Netherworld Retrograde

At the forefront of the team, Li Ye and Yang Chen simultaneously encountered the assault from the Blowing Lamp Ghost.

If it were a Spiritual Ability User of the Third or Fourth Awakening, they might still fall for it. They might even have to turn their back to it, attempting to elbow it to death while facing away.

But Li Ye, as a Sixth-sense Great Spiritual Ability User, bears two kinds of Mythical Mimicry; among them, the Qilin is the nemesis of all evil spirits and the natural enemy of all Returning Souls!

And as for Captain Yang Chen, not to mention his Undying Golden Body and Immune to All Techniques.

Just that terrifying blood energy alone should be enough to instill fear in the Returning Souls.

If health bars were displayed, Yang Chen's health bar should have stabbed through from three miles away.

These two Returning Souls actually want to guard against a Champion all by themselves.

Li Ye and Yang Chen were both surprised and instinctively became vigilant.

So daring? Could there be some hidden tactics or unrecognized rules?

No wonder they dare to provoke Team One, can't be underestimated!

Thus, in the next moment, the Champion Cloak whirled wildly, with violent Blood Evil Energy surging through the entire ghost realm.

"Be alert, Heavenly Soldiers clearing the path, leave no one behind!"

"Yes!"

Instantly, a large number of golden beans scattered on the ground, and numerous Imitative Heavenly Soldiers appeared.

At that moment, all the Returning Souls in the manor were startled.

Countless Yin Soldiers surged out of the manor, dark energy raging as they launched a charge directly at the humans.

Not understanding what happened, a Returning Soul exclaimed in bewilderment: "Deploy the Yin Soldiers? Is this prey somewhat challenging?"

And some Returning Souls almost had their forms collapse, shrieking: "Challenging? How many lives do you have?"

"Yu Huo! What did you do?"

"Run, quick! It's Champion Team One!"

The voices carried resentment, bewilderment, and fear...

These Returning Souls naturally recognized that swaying cloak.

That is the human Champion!

To bring the human Champion into the ghost realm as the main act of a banquet?

Even pulling two at once?

But why didn't I sense them, didn't detect them?

Is Duke Yu Huo planning to team up with humans to entrap us?

The Returning Souls have no time to ponder.

Because, the sounds of slaughter and shrieking almost sounded simultaneously.

Viewing humans as playthings and prey, enjoying the desolation and despair of humans, the Returning Souls.

At this moment, they also erupted into their own howls and screams.

Imitative Heavenly Soldiers transformed into legions, unleashing blades and axes, launching volley shots with Great Bows. They penetrated the Yin Soldier Legion head-on, shattering the manor's ornate walls, and dazzling flames ignited the eerie garden and lawn. Numerous Yin Soldiers and Generals wailed and shrieked in the flames.

In mid-air, the Dark Gold Material, like a living fluid, ignored physical laws, condensing into Dark Gold Battle Spears that emanated fear and power.

Ripping through the air with a whistle, they descended, unleashing a bombardment upon the entire manor!

Several Yin Soldiers units were shattered by the Dark Gold Battle Spears before even engaging the enemy.

Meanwhile, several Champion squads set foot into the manor, treading upon the burning wreckage of the manor and the Returning Souls' debris, cutting through with surgical precision! Bringing destruction to the Returning Souls!

Exquisite carvings turned to powder, a radiant crystal chandelier exploded into scorching glass rain, and the dazzling dome fresco was instantly torn apart by shockwaves.

A moment before, they were in the opulent manor, discussing how to toy with humans, luring humans to challenge them, looking forward to savoring the nectar formed from the mortals' strong obsessions upon dying.

And the next moment, ultimate violence descended, turning the elevated Returning Souls into twisted remnants. The Yin Soldier Legion was directly blown apart, and numerous of the Dead never even discerned the enemy before being slaughtered and eradicated.

...

Deep within the manor, the Returning Noblemen gazed at Yu Huo in disbelief.

"You plan to confront the Champion? And want to drag us down with you?" The Marquis in Bone Armor leaked black blood from his blood-red eye sockets.

"Yu Huo! Have you lost your mind?" another Marquis in a human-faced robe, with a gaunt figure, also roared in anger, "You've been deceived, O King!"

"No, it's not right!" Sitting at the head seat, clad in a classical Han robe, Duke Yu Huo also froze.

He didn't understand, couldn't comprehend.

He was hosting a banquet, inviting noblemen to discuss important matters.

Letting the subordinate minor nobles casually catch some humans for entertainment. This was the custom of the banquet, also offering the low-level Returning Souls a chance for a feast.

But how... did it come to catching the heads of Champion Team One?

Without his permission, humans from outside shouldn't be able to enter his ghost realm at all.

So, these humans were indeed let in by his subordinates.

This is his ghost realm, but not a battlefield or military camp he constructed, it is his home base. Who would directly drag enemies into their own home base?

Those minor nobles selecting prey, did they all lack vision?

Damn it, a conspiracy!

This must be a conspiracy!

Someone deceived his and all Returning Souls' perception, drawing the Champions into the ghost realm!

Otherwise, he should have detected ahead of time and sent the humans out of the ghost realm early. How come human Champions suddenly appeared outside the manor?

Who is it? Who is guiding me to clash with the human Champions?

Better hope, don't let me find you!

While Duke Yu Huo was quickly thinking, he issued an order: "Do not confront Champions head-on, wait for my Shadow Soldier Marshal to arrive... repelling them is worth some sacrifice..."

Even as a Returning Duke, he doesn't want to go head-to-head against Champion Team One.

To eliminate this misunderstanding, he is willing to make some sacrifices.

But before his words could fall, a sharp Longsword silently stabbed through, piercing their chests before the two Returning Marquis could react.
