Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 923: Chapter 436: The 9th Champion, Li Yelai! (Part 2)

In the distance, the Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd in Li Ye’s hand rises, and the blood-colored cloak behind him moves without wind.

“The biggest mistake you made… was allowing me to successfully ascend to the Sixth Sense.”

“Without the divinity of the Ancient Dragon and Heavenly Soldiers, do you still think you can hurt me?” Lan sneers.

The person who was difficult to handle just a moment ago, now dares to boast?

Immediately, under Lan’s skin, dense azure scales grow, and his hair transforms into silver-white.

To avoid being too large and attacked, he did not assume the form of a Qilin. In human form, he has higher tolerance.

This was also Lan’s choice to avoid being seized by the Dharma Image again.

At the same time, his clones also activated their respective abilities.

Near and far!

Heavenly Corpse Soldiers!

One by one, space cubes manifest, and bone soldiers containing terrifying corpse poison are shaped.

A terrifying killing array is rapidly forming, and Lan intends to violently crush Li Ye head-on.

In that instant, Lan saw behind Li Ye, a pair of massive golden wings unfold.

Simultaneously, a hand touches the face…

Is he going to use a mask? What will it be?

He didn’t know that the moment Li Ye raised his hand, two different forces gathered in his hand, merged… ultimately becoming one.

In the next moment, Lan felt a mortal danger.

Without any hesitation, Lan quickly retreated, and at the same time, a giant space cube emerged, enveloping him inside.

Almost simultaneously, a Black Gold Dragon Pattern Halberd appeared in front of him, stabbing towards his chest at an extremely fast speed.

That is… Li Ye!

He launched later but arrived first, instantly breaking out of the killing array formed by the clones, directly attacking Lan’s body with incredible speed!

After he appeared, several sonic booms in the air finally sounded at this moment.

What kind of speed is this? A Golden Winged Roc?

What really frightened Lan was that Li Ye was still approaching, still closing in within the space cube!

The effect of Near and Far is to open a larger folded space within the space cube.

Thus, an attack that seems close at hand is actually thousands of miles away.

A thousand miles is, of course, an exaggeration. This newly crowned overlord, Lan, cannot yet open such a spatial distance in one breath.

But if the attack aims to land on oneself, it still has to cross a very long distance. At least a hundred miles.

No matter what attack, after crossing such a long distance, all power will be exhausted.

For instance, the spiritual power arrows of the Heavenly Soldiers, much faster than bullets, ultimately fall powerlessly within the space cube.

No matter how strong the power, it will be consumed by the folded space.

But now, even if Li Ye entered the space cube, he is still rapidly stabbing towards Lan.

Even if Lan retreats at extremely high speed in his own opened space,

The distance is still rapidly closing.

Lan can even see Li Ye’s face shield, the horrifying Heavy Pupil beneath it!

This indicates that Li Ye’s speed has become fast enough to penetrate the folded space of Near and Far!

Just this alone is not enough to make Lan terrified.

After all, no matter how fast, even with weakness perception, without divinity, Li Ye is not necessarily able to break through his Spiritual Barrier.

But that sense of mortal crisis comes. Every muscle, every nerve warns him frantically, warning him to escape quickly!

Death is certain! Divinity can’t protect him; he will surely die!

Even though it seems unbelievable, Lan still chooses to trust the warning of his inspiration.

Decisively, he switched places with one of his clones.

In the next instant, that clone and the space cube were directly pierced through.

And stabbed into the thorn-entwined ground, sending a spray of mud and dust into the air.

Amidst the dust, a human figure steps out, stomping on the remnants of the clone. The long spear in their hand points straight at Lan.

“It seems you’re not very confident in your divinity,” Li Ye’s voice carries a hint of laughter.

The golden wings flutter slightly, and behind the wings, a thousand Shadow Army Light Cavalry Illusions stand ready.

Shadow Army? With speed augmentation, it is terrifying? Quite comparable to the ultimate speed of the Ancient Sky Comet Dragon.

Lan looked at those golden wings, his expression somewhat gloomy: “The Mythical Mimic is, a Golden Winged Roc?”

