Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 898: Chapter 423: Blood Lake

The Jile Sect’s Demon Generals are all eagerly anticipating the Champion Agent being parasitized by the Heartless Fruit.

No matter how he gets parasitized.

Their Jile Sect might gain a powerful Divine Chosen.

The Heartless Fruit was a bizarre entity personally crafted by the Divine.

The moment one is parasitized, that Champion has no other choice.

Under the full corrosive power of the Heartless Fruit, he can’t even conceive thoughts of suicide. He will indulge in extreme hedonism!

Successfully corrupting one who might become a future Champion is an honor almost akin to corrupting a Champion!

It could make the other sects envious to the point of tears of blood.

Especially the Blood God Faction!

“The Champion you Blood God cannot kill, we Jile will kill!”

“The person you Blood God cannot purify, we Jile will accept!”

“Look, such a strong Divine Chosen here. Are you Blood God Faction ashamed?”

“Invincible at the same level, call out your Divine Chosen! I’ll beat its head off!”

“The dignity the Blood God Faction lost, we Jile Sect regained!”

Really want to see the Blood God Faction’s jealous and regretful expressions…

The Jile Demon Generals are impatiently excited. Due to stereotypes, the world assumes the Blood God Faction has the strongest combat strength.

Now, it seems they can reclaim their glory.

Actually, if the Blood God Faction knew the thoughts of the Jile Demon Generals, they might turn red in embarrassment all at once.

The relationship between Jile Sect and Blood God Faction has always been poor, although in certain situations, cooperation does occur between them.

But essentially, they are mortal enemies.

Jile Sect’s pursuit of sensory thrills and extreme hedonism is an eyesore to Blood God Faction.

They pursue enjoyment and thrills, continually pushing the threshold higher.

Sexual desire, appetite, power… these can all be methods Jile Sect uses to breach psychological defenses.

After all, humans cannot avoid the pursuit of desires.

And Blood God Faction, with its enjoyment of battle, killing, and thirst for glory, is also a form of desire. Sometimes, Jile snatch things away.

This makes the Blood God Faction loathe Jile Sect.

If both sides interact, it often leads to bloody conflict.

If they knew Jile Sect was plotting against their Divine Chosen, can you imagine?

…

Meanwhile, on the third floor of Ten Thousand Dragon Lake.

Compared to the scenes of the first and second floors, the third floor resembles the ruins of a powerful civilization.

Abandoned cities stand tall among them, while in the center of the massive ruin town, dangerous creatures lie in wait.

Its heartbeat causes the earth to tremble.

And on a hill hundreds of kilometers away, a tall figure stands.

He is clad in Ming Guang Armor, draped in a blood-colored cloak.

Just by standing there, he exudes an extreme sense of pressure.

Causing extraordinary creatures within dozens of kilometers around to dare not make a peep.

The last creature that didn’t have eyes was already cut to pieces.

And he is none other than the Eighth Generation Champion, Yang Chen!

He watches the distant giant ruins silently, finally sighing: “Indeed… I’m still too weak. After all this time, I still haven’t managed to break through.”

“Do your words bring you guilt?” A graceful, tall woman with an unusually pale complexion walks from behind.

She is the captain of the Fifth Team, Cang Bai.

Her skin color comes from her curse, which also gives her a nickname.

Unlike the fair skin of a young girl, her skin was a lifeless pale.

As a result, though she is clearly charming with an impressive figure, no one dares to approach.

That ink-like long hair spills over, appearing lifeless and ominous against the pale complexion.

At this moment, she stands beside Yang Chen, watching the distant giant ruins together.

“The reason why Ten Thousand Dragon Lake has so many unique dragon blood species is because of that place,” Cang Bai said: “Otherwise, by normal development, it wouldn’t have produced so many hybrid species.”

“That’s also the reason why the Heartless Fruit can rapidly grow and spread,” Yang Chen nodded: “We still have to find a way to break in and destroy that place.”

According to their investigations, deep within the huge ruin, there is a Blood Lake.

A vast number of life forms are bred in the Blood Lake.

From time to time, new extraordinary creatures are born from it.

Without exception, they all possess Abyss Dragon bloodline.

They mutually slaughter, eliminate, devour, and drive away.

Ultimately, they populate the three-layered space of Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, forming its rich array of extraordinary species.

But, when Ten Thousand Dragon Lake got controlled by Jile Sect.

The Heartless Fruit also leveraged these extraordinary creatures, completing rapid iterations.

Eventually, it grew to what it is today.

To prevent the Heartless Fruit from continuing to spread and to restrict the number of hosts as much as possible.

Yang Chen sealed off the third-layer channel and planned to destroy the Blood Lake.

Otherwise, with extraordinary creatures continuously flowing out, teammates on the second layer would be at risk, and the ground on the first layer would face danger.

However, the residual sound avatars within those ruins slowed down his advance considerably.

Once entering the ruins, avatars would appear.

And as the Overlord, the avatars he draws are naturally of Overlord caliber.

They are strong from the former civilization of Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, some are human sages, some masters of the Forbidden Zone, others are some alien monsters.

Perfectly duplicated by the ruins, they cross time to battle with Yang Chen!

It is fortunate that Yang Chen’s combat power is spectacular, killing his way to this point.

After all, he is the Champion, even facing the previous civilization of Ten Thousand Dragon Lake and the masters of Disaster Fog throughout the ages, he can suppress them by force.

Watching the silent Yang Chen, Cang Bai feels bitter and sympathetic, she sighs: “Still us… dragging you down.”
