Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

One horrifying message after another spread, alarming countless lives.

The forbidden zone, the Heavenly Realm, was struck by a meteorite, leaving hundreds of thousands of creatures from the forbidden zone of Silver Mountain City with nothing but bones.

Mima, an angel adored by all, was killed by human night watchmen.

The Blackrock City allied forces and Master Craftsman Gotwin were all killed.

Yang Chen, the eighth-generation champion, uses his enemies as fire and himself as a furnace, forging himself in battle. He ascends to the rank of Overlord, slaying seven four-winged warriors, beheading one Overlord, and severely injuring another!
The various factions that received the news were abuzz with discussion.

"Even Meiwu was killed? What a pity, such a beautiful person, a natural-born chosen one of chaos."

"The champion is ruthless. He remained silent until he made a stunning move, and when he did, it was a massive one! Despite being at the sixth level of enlightenment, he fought against multiple sixth-level enlightenment cultivators and two overlords, yet he still managed to ascend to the position of overlord."

"Who summoned this meteorite that claimed hundreds of thousands of lives? Was it the Amber King from the Lava Mine City?"

"I heard he's the eighth champion, and there's an angel in the penalty area who once shouted 'champion' in Silver Mountain City."

"They've really made a name for themselves; has the era of champions arrived?"

"It's alright, every champion has their own destiny. They find it difficult to take that final step!"

Unsurprisingly, this news will become a topic of conversation among the Ark voters.

Li Yelai, who was moving within the restricted forest, was completely unaware of this.

He felt a thunderous roar in his mind, his head was spinning, and his ears were ringing badly. He felt like his eardrums were about to be blasted off.

This is the price of taking the Angel's Thunderous Roar head-on. Even with his physique, taking a direct hit at close range would leave him stunned.

He didn't activate the Abyss Dragon Scale because he simply didn't have enough spiritual energy.
Therefore, he relied entirely on his physical strength to withstand the attacks before directly charging in.

But in the end, they killed the angel at minimal cost.

He slammed his helmet to clear his mind, then used his gun as a crutch to move forward quickly.

We cannot linger; we must move constantly.

The angels are searching for him.

Li Yelai was unaware of exactly how many creatures in the forbidden zone had been affected by the Enchanting Dance.

At this moment, the angels' love for Meiwu turned into hatred for Li Yelai, and their fate would not be good if they were discovered.

Li Yelai limped into the depths of the forest, not even using his aerial stepping technique to avoid being noticed.

The wilderness of the forbidden zone is the territory of extraordinary beings, and angels usually do not venture too far in, hoping to use this to get rid of them.

As Li Yelai moved forward, he checked the equipment on his body and in his backpack.

A small cloth bag containing a strand of a doll's hair, a flare gun kept at night, and a few rounds of ammunition.

The Ark ticket, the Black Origin City token, and the hand bone of the Vast Supreme were all contained in a small box, isolated from spiritual energy.

The Jing family's extraordinary medicine, the forbidden lucky wheel, the forbidden pathfinding compass, and the forbidden Styx horn.

In terms of weapons, he has a black and gold dragon patterned spear, a summoning bell, and a molten axe.

Apart from the lost charged javelin and the large black umbrella, all other weapons and equipment are still there.

Once he recovers from his injuries, his combat strength should not be a problem.

"I need to find a place to recover my spiritual energy and injuries first," Li Yelai thought. "The angel I just encountered must have been part of the 'inevitable enemy' effect. I've had my face mask off for so long, the effect should have worn off by now. As long as I don't use my face mask, it shouldn't be easy for them to find me."

Using Facebook within the restricted area will undoubtedly attract powerful enemies, either angels or dangerous supernatural beings.

If Li Yelai is to fight, he must avoid using the power of the mask.

About half an hour after Li Yelai left, a wolf-like beast wearing a collar appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

Following the scent of blood, it found the shattered church, and upon seeing the headless angel's corpse, it let out a sharp wolf howl.

Soon, a large number of Legion troops from the restricted area arrived at the scene, and several angels appeared in mid-air.

A female angel, her face covered by a white veil obscuring her eyes, looked at the headless corpse and said, "The battle ended quickly. The killer was a male human, and his fighting style was one of trading blows for life, so he must have been very strong. His weapon was probably a spear or javelin. He was badly injured; judging from his charging posture, he must have broken a leg."

"That must be him. It's quite an achievement for him to come all the way from Silver Mountain City." A male angel, fiddling with a floating wheel, said coldly, "Come before us!"

“He killed Meiwu, don’t let him die too easily.” A blonde, golden-eyed female angel said softly, “Meiwu was so lovely, how could he do such a thing?”

