Netherworld Retrograde
Chapter 1504: A Hero Dies by Poison
The pitch-black spear collided with the Sky-reaching Giant as if to tear the entire world apart!
The earth sank, tsunamis surged, and the violent power transmitted hundreds of miles away.
This was Li Yelai’s all-out attack after ascending to Overlord!
Deeper control over Fusion Power allowed him to simultaneously bear the Three-Faced Mask and invoke the reversal of the Divine Demon Stele.
Thus, gravity formed invisible shackles, binding the formidable enemy onto a path of destruction.
Space fissures followed like shadows, weaving a death vortex around the war spear, utterly crushing everything it touched.
The essence of the Causality Divine Calamity awakened fiercely, baring its tusks at all divine existences, initiating an attack on divinity.
Once more redefining the term ‘Evil Spirit Dragon’, gaining high combat power boosts and damage reductions.
Not to mention the Annihilation Dragon’s body explosion that could already smash mountains!
All of these fused into the ‘Cute Star Sky Collision’!
This strike was undoubtedly the ultimate fusion of Li Yelai’s martial arts and power, his most resolute counterattack against fate!
Meanwhile, the Wanderer Wei Yang equally showcased the terrifying depth of a Supreme being driven to desperation!
The Mythical Form’s Secondary Liberation, a hundred-meter godly body stood towering, like an ancient mountain, radiating extreme might.
The Biomimetic Tear Drop turned into the Bronze Demon God through secondary liberation as well.
This is the Supreme’s authority, and the Supreme’s strongest form.
Perfectly absorbing personal strength and enhancing it in every direction!
This is the True Self!
Simultaneously, with the support of the remnants of the ‘Sovereign Slayer Array’ maintained at all costs by several Heavenly Destiny Walkers, Wei Yang’s momentum had already reached a breaking point. The eerie black longsword in hand exuded an unsettling dark radiance.
The sword’s body was infused with the deadliest trump card meticulously prepared by the Tian Yan lineage for the ‘Variable’. A concept plucked and solidified from some ancient myth.
‘Hero’s Fall’!
This concept can instantly suppress, or even directly nullify all positive blessings and protections on the target.
Its power is not fixed and varies with the target’s own ‘Hero’ attribute.
The more hoped for and regarded as a hero the unit is, the more terrifying the suppression it suffers, until it is completely dragged down to the Mortal World!
And the ‘Human Champion’ Li Yelai perfectly met all the conditions, nearly being the best trigger for this concept!
But this was still not all.
To thoroughly eliminate any accidents, the Heavenly Destiny Walkers had prepared more than one layer of insurance.
Apart from the longsword embodying the ‘Hero’s Fall’ concept.
The strongest assassin among the Heavenly Destiny Walkers held in hand a thrust sword.
The sword’s body was tempered with a terrifying concoction extracted from the myth’s origin: the lethal venom of the Hydra, mixed with the cursed blood of the Centaur, forming a composite Divine Poison.
This poison once killed the Demigod Hercules; its power lies not only in corroding the divine body but also in eroding the divine soul and divinity, known as the ultimate toxin against heroes.
Of course, an accident occurred in this design, who would have thought that the ‘Variable’ Li Yelai was not only the Human Champion but also, for crying out loud, the Divine Chosen Emperor Fall?
With the blessing of the Father of Plague, this toxin simply couldn’t kill Li Yelai directly.
He could drink it like water!
Of course, if combined with ‘Hero’s Fall’, a temporary suppression of the blessing might actually allow for direct poisoning.
Moreover, the true killing move is actually the combination of the two.
When the concept of ‘Hero’s Fall’ combines with the ‘Divine Poison’ that once killed a hero demigod acting on the same unit, it recreates the myth.
This is an erasure beyond the level of matter and energy, a compulsory convergence from the level of destiny!
A mythical epic ingrained in the world’s foundation possesses some kind of causality-level compulsion.
If someone recreates the key elements and situations from a myth, they may guide reality toward the predetermined outcome of the myth.
If someone wields the Xuanyuan Sword and faces the Old Mad King with a ‘Jiuli Demon Body’.
