Heroes' Prison

Chapter 526 - 516: The Awakened Nefalem

Man Tian was a Level 203 Celestial Realm Expert, and Huang Yi was currently only at Level 114, a difference of 89 levels! Once Man Tian was slain, the massive amount of experience points would pour onto him alone! The experience points of a Celestial Realm Expert were enough to let him soar through several levels, saving a considerable amount of time from leveling up!

"You’d better pick up the pace. I’m quite concerned that he might use some special method to send out a distress signal to the Half-beastmen Holy Land behind him. Once the Half-beastmen Holy Land learns that he’s in danger, they will surely send powerful reinforcements. By then, we would be completely done for!" Huang Yi couldn’t help but admonish the five Celestial Realm Experts.

Man Tian, being a Celestial Realm Expert, was unfathomably strong. Moreover, members of the same race often had ways to send messages over long distances. What Huang Yi worried about the most was this very thing. Should the Half-beastmen Holy Domain be alerted to Man Tian’s peril, they would definitely dispatch experts to save him. The chieftain of the Half-beastmen Holy Land was a Top-Level Sky Domain Expert. If he personally came to Man Tian’s rescue, not even the criminals from Heroes’ Prison that Huang Yi could release would be able to stop him. The strongest criminals he could unleash were merely at the Primary Heaven Domain level, and these five Primary Heaven Domains had been hard for him to find.

It could be said that he was racing against time now, either to slay Man Tian first or for the Half-beastmen Holy Land’s experts to arrive before he could.

"I sense there are still one hundred Holy Domain Warriors in this territory. Call them over to help us unite and suppress together; it will save a lot of time!" suggested one of the Celestial Realm Experts at this time. The one hundred Holy Domain Warriors he mentioned were those Holy Domain Guardians that Huang Yi had previously released.

Originally, in order to deal with the one hundred Holy Domain Warriors sent by the Half-beastmen Holy Land, Huang Yi had also released one hundred Holy Domain Criminals—they were the guardians of this territory! After that, the Half-beastmen Holy Land warriors either died or fled, and these one hundred Holy Domain Criminals have remained in this territory ever since, making it as secure as a fortress. If it weren’t for the arrival of a Celestial Realm Expert like Man Tian, Huang Yi would not have had to worry at all; those one hundred Holy Domain Guardians would have made sure that the enemy could not return from whence they came.

"Okay!" Huang Yi nodded and then immediately exercised the lord’s authority, issuing a remote command to the Territory Guardians led by Sand King, ordering them to rush over quickly.

After a while, a mighty billow of dust finally appeared in the distant desert, surging forward with the momentum of a troop of wild beasts charging over.

Through the vision of The Third Eye, Huang Yi could see clearly from afar the silhouettes of that group—it was indeed the one hundred Holy Domain Guardians led by Sand King! They came in various shapes and from different races, but each exuded a sky-high aura. Although not Celestial Realm Experts, together they formed a formidable force!

"Even though they are not Celestial Realm Experts, each of them is a hero. With their help, suppressing this person’s self-destruct will be much faster!" At this moment, a Celestial Realm Expert looked at the group of swiftly approaching Holy Domain Guardians and his tense face slightly relaxed.

It didn’t take long before the one hundred Holy Domain Warriors broke through the vast dust and hurriedly arrived at the scene.

"God of Slaughter! All one hundred Guardians have arrived!" At that moment, a gigantic scorpion spoke to Huang Yi, which was none other than Sand King, the foremost Guardian of the Sub-territory.

"Hurry and assist them. Join forces to suppress the self-destruct of that Celestial Realm Expert. Should the self-destruct initiate, once the territory is destroyed, you Guardians will also perish with it. Now is the moment where the territory’s life hangs in the balance. I ask that each one of you makes your strongest effort." Huang Yi said to the one hundred Holy Domain Guardians, who were contracted with the guild territory. If the Subsidiary Battle Flag were to fall, the land would no longer belong to the Hero Guild’s territory, and what awaited them would be forceful eradication—to perish alongside the territory!

The one hundred Holy Domain Guardians knew the situation was urgent; they quickly formed five groups, with twenty people in each. They positioned themselves behind the five Celestial Realm Experts, placing their hands on the backs of those in front of them. The force from each individual was passed forward, and ultimately, all of it surged into the backs of the five Celestial Realm Experts.

With the addition of this force, the dazzling light emanating from Man Tian’s body finally weakened significantly, and the suppression speed greatly increased.

"I’ll put up a Barrier to prevent intrusions!" At this point, a Heavenly Domain Guardian quickly erected a barrier, enclosing an area with a ten-kilometer radius.

This prevented the players who came to watch the commotion from entering, leaving them clueless about what was happening inside.

Time ticked away second by second. Huang Yi’s incarnation waited in the Desolate Sands. Meanwhile, his true self was in the Abyss, fervently absorbing the Dark Breath and undergoing the final awakening.

At this moment, his true self had reached the final stage of awakening. The mysterious patterns on his body grew clearer and clearer, as if they were naturally engraved on him from birth. Each of these mysterious trajectories, reminiscent of the pathways of stars and galaxies, contained profound and supreme truths, giving him an aura of mystery and strength.

