Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 1213: Chapter 601: Descent of the Black Star

(There was a flaw in the last chapter—the one summoned was a Prince of Chaos, not a Chaos Demon. It has been corrected.)

In the night sky, a pitch-black star radiated terrifying gravity, devouring the Thunder and dark clouds that filled the heavens.

It was like a black hole manifesting, even space itself collapsing and being consumed.

Emperor’s Fall’s state changed along with it. His blood-colored Dharma Image began to crumble on a large scale, scarlet Armor was stripped away, the Dharma Image’s pure energy and flesh were devoured, revealing illusory bones.

Emperor’s Fall’s true body was also a mangled mess of flesh, affected by the out-of-control gravity and chaotic spatial rifts.

He was being completely swallowed up by that pitch-black star behind him.

This move was even affecting the Caster himself!

If Emperor’s Fall weren’t an Eternal Chosen One, with Life Force so exuberant it made one’s hair stand on end, just unleashing this one move would have cost him half his life.

Li Ye watched the pitch-black star, utterly shocked.

Combining Super Heavy Pressure with Space Shock could actually form this kind of attack? The dance of heavy pressure and Space Ability…

Exquisitely beautiful yet utterly insane art!

This was indeed a move Li Ye would find hard to learn. He’d have to activate three Faces at the same time: Bai Qi’s mask (Super Heavy Pressure), Li Yuanba (expanded ability range), and Eternal Chosen One (High-speed Regeneration), all three Faces together. And it would still need powerful Divinity as support to erupt with such might.

Right now, Li Ye could at most activate two Faces at the same time. Maybe he could try a small-scale version?

However, this was not the time to be thinking about that.

With the appearance of that Black Star, strange changes rippled through the entire Battlefield.

Everything in the surroundings seemed to be tugged by the Black Star.

At the core of this Battlefield, some parts of the ground instantly collapsed, while others exhibited bizarre anti-gravity phenomena. Massive boulders floated upward, only to be severed at some moment by erupting spatial rifts, then rapidly plummeting or drifting away.

That terrifying might drew the attention even of the Prince of Chaos’s projection and Yan Shuang Dominator’s Coordinated Vein Structure, who were locked in combat.

‘Which of these two Emperor’s Falls is the real one?’

The Prince’s projection frowned, unable to make sense of the situation and deeply displeased: ‘This junior is downright stingy!’

This was a rare Blood Sacrifice summon, yet his projection was not in peak form.

He ought to have descended into the world at Peak Venerable strength, but right now he had only just reached Supreme Level.

Emperor’s Fall clearly had the ability to summon his peak combat strength, yet he controlled the level of sacrifices and only summoned this level of power. With such a massive stock of sacrifices, his stinginess was shameful!

Among the Divine Chosen, Emperor’s Fall held a high status; the weight of that bestowed name was very heavy. And the Prince of Chaos was fully qualified to lecture him like this.

But soon, the Prince of Chaos’s projection withdrew that opinion,

because he sensed the Blood Sacrifice in this space growing ever denser.

.

He detected some kind of Chaos Ritual about to be activated, which startled the Prince’s projection, then filled him with wild joy.

Ascend Demon? He actually plans to Ascend Demon in this godforsaken place!

No wonder he’s being so stingy—afraid there won’t be enough sacrifices for the Ascend Demon ritual?

Emperor’s Fall! You’re something else! Once I finish off this Human in front of me, I’ll help you slaughter the world and Ascend Demon right here!

He sensed so many Life forms, so many powerful beings… he even saw a big Green Skin and… a Bronze Demon God?

Jiuli’s Remnant? What the hell is this place?

The Prince of Chaos was stunned. Then he burst into delighted laughter, ready to kill to his heart’s content!

At the same time, the Prince of Chaos also faintly felt that this grand Blood Sacrifice seemed… to have some kind of problem. As if some other rat droppings had been mixed into it…

But Yan Shuang Dominator had no intention of giving him more time to figure it out. With the blessing of the Coordinated Vein Array, his combat power was unprecedentedly strong, even brushing against Supreme Level, allowing him to brawl head-on with the Prince’s projection.

“Die for me!” Yan Shuang roared. He had sensed something very wrong on the Champion’s side of the Battlefield and wanted to use Full power to crush this projection.

The Prince’s projection, on the other hand, was boiling with battle intent. What’s the point of thinking so much? Just kill first and talk later! Perfectly in line with Humans’ stereotype of the Blood God Sect.

“Gathering Spiritual Energy and Divinity together is nothing but empty power!”

The two sides clashed, blood qi surging, frigid frost erupting.

Yet the blood qi and ice they scattered during their battle were sliced apart and devoured by that distant Black Star.

On the distant Battlefield.

Emperor’s Fall looked down on Li Ye below, a cold sneer in his heart.

Although there had been some accidents and some sacrifices were consumed, it was still within an acceptable range.

‘Come, Li Ye, this is the funeral I’ve prepared for you.’

Emperor’s Fall swung his arm down, and the Dharma Image of bare bones behind him mirrored the motion. The Black Star shuddered violently.

Then it came crashing down with a thunderous roar!

“Ye Yun!”

In that instant, along the trajectory of the falling star, the air was compressed into tangible barriers. Anyone trying to escape was like an Insect trapped in Amber, frozen in place.

Where the star passed, light itself twisted into spirals and was ultimately swallowed whole, like an absolute night curtain descending.

The ground began to crumble. Endless rubble, broken blades, Corpse, and icebergs were captured by the gravity, surging upward like a waterfall in reverse.

Before they could even approach the star, they were cut apart by dense spatial rifts, torn to pieces halfway through.

Li Ye saw Horror Demon drawing near; they were bizarrely dragged and captured, their twisted bodies sucked toward the Black Star.

Their bodies disintegrated along the way, bones and flesh stripped away by an invisible force, scattering like shattered rag dolls. Their howls were annihilated within the warped gravity field, their screams unable even to be transmitted.
