Capítulo 783: Chapter 366 Brother, I’m Coming In

Jing Lin was not surprised by this; Li Yelai and he shared an unbreakable bond, rooted in a long-standing friendship.

At the same time, Li Yelai was also one of the top official combat forces within the Immortal Palace.

It made sense for him to accompany Jing Lin.

But in reality, the high echelons of the officials were aware of Li Yelai’s bloodline identity.

Although Li Yelai did not want to admit it, he indeed carried the Jing Family bloodline. Therefore, he could enter that particular area.

If someone from Jing Family lineage did not cooperate or did not have the power to open the barrier, or was unable to destroy the anchor,

it would then fall to Li Yelai to do the job, concerning the final method mentioned by Captain Yin Huo.

That naturally would be the Divine Demon Stele and the Lucky Wheel.

The Lucky Wheel could only be used three times.

Currently, Li Yelai had already utilized the Lucky Wheel on two occasions.

The first time, he had summoned a meteorite within the Forbidden Zone, annihilating over four hundred thousand Forbidden Zone Creatures along with a town. It is said that day, countless creatures within the Forbidden Zone wept.

Captain Yang Chen still bears the blame for this until now.

Although a True Martial Overlord actually cannot summon a meteorite, the Forbidden Zone still believed it was Yang Chen who acted.

The second time, it occurred within the Blood God Faction’s Asian Headquarters. He created an Extraordinary Volcano, which destroyed the Treasure Vault and incidentally killed a batch of Church elites.

That Overlord-Level Old Demon General has been emotionally unstable ever since.

Now, Li Yelai still had one chance left.

With the Divine Demon Stele, the Calamity’s curse would be intensified to the extreme, who knew if the Lucky Wheel might deliver something even more ruthless?

Unable to break the barrier? Then summon a terrifying Catastrophe, and destroy both the barrier and the palace altogether!

Of course, this trump card needed to be carefully considered, as the wide range of effect could easily harm his own comrades.

Subsequently, troops within the base set out.

At the same time, various messenger groups detached from the troop, disseminating information towards gathering points scattered around.

Within the Immortal Palace, there were several small human gathering points, dispersed upon entering the palace, they regrouped in safer areas, forming temporary gathering points, and established communication among themselves.

At this moment, the various temporary gathering points that received the news sent out almost all of their troops, based on their relative distances.

More and more units were successfully meeting up along the way, but the main force inevitably moved slowly; they couldn’t traverse mountains and rivers like Spiritual Ability Users can.

Thus, as the top-tier combat forces of captain level and Elite Night Patrol within the Immortal Palace, they served as the vanguard, rushing ahead to the location of the anchor.

The Immortal Palace was indeed dangerous; even a Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability User could potentially be killed by surprise due to insufficient intelligence.

But now, the gathering of a dozen captains, along with even more Elite Night Patrol and Family elite, formed an extraordinarily luxurious Sharp Blade Force.

Li Yelai, Doll, Little Mad King, Captain Huo were all among them. Within the Fifth Sense, there were also two groups of Elite Night Patrol from Champion Team One.

In the Immortal Palace where no Overlord could be born, their combination was an invincible existence.

Apart from the palace itself, nothing could stop the Sharp Blade Force’s charge.

Along the way, when encountering large herds of Extraordinary Beasts, they were directly slaughtered.

When facing dangerous Mythical Species, they were righteously besieged.

The Sharp Blade Force thus traversed six hundred kilometers, forcefully killing all dangers along the way.

However, the Sharp Blade Force also observed many traces of human habitation.

As they delved deeper into the Immortal Palace, Li Yelai and the others even saw an abandoned small town, built from mountain rocks, nestled in a valley, easily defensible.

It wasn’t large, only the size of a small town, but it boasted towering walls.

Indeed, in the Immortal Palace filled with Extraordinary Creatures, only lofty, thick walls could provide a semblance of safety to the inhabitants.

At the moment, the small town was in disarray, having become the nest of a powerful Extraordinary Creature.

It seemed to sense the danger and a golden lion with nine heads burst out of the town instantly.

Within the group, Doll raised her hand and pressed, instantly reducing the nine-headed lion to mush.

She was currently unaccustomed to normal interactions with outsiders, so she put her helmet back on. Her decisive action left many powerhouses in awe.

The group did not stop and continued forward.

“These… all are the descendants of the survivors once left in the Immortal Palace,” Jing Lin sighed as he looked down from midair at the gradually distant town.

Among those initial survivors were some members of the Jing Family.

They had proliferated in the Immortal Palace for over a hundred years.

They might all be his distant relatives, but now, they had all turned into skeletons.

“From the human villages and small towns we encountered so far, it seems the survivors once developed fairly well. Just that small town alone could accommodate thousands,” an official powerhouse inquired, “But why haven’t we encountered any survivors yet?”

“I’ve found some fragmented records. There’s a vicious curse on this part of the Immortal Palace. From what I’ve learned from the records, at a certain period, the babies born were either stillborn or monsters,” another official captain from a different gathering point spoke up.

“I found similar intelligence,” a powerful Family member joined the conversation, “During a certain period, the humans who died would resurrect at midnight and madly attack the living. In the end, that batch of survivors burned all the bodies and moved their original settlement. This might be why there are many uninhabited towns and villages.”
