Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 492: Chapter 232: Target Decapitation, Emperor’s Fall! (5k)_2

Li Yelai nodded; it was no wonder Red Fury and his companions were so vigilant. If they continued to stay near the factory, the main force might very well be eavesdropped on and ambushed by the Blood Flies.

”How should we attack the town then?” Li Yelai asked, ”We can’t just keep guarding, can we?”

”Of course not!” Red Fury snorted, ”Or rather, Mo Ya’s presence makes me want to take down that mountain town even more. The life force of the Eternal Life Sect’s Divine Chosen is strong enough to let me enjoy the battle.”

”But the only trouble is the virus around the town; our believers have tried it. Whether it’s activating a Spiritual Barrier or wearing sealed protective suits, they all got infected. It must be the ability of some Taboo Item.”

”How should we deal with this Taboo Item then?” Li Yelai inquired, ”Among the Taboo Items we control, is there anything that can suppress this method?”

”There is one at the base, but it still plays an important role and cannot be brought here. However, we don’t need it,” Xue Yin said, ”Emperor’s Fall, you haven’t fully shifted your thinking yet. Who are we? We are the Divine Chosen of Lord Blood God, the extension of His will, the leaders of the believers, the Angel Envoys watched by the Divine—such Taboo Items are just trivial, as our Lord Himself will suppress it for us.”

”By means of sacrifice?” Li Yelai asked. For the Ember Church, sacrifices could help them solve many problems.

Just as they had passed through the Great Snow Mountain, they could likewise use a Blood Sacrifice to suppress the enemy’s Taboo Item for a while.

”That’s right, it’s regrettable, but the heads obtained from today’s blood battle have to be used for a sacrifice to suppress that Taboo Item,” Xue Yin somewhat regretted; so many strong individuals had died today, if they were all sacrificed, perhaps the entire congregation of the Blood God Sect would receive blessings.

It might even allow Li Yelai to occupy more sacrifices and possibly reach the Fifth Sense directly.

But now, they could only use them to suppress the Taboo Item; if it wasn’t enough, they would need to sacrifice a few captives.

”And after that? The enemy has a Divine Chosen, and they are good at spreading plague. How should we attack the stronghold?” Li Yelai asked, ”From the prisoners, we know that the town has considerable defensive forces and possesses many Taboo Items and ritual methods. Aren’t our forces too few?”

”It is enough, we have us too!” Red Fury looked at Li Yelai, ”We are Divine Chosen, each with our own powerful bearing. When necessary, we can borrow that power! Even just a shred is enough to kill them!”

A shred... the power of the Blood God!

Speaking of which, Li Yelai had yet to try on the face of the Blood God Chosen.

Li Yelai’s consciousness reached the Void Realm; he looked at the blank mask, which moved and shimmered with patterns and colors as he thought.

It was a black pattern of swords and flames, with a base color of blood red.

It looked heroic and ferocious; this was the face of the Blood God Chosen... As long as he wore this mask, Li Yelai could mimic the power of the Divine Chosen, potentially even fooling the Divine into blessing him.

Part-time jobs, part-time jobs, not sure if he could freeload from other Divines once more.

Like that Divine of the Eternal Life Sect, hopefully, He would take a liking to him and give him a chance for improvement.

’All things decay, all beings immortal... Shall I shout to try?’

Li Yelai pondered in his heart, while Red Fury continued, ”Moreover, we must kill him; he might already have gathered information on your identity. If he spreads it, broadcasting it widely, you wouldn’t be able to stay undercover anymore.”

Undercover? That’s right, in the eyes of Red Fury and the others, Li Yelai was a man who had turned from darkness to light, a member of Champion Team One.

He could fully take advantage of this identity to bring greater benefits to them.

In this situation, the fact that Li Yelai had become one of the Divine Chosen must not be known to Giant City. With the idea of killing to silence, they had to kill that Divine Chosen, and to be reimbursed, everyone in the town must be silenced.

Li Yelai nodded slightly to show his agreement. What choice did he have, it was merely a case of dog eating dog!

He was actually eager to see a few Divine Chosen bash each other’s brains out. Later, he would harvest them—souls to Mr. Shadow, heads to Blood River. Maybe he could directly reach the Fifth Sense.

”But your level is too low; even if you gain power, you can’t contend with a Sixth-sense Expert. So, at that time, we will deal with Mo Ya, and you go harvest those elites,” Red Fury said.

”Okay, I understand,” Li Yelai nodded. He certainly wasn’t going to confront Divine Chosen directly, letting them dogfight was best, even hoping that the Divine Chosen Mo Ya could replace these two guys. That... would be interesting!

If they died, then the only Divine Chosen of the place, Li Yelai, would be the boss!

Hey, I wouldn’t be living up to this opportunity if I didn’t loot the entire treasure vault!

”Speaking of which, Emperor’s Fall. Your ability is very special,” Xue Yin asked. ”That Thunder and the Gravity Wave released before, are they your abilities?”

”Didn’t our Lord tell you?” Li Yelai raised an eyebrow and asked, ”I thought you all knew.”

”Oracles are rare; I’ve only received two oracles in total, one of which was to come find you,” Red Fury responded.

”That’s it, huh? It seems our Lord really cherishes me,” Li Yelai introduced, ”I am a Spiritual Ability User of the Wanxiang Path, and my special ability is... to mimic the abilities of different paths of Spiritual Ability Users.”

As he spoke, Li Yelai brushed across his cheek, and a mask emerged, carrying the striking Heavy Pupil scanning all around, causing the two Divine Chosen to feel a hint of unease.

”Is that... the Direct Death Eye of the spiritual eyes?” The two showed shock and then filled with gravity and surprise.

They quickly understood the strength and potential of Li Yelai’s ability—no wonder Lord Blood God valued him so highly!
