Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1197: Chapter 590_2

What they fear might just be certain human champions.

If there were another group among the Horror Demons like champions who are inclined towards humanity, maybe the situation could be reversed.

If some foolish individual fears the Old Mad King, then that’s even better!

However, Li Ye Lai has seen some human champions, but they don’t seem too different from other Horror Demons.

The Second Generation Champion shook her head: “I and the fifth are exceptions. Other human Horror Demons find it difficult to escape the inherent malice of Horror Demons. Even I don’t dare to get close to humans, fearing I can’t suppress such malice.”

Li Ye Lai silently nodded, even now, he could feel the Second Generation Champion’s muscles occasionally tense.

Her divinity and spiritual energy created a strange magnetic field that once wanted to approach Li Ye Lai but was forcefully resisted by her.

“You aren’t a Horror Demon, it’s hard to understand. It’s malice inscribed into the soul, urging me mentally and physically to destroy the creator and all intelligent life besides Horror Demons, even if it conflicts with my own will.”

“I’ve seen many human Horror Demons, they were supposed to be official experts, yet find it hard to restrain their malice against humans. Even those with strong will, upon sensing human presence, would involuntarily strike and kill.”

The Second Generation Champion looked at Li Ye Lai, her eyes flickering with a mysterious light: “And I… can barely suppress this malice because I am a champion.”

“Actually, in my era, the cloak the First Generation Champion held didn’t have any particularly special significance. It offered decent defense and support but was just a secret treasure. In those days, even the First Generation wasn’t called a champion yet.”

“As the First Generation slaughtered out of the Blood God’s sect’s blood sacrifice feast, became this world’s first Blood God champion, and rejected the Blood God’s blessing, knocking down the Divine Chosen.”

“At that time, the First Generation was called the Human Champion by the demons. That’s how the title of champion came about…”

The Second Generation Champion smiled lightly, revealing secrets never known before.

Who could have thought the name Human Champion that terrifies demons originates from the Chaos Faction?

Slaughtering out of the feast, it’s no wonder the Blood God loves champions so much.

It was actually a method to select the Divine Chosen; today’s Church can only hold small feasts to select Demon Generals.

But the true blood sacrifice feast involves throwing a sea of champions into the battlefield.

As the slaughter begins, the victor’s strength grows stronger.

Until finally, the only victor emerges, who is the Divine Chosen.

The First Generation essentially passed with full marks the written and oral tests, then refused to serve just before taking office.

“And the cloak bathed in the blood of the demons gradually underwent miraculous changes, even gaining a sliver of self-awareness and increasingly powerful causality. Of course, the powerful causality breath attracted certain larger malices. Overall, it condensed the initial unyielding will… growing stronger as it bathed in the blood of human champions and demons.”

After examining later, the First Generation analyzed it, surmising that perhaps in the future it might become the legendary absolute will or dire will.”

“Thus, to pass this unyielding will down, the First Generation set a rule: the body can be lost, but the cloak must return to Champion Team One. Then… I became the Second Generation Champion.”

“And passed it down from generation to generation…”

“I and the fifth, actually, are able to barely suppress the inherent malice of Horror Demons because we possess this unyielding will. But it’s ultimately imperfect, hard to completely suppress.” The Second Generation Champion looked at Li Ye Lai: “Your cloak comes from three thousand years later, more perfected and solid than our inheritance!”

“Perhaps it has grown into absolute or dire will.”

“You should be able to clearly feel it. The power inherited by the Champion Cloak.”

“If the coming Horror Demon inherits your Champion Cloak, then there’s no pressure.”

Li Ye Lai recalled when facing the Insect Master’s swarm will impact, the Champion Cloak constructed a black Great Wall in his spiritual world.

And upon the black Great Wall, the shadows of former champions emerged, transforming the wall into an insurmountable absolute barrier.

Even the soul sea of the swarm’s will couldn’t break through the barrier.

That is the champion’s inheritance, perfect… absolute will or dire will?

“Therefore, other human Horror Demons can’t suppress malice like you guys?” Li Ye Lai asked.