In fact, those patterns were his blood vessels, representing his Nefalem’s Bloodline!

Just then, those patterns on Huang Yi’s body suddenly emitted a fog of blood red and black, entangling and intertwiningleading to the formation of a mysterious black cocoon that enshrouded Huang Yi, leaving no trace visible to the outside.

This scene was deeply eerie. In this damp and dark Abyss, beside the teetering Demon King’s Gate, a mysterious red and black egg stood imposingly. Just the sight of it was enough to instill deep dread.

The creatures in the surrounding marshlands began to flee as if for their lives, sensing a cataclysmic danger!

At this moment, Huang Yi’s true body within the giant egg was shrouded in darkness, unable to see anything around him. He could only feel the lines of blood vessels on his body writhing, emitting a mysterious aura that was transforming his physique, leaving him with a tingling sensation throughout.

After enduring this for half an hour, Huang Yi suddenly felt his body filled with an indescribable, vast power, making him itch to tear apart everything in sight!

With swift action, Huang Yi’s fists struck out at the chaotic world around him!

"Crack!" The sound of the eggshell breaking echoed, and Huang Yi finally saw the scenery before him. The giant egg that had enveloped him was finally shattered! He had successfully emerged from within!

The next moment, he received a system prompt—

"[System Prompt]: Your Nefalem’s Bloodline has fully awakened, granting you Bloodline Talent and Bloodline Skill."

Huang Yi let out a sigh of relief. After enduring efforts that spanned days, he had finally fully awakened!

As early as a year ago, he had learned about the Nefalem’s Bloodline from his father, the Beast God. It took a full year before he finally awakened this bloodline that surpassed both gods and demons! In Huang Yi’s eyes, the importance of this bloodline was comparable to that of his Heroes’ Prison; it provided immense assistance and was something that would enhance in correspondence with his own strength, continually lending its support!

Taking a deep breath, Huang Yi eagerly checked the fully awakened Nefalem Bloodline—

Nefalem’s Bloodline, a union of god and demon, the strongest bloodline in the universe. Once fully matured, it would possess power beyond both gods and demons, a taboo acknowledged by the gods and the hordes of demons alike. Bearer of the Nefalem Bloodline, you are destined to shoulder a heavy mission, standing in opposition to both gods and demons...

The bearers of Nefalem’s Bloodline, gain a new Bloodline Talent and Bloodline Skill every 30 levels. Using Bloodline Skills requires Nefalem Power, with the upper limit being the bloodline bearer’s Level Value, gaining one Nefalem Power point for each level increased. Nefalem Power regenerates one point every three days.

Bloodline Growth Stage: Junior

Bloodline Talent (Leaning towards the demonic Attribute)——

[Body of the Demon God] (Level 30 Talent): Grants immunity to 100% Darkness-based damage, 40% Holy damage, and 20% of any damage. Normal attacks gain an Attack Bonus of 20% Darkness-based damage and 10% Holy damage.

[Demon God Growth] (Level 60 Talent): Each time you level up, you gain regular attribute points corresponding to that level which can be freely allocated to the Four Major Attributes: Constitution, Agility, Intelligence, Strength. The levels gained before bloodline awakening can also share this talent.

[Demon God Contract] (Level 90 Talent): Your Contract Partners’ Attack Power, Attack Speed, Health Points, and Defense Points are all increased by 30%, and their attacks inflict an additional 30% Darkness-based damage. The Experience required for Contract Partners to level up is reduced by 80%.

Bloodline Skill (Leaning towards the demonic Attribute)——

[Create Demons] (Level 30 Skill): Based on the characteristics of the 108 Demon Gods of the Demon Realm, create their replicas to serve as your Contract Partners. Each Demon God will have unique abilities, and their levels will grow alongside yours. Creating a Demon God requires a vast amount of material from powerful bodies, and each creation consumes 10 points of Nefalem Power.

[Demons’ Acupoints] (Level 60 Skill): Each Demon God has Nine Great Acupoints that can absorb a soul, enhancing their own power. After personally slaying an enemy, you can use this skill to capture the enemy’s soul into the Demon God’s acupoints. The stronger the soul, the more significant the Demon God’s power boost, and souls can be replaced at any time. Each use consumes one point of Nefalem Power.

[Demon God Fusion] (Level 90 Skill): You can fusion with a Demon God, and upon doing so, that Demon God does not count against your quota of Summon Contract Partners. You can only be in Combination with one Demon God at a time. Each use consumes 10 points of Nefalem Power.

After examining the talents and skills of the Nefalem Bloodline, Huang Yi was left dumbfounded. Indeed, he had not waited in vain for a year for this bloodline to awaken. This bloodline truly deserved the title "Strongest Bloodline."

When he was only 50% awakened, he had only acquired two benefits: immunity to 50% of Darkness-based damage, and an attack bonus of 10% Darkness-based damage with normal attacks. But now, after full awakening, the benefits were worlds apart! (To be continued.
