Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Ye Han's head fell and bounced on the ground. Before it could roll far, Li Yelai grabbed it.

This person is suspected to be one of the "prodigies" on the list of book holders. Moreover, such a person possesses immense fortune. It is even possible that they could be resurrected from the dead.

He was only half a body just now, yet he was able to rise from the ashes.

Therefore, Li Yelai believed that even if he were beheaded, he might not necessarily die.

Just in case, Li Yelai grabbed Ye Han's head and instantly refined it—no, instantly sacrificed it.

"Sacrifice your blood to the blood god, sacrifice your head to the throne!"

A faint prayer from the Chosen One of Chaos emanated, and the head in his hand was instantly ignited. Blood-red flames rose and transformed into scarlet aura that surged into Li Yelai's body through his arm.

The reward from the Blood God arrived, and a powerful force seeped into Li Yelai's well of souls, causing his spiritual energy projection to take another step forward on the stairs.

After undergoing the tempering of ascending to immortality and receiving the blessings from this sacrifice.

Li Yelai's psionic projection successfully crossed the fifth step and arrived at the sixth step. Seven more steps to reach the sixth awakening!

In less than three months, he advanced to the fifth level of enlightenment and completed nearly half of the steps, which is an astonishing speed.

But this was not the end. After sacrificing his head to the Blood God, Ye Han's broken body began to decay rapidly. His flesh and blood emitted a foul stench in an instant, turning into the source of the virus.

This is the power of the Chosen One of Immortality, the Blade of Plague! The wounds it causes will inevitably become infected, and may even give rise to various terrible viruses!

At this moment, Ye Han's corpse is being affected by this power, and a terrible virus is brewing within it.

This is the greatest danger of the immortal faction: creating plagues!
If his followers create a terrible plague that harms countless people, the Father of Plague will gladly bestow blessings upon them.

But now, the Immortal Palace is full of humans, and Li Yelai cannot allow the plague to spread.

Immediately, the surrounding space rippled, and a golden furnace more than three meters tall appeared, with purple flames burning inside.

Li Yelai picked up Ye Han's headless corpse and put it into the furnace.

Its flesh and blood were devoured by the flames, turning completely to ashes. Its bones, however, were forged in the furnace into some kind of liquid sphere, floating in the furnace's purple flames.

Perhaps this is some kind of material used to forge mimicry of celestial soldiers?

"So, you can't just come back to life like that, can you?" Li Yelai sneered, then walked towards the Divine Demon Stele.

Having finally killed Ye Han, Li Yelai's plan was fulfilled.

Although, a considerable price was paid
Four leaves were knocked off the Blood God's Sevenfold Shield, and it's unknown whether it can repair itself.

Part of the Mingguang armor was burned, and the remaining tattered armor hung on Li Yelai's body.

As for the mounts, Old Horse No. 5 is still alive and rideable, but crippled. The Mountain Lord's clone was also used as a shield.

It was truly bad luck; as the palace collapsed, Li Yelai defended with all his might. He even deployed his Blood God Seven-Layer Shield, as immovable as a mountain.

But in the chaos, the blood flames on the ground spread and rushed towards Li Yelai from the blind spots of the defense.

If it weren't for using the mountain king's clone as a shield, Li Yelai would probably have been riddled with holes.

Even so, a spear still pierced through the mountain king and plunged into Li Yelai's abdomen, setting his internal organs ablaze.

This was Li Yelai's most serious injury; his internal organs were burned. If it weren't for the blessing of the Chosen One, Li Yelai would probably have been replaced by Ye Han.

Actually, Li Yelai doesn't need to worry so much.

The moment he severed Ye Han's head, Ye Han's consciousness had already entered the misty space.

Ye Han's consciousness was still hazy and filled with resentment, bewildered that he, with his great fortune, had been defeated by a mere Fifth Sense. He had faced enemies two levels above him before, and remained unscathed. Even in danger, others would come to his aid. Now, a mere Fifth Sense had killed him?
He was unwilling to accept that he still had so many trump cards left to use! The Qilin boots, the wind-summoning feather fan, the black ink armor—there were so many more trump cards he hadn't revealed, and he'd been killed just like that? This filled him with extreme resentment. If it weren't for the forced draining of all his spiritual energy during his rebirth from the ashes, he could have fought again!

However, he may have forgotten that without the protection of being reborn from the ashes, he would have died long ago. So what other trump cards could he possibly have?
Soon, all of Ye Han's resentment and anger turned into final fear.

Because, from within the mist before them, a pitch-black tentacle stretched out.

Ye Han let out a terrified scream and struggled to escape, but was still entangled by the tentacles and dragged into the mist.