"Don't worry, the last Night Scourge I caught took more than half a month to play with before it finally died." An angel holding a spiral flower rapier smiled calmly: "This isn't the first time we've hunted Night Scourges."

"Can you see where he is?" the angel in white robes asked.

“Yes, he didn’t use aerial steps to avoid revealing his psychic abilities, or perhaps because he didn’t have much psychic energy left.” The blindfolded angel pointed in a direction; her spiritual eyes could detect the traces. At this moment, she could clearly see the footprints left by Li Yelai.

She continued, "But I must warn you, he must have some tricks up his sleeve to kill Lady Miwu, who has so many trump cards. He might also be carrying a forbidden item. Don't be careless. Also, the eighth champion seems to still be in the restricted area. Should we send reinforcements?"

"Five angels and thousands of soldiers. Can't we even take down a cripple? One man and one sword could shatter his barrier." The golden-haired, golden-eyed female angel said, "If you're afraid, I'll lead the charge. I may not be able to beat the champion, but I can certainly beat him!"

Then, the four angels simultaneously stepped into the air and flew in the direction the masked angel was pointing.

The masked angel sighed, "Those who could kill Meiwu must be no ordinary person."

Then they followed in the footsteps of the angels, with thousands of legions following closely behind.

However, after about ten minutes, they had to stop by a river.

All traces disappeared here, indicating that the other party must have entered the river and left no other traces.

"He probably realized we were chasing him and left along the river," the blindfolded angel said.

"Be vigilant. Disperse all sentries and release all hounds. If you find him, do not act rashly; immediately send out the signal," the white-robed angel ordered.

The Forbidden Zone Legion then took action, launching a massive search operation deep within the mountains and forests.

Meanwhile, Li Yelai did indeed enter the river.

These are skills that night scouts must master.

After all, psionicists have many ways to track targets, such as detective tracking or scent tracking. Therefore, when hiding, it is essential to conceal one's psionic abilities and to thoroughly eliminate any traces or scent of oneself.

So Li Yelai chose to swim upstream in the river, struggling to swim for more than ten minutes in the icy water before finally reaching the shore.

It was fortunate that he was physically strong enough; otherwise, wearing armor and being seriously injured, he could easily have drowned.

After reaching the shore, he ventured deeper into the jungle until dusk, when he finally hid under the exposed roots of an ancient tree. He then dug soil to cover the roots.

Then, they took out the extraordinary medicine prepared by the Jing family. This was an unexpected medicine; when Li Yelai entered the Ark to send a message to the authorities, he had only mentioned it casually to Jing Lin.

His main goal was to get an official reply and a decision on the course of action.

Unexpectedly, the Jing family sent them their unique medicine.

I remember when Jing Lin was bragging, he said that their extraordinary drugs were extremely precious and highly effective.

Its core ingredient comes from a forbidden area in their region, a type of fruit tree that runs rampant throughout the Immortal Ruins.

That fruit tree is said to have strength approaching that of a hegemon, making it extremely difficult to harvest.

It's thanks to the Jing family's influence, well, their influence (and their power), that they were able to obtain some miraculous spiritual fruits.

However, the annual production is only a few bottles, which are only used by core members.

It's said that this drug was among the gifts the old man of the Jing family gave when he visited the Mad King, and its effects made the official researchers extremely envious. They've all lost their hair, yet they haven't been able to find a suitable substitute. Even possessing the formula makes it difficult to reproduce.

The only problem is that when using this drug, the user's own psychic energy is suppressed. Although the psychic energy barrier still exists, the power of the abilities used is reduced to one-tenth. The user will be completely refreshed after the drug's effects wear off.

The duration of the medication's effect varies from person to person and also depends on the severity of the injury; generally, it lasts for six hours.

This is undoubtedly a dangerous period of weakness for psionicists.

Therefore, this drug cannot be used in combat.

I need to find a safe place to get through this period of weakness.

"This time, I do owe Jing Lin a favor." Li Yelai was somewhat moved.

He projected the image of the mountain tiger to guard the surroundings, and then drank all the medicine.

In an instant, a powerful life force was injected into his body, and Li Yelai's heart beat even more strongly.

The fracture in my right shin is healing rapidly. The bones in my shoulder are also gradually returning to their original position.

Based on the effects of Jing Lin's breath, this bone injury should be able to be repaired directly. At that time, he will be able to fight again.

As the pain in his body gradually dissipated, Li Yelai closed his eyes to rest. Although his spiritual energy was suppressed, it did not prevent him from recovering it.

