Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

The shadow of destruction completely enveloped the battlefield; light was distorted and sound was silenced.

The pitch-black star, which had devoured countless emperors and demon soldiers and expanded to a diameter of a hundred meters, was held high by the gilded avatar's huge, now broken hand.

The terrifying power backfired and even began to erode the Dharma form itself. The golden armor was stripped away and dissolved by the invisible force, and the divine radiance was devoured by greed, eventually revealing the pale golden, skeletal energy structure inside.

Below, Li Yelai's right arm was a bloody mess, with blood soaking through his armor and cloak and flowing down his arm.

The moment Li Yelai activated the Divine General Dharma Form and forcibly pushed the power of Nightfall beyond the limits of control, even as the caster, he could not fully control this destructive torrent.

His divinity, everything about him, became the fuel that sustained the existence of this doomsday star!
At this moment, he is the most terrifying humanoid calamity on this battlefield!

When this star, containing endless destruction, crashes down, the end will come!

"Stop him! Hold out at all costs until the king arrives!"

The Night Demon King let out a piercing, almost deafening roar. Even from a great distance, the overwhelming sense of threat emanating from the star, as if it could annihilate everything, sent shivers down his spine. This was a power that should never exist in this world!

This is pure destruction!
He frantically waved the scepter in his hand, which symbolized the highest authority of the Night Demon civilization, squeezing out the last bit of power from his city-state's wonders!

The ancient formations arranged around the army were fully activated, and countless dark figures emerged and converged from the ground and from the void like a boiling tide.

As the scepter pointed at the falling star, these shadowy figures instantly transformed into massive, pitch-black barriers, which layered and spread at an astonishing speed! Wherever the barriers passed, the ground was forcibly cleared, and any wanderers who touched the edge of the barriers were instantly ignited, turning into pitch-black flames and ultimately burning to ashes!
The flames spread wildly as the barrier expanded, as if to turn the entire battlefield into an eternally burning inferno!

This is the technology upon which the Night Demon civilization relies for survival—a powerful weapon that combines wonders and formations, integrating offense and defense! It is also the capital that has allowed them to survive to this day during the era of human dominance!
However, the moment the pitch-black star truly began to fall, the black barrier that seemed to incinerate everything, before it even fully approached the star, was covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and then shattered with a silent wail!
The black flames burning on it also transformed into twisted fire serpents, which were uncontrollably captured by gravity and surged back towards the star itself, where they were devoured!
"reverse!"

Zell's eyes widened in fury, and he let out a sharp, explosive sound, but the sound was instantly swallowed up by the surging airflow.

He simply couldn't believe that the profound heritage of an ancient civilization couldn't withstand the single killing move of a fake overlord.
Have you been struggling at the level of hegemony for so many years, only to have it all vanish into thin air?

He gripped a golden hourglass tightly with both hands, a relic of the Sands of Time, the Hourglass of Time.

Its intricate patterns are shimmering with unprecedented brightness.

This hourglass can manipulate time on a small scale, even reversing the state of a living being to a previous moment. But at this moment, what he needs to do is reverse the time of that destructive star!
If a person has been decapitated, as long as they retain a sliver of consciousness, time can be manipulated to restore them to the state before their beheading. Of course, there is a time limit; if the head has already been severed, then the restoration is useless.

This is also a weapon to deal with the champion, because this weapon has a second use: to destroy the relic.

Let the Sands of Time sealed within spread, causing all nearby creatures to experience a time reversal for a few minutes or hours, reversing their physical state to a previous state.

Playing with time comes at a price!
It will attract immortal monsters that will mark, hunt down, and devour every madman who plays with time!

Even creatures from forbidden zones, once marked by these monsters, have only one path left: to wait for death or to return to their homeland.

Even for Zell, it's the same; at most, because of his bloodline, as long as the hourglass isn't broken, he won't be marked.

Of course, shattering the hourglass now won't solve the problem. The grains of sand won't have time to spread before they're swallowed by the dark star. So, what he needs to do is reverse the time of that star!
Zell twisted his wrist sharply, turning the hourglass upside down. Reverse time!

A mysterious wave spread out, and the falling black star actually paused for a moment. Then, its trajectory seemed to slightly reverse, defying the laws of physics.

'Yes, that's it. As long as the king breaks free of his cocoon, as long as the king launches his attack, everything will be alright!'

Just as a surge of elation rose in Zell's heart, he felt an irresistible force on his wrist, as if it were pushing the entire world forward!
"Crack!"

