Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 580: Chapter 271 Catastrophe is Upon Us! _2

After the initial panic subsided, elite experts gradually stabilized the battle and began to suppress the ancient creatures.

The enemy was few, we were many, the advantage was ours!

As long as we could hold off the overlord in front of us, and wait for other Demon Generals to lead the elite and the legion to surround and annihilate those Sixth Sense ancient experts, the enemy would be completely unable to turn the tables.

However, at that moment, the Old Demon General and the ancient overlord’s expressions changed simultaneously.

Because they sensed that extremely terrifying energy fluctuation from underground.

The earth was trembling, endless power was roaring, and the Ten Thousand Mountains of Qinling were shaking.

An earthquake? Such a powerful earthquake? How could this be?

After the Disaster Fog intervened in Qinling, there was a spatial fold; not only did the internal space enlarge, but tens of thousands of mountains emerged, somewhat disconnected from the physical world.

Even if there was tectonic movement leading to an earthquake, its power should have been greatly diminished.

But at that very moment… The Old Demon General stared in horror at the mountain where the treasure vault was located; he could distinctly feel that terrifying energy roaring right below it!

The epicenter was under the treasure vault? Go to hell, how could that be possible?

That was among the ten sturdiest mountains!

No, that’s not right…

“Lord Di Yun, get out of the treasure vault!” the Old Demon General nearly went mad.

Previously, he had sworn to protect Lord Di Yun and had even invited him into the treasure vault.

And it hadn’t even been a quarter of an hour.

What was once an incredibly safe treasure vault had turned into a deadly danger zone!

What have I done, sending Lord Di Yun into a death trap?

Humans! To kill Lord Di Yun, would they use such a terrible weapon? Damn it!

“Hurry, open the gate, get out of here!” the Old Demon General completely lost his mind, his Spiritual Energy surged, and with a spear, he repelled an ancient expert, trying to rush into the treasure vault to rescue Lord Di Yun.

His loyalty was immense, but the ancient overlord saw this and came at him with a laugh.

Furiously punching to block the Old Demon General.

Although he didn’t know what had happened, he was sure that if the Chaos Chosen One was still in the so-called treasure vault,

He would inevitably die under this suddenly emerged terrifying energy!

It was a horrifying force that even the overlord found alarming, and because these Ten Thousand Mountains contained countless extraordinary ore veins,

Once affected by this force, it could potentially trigger a further terrible collision—inflicting secondary damage to this land!

Then, hold the Old Demon General back and let him watch as the Chaos Chosen dies in this catastrophe.

“Supreme Heaven! Is this your blessing? Ha ha ha ha ha ha!” the ancient overlord laughed.

And the Old Demon General saw a scene that made his liver and gall blanch.

The entire mountain, the entire mountain range, burst forth with terrifying tremors.

The ground cracked, revealing huge fissures. A vast abyss appeared at the core of the Main Base!

Countless buildings and soldiers fell into the abyss in terror.

Meanwhile, the mountain where the treasure vault was situated was also collapsing and tilting. The gate of the treasure vault, built from countless extraordinary metals and materials within the valley, also twisted under the influence of this force!

“No!!!”

The Old Demon General screamed in horror, and the other Demon Generals roared crazily.

Inside the treasure vault were the accumulations of the Main Base over decades, including the Chaos Holy Artifact.

If destroyed, it would be an irreplaceable colossal loss!

To lose a Chosen One deeply favored by the Blood God, and then lose the decades-long foundation of the Main Base?

What kind of nightmare was this? Why was this happening?

“Hurry and open the gate! At least let Lord Di Yun out!” the Demon Generals screamed in terror.

And the ancient experts, previously suppressed, now sneered as they held the Demon Generals back.

…

Elsewhere, having reached the first layer, Li Yelai saw from a distance the twisted metal gate.

The soldiers guarding the first layer were frantically trying to pry the gate open, but to little avail.

At the same time, everyone could feel the treasure vault disintegrating, tilting!

This sent chills through Li Yelai, damn it, he was almost screwed!

This catastrophe was frightfully terrifying!

Li Yelai felt as if Death was attacking from behind, ready to reap his life at any moment.

But he quickly calmed down, his Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd dancing in his hands.

