Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

The praise of those whom God has chosen to fall from grace is not flattery.

Although the Six Rings of Ecstasy here is only a replica, it is still extremely tempting.

At the same time, it is also the second strong line of defense for the branch.

She also crossed the six rings of bliss. She lingered within those rings for a long time before finally managing to leave, and thus gained the favor of the Lord of Pleasure.

Now, Li Yelai crosses the Sixth Ring Road as if she were strolling through a shopping mall, which greatly surprised her.

Our Lord will surely rejoice at the fact that such a person has been chosen by God! He will surely bestow blessings upon him!

All she had to do was stall for time.

Yes, delaying the process.

Her plan was simple: the Heartless Fruit was entangled because of the Blood God's power.

Then prepare for another sacrifice, perform the Chaos Ritual, and strengthen the Heartless Fruit.

The consciousness of Wuxinguo and Li Yelai were completely merged, giving birth to a new chosen one.

The reason for inviting Li Ye to the branch was twofold: firstly, to keep him in check, lest he defect to the Blood God halfway through, and secondly, to prevent him from finding a way to escape Wanlong Lake.

Secondly, it was to buy enough time to prepare for the Chaos Ritual.

He will become part of this ceremony and become the chosen one within the branch!
Then, Duoyuan smiled warmly and invited Li Ye to join the branch.

This demonstrates the branch's strong foundation and resources.

As someone who is about to become a chosen one, this is theoretically Li Yelai's property. He would definitely be very interested in it.

'The offerings and rituals are not yet fully prepared; it will take at least three more days,' a high-ranking member of the Blissful Realm secretly analyzed.

'To speed things up, we can choose to sacrifice some fanatical believers. If it brings the Chosen One to appear a day sooner, it's all worth it.'

That will take more than two days.

'Then let's delay!'

'Our treasury contains so many rare and precious treasures; using them to stall him for a few days won't be a problem!'

"And then there's the legacy of the Ming and Xia civilizations. Even we haven't fully grasped it yet. If he gets obsessed, we could stall him for half a month!"

'Then let's get ready to go down.'

'Perhaps, Lord Fallen Wish could distract him.'

'Hard to say, didn't you see his championship cape?'

On the other side, Duoyuan strolled closer to Li Yelai, her gorgeous light gauze swaying gently, revealing a hazy and elegant beauty.

Through the sheer fabric, Li Yelai could see her beautiful curves.

She had an extremely beautiful face, with a delicate nose, red lips, and skin as white as snow. When she smiled, Li Yelai could clearly feel a force stirring his heartbeat.

"My companion, you are even more handsome than I imagined." Fallen Wish chuckled, a hint of tenderness in his eyes. "Why don't we walk hand in hand on the path to bliss?"

Wow, she truly is the chosen one of Bliss.

Every smile and frown carries a powerful, seductive force.

The demon generals and church elites in the distance all averted their gazes. Clearly, even they dared not look directly at the allure of the Fallen Wish.

But when she tried to seduce Li Yelai, it was like casting a seductive glance at a blind man.

Li Yelai's reaction was calm, or even non-existent.

As the champion's agent, or rather, the ninth generation champion.

Such seductive tactics are useless.

Li Yelai calmly glanced at Duoyuan.

Fallen Wish is indeed beautiful, and its style is extremely similar to that of the human traitor, Enchantress.

She was a rare beauty, but unfortunately, she met Li Yelai.

Duoyuan was well aware that her seduction plan had failed, but she wasn't embarrassed.

Instead, he chuckled and said, "Please come with me; your compatriots are waiting for you."

The church has prepared a grand banquet for him.

When Li Yelai and Duoyuan entered the banquet hall together.

High-ranking officials and nobles from various city-states have arrived one after another.

They were all high-ranking followers of the branch, and Li Yelai could even sense the spiritual energy fluctuations of a hegemon among them.

After bowing to Li Yelai, they loudly praised the power of Bliss. Then, the banquet began.

Unlike the bloody battles of the Blood God, the banquet at Elysium was quite unique.

Here, opulent decorations and exotic clothing complement each other, gold and silver jewelry glitter among the decorations, and shades of pink, green, and deep purple highlight the debauchery and depravity of its followers.

The female followers, dressed in light gauze, swayed gracefully, as if every movement spoke of an endless pursuit of desire.

The banquet venue was exquisitely decorated, with gold and silver utensils gleaming under the candlelight and intricate and alluring patterns painted on the fine porcelain.

The table was laden with all sorts of delicious food, from fresh seafood to exquisite desserts, all of which tantalized everyone's taste buds.

However, these delicacies were only the beginning of the feast.

