Chapter 1555: Chapter 1095: Reward and Ambush (3K)

"Die, you will!" Under the affectionate blessing of the Supreme King, Li Changhe disappeared in a flash of white light.

Jianmu looked puzzled at the sight.

After all, Li Ba’s strength was there for all to see; how could he possibly be waiting to die? From a certain point of view, he was already immortal. Even demigods didn’t have his longevity!

Yet the Supreme King said no more, whether it was about his ascension to immortality, or about Li Changhe, undefeated below any demigod.

In such a situation, it seemed there were no other choices but to wait for death.

There had been rumors that the Supreme King feared his wife, as did the Tian Ce General. The Supreme King planned to clarify this—together, that this... was not a rumor...

Even becoming a Supreme King who had ascended to immortality, he would still be afraid.

However, in the next second, the Supreme King changed, and Jianmu trembled as well.

Because at the moment Li Changhe and the other players left, an extremely horrifying presence flashed through the void, startling all the divinities in the entire void.

"What is that?" The Supreme King’s face changed abruptly, "A True God? No, wrong..."

Jianmu replied, "That is... above a True God."

"A God King?"

"No, a God King is just a higher level True God. This is something above even that... a Forbidden Divinity!"

...

On the other side, feeling the long-lost sensation of weightlessness and the bright white light ahead, once the glow faded, he would return to the main world.

Li Changhe, however, silently looked at his quest settlement.

The human players had made great gains this time.

The planetary fortress and Lincang No. 9, though left behind in the Netherworld’s ninety-nine cities,

Lincang No. 9 had modified the heads of Emperor Biluo and Canglong King to create two slightly less powerful subsidiary entities, that is, two brand-new advanced AI intelligences.

And it had backed up the technology it controlled for humans, brought back to the main world by human players.

With the help of these two subsidiary entities, human technology would undergo a qualitative leap. Perhaps they could even create a mechanical titan legion and break through the encircled world!

At the same time, after being exiled, the human powerhouses instead obtained the technology of Annihilation that had exiled them.

If they could make a breakthrough, it might be possible to prevent Annihilation from exiling them again. It’s equivalent to paralyzing the opponent’s major weapon.

Both the improved magical skills of the Supreme King and the inheritance of the Heavenly Court Remnant Clan given to the human players were received by Yang Dong and the others.

With Great Wall’s disposition, the day of all humans becoming extraordinary wasn’t far off. Human power would be raised once more.

But Li Changhe remained weighed down by worry—he... was indeed waiting to die.

Even if Yun Ting and Old Lead had their concealments and Chen Yu acted as if nothing had happened at all, even going so far as to erase some of Li Changhe’s memory.

But Chen Yu physically recovered, and for some unknown reason, his energy attribute surged.

This led Li Changhe to guess what had happened at that time...

Which left him at a loss, panic-stricken, and guilty.

Utterly unsure of how to face the two of them.

In the end, he had no choice but to silently opt for death.

These were Li Changhe’s rewards from this mission.

He had risen a level and gained a large amount of materials.

Leaving aside the legendary treasures for the moment, just the Supreme King’s abilities list occupied the entire settlement panel.

This guy actually had nearly three thousand different magical skills and Immortal Skills?

Li Changhe was astounded and turned his gaze to the Cloud Soaring Technique at number 2.

If he learned this, could he fully master the ability to fly?

Yun Ting was astounded; though she couldn’t see the panel, she understood from Li Changhe’s thoughts that it was possible to learn abilities of the Supreme King.

And the Supreme King’s abilities, so many, so strong.

"Which magic do you want? The Faceless Method, or transforming into the Heavenly Way, or One Vital Energy Transforms into Pure Ones? Aren’t they all worth learning?" Yun Ting yelled in Li Changhe’s mind, "Forget about flying already! Are you really planning to give up those kickass skills for the sake of flying?"

The Faceless Method could mimic thousands of forms and even mooch off the powers of Evil Gods.

Transforming into the Heavenly Way was almost becoming a consciousness of the world itself – unmatched even among demigods.

And that One Vital Energy Transforms into Pure Ones, that top-tier immortal skill, surely it’s way cooler than mere flying?

"Easy for you to say, you don’t know this pain..." Li Changhe retorted with a complaint, "Once I gain the ability to fly, I will have no more regrets. I don’t want to die without ever having flown..."

Not being able to fly was indeed a thorn in his side...

He used to mock the Supreme King for not even knowing how to cook or having worked a day in his life, pretending to be Li Changhe.

And the Supreme King would retort, saying, "You can’t even fly, and you dare call yourself Li Changhe?" and the like.

That left Li Changhe speechless; after all, he truly couldn’t fly!

However, Yun Ting’s words also made Li Changhe vaguely sense that something was amiss.

Wasn’t this teleportation taking unusually long?

Li Changhe looked around; beyond the white light where he was, numerous pillars of light flickered.

