assistance of three Great Gods to protect him, aiding him as he physically flew across space back to Earth.

——

Over the past six months, earthquakes and tsunamis occurred frequently around the world.

Mount Fuji was claimed by geologists to be susceptible to eruption due to lunar gravity, causing panic among the Japanese public.

On the African Savannah, strange and unusual collective migrations of wild beasts appeared, as if sensing an impending crisis, with a great dread looming.

Such strange phenomena caught the attention of many scientists and netizens online.

But no institution could provide a convincing explanation.

Unfazed, cattle and horses continued to work, anyway, the sky falling had nothing to do with those earning a monthly salary of 4K.

No one noticed a figure plummeting from outer space.

At an astonishing speed exceeding Mach 50, it crash-landed in the Gangdis Region.

Boom!

As Sun Yan's feet touched the ground, the force created a huge crater, dissipating the energy generated during his descent.

"I wonder how Zhou Mangmang and Lin Wan are doing now."

Stepping on the solid ground, feeling the heavier gravity, Sun Yan breathed a sigh of relief with nostalgia.

No wonder mythological legends say not all immortals live in the heavens; the pressure of a round trip is immense, even immortals might not endure it.

It's possible they might be refined alive amidst atmospheric friction.

If Sun Yan hadn't had the help of three Great Gods, he wouldn't dare to attempt such a thing lightly.

Rather than contacting Zhou Mangmang and Lin Wan to inquire about Lin Wan's condition after taking the elixir of immortality.

Sun Yan immediately headed for the entrance to Kunlun Ruins.

Unexpectedly, upon his arrival at the valley entrance, he found the outside barren.

The once lush grassy field now lay desolate and lifeless, with a bizarre aura permeating the air.

Upon entering the Kunlun Ruins, Sun Yan saw an overcast sky and the corpses of various creatures shriveled and eerie on the ground.

"Kunlun Ruins indeed has a problem," the True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao appeared and said.

Sun Yan quickened his pace, heading straight for Kunlun Hill.

Atop Kunlun Hill, just as Sun Yan last saw, the enormous body of the Queen Mother of the West lay at the mountaintop, eyes closed facing the earth.

As Sun Yan arrived, the Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes, revealing a hint of amusement.

"Queen Mother of the West, the Longevity Species on the Moon has been slain by me, you should have received the Longevity Stone that my friend sent, right?" Sun Yan asked calmly.

"You did well, indeed I did not misjudge you."

The Queen Mother of the West smiled.

"Why did you do this? You knew the Longevity Species contained a mysterious corrosive sealing power, a release would cause irreparable harm to the entire world, all beings would be endangered by the Longevity Species' return."
