Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

For the Chaos believers within the Blissful Branch, this day was too surreal.

This was originally a naming ceremony for a great chosen one. After the ceremony, the church would welcome a powerful chosen one and a Chaos artifact.

According to the high-ranking members of the branch, this will be their most glorious moment, and the starting point for them to conquer the world with the Heartless Fruit and corrupt all living beings.

After all, the Heartless Fruit has already begun to spread to the outside world, and it will spread even more rapidly with the war!

They've even started considering defining this day as their festival of depravity.

As a result, this incident occurred.

Li Yelai, who should have been chosen by the gods, not only betrayed the faith of Bliss and harmed the Heartless Fruit, but also attracted the power of the Blood God!

Or perhaps, he was an undercover agent for the Blood God faction? The mysterious chosen one of the two gods?
Is this a conspiracy by the Blood God faction?
No, it's more like a treacherous conspiracy!
He not only unleashed a massive number of mimic celestial soldiers to slaughter the Chaos believers, causing enormous casualties within the branch headquarters, but he also imprisoned the noble and beautiful Fallen Goddess in the Thorn Cage.

The advanced believers suffered heavy casualties in the sudden attack by a large number of mimicking heavenly soldiers.

Instead of attacking the powerful overlords and Sixth Awakening experts, they specifically targeted the weaker church psionicists.

This caused chaos within the branch, with the Chaos Legion launching an attack to besiege the Mimic Heavenly Soldiers, who then used their teleportation abilities to disperse.

This kept many church elites busy. It was difficult to suppress them all in a short time.

With the addition of spies from outside launching an attack at this moment, the branch is truly beset by internal and external troubles.

If the ruins' defense system hadn't been intact, and the Night Scouts hadn't personally launched an attack, the situation here would have been even worse.

Unfortunately, these mimicking heavenly soldiers did not possess divinity.

Facing overlords and those at the Sixth Awakening level, it's difficult to inflict effective damage. This is why Li Yelai sent the mimicry celestial soldiers to kill other Blissful Realm experts.

The commotion inside the Awakening Hall has now been completely quelled.

The extraordinary beings and church experts guarding this place maintain its safety.

After smashing the last simulated celestial soldier in the final hall, the aged overlord then looked at the thorny cage outside the hall.

It was a large clump of thorns, placed conspicuously in the middle of the hall.

Neither opening it nor moving it was successful.

The Fallen God and Li Yelai were imprisoned there.

"What exactly is this?" the aged overlord asked, frowning.

"It's a cage for our chosen gods. Overlord He Lan once possessed a similar treasure, but his had golden patterns on it," a blood-soaked high-ranking member of Blissful Paradise replied. "Its effect is to trap the target and oneself within a created space. Within this space, external interference is impossible. The two sides can only fight to the death! Only when one side dies will the cage open."

This made many powerful experts in the highest realms extremely ugly, though they didn't want to admit it.

But even if the chosen one of the Fallen Gods gives his all and enters God's favor, he still cannot defeat the champion agent.

The champion agent was already powerful and also entered the realm of divine favor.

Those who fall into God's hands are doomed to defeat!
"Can't we open it?" the elderly overlord asked.

"At our level, there's absolutely no way to break this cage. Perhaps when the Chaos Artifact is activated, the Great Prince's incarnation might be able to shatter it."

"Surround this cage! If the prince appears in his true form, we can rescue the chosen one of the fallen gods."

"If it's activated prematurely, we must do everything in our power to hold it off and await the arrival of the Prince's avatar!"

"This kind of traitor must die!"

"Rest assured, once this traitor dies, you will all receive our Lord's reward!"

This caused a moment of hesitation to cross the mind of the aging overlord.

Although he joined the Chaos faction and embraced the Chaos faith, gaining considerable benefits, the Heartless Fruit within him had been removed, and his greatest concern had been eliminated.

Now, should we still risk our lives for chaos?

Why not join forces with the outsiders to wipe out the Chaos faction? After all, he is the only human overlord in the land, and the authorities probably won't kill him directly. Perhaps they will even reward him for abandoning darkness and embracing light.

But soon, they saw three extraordinary creatures closing in, along with several elite members of the church.

He gave up the idea.

He was human, and at least he had a choice. But how many humans have these three city-state's 'guardians' devoured over the years?

Being outsiders, they will not be left behind. Therefore, they will never betray chaos.

Among them, the strength of that dragon was no less than his own.
Although the Elysium faction appears to be in disarray, its organized legions still exist.