Those were the main world’s human players participating in this task. They would be teleported back to the main world together.

During this period, some powerhouses could forcefully break through the teleportation, staying in the void.

However, few would do so. A certain Devil King was rumored to have used their demigod powers to break through the Evolution Game’s teleport and has been missing since.

Now, this teleportation seemed rather prolonged. How many seconds had passed already?

In the very next moment, a cold light stood on end all over Li Changhe’s body. The Will of Desperation had activated!

"Li!"

"General!"

"Be careful!"

In the void, the divine beings among the human players roared in fear and fury, and Li Changhe instantly turned around.

He saw a massive hand reaching out from a swiftly passing gap in the void – actually reaching for him!

What was that? To catch up to the speed of the Evolution Game’s teleport?

A True God? No, it was an existence even more terrifying than a True God!

A Forbidden Divinity!

A powerhouse on the level of a Chaotic Evil God!

And such an entity was intervening in the Evolution Game’s teleport?

The Evolution Game seemed to have taken offense, as countless chains sprang out of nowhere, twining around the giant hand. Moreover, a galaxy-sized blade cleaved through the void, severing the arm straight off.

The severed hand began to crumble, its flesh indistinct. Meanwhile, from the deep void, the anguished wails of countless creatures rang out.

Even as a Forbidden Divinity, it faced the punishment of the Evolution Game. The hundreds of worlds it owned were destroyed by the Evolution Game in an instant.

But that shattered limb was still hurtling towards Li Changhe.

What remained of the once-fleshy fist clenched, aiming a punch at Li Changhe!

In that moment, Li Changhe could clearly feel the approach of death.

Even hindered by the Evolution Game, this incomplete punch from the Forbidden Divinity was sure enough to obliterate every molecule of Li Changhe!

He was going to die! If this punch landed, he would absolutely die!

A sense of lethal crisis he hadn’t felt since drinking the Immortal Brew returned. Since then, he’d had trouble sensing such danger.

Even when he faced a True God, Li Changhe might have been at a disadvantage, but he could still escape. So, he never felt like this.

He had not expected to be ambushed on his way back to the main world.

Who was it? Annihilation?

Thinking the price he paid was too high, with three demigods dead and two True Gods fate unknown. Many worlds faced near destruction as a price.

So, was he willing to pay an even higher price in a final push to kill Li Changhe?

Mobilizing a Forbidden Divinity for this?

"You... damn it!" Li Changhe naturally wouldn’t just surrender!

Indeed, he was waiting for death, but he didn’t intend to die at the hands of this alien race – dying by her hands was deserved, but what right did this demon have to get involved?

Thus, he resolutely chose the most suitable immortal skill from the Supreme King’s array and used it directly.

Immortal Skill · One Vital Energy Transforms into Pure Ones!

In an instant, Li Changhe divided into three.

Then, the grand figures of three demigods emerged in the void.

Mad Devil brandished six arms, unleashing a God-Killing Strike!

Hero’s Watch drew the bow fully, and the Heavenly Dragon Fell!

Crying Hero held the God Sin, creating a Devouring God Black Hole!

With the ability of One Vital Energy Transforms into Pure Ones, Li Changhe could now simultaneously use three demigod forms. He had become truly unmatchable as a demigod, and even a True God could contend!

Yet, against that crumbling fist, the three colossal demigod forms seemed so insignificant.

In the blink of an eye, the pillar of light vanished.

The three demigod forms thunderously dissipated.

The Devouring God Black Hole was cracked wide open, and Li Changhe’s consciousness began to blur.

Just one punch, and Li Changhe’s three demigod forms were reduced to a single, damaged head.

The rest of his body had been obliterated in an instant. Yet, as long as he returned to the main world, he could immediately recover – even if only a head remained.

The shattered hand was now only a single finger bone.

But it still pressed down towards the last remnant of Li Changhe’s head.

It sought to obliterate him completely! To deny Li Changhe any chance of return to the main world.

In fact, when Li Changhe struck back, the light around him had already faded. He could no longer be teleported back to the main world.

However, a golden arrow shot out from the void, flew past Li Changhe’s head, latched onto Yun Ting’s thrown hair and carried Li Changhe’s head deeper into the void.

"No way, Li Ba Excellency, have I not seen you for only a few months..." the Sun Shooting Golden Arrow exclaimed in surprise, "and you’ve turned into this mess?"

That was the last voice Li Changhe heard before losing consciousness.

(The Netherworld’s Ninety-Nine Cities task has ended, the next volume, Wandering the Void, begins.)

(I debated all night yesterday and couldn’t come up with any solution. By putting it on hold I’m just being irresponsible, Li’s a jerk. If the girl accepts it, it collapses her character. If she doesn’t accept Li’s a jerk looking for a side chick. So, I had to do it this way. I really can’t please everyone... I don’t have that capability, my bad.)
