Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 971: Chapter 462: Shadow Army·Wind and Thunder Strike_2

Killing them will result in being parasitized and eventually becoming one of them after some time.

To spread the Heartless Fruit, those rebels would even gladly die.

With no clear difference in strength between the two sides, their only option was sealing. The Ming Chi King and the Mingxia Civilization’s mightiest paid a hefty price to seal a great number of rebels.

Now, the relics sealing those rebels have fallen into the hands of the Jile Sect.

It truly is the worst-case scenario.

“How long has it been since they were sealed?”

“By the standards of physical world time, it should be over five hundred years…”

“Can a King live for over five hundred years?”

“Of course, after becoming a King, the throne provides power directly from the Void Realm, granting a lifespan so long that it’s tedious. No King in Ming Xia or the contact with the two Disaster Fog civilizations has ever died of old age.” The Ming Chi King said, “But within the seal, the Void Realm is isolated, and even a King would wither… perhaps already killed by time. No one can know what the situation is inside the seal.”

Li Ye felt a heaviness in his heart, realizing he had obtained incredible intelligence.

Thanks to his contact with the Ming Chi King, otherwise, the plan might have really encountered a major mishap.

This intelligence needs to be delivered to the authorities quickly.

Li Ye thought.

Meanwhile, the Shield Formation in front of Li Ye was violently torn open by a drill that the old general had transformed into.

Whether it was Li Ye’s Shield Guards or the old general’s Heavy Cavalry, they both dissipated and then reformed!

In that moment, both of their actions were perfectly synchronized, with the old general lifting his cavalry spear high, and Li Ye raising his long spear.

The old general’s exotic mount furiously charged forward, while the golden wings behind Li Ye flapped.

Their Shadow Army also transformed into Heavy Cavalry at the same time.

Then, both simultaneously charged and spun! Like a storm! Sweeping up vast amounts of yellow sand and crashing together!

Wind and Thunder Heavy Strike!

The same move, the same ability!

Clashing at this moment!

The terrifying impact that erupted, filled the entire desert.

After over ten seconds, the overwhelming sand settled.

A figure emerged from the sand, surprisingly it was the old general.

But after rushing out dozens of meters, his exotic beast mount cried mournfully and collapsed. Its body had been pierced through, unable to charge any longer…

Even the old general was thrown to the ground, he used his cavalry spear to stand up, gently patting the head of the exotic beast, seemingly in comfort.

His armor and body… were also torn apart.

The solid plate armor twisted and shattered, and his aged yet mighty flesh was pierced through.

Assaulted by the Shadow Army attacks he himself created… by the Wind and Thunder Heavy Strike!

Looking at Li Ye in the distance, he seemed to be letting out a laugh of exhilaration and joy.

As if extremely delighted by Li Ye mastering his Wind and Thunder Heavy Strike.

Subsequently, his body began to collapse.

“Thank you for the guidance.” Li Ye saluted the old general, “I have mastered this move.”

Through the fight just now, Li Ye had mastered that powerful Shadow Army attack. Only those who grasp the Shadow Army can understand its intricacies.

The Shadow Army’s formation is a powerful weapon for group battles, also capable of dealing with large extraordinary creatures.

Li Ye had once used Move like a Thunderbolt to topple a huge Insect Race.

But when dealing with human-sized enemies, the Shadow Army is relatively weaker.

It’s like a raging waterfall, which might destroy a dam but can’t smash through sharp reefs.

And now, the Wind and Thunder Heavy Strike technique channels the power of the Heavy Cavalry’s charge into a single point, piercing through matters.

Transforming the ‘waterfall’ into a ‘super high-pressure water gun,’ shredding all obstacles!

In one-on-one situations, its effect is exceptionally potent!

It can be foreseen that hereafter, Li Ye’s ‘Cute Star Sky Collision’ will be even more formidable!

Simultaneously, he also understood the purpose of the Inheritance Land.

It wasn’t just for challengers to acquire powerful legacies, but also to gain the combat techniques of the sages’ projections!

