Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

The disappearance of the majestic, gilded Dharma image caused a sharp drop in pressure on the Bystander Emperor and the Night Demon officers. Every swing of the Dharma image's halberd had brought terrifying casualties, and its enormous size had instilled despair in them.

But in the next moment, amidst the scattered mud and ash, a frantic heartbeat resounded.

In that instant, all the bewildered ones who were besieging the Dharma image instinctively felt fear.

Amidst the billowing dust and ash, countless dark figures spread out from beneath Li Yelai's feet, instantly transforming into five thousand shadow soldiers and five thousand heavily armored cavalry!
The moment the golden wings behind Li Yelai flapped, the Shadow Army cavalry erupted with the thunderous sound of their iron hooves!
Five thousand heavily armored cavalrymen, without even needing a running start, unleashed a thunderous roar of hooves under the enhancement of the shadow power!
Like a sudden, bursting torrent of steel death, they charged toward the boundless black tide ahead at an irrational speed!

The ninth-generation champion has begun his charge!

No one can question Li Yelai's strength, nor can anyone tarnish Li Yelai's glory!

His glory did not come from his bloodline, but was forged through countless life-or-death charges!

He once charged against a swarm of murderous insects that devoured everything.

They launched an attack on the notorious Forbidden Zone Legion.

They launched an attack on the alien legion from a future timeline.

Charge at the troublesome and savage green-skinned orcs!

He has faced the raging tide of terrors and crushed the army of the dead in the River Styx!
Now, as this human champion launches another charge!

And who can stop him?
The seemingly unstoppable black tide, composed of countless wanderers, was easily torn apart like fragile paper before this unstoppable torrent of steel!
The heavy cavalry's iron hooves trampled over everything, sending twisted limbs and shattered carapaces flying everywhere, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake!
Seeing this, Xia Ming's eyes flashed: "Shadow Army? Just like Chang Hui said, he can use multiple great supernatural powers! He's worth studying! But the consumption is too great! Moreover, is this tactic considered a decapitation strike? Isn't he planning to cut through the enemy and then kill their leader?"

If Li Yelai could hear this, he would probably respond with a sarcastic remark.

Break through all the enemy's formations, charge to their leader, and chop off his dog's head with one stroke—isn't that just beheading?
charge! charge!
Even the massive First King's guards were crushed before the Shadow Army's iron cavalry!
Then, the Shadow Army's iron cavalry charged through the air, tearing apart or sending all those who stood in Li Yelai's way flying. Like arrows released from a bow, they swept across the battlefield!
As mentioned before, Li Yelai, having attained divinity, is now invincible.

You'd better have an enemy from the sky!

At the same time, Li Yelai activated Bai Qi's mask and the Sky-Treading Qilin stance, preparing to stun the ball.
On the other side, far from the hustle and bustle of the main battlefield, lies the heavily protected rear area.

Zefei's face was pale, and her slender fingers unconsciously touched her smooth neck. A cold sensation came from her fingertips, as if the deadly chill had not yet dissipated.

I almost died!

The thought gnawed at her heart like a venomous snake, bringing with it a belated, almost suffocating fear.

This is the core area, heavily guarded by thousands of elite troops! It's the command hub with numerous concealment and defensive formations! It's an absolutely safe zone protected by the forbidden substance, the Sands of Time!
However, in that very instant, a ghostly assassin appeared out of thin air behind her, seemingly ignoring all physical and psychic obstacles!

The cold, sharp blade was almost touching the skin of her neck; she could even feel the deathly chill emanating from the metal... Just a hair's breadth away, and her head would have been severed from her body!

If it weren't for the fact that the grains of sand containing the power of time that she carried were invisibly touched by that extreme killing intent, causing the assassin's movements to become extremely sluggish and weakened.

If not for the unseen force at play, the First King, seated upon the throne of the Void Realm, seemed to sense something, casting an indescribable pressure upon the throne.
At this moment, she is probably already a headless corpse that is gradually cooling down!

In front of her brother.
"An assassin? How could there possibly be an assassin of this caliber?" Zefi's heart was still pounding. She forced herself to calm down: "Besides those few overtly powerful individuals, how could there be such a top-tier assassin in this world? And a powerful one at that?"

In her view, this mysterious assassin was even more threatening than the invincible champion on the front lines!
While the champion is indeed terrifying, a monster capable of directly confronting an entire legion, at least his strength is visible and overt, and the laws of the battlefield apply to him as well.