His divine power burned wildly, and his muscles stretched to their limit, yet he still couldn't resist that force, and even his wrist bones made a cracking sound as if they couldn't bear the strain!
That was an irreversible weight for him! The weight of death!

That briefly receding star crashed down again with an even more resolute force!

However, it was only those few seconds that were gained.

A savage roar, seemingly from the primordial era, shattered the remaining blood cocoon!
King Jiang has finally broken free from his cocoon!

The berserk divinity that surpassed the limits of the overlord erupted like a tsunami, that was the pressure of a half-step supreme being!

In this world, they are already the absolute strongest!
And this is only his state after he has just awakened! Once he grows further and receives more of the power of the "First King", he will be able to truly step into the realm of the Supreme!

You, Li Yelai, aren't you so arrogant? Invincible among your peers! Unrivaled in this world where only false overlords reign supreme! But did you ever foresee an enemy from beyond the heavens?! What the hell makes you think you have the right to face the power of a supreme being?

"Kill him! Take his head!"

Zell roared like a madman, placing all his hopes and madness on this newborn king!
He became the first strongman to behead a human champion!
Champions throughout history have died by fate, but he slew the champions before fate arrived!

The king's enormous body, which even surpassed the gilded Dharma form, instantly extended its still-developing arms and fiercely pressed against the falling dark star!
A terrifying devouring force instantly acted on him, stripping away and dissolving his armor and flesh, only to be instantly reassembled and repaired under the support of his immense divinity!
The earth beneath his feet groaned, cracks spreading wildly like a spider web, and more soil, rocks, and trees were pulled into the sky by gravity, disappearing into the stars!
But King Jiang actually withstood it! With his near-supreme divinity, he forcefully held off the impending destruction!

Seeing this, Li Yelai remained expressionless, and even seemed to want to laugh.

Because Nightfall can explode!

The seemingly impenetrable, dark star that the king had desperately held back, now had its destructive energy, compressed to its limit, released its final restraint at this moment.
boom!
The final flash devoured everything.

All the power that had been devoured and the space that had been compressed were released in that instant, turning into a devastating destruction that swept everything away!

The Night Demons' army and formations were reduced to dust in an instant, and countless elite Night Demons guarding the rear were wiped out along with them.

The Night Demon King shed tears of blood from his eyes and uttered a vicious curse—his last words.

Everything seemed about to be destroyed by the raging torrent!

At that moment, even the gaze of the 'First King' in the illusory realm was moved. His divinity surged wildly, as if he wanted to save his bloodline from the torrent of destruction!
Zell and Zefi let out desperate roars.

"Get out! Escape!"

The tokens in their hands were taken away, and the tokens that were originally indestructible became extremely fragile.

As the tokens were torn or crushed, their bodies underwent a data-driven transformation from head to toe, turning into dark red geometric shapes and beginning to dissipate.

But before they could completely escape, a devastating surge engulfed them.

Zell embraced Zefi frantically, and then disappeared completely, accompanied by that piercing scream.

The 'First King' was consumed by tyrannical emotions, but the war in the virtual realm prevented Him from attending to the physical world. His anchor in the physical world had been lost, making it difficult to intervene on the battlefield. At the same time, His gaze towards Li Yelai was filled with intense disgust and apprehension.

Then, the battlefield fell silent.
This move completely wiped out the entire area, even the endless wanderers were instantly cleared out.

Only countless shadows surged towards Li Yelai's shadow like a tidal wave, as if all rivers flowed into the sea.

Li Yelai could clearly sense that the number of Shadow Army soldiers was skyrocketing: six thousand, seven thousand, ten thousand.
This single move, Nightfall, has killed countless monsters. And the shadows of these monsters will be seized and devoured by Li Yelai, becoming his power!

When Li Yelai can truly summon thousands of troops, I wonder what kind of power he will possess?

"Is there a quantity of ten thousand?" The figure of Little Mad King appeared. When Li Yelai opened his Dharma form, she did not keep her distance. She was really not afraid of being absorbed by Nightfall.

"That's about it," Li Yelai replied.

"Then let's nip it in the bud." The Little Mad King's tone remained indifferent.

"Of course!"

The core power of the Night Demon has been destroyed. Although there are many Wanderers, the danger level has decreased somewhat due to the lack of tactical coordination and military command.

Now, the more important thing is to immediately destroy the Night Demon's lair. Although the Night Demon King is dead, as long as the wonder exists, they can still give birth to divine beings.

