Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 929: Chapter 439: Slaying the Overlord (Part 2)

“I mean, someone has altered the fate of the Rangers. Like my parents…” Li Ye said, “Perhaps everything you’ve experienced has actually been deliberately changed.”

He Lan calmly replied, “Are you referring to the Book Holder? Maybe. My experiences are real, and I have made my own choices.”

Li Ye nodded slightly, “Then…”

“I will witness, I will bear, I will fight!”

The voice echoed in the Void Realm, seemingly communicating with a profound presence within it!

I will? Wait!

This is…

He Lan’s expression changed, damn it, it’s Divine Favor!

Chaos Chosen were always renowned as the strongest of the same rank before the Champion appeared.

This is not only because they have the powerful blessing of the Divine, but because each chosen one can borrow the power of the Divine.

They say their prayers, and in the Void Realm, they can obtain that power.

It might even attract the attention of the Evil God!

In the Divine Favor State, Spiritual Energy is almost limitless, and the Evil God’s blessing will be unprecedentedly enhanced!

This secured the invincible throne of the same rank for the chosen ones, until the appearance of the Human Champion…

And now, both the Champion and the Chosen are together in the cage.

And damn it, it’s the same person!

If the Champion acquires Divine Favor, how terrifying would it be? Might really be able to fight across ranks! He would really be in trouble!

Stop him, halt him!

He Lan roared without any hesitation, his long spear stabbing out like a dragon. Divinity burst forth, and in the Reverse Heavenly Person state, he initiated the Qilin Transformation of his body. Terrifying to the extreme!

The simplest direct stab was enough to tear open a sonic boom! Directly stabbing at Li Ye’s heart!

This spear was so fast, fast enough that He Lan almost forgot that he was originally a master of gun technique!

After obtaining the Heavenly Usurping Cage, he hadn’t used this gun technique for a long time to fight for his life.

At the same time, red light burst forth on the spear, making He Lan like a swift Meteor.

However, the voice continued to sound.

“I dye my battle robe with enemy blood, offer my heart to the Heroic Spirits, reverse fate! Swear to slay all enemies of humanity!”

“All for the Blood-colored Throne!”

Li Ye’s voice chanted in the Void Realm, singing loudly!

He Lan was shocked in his heart, do you know what you’re talking about?

All enemies of humanity?

You’re damn well a Chosen of the Chaos Twin Gods, saying you want to slay all enemies of humanity?

You yourself and the Divine you believe in are the enemies of humanity!

How dare you, as a Chosen, say such a prayer?

And as the voice fell, the Void Realm seemed to awaken again, with powerful energy appearing from the stars.

Damn it, this kind of prayer will be answered?

Is the Chaotic God blind or deaf?

Before that energy descended, He Lan roared inwardly, surpassing multiple times the speed of sound, stabbing a spear at Li Ye’s chest.

Yet at that moment, Li Ye did not retreat but advanced, even though his speed was extremely fast. Retreating could wait for the arrival of Divine Favor power.

But at this moment, he was swinging the long spear forward.

Actively colliding with He Lan!

Both weapons did not clash or block, but fiercely stabbed each other’s chest!

Both disregarding injuries, a terrifying fighting style of trading life for life!

When He Lan’s spear landed on Li Ye’s heart, Li Ye’s long spear also stabbed into the scales on He Lan’s chest.

And almost simultaneously, a black film covered Li Ye’s body.

Secret Treasure, Black Ink Armor! Activate Black Ink Armor’s ability, Bounce Back!

The violent clash instantly troubled He Lan’s hands, his flesh and skin blurred, and fractures appeared at his wrist.

The terrifying backlash of energy caused his internal organs to shatter.

But even such Secret Treasure cannot perfectly defend against the Overlord’s full power strike.

The terrifying force tore open the Black Ink Armor, penetrating Li Ye’s chest.

The Mythical Qilin Mimic ability, Space Shock!

Directly shredded Li Ye’s internal organs.

Similarly, under the Overlord’s Double Pupils, Li Ye’s long spear also pierced He Lan’s chest, tore open the defense of the Qilin Armor, and penetrated his heart.

At that moment, both were spitting blood, bleeding from the seven apertures. Yet under each other’s powerful healing abilities, they quickly repaired!

