Chapter 486 - 476
The teeth of members of the Demon Clan are treasures too; they can increase one’s demon resistance by one-tenth of their level value. This demon was level 119, so its tooth would increase demon resistance by 11.9, meaning it could exempt 11.9% of demonic series damage, which is a fairly considerable amount. The downside is that each person can only wear one! Even if you kill a Celestial Realm demon, you can at most exempt just over 20% of demonic damage.
As precious as this material is, it still pales in comparison to Huang Yi’s Nefalem bloodline. Now that he has awakened 50% of his bloodline, he can exempt up to 50% of demon resistance; adding the tooth, that would be over 60% immunity to demonic damage. In the future, if demons try to attack him, their attacks, most proficient in the demonic series, would likely be ineffective, and they might as well resort to quicker physical attacks.
"Hmm! Its blood is also a treasure! Be sure to collect all of it!" Next, Huang Yi took out a special magic bottle with a storage space and began filling it with the demon’s blood.
There are two functions to demon blood: it can cause continuous damage, and it can reduce the defense power of players. If it’s smeared on a weapon, the effect is less potent.
Ordinary demon blood is not very significant, but the blood from Holy Domain demons is no small matter, with relatively high damage and the ability to greatly reduce defense! The only problem is that it is a consumable—once used up, it’s gone, unlike demon teeth which can continue to work.
"Another Holy Domain corpse!" After collecting the blood from this Holy Domain corpse, Huang Yi spotted another body a kilometer away and immediately rushed over.
Arriving at the demon, Huang Yi expertly reached into the demon’s skull. Their death was extremely brutal, smashed into a pulp by the Ancient Giant General, making it easy for Huang Yi to extract the demon core.
This demon core was level 122, and it did not conflict with the level 119 one he had just obtained, so it could be used.
Huang Yi then stripped the demon’s corpse of anything valuable. Holy Domain demons’ bodies are treasure troves—the demon core, teeth, blood, everything is precious.
Just like this, Huang Yi tirelessly searched through this ocean for Holy Domain-level demon corpses, digging out one demon core after another, gathering all the teeth, things that would cost a fortune at the auction house, now readily available for him to claim.
An hour later, Huang Yi finally stopped. He had scoured the entire sea area and could not find any more Holy Domain demon bodies.
He had found a total of 23 Holy Domain demon corpses, yielding 23 demon cores, 20 of which were unique, essentially allowing him to level up 20 times in the future.
These Holy Domain demons were all either Primary or Intermediate Holy Domain, with no Advanced or Top Holy Domain demons among them, as their survival skills were strong—they only got injured and ultimately fled. The lowest level among these demon cores was 100, and the highest was 145.
Some of these demon cores were consecutive levels, such as from 100 to 108, which meant that once Huang Yi reached level 100, he could shoot straight up to level 109!
This pace of leveling up is definitely rocket-like!
Following that, Huang Yi did not stay much longer. The corpses of these Holy Domain demons would naturally be collected by the Dragon Fang Battleship of the Hero Guild.
Huang Yi identified his direction and headed towards the nearest underwater city.
An hour later, he arrived at a city called Green Sea City, hidden under the sea. Since the damage of the tsunami was mainly on the surface and did not significantly affect the bottom, the recent fight between the Ancient Giants had not caused much harm here.
"Who goes there?" Just then, two Sea Clan guards resembling shrimp saw Huang Yi approaching and immediately asked with a tense expression.
Huang Yi noticed that the city was now on high alert; clearly, they had detected the earlier cataclysmic battle.
"I am a Councilor from the Dragon Palace, here to inspect the area!" Huang Yi raised his hand, showing the golden dragon mark on his hand. Since he had died once before, the Sea Dragon Emperor had removed the dragon transformation skill he had bestowed, and his appearance had reverted from that of the Sea Dragon Clan to his original form.
"Ah! Greetings, Councilor!" The two guards, upon seeing the dragon pattern on Huang Yi’s hand, immediately laid down their weapons and shouted respectfully.
"Good, lead me to the teleportation circle. I need to teleport to the Dragon Palace. These times are quite troubled, so be vigilant and try to avoid going out as much as possible," Huang Yi instructed before heading into the city.
Next, he used the city’s Teleportation Circle to teleport straight into the Dragon Palace.
At this time, the Dragon Palace was still shrouded in a tense atmosphere, with some injured Holy Domain experts lingering in the sky, their expressions grave as if they feared that the Demon Clan might attack the Dragon Palace. The buildings on the ground were also tightly shut, and faintly, one could hear the cries of children and the soothing voices of parents, like the eve of a calamity.
Huang Yi walked through the streets and made a beeline for the Sea Dragon Emperor’s sleeping quarters.
At this moment, the Sea Dragon Emperor was sitting on the tremendous Dragon Throne, eyes tightly closed, seemingly concentrating on healing his wounds, while Jin Jiao lay in his arms, soundly asleep with dried tear stains on his face.
