Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 924: Chapter 437: Pinned to the Ground and Beaten!

Li Ye Lai was clad in Gold-Plated Bright Armor, wielding a Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd, with a blood-red ring-headed knife at his waist, and a Champion Cloak billowing behind him.

Even before he made a move, the ferocious fighting spirit and dignity were enough to instill fear and caution in his enemies.

After Li Ye Lai ascended to the Sixth Sense, the dark blood stains on the Champion Cloak became more solid and vivid.

Like a Black Dragon roaring to the heavens, and like the Great Wall standing firmly!

Within these blood stains lies the blood and tears of human champions throughout the ages, mixed with the blood of humanity’s enemies.

In the long years of battle, it has been stained with too much blood and tears of mighty warriors.

That blood caused a rather miraculous transformation, seemingly granting it a sort of self-awareness.

Li Ye Lai could feel its triumph and fervor at this moment.

Indeed, it came from a future three thousand years ahead.

From that pure human, almost extinct despairing future.

According to official understanding, humans in that era no longer hoped to reclaim the world.

Instead, they intended to utilize the terrifying Calamity to drag all the Alien Races with them, burying them along with human civilization!

Chaos, Alien Race, Forbidden Zone, death, all die together with me!

This Champion Cloak has witnessed countless fierce battles over three thousand years, fighting side by side with champions, battling the heavens!

Even at mankind’s most desperate moments, the human champions were the most reliable warriors!

But no matter how fiercely they fought, the Champion Cloak could only watch helplessly as one mighty human warrior after another died at the hands of destiny.

At times, it was furious, trying to defy fate alongside the champions, but ultimately, they failed.

And as the last champion fell in battle, it became a trophy of the Alien Race.

What humiliation, what desecration!

But half-destroyed and a part of history, it was powerless to change anything.

However, fate altered in an instant… It crossed three thousand years of history, returning to this space-time!

Ultimately, it returned to Li Ye Lai’s hands.

Though its abilities differ somewhat from memory, this is indeed the former ally, the Ninth Generation Champion!

That solitary champion, that King of Candle Night!

This brings it joy and nostalgia!

After three thousand years, it sees old friends once more.

Though, this old friend no longer remembers it…

Now that Li Ye Lai has ascended to the Sixth Sense, to celebrate the Ninth Generation Champion’s rise, it shall give its greatest response!

A vast battle spirit fills the Void Realm!

‘What you’re facing is the human champion!’

The ethereal voice echoes in the Void Realm, as if countless voices are shouting in unison.

Li Ye Lai was surprised by the cloak’s response but chose to satisfy the Champion Cloak’s expectations, pointing his long spear at He Lan.

And at this moment, He Lan let out a sinister laugh: “Good, very arrogant!”

He indeed regretted it, regretted not sparing no cost to kill Li Ye Lai before he ascended.

Now, this Night General is somewhat troublesome.

But he will personally correct this mistake!

What does the Sixth Sense matter? What does qualitative change in combat prowess mean?

You are still not my match!

The gap between the Sixth Sense and Overlord is one you cannot cross!

He Lan took a deep breath, and his remaining three avatars instantly turned to black smoke, dissipating.

Power returned to his body, and a giant Space Cube nearly fifty meters wide, long, and high materialized.

Enclosing He Lan within.

Evidently, he was wary of Li Ye Lai’s speed, wanting to use Near and far to further confine Li Ye Lai.

This enormous Space Cube has internal spatial folding of hundreds of miles.

At the very least, it can stall for a time!

Meanwhile, behind him appeared a vast azure ring, the manifestation of his Soul Well.

With the emergence of the Soul Well, an invisible force cascaded down, causing subtle changes to his body; the color of his skin and flesh seemed to grow paler, nearing whiteness and becoming ethereal.

This was the ability he gained by taking the power of a certain Forbidden Zone Prince’s offspring.

That Heaven’s Chosen Son was one of the most esteemed beings in the Forbidden Zone, akin to a Crown Prince.

The power in his bloodline made his talents remarkably extraordinary.

If he were to grow, he would inevitably rise to Supreme, possibly even King!

But he had no chance; during his trial.

He Lan found him, snatching his formidable abilities right under the noses of the Forbidden Zone guards!

Path of Zero·Reversed Heavenly Person!

Once this ability is activated, the user’s body becomes spiritual energy- and divinity-infused.

Combat prowess greatly enhanced, as long as divinity remains undamaged and spiritual energy persists.

Even if suffering fatal injuries, he can quickly heal and continue the fight!

This is a supremely potent ability, obtainable only through the Forbidden Zone King’s bloodline inheritance!

That Forbidden Zone Prince had not grown to perfectly utilize this move before He Lan killed him.

It is one of He Lan’s trump cards, once activating Reverse Heavenly Person, combat prowess will surge dramatically. But afterward, he will enter a period of weakness. If consumed greatly, he might be without combat capabilities for several days.

In the original plan, it was a trump card reserved for Eighth Generation Champion Yang Chen.

But… Killing one champion is no different than killing another, right?

Let me kill the Ninth Generation Night General first, then the Eighth Generation Yang Chen, and thereafter be undefeated in the world!

But at the next moment, he swiftly raised the long spear to stab!

Because the instant he initiated Reverse Heavenly Person, Li Ye Lai transformed into a streak of golden light scarcely perceivable by the naked eye, instantly penetrating Near and far.

His current speed was so rapid, with the ethereal golden wings slightly fluttering, he traversed a hundred-mile distance in the folded space within ten seconds. Directly confronting He Lan.
