Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

A painful roar came from the cave, echoing through the snow-capped mountains like the mountains weeping.

Li Yelai felt a tearing sensation in his brain, a terrifying tremor tearing at his mind. Countless expectations and hatreds of the past transformed into sharp blades piercing his heart, churning wildly.

The heartache was suffocating him, and brought tears to his eyes.

Countless images flashed before my eyes.

He saw his father, who had suddenly disappeared, leaving behind a farewell letter at home.

He saw his mother, emaciated and tormented by illness, lying in her hospital bed, still waiting for her lover to return.

He saw his sister wailing before the grave, and himself filled with pain and anger.

The mother waited for this man until her death, and even used sign language to tell Li Yelai that he would definitely come back, he would.
At that time, Li Yelai couldn't understand it.

My mother is beautiful and accomplished, with a high level of education. Although she is mute, she has ensured that my sister and I do not fall behind in our studies.

She comes from a distant metropolis, and her family is said to be quite well-off.

Li Qiong once boasted that he defeated numerous competitors and even took down several groups of the bride's family members before finally winning her heart.

These words made his mother blush and pound his chest, while he grinned and said, "Cuihua! What are you doing, Cuihua!"

Some of the funny nicknames only made the mother hit harder.

My mother changed her name, and for some reason, she chose the name Cuihua. When my father was being silly, he would call my mother Cuihua.

At the time, young Li Yelai thought he was just bragging.

But it's also incomprehensible why such an excellent mother would fall for a lazy, good-for-nothing like Li Qiong, and go through all the trouble of coming to Border City No. 3 incognito.

Even until death comes, we should still hold onto our expectations for him.

He clearly abandoned his wife and children! He's a scumbag!

This also made Li Yelai extremely hate Li Qiong, and hate the father who left when his mother needed him most!

Even if death is irreversible, you should at least be with her in her final moments. Bastard!
For the past six years, Li Yelai has hated him every moment.

The hatred he had harbored for so many years had now turned into a sharp blade, piercing Li Yelai's heart and causing him excruciating pain!
"Ahhh... Why is this happening? What did I do?!" Li Yelai clutched his splitting head and roared in pain. He never imagined he would see his father, Li Qiong, here.

In Li Yelai's original understanding, this man had clearly abandoned his mother, leaving the city when she needed him most, and then disappeared without a trace.

Li Yelai had often fantasized about finding this guy.

This guy might have started a new family in another big city, and he'd be at a loss when Li Yelai found him.

Or they might return to Border City No. 3 to beg their children for forgiveness, only to be met with indifference or violence from Li Yelai.

Or perhaps it's something else entirely. Li Yelai would assume he was already dead.

But I never imagined I would see him here, witness his end and death.

He is really dead.
The man before me had been horribly ambushed before his death, his right ankle severed. He had dragged his broken leg to break through the encirclement and fight his way here. But even as death approached, he refused to let go of his left hand, desperately protecting the wondrous white spiritual fruit.

His once handsome face was now filled with pain and despair.

He obtained a spiritual fruit, and almost, just almost, he was able to return to the giant city. He was almost able to save his wife.

Pain and despair filled Li Yelai; he was so close.
All the tragedies could have been avoided; the mother wouldn't have died, and the father could have survived.

'I'm sorry, Xiaolian, I can't go back.'

The echo resounded once more.

This caused Li Ye immense pain. He dropped the black-gold dragon-patterned spear and tremblingly reached out to close his father's eyes, but was afraid of disturbing Li Qiong's body.

He could only kneel before Li Qiong's corpse, weeping bitterly, his heart clenching with pain.

Li Qiong never abandoned his wife and children; he simply died on his way home and could never return.
But he himself hated him for six years because of this.

Endless pain and despair nearly overwhelmed Li Yelai, threatening to drown him. Even the Well of Souls began to tremble, showing signs of collapse.

As a psionicist, extreme emotional fluctuations can lead to distortion.

Li Yelai struggled to breathe, trying to calm the pain in his heart.

What followed was an overwhelming killing intent born from pain and despair!
Li Qiong was just one step away from returning to the giant city, but when he left the snow mountain, he encountered the Withered One and had his right leg severed in a sneak attack. He was then chased all the way here!

It's all them! It's all them!
These bastards!