“Hmm. Better not to count on humans among the Horror Demons; even if they want to help you, they can’t twist such power. Ultimately, they’ll still be enemies of humanity.” The Second Generation Champion sighed: “This unyielding will is too rare, don’t have great expectations. Of course, if you can control it, and all the Horror Demons appearing are champions, then it’s fine. We may be unable to fully suppress the curse, but at least can control ourselves from acting against you.”

“If they’re all champions, we’ll just charge ahead, disregarding Emperor’s Fall, Beastmen, Nightmare…” Li Ye Lai responded: “However, I will convey this intelligence to the outside world.”

Then, Li Ye Lai stood up and asked, “How should I contact you?”

“If needed, I will seek you out. First, go back and guard the point, prevent the Horror Demons of the two spatial layers from merging. Also, tell your people to be alert in the Void Realm, once you find the Emperor’s Fall battle fluctuation, support quickly.” The Second Generation Champion pondered and said: “And give me more food and medicine.”

Li Ye Lai nodded, space rippled beside him, and a pile of food and medicine emerged.

“Beware of the hungry Horror Demons destroying food.”

“Hmm, don’t worry, the Nine.”

After Li Ye Lai nodded, he left in farewell.

And after Li Ye Lai left the villa, the Second Generation Champion let out a gentle sigh of murky air: “Really hard to endure…”

…

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

The Emperor’s Fall felt a strike of causality, but the strength was not strong, only causing him to frown momentarily.

“The causal backlash of the Primordial? The divinity left on the Second Generation has been erased… have they met?” Emperor’s Fall said indifferently.

“So be it…”

He looked at the Jade-faced Demon General kneeling before him, blood oozing from its mouth.

“Really clueless, I am the Emperor’s Fall. You’ve pledged allegiance to a traitor.”

The Jade-faced Demon General struggled to spit out blood mixed with flesh, angrily stared at the ‘Emperor’s Fall’ before him.

Although the appearance was identical, the aura was even more violent.

But he knew… it was fake!

How could Lord Emperor’s Fall suddenly attack them? How could he massacre the Chaos elite legion?

“You impostor! Do you dare call yourself Lord Emperor’s Fall? You are nothing but a Horror Demon!” Jade-faced roared in fury: “Activate the Chaos Holy Artifact for me! Blast this beast!”

(Please wait a moment)

Then, Li Ye Lai stood up and asked, “How should I contact you?”

“If needed, I’ll come find you. You go back and guard the point first, don’t let the Horror Demons from the two spatial layers converge. Also, tell your people to be mindful of the Void Realm, as soon as the Emperor’s Fall battle fluctuations appear, support swiftly.” The Second Generation Champion pondered and said: “Also, add more food and medicine.”

Li Ye Lai nodded, and spatial ripples flickered beside him as he brought out a pile of food and medicine.

“Beware of hungry Horror Demons destroying the food.”

“Hmm, don’t rush, the Nine.”

After Li Ye Lai nodded goodbye, he left.

As Li Ye Lai left the villa, the Second Generation Champion released a murky breath: “It’s really hard to bear…”

…

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

The Emperor’s Fall sensed a blow of causality impact, but the impact was weak, only causing him to frown slightly.

“Is the causal backlash of the Primordial? The divinity left on the Second Generation was erased… have they met?” The tone of Emperor’s Fall was calm.

“So be it…”

He glanced at the Jade-faced Demon General kneeling on the ground spitting out blood.

“Really clueless, I am the Emperor’s Fall. What you’ve pledged allegiance to is the traitor.”

The Jade-faced Demon General gurgled up blood mixed with shredded flesh, glaring angrily at the ‘Emperor’s Fall’ before him.

Though the appearance was identical, the demeanor was even more intense.

But he knew… it’s fake!

Why would Lord Emperor’s Fall suddenly raid them? Why would he slaughter the Chaos elite legion?

“You counterfeit! Do you dare call yourself Lord Emperor’s Fall? You’re nothing but a Horror Demon!” Jade-faced roared in fury: “Activate the Chaos Holy Artifact for me! Blast this beast!”
