Heroes' Prison

Chapter 158 Leaving, to Return Stronger

Heroes’ Prison has existed since the Era of the Ancient Gods, and within it were confined exceptional beings from generation upon generation. After death, their bodies were all collected into a morgue, accumulating together. These exceptional beings had incredibly strong bodies, and given the unusual area of Heroes’ Prison, they would not rot! Some materials from magical beasts might have already gone extinct in the outside world, but could still be found within the confines of Heroes’ Prison!

How powerful would external incarnations be if made from the materials of these strong beings? It’s estimated that no one from ancient times to today has ever undertaken such an enormous task! Although an incarnation only possessed 50% of Huang Yi’s strength, the intrinsic abilities of each material component on its body were not so limited, and just these myriad abilities alone were terrifying enough!

However, this matter couldn’t immediately be pursued. Although Huang Yi had access to the bodies of these strong beings, he found it difficult to process them. Their bodies were too powerful, and he needed to research a way to deal with them first.

"Alright, the scourge that has threatened Bai Long Lake for countless years has finally been lifted. Next, I will devote my full effort to helping your sister absorb the Holy Aura! Considering her constitution, it should only take a little over two months to fully absorb it!" the White Dragon King said with relief. The long-standing calamity of the Bai Long Clan had been resolved in its generation, and from then on, it would be eternally celebrated as a hero, becoming a role model for future generations.

"Then I shall trouble you with that!" Huang Yi also breathed a sigh of relief. The three-year contract he had signed with the White Dragon King had been dissolved ahead of time, and he would no longer have to carry this promise, instantly shedding a burden.

...

At this moment, on the small island of the Giant Tree Forest, Little White Cat, Little Dragon, and Little Wang, the three little creatures, were all staring intently at the small pond, their expressions somewhat puzzled. They had faintly felt the earth-shaking transformation that had just happened, but they weren’t sure what exactly was happening below, as it did not match the apocalyptic scene they had imagined.

The White Dragons that had already evacuated were still watching from a distance towards Bai Long Lake, their eyes filled with worry and reluctance.

"Return, all of you! I have put an end to the disaster!" At that moment, the White Dragon King’s vast and distant voice suddenly rang out.

All the White Dragons, upon hearing this, were startled, and then joyfully returned to Bai Long Lake.

Actually, when the White Dragon King said this, it had somewhat the implication of claiming credit. Huang Yi’s role had been decisive, but the White Dragon King made no mention of it, clearly aiming to craft a radiant image for itself. However, Huang Yi didn’t care about that. Such glory was hollow; securing real treasures was what mattered most. He had acquired many valuable items and was very satisfied.

"Meow~" Back at the surface of the lake, Huang Yi immediately felt a small creature bump into his head. The fuzzy little paws clung tightly to his neck—turns out it was the Little White Cat.

"Sister, now that Lucifer’s Legs have been thoroughly dealt with, you can fully absorb this Holy Aura. I will leave here first and come to pick you up after you awaken, which should only take a little over two months." Huang Yi couldn’t see the Little White Cat perching on top of his head, but he didn’t remove her, allowing her to stay there.

"Meow~" Little White Cat let out a reluctant cry, then turned her small body to Huang Yi’s field of vision, showing him her teary, wide eyes, looking pitiful and endearing.

Huang Yi rubbed Little White Cat with his chin, saying, "Life at Bai Long Lake has been too leisurely, and if this continues, it can erode the will to fight. There are many people I need to protect, and without formidable strength, I can’t protect them nor you. My temporary departure is for a stronger return."

"Meow~!" Little White Cat fixed her gaze on Huang Yi and finally nodded obediently.

"White Dragon King, I entrust my sister to you. In a little over two months, I will come back for her," Huang Yi turned his head and said to the White Dragon King standing to the side.

"No problem. Maybe in a little over two months, I might bring her to find you instead," the White Dragon King said.

"Well then, sister, I’m off! Goodbye!" Huang Yi spoke, kissed the Little White Cat on the head, and put her down.

Following that, he flapped his white wings and soared into the sky. His majestic Body of White Dragon seemed ready to break through the Heavenly Curtain’s blockade, fly across the sky, and pierce the firmament.

Little White Cat stood still, looking up with a dazed expression as she watched the figure flying higher and higher, almost as if his words were still echoing in her ears—

"My temporary absence is to return stronger..."

...

After leaving Bai Long Lake, Huang Yi touched down on the ground, unable to continue flying. Although he had evolved into a White Dragon and gained the capability of flight, it was only effective for short distances and not suited for long journeys.

He immediately switched to his Beast King form. Every evolution brought corresponding changes to his Beast King form.

After evolving into a Half-Beastman, his Beast King form resembled an ape, overall moving towards a more humanoid evolution, though at that time he still couldn’t use weapons. Hence, despite its strength, he did not like to use the Beast King form.

Now, after Huang Yi switched to his Beast King state, the form indeed underwent another change!

At this moment, he had fully evolved into a humanoid form, showing no signs of his beastly origins except for a pair of red eyes, still filled with the bloodthirsty aura of the Beast King. His fur had completely retreated, giving way to human skin that was incredibly firm, offering powerful protection. Following evolutions through the Half-Beastman and White Dragon stages, his defense had improved considerably. The claws on his limbs had evolved into flexible fingers and toes, each robust and full of strength—able to pierce a boulder as if it were tofu. However, the flames on his limbs persisted, now turned a yellow hue, making him look like a man of fire.

At this point, Huang Yi looked entirely human, the aura of the Beast King subdued, no longer as aggressive and dominant as before. If he were to extinguish the flames on his limbs, he could wander freely in human towns, and no one would pay him any particular attention.

Regarding his attributes, this new Beast King body had improved, achieving an approximate 10% increase in all attributes compared to his White Dragon form. The Beast King form was always his strongest, and now it could even wield weapons, which was a significant enhancement! His Beast King form would become Huang Yi’s primary form for future use.

However, his other forms still held their uses, namely the racial skills! Skills like Little White Cat’s "Aerial Acceleration", "Blink Assault", "Midair Change of Direction", and "Life Sacrifice" could only be utilized in the Little White Cat form, and were inaccessible in the Beast King state.

Similarly, the Half-Beastman racial skill "Tracking Scent", as well as the White Dragon Clan’s "Dragon’s Might" and flight capability, could not be used while in the Beast King state.

The Beast King form excelled in attributes, but when it came to various skills, he would have to switch between different forms. Therefore, in choosing future paths for evolution, he still aimed for a diversified approach, eventually shaping himself into an ultimate being with all sorts of abilities and omnipotence!

Today is my birthday, so I’m asking for some recommendation tickets! You get recommendation tickets just by registering an account, and they refresh daily!

This book will probably go live around Sunday, and I’m currently working hard to stockpile Chapters. Once live, I plan to reward everyone with a furious update schedule, initially aiming for a burst of 15,000 words right at the launch, increasing the Chapter length from the current 2,000 words to 3,000 words each.

But this is a daunting task, so for tomorrow and the days that follow, I will maintain a daily update of 6,000 words, doubling that figure for an explosive release on the launch day.

Thanks everyone! I hope that after the book goes live, you’ll still come by daily, cast a few recommendation votes, and leave a review.