Ye Han wailed, still hoping that his incredible luck would save him.

"A familiar scent, another chess piece?" a being in the mist said calmly.

Soon, the sound of bones shattering rang out from the mist, but Mr. Shadow continued to accept all comers without hesitation.

Unfortunately, Ye Han only has a sixth sense and cannot trigger a new blank face.

At the same time, the book holder returned from the ark to the physical world and quickly arrived in front of the Book of Destiny.

The huge pages of the book opened before him, and on one of the pages, on a pyramid-shaped list, Ye Han's name gradually faded away, causing a chain reaction that altered the fates of a group of powerful individuals.

Some powerful individuals face death or perish, while others experience opportunities or disappear.
"How could this be? He possessed the Divine Demon Tablet, which is the natural enemy of most spiritual beings, and his luck was extremely strong, making him virtually invincible. How could he have died in the Immortal Palace?" The powerful guards here couldn't believe it.

In their plan, Ye Han's mission was not yet over.

He was drawn to the Third Border City by the rumors of the Celestial Palace, where he met a powerful figure and, through certain 'coincidences', awakened that figure's second personality.

He will then revive the Ascension Staircase and open the Tree of Time.

After that, he had other missions, and he would change the fate of some people through his actions. Until he stepped onto the final stage and faced his own demise.

But... he died!
He died just like that, right when the Tree of Time was about to open?
"I don't know. He did indeed revive the Ascension Staircase as planned, thus initiating this calamity. But for some reason, the Ascension Staircase malfunctioned, and the Heavenly Palace of the War Immortals fell!" The person holding the book looked rather grim.

However, there were some unexpected changes in the calculations.

The fate of that giant city was altered by the previous No. 71 fog. But the overall calculations were still correct.

The calamity fog still appeared, swallowing up a large portion of the city's population. At most, the outcome was unexpected.

This time, however, the Book of Destiny predicts that three branches of the Tree of Time will pierce the sky and invade this spacetime.

As a result, the Ascension Staircase, one of the anchor points, suddenly collapsed, and even the palace collapsed!

This baffled him; that was a celestial palace!

The celestial palace, built by immortals, is a creation of the gods.

The strongest psionicists there are only at the sixth level of consciousness, and even a supreme being would find it difficult to destroy a complete palace. It was a creation of the gods, and even if the gods were gone, it should be incredibly sturdy. This is one of the reasons why it was chosen as an anchor point.

Calculations suggest that humanity will pay a heavy price to capture this anchor point.

But now, before the branches have even grown, the palace has collapsed!
Three branches, one of which was directly reduced.

This turn of events was unprecedented! Some more powerful force destroyed the palace, destroyed the anchor point, and also killed the second-tier holders of the Divine Demon Monument!
They rewrote the predetermined course of fate using the most brutal means.

This caused them to completely lose the Divine Demon Tablet and disrupted many of their calculations.

"Whose fate has been disrupted?"

"That traitor among the witnesses?"

"Could it be that he has found a way to defy fate?"

“A foolish traitor; he should have been with us to change the world.”

The strong ones were discussing.

The person holding the book looked at the list, his gaze lingering on the top of the second tier. A name was slowly rising, about to enter the first tier. But it seemed to lack momentum and remained there.

"At least, the Queen of Fear was awakened. Although she wasn't fully revived, a supreme powerhouse wasn't left to languish."

"What about the Divine Demon Stele? It was supposed to die at the hands of its new owner in two years. It would only return to its original owner after three changes of ownership. Now that the Divine Demon Stele has been taken away, what if it is picked up by a witness or a wilderness wanderer?"

"Don't worry, without a specific physique, it's impossible to fully master the Divine Demon Tablet. As for its loss, it has a very significant origin."

After a moment of contemplation, the person holding the book replied, "The karma on the Divine Demon Stele is extremely heavy. If they become entangled in this karma, they will eventually meet. Therefore, we don't need to worry. It's just a pity about Ye Han; he has never questioned his destiny. He has better control over it than the other powerful figures on the list."

On the other side, Li Yelai frowned as he looked at the huge stone tablet floating in mid-air: "This is the God and Demon Tablet? It's really ugly!"

It was a stone tablet engraved with countless images of gods and demons, like a tombstone.

If you look closely at the stone tablet, you can see countless gods and demons standing there.

As Li Yelai approached, the Well of Souls automatically appeared, and the huge stone tablet rushed into Li Yelai's Well of Souls.

However, Li Yelai felt a strange sense of unease. The Divine Demon Stele seemed very unwilling, or rather, terrifying. It didn't want to enter at all, but its body was very obedient.

