Heroes' Prison

Chapter 1764 - 1684: A Trace of Crystallization of the Divine King

Just now, when he sliced the Barbarian God on the bed in half, he realized something was wrong.

Because those Void Gods of the Barbarian God cult did not die along with it.

The clone and the original of the Barbarian God were cut off from the rules of Heaven Realm and Mortal Realm, requiring the consumption of Blue Elves to maintain their sanity. These Void Gods could only sign a Master-Servant Contract with his clone. If the clone died, these Void Gods would die as well.

But just now, those Void Gods did not die along with it, indicating the Barbarian God’s clone was still alive.

In fact, it was indeed so; for insurance, the Barbarian God had earlier divided out a subsidiary clone, giving him two lives.

However, the consequence of this was that both his clones were very weak. If Huang Yi used a large-scale attack ability, both clones might be killed instantly.

The one killed on the bed was his newly split subsidiary clone, while the one attempting to escape was his real clone.

However, this clone’s power was already extremely weak compared to its original strength, only at the Void God level, which was the minimum requirement for returning to the Heaven Realm.

Upon rushing outside, a black-and-white aura emanated from the Barbarian God’s body!

This aura, supreme above all, twisted the void upon its appearance, causing the moonlight to refract.

It seemed like the center of this black-and-white aura was a microcosm, isolated from the outside world, deeply mysterious.

This clone of the Barbarian God was not strong, but the black-and-white aura disturbed the space, making it difficult for even a strong figure like Huang Yi to approach.

It was precisely the trace of Divine King’s Crystal that the Barbarian God clone had absorbed.

Even just a trace of Divine King’s Crystal was enough to produce an extraordinary effect!

In merely a moment, the Barbarian God clone soared into the sky with that black-and-white aura.

"Godslayer, I didn’t expect I had this trick left! You’ve forced me to the Heaven Realm, disrupted my plans for countless years; I will repay you well. You will soon know what despair is!" the Barbarian God looked down at Huang Yi, saying sinisterly.

His figure became increasingly illusory, seeming to forcibly return to Heaven Realm and attempt merging with his original.

Just as he was about to disappear into the sky, suddenly, his body trembled violently, flailing as if gone mad.

His skin wriggled fiercely, his complexion constantly changing, his skin bulging outward as though a force within him was madly disturbing, wanting to break out.

Even the black-and-white aura on him became disordered, unable to reconvene around him.

"What... what is this?" the Barbarian God clone struggled to utter a few words, struggling intensely.

"This is despair." Huang Yi’s voice suddenly rang out from in front of him, wielding the Wrath of the Godslayer, slashing over.

The Barbarian God stared fiercely at the axe, desperately trying to evade, but the force within him severely hindered him, making movement impossible.

In his eyes, there was intense despair.

This was a taste he originally wanted Huang Yi to experience, but he ended up tasting it himself.

"Thud!" In the next instant, his vision rolled, seeing his headless body in the distance, spraying vast Essence of Life, then knowing no more.

The Barbarian God clone was dead!

At the moment he thought he’d escape, he was killed by Huang Yi.

"Chirp~" At the same time, a liberating cry came from the giant Phoenix Tree afar, transmitted across the land, but stopped abruptly.

She died alongside the Barbarian God clone!

Simultaneously, countless servants who signed contracts with the Barbarian God clone also died at this moment.

In numerous temples of the Barbarian God cult in the First World, high-level leaders meditating before the Barbarian God statues, archbishops preaching to countless believers, suddenly died, leaving only terrified disciples.

Those ordinary believers, having little value, did not sign contracts with the Barbarian God clone, thus survived instead.

In an instant, the entire world underwent drastic changes overnight, countless people’s faith collapsing with a bang.

This Guardian God who had protected the First World for several eras was killed today.

At this moment, the Barbarian God’s corpse suddenly squirmed, growing a head at the neck wound, respectfully bowing to Huang Yi, saying, "Greetings, Master."

This was actually the Barbarian God Simulacrum!

Previously, Huang Yi had already transformed the Barbarian God Simulacrum into the guise of a Blue Elf, devoured by the Barbarian God clone, lurking within.

Just now, Huang Yi used this trick, letting the Barbarian God Simulacrum suddenly exert force, pulling the Barbarian God clone back, preventing his reach to the Heaven Realm.

Now, the Barbarian God was Huang Yi’s Barbarian God Simulacrum, occupying the Barbarian God clone’s body.

"Very good! Absorb the Essence of Life from that head!" Huang Yi said.

The Barbarian God Simulacrum immediately complied, swiftly picking up the Barbarian God’s head, forcibly inhaling.

In an instant, the Barbarian God’s head transformed into a surge of red energy, which he absorbed into his body.