Even if both sides have equal strength, fate’s inertia will tend to let the former win, recreating the mythological ending of ‘Xuanyuan’s Divine Chiyoubreaker’.
Recreating the former mythic result…will gain powerful completion.
This is fate’s inertia.
If the Heavenly Destiny Walkers hadn’t actually been unable to find Xuanyuan Sword, they would have used this method against the Old Mad King to forge a contemporary Human Emperor.
As for how the humans of Border City, whom the Old Mad King protected, should survive after his death?
In their view, that is a necessary sacrifice. Isn’t the emergence of a Human Emperor more important than millions of you mortals?
The actions of the Heavenly Destiny Walkers are based on the same logic.
They simulated the turning point of a hero’s downfall with ‘Hero’s Fall’ and recreated the demigod-assassinating medium from the famous myth with the composite Divine Poison.
When both acted upon Li Yelai, they forcibly dragged his fate towards that predetermined conclusion.
Hero, killed by poisoning.
It’s truly ironic; the Heavenly Destiny Walkers regarded Li Yelai as a tumor of fate and a variable, yet they still had to admit that he was indeed a human hero, using this as their kill move!
Thus, Wei Yang spared no cost, unleashing Supreme Divinity to fiercely contend with Li Yelai!
At the Supreme Level, the mastery of the Divine Barrier is even greater.
The Divine Barrier absorbs nearly all attacks like flowing water and transfers them to the Void Realm and the Physical World.
Therefore, when attacking a Supreme being, its body might remain unscathed, but the land behind it and the distant mountains could collapse from the terror of the transferred force.
This is why the earth of this battlefield was crying out! Deep, bottomless fissures spread madly as if the entire continental shelf would be torn to shreds.
Li Yelai’s violent output was partially transferred by Wei Yang.
This is one reason why a Supreme is hard to shake unless the energy level of the attack surpasses the barrier’s carrying capacity or possesses a divine monster trait strong enough to penetrate the barrier, nothing can truly damage its core.
But at this moment, Li Yelai, his stats had already peaked, and he had become a Causality-level Divine Monster.
The force like a black hole crazily tore and devoured Wei Yang’s Divine Barrier, even as she forcibly enhanced herself with the remnants of the Sovereign Slayer Array, the colossal body she transformed into was still gradually being pressed down by that pitch-black Destruction Battle Spear inch by inch!
On the giant godly body, clear cracks began to emerge! The concentrated output that was too overwhelming had exceeded the barrier’s limit for instant transfer and could not be diverted!
“Boom!”
The giant Wei Yang had transformed into was forced to kneel with one knee under the irresistible force, the point where her knee landed instantly turned to dust. It was as if she was about to be pinned dead by the spear that pierced through the world onto this shattered scorched earth!
The armor condensed from the Mythical Form around her body continued to peel away and shatter, revealing the beautiful yet now bloody and mangled true form underneath.
Yet she roared, the cloak-turned spear stabbing into the Annihilation Dragon’s body, constantly shredding its intestines, firmly withstanding the Ancient Dragon’s attack. In her hand, the longsword of ‘Hero’s Fall’ struck fiercely.
In that instant, she sensed a decrease in Li Yelai’s incomprehensible explosive power. The effect of ‘Hero’s Fall’ appeared!
The numerous blessings and protections on his body were temporarily suppressed!
This filled her heart with wild joy, yet she saw the golden light flourish on Li Yelai atop the dragon’s head!
He dismissed the Monarch Token and Huo Qubing Mask.
Switching to Earth Hating No Ring·Li Yuanba! Overlord of Western Chu, Xiang Yu!
The strongest melee Face!
At that moment, the Gilded Dharma comparable to the Supreme Divinity’s Secondary Liberation Form roared, the intimidating Heavy Pupil gazing down upon Wei Yang.
What Wei Yang faced was even more frenzied stats!
Wei Yang howled: “Do it!”
Lurking in the shadows, holding the Poisoned Dagger, the strongest assassin of the Heavenly Destiny Walkers, Ji Su, also acted boldly at this moment!