Sensing Huang Yi’s footsteps, the Sea Dragon Emperor finally opened his eyes, his dragon eyes shining brightly as he stared at him.
"Sea Dragon Emperor, mission accomplished. The demons have been dealt with!" Huang Yi said with a sense of relief, removing the Sea Dragon Emperor Armor from his body and sending it flying toward the Sea Dragon Emperor.
The Sea Dragon Emperor reached out and called, the Dragon Robe returning to drape over itself, restoring its imperial majesty in an instant.
"Thanks to you!" The voice of the Sea Dragon Emperor was still somewhat weak, but his complexion had completely relaxed. His dragon whiskers trembled slightly, and he gave a light cough, saying, "What about your Ancient Giant? How was it handled?"
Following that, Huang Yi recounted the previous events, including how the Ancient Giant defeated the Demon Clan, the Fallen Messenger called for reinforcements, and how the Ancient Giant led them to the Central Continent, and so on.
Even the Sea Dragon Emperor, a warrior of the Celestial Realm, couldn’t help but be slightly shocked after hearing Huang Yi’s description.
"God of Slaughter, we truly owe you this time. Otherwise, our Dragon Sea would have suffered an unprecedented catastrophe, and our generations’ home would have been destroyed in my era," the Sea Dragon Emperor sincerely said to Huang Yi.
"Too much praise, this was also for the sake of Hero’s Continent. Besides, I am now a councilor of the Dragon Palace, we need to help each other to survive," Huang Yi shook his head slightly, then with some concern, he asked, "Sea Dragon Emperor, do you think my Ancient Giant will safely reach the Central Continent?"
Sea Dragon Emperor stroked his whiskers and pondered, "If the Ancient Giant, as you said, has truly returned to its peak strength, even if Demon Clan experts attack it, it should take them a very long time. Moreover, its presence is so massive that wherever it goes, it brings intense tsunamis, which will surely attract the attention of the Central Continent experts soon. When they come to investigate, they will undoubtedly find the Ancient Giant en route and take good care of it, and the Demon Clan experts will be held back by the experts of the Central Continent. This Ancient Giant should not be in any danger. Once you reach the Holy Domain Rank, you can go to the Central Continent to inquire about its situation."
"That’s good! I will soon be promoted to the Holy Domain!" Huang Yi nodded, finally completely relieved. The martial arts tournament was drawing to a close, and when the Reward Vault opened, he could exchange for all sorts of treasures. He had accumulated many Stone Exchanges that could be used to exchange for many great items, including Level-Up Potions which were likely to appear. Even if he didn’t finish in the top three, he could still use Stone Exchanges to promote himself to the Holy Domain Rank.
At this moment, the Sea Dragon Emperor looked at Huang Yi and said, "Tonight you have lost an Ancient Giant for the sake of our Dragon Sea, making a great contribution, and I should properly thank you for that. From now on, you are a Senior Councilor of our Dragon Sea, and I bestow upon you the title of Dragon God General, with the right to command the Dragon Palace army and conduct operations within the Dragon Sea! I grant you the Dragon General Armor!"
Having said that, the Sea Dragon Emperor waved the Sea-Calming Divine Staff in his hand and gave a slight nod toward Huang Yi, and a golden light entered Huang Yi’s body.
"[System Prompt]: The Sea Dragon Emperor has promoted you to a senior member of the Dragon Palace Council and conferred upon you the title of Dragon God General, official rank first grade."
Subsequently, Huang Yi heard several more System Prompts one after another. As a senior member of the Dragon Palace Council, his rights within the Dragon Sea were further expanded. Moreover, he had gained a new title of Dragon God General, giving him the right to deploy troops! If he faced any attacks in the future, like the recent pursuit by the Half-Beastmen expert, he could directly summon the Dragon Palace’s top experts to his rescue.
Now within the Dragon Sea, he could say that he was safer than staying on Hero’s Continent!
"God of Slaughter, there are only twelve Senior Councilors in the entire Dragon Palace, and the position of Great General has only five slots. Apart from you, the other four generals are all Top Holy Domain Experts. But now you can sit as their equal. With your inclusion, our Dragon Sea is even more secure," the Sea Dragon Emperor said, showing a relieved smile. He took a golden Dragon Scale Armor from his storage ring, saying, "This is the Dragon General Armor. Although it is not as strong as my Sea Dragon Emperor Armor, it is still a good treasure for you. Wear it from now on! Moreover, this armor has a special feature, like the Sea Dragon Emperor Armor and Sea-Calming Divine Staff, these two royal artifacts, it will automatically return to the Dragon Palace if dropped, and will not fall into other’s hands, so you don’t have to worry about losing it. Throughout the history of the Sea Dragon Emperors, some have died in battle against foreign tribes, but the Sea Dragon Emperor Armor and Sea-Calming Divine Staff have never been lost, they would always return. Your Dragon General Armor has this feature too."
After finishing, he pushed the Dragon Emperor Armor toward Huang Yi, and it flew over.
Huang Yi immediately caught it in his hands, eagerly checking its Attributes. (To be continued.
