Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Chapter 123 The Mad King Makes His Move!

The divine general's image appeared in the center of the battlefield, and in an instant, more than a dozen high-level insectoids pressed towards the image.

Li Yelai stood behind his teammates, shielding them from the swarm of insects. He wielded his halberd, creating a final barrier to hold back the attacking insects.

The divine general brandished his halberd, unleashing the full power of his Eighteen Single-Handed Throws! He simultaneously fought against several advanced insectoids!
Everyone knew this was a battle they were destined to lose. Even though Li Yelai was a genius, he was only a third-level spiritualist at the moment.

How to deal with the advanced Zerg that rivals the fourth or even fifth level of awareness?

But now everyone is fighting a bloody battle, desperately trying to fight against the insect swarm.

Some comrades collapsed from exhaustion and were immediately swallowed up by the swarm of insects, leaving no trace of their existence.

A comrade, severely wounded and roaring, used a dangerous forbidden object, charging into the swarm of insects amidst twists and turns and loss of control.

Some comrades recited poems and activated the Shattering Star Spear, refusing to stop even when their bodies were pierced by a sneak attack.

They are all fighting fiercely and persevering. Li Yelai must step up!
Behind him lies humanity's last hope to break through the fog of disaster!

He had nowhere left to retreat, so he fought to the death, a true champion! Embracing the glory of battle!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
Even if it only buys him a moment, he will give it his all! He will live even in the face of death!

In just a few seconds of blocking, Li Yelai felt his spiritual energy being rapidly depleted. The moment he swung his halberd, his Dharma Image was struck by several heavy blows.

The mimicry dragon scales that had been bestowed upon the Dharma image were damaged in many places.

Faced with the siege of a large number of advanced Zerg, even a Dharma Aspect of the same size could not hold on and was on the verge of collapse.

It's hard to imagine the pressure the teammates at the front are under.

But all the perseverance was worth it!
When the dazzling light behind Li Yelai burst forth, it foreshadowed the start of humanity's counterattack!

With the chanting of more than a dozen psionicists, the Spear of Shattered Stars was successfully revived!

A dazzling light emerged from its ancient and mysterious patterns. Even within the virtual realm, a terrifying psionic storm swept through, slowing the swarm's attack.

"Quick! Champion!" a psionicist roared sharply.

The psionicist, who had been reciting poetry, finally unleashed his fighting power and immediately turned to support the battlefield.

Li Yelai's pressure eased instantly. In the instant he was substituted by his teammates, Li Yelai looked back.

Then they saw Yang Chen, holding the Shattered Star Spear, charging towards the flesh and blood barrier guarded by countless insect swarms.

The Shattered Star Spear's revival time is less than ten seconds, and it can only be driven by physical strength, unlike the Sword Maniac who can control the spear.

This means that someone must break through the flesh and blood barrier within the time limit!
However, Yang Chen was confronted by a massive army. Seemingly sensing the resurgence of the Shattered Star Spear, the Zerg ordered a large swarm of insects to block the path between the humans and the Spear.

It has finally figured out the weakness of this Shattered Star Spear.

This is a god-slaying weapon that has killed gods, and it is unknown where humans obtained this weapon.

It contains unparalleled power. I am completely unable to resist it now.

However, the downside is that the startup time is very short. As long as the swarm can hold out until the startup time ends, it will win!

By then, humanity will have neither the opportunity nor the time to activate the Starshattering Spear again!

"Block him!"

The Insect Lord gave the order, and countless swarms of insects blocked Yang Chen's path. Several Imperial Guard Insects roared and pounced on Yang Chen.

But Yang Chen was fearless. The Insect Lord's idea was good, but unfortunately Yang Chen had no intention of attacking the insect horde.

Instead, he unleashed his full power: the Martial Saint stance, the Vajra body, and charged into a powerful punch.
All the muscles in his body throbbed, and his physical strength reached its peak!

Then, he raised the Shattered Star Spear and hurled it! The spear exploded with several sonic booms, shooting towards the flesh barrier like a meteor.

The Starshattering Spear possesses the terrifying power to shatter everything, so why bother to physically penetrate the swarm of insects? Is there something that can stop its attack?

As long as they are within range, all defenses are useless!
Yang Chen roared, his body suddenly accelerating, following closely behind the meteor as he charged into the swarm of insects!
Countless swarms of insects rushed toward the meteor, attempting to use their own bodies to stop the spear from getting closer.

However, the Starshattering Spear, with its power to tear everything apart, mercilessly shredded all the insect swarms along its path.

The Starshattering Spear pierced through the air, directly passing through the three Imperial Guard Insects and dozens of high-level insectoids blocking its path.

It struck the flesh barrier directly, piercing through its thick spiritual energy barrier almost without any pause, creating a hole ten meters in diameter. Yang Chen followed closely behind and rushed into the rift.

The Shattering Star Spear pierced through the flesh barrier from behind, disappearing into the rock wall behind it and continuing to penetrate.