But that assassin came without a trace and left without a trace. Until the moment the blade was about to strike her, she, a noblewoman of the forbidden zone with the bloodline of the first king and keen senses, did not notice it at all!
The kind of being that can easily drag you into the abyss of death when you are most confident and safest is the truly terrifying nightmare!
Zell's face was so dark it could drip water. He saw the special psionic fireworks that suddenly rose into the air and exploded outside the camp. It was the unique communication signal of the Night Raid troops of the human megacity!

"That's... a shadow clone? What's going on? Is there such a bizarre existence among the great supernatural powers of humanity?" Zell asked coldly.

"The last great master with this ability was three hundred years ago. He was a great master whose death is confirmed. None of the current ones match up," the Night Demon King replied calmly, though he himself was also vaguely afraid.

That assassin was too dangerous!

If he had been the target just now, he would probably be beheaded by now! Moreover, since it was a shadow clone, who knows how many other clones were lurking nearby!
The Night Demon King dared not be careless in the slightest, and immediately activated his divinity with all his might, his senses spreading out like a tide, alerting every inch of shadow around him.

He suspected that the enemy's true form had never left.

Where could it be? In a shadowy corner? In a blind spot? Or perhaps hidden in its own shadow?

Thinking of this, the Night Demon King immediately activated his divinity. The dense shadow beneath his feet writhed like a living thing, quickly covering the entire area behind him. Countless eerie eyes opened in the shadows, scanning everything, but found nothing unusual.

"Was that a signal that humans don't collect at night?" Zefi asked.

“Indeed, but it doesn’t make sense.” Zell thought calmly: “There have only been two humans who entered this world. One is the Emperor of Fallen, chosen by the multiple gods, and the other is that damned champion. Now look at the champion, slaughtering everyone in front of him. The one just now was naturally not the Emperor of Fallen, but a human woman.”

“Hmm, I’m wondering the same thing. Excluding the Fallen Emperor, the human camp only has one champion. Where did this female assassin come from, and with the Night Watchman’s signal?” Zephyr said. “One token can only enter one location, so how did this assassin get here? Could it be that some forbidden zone nobles were killed and replaced by humans?”

“That’s the only possibility. Damn it, a bunch of useless trash, how could they have gotten in here like this?” Zell said. “This intelligence almost killed you! Fortunately, the First King’s gaze fell upon you, blessing your bloodline.”

"And now... where is that assassin?" Zefi asked in a low voice.

Now, they suspect the enemy is still nearby. The one that was just shattered was a clone; are there other clones? Where is her original body?

Of course, they soon received intelligence from the front lines. The human champions were rapidly breaking through the enemy lines!
"I see. The assassination failed, so you just revealed our location to the champion?" Zell sneered. "Damn it, with so many Wanderers, he actually dared to charge? What a reckless fool!" "He's very fast. Ordinary Wanderers can't stop him. Your First King's guards were all knocked away." The Night Demon King reminded him, "Although this is very taxing, he is indeed getting closer quickly. He has already broken through five of our defenses."

“Of course I know that after obtaining the wonder, he is considered a divine being. He is already invincible.” Zell’s smile grew even more sinister: “But what about enemies from the sky?”

“Champion, this is something good prepared for you. Now, you’re using it ahead of time.” He said, taking out a shriveled plant embryo.

Similar to the plant embryo of the First King Wang Wei, but much larger, and with a shimmering dark golden luster.

This is the embryo of a king! Within the forbidden zone of the Sands of Time, it is considered a relic of sacred value.

Of course, in the long years since the First King truly perished, this sacred relic also lost its source of power and almost became just an ordinary ancient artifact.

But now, the rules of this world have reversed and shaped the 'First King'. Therefore, this sacred object, which shares the same origin as the First King, will also see the light of day again and reveal its true terror!
As Zell threw out the embryo, he and Zefi simultaneously slashed their wrists with sharp blades. Blood containing the rich bloodline of the First King gushed out like a spring, converging in the air to form a ferocious blood dragon that roared and coiled around the embryo!
The embryo seemed to be instantly infused with life, and countless wriggling, delicate yet resilient blood-red threads grew on its surface!
These threads, as if possessing their own consciousness, shot wildly towards the wanderers who were ordered to remain stationary, mercilessly penetrating their distorted bodies and greedily devouring their flesh and blood!
The wanderer, entangled in the silk threads, let out a silent wail, its body visibly withering away. Meanwhile, the silk threads, having devoured a massive amount of flesh and blood, grew more numerous and thicker, eventually intertwining and coiling in mid-air, enveloping a gigantic, pulsating, blood-red cocoon.