Today, Li Yelai expended too much spiritual energy, almost draining him, a four-sense spiritualist.

Soon, Li Yelai felt that he had wasted his time drinking this medicine.

The drug's effects last for six hours.

He felt almost fully recovered within the first hour.

My right foot no longer hurts, and my left shoulder, which was pierced through, feels much better.

A fracture healed in just one hour? Six hours wouldn't be enough for limb remodeling, would it? No wonder Jing Lin, despite having over a dozen broken bones after the disaster, was perfectly fine the next day. This medicine is even more precious than I imagined.

"I'd like to give Jing Lin a psionic weapon when I have the chance. It wouldn't be right to take such a valuable item for nothing," Li Yelai thought to himself.

My physical body has almost fully recovered; once my soul recovers, I need to head towards the edge of the restricted area. Staying here any longer makes me too easy to be found.

If Little Mad King were here, with her abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for her to lead Li Ye out of the restricted area.

Thinking of Little Mad King, Li Yelai wondered if she was safe. During the assassination attempt on Mei Wu, Little Mad King had gone to intercept the four-winged angel. The two hadn't encountered each other since. However, given Little Mad King's mobility, escaping the meteorite's range shouldn't be a problem.

And then there's the guy in red, Meiwu's ex-boyfriend—or rather, her ex-ex-boyfriend? He was an unexpected teammate; he held off Gotwin, creating a one-on-one opportunity for Li Yelai. I wonder if he survived the meteorite impact.

Ultimately, it's all the meteorite's fault.
Li Yelai grumbled, then picked up a fallen branch and used his molten axe to whittle it into a wooden spear. Without using psionic energy, he needed to prepare some ranged weapons.

However, three hours after taking the medication, Li Yelai heard footsteps.

His physical body had fully recovered, and his hearing had returned to its sharp state. He could even hear the breathing of extraordinary beings a hundred meters away.

At that moment, he could hear people approaching, quite a few of them, the sound of armor clashing, and it seemed there were also mounts.

Soldiers in the restricted area?

How did they manage to catch up?
Li Yelai quietly crawled out from the tree roots and climbed up the ancient tree.

From afar, a troop of soldiers could be seen advancing under the cover of night.

There were five people and a wolf beast.

No wonder they were able to catch up; they used wolves as hunting dogs, following the scent. I should have brought a bottle of chili powder.

Li Yelai's eyes flashed, and he gripped the black and gold dragon-patterned spear tightly in his hand.

He wasn't worried about what these soldiers could do to him. Even without using his psionic energy, his psionic barrier was still intact, and he possessed a physical strength surpassing that of most people with five senses. He still had combat capabilities.

He was worried that the other side would send a signal, attracting more enemies.

"They've already tracked us here. It seems we need to eliminate them before they give the signal," Li Yelai pondered, picking up the wooden spear he had just crafted.

Five soldiers advanced slowly in a dispersed formation, with the lead soldier leading a wolf.

Just then, the wolf seemed to smell something, suddenly raised its head, opened its muzzle as if to howl. But then a large foot came crashing down!
Li Yelai descended from the sky, stomping on the wolf's head with such force that it drove the wolf's head into the ground with a crack. The immense impact snapped the wolf's neck.

The knight leading the wolf didn't even have time to react; he only saw a flash of cold light before his neck was pierced.

The knight's eyes widened, filled with fear, but also a hint of malice.

'I'm definitely going to die, but you're not going to live either!'

The team has five members. If anything happens to one, the other four will send a signal. You'll be surrounded and killed by the five archangels! You lowly human!
However, as the knight fell, he saw his four teammates, impaled by wooden spears. Clad in armor, they lay dead, their eyes wide open in disbelief.

Don't forget, Li Yelai has the protection of ranged specialization, and as long as he doesn't break the contract, he is a genuine Condor Hero!

If you control the angle of the throw well, you can kill five people at the same time!
As for the armor, in the face of psionic elites, this kind of ordinary armor is no different from paper!

Meanwhile, in the camp a few kilometers away, the blindfolded angel suddenly spoke: "An entire sentry squad has been wiped out."

"Oh?" said the blonde, golden-eyed female angel who was pressing down on her. "Have you encountered a supernatural being?"

"There are no supernatural beings in this area who would intentionally kill them all at once," the blindfolded angel pointed in a certain direction.

"I understand, it's that human!" the golden-eyed angel laughed, then donned his armor. "Then..."

Before she finished speaking, she rushed out of the camp, smashing soldiers and trees to pieces in an instant.

"The hunt begins!" (End of Chapter)