Now that the Night Demons' elite forces have been wiped out, taking away or destroying the wonders is the best course of action.

Li Ye looked back and saw a figure rapidly approaching from afar. It was none other than Bai Shiyingjie, Xia Ming.

Looking at the devastated yet eerily quiet battlefield, even Xia Ming, who had studied the psionic system for many years, was moved.

Is this something a supernatural being could create? Is my supposed supernatural power fake?

Of course, he also realized that the power Li Yelai had just displayed was a combination of multiple abilities.

But he couldn't understand those powers at all, the multiple, even previously unseen, combinations of abilities.

If this is the average strength of powerful humans from the outside world, then it's terrifying, especially for alien races.

However, as Xia Ming approached, he noticed a fleeting glimpse of chaotic energy emanating from Li Yelai.

Xia Ming narrowed his eyes, his glasses flashing. The power of the Immortal Faction?
At the same time, he also discovered that Li Yelai's hand, which was originally covered in blood and even exposed the bones, was instantly repaired.

Is this what Chang Hui meant by stealing the power of chaos? Can it be replicated?

"Your Excellency Champion, Your Excellency Jiang Ling, I am Xia Ming, a hero from White Stone City," Xia Ming said as he approached.

"Thank you for your previous support, Yingjie." Li Yelai quickly asked, "Where is Xiaomo's headquarters?"

Xia Ming naturally understood what was going to happen. Originally, the Night Demon King was stationed in the city-state, along with those who had resources and elite troops.

Taking them down would be extremely difficult, and there might even be casualties among those with great supernatural powers.

Now that the King of Night Demons is dead, it's the perfect opportunity to raid his property!

Xia Ming decisively pointed out the direction and advanced at full speed: "There may still be powerful beings guarding it, but its defensive strength is greatly reduced. Within the city-state's territory, it will be difficult to deal with. It's best to destroy the wonders first. No need to take prisoners!"

"Good!" Li Yelai was even faster than him, his Kunpeng wings unfurling behind him, and tens of thousands of Shadow Army light cavalry appeared behind him. He transformed into a shooting star and flashed across the night sky.

At the same time, he grabbed Xia Ming's arm and dragged him along.

Little Mad King, on the other hand, put his arm around Li Yelai's shoulder to guard against any hidden dangers.

Xia Ming wasn't surprised; he was simply amazed by the incredible speed and prepared to cover Li Yelai.

If cover is still needed, the city-states without the Night Demon King in charge simply cannot withstand the Nightfall's attack.

If you find it troublesome, just throw a Nightfall at the city-state. Let Nightfall talk about defenses and wonders.

However, as Li Yelai and his two companions advanced at full speed, they casually eliminated some clueless wanderers.

But what they saw shocked them: a huge city in the distance, nestled in a valley, was protected by countless fortresses and array formations.

It was clearly a tough nut to crack, but at this moment, the ancient city was in complete chaos.

Countless demonic subjects weep and flee. At the same time, they are also distorted and twisted.

The scarlet lines dyed half the city red, and even spread rapidly like a tide.

That is
"The Crimson Curse?" Xia Ming couldn't believe it; that speed was terrifying.

"Is that the Crimson Curse? Is there any way to prevent it?" Li Yelai asked.

“Yes, the Radiant Stone can delay the spread of the Crimson Curse to some extent. That’s why we used to build the Radiant Great Wall on the border to slow down the spread of the curse. The alien races should also have similar abilities. After all, this curse has appeared many times before, and the downfall of many alien dynasties was due to the sudden appearance and disappearance of the curse. Various civilizations have studied it.” Xia Ming replied.

Would the Wanderers deliberately destroy the Flaming Wall?

“No, they have no rationality; they act almost instinctively.” Xia Ming’s expression was serious. “We must go back and reinforce the Radiant Fire Great Wall. At this speed, they will reach Wanfeng City very soon. As for the Night Demons… they are already finished. They didn’t even have time to move the wonders.”

Just as Xia Ming said, the Night Demon had no time to evacuate, let alone move the wonder.

But Li Yelai saw a strange scene: a dark figure appeared in the chaotic city.

At the same time, Li Yelai also recognized his identity through the 'system panel' in his eyes.

[Commander of the Righteous Army, Great Sage, Tyrant, Savior, Hero, Demon King, King of All Races, Chosen Supreme, Destroyer of the World. Jun Fu]

Is this long string of names related to his identity? (End of Chapter)
