Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 779: Chapter 364 Countermeasures_2

If enhancing the curse causes that voice to appear, could suppressing the curse possibly reverse this outcome?

“I’ll give it a try first. Divine Demon Stele, suppress the curse!” Li Yelai took a deep breath as he began to channel Spiritual Energy into the Divine Demon Stele in the Soul Well.

As the Spiritual Energy flowed into it, the divine demon carvings on it seemed to come to life, emitting countless lights and shadows.

At the same time, an invisible domain unfolded—perhaps due to not being able to fully control it, the domain’s range wasn’t large, just about ten meters in diameter.

“Did it work?” Toy blinked and asked, unable to tell whether the curse had been successfully suppressed, just like Li Yelai and Toy herself.

Thus, Li Yelai said toward the door, “Teammate.”

The next second, Little Mad King walked through the door.

She stopped, looked at Toy for a few seconds, and a hint of a smile appeared on her beautiful and cool face. In her view, a beautiful and attractive girl was standing next to Li Yelai. Though surrounded by a sense of fear on the beautiful girl—which could still invoke fear if looked at for too long—at least, for a short while, she saw Toy’s appearance.

“Still wrapped in some sense of fear, but… congratulations, Toy. Also, you look pretty…” Little Mad King slightly smiled in praise.

This delighted Toy, and Li Yelai also showed a smile.

“Ye Han that beast turns out to be somewhat useful.”

Initially, the Divine Demon Stele could not suppress Toy’s curse.

After enhancing the Divine Demon Stele once inside the Immortal Palace, its suppression ability was greatly enhanced. Though it couldn’t perfectly suppress it, it allowed Toy to communicate normally with outsiders.

Ye Han, Ye Han, you turned out to be somewhat useful, which is a good thing!

Toy, Little Mad King, Li Yunyan, and others had been tormented by the curse for too long. Now, could they at least have a meal together?

Then Toy suddenly asked, “Is Jiang Ling’s curse also suppressed?”

“Yes,” Li Yelai nodded. As long as it was within the range of the domain, he could suppress the curse on a specified target.

It was still unknown whether this Divine Demon Stele could suppress the Old Mad King’s curse.

If it could, hahaha… let those Kings of the Forbidden Zone see how the character for ‘mad’ is written!

Among the kings, the Old Mad King’s combat strength was extremely strong, easily taking on Kings of the Forbidden Zone in single combat.

Without the curse of limited lifespan, Old Mad King could unleash his full power without any reservations!

Wouldn’t he beat the shit out of the Kings of the Forbidden Zone?

“Do you still… distrust me?” Little Mad King asked, “In what way?”

“No, not anymore…” Toy pursed her lips; the current Little Mad King did not make her feel guarded anymore, but there was still some indescribable doubt, or perhaps concern?

“Since it can suppress the curse, can it also enhance the curse?” Little Mad King asked.

This was the most powerful aspect of Ye Han, as enhancing curses was too terrifying for Spiritual Ability Users.

If Li Yelai gained this ability, it would truly be defying the heavens!

In combat, a single curse enhancement, if the opponent’s curse affected themselves, there wouldn’t even need to be a fight; the opponent might just die from the curse.

“Unfortunately, no,” Li Yelai shook his head.

“Don’t know how to operate it?”

“No, just need to reverse the Divine Demon Stele to enhance the curse. I can hear the mysterious Buddhist sound, but I cannot unfold the domain…”

This was the most awkward part, perhaps due to incompatibility with the Divine Demon Stele or another issue.

The domain for suppressing curses can be opened, but not the domain for enhancing curses.

Or rather said, it cannot be expanded.

Limited only within the Spiritual Power Well of Li Yelai.

Unless someone could enter into Li Yelai’s Spiritual Power Well… in which case, Li Yelai himself would most likely be dead.

Of course, although he couldn’t enhance someone else’s curse, he… could enhance his own.

Li Yelai really did not understand why the Divine Demon Stele couldn’t suppress his own Calamity but could enhance his own Calamity?

However, this also counts as an extreme method.

An enhanced Calamity had a terrifying destructive power—enough to destroy celestial palaces. If used during a fight with an enemy… it would be a test to see whose life was tougher.

At this moment, a powerful being in the Void Realm shouted, “All captains, please come to the conference room for a meeting.”

Due to the interference from the palace, this voice did not travel far, but the Spiritual Ability Users within the base heard the call.

…

When Li Yelai and the other two arrived at the temporarily set-up conference room.

Toy, with her helmet removed, attracted many gazes.

“Who is that? She’s so beautiful.”

“Unfamiliar indeed, wearing a golden windbreaker, is she from your Giant City’s team?”

“I don’t think so, we’ve met all official captains beforehand.”

“The one beside her is from City No.3’s Champion Agent… damn, could it be Toy Captain?”

“She’s that pretty?”

“Her curse… has been suppressed?”

“Ye Han that beast did leave something good behind.”

“I’m so jealous…”

Hearing the outside world’s praise and amazement made Toy blush slightly. She was very active online, but in reality, she was quite shy.

“I knew it, how did you, a Champion Agent, get taken down? Turns out your girlfriend is so pretty. Even I am moved, Toy Sister, gender doesn’t need to be so rigid~~~ I am also okay with it.” Mo He, sitting in a wheelchair, was pushed closer by Ma Hongyi. Injured in both arms and legs, Mo He still joked around.

Ma Hongyi said, “Looks should be ineffective against Old Li, I think Toy probably used some other methods.”

“+1”

The two esteemed figures nodded with a smile, obviously having a very stereotypical image of Champion Team One and began guessing what method Toy might have used.
