Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 606: Chapter 284: The Death of Qin Zhi_2

Hidden abilities and identities of the Emperor’s Fall Chosen, a seemingly beloved yet virginal maid, an attack on the Main Base, and… the lost Chaos Holy Artifact?

Copper Face’s Fourth Ring Seat… Fifth Sense…

He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt impatient; he was eager to know these secrets, sensing that he was already close to uncovering a massive conspiracy.

He wasn’t sure if it was excitement or something else, but his emotions started to become restless.

…

Meanwhile, in the mountain forests of New City Suburb, Border City Number Two.

Under a large tree, a Wilderness Ranger, seated in meditation, opened his eyes and picked up the black longbow in his hand.

“Walking upon the Sea of Black Mud, the King of Green Flames who tears apart the night of despair…”

“I will pray to you, I will cut down the evils, I will fight against injustices.”

He rose to his feet and drew a bronze arrow from his waist.

“May the wrongly deceased rest in peace.”

“I will… avenge them and settle scores!”

The black longbow was drawn to full crescent, aimed at the mountain, aiming to pierce through it.

The next second, the arrow tore through the air, directly entering the forest.

…

Inside the ark, various pieces of information were shared, all of which were spread within a certain area and were not particularly valuable.

Among them, a few were noteworthy.

A person suspected to be a Spirit Extinguisher was spotted in Kunlun Giant City.

A powerful creature left the Forbidden Zone Immortal Ruins and communicated with the Spiritual Ability Family of Yaoqing Giant City.

Subsequently, several Jing Family Spiritual Ability Users entered the Forbidden Zone.

Li Yelai took note of this point, while Jing Lin beside him remained silent.

This might well be the reason for his earlier fight with his own people from the Jing Family.

The entity in that Forbidden Zone, known as an Immortal or Divine, seemed to be interfering with the Physical World.

Li Yelai despised such entities, and his mother, to avoid it, preferred to die of illness rather than contact the Jing Family. Now, it was even turning its attention to his sister, Li Yunyan.

When the opportunity arose, he would capture it to feed Mr. Shadow!

However, apart from this, Li Yelai had not received any news about the promotion of the Supreme of Border City Number Two, nor about the Church’s plans to act against Border City Number Two.

Those ark elector who knew the information chose to conceal it.

After pondering for a moment, Li Yelai also shared a piece of information.

“It seems the Ember Church members are hunting the Wilderness Ranger, for an unknown reason.”

This piece of information was not secret; after all, once the Church took action, it was easy to be noticed.

“The Wilderness Ranger, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard about that organization,” laughed a female elector from the Third Ring, “Their leader, the Witness, used to be an ark elector as well.”

“Ark elector?” Many electors were surprised, clearly unaware of this information.

Li Yelai was also shocked; this was an unexpected piece of news.

“Just a bunch of youngsters,” laughed the female Overlord, “You joined the ark too late. More than fifty years ago, the Wilderness Rangers under the Witness were famous Bounty Hunters within the ark. Many electors traded with the Witness, having them hunt Extraordinary Creatures, even Forbidden Zone Creatures. They were the biggest suppliers of materials in that era.”

There was such a thing? It was said that the information network of the Wilderness Rangers was very extensive, all because of these ark electors.

“What happened after that?” asked an elector.

“After that? The Witness and the Book Holder completely fell out and clashed. The Witness lost, and the Rangers gradually faded away. The last collective action I heard about was fifteen years ago, when they ambushed a Chaos Chosen,” the female Overlord replied, “The Captain said the Witness is still alive, but he hasn’t entered the ark for decades.”

It even involved the Book Holder?

Li Yelai was intrigued, wondering if this meant they were originally collaborators?

A Book Holder, a Witness… were they originally on the same side?

However, just then, a surge of Spiritual Energy suddenly rose within the Hall.

“Who are you?” Qin Zhi stood up in anger, unleashing a powerful Spiritual Energy that transformed into countless Fierce Beasts, wildly sweeping across the entire Hall.