Only after the Shattering Star Spear pierced the rock wall did the swarm of insects realize they were dead. Then they fell in droves, blood and flesh flying everywhere, turning into mountains of corpses.

Yang Chen, one shot shatters an army!

In an instant, all the surviving insect swarms let out sharp cries of agony, and the flesh and blood barrier bulged and exploded, with an endless sea of ​​blood surging out and engulfing the entire underground tunnel.

Human warriors, carrying the bodies of wounded or fallen comrades, used aerial footsteps to dodge the spreading stench of blood.

And then they saw a creature, over twenty meters tall, exceptionally beautiful and eerie, emerge where the flesh barrier had originally stood.

It possesses the upper body of a human female, with a graceful and harmonious figure. A black carapace encases its beautiful body, and behind it are dazzling, butterfly-like wings, further revealing its inhuman charm.

Her face, if one ignores her compound eyes with their countless pupils, could be described as perfect.

Li Yelai has seen quite a few beautiful women.

Doll, Cheese, and Little Mad King are all very good-looking girls, and the younger sister has been a beauty since childhood.

But it still couldn't compare to this Zerg. Its face was so perfect it felt unnatural.

Of course, if its upper body is that of a beautiful young girl, it arouses endless desires in people.

Her lower body, however, is designed to extinguish any nascent desire in people.

It was a huge, bloody, and pulsating tumor.

Horrifying blood vessels spread from the base of the tumor to the ground, extending countless tentacles.

This is the Zerg Overlord, the Zerg Lord, or the Zerg Queen!

Beautiful and eerie, she is the matriarch of all insectoids.

It has bred countless swarms of insects in the shadows, and now it has finally revealed its true form to humankind!
At this moment, it roared or howled in anger. The Star-Shattering Spear not only tore through the flesh barrier, but also pierced through its shoulder, destroying one of its arms.

"Humans, you still couldn't kill me! If you want to fight me, you'll have to let the Mad King do it! Are you worthy?" It roared angrily, and punched Yang Chen, who had rushed into the flesh barrier with the meteor, into the sea of ​​blood.

The destruction of its flesh and blood barrier by humans, along with the severe injury to its main body, enraged it greatly. The fact that Yang Chen dared to attack it alone made it feel even more humiliated.

Even severely injured, even with its original combat strength not high, it is still an Eighth Awakening expert! It is a Supreme Spiritual Energy Being! No one can rival it unless it reaches the King level!
Without the Mad King's intervention, who can kill it? It is ultimately invincible!
It will kill the humans in front of it and rebuild a new flesh and blood barrier to continue breeding its swarm!

But the next second, a terrifying sense of danger suddenly descended.

The insect master suddenly looked up.

Yang Chen charged into the flesh barrier with the Shattered Star Spear not to attack the Insect Lord, but to place the pure white jade pendant into the Insect Lord's wound.

That's a forbidden object, Tai Chi Yang!
It possesses the ability to ignore the barrier of the disaster fog and connect with the outside world through the Tai Chi Yin!
Now, the activated Tai Chi Yang, like a dazzling star, guides the Tai Chi Yin of the disaster fog!

Outside the calamity fog, atop the headquarters building that hadn't been swallowed by it, an elderly man stood with difficulty, leaning on a three-pointed, double-edged sword and holding a jet-black jade pendant.

He was so old that he seemed like he could die at any moment.

Who would have thought that this old man was the strongest in the border city? He was a madman who had faced the King of the Forbidden Zone in a bloody battle, and even attempted to fight a King of a higher level at the Supreme level.

The moment the black jade pendant trembled, he suddenly opened his eyes, as if struck by a thunderclap!
The aged and withered body suddenly became full and strong.

In an instant, the old man transformed into a burly man over two meters tall, his muscles bulging, as resolute as steel.

Meanwhile, within the virtual realm, raging energy converged and transformed into a golden throne.

The projection of the burly man sat on the throne, the king returning to his rightful place.

The old mad king has returned to his peak!
"Die!" The Mad King roared as he returned to his prime, his terrifying voice echoing through the void.

This drew the attention or vigilance of several kings of the penalty area.

They had no idea about the plan and were all worried that the old madman would resort to desperate measures and take their place before he died.

The moment they sensed the Old Mad King unleashing his full power, the Kings of the Forbidden Zone were completely focused and dared not make the slightest move.

Suddenly, the old Mad King hurled his three-pointed double-edged sword, which sliced ​​through the sky and pierced a certain spot in the calamity fog. Its power was so great that it even ripped a huge crack in the sky!

In the fog of disaster, all the humans and insect swarms fighting saw the huge meteor that covered the sky, watching it fall from the sky with an aura of destruction and crash into the ground!
A human psionicist roared, "It's the Mad King! The old Mad King has made his move!"

"If the plan succeeds, humanity will prevail!"

"Slaughter all these Zerg!"

They cheered and jumped for joy, fighting the swarm of insects even harder.

Old Mad King's intervention greatly boosted their confidence.

Meanwhile, in the labyrinthine battlefield, the Insect Lord was filled with shock and rage, channeling all his spiritual energy in an attempt to block or evade the impending attack.

