Heroes' Prison

Chapter 532 - 521 Triumph

This meant that the Barbarian God’s strength was even greater, his Health Points much harder, more resistant!

And he had gained an additional trump card in his left foot, the most powerful part of his entire body. If this foot kicked an enemy, one couldn’t fathom the severe damage it would inflict.

Now, Huang Yi was ready to take the second step. He continued to address the Barbarian God, "Barbarian God, next up, I shall absorb you, making you my Soul Spirit!"

As it turned out, Huang Yi’s idea was to have Man Tian enhance the Barbarian God’s power and then have the Barbarian God amplify his own strength, letting a single corpse achieve a dual effect.

"Okay, Master!" The Barbarian God held no resistance toward Huang Yi and immediately nodded in agreement.

Huang Yi swiftly chose to absorb the Barbarian God, treating him as the Nine Layers Soul Spirit for his Attack Spirit! This was just like when he absorbed the Two-Headed Lin as his Soul Spirit, which he could still summon at any time.

In a flash, a similar scene unfolded once again. The Barbarian God transformed into a sphere of blood light, just like Man Tian before, and fused into Huang Yi’s body! This was almost like a small fish devouring a shrimp, and a bigger fish eating the small fish.

After absorbing Man Tian, the mightiest Soul Spirit, Huang Yi’s War Soul surged in power, far surpassing that of any previous Soul Spirit!

His Attack Spirit Nine Layers, simultaneously gained three Attributes—Holy Domain Strength +8 points, Holy Domain Attack +40 points, Critical Hit Effect +20%!

Previously, all of Huang Yi’s Soul Spirits had only contributed a single attribute, but a single Barbarian God brought him no less than three Attributes! Certainly, some of this was thanks to Man Tian, who was a genuine Celestial Realm Expert, and the impact of such enhancement was too great!

Man Tian proved to be an exceptionally loyal foe— he not only sacrificed all his Experience Points, his storage ring, his S-level potions to Huang Yi, but he also didn’t spare his own body, squeezing out every last drop of value from it.

With that, the threat of Man Tian was finally neutralized. Huang Yi breathed a small sigh of relief; Man Tian’s persecution was like a sword hanging over his head, and he couldn’t feel at ease without resolving this hidden danger. Now that Man Tian was dead, Huang Yi felt as if the dark clouds had dissipated, and the sun had broken through.

However, this was only temporary. A bigger storm cloud loomed behind, which was the Half-beastmen Holy Land’s more severe retaliation! They had pursued Huang Yi three times—the first was a single Holy Domain Warrior, the second was a hundred Holy Domain Warriors, and the third was Man Tian, a Celestial Realm Expert. Each pursuit was more intense than the last, but Huang Yi neutralized them all, even bolstering his strength in the process.

This time, Huang Yi had truly stirred up a hornet’s nest! Killing a Celestial Realm Expert, considering the Half-beastmen Holy Land had only so many Celestial Realm Experts, each one highly treasured, had caused a significant loss, and the whole Holy Land was bound to be thunderously enraged. No one knew how they would violently retaliate!

If the leader of the Half-beastmen Holy Land were to personally come forth, then Huang Yi would be in danger! The leader of the Half-beastmen Holy Land was a top-level Sky Domain Expert, a Level 295 being, about to break through to the Divine Domain level. Huang Yi could summon numerous Primary Heavenly Domain Criminals, but that would be of no use, especially considering the limited number of Primary Heavenly Domain Criminals he could summon.

"Alright! Let’s head back! We’ve dealt with this disaster," Huang Yi said to the over a hundred Guardians around him. He then took the lead in summoning the Two-Headed Lin and hurried toward Dragon City at high speed. The hundred Holy Domain Warriors and five Celestial Realm Experts slowed their pace, following closely behind him, looking to him for direction.

...

At this moment, outside the Barrier that was ten kilometers away from Huang Yi and the others, there was already a sea of people. Some had teleported from other cities to witness the mysterious event with their own eyes. Others were reporters who rushed over to broadcast live on the forums, satisfying the curiosity of the players!

"Dear viewers! It’s been one day since God of Slaughter gave the retreat order! We don’t know what exactly happened inside the Barrier. But in the span of this one day, several strange phenomena emerged from within the Barrier. First, it started with a scream last night that echoed through the heavens, likely signalling a peerless master suffering a fatal, grave injury; soon after, a bright light burst forth from the Barrier, shining like a small Sun, which lasted for a lengthy period of time before it finally extinguished a short while ago."

"Additionally, witnesses claim that a hundred Holy Domain Guardians from the Hero Guild’s Sub-territory also rushed to the scene last night, though their purpose remains unknown. This continued up until just now when an astonishing development occurred—in the rankings, God of Slaughter’s level suddenly leapt up by five levels, jumping from Level 114 to Level 119, leading to speculations that he might have slain a powerful Leader-level figure!"