The Chaos Artifact is about to be activated. Once the projection of a prince of supreme strength descends, all the chaos will be quelled.

Even if he joined forces with the champion's agent, it would be impossible for him to contend with the prince's projection and so many church elites.

So he made his own choice and guarded the cage from another direction.

And it raised its hand to collect a large amount of water, which then enveloped the cage.

Chaos or humanity, he'll side with whoever wins!

Chaos has a better chance of winning now.

He considered himself the overlord.

Choose between a lone champion in enemy territory and a Chaos faction with more combat experience as an ally.

The result is obvious!
He can't afford to make the wrong choice again.

Previously, he was wary of the champion Yang Chen's existence. He dared not side with Chaos, nor did he dare to assist the authorities.

Later, when Chaos besieged Moonshadow, he chose to attack the Chosen One.

After being taught a lesson and suppressed by the Chaos faction, this once mighty overlord became a servant of the chosen one.

This is the price of making the wrong choice.

Now, he won't make the wrong choice again!
Therefore, when he discovered that the cage of heaven and earth was beginning to collapse, the old overlord decisively released his divinity.

He was well aware of Li Yelai's strength; among the Six Senses, he probably couldn't find a worthy opponent.

He is a true powerhouse who can challenge the overlord!
But no matter how powerful, it is still only the sixth sense. The difference between spiritual energy and divinity is so enormous!
Even if I can't take him down immediately, I can still inflict damage on him.

Want to force him to back down? Then you'll have to let Yang Chen do it!
I can't beat Yang Chen, but I can't beat you?

If he could capture him, or even take him down before the projection of the Chaos Power descended, he might gain the favor of the Lord of Pleasure!
Now that the chosen one within the branch has died, I, as the only human overlord in the branch, will gain even greater power. Even if I cannot become the chosen one, becoming a demon general would be a good alternative.

No, if he can win the championship, becoming the Chosen One will no longer be a dream! That's the championship!
However, in the instant he sprang into action, he heard a sigh of regret.

It seems to be an elder expressing disappointment in a younger person.
He didn't know where the sigh came from, but he witnessed a strange scene.

The moment the cage of heaven and earth was broken, three figures rushed out simultaneously.

Wasn't it said that the knot wouldn't be untied unless someone was killed or rescued? How come three people were able to escape?
Could it be that the Fallen God's Chosen and the Champion had a child inside them quickly?
The old overlord had no time to think, and the three streams of spiritual energy, filled with hostility and killing intent, surged in the void.

Anyone who comes must be an enemy!
Divinity surges, mythological mimicry transforms into a serpent!
The water he had prepared beforehand instantly transformed into an extremely high-pressure vortex, intent on tearing the three people inside to shreds!

At the same time, the other extraordinary beings and church elites also launched an attack!

They must suppress Li Yelai the moment he appears, until the projection of the Chaos Prince arrives!

However, the first thing to arrive was an extremely low temperature.

Within the raging vortex, a colossal phantom emerged, its eyes containing the sun and moon, the moonlight seemingly draping it in an elegant armor of moonlight.

It opened its mouth and exhaled, instantly freezing and shattering the vortex.

Extreme low temperatures erupted in an instant, and a large number of church masters were imprisoned and frozen in that moment.

Even the aged overlord felt the coldness on his skin. Layers of frost appeared on the divine barrier.

The champion has this ability?

"Without divinity, you cannot harm me!" he roared, his arm transforming into a giant ape fist, shattering the frost with a single punch.

However, the next moment, he saw a massive army!

Thousands of Shadow Army heavy cavalry gathered and spun in mid-air, instantly rushing towards the old overlord like drills!
Shadow Army, Thunderous Strike!
"Head-on clash? Come on!" the Overlord roared, his hands mimicking giant ape iron fists as he slammed out.

It collided violently with the drill bit!
Although he is old, he is still the sole overlord of this land. He was once a powerful figure who conquered all directions with the name of Iron Fist!
He also had moments of intense passion, even taking the enemy's psionic weapons head-on with his fists.

Now, facing a sudden attack from a sixth-level expert, how could he, a dignified overlord, possibly retreat!

The clash between divinity and psychic energy can only result in utter crushing defeat!
But the overlord felt his giant ape fist, which contained a great deal of divinity, shatter in an instant.

The powerful divinity was suppressed, and the hard iron fist was shattered.

The mimicking giant ape's iron fist was torn apart, and the drill fell straight down.

A pair of terrifying double pupils seemed to flash before my eyes.
His inspiration struck at that moment, urging him to dodge with all his might! Taking the hit head-on would mean death!