The human psionicists, on the other hand, retreated quickly.

In the next instant, the Mad King's attack descended, causing the entire underground labyrinth to tremble. A huge meteor crashed through hundreds of meters of ground and appeared directly above the Insect Lord's head!

"Hahahaha, Mad King!!!" The Insect Lord suddenly laughed upon seeing the three-pointed double-edged sword: "You..."

Then, a terrifying roar drowned out all the screams and struggles. A brilliant light illuminated everything, devouring the insect lord's strange and beautiful body, and countless insect swarms around it were reduced to ashes under its light.

But humans had no time for surprise; instead, they fled in a frenzy.

Whether it was due to misfortune or the inevitability of fate, the maze collapsed at this moment.

Countless boulders fell, crashing down on the insect swarm and humans.

"Hide!"

"Collapsed!"

"The Möbius strip has been broken!"

Amidst the terrifying roar, Li Yelai couldn't even hear his teammates' shouts; he only saw a rock wall, weighing an unknown number of tons, collapse and press down on him.

"Damn it!" Li Yelai cursed angrily.

He then lost consciousness.

After an unknown amount of time, a gentle voice rang in Li Yelai's mind.

'Survive'

As the voice faded, Li Yelai's scattered consciousness was forcibly gathered together by a force.

After regaining consciousness, Li Yelai let out a painful groan.

His vision was completely black, and his mouth and nose were filled with the smell of blood.

He felt excruciating pain all over his body, especially his right hand, where he didn't know how many bones were broken.

Misfortune, truly misfortune. Misfortune is both our strength and our weakness.
This collapse must be related to my misfortune. I hope no teammates were affected by it.

Li Yelai was in great pain and tried to move his body, but found himself being held tightly in someone's arms.

The other person's arms were tightly wrapped around his neck, but it was pitch black in front of him, and Li Yelai couldn't see the other person at all.

Li Yelai could only endure the pain and reach out his still-feeling left hand to carefully touch the person next to him.

Soon, my palm touched something incredibly soft and warm, and the texture of a bodysuit.

A bodysuit? Li Yelai was taken aback: "A doll?"

Then, Li Yelai touched her neck and breathed a sigh of relief when he felt a faint pulse.

It seems the doll saved me.

Li Yelai struggled to leave the doll's embrace and groped around. After sensing a faint flow of air, he lit up the flare on his body.

They then realized that they were at a fork in the maze, where a recessed area had created a safe haven, shielding them from the massive rock wall crashing down from above.

It must have been the doll that grabbed me while I was unconscious and brought me here in the chaos.

Li Yelai even saw the Imperial Guard Insect at the bottom of the intersection, its head and shoulder smashed by a huge rock.

Not seeing his teammates' bodies made Li Ye feel a little relieved.

Looking at the unconscious doll, Li Yelai reached out his left hand and laboriously removed the doll's helmet covering its face.

Her beautiful yet pale face was revealed.

She had no external injuries, but blood was seeping from her mouth and nose, and she was unconscious. She must have exhausted her psionic energy.
Li Yelai felt increasingly guilty. He owed her a huge debt of gratitude for being saved from countless falling rocks.

It's all bad luck. If it weren't for my own bad luck, the doll wouldn't have ended up like this.

Li Yelai looked at the unconscious doll. The girl in the coma appeared exceptionally fragile, and the tight-fitting clothes that clung to her skin outlined her alluring curves, making one feel an urge to hold her in their arms and cherish her.

“Silly girl…” Li Yelai sighed, reaching out to wipe the bloodstains from her face.

As for Li Yelai himself, his right hand was twisted, and his left calf was somewhat deformed. He also estimated to have three broken ribs.
But it's not a big problem. After all, I survived. The insect lord is dead, and the elite forces of the insect swarm have been mostly exhausted. I just need to wait for the doll to wake up and let her call for teammates to support her in the virtual realm.

However, just as Li Yelai was pondering, he saw the corpse of the Forbidden Army Insect in the distance suddenly tremble.

Li Yelai was startled, and immediately hopped up on one leg while holding onto the wall.

Could this Forbidden Army insect still be alive? Damn it, how can it be alive when it's headless?

In this state of being with my doll, let alone a Forbidden Army Bug, even a Hunting Bug could have a good meal.

Li Yelai was terrified, but then he saw a tentacle emerge from the skin of the Imperial Guard Insect.

As the tentacles appeared, the massive body of the Imperial Army Bug began to rapidly shrivel, then shrank and dissolved, even its skeleton completely melting away.

Then, a strange and beautiful figure appeared inside the Forbidden Army Insect.

Looking at that figure, Li Yelai's heart was filled with turmoil!
"Lord Insect!"

Although it is much smaller in size, it looks exactly like the insect master!
It was none other than the Lord of Calamity and Fog!
How is it still alive? How did it get here? How did it evade the Mad King's attack?
The Insect Lord seemed to have spotted Li Yelai as well, a chilling smile spreading across its perfect face: "Humans, your plan has failed."
