Chapter 1490: It's You Who Owe Me an Explanation! (2)

Therefore, although both sides are on edge, and the atmosphere is extremely tense, a full-blown conflict has not yet erupted.

Compared to the shock and confusion of the Forbidden Zone forces and the walkers, the Demon Generals of the Chaos Faction were internally sneering, already prepared for war at any moment.

Their core mission of descending to this place was to assist Lord Di Yun in eliminating all enemies.

Now, it is an unexpected delight that Lord Di Yun has already taken the lead in the simulated universe, wiping out several Overlord level experts from the other side, greatly reducing the pressure of their subsequent actions!

Demand an explanation? It’s your honor to die at the hands of Lord Di Yun!

At this moment, as both sides were unwilling to yield, a powerful space distortion fluctuation appeared on a certain mountain peak within the Chaos Defense Line.

‘They’ve appeared!’

Everyone’s attention was diverted; currently only Di Yun and the champion remained in the simulated universe. The two might even appear together.

Thus, a series of intense perception power waves, accompanied by divine fluctuations, rapidly spread, attempting to investigate the changes atop that mountain peak.

And the quickest to react is always the Chaos side!

Over a dozen Demon Generals reacted almost instantly as the anomaly occurred.

The ancient Chaos Ritual was immediately activated, layered with twisted light curtains and blasphemous runes, forming an interference barrier. The massive Chaos Legion realigned its formation with astonishing efficiency, as if the most precise killing machine was instantly activated.

They knew well that the one appearing on the mountain peak must be Lord Di Yun.

Lord Di Yun is the Human Champion!

Therefore, they need not judge, the only order was to protect at all costs!

Countless barrages containing destructive energy, corrosive evil energy waves, and reality-twisting spiritual storms poured out like a tide of death against all Forbidden Zone strongmen or legions attempting to approach recklessly!

Even though their perception was severely obstructed by the Chaos Ritual Force Field, the Forbidden Zone strongmen and Heavenly Destiny walkers could still clearly “see” the gigantic miracle that appeared out of nowhere atop the mountain peak!

Combining the Chaos Faction’s near-instinctual, unusually swift protective response.

The identity of the figure appearing was evident!

“Di Yun!” A Mirror Domain Overlord let out a heart-wrenching roar, his voice filled with overwhelming hatred due to betrayal: “You damned traitor!”

“Killing my compatriots, abandoning pacts! You deserve a thousand deaths!”

“Di Yun, you must give us an explanation today! Otherwise, it’s a matter of life and death!”

Extreme malice and killing intent erupted like a tangible force from the legions of the two major Forbidden Zones! Their losses were indeed too severe!

Yin Ke, from one of the oldest and most powerful families within the Mirror Domain, was not only a mighty Overlord but also one of the few scholars proficient in the core technology of Mirror Space, holding a prestigious status!

As for the losses of the Throat of Gui Xu, they were beyond measure!

The fallen female Merfolk was the treasured jewel of a powerful clan leader.

And Sea Nether… he was one of the Forbidden Army Commanders of the Throat of Gui Xu, akin to the Forbidden Zone version of Han Xin!

Ultimately, these significant figures were all killed by Di Yun in the simulated universe!

Not even a complete corpse was left behind!

To die at the hands of allies, to die amidst betrayal!

As Forbidden Zone beings, they could certainly return after countless years, but the price and time required would be immense.

With such deep-seated hatred, how could the Mirror Domain and Throat of Gui Xu not be furious? How could they not go mad?

To die at the hands of the Champion meant they were simply outmatched, but to die at the hands of an ally, what does that mean?

Meanwhile, the experts of the Sea of Time watched the dispute with cold eyes from the sidelines.

Their target of hatred was clear and singular, only the Human Champion. As for the grievances between Di Yun and other Forbidden Zones, they couldn’t care less, even feeling a subtle satisfaction deep within.

Zel had fallen, Zefi was seriously injured, and the Sea of Time suffered heavy losses. Now seeing other factions similarly take a major hit, they felt a darkly satisfying sense of “we’re all doomed together.”

But as the gazes of the Forbidden Zone strongmen swept across the enormous miracle that appeared out of nowhere at the center of the Chaos Legion’s base, everyone’s expressions turned peculiar.