"God of Slaughter’s actions have greatly impacted tomorrow’s team finals. In just two days, he wildly ascended from Level 100 to Level 119, which was beyond everyone’s expectations. It’s now difficult to analyze who has a greater chance of winning the team championship, as Miyamoto Musashi, even with the Martial Emperor Title, might not be stronger than God of Slaughter..."

Right now, countless people were guessing that this twist of events should be coming to an end. When Huang Yi reached Level 119, the world was shocked. On the forums, the topic of this event soared to the top, and it can be said that the eyes of hundreds of millions of viewers worldwide were focused on that Barrier, yet no one could penetrate it to see what mysterious happenings were unfolding within.

"Hmm? There’s movement!" Just then, players with exceptional visual capabilities outside the Barrier noticed a large cloud of dust in the distance, as if a herd of beasts was charging toward them. The Moonlight, however, was too faint to reveal what lay within clearly.

This scene instantly captured the attention of countless individuals. Reporters and players who were live streaming, rigorously focused on the cloud of dust, rapidly showcasing the development on the forum, broadcasting it to a global audience in real time.

That cloud of dust, akin to the fog that persisted for a day, soon revealed its true nature!

Quickly, the dust cloud drew closer, ultimately revealing the scene within.

Amidst the sand and dust, there was a familiar figure with delicate features, riding a ferocious creature with two heads, a headband scattering starlight around his head, and clutching a massive broadaxe in his hand. He was riding fast through the cloud of sand, brimming with killing intent.

This person was none other than Huang Yi, the one countless people had been waiting for!

Following him was a group of peerless warriors, each with a formidable aura. They were of various forms and races, but each one was a supremely strong being that one could only look up to.

Among them, the aura of five individuals were like beacons of war smoke, shooting straight into the starry sky, causing hearts to tremble with fear!

"My God! The aura of those five... it’s too strong!"

"Celestial Realm Experts! Those five are definitely Celestial Realm Experts!"

"How did the God of Slaughter manage this? He’s actually called upon five Heaven Domain Helpers! Can this be the deed of a mortal?"

In an instant, countless spectators exclaimed in shock, their eyes fixed on the five Heavenly Domain Guardians!

And the reporters kept their cameras trained on Huang Yi and the five guardians behind him, not wanting to miss a single second of the footage.

At that moment, Huang Yi was like a general, leading a retinue of proud and great warriors back from a triumphant campaign. They seemed invincible, and where they went, their enemies perished.

Nobody knew what sort of victorious battle they had fought the previous night, nor how powerful the enemies they vanquished were!

Billions of viewers around the world were stunned speechless by the sight!

Never had anyone commanded so many strong individuals except for Huang Yi! Just like when he previously led a group of masters back in triumph after slaying those one hundred Holy Domain warriors of the Half-beast race, history was repeating itself!

Dragon City was simply an impregnable place; those who caused trouble would die! Now, as they returned in triumph and Huang Yi had leveled up to 119, it was clear that some unfortunate peerless warrior had fallen to them.

...

At the top floor of the City Hall in the Land of Dongying, of the Martial Arts Guild.

Miyamoto Musashi stood by the window with his hands behind his back, bathed in the pure moonlight that shone on his samurai attire. His deep gaze was fixed on the vast moon in the sky, the ring mountains on its surface so distinct that one couldn’t help but want to ascend and see for themselves.

"I knew you would be here." Just then, a gentle voice came from behind Miyamoto Musashi. A strikingly beautiful woman with a lovely face approached and stood with him under the moonlight.

At that moment, the stars seemed to dim, for the woman’s eyes were the most dazzling stars, stealing the splendor of the night sky. The bright moonlight, combined with her charming countenance, created a dreamlike beauty, as if this was a fantasy, and she was the goddess of countless young men’s dreams.

In fact, she was indeed the dream lover of numerous male players, being the recipient of the Best Charm Award at the last annual festival of Zhitian Shi. But now, she stood motionless, her gaze on Miyamoto Musashi filled with a sense of closeness.

"Little sister, would you mind knocking next time you come in?" Miyamoto Musashi turned his head to look at Zhitian Shi and slightly furrowed his brow. To others, she might be a dream goddess, but to him, she was nothing more than an annoying little sister, an inescapable shadow, following him wherever he went.

"We’ve finally got news from the God of Slaughter," said Zhitian Shi, her temper as even as ever, not throwing a tantrum or getting petulant with her brother like other girls might. She immediately made her purpose known.

"What news?" Upon hearing this, Miyamoto Musashi’s expression immediately turned solemn, clearly considering this matter more important than Zhitian Shi, his sister.

"Man Tian is very likely to have been slain by him! You’ll see if you check the rankings," said Zhitian Shi, drawing in a deep breath and delivering a message that weighed heavily in the air.