But soon, he sensed something amiss.

Earlier, he clearly saw a pair of terrifying Heavy Pupils, which was clearly Weakness Perception!

But why would…

Through prior encounters, Lan analyzed Li Ye’s mask characteristics.

Requires manual switching, but it seems that it doesn’t necessarily have to be done by hand; an attempt can be made to seize that flaw, but the success rate is not high.

Another feature is the inability to use different masks simultaneously.

This is also reasonable.

After all, a person only has one face. If he could use so many high-level abilities at once, it would be overwhelmingly powerful.

But now, this bizarre scene has appeared.

Li Ye, while activating Weakness Perception, also maintains the presence of the Shadow Army!

Did he use two masks at the same time?

How is this possible?

This is an upgrade brought by the mask after ascending to the Sixth Sense,

Or is it a new power bestowed by the Mythical Mimic?

‘Could it be, he obtained a Mythical Creature like Kai Ming Beast, Nine Phoenix, or Nine Infant with multiple heads?’

‘But I also did not see other heads of his. Are they not manifested?’

‘A mythical creature with golden wings and multiple heads… what is it?’

Lan quickly thought while also curbing his arrogant nature, completely on guard.

Li Ye gave him a very uneasy feeling. Clearly, when he ambushed that Sixth Sense Peak old ranger earlier, he did not feel such pressure.

He probably did make a mistake; he shouldn’t have just destroyed those Heavenly Soldiers and Ancient Sky Comet Dragons, but instead attacked Li Ye with full force and killed him before he ascended to the Sixth Sense!

“It seems, the means originally reserved for the Eighth Generation Champion will have to be used here.” Lan’s eyes became indifferent and calm.

From a hero’s son who was bullied and humiliated, he grew step by step to become the powerful overlord he is today.

He has experienced far too much.

Even if plans go awry, he can think calmly.

In fact, this indeed is the power Li Ye received through the Mythical Mimic.

If among all the causes and effects, there was no suitable choice, he could only choose between the Nine Infant and Candle Dragon.

But the last cause from a more distant future brought him a surprise.

It was a gift left by the future Human Emperor, the girl with the sword.

The golden feather she left once repaired Li Ye’s Soul Well.

And this cause, under the effects of the No Regret Gem and Holy Wood Mandala, revealed its true nature.

Entering the water as Kun, creating channels with a swing of its tail, stirring the rivers and seas. Ascending to the sky as Peng, soaring with wings spread, the winds and clouds surge.

Divine Beast·Kunpeng!

And it possesses the power Li Ye yearns for. It can perfectly combine different powers, just like the Kunpeng itself.

The battle power of Kunpeng itself is also extremely astonishing.

Its speed even surpasses that of the Ancient Sky Comet Dragon.

Once the Complete Form of Mythical Mimic is unleashed, its massive size can easily raise tsunamis and create minor hurricanes.

This made up for Li Ye’s deficiencies in aerial and aquatic combat! Even without Ma No.4, he can maintain extremely high mobility!

Kunpeng has three blessings: Dragon Slayer

Causes 50% extra damage to all creatures with Dragon Clan bloodlines.

And for all attacks from Dragon Clan bloodlines, there is a 50% damage reduction!

‘Kunpeng’s Wings’ increases speed by 20%,

‘Kunpeng Power’ increases strength by 10%

These blessings and abilities have utterly transformed the nature of Li Ye’s strength!

Now, although he cannot integrate all masks into one, he can combine two masks into one!

When he struck just now, he briefly fused the Huo Qubing Mask and Xiang Yu’s Face.

Simulating Kunpeng’s Wings, enhancing speed with the Shadow Army. Then using Weakness Perception to defeat the enemy in one move!

Achieving an almost perfect rapid attack!

As for divinity… ha!

In Li Ye’s Soul Well, the Divine Demon Stele begins to reverse!

Does Lan want to seize the power? Ridiculous!

He hadn’t used full power, and Li Ye hadn’t either!

Now, he is the challenger, facing the peak-strength Ninth Generation Champion, Li Ye!

(Time to sleep, about to pass out)