Kill them all! Slaughter them all! Leave no one alive! Kill them all!
kill!kill!kill!

Li Yelai practically ground his teeth to powder, his killing intent so palpable that it caused the temperature in the cave to drop even further.

A terrifying killing intent created a strange connection between Li Yelai and the mask.

One voice after another appeared.

'If one day I become the Green Emperor'

'We will not rest until the blood is spilled and everyone is dead.'

'All barbarian tribes, both inside and outside the borders, who dare to raise arms, shall be beheaded! Slay the barbarians!'

Three powerful figures from history and legend responded to Li Yelai's murderous intent.

Li Yelai could vaguely see the figures of those beings.

The first person to appear was a middle-aged man wearing armor but holding a book.

He stood beneath the ancient city, seemingly refined, yet his killing intent boiled over, leaving rivers of blood and wailing echoing everywhere he went.

Behind him, one after another, well-dressed noblemen were mercilessly slaughtered by soldiers.

The second one to appear was an emperor wearing the emperor's yellow robe, but holding a butcher's knife.

"Slay the barbarians!"

With his command, countless heads rolled.

The third image shows a young soldier dressed in black leather armor, carrying a black Qin flag in one hand and a Qin halberd in the other, fighting on the battlefield.

All three beings exuded a terrifying killing intent, as if they were waiting for something.

Li Yelai quickly pulled a black object from his inner pocket. It was a palm-sized black jade horn.

That is a forbidden object, the Styx Horn!
Yes, the Horn of the Styx can temporarily revive the dead; it is a true resurrection, not manipulation of the corpse.

The resurrected corpse retains its memories and consciousness from the past.

The requirement is that the deceased's brain has not been destroyed. On this cold, snowy mountain, Li Qiong's body is well preserved, and he can be temporarily revived by blowing a horn.

The cost, however, is the urge to piece together limbs, which intensifies with continued use.

Ultimately, it would become a terrifying monster pieced together from countless limbs! But if it was only once, Li Ye could afford the price.

He can see his father again and talk to him again.

But not now.
"Old Man" Li Yelai sighed, "It's been so long since we've seen each other, we should have had a good chat. But I'll have to keep you waiting a little while. It'll be quick."

"Wait until I kill them all!"

"Slaughter them all, leave no one alive! Tear them to pieces!"

"Afterwards," Li Yelai choked up, "we'll catch up properly again!"

Tears fell, weakness faded, and what remained was an iron will for revenge!
Li Yelai worked hard to restore his spiritual energy, and once it reached its peak, he drew the golden bone sword from behind him. Without the slightest hesitation, he plunged it directly into his chest!

My heart was pounding wildly, as if in defiance of death.

But Li Yelai forcefully plunged the bone sword into his body, feeling his life force gradually dissipate, yet he gritted his teeth and said, "Leave no one alive, kill them all!"

"kill!"

Blood dripped from the bone sword, forming a pool of blood, and even froze due to the low temperature, while his body was rapidly heading towards death.

But the heart refused to give up, pouring its remaining life force into the body to repair the damage to the internal organs, but it could not stop a person who was determined to commit suicide.

Yes, people who commit suicide.

But Li Yelai's suicide was not for the sake of death!
Because he knew the true identities of the three respondents and determined how he could further contact them!
Just as Li Yelai plunged his sword into his own heart, the bone sword in his hand was deflected by a force, his fractured left arm rapidly healed, and the blood on the ground was also instantly repaired and flowed into Li Yelai's body.

At the same time, the Qin soldier holding the Qin halberd that Li Yelai had seen stepped forward, met his gaze, and smiled.

The next instant, Li Yelai saw the young man holding a Qin spear, standing in the midst of the army formation.

They formed an army with thousands of soldiers and fought against the enemy.

"We will fight until the blood runs dry and we die!" he roared as he beheaded the enemy!

Because of the Qin Dynasty's twenty-rank military merit system, a young man's status rose higher and higher as he accumulated military merits.

His armor also improved over time, evolving from leather armor to bronze armor.

Finally, he even donned the iron armor that was rare in that era.

He was no longer young. After experiencing countless bloody battles, he had entered his twilight years, his hair white but still vigorous.

The number of soldiers behind him increased, and their status rose accordingly.

He became the greatest general of his time. His fearsome name was known throughout the lands.

