Netherworld Retrograde

The figure resembling a human hero suddenly stepped out from the space distortion, slicing horizontally with a long knife in hand.

In that instant, a mysterious force, seemingly divine, erupted.

Several powerful merfolk who were opening the door were bypassed without a single reaction.

Among them, a Sixth Sense merfolk woman instinctively raised the spiritual ability equipment in her hand, a coral-like shield.

However, the slash was too fast, so fast that they only saw a flash before their eyes. When they turned to see the attack target, they twisted their necks instead.

The merfolk woman holding the shield was cut in half along with the shield.

"Retreat!" Hai Hui roared, swinging his trident horizontally.

He had never anticipated such circumstances, that within a relic sealed for hundreds, maybe even more years, a powerful entity would suddenly leap forth. But this was the Snake-man's treasure vault, how did this human get inside?

Moreover, was that... the power of Chaos?

"Emperor's Fall! Is this one of your Chaos deeds?" Hai Hui fumed.

"My master is generous, if you are brave enough, I can request a blessing for you!"

Li Ye's expression subtly shifted. Indeed, he felt the blessing power from the Chaos Gods, especially the Blood God.

Blood God Chosen One? Even if not, there must be some strong blessed object!

Meanwhile, Li Ye lowered his long spear and retreated, protecting the merfolk at his front.

That figure collided head-on with Hai Hui, and in the divine collision, the figure paused.

Hai Hui's eyes brightened; he sensed he could suppress this figure and noticed the figure's illusory nature. This was a projection, lingering on some instrument! Though it had divinity, its combat power was rapidly waning.

"A divine waste, fight me!" Hai Hui shouted. The skies cleared, rain stopped, and he felt capable once more!

However, when the figure realized it could not instantly kill Hai Hui, it decisively changed direction.

In a flash, it swept its long knife, directly attacking the merfolk troops and the Chaos Army.

In that moment, flesh flew everywhere as if chopping vegetables. Ten merfolk, bloodsuckers, Plague Knights were instantly slaughtered.

The human hero seemed indifferent to the target's strength, focusing instead on slaughtering as many units as possible.

This enraged Hai Hui because this relic was opened by the merfolk, where personnel gathered densely at the entrance.

Therefore, casualties were the greatest!

"Die!" He roared, and along with many powerful merfolk, besieged the 'human hero'.

But they need not encircle him; after killing over ten enemies, the human hero's projection began to shatter. He seemed to emit a silent roar, still wanting more slaughter!

His gaze turned to Li Ye, revealing an intent of ferocity and regret, seemingly recognizing Li Ye as Chaos Chosen, yet lacking divinity. Despite the risk, he charged at Li Ye, wanted to slash Li Ye even with knife upon him.

However, eventually exhausted of all vitality, his body exploded and dispersed within five meters of Li Ye, leaving only a long knife to fall to the ground.

It was this severely worn knife that contained Chaos aura, clearly blessed by the Blood God.

But strangely, as Blood God Chosen, Li Ye felt an odd sense of mismatched with this broken knife.

It was certainly blessed by the Blood God, but seemed different from the blessing Li Ye received, missing something...

A level? Grade? Or something else?

Li Ye found it difficult to discern its peculiarities, only sensing a subtle, strange mismatch.

Hai Hui snorted coldly, raising a hand to disperse the last remnants of the hero: "In life, he was quite the character, but it's merely remnants of battle intent daring to target me?"

"The handiwork of humanity in the Land of Opportunity?" Hai Hui inquired of Li Ye: "Did human civilization discover the Snake-man tomb first and leave a contingency plan?"

"How should I know?" Li Ye replied: "But at least this knife is truly a blessed item from my master."

"Chaos has extended its reach into the Land of Opportunity?" Hai Hui's face darkened, disregarding the casualties.

If Chaos had already involved itself with the Land of Opportunity, then the civilization might have already been corrupted, hindering further exploration significantly.

"My master's blessings nourish the entire Void Realm." Li Ye responded calmly: "My master, the Blood God, is famously generous; why would you be surprised? Even the first Champion was our Divine Chosen Champion, yet you never claimed the Champion was orchestrated by us."

Hai Hui was momentarily speechless; indeed, the Blood God was generous... if you were brave enough, you might receive blessings. But there's a high chance that those blessed end up twisted and corrupted.

"As for a contingency plan, I find it unlikely. If truly aiming to stop the Snake-man civilization's resurgence, it's easier to destroy the entire tomb than leave a trace of divinity." Li Ye remarked: "Perhaps an accident related to some Snake-man treasure vault."

"But this accident is too excessive... even though it's lingering bloodlust and divine projection, it had merits... Sixth Sense must perish." Hai Hui glanced at Li Ye: "You haven't reached Overlord; you may not understand."

"Heh, who said the lord hasn't ascended?" Poison Heart Demon General sneered.

"Indeed, the lord has celestial poise, dragon-phoenix charisma. Among partners, not lacking Overlords!" Blood God Demon General chimed in.

Hai Hui was taken aback, his expression peculiar.

"Silence! He meant entering, as in reaching!" Li Ye snapped: "I've slain Overlords, that's enough..."