‘Di Yun… he actually moved a miracle directly out of the simulated universe? How did he bring it out?’

‘Did he achieve the goal of the Lin Cang Civilization’s heritage and received a reward?’

‘Damn! Could it be that the biggest winner this time is instead the Chaos Faction?’

‘Miracle technology… if it can be analyzed and mastered…’

The Heavenly Destiny walkers were closely observing as well, but they were more focused on the final outcome within the simulated universe.

When will the Champion appear after all? Or has he quietly escaped? Or… has he been slain by Di Yun? Even though they deemed this nearly impossible.

However, the one to first respond to their guessing and waiting was not the appearance of any figure, but the sudden tremor from the ground beneath them…

Rumble!

The terrifying tremor caused the faces of all strongmen to change drastically. They could clearly sense that an indescribable massive force was colliding and erupting violently in the distance, with the impact even shaking this opportunity-filled land protected by special laws!

Soon after, in horror, they saw the sea surface far away begin to reverse irrationally…

“What’s going on?!”

“The Land of Opportunity is isolated from the Physical World, how could an earthquake occur? Even causing a tsunami?!”

In the next instant, all their expressions completely froze.

The Forbidden Zone strongmen instantly erupted with protective divinity, while the Heavenly Destiny walkers maintaining the King Slayer Array in the distance were also struck with horror!

Because with the advent of this catastrophe, a spiritual energy fluctuation they were exceedingly familiar with and dread surged and soared madly!

That is… the Champion’s spiritual energy fluctuation!

And the origin position where the fluctuation emanated from…

The gazes of the Forbidden Zone strongmen and walkers shot straight towards the distant mountain peak belonging to the Chaos Legion’s base, their expressions instantly… utterly twisted!

The fluctuation was unmistakably emanating from where Di Yun was located!

Meanwhile, at the moment of leaving the simulated universe and returning to reality, Li Yelai quickly perceived the environment he was in and the tense situation around him.

“Tsk, I originally wanted to deceive them one more time using Di Yun’s identity… directly claiming the Champion has been beheaded by me.” He lamented in his heart: “Seems the commotion of leaving the simulated universe was still too great. Moreover, the Forbidden Zone guys brought back information, left some alive after all…”

So be it…

“Partner.” He quietly whispered to the Little Mad King beside him: “Next, you need to hide; it’s going to be extremely chaotic later. Remember what I told you before? Protect yourself, don’t let anyone besides me find you out.”

Meanwhile, he quickly checked over the Substitute Injury Amber Arm Guard on Little Mad King’s arm, as long as she wore it, any damage she suffered would be partially shared by Li Yelai.

He also stuffed a handful of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers into her hand for emergency use.

Although confusion lingered in Little Mad King’s eyes, she still nodded obediently. Immediately, the instinct of an Assassin Master allowed her to flicker her form and silently blend into her surroundings like merging with the light, making her presence nearly impossible to detect.

Once Little Mad King was well-hidden, Li Yelai took out the Taboo Item, the Lucky Wheel (Catastrophe Summoner).

Activating Xiang Yu’s Face, he unhesitatingly deflected the pointer on the roulette.

Under the influence of the Curse of Misfortune, the pointer unsurprisingly… landed on the catastrophe region with only a one in ten thousand chance!

Conditions, met!

The prerequisite for consuming the Magic Potion ‘Tribulation and Misfortune’ is during the catastrophe!

Now, as the catastrophe unfolds, it is the moment… when the Overlord shall emerge!

He unhesitatingly raised that bottle of crimson gold magic potion, downing it in one gulp.

The potion coursed down his throat like a living creature, scorching and struggling, scraping against his throat and esophagus, bringing an eerie tremor.

Li Yelai slowly exhaled a breath of scorching air, he felt his life level rising, he was stepping into a higher realm.

He was ascending toward divinity!

Exalted and transcendent, transforming and soaring to immortality….

This required time, thus he would recreate Captain Yang Chen’s grand feat!

Using himself as the furnace, with the enemies as fire!

Forge himself, to ascend to an Overlord!

“Explanation?” Li Yelai scoffed softly, then roared: “It’s you… who should give me an explanation!”

“What you are facing, is the Human Champion!”
