Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 962: Chapter 458: Inheritance

Li Yelai didn’t know how Lan Shi accomplished it, but he still affirmed Lan Shi.

This made Lan Shi extremely excited, as last night’s efforts were not in vain.

To complete the Divine Chosen One’s command, he urgently summoned over ten Spiritual Ability Craftsmen using newly acquired privileges and maintained their spirits and wills with various drugs, having them jointly forge this exquisite armor. After multiple tests, the strong performance was confirmed.

This cost the Spiritual Ability Craftsmen greatly in terms of physical toll, but he indeed completed the task.

He knew too well how to please the higher-ups.

That’s also the reason he could climb to such status step by step.

Which higher-up doesn’t like subordinates who can over-fulfill tasks?

He would therefore receive more tasks and more privileges.

He wanted to climb higher one step at a time!

As he began to imagine himself being heavily used by the Divine Chosen One, above tens of thousands.

Meanwhile, Li Yelai began familiarizing himself with the Ming Guang Armor’s abilities.

The mysterious material of this armor comes from the True Martial Path, Blade Armor Rebound.

This is a Sixth Sense True Martial Path ability, categorized under Body Enhancement.

It can enhance one’s body defensive power and has a powerful rebound effect.

Within a certain range, it counterattacks the opponent; the stronger the opponent’s attack, the stronger the counterattack.

Yet, it has a range limit, and the most Li Yelai knew was an official captain who maintained the range within fifty meters, which is theoretically the maximum.

He once killed over a thousand Insect Race within the Insect Swarm due to the rebound.

Even remote attacks within the range would be countered by the rebound, but beyond the range, there would be no rebound.

Now, made into Spiritual Ability Equipment, the rebound range was cut to only ten meters. Still, the rebound effect is considerable.

As long as Li Yelai himself could endure, then in close combat, the opponent would be rebounded into serious injuries, maybe even instant death.

It’s a power that complements the Eternal Chosen One’s strength.

Adding rebound to an already tough body; close combat becomes unplayable.

It’s a formidable ability, especially for the True Martial Path with strong defensive power.

Captain Yang Chen once hoped to acquire this ability, but his Undying Blood Flame was more suitable for him.

Now, he’s promoted to the Seventh Awakening, awakening the Undying Golden Body.

His defensive power is terrifyingly immense, plus the Blessing of Oath doubles his own defensive power as long as he’s not hurt. If hurt, there’s Undying Blood Flame to repair.

It sounds solid… It’s said, he could even withstand the Overlord Weapon…

After all, he’s the Champion…

As Li Yelai pondered, he experimented twice with Blade Armor Rebound, becoming increasingly satisfied with this Ming Guang Armor.

“Sir, would you like to look at other mysterious materials, and if you fancy any, forge new Spiritual Ability Equipment?” Lan Shi said. He had received some equipment from the Treasure Vault, and with this adorned, he now had some air.

“No need for now.” Li Yelai replied: “Any insights into those Ye Boshou?”

“Ye Boshou, you mean the outsiders?” Lan Shi responded respectfully, “Search teams from various states are still looking for them, without any effective results. Their powers are too strong, and if they truly want to hide, it’s difficult for us to find them.”

Lan Shi carefully guessed Li Yelai’s thoughts, ‘Sir might have some compassion towards former companions and wouldn’t want any derogatory words before him.’

Li Yelai was not surprised, as after all, Ye Boshou were all Four Awakenings, Fifth Sense powerhouses. With the Imitative Heavenly Soldier and other resources Li Yelai brought, their safety should be temporarily ensured.

They might be lurking in the forests outside the ruins.

“What’s the progress of Mad Dragon?”

Li Yelai had told the Church that he intended to use Mad Dragon’s corpse as a mount. The Church would repair Mad Dragon’s broken body and install ‘horse armor’ and saddle on it.

“I have urged and sent people to oversee it, but the soonest would be tomorrow, sir.” Lan Shi responded.

“As soon as possible.” Li Yelai replied.

Though, it all came free, earlier acquisition gives me another ace when needed.

Subsequently, Lan Shi explained, of the Legion he controlled.

The sub-branch upper echelons and Fallen Wish Chosen One discussed, deciding to allocate a legion as Li Yelai’s direct troops.

Know that, the sub-branch now only has three legions, allocating one-third of the troop strength in one go is considered sincere.

Yet the elite troops are few, only more than five hundred Desire Demons, the rest being fervent believers, very few Spiritual Ability Users.

Compared with the Blood God Faction, not as generous.

Still fine, a mosquito is meat.

Li Yelai said: “Drill the legion well.”

“Yes!” Lan Shi responded, “Your will is where our blades aim!”

Li Yelai wasn’t too concerned, if it were Bai Ya, this legion might really accomplish that even against another Divine Chosen One.

While Lan Shi probably couldn’t achieve this.

Bai Ya is loyal personally to Li Yelai, whereas Lan Shi is loyal to power itself.

…

When Li Yelai appeared before Fallen Wish, donned in Ming Guang Armor, draped with Champion Cloak.

Fallen Wish and several Demon Generals’ hearts momentarily stalled.

That terrifying pressure seemed as if they were facing a real Champion.

While in size and air, Li Yelai differed much from Yang Chen, those pure and intense battle spirits were identical.
