Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Li Yelai was somewhat tempted. If the old Mad King could break free of the curse, the human side would have a significant advantage.

Facing the impending recovery of the restricted area, they also have greater confidence.

There are two kings within the border city, but the Amber King has stated it quite frankly.

In terms of combat strength, he is far inferior to the Old Mad King.

If the Old Mad King didn't have this life-consuming curse, he alone would be enough to intimidate the forbidden zone.

Unless the three penalty areas are willing to pay the price of losing two of their kings.
This is unacceptable for opposing penalty areas.

Now that the possibility of strengthening or restoring the Old Mad King has arisen, Li Yelai has truly become greedy.

One king of the penalty area lost control, while two kings of the penalty area were busy suppressing the enemy.
Within that entire restricted area, the strongest enemy is the Supreme Being.

The success rate of using one's own methods and those of the clone teardrop to deal with a single Supreme Being is very high.
Is it possible to try and obtain this fragment of Chi You?

Li Yelai's eyes flickered, but in the end he abandoned this risky plan.

Because, from further away, a second and third powerful aura burst forth.

The lost lands are not limited to just these two supreme beings.
I can't possibly break through the entire lost territory, annihilate all the supreme beings, and then dig out the fragments of Chi You from the belly of the King of the Forbidden Zone, can I?

If Li Yelai could do that, there would be no point in him running away!
With that power, just liberate the restricted area!

Unfortunately, Mr. Shadow only makes deals when Li Yelai dies or when he faces the king directly.

Without resorting to trading, they fought their way through the restricted area, encountering Fiends and Greenskin Orcs along the way.

Li Yelai is not capable of doing that yet.

Moreover, the impact of the Chi You fragments on the Old Mad King is currently unknown.

If possession or corruption occurs, that would be terrible.

Li Yelai quickly pondered, examining each of his trump cards and considering all possibilities.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Bone Supreme in the distance did not attack, but maintained a certain distance.

The fact that Chi Que's corpse was in the hands of the Bronze Demon God was terrifying.

A veteran supreme being has died just like that.
The Bronze Demon God was naturally terrifying, and Tian Gu had long known of the Old Mad King's reputation. He still vividly remembered the old Mad King's battle roar in the Void Realm back then.

What truly made Tian Gu feel absurd and terrified was Li Yelai!
A powerful overlord severely injured a supreme being with local support, leading to the latter being killed by the clone.

This kind of person must never be let go!
"Gentlemen, kill the champion! He's only a Overlord, yet he can already injure a Supreme. Once he advances to Supreme, none of us will be his match!" Heavenly Bone's voice was cold and rational: "Abandon battlefields two and three. Join me in surrounding and killing the champion!"

"This clone is powerful, but it's still just a clone. Hold it off! The rest of you, surround and kill the champion! You must kill him!"

"We must not let him escape from here!"

Chique is indeed dead, but as a creature of the forbidden zone, he can return to the physical world after a certain period of time. Humans, however, do not have this opportunity.
Here, kill the champion!
This killing intent was not for the bounty on the Throat of Return to Nothingness, nor for the generous reward from the Heavenly Evolution Traveler.

It is the purest form of fear of its growth!

“Heavenly Bone, he is the champion, he has his own destiny. If left unattended, he will die the moment he ascends to the Supreme Realm.” A Supreme Realm expert who was on his way responded: “Now is not a good time to hunt him down.”

"Champion's Destiny? Can such a monster be trapped by destiny? My intuition screams! If we don't kill him here, we, and even the entire Holy Palace, will pay an unbearable price for today's hesitation! Quickly! Execute the order!" Heavenly Bone's voice roared, "Quickly!"

However, just as he overruled all objections and attempted to forcibly unite all high-end combat forces to launch a decisive annihilation against Li Yelai—an even grander message, imbued with an inviolable monarchical will, was poured directly into the depths of his consciousness and reached the ears of every powerful figure in the forbidden zone: "Tian Gu, and all pursuers, cease your attack. Let them go."

what?
The Heavenly Bone Supreme almost thought he was hallucinating.

"King?" he exclaimed in disbelief, "They murdered Chi Que! They slaughtered the nobles of the Holy Palace! They even brought the orcish calamity into the Holy Land! Now is the best opportunity to eliminate this threat forever! Three, no, two! Two more Supremes, Pan Hu and Qi Yu, just those two are enough. I can definitely kill the Champion! Three Supremes, make your move!"

"shut up!"

The king's voice carried a barely perceptible hint of solemnity and suppressed anger.

"The power of the Azure King was aroused by the clone, resulting in an unprecedented backlash. The White King and I must do everything we can to suppress it and have no time to spare."

"At this moment, we cannot afford to be distracted and take action."

"You alone may not be able to keep him; on the contrary, you may suffer even greater losses."

"Let them go."

"We'll make plans after the King of Qing has stabilized."

Black King made the most ideal judgment: Old Mad King's imitation is very strong, plus a champion.

Unless several supreme beings intervene simultaneously to suppress it, there is simply no way to deal with it!
There have not even been any casualties among the Supreme Beings.
With one Supreme already sacrificed, no further loss is permissible.

Moreover, the existence of the clone caused the Azure King's power to spiral out of control.

In a simple choice, letting humans leave the restricted area is actually the best course of action.

As soon as the words fell, the immense will receded like a tide, leaving the Heavenly Bone Supreme standing there, chilled to the bone.

Unable to act because they had to suppress the rampaging Green King?
He couldn't keep that championship?

These few words made Tian Gu feel an indescribable humiliation.

The Holy Palace, so majestic, had to yield to a group of surviving humans right at its own doorstep?

He looked up and stared intently at the figure, as if trying to imprint Li Yelai's image into the depths of his soul.

"You'll regret it, you'll definitely regret it!"

On the other side, Li Yelai finally abandoned his overly greedy idea. He decided to stop while he was ahead.
He can't do that now. Breaking through the forbidden zone is something he should consider after he becomes king.

Therefore, Li Yelai decisively gave the order to retreat to the replica teardrop.

The hundred-foot-tall bronze demon god, with its crimson demonic horns and ferocious aura, still stood amidst the waves, facing the core of the forbidden zone. Its eyes, burning with golden flames, gleamed with an undisguised desire, mixed with the overwhelming murderous aura of primordial warfare!
Its massive body leaned slightly forward, the muscles of its six bronze arms bulging, as if it were about to crush the seabed and charge towards the source of both temptation and danger.

Li Yelai's expression changed slightly, and after giving the order again, the imitation teardrop transformed back into human form and appeared on Old Ma No. 8's back.

Despite being a clone of a teardrop, Mingming had completely transferred command authority to Li Yelai.

But at this moment, having reverted to its former form as the young Mad King, it still gazed towards the restricted area, its normally lifeless eyes revealing a certain longing and murderous intent.

This made Li Yelai's heart sink; the influence of the Chi You fragments was even stronger than he had anticipated.

Fortunately, the imitation teardrop wasn't the real Old Mad King, so it didn't cause any major reaction.

Moreover, the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone did not continue the pursuit, clearly overwhelmed by the Chi You fragments. (End of Chapter)
