Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 414: Chapter 196 Catastrophe Descends!_2

With Li Yelai seated, crimson Spiritual Flames surged from the wings of the Heavenly Meteor Qilin, instantly transforming into a red light that soared into the sky.

Just a few seconds after Li Yelai left the deep pit, several angels arrived at the crater.

They rushed to the bottom of the pit only to find Mei Wu’s corpse.

Immediately, the angels let out piercing roars. Their angry voices echoed throughout the Void Realm!

”Human, I swear I’ll kill you!”

Their adoration for Mei Wu turned into hatred towards Li Yelai. Their hatred seemed to set everything ablaze.

One angel after another took off, their eyes bloodshot as they chased directly after Li Yelai.

Li Yelai, however, was not worried that they could catch up to him. Even if the Heavenly Meteor Qilin was wounded, the four-winged angels would find it difficult to keep pace, not to mention that Li Yelai could also use the Shadow Army to accelerate.

But at the moment, Li Yelai indeed could not escape Silver Mountain City.

A red light screen covered the entire Silver Mountain City. Even with Li Yelai’s speed, he could not leave this place. He could only maneuver in the sky with the angels, eventually exhausting his Spiritual Energy.

Likewise, his comrades still fighting in the main battlefield could not leave this place either.

If the time dragged on for too long, even with the officials having powerhouses to block the enemy reinforcements, they would meet a grim fate.

This was, after all, inside the Forbidden Zone. The support forces of the Forbidden Zone were endless. Time was not on the side of the humans.

Li Yelai’s gaze turned to the eastern side of Silver Mountain City.

There, his comrades were still battling the main force of the angels. Should he join them first?

After a moment’s hesitation, Li Yelai immediately turned and headed towards the western side of Silver Mountain City, getting as far from his comrades as possible.

At the same time, he quickly took out a signal flare from his backpack and fired it into the sky. Then, he loaded another type of ammunition and fired continuously into the air!

”I want to see if your Heaven and Earth Net can withstand a Catastrophe, can withstand my Calamity!”

Li Yelai gritted his teeth and took out a basin-sized round platter from his backpack.

The disk had a Crystal Skull Pointer and a surface divided into alternating gold and red prize sections.

Gold represented blessings, while red symbolized curses.

Among these prize sections, there was an extremely thin black area, no more than one millimeter wide.

This represented destruction!

It was as if the heavens themselves could not stand to watch someone unlucky enough to land on such a spot get destroyed.

And this was Li Yelai’s ultimate weapon, the Lucky Wheel!

Li Yelai activated the Face, the Wolf Vanquisher of Juxu, Huo Qubing!

Using the Shadow Army’s Swift as the Wind, he pushed the speed of the Heavenly Meteor Qilin to the limit.

He headed west at the fastest speed, getting as far away from his teammates as possible.

As he was about to reach the western city wall, Li Yelai finally spun the Big Roulette’s pointer.

The Skull Pointer spun rapidly, passing over each prize sector. No force could stop the pointer or interfere with the outcome during this process.

After about a dozen seconds, the Skull Pointer slowly came to a stop, precisely on that smallest chance black area.

Instantly, a dark light emanated from the eyes of the Skull Pointer!

”Of course, my luck is unmatched in this world!” Li Yelai mocked himself, then said, ”Bring it on, then! Let it come even more fiercely!”

Be it an earthquake or a hurricane, as long as it could destroy the Heaven and Earth Net!

Anything would do!

However, just a few seconds later, Li Yelai and the angels chasing him looked towards the sky in horror.

”Holy shit!”

...

A few minutes earlier, on the other side, in the main battlefield on the east side of Silver Mountain City, the Ye Boshous were resisting the onslaught of the angel main force while trying to break through the red light screen.

They were supposed to evacuate Silver Mountain City immediately after rescuing the three hostages.

But they were stopped by the Taboo Item, Heaven and Earth Net, and trapped within the city walls of Silver Mountain City.

”It’s no good. Even if we can open a small hole, it will heal instantly. Most of us won’t make it through.”

”Can we pinpoint the location of this Taboo Item’s main body? Let’s go and take down the Taboo Item directly!”

”We can’t do it. We can’t deduce its location. They’re on guard and interfering with us.”

”Damn, it looks like we’ll have to turn back and slaughter them!”

”We don’t have enough time...”

Actually, their achievements were quite dazzling. Facing adversaries from the Forbidden Zone Army that outnumbered them several times, they had slain nearly a hundred.

And the Forbidden Zone Army itself was systematically annihilated.

But the cost was, the more than forty members of Ye Boshou here were all injured. Some were severely wounded. The disparity in numbers was just too great.

