Netherworld Retrograde

Capítulo 915: Chapter 433: Breakthrough Before Battle

The members of the Xuanjia Group, who were rapidly retreating, simultaneously changed their expressions.

They could clearly feel that the presence of the Champion Agent and that Overlord behind them had vanished at the same time.

Cheese suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked back. But he could only see a red thorn cluster, less than a meter tall, floating in mid-air.

“They… disappeared?” Ye Boshou were uncertain and suspicious.

“No, they’ve been trapped in a cage… the two of them together…” Cheese murmured: “Only one person… can come out alive.”

This made everyone’s faces extremely gloomy. An Overlord and a Fifth Sense being trapped in such a place. The outcome was obvious….

Meanwhile, in the distance, the elites of the Jile Sect who were rushing at full speed turned pale.

“This is bad, both their presences disappeared!”

“Damn He Lan, is he really going to kill the Champion Agent?”

….

And before Li Yelai, what unfolded was a magnificent and mysterious scene.

Crimson thorn bushes, wild like vines, spread out wantonly, covering the vast earth. They were thick and tough, possessing endless life force, soaring straight to the sky, interwoven into a huge sky curtain, tightly connecting heaven and earth. They transformed into an impenetrable Thorny Cage, as if painting a grand picture.

Surrounded by thorns on all sides, it seemed like the heavy shackles of fate.

Li Yelai gazed up to the horizon, seeking that slim chance of escape, but only saw the thorns coiling like dragons, lingering incessantly, blocking out the sky.

“Here, no one will disturb us. Champion Agent, no, Ninth Generation Champion… now, you belong only to me!”

He Lan laughed, his smile becoming more wanton, more excited!

Hahaha!

Finally, it finally succeeded!

He ultimately succeeded in trapping Li Yelai within the Heavenly Usurping Cage before the Heartless Fruit could parasitize and corrupt him!

Even he, at this moment, thanked the gifts of fate.

He accepted the invitation and solicitation of the Jile Sect on a whim.

He originally intended to go to the Extreme North to investigate a mysterious Spiritual Ability User who had appeared there.

That Spiritual Ability User allegedly had a powerful and rare ability.

That was his original target.

In this world, there are too many miracles.

Some Spiritual Ability Users are born with a certain unique and powerful ability. It is the world’s gift to some lucky ones!

Unfortunately, aside from those lucky ones, other creatures find it hard to obtain such an ability, though they crave it.

But He Lan is different, he possesses the Heavenly Usurping Cage, which can steal others’ abilities, thus acquiring multiple special abilities!

Those lucky ones will all be the stepping stones for his rise!

Upon learning that the Champion was trapped in the Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, and that Champion Team One was all parasitized by the Heartless Fruit, he immediately changed his plans.

The ability of a Champion must be extraordinarily powerful.

Of course, the effect of the Heavenly Usurping Cage requires killing the target, so facing a Champion involves great risk. Unless the Champion indeed reached the point of exhaustion, he would not attempt to attack the Champion.

As for becoming a Divine Chosen of Jile, that was just one of his options.

With his kind of talent, his kind of ability, isn’t it a matter of time before he makes a name for himself in any sect?

And when the more special Champion Agent emerged, he naturally changed his plans.

Though the Undying Golden Body is good, having multiple high-level abilities of Face is clearly more appealing.

Now, after truly trapping Li Yelai in the Heavenly Usurping Cage, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He is really fortunate, fortunate that Li Yelai could still maintain himself from being parasitized by the Heartless Fruit in such an environment.

Otherwise, I fear the Jile Sect would have desperately twisted things to make him a Divine Chosen?

One must know, the influence of the Heartless Fruit is bilateral.

Even a slight fondness can be magnified and distorted.

It’s important to be careful when killing enemies, and even when getting along with the opposite sex, you can be without evil thoughts; he truly deserves to be a Champion Inheritor.

This is a good thing for He Lan.

Otherwise, once the Night General becomes a Divine Chosen, it would be very troubling for him.

Killing a Jile Divine Chosen with such talent and status, the Jile Sect might go all out against him?

And now, the ability of the Night General will ultimately belong to him!

Just like those people before…

Those Heavenly Prides who ought to have become mighty on their own!

“Don’t look anymore, Champion… once this cage is activated, it won’t be lifted. Unless one of us dies.” He Lan, holding a long spear, stood in mid-air looking down at Li Yelai: “It means, among us, only one person can get out alive!”

“And the victor will gain one ability of the defeated.”

“Your Face is mine!”

He Lan looked at Li Yelai, hoping to see him embarrassed, angry, and unwilling.

Those lucky ones with special abilities, upon knowing this information, were either unwilling, angry, or terrified.

This scene has played out several times.

He once beheaded and killed the heir of a King using the Heavenly Usurping Cage while surrounded by the strong of the Forbidden Zone. That talented individual of the Forbidden Zone had roared furiously but could not receive any help from guards. He Lan easily crushed him.

He once silently, secretly assassinated a family genius who was highly anticipated. That genius was a good person, cheerful and sunny, extremely talented, a disciple of a Supreme in the Giant City. His expression before death was so unwilling.

He had also, in distant Western Europe, slaughtered a beautiful girl who had acquired a powerful legacy but hadn’t matured yet. If that ability wasn’t too special, he really would have been reluctant to act.

He also used the identity of his parents to find an old Ranger who once fought side by side with them. Under the incredulous gaze of the ranger, he launched a sneak attack and severed his head!