This made Li Ye feel deeply moved. The Mingxia Civilization had indeed thought of so much for the Flame…

“It is I who should thank you. When the teacher died in battle, he couldn’t find a second strong person to attain the Shadow Army, which was his regret.” A voice from the Ming Chi King came from the old general’s mouth: “Even though it’s just a projection, I hope it can bring him comfort…”

“So, oh great King, does this mean we are like brothers?” Li Ye asked.

“Hahaha, with a junior disciple like you, I am happy.” The Ming Chi King laughed, “The next one will be even more formidable, come challenge again when fully rested.”

“Alright.” Li Ye nodded.

The next moment, the old general’s body dissipated.

Once again, Li Ye felt regret and sorrow for the Mingxia Civilization.

Then, he walked out of the desert, reaching the edge.

While recovering spiritual energy and stamina, he took out paper and pen from the Ark Storage Space, and after spending some time wrote two reports.

Changing into a suit and donning the Copper Face, he directly activated the ark ticket.

From the Ming Chi King, he had gained intelligence on the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake and the Mingxia Civilization, which needed to be delivered to the authorities quickly.

Within this Inheritance Space, the Jile Sect doesn’t know what he is doing, making it the best opportunity.

Soon, as spiritual energy infused the ticket.

The sensation of weightlessness hit while his vision was engulfed in white light.

When the white light faded, Li Ye found himself within the ark.

Li Ye first spoke: “Captain, please help me contact Shan Cha and Li Ming. Also, help me open the secret space. Don’t let the others see us.”

“Sure, Copper Face… it seems like where you are is quite peculiar.” The Captain remarked, “What, have you been visiting the Ember Church again?”

“Exactly, they kowtow, I couldn’t refuse, right?” Li Ye responded casually.

Then, Li Ye looked at the wall, checking if the murals had changed.

Taking a closer look, he really noticed changes.

It was the fourth mural, originally blurry, now showing some details.

At the edge of the painting, Li Ye saw the Insect Swarm!

Upon scrutiny, he confirmed, it was indeed the Hunting Insect from the Slaughter Insect Swarm.

The Slaughter Insect Swarm appearing in Disaster Fog No. 49?

This… Li Ye wasn’t sure if it was good or bad news.

Disaster Fog No. 49 materializes the greatest fears of intelligent beings, transforming them into Horror Demons.

If someone saw the Slaughter Insect Swarm, then the swarm would appear as a Horror Demon.

But whether or not there’s an Insect Master is uncertain.

Confirming the appearance of a Slaughter Insect Swarm indicates that among those consumed by the Disaster Fog, there must be someone who had come to No.3 Border City. Or simply survivors from the Disaster Fog. This somewhat narrows down the range.

Moreover, the Insect Race is indiscriminate in its eating habits. If Insect Race appears among the Horror Demons, it’s not good news for the Horror Demons. They would attack even the Horror Demons.

Ideally, the Slaughter Insect Swarm takes care of the other Horror Demons, and humans take care of the Slaughter Insect Swarm.

Analyzing this, Li Ye saw a flash of white light beside him.

Jing Lin appeared in Alien Armor, sitting in the seat next to Li Ye.

Even before Li Ye could speak, another flash of white light descended not far away. It was Yun Yue!

This time, she wasn’t disguised but instead appeared directly with a black cloak and hood. Probably in a hurry and didn’t have time to disguise.

“Is it safe to enter the ark like this?” Yun Yue asked.

“Yes, you’re entering here without any protector, under their very noses. Too risky.” Jing Lin also commented.

“Don’t worry, where I am, they can’t see or hear.”

Li Ye didn’t waste time and handed the two reports to them.

He also briefly informed them about his encounter with the Ming Chi King, his current state, and possible risks.

“How long can you stay in this so-called Inheritance Land?” Jing Lin asked.

“I can delay quite long.” Li Ye replied, “But if dragged too long, I fear once I’m out, they might start the ritual.”

“No worries, it’ll be quick. You wait here for a bit. Li Ming, please wait as well, we need you to deliver this to the front line.” Jing Lin took the intelligence, directly leaving the ark.
