Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 817: Chapter 381: The Return of the Immortal

This upheaval occurred suddenly and swiftly, shocking all living beings.

Human warriors hidden within the Scale Remains Civilization’s base suddenly rose up, while those outside also launched a full-scale attack.

Among them were Heavenly Prides who had ascended to the Sixth Sense at a young age.

There were also human Kings who, though nearing the end of their life span and extraordinarily old, were crying and laughing.

They spared no expense, raging into attack.

Like dazzling meteors sparkling in the night sky, they were brutally suppressed in a very short time, yet their brilliant flames remained!

They exchanged their lives for the Human Champion’s final strike!

The Human Champion embraced the restricted area order, his physical body twisted by the forbidden zone power into the likeness of a Scale Remains creature, yet at this moment, he forsaken everything…

Using himself as a consumable…

His headless corpse raised the Battle Blade, striving to unleash his final strike.

Like the Xingtian War God of myth, Xingtian wielding dry firewood, his fierce spirit always present!

This final strike cleaved the Time Worm, as well as the time river itself. The terrifying power of the ages spread, his headless corpse quickly decayed, yet it still stood firm.

And his fallen head gazed towards the past, looking at Li Yelai and others on the other side of the time river.

These were the forebears of humanity, heroes who fought against alien races throughout history, including his ancestors and his master… But he uttered no words nor conveyed any information to those forebears, instead he tried his best to smile.

This strike brought hope to two worlds.

…

It all happened too quickly.

So quickly that even the strongest called the Holy Emperor failed to return from the time river, merely watching that Time Worm getting severed by the Human Champion’s strike.

Then, the entire time river experienced a break and collapse, Scale Corpse Strongmen and Ships walking within it were swept by currents, cast into unknown timespaces.

Without the Holy Emperor’s protection, the price of traversing the time river surfaced, chains surged from the time river, wrapped around their bodies, causing rapid aging or regression, or direct strangling.

In this moment, millions of Scale Corpse Strongmen wailed and screamed tragically.

Past and future were like coasts; the time river was a suspension bridge. Now, one end of the bridge was severed, all beings on the river were engulfed in terrifying currents.

Millions of Scale Corpse Legions and Strongmen, including the Scale Remains Saint Emperor, were exiled into the time river!

Unimaginable fear gripped the Scale Corpse Strongmen at the future point, they rushed to the Time Worm, hoping to treat it as swiftly as possible, at least… at least to bring back the Saint Emperor! Though strong now, Scale Remains Civilization relied on the Saint Emperor to suppress this era; without him, they would suffer severe damage!

But the besieged Human King was crying and laughing, within the Void Realm, his throne crumbled.

Spiritual Ninth Awakening, called the King for once the Spiritual Ability User ascends to nine awakenings, they condense a throne in the Void Realm.

As long as the throne remains intact, Spiritual Energy can be endlessly extracted from the Void Realm, making Kings hard to kill.

Yet at this moment, this elderly King shattered his throne, exchanging for extreme mighty power!

He was willing to forsake the throne, bringing humanity their final hope.

No matter the cost!

The next instant, his flesh dissolved into thick liquid, a terrifying plague unfolded.

This plague was extraordinarily dangerous and powerful, but the Scale Corpse could cope. However, having been shattered, the Time Worm could no longer survive.

Its broken body dissolved into thick liquid, violently trembling and howling in pain.

“Jiang Lu! You, as a Human King, dare to… wield the power of Chaos!” The Scale Corpse Strongman was in disbelief.

Yet the Human King calmly accepted his demise.

“We’ve nothing to hold back anymore, but you… after losing the Saint Emperor and so many elites, can you still maintain your vast territories? Still dreaming of altering history… you can’t even eliminate us. How dare you provoke the era when the stars shine brightly?”

The King’s eyes were turning into pus and blood, Chaos power surged within him, yet he roared deafeningly: “Forebears, we haven’t lost! Humanity… eternal!”

…

The mutation stemming from the future undoubtedly devastated the Scale Remains Civilization.

Even causing variations in the Time Tree, with the Time Worm deeply wounded, the time river showing turbulence, the anchor points across this time underwent colossal changes.

The gigantic rift that blotted out the sky was rapidly contracting, many Scale Ships traversing the rift were directly severed.

The future’s assault undoubtedly brought hope to both timespaces.

The future once deemed hopeless, the most dangerous enemies and fleets shall cease to exist.

This timespace too has new hope, due to the sacrifices made by humans from the future.

“The rift is healing!”

“Future comrades have slain the Time Worm!”

“May Heroic Spirits eternal! Humanity eternal!”

“Kill!!!”

Reinforcements from the future thoroughly resolved this dreadful Calamity.

Future Human Champion and numerous strongmen sacrificed their lives for this result!

Once the rift is completely closed, this calamity will pass.

Human warriors seemed like they had all been given a vigorous shot, all launching full-scale attacks, aiming at the rift.