The real allure lies in the irresistible dance of desire.

As the music began, the banquet gradually reached its climax.

The high-ranking followers, dressed in magnificent attire, swayed and danced with abandon, seemingly driven by desire.

They smiled at each other or whispered to each other, their eyes revealing a desire and a flirtatious intent. In this atmosphere, morality and constraints seemed to be forgotten, leaving only the ultimate pursuit of pleasure and satisfaction.

The power of chaos permeated the banquet, seemingly capable of satisfying everyone's desires.

Li Yelai and Duoyuan sat in the head seats.

Together, we savor this ultimate indulgence and debauchery.

'What a nightmare scene,' Li Yelai thought to himself.

Those who are unaware of the situation might think that the Bliss Faction is a group of perverts who spend their days posting lewd pictures and playing games.

In reality, however, lust is only a small part of the Elysium sect.

He saw some followers twisted in debauchery, and he also saw a high-ranking follower bite a girl's neck and swallow her whole amidst her screams and groans.

I also saw that the instruments that played beautiful melodies had human faces or eyes on them.

Those musical instruments were all alive, or rather, they were originally human beings who were transformed into musical instruments through an evil ritual.

Each pluck, each note, ravages their pain receptors, a silent, agonizing wail echoing in everyone's minds. Yet, it brings a satisfied smile to the faces of the ecstatic devotees. This persistent and intense wail satisfies their ever-growing desires.

This is too abnormal! Even as one of the chosen ones of the Chaos Gods, Li Ye felt it was too abnormal!

The Blood God faction is bloody and cruel.

The immortality faction is disgusting and filthy.

But in the Ecstasy faction, all that remained was disgust. As the thresholds for various desires were constantly raised, they became increasingly perverse in their pursuit of satisfying those desires. Li Ye was even grateful that he had come alone.

Otherwise, this scene would probably become a nightmare for his teammates.

"How are you feeling, my companion?"

Attended by several stunningly beautiful young men, Duoyuan lazily glanced at Li Yelai beside her: "These musical instruments are our collection from many years ago. Because we need virgins from the Whispering Path as materials, we need to nurture and accelerate their growth when they are young, making them psionic beings. We also need to let them feel the warmth of humanity, and transform them into musical instruments when they are at their happiest. The success rate is very low. Our branch only has thirteen musical instruments so far."

"We brought out everything to entertain you."

"I dislike this cruelty. I prefer to crush my enemies myself and listen to their wails." Li Yelai's chaotic aura grew stronger, and he uttered words that were in line with the Chosen One of Bliss.

"Consider it a meal replacement. I'll make sure you get what you want when the opportunity arises." Fallen Wish smiled.

Li Yelai continued, "Is this all the foundation you're talking about? It doesn't improve your combat strength at all."

“Of course not.” Duoyuan stood up and laughed, “Alright, the banquet is over, and I should take you to see the real foundation.”

As Fallen Wish clapped his hands lightly, the music and wailing at the banquet abruptly stopped.

Soon, more believers poured out to clean up the mess in the banquet hall.

One by one, mangled bodies were carried out, one by one, the irrational victims were cleared away, and one by one, precious musical instruments were collected.

It was just a banquet, yet it came at such a price, but most of the followers didn't feel anything was wrong.

As Lan Shi looked at the scene before him, his fear intensified.

But the pursuit of power overwhelmed fear; to avoid becoming mere material or food to be manipulated, one had to climb to a higher level!
On the other side, Li Yelai and Duoyuan headed deeper into the palace after leaving the hall.

'After all, he was once a champion's agent. Compared to indulging in other desires, he yearned for the pursuit of power.' Fallen Wish pondered to himself.

He led Li Ye through the palace, pointing out the eerie paintings on the walls.

Some of these works come from their collections, while others are masterpieces created by divinely chosen artists who are experts in the field.

The paintings were eerie yet magnificent; one glance was enough to draw you in.

If these paintings were scattered throughout the giant city, they could cause widespread collective mental distortion.

Today, these scrolls serve as the branch's third line of defense.

As they traveled and received explanations along the way, Li Yelai gained a better understanding of the combat deployment of the Blissful Branch.

Although it is not as powerful as the Qinling headquarters of the Blood God faction, it is still stronger than a typical branch.

The Blissful Faction attaches great importance to Wanlong Lake and has invested a considerable amount of combat power there.

Unfortunately, they encountered Captain Yang Chen, a demon general of the overlord level. He was killed with a single punch the moment he appeared, and a large number of experts were also wiped out by the team.

However, the branch's defensive capabilities are still overwhelming.

