Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 774: Chapter 363: Bronze Mirror

With the arrival of the official Ye Boshou, Li Yelai’s safety was temporarily secured. He only needed to safely restore his Spiritual Energy, and he would be able to recover his combat power.

Now that Ye Han and the Blind Hero were dead, as long as he recovered his combat power, there wouldn’t be any danger for him.

He was originally an official member and also a double agent Divine Chosen of Chaos. In the current Immortal Palace, there were almost no enemies.

And the Wilderness Ranger… although Yun Yue’s reactions were a bit strange, at least for now she wasn’t an enemy.

The other major Families naturally wouldn’t dare make a move against the officials.

However, if his identity was discovered by Yun Yue, there might be some risk…

“Could she actually expose me?” Li Yelai worried a bit inside. They wouldn’t even need to lift a finger; the strong officials ignorant of the truth would strip him alive.

Afterward, Li Yelai also learned about the current situation within the Immortal Palace.

According to reliable official intelligence, the pillars of light that had appeared in the Immortal Palace were the early manifestations of a terrifying Calamity.

The base had immediately dispatched teams to the edge exits, preparing to inform the outside world. At the same time, they were also assembling more teams, ready to seize the locations where the light pillars had appeared, and completely extinguish the beginnings of the Calamity.

“The three pillars of light I saw before, could those be where the branches of the Time Tree appeared?” Li Yelai pondered, believing this plan was very feasible.

After all, he had unintentionally destroyed one anchor point; just destroy the other two. Even if the enemies from the future were powerful, once the door was shut, they couldn’t come out. They could only stare helplessly in the river of time.

But as time passed, the anchor points would become increasingly robust, making destruction much more difficult.

And after Li Yelai climbed the staircase, at the entrance where the Snake Bone Long Stairs were, the Wilderness Rangers and Chaos believers broke out in fierce combat. Both sides suffered injuries.

Ma Hongyi joined the Battlefield, aiding the Wilderness Ranger.

While the Little Mad King, with the Doll not in good condition, hastily retreated, returning to the temporary base.

After that, the official support teams arrived on the Battlefield, assisting the Wilderness Rangers in repelling the Chaos believers.

At almost the same time, the Long Stairs broke apart, and the Heavenly Palace fell.

The official powerhouses were anxious, and the support teams followed the direction of the collapsing Long Stairs and palace ruins with all haste.

Two of them actually found Li Yelai.

This let them breathe a sigh of relief; the momentum of the Heavenly Palace’s fall was too terrifying, and in their hearts, they even had prepared for the worst.

After a brief rest, the Ye Boshou began to explore the remains of the Immortal Palace.

They mainly recorded the murals and texts on the palace walls, which documented the characteristics and Weaknesses of various Void Realm Creatures. This was helpful for Humans.

If they encountered the corresponding Void Realm Creatures, they would also have means to deal with them.

The Snake Bone Long Stairs could have been used to temper Spiritual Energy; if moved back to the Giant City, the Spiritual Ability Users would be able to improve much faster.

Alas, the Snake Bone Long Stairs were too massive, and after breaking, the pressure had greatly diminished, so they had no choice but to let it be.

Then there was the inheritance within the palace.

That dead bastard Ye Han had obtained a portion of the War Immortal’s inheritance in the palace, which had significantly increased his combat power.

If they could scavenge some usable inheritances from the remains, it would also be good for Humans.

Under the Ye Boshou’s exploration, they indeed found two relatively complete inheritances among the palace ruins.

But their conditions were quite rigorous.

They were the Reset and Spiritual Eyes Path inheritances.

The former allowed for Element Shaping. Ye Han’s Flame Dharma Form was a later representation of such an inheritance. The condition was, upon ascension, one had to slay a Void Realm Creature using a Virtual Realm Projection. Coupled with the corresponding ability and experiences, could one activate this inheritance; the difficulty was quite high. Ye Han was because his Great Destiny just happened to meet the requirements, while other Spiritual Ability Users would have much more trouble.

The latter inheritance was not very complete, and it required a naturally Awakened special ability to use. Probably, only Zi Tong in the Giant City could utilize this inheritance.

During the exploration, the Ye Boshou unexpectedly found Ye Han’s remains.

When Li Yelai first heard the news, he had drawn his knife. He thought that Ye Han had damn resurrected again.

But upon arrival, he learned it was just partial remains.

It was Ye Han’s torn-off arm.

At that time, the blood in the arm turned into Flames and exploded, temporarily repelling Li Yelai.

Now, that still-burning arm was wedged in the rubble of the palace remains. Only half a palm was left.

And on one of the fingers, a black ring twinkled in the firelight.

A Ye Boshou exhaled a breath of icy mist, extinguishing the flames.

Li Yelai approached and took the ring off, revealing a smile.

Ye Han had many treasures, the Divine Demon Stele, ring, long boots, feathers.

Unfortunately, their battle had been too intense, and Li Yelai himself had also suffered heavy losses. And Ye Han’s body had been shattered and remade, and his Secret Treasures were all lost.

Now, to be able to take back this ring was like recouping some losses.

Also, this Secret Treasure’s ability was quite exceptional.

With astonishing defensive power, it could even rebound the blow of a Dharma Image; it was a fine item.

Afterward, Li Yelai continued meditation to restore Spiritual Energy, while the other Ye Boshou scattered, exploring the nearby areas.

Li Yelai hoped they could find some more inheritances or Ye Han’s Secret Treasures.

In a short while, another group of Ye Boshou arrived.

When he saw the covert signs they were making, Li Yelai’s gaze flickered, signaling them to come closer.

After a simple greeting, the lead Ye Boshou glanced around, and seeing the other Ye Boshou were at a distance, came forward and whispered, “Deep Port Branch, I salute you. Mighty Blade of the Blood God, Son of the Father of Plague.”