He led the most terrifying army of that era to Changping in the State of Zhao.

The most terrible war of that era had begun!

After the battle, he looked down at the soldiers in the crater, countless arrows and swords embedded in their bodies, enough to kill him hundreds of times over, yet they still hadn't killed him. He was like a monster.

He was bound by chains, barely recognizable as human, and pinned firmly to the deep pit.

"You can't kill me, Lord Wu'an," the soldier said with difficulty.

"I underestimated you, Ma Fuzi. You perished along with 400,000 soldiers," the white-haired general said, his aged voice surprisingly powerful. "Unfortunately, this era ultimately belongs to me, to the Great Qin!"

“You will not have a good end,” Ma Fuzi replied with difficulty.

The white-haired general nodded: "It's alright, let me bear the name of killing surrendered soldiers."

Immediately, the most terrifying order of the era was issued.

Four hundred thousand Zhao soldiers were all massacred!

He was also known as the butcher. As Ma Fuzi said, he did not die a peaceful death, committing suicide with a sword in his later years.

This was also the last step Li Yelai took to communicate with him. Li Yelai had killed a large number of angels and forbidden zone legions, and now he was reconnecting with cause and effect by committing suicide.

Then, in the eerie space, a new mask appeared on a blank mask. It was a white mask with black patterns, full of solemnity.

Li Yelai's injuries, however, were completely healed.

Physically healed, psychic powers restored. Time for revenge!
On the other side, a few hours later.

On the snow-capped mountainside, two withered creatures, left behind, are chatting idly.

They were still eyeing the psionic armor on Li Yelai.

“It’s a real pity. If we could go deeper into the snow mountain, we might have found some good stuff,” said a female withered creature. “I still don’t have any psionic weapons.”

"Don't even think about it. You know what happened six years ago. Those humans and the angels who chased after them were all formidable. They were all fiercely defiant, but in the end, we severed their tendons and turned them into breeding machines. They even committed suicide. The strongest one escaped into the snowy mountains. None of his companions who chased after him ever came back." Another withered male laughed, "If we hadn't cut off one of his legs back then, he might have actually escaped."

“That one is also very powerful, killing me nine times.” The female withered one shuddered and said, “She’s quite a figure in the outside world.”

"Hey, I heard from those angels that the human trespassed deep into the forbidden zone, killed several high-ranking angels, and stole one of their treasures. He was about to escape when he ran into us. He's just unlucky. Hahahaha." The male withering man laughed, "I heard he was crying when he was running away."

“How weak! If you don’t want to die, just stay in the village! What’s there to cry about? Hahahaha,” the withered woman laughed.

The male withered beings looked up in astonishment, while the female withered beings also quickly turned around to look.

Then a figure appeared from the mountainside of the snow-capped mountain. He was carrying a long spear, and the oil lamp attached to the spearhead was so bright and conspicuous in the dark night.

It was none other than Li Yelai, whom they had chased into the snowy mountains!

"He's still alive!" The female withered one was overjoyed and immediately shouted in the virtual realm, attracting several withered ones who were patrolling at the foot of the snow mountain to rush over.

She was overjoyed by this unexpected gift. Although she was immortal, she was also unable to grow stronger. If she could obtain a psionic weapon, it would be a huge boost to her combat power.

The withered male suddenly changed his expression, feeling an unprecedented fear.

The murderous intent that permeated the air was so intense and pure!

How could this be? The withered ones are part of the divine tree. As long as the divine tree lives, they are immortal. Why would they sense danger?

He wasn't given any indication of how he would react.

At the same time they saw Li Yelai, Li Yelai also saw them.

Without any hesitation, Li Yelai immediately activated his facial makeup, summoning Huo Qubing and the legendary swordsman Fenglang Juxu!

Shadow Army, swift as the wind!
The Shadow Army moves like thunder!
He launched a charge in an instant, and hordes of heavily armored cavalry appeared, transforming into a steel torrent!
A striking snow line was drawn across the snow-covered mountain.

Moreover, under the terrified gaze of the withered beings, a massive avalanche actually occurred on this terrifying snow-capped mountain!

The terrifying avalanche roared down like a tsunami, following the torrent of steel, as if it wanted to devour everything.

Li Yelai arrives with a calamity!

The Demon Lord descends the mountain, and the Killing Star descends! (End of Chapter)