By this time, the wound on Zell's wrist had healed.

He raised his hand and scattered a shower of shimmering sands of time.

The sand grains merged into the blood cocoon, and something terrifying inside seemed to be growing at an accelerated pace, emitting a series of deep and eager roars. The entire blood cocoon swelled violently, as if it would break out at any moment!

"Awaken, King Zelanruo!" Ze'er shouted, "With your power, destroy the glory of mankind, and make the champion fall before them!"

If the champion dies, the morale that humanity has been inspired will completely collapse!
When a human champion appears on the battlefield, human morale will be boosted to its peak. Even in the midst of a rout, this morale will be ignited, leading to a counter-charge!
However, if the human champion were to die under such circumstances, the morale that was inspired would plummet into the abyss in an even more tragic way.

They rose to fame because of the championship, and they also fell from grace because of it.

Hahaha.
dead!
Within the illusory realm, the 'First King' responded to the call of his bloodline descendants, and a vast and ancient power traversed space, crashing into the enormous blood cocoon.

The blood cocoon, like an inflated balloon, expanded and grew wildly once more. Inside, the outline of a massive black shadow, comparable to a mountain, became increasingly clear, and the oppressive aura emanating from it froze the air in the entire rear base.

This is the King General!
Weapons of war bearing the blessings of the first king!
Its size when it awoke was almost the same as the gilded dharma image that Li Yelai had previously used to dominate the battlefield!
"Come on, face me! Champion!" Zell laughed. He could almost see the champion fall and the human defenses crumble completely.

Then, he felt an unprecedented sense of danger!

This made his face stiffen. The king in the blood cocoon seemed to have sensed something as well. The process of breaking out of the cocoon suddenly accelerated, and the sound of the cocoon breaking became rapid and chaotic, as if the being inside wanted to break free ahead of time!

Within the virtual realm, the gaze of the 'First King' became incredibly solemn, even revealing a clear sense of apprehension and disgust!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Li Yelai led the Shadow Army in a charge.

Breaking through seven enemy defenses in succession has consumed quite a bit of divine power.

Fortunately, the miracle recovered quickly.

After all, he was indeed killing enemies, and doing so with great bravery. Therefore, the faith from the Blood God faction's followers allowed Li Yelai's divinity to recover very quickly.

The human champions and the Blood God faction are, in a way, actually connected.

Li Yelai thought to himself, his hands never stopping. He had already spotted the enormous blood cocoon in the distance and the alien race's rear army formation.

The defense is very strong, with numerous formations and an even denser concentration of Wanderers.
Yeah!
At this moment, he raised his right hand, and a pitch-black star appeared above him, as gravity and space were being compressed and merged to the extreme.

To unleash this move, Li Yelai must simultaneously activate Mythical Mimicry: Sky-Treading Qilin (Space), Bai Qi's Mask's Blood Prison Demon Suppression (Gravity), and Mythical Mimicry: Kunpeng (Fusion).

The out-of-control gravity will capture everything around it, and any objects that get too close will be cut apart by the spatial rifts.

Ultimately, it transformed into a pitch-black star that devoured and destroyed everything!

This is Li Yelai's strongest killing move!
Falling Star - Nightfall!

His creator was Li Yelai's counterpart, the Terror Demon Emperor Fall. The name was truly fitting; he was also Li Yelai, and died at the hands of Nightfall—a very apt description!
The only problem is that this move takes a long time to charge up and requires enough blood as a medium to activate the Blood Prison Demon Suppression.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of blood on the battlefield.

To maximize efficiency, Li Yelai began manually casting Nightfall while charging, which resulted in some of the Shadow Army being absorbed into his attack.

And now, it's time.

Li Yelai laughed loudly, stopped his charge, and then changed his mask to "Hateless Li Yuanba"!
The golden Dharma image rose up once again, standing tall and majestic!
Within the Dharma Image's enormous golden right palm, it held aloft the already formed, and wildly expanding, pitch-black star!
The terrifying gravitational force was activated and erupted in full force, like an invisible giant hand seizing everything on the earth!
The vast number of wanderers, like fallen leaves swept up by a gale, were lifted off the ground, letting out helpless howls, and involuntarily surged toward that dark star!

In mid-air, they were cut and torn apart by the dense spatial rifts surrounding the star, turning into clouds of blood mist and fragments, and then completely swallowed by the star!

The night meteorite expanded rapidly, distorting light and silencing sound!

The shadow of destruction, as the stars expanded, enveloped the entire battlefield!

Then it plummeted! (End of Chapter)