Divine Favor is fake! Or rather, the power of Divine Favor cannot intervene with the Heavenly Usurping Cage.

This guy lured me to attack actively, then proceed with… defensive counterattack?

Crazy enough! He actually managed to break through the Spiritual Barrier that possesses divinity!

He Lan had no time to think further and immediately twisted his long spear again, aiming to shatter Li Yelai’s body.

However, at that moment, he realized his wrist… oddly, hadn’t recovered?

The long spear slid powerlessly out of Li Yelai’s chest.

Moreover, He Lan felt a sense of weakness.

The pierced heart, unexpectedly, hadn’t immediately repaired?

You must know, once the Reverse Heavenly Person state is activated, as long as there’s some divinity left, many fatal injuries can be healed.

He had been shattered in the heart and even cut in half but still relied on this to survive.

This was also one reason he dared to exchange his life with Li Yelai.

Otherwise, who would risk their life against an Eternal Chosen One?

Yet this time… it seemed his divinity was stripped away by something.

The arm that originally transformed into a pale white color now restored to normal… the flesh that was pale white turned into its original bright red.

At this instant, his divinity was suppressed, causing him to lose powerful regenerative abilities!

If he couldn’t immediately recover, he… would die.

Clearly, he still retained some divinity… why?

Could it be, the Divine Calamity?

But He Lan clearly didn’t detect the presence of a Divine Calamity!

He Lan naturally didn’t know, Li Yelai indeed had no Divine Calamity. But Li Yelai himself, was the Divine Calamity!

Earlier, his long-range attacks might not have been evident.

But now, with the two engaged in close combat, the power of the Divine Calamity was revealed.

From a certain perspective, Li Yelai was the perfect counter to the Reverse Heavenly Person!

He Lan transitioned his body to divinity, and Li Yelai directly reversed it back.

If He Lan hadn’t thought about exchanging life for life, or had detected the presence of a Divine Calamity in advance.

The conclusion might have been different….

Feeling the lethal danger, He Lan decisively retreated, he had to distance himself to recover his Reverse Heavenly Person state.

Otherwise, with a missing heart, he would die!

But now, how could he be faster than Li Yelai who possessed Kunpeng’s Wings?

Just as the long spear lifted, Li Yelai slammed He Lan heavily onto the ground.

The next instant, the ring-headed knife at his waist was unsheathed.

Descending towards He Lan’s head.

However, an Overlord was still an Overlord, even with both arms broken and a heart pierced. He still possessed the power to resist.

Facing the descending blade, his hair danced wildly, transforming into a Qilin head that fiercely bit onto the blade.

Incredibly stopping this fatal strike dead in its tracks.

Actually, He Lan was also aware, he was definitely going to die.

Due to a lack of information, he had lost the ability to recover, and would soon perish.

He didn’t have a Holy Healing Potion, and even if he did, it was too late to use now.

But… but he wasn’t going to let Li Yelai leave easily!

At the moment the Qilin head bit into the blade, He Lan activated his ability on his soon-to-die body: Corpse Nuclear Explosion.

The corpse of an Overlord, at this proximity, triggered a Corpse Nuclear Explosion.

No one could emerge completely unscathed!

Simultaneously, a Space Cube appeared.

Within it, a pale white fruit was presented before He Lan.

‘To kill me, some price must be paid…’ he thought, taking a bite of the fruit: ‘So unwilling…’

With unwillingness and regret, his Soul Well exploded violently. The resulting Spiritual Energy Fluctuation swept through the Void Realm, as if announcing the death of an Overlord.

At the same time, his corpse emitted terrifying waves!

Li Yelai was not caught unaware.

He had already witnessed the Corpse Nuclear Explosion and had long predicted that He Lan might detonate his body upon death.

Thus, the prepared Dimension Slash Blade appeared, with a raise of his hand, he slashed open a spatial rift.

Throwing He Lan’s soon-to-explode corpse into it.

After that, Kunpeng Wings spread out, retreating at full speed!

But in the next moment, a terrifying consciousness suddenly surged into Li Yelai’s Soul Well.

‘Finally found you.’

‘My master’s, newly appointed Chosen!’