Li Yelai frowned; he didn't have the habit of casually putting things of unknown origin into the Well of Souls.

However, no matter how he opened the Well of Souls, he was unable to completely throw out the Divine Demon Tablet.

This reminded Li Ye of Zhao Lin's intelligence: only by killing Ye Han could he obtain the Divine Demon Tablet. He had initially thought it was a spoil of war, but was it actually an inheritance-type item?

Kill the previous holder and become the new holder?
This is a bit troublesome. Li Yelai originally thought that after killing Ye Han, he could divide up the Divine Demon Stele.

Prepare these for the dolls, the Little Mad King, and the Old Mad King. Suppress their curses.

"Fine, maybe the old Mad King can produce it." Li Ye looked around at the ruins.

The sudden change just now was indeed terrifying. The palace was extremely sturdy, and Li Yelai and Ye Han both had their brains smashed out. If this happened outside, it would probably have even broken through the mountain range.

As a result, only one pillar was broken, and the pillar is still healing itself.

The palace itself is incredibly sturdy, as if some mysterious force is protecting it.

However, after Ye Han amplified Li Yelai's curse, the incredibly sturdy palace suddenly collapsed—no, it was more like the palace suddenly disintegrated.
The mysterious power that had been covering the palace was instantly disintegrated.

"Could it be that my misfortune has been amplified, to the point that even the immortal palace couldn't withstand it? Or perhaps my curse destroyed this power, making the palace no longer sturdy? What a pity, I wonder if I can still gain any inheritance after the palace falls." Li Yelai pondered as he moved quickly.

He knew very well that his misfortune was not yet over.

A powerful enemy is approaching, or rather, it has already arrived.

Li Yelai suddenly stopped in his tracks. He saw the mountain range that had been broken by the giant snake bone.

Within that section of snake bone piercing the mountain, a colossal creature coiled, its cold gaze fixed upon Li Yelai.

It was a huge black serpent, though not nearly as exaggeratedly large as the snake bone staircase, which was thousands of meters long.

But it was also over a hundred meters long, coiled within the snake's bones. Its pair of crimson snake eyes radiated a chilling aura.

The terrifying aura emanating from it exerted an even stronger sense of pressure on Li Yelai than that of Ya Yu.

This is also an extraordinary creature that is about to rise to the status of a hegemon!
The extraordinary beings within this space, perhaps knowing that the Celestial Palace does not allow the emergence of overlords, have all suppressed their levels to the limit attainable by the Sixth Sense. If even one fails to maintain their composure, they will be blasted to death by heavenly lightning.

This giant snake had black scales and a blue head.
"The Bashe? Could it be that it's here to seek revenge because of the Golden Arrow that Shot the Sun?"

Li Yelai recognized the ferocious beast.

He couldn't help but exhale; his psionic energy was running low, and fighting a supernatural being of this strength would be very troublesome.

He expended a great deal of spiritual energy and physical strength to repair his injuries.

Physical strength is manageable; his physique is powerful and his recovery is rapid. However, his spiritual energy is lacking. Even after being strengthened by the Blood God's blessing, it's still somewhat depleted.

I don't know if it's enough for another fight?
Immediately, the space rippled and flickered, and several large buckets filled with blood appeared beside Li Yelai.

Li Yelai picked up the Blood Cloud Ring-Pommel Sword, and the blood in the bucket floated up and surged towards the sword. With limited spiritual energy, the Blood Cloud became his trump card. The more blood stored, the stronger its power.

It is the best choice now. Of course, there is also some purple-gold thunder in the gourd at Li Yelai's waist.

The forked tongue of the Bashe snake flicks in and out.

The next second, it suddenly lunged forward. Although the man and the beast were still more than 800 meters apart, it would rush in front of Li Yelai in the next instant.

But before that, a flash of cyan blade light illuminated the entire mountain range.

It even left a knife mark spanning a hundred meters in front of the Bashe.

Seemingly sensing danger, the giant snake twisted its massive body, narrowly dodging a strike. It then swiftly disappeared into the shattered mountains.

Li Yelai glanced over and saw a beautiful figure standing in the distance.

It was a beautiful young girl. She had her hair tied in a ponytail and was carrying a horse-slaying sword as she walked out of the valley.

"What a coincidence, Captain Night General. What a beautiful encounter."

The girl looked at Li Yelai calmly and spoke, but a blue flame ignited in her eyes!

Feeling that unusual and terrifying sense of oppression, Li Yelai's heart sank.

Damn it, this is awful.

This girl is the Chosen One of the Azure Flame! (End of Chapter)