After obtaining the true essence of the Barbarian God’s life, he became increasingly like the Barbarian God, indistinguishable in both aura and presence.

"Show me that black and white aura!" Huang Yi reached out his hand, having just glimpsed the black and white aura, which felt supreme—a treasure so exalted that even someone of his level found it difficult to approach.

The Barbarian God Simulacrum immediately extended his hand, his five fingers forming a claw, gathering a mass of black and white aura in his palm. It resembled a miniaturized galaxy, with its center a minuscule crystal, like a pinpoint of light.

Huang Yi received the mass of black and white aura.

In an instant, his Nephilim bloodline began to boil, straining to absorb this mass of black and white aura.

"What is this?" Huang Yi resisted the urge to absorb it, asking curiously.

"This is a wisp of the God King Crystal." The Barbarian God Simulacrum answered with reverence, having lurked within the Barbarian God’s clone for a long time, knowing many of its secrets.

"What? This is the God King Crystal?" Huang Yi was astonished, staring dumbfoundedly at the black and white aura in his palm.

The God King Crystal, also known as the Divine King’s Crystal, is the legendary first treasure, only existing in myths.

The Seven Archdemons have delayed their ascension to the Heaven Realm countless times, invading the Second World repeatedly, all to find this artifact.

And now, he held a tiny bit of the God King Crystal in his hand—a genuine sliver, not a replica.

"Yes! The aura of the God King Crystal is mixed within the energy transmitted from the Second World. Over countless years, the Barbarian God’s clone has been diligently collecting it. However, the content is sparse, occasionally absorbing a bit by chance, sometimes going long periods without anything, relying purely on luck. After countless years, he has only accumulated this much."

"Was this transmitted by the Giant Formation?" Huang Yi nodded thoughtfully. Previously, the Demon Clan believed the God King Crystal was in the Second World, yet after so many years, no one discovered its location.

But in the future, the aura of the God King Crystal would not flow into the First World. He had recently reversed the Giant Formation, so the aura would remain in the Second World.

Throughout the Second World’s history, countless strong individuals were born, including two-digit God Sealers, but none found the God King Crystal.

It’s certain that the God King Crystal is indeed in the Second World, yet despite all efforts, it remains undiscovered.

Thus, the King of Hell finally employed a foolish method—directly refining the Second World. As impurities are removed, the last remaining item must be the God King Crystal.

"Since it’s the God King Crystal, it can definitely be absorbed!" Huang Yi said, no longer restraining himself, allowing his Nephilim bloodline to absorb the wisp of the God King Crystal.

Soon, the mass of black and white galaxy merged into his skin, coursing through his blood into his limbs and body, fully absorbed.

The absorption process was exceptionally smooth, faster than when he absorbed broken divinities, racial fusion serums, or lunar essences.

It seemed that the God King Crystal and the Nephilim bloodline were a natural pair, originally meant to be together.

The Nephilim bloodline surpassed the god and demon lineage, and historically, only the God King surpassed all gods and demons.

From this perspective, the God King Crystal and Nephilim bloodline truly matched. Comparatively, the Barbarian God’s Son of God bloodline fell short.

Absorbing this sliver of God King Crystal didn’t result in significant feelings, but his attributes grew considerably, his power advancing to another level.

Previously, his strength was on par with the Creator Ancestral Spirits, but at this moment, his power subtly surpassed all Creator Ancestral Spirits except Kado, leaving only the King of Hell and Kado above him in the Mortal Realm.

However, the main benefit of the God King Crystal isn’t in power but in the realm beyond power—laws.

Power increase alone was minor and irrelevant.

Laws are the God King Crystal’s true focus.

Against the Four Supreme Gods, mere strength holds little usefulness. The Four Supreme Gods are supreme because they wield the four supreme laws.

Even the greatest power pales before laws. For instance, a level 1 novice player who possesses almost no strength could still survive against the King of Hell as long as Huang Yi is present, because Huang Yi controls the Rule of Death, negating player death.

Next, they returned to the enormous Phoenix Tree.

The Fire Phoenix had transformed into a giant egg, floating atop the Phoenix Tree’s canopy, ablaze with multicolored flames, undergoing Nirvana Rebirth.

The Little Dragon had already flown over, circling the enormous egg, constantly guarding her.

"Boss, you killed that Barbarian God’s clone?" The Little Dragon excitedly asked.

"Yes, despite a few minor hiccups, it went smoothly enough." Huang Yi nodded, patting its head, "Stay here on guard!"

After speaking, he and the Barbarian God Simulacrum entered the temple.

Upon entering the Barbarian God Temple, he promptly took out the box containing the Xue Huan, handing it to the Barbarian God Simulacrum: "Open this box."

"Yes! Master!" The Barbarian God Simulacrum nodded, accepting the box.