Too late, too late! It's too fast!

"Help me!" he screamed desperately as he retreated.

With just a touch, his divinity was stripped away. He couldn't withstand this attack! Nor could he dodge it!
I'll die, I'll die!
Not far away, the dragon, enraged, roared in retaliation. As one of only two overlords present, it and the old overlord could not afford to be harmed. Otherwise, they would all be doomed!
It angrily spewed out a corrupt dragon breath, which struck the drill precisely.

That is a corrupting poison imbued with divinity; those struck by it will watch their flesh and blood decay and fall away in an instant.

This can somewhat hinder the enemy's offensive, and may even force the enemy to retreat.

However, the drill paused only for a moment before piercing through the dragon's breath and accelerating its pursuit of the old overlord. A direct hit!
This terrified the dragon, which realized that its attacks and divinity were utterly ineffective in stopping the drill.

The Jiaolong also has 'dragon blood' and is also a member of the dragon race!

Or rather, all the extraordinary creatures within Wanlong Lake possess dragon blood! They are all within the range of the 'Dragon Slayer'!
Most of the damage they inflict on Li Yelai will be reduced by 50% by 'Dragon Killer'!

Sensing the oppressive presence of its natural enemy, the dragon decisively abandoned its teammates. Its massive body moved with extraordinary agility, instantly creating hundreds of meters of distance, attempting to escape the battlefield. Compared to the old overlord, it actually had another option: as a native extraordinary creature, if it wanted to hide, humans would have a very difficult time finding it.

However, a wisp of blue flame ignited.

Someone holding a three-pointed, double-edged sword stood in front of it, chuckling, "Alien race, overlord, very good!"

When he appeared before the followers of the Blissful Sect, an endless tide of malice and hatred surged forth from him.

"It's the Lord of Azure Flames!"

"The rebel of chaos!"

"Traitor to the High Heaven!"

Their malice and hatred amplified the power of Dawn to its peak at this moment!

Immediately, he swept his three-pointed double-edged sword horizontally!

The blue flames seemed to illuminate the night!
On the other side, the aged overlord was hit directly. After struggling to take a few steps forward, he collapsed to his knees.

His torso fell to the ground, and he saw his body pierced through.
'Ah, I seem to have made the wrong choice again. When exactly did it happen?' Filled with endless regret and remorse, he closed his eyes.

If I had cooperated with the Giant City authorities from the beginning to resist Chaos and worked with them to find a way to deal with the Heartless Fruit, would my fate have been different?

In the end, it was all for nothing.

Those who sit on the fence die from their choices.

Almost simultaneously, the dragon's mutilated body crashed down, its massive head filled with astonishment and resentment.

It never understood why it, a hegemon, could be instantly killed by a mere sixth sense in one move.

In reality, if it were a human or possessed the six senses, it wouldn't have been able to inflict this kind of damage.

This is the power of blessing!

It practically walked right into the line of fire, perfectly triggering all the blessings. Combined with the 'assistance' of the Elysian faction followers, Dawn condensed into a sufficiently powerful malice.

And with the simultaneous fall of the two overlords.

Within the illusory realm, a violent tremor erupted, seemingly mourning the fall of the two overlords. The starry sky of the illusory realm twisted, and blood rain fell.

"Ninth champion? How can there be two?"

"It's the Chosen One of Azure Flames!"

"Quickly, Demon General, summon the Chaos Avatar!"

"Quickly revoke his privileges and have the Echo Avatar finish him off!"

When the two overlords were killed in a short period of time, the will to resist of the Bliss faction was almost completely destroyed.

One champion is terrifying enough!

Now a second one has appeared, and there is another dangerous Chosen One of Azure Flames!
Even the overlord was wiped out in an instant, how can we possibly fight this?
However, the three of them had no intention of letting them go. Now, the only way was to wipe out the demons!

After the death of the overlord, no one in the entire branch could stop them!
On the other side, outside the battlefield of the first passage to Wanlong Lake.

The expressions of the wilderness rangers who were discussing the matter changed slightly, showing a mixture of shock and delight.

An official powerful figure noticed this and asked, "Everyone, what's wrong? Has the Lord of Azure Flames issued a divine decree?"

“No, our lord has never issued a divine decree; it is too far removed from our time,” Yunyue replied.

"But we sensed the presence of our companions."

"It seems that someone has appeared in Wanlong Lake."

"The Chosen One of Azure Flames?" (End of Chapter)