Those Fierce Beasts were mere projections yet charged like a stampede at everyone.

“Seeking death!”

“What the hell?”

“Damn it, Qin Zhi!”

The electors cursed out loud, and those close by quickly retreated.

At the same time, an unstoppable force emerged, forming a Spiritual Barrier as thick as a high wall, blocking all the fierce beasts.

Those that collided with the barrier were disintegrated in an instant.

However, the residual impact of the beast horde still caused many low-level electors to feel a turmoil in their souls, turning their faces pale.

That was the ability of the Path of Babbling, Beast King’s Roar!

Turned sound waves into a horde of beasts, attacking all enemies within range.

Qin Zhi let out a scream in terror.

He came from a village in the wilderness.

Because of his delicate and feminine appearance, he was adopted by a merchant in Ba Shu Giant City.

But that merchant was a pedophilic pervert, causing him to endure both mental and physical torment from a young age.

It was only when he accidentally became a Spiritual Ability User that he escaped the nightmare.

Afterward, to never be suppressed again, he began to climb ruthlessly.

He first killed his benefactor who had rescued him but also knew about his tragic past.

He stole all of the benefactor’s resources and successfully advanced to the Second Awakening.

He joined the Jile Sect of the Church, but he betrayed his comrades in one mission, stealing a large amount of supplies and advanced to the Third Awakening.

He befriended Liu Sheng, was turned into an idol, and became famous for a time. Through various underhanded methods, he obtained supplies and advanced to the Fourth Awakening.

Later, he obtained an ark ticket, becoming Wuji.

After the Fantasy Band incident, through subsidies and resources from the Forbidden Zone,

he successfully advanced to the Sixth Sense and obtained many powerful pieces of equipment.

Step by step, he solidified his footing within the ark!

He became a force no one could ignore.

This is why he was unwilling to believe Copper Face could be Emperor’s Fall. After paying such a heavy price and killing so many humans to get where he was, what could Copper Face possibly have to surpass him? What right did he have to be a Divine Chosen that even he had to bow to?

But now, this cold and ruthless man let out a scream of terror.

Before him was not the Ark Hall, but numerous people who had died by his hand!

They were ignited by green flames, yet emotionlessly stared at Qin Zhi. Regardless of Qin Zhi’s attacks passing through their bodies, they were indifferent.

They transformed into a sea of fire, and in an instant converged into arrows shooting at Qin Zhi!

An endless sense of fear surged, but Qin Zhi wouldn’t just stand there and be captured.

“You’re scared of me alive, you think I’m scared of you dead?”

He realized he was being attacked, his physical body and Spiritual Ability Projection both under siege! But…there was still a chance!

“Great Lord of Pleasure!”

His body erupted in a violet-pink glow.

As a former follower of the Jile Sect, he could still capture the attention of the God of Chaos.

His elegant singing could still please the Divine.

If willing, he could return to the Church at any time, a leniency granted by the Divine.

Now, he needed that leniency to survive!

Just give him one second, and he could return to the Physical World!

Then, under the terrified gazes of all the Ark Chosen Ones, his body violently exploded, turning into a mist of blood…

The blessing Qin Zhi had highly anticipated was instantly pierced by the Green Flame Arrow.

At the same time, in the Physical World, the villa he was in was pierced by a bronze arrow from five kilometers away!

Qin Zhi, along with his bodyguards in the deep room of the villa, were pierced, turning into a mist of blood.

And Liu Sheng sitting beside him also screamed, as his arm and thigh turned into a mist of blood.

In the ark, Liu Sheng screamed and turned into a column of light, escaping back to the Physical World.

Everyone looked on in terror; in their eyes, Qin Zhi had suddenly screamed and then burst.

A Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability User just died in front of them, making everyone sense the eeriness and danger.

But Li Yelai barely held back a smile.

“Finally dead, you beast!”