At the same time, with the aid of the Shadow Army, he dashed toward the gate, and less than ten meters from the gate, he quickly switched his Face!

Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu!

Overlord’s Double Pupils Appear! Weakness Perception!

There were already too many weaknesses on the twisted gate!

Single-handed Eighteen Strokes·Elephant Step!

In the surprised gazes of the soldiers, Li Yelai swung his long spear, directly tearing apart the gate.

He tore a man-sized crack in the metal gate.

Li Yelai rushed out of the gate instantly, a barely perceptible figure following closely behind him.

Afterward, the believers frantically scrambled towards the gate, but due to crowding and struggling against each other, only a few managed to escape through the gate.

…

On the other side, seeing the Emperor’s Fall Chosen One breaking through the gate and escaping the treasure vault, the entangled Demon Generals were overjoyed.

They shouted simultaneously, “Run!”

“Lord Di Yun, hurry!”

“We’ll hold them off…”

Li Yelai remained silent; the danger was not yet over! Even after leaving the dangerous vault, the outside world was extremely perilous.

More than ten Sixth-sense Experts and two Overlords were battling nearby, and any slight distraction could lead to severe injuries.

Thus, the moment he burst out of the vault, Li Yelai switched his Face. Wolf Vanquisher of Juxu, Huo Qubing!

He activated the Shadow Army once more! Swift as the Wind!

Leading eight hundred light cavalry shadows, he dashed towards the distance at the greatest speed.

‘Shadow Army? How does he, a Fifth Sense, have this ability?’ The Ancient Creatures were astonished and immediately took action, attempting to kill Li Yelai.

“Don’t even think about it!” The Demon Generals fought desperately, effectively blocking their attacks.

But Li Yelai was still hit by an attack. It was a female Ancient Creature, with an appearance close to human, yet possessing an unusually elongated body and pointed ears.

Her eyes burst forth with red light, and a giant tree emerged behind her.

The next second, Li Yelai faced a tsunami-like spiritual attack.

“Ah!” In that instant, blood spurted from Li Yelai’s mouth and nose, and his heart momentarily stopped. If not for the Little Mad King’s support from the shadows, he might have faltered.

He roared furiously, his gold-plated pupils lighting up.

Mimicry·Divine Hidden Dragon Soul!

A majestic Golden Dragon appeared, circling around his Virtual Realm Projection. He managed to withstand the spiritual attack!

Under the angry gazes of the Ancient Creatures, he burst several kilometers away.

Meanwhile, the Old Demon General also resolutely counterattacked to block the Overseers’ pursuit.

The other Demon Generals shouted in unison, “We welcome the Great Demon’s descent!”

Lord Di Yun was temporarily safe, but the treasure vault was still in danger. To protect both Lord Di Yun and the vault,

The Demon Generals hesitated no more and directly initiated an Evil Ceremony, intending to summon the Great Demon Projection!

Blood Sacrifice? So many corpses of Army and Spiritual Ability Users in this valley were sufficient to summon the projection!

Then, under their united chant,

Terrifying Spiritual Energy bloomed from deep within the vault, as the Great Demon’s head gradually awoke.

The Chaos Demon from deep within the Void Realm entered the Physical World through the Blood Sacrifice Projection!

A giant blood-red shadow hand suddenly extended from the vault, grasping towards the Ancient Overlord in midair.

The Ancient Overlord punched out, colliding with the hand, resulting in a massive explosion.

It even produced a mushroom cloud.

But in the next second, whether Ancient Creatures or Chaos Demon Generals, all turned pale.

Because, the immense energy located underground fully erupted, engulfing the entire mountain where the vault was located in a huge abyss-like fissure, and the Abyss began closing.

The force released shook the entire Ten Thousand Mountains.

The Great Demon Projection roared, a hundred-meter-tall red demon projection appeared, its back against the mountain and the vault, arms supporting, resisting the Abyss.

“Even if I bear the mountain and support the vault…” the Great Demon Projection roared: “Damn it!”

The next second, the projection shattered.

The Abyss closed, burying the entire vault!

Not only that, but the moment the Abyss closed, the long-incubating force exploded!

Mightier than any force released during the Ancient Overlord and Great Demon Projection battle, it detonated with extreme force!

“Boom!”

The massive explosion shattered dozens of nearby mountains!