The Forbidden Zone intended to wear down the Ye Boshou with their Servant Army!

At this moment, a blue flare shot up in the distance; that was Ye Boshou’s signal fire.

”Is that...the signal for completed mission?” some of Ye Boshou frowned and asked, ”Are there comrades still out there? What mission were they on?”

”That’s our Champion Team One’s Night General; his mission was to kill the human traitor, Mei Wu!” Gu Yue, covered in blood, spoke, ”It seems he has already succeeded!”

”Mei Wu?” a member of Ye Boshou exclaimed in astonishment, ”The traitor adored by all beings?”

”That’s right, her! Look at the angels’ reaction,” Gu Yue said.

In the distance, a group of angels, as if stimulated by something, immediately broke away from the battlefield and sped toward the location of the signal.

Clearly, they had also received the news of Mei Wu’s death. Driven by boundless hatred, they immediately split their forces, intending to tear the human to shreds!

”It seems to be true!”

”Well done!”

”However, could that Night General be your next-generation Champion? Because he’s a blockhead, he wasn’t influenced by Mei Wu?” inquired a member of Ye Boshou.

”Mei Wu’s curse can overcome species, gender, orientation; a mere blockhead is of no use. Otherwise, Captain Yang Chen would have whacked Mei Wu dead with one strike,” Gu Yue said with a laugh, ”However, you got...at least half right.”

”But why would that Night General reveal his location? He should be unable to leave Silver Mountain City just like us, right?” a member of Ye Boshou expressed concern, ”He’s in danger now; he should quickly regroup with us.”

Indeed, at this time, being hunted by so many angels was far too dangerous.

However, at this time, the signal fireworks appeared again in the distance, no longer blue, but purple...

This signal meant ’Danger, stay away from this area!’

Firework after firework exploded, alerting all the Ye Boshou to stay away from his position!

”What’s he planning to do...” muttered a stunned member of Ye Boshou.

Gu Yue then said, ”He’s carrying the Taboo Item, the Lucky Wheel...”

”The Big Roulette? What use is that? He’d be better off with the Shattering Star Spear or the Invincible Boxing Gloves!” a member of Ye Boshou said.

”His luck is terribly bad, he’s bound to hit the worst option. So, he’s going to summon a Catastrophe!” Gu Yue grinned, ”Look forward to it, everyone. Let’s see if the Catastrophe he summons can shred... shred...”

Gu Yue’s eyes widened in shock as he looked to the sky, and all Ye Boshou and angels were also astonished as they gazed upwards.

The entire sky was lit up!

...

On the battlefield dozens of kilometers away from Silver Mountain City.

Utter chaos reigned, the forests were completely destroyed, and the entire mountain was splitting open, as if even the earth itself was trembling. Terrifying gashes ran across the landscape like giant wounds, silently testifying to the ferocity of the battle.

From within this shattered mountain, a figure struggled to climb out. That was Mi Liutian, one of the Overlords of the Six-winged Angels of the Forbidden Zone.

Holding a broken sword, she struggled to climb out of the mountain. Looking up at the battlefield, she saw only the mutilated corpses of Four-Winged Angels.

Their wings no longer fluttered, and their beautiful or handsome faces had lost all signs of life. Their Spiritual Ability Equipment was completely destroyed.

They lay broken on the ground, their eyes filled with fear and disbelief.

And in the center of the battlefield, a massive carcass lay sprawled upon the earth.

It had a huge eyeball and three pairs of grotesque, giant wings. Its feathers were fiery red and adorned with terrifying eyes.

Now, those eyes were filled with deathly stillness, blood flowing from them like tears of unwillingness.

A Sky Halberd had pierced it through, nailing it to the ground.

And the figure stood atop the Sky Halberd, the blood-red cape fluttering without wind!

The terrifying scene appeared like a twilight of the gods, but she knew this was not any twilight; it was that peerless human Champion of the same rank!

Advancing through slaughter to become an Overlord, he smashed the Spiritual Ability Equipment with his bare hands, killed seven Four-Winged Angels, and slew a Six-winged Angel – the Human Champion of the Eighth Generation!

Fear gripped Mi Liutian’s heart, and with her six wings spread wide, she fled at full speed.

At that moment, she truly understood what it meant to be a Champion!

Yang Chen, however, did not pursue Mi Liutian; he knew that if the battle continued, the Supreme would surely intervene. He was not arrogant enough to contend with the Supreme.

Besides, his attention wasn’t on Mi Liutian; he was watching the distant horizon.

A huge meteorite streaked across the sky, hurtling straight toward Silver Mountain City.

”Your luck really couldn’t be any worse, could it!”
