Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 968: Chapter 461: Legacy

Under immense pressure, the Female Knight’s blood quickly drained away.

No longer able to hold up, her form began to disintegrate.

Yet beneath her helmet came the King’s words of gratitude.

“Thank you, Champion… the residual sound of this hero has shattered, we need to communicate through the next residual sound.”

“Please be cautious, do not get distracted.”

The moment the King’s voice fell, the Female Knight’s body shattered explosively.

Meanwhile, Li Ye seized the opportunity to remove the Face, retreat to the edge to recuperate his spiritual energy and stamina.

He really wanted to carefully discuss with the last King of Ming Xia how to shatter the plans of the Jile Sect.

But this King now seems more like a wandering ghost in the Inheritance Land.

Although He possesses certain authority and power, He cannot control the challenges of the Inheritance Land, nor can He decide the intensity of projections, only able to communicate.

And Li Ye, to communicate with him, must deal with increasingly powerful residual sound avatars while communicating with the King.

Of course, most of the time, it was the King who was narrating.

At first, the intensity of the residual sound avatars wasn’t high, so Li Ye could still ponder responses while handling enemies.

But just now, the Female Knight of the sixth residual sound was already quite strong in combat.

The abilities were perfectly matched.

Even though Li Ye had the blessing of the Mythical Mimicries of the Qilin and the Kunpeng, along with a powerful physique.

He was still forced to use the Face, which meant You Must Meet Strong Enemies might have already been triggered.

The enemies to follow will certainly be even stronger!

This forced Li Ye to remain vigilant, obediently returning to the edge safe zone to restore spiritual energy and stamina.

If eliminated at this time, he would no longer be able to communicate with the King.

“The Female Knight just now was someone of the Sixth Sense Period of Ming Xia Civilization’s Supreme… After this, could the King appear next?” Li Ye pondered.

The effect of You Must Meet Strong Enemies keeps triggering, making it increasingly difficult for Li Ye to fight through the remaining trials.

This might be even more challenging than the Divine Chosen challenges of the Jile Sect.

“In this setting, You Must Meet Strong Enemies becomes even more dangerous, surely it won’t prevent me from getting past the seventh, right?”

Li Ye thought to himself, once again lamenting the trouble of You Must Meet Strong Enemies.

Then, he silently began restoring his spiritual energy.

If during the subsequent actions, Li Ye could obtain the King’s assistance, everything would naturally go smoothly.

Currently, two difficulties obstruct Li Ye’s path.

First, the authority of the ruins; once exposed, Li Ye’s identity will be revealed, and his authority will be revoked. Those residual sound avatars alone are enough to trouble Li Ye.

Second, the Chaos Holy Artifact; its ability is powerful, and it can also summon projections of a Prince or Great Demon. The peak combat strength is comparable to the Supreme.

If the King assists, these two risks might be eliminated.

But the price is that the last King of Ming Xia Civilization would die completely.

If possible, Li Ye hopes this human King can survive. He is the Tomb Guardian of Ming Xia Civilization and the Protector of the Fire Seed Humans. He is a hero willing to sacrifice everything for his people and comrades, who should not have such an ending.

Both need to carefully discuss their plan.

Subsequently, once Li Ye’s spiritual energy was fully restored, he stepped onto the battlefield again.

At this moment, the surrounding scenery once again changed; indeed, this Inheritance Land is quite unkind, providing the residual sound avatars with the most suitable environment and battlefield. It has implicitly enhanced the intensity of the residual sound avatars.

Now, the battlefield transformed into a vast wasteland, where countless yellow sands filled the air.

Simultaneously, a gigantic human figure emerged, a knight mounted on a fearsome giant beast, wielding a cavalry spear, clad in black-gray wave plate armor.

His fierce beast steed was even more formidable and dignified, fully armored in heavy armor, with two massive tusks protruding forward. His powerful muscles rippling. The mount alone is not simple!

“Even comes with a mount, huh?” Li Ye was a bit surprised, unfortunately, the Mad Dragon of Old Ma Seven was still being armored and repaired, otherwise, Li Ye could have transformed into a cavalryman to match against him.

The yellow sands obscured the sky, and amid the sands, the King’s voice resonated.

‘Champion, our luck isn’t great, this Old General… once fought the Catastrophe Fog Master with an elderly body! A powerful Supreme indeed! His steed, a rare exotic companion, personally nurtured by him. At the same time, he… was also my teacher and the teacher of many senior siblings. Regrettably, he couldn’t witness the rise of Ming Xia… He died before the dawn. Only leaving behind this residual sound avatar….’

The King’s teacher? Or perhaps the King’s Protector?

Indeed, the Ming Xia Civilization was once gloriously splendid, but initially struggled to survive amidst the mixed battles of two Disaster Fogs, two civilizations.

They too had endured exceptionally tough times, where human pioneers sacrificed tremendously to ensure the survival of more talented human descendants.

To eliminate future threats, neither humans nor other adversarial life forms would allow the enemies’ Heavenly Pride to survive.

One’s foe was another’s hero!

The Old Mad King of those times succeeded in advancing to King status under the shelter of various human pioneers.

When he transformed into the Six-Armed Bronze Demon God, daunting all Forbidden Zones and safeguarding humans, the wishes of the human pioneers were fulfilled.

Now, the Old Mad King has taken over this responsibility, fostering the growth and rise of human Heavenly Pride.

At least before he died, the Forbidden Zones dared not act recklessly!

Now, we must face such an existence.