Li Yelai thought to himself as he followed them to the outside of the black stone wall at the deepest part of the palace.

"This is our treasure trove. It is also the foundation of our strength." Fallen Wish chuckled, and as she raised her palm, mysterious patterns appeared and shimmered on the huge black wall.

The next second, the black stone wall opened up, transforming into a huge stone gate.

Duoyuan gestured for him to enter and then went through the stone gate first.

Li Yelai then stepped inside.

He knew that this must be the treasure trove of the Bliss faction, and if he became the chosen one of Bliss, he would have the right to control everything here.

Upon entering the stone gate, Li Yelai saw a dazzling array of objects.

Some unique spiritual plants and minerals from Wanlong Lake, some potion ingredients, and some low-quality psionic weapons.

There are quite a few, but they can't compare to the inventory of the Blood God Qinling headquarters.

As expected, there is still a significant difference between the branch headquarters and the main headquarters.

Li Yelai thought to himself.

"Don't look down on this trash." Fallen Wish chuckled. "You are God's chosen one. In the years when the Prince and the Great Demon were not around, we were the highest-ranking beings in the Bliss faction. These things are not worthy of you."

"These are rewards prepared for those believers who have made contributions."

“I know your armor has been destroyed, we will prepare a brand new A-grade psionic armor for you.”

"If your weapon is damaged, it will receive the best repair or reforging. Our artisans in Bliss are naturally the best."

“I’m looking forward to it,” Li Yelai nodded, seemingly quite satisfied.

This is what the Fallen Wish hoped for; the great city and the church are different.

To acquire resources, the giant city needs to purchase them with merit points, which are accumulated by the staff through performing various tasks over time.

The church, however, is different; status determines everything. As God's chosen ones, they are theoretically entitled to access any resources.

This outpouring of resources is a huge attraction for those who want to become stronger.

Seeing that Li Yelai seemed quite satisfied, Duoyuan's smile became even more beautiful.

"The best stuff is down there," Duoyuan said with a smile, leading Li Ye further into the treasure vault.

After passing through another black stone wall, Li Yelai asked, "Is this stone wall also a relic of that civilization?"

"That's right, or rather, this entire site is the tomb of a monarch of the Mingxia civilization."

“A grave?” Li Yelai frowned. “A king? You’ve dug up a king’s grave?”

"You could say that the Mingxia civilization divided space, leaving the spark of civilization on the second level. They also left behind a sufficient legacy, and this tomb is one of them," Duoyuan explained. "According to their plan, the tomb keepers would take on the responsibility of transmitting knowledge and civilization, so that the spark could develop rapidly and once again become a powerful human civilization. But unfortunately, the rise of extraordinary beings was beyond their expectations. During that period, the tomb keepers transmitted knowledge while simultaneously fighting against these extraordinary beings, until..."

"Did a gravedigger become a follower of the Lord of Pleasure?"

“Indeed.” Fallen Wish smiled. “They monopolized the dissemination of knowledge and destroyed the other gravekeepers, thus connecting us.”

"This also allowed us to perfectly inherit this complete tomb and gain some powerful legacy."

"What a joy it is that we intercepted the Wanlong Lake civilization, which should have risen to prominence!" Duoyuan's face was flushed, seemingly extremely excited.

As she spoke, she pointed ahead, and beams of light appeared, illuminating the depths of the treasure vault.

At the same time, Li Yelai saw many wondrous creations: forbidden objects, secret treasures, and mysterious substances related to the five or six senses.

There were even the carcasses of three enormous, ferocious beasts, remarkably well-preserved.
I felt Li Yelai's body tremble slightly.

Duoyuan chuckled inwardly. Sure enough, they were attracted by the massive amount of supplies, weren't they?

How many missions do powerful officials have to complete before they can trade for potions and psionic weapons? Now that so many precious items are right in front of him, wouldn't he be drooling with envy?
In fact, Li Yelai had seen a lot of things; he had emptied the two most valuable floors of the Blood God Qinling headquarters.

But when Zi saw those three powerful corpses, he was actually quite excited.

Old Ma No. 4, Tianhui Ancient Dragon, is already obsolete.

He needs to find Old Ma No. 7.
It seems that the seventh, eighth, and ninth have all been arranged.

How could he not be excited?
At the same time, Li Yelai sensed a dangerous aura filling this space.

“At the deepest part is the tomb of that nameless king, containing technology and science that we cannot yet comprehend. In order not to damage the items inside, we did not attempt to force it open,” Fallen Wish explained.

Li Yelai, however, felt a sharp gaze cast from deeper within, fleeting and ephemeral. (End of Chapter)
