Heroes' Prison

Chapter 685 - 658: Unrivaled (Fourth Update)

"Ah!" At this moment, the distant battlefield where Huang Yi was slaughtering vibrated with continuous screams of the Martial Arts Guild’s members—their agonizing voices belonging to her fellow comrades from the same guild. Those very voices were battering her eardrums, torturing her heart.

Finally, Zhitian Shi clenched her teeth and pulled out a red-glowing Energy Stone from her storage ring.

This was indeed a Special Energy Stone. They had been searching for such stones with all their might since the race for the first kill at the 100th Floor of the Tower of Pantheons, but to no avail. Special Energy Stones were exceedingly rare and mostly came by chance rather than searching.

It was only some time ago that they managed to purchase one at a high price from an ordinary player—the only one they had at present.

"Zhitian Shi, don’t do anything foolish." Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out above Zhitian Shi, a voice capable of stirring her heartstrings.

Zhitian Shi looked up and instantly saw Huang Yi, mounted on Little Dragon, hovering in front of her in the sky above, looking down at her.

In the midst of the endless noise and chaos of the square, she looked up at him as if everything else had ceased to exist.

At that moment, the distance between them was incredibly close, yet immeasurably distant—not just the distance dictated by their opposing factions, but also the chasm between their feelings. Huang Yi had just proposed to Qin Shiyu in her presence, making it impossible for anything to happen between them again.

"Zhitian Shi, stop wasting your Special Energy Stone. You won’t be able to help Miyamoto Musashi; even if you fuse with his corpse, you’ll still fail!" Huang Yi continued to try and persuade Zhitian Shi.

Zhitian Shi had a significant amount of Legendary Equipment on her, as noticeable as the bright moon in the sky, and naturally, Huang Yi’s Treasure-sniffing Ability had detected her. He had always deliberately avoided injuring her because she had once helped him.

He had just noticed that Zhitian Shi had taken out a Special Energy Stone and surmised that she must be planning something big. He immediately rode Little Dragon over quickly to convince her, hoping to prevent a fight between them.

Zhitian Shi forced herself to remain calm, putting on a cold demeanor, "You cause trouble in our Northern Sea City, kill our people; should I not act?"

Huang Yi pursed his lips, "I’m doing this because your brother forced me to. I don’t want to fight you; of course, I can’t stop you either. But I have to tell you, even if you fuse with Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse, you still won’t stand a chance against me. And you would die too; I don’t want to harm you."

"Then let’s give it a try! If I indeed can’t deal with you, I’ll have nothing more to say." Zhitian Shi spoke coldly, yet her eyes filled with tears, as if she were about to cry uncontrollably.

She immediately turned her head away, holding back her tears, and gently waved her hand toward Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse.

Instantly, a gray mist shot out from her arm like a snake slithering through the air, winding its way through the crowds in the square, and crawled over to Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse!

By this time, the media had already locked their cameras onto this scene. Seeing Zhitian Shi’s action, the reporters’ tone increased by an octave—

"Dear viewers! Just now, God of Slaughter even killed Miyamoto Musashi, exhibiting an unstoppable momentum! But now, Zhitian Shi has made her move. The skill she just used is none other than the Corpse Fusion Skill that shocked the world during the team finals of the martial tournament! This skill allows her to fuse with the corpse of Miyamoto Musashi, adding all of his Attributes and Levels to her own. With that, God of Slaughter will face a severe challenge!"

"Right now, Miyamoto Musashi is at Level 119, while Zhitian Shi is at Level 125. Once she fuses with Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse, her Level will soar to 244! This is already the might of an Intermediate Heavenly Domain Expert! And God of Slaughter is merely a Level 151 Holy Domain master; there’s nearly a 100 Level difference between them. Against such a formidable enemy, it will be difficult for God of Slaughter to overcome this predicament. In the previous tournament, God of Slaughter utilized every trick at his disposal, using the incredible methods of a Special Energy Stone, Skill Copying, and Attribute Exchange Potion simultaneously to defeat Zhitian Shi under the Corpse Fusion effect. And now, he seems not to have these conditions..."

At this time, numerous reporters were once again pessimistic about Huang Yi; they found it hard to imagine how Huang Yi could defeat an Intermediate Heaven Domain expert.

However, they didn’t dare to be too definitive in their statements, as Huang Yi had made comebacks far too many times, astonishing everyone with his unexpected counters. Miracles were not unusual for him.

Just then, Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse rose to its feet. His expression was extremely blank as he moved with stiff yet swift steps, quickly charging towards Zhitian Shi and collided firmly with her, fusing them together into one!

Suddenly, Zhitian Shi’s body underwent a transformation; the front side still bore her own face, but her back turned into Miyamoto Musashi, and her Level instantly shot up from 125 to 244! A genuine Intermediate Heavenly Domain powerhouse!

At that moment, the whole world seemed to quiet down!

Members of the Martial Arts Guild in the square, reporters, onlookers, experts from other Guilds on the Land of Dongying, countless viewers in front of their televisions, all of them were fixated on Zhitian Shi!

This was the highest Level player they had seen so far—Level 244! Although it was only a skill effect and she hadn’t truly reached the Heavenly Domain Level, lacking the powers of that realm.

But just that Level alone was enough to crush Huang Yi, a Level 151 player!

"Zhitian Shi, I truly do not wish to become your enemy." It was then, seemingly unaffected by her Corpse Fusion, that Huang Yi, who should have been at a disadvantage, suddenly spoke to Zhitian Shi as if he hadn’t been affected at all.

Zhitian Shi bit her lip, silent. Everyone was waiting for her to crush Huang Yi with an overwhelming force, but she too, did not want to be his enemy.

Two people who didn’t want to be enemies were forced into enmity, helplessly becoming adversaries.

Zhitian Shi clenched her teeth tightly and gripped her knight’s lance, launching a fierce blast of lance qi toward Huang Yi!

Such was the attack of an Intermediate Heaven Domain expert, capable of intimidating everyone present with just a burst of lance qi!

At this moment, with all eyes on them, Huang Yi saw Zhitian Shi strike and he immediately counterattacked, saying only one thing—

"Zhitian Shi—die."

The next moment, to the shock of countless players, the once formidable Zhitian Shi fell!

She, a Level 244 Intermediate Heaven Domain expert whose strength was immeasurable, died in such an eerie manner!

Huang Yi’s words seemed to be imbued with a sort of deadly magic power, decreeing death on whomever he named!

"Instant-kill potion!" At that instant, countless people blurted out the name of a potion!

At the earlier martial arts tournament, Huang Yi’s instant-kill potion had stunned the world. When he used it back then, he would simply say his opponent’s name, and then his opponent would die.

Now, Zhitian Shi’s manner of death was exactly the same as when Huang Yi used the instant-kill potion before, making people naturally think of it.

"But he hasn’t drunk any potion before this! What is going on?" Soon, many people began to voice their doubts. Huang Yi had not shown any motion of drinking a potion from start to finish, as if he inherently possessed this instakill ability.

Indeed, it was one of Huang Yi’s abilities!

After his National Honor Points reached 7, he gained a Name Bestowing Skill, which, just like his name, was called Instakill!

The effect of this skill was equivalent to the instant-kill potion. However, it had a cooldown time of 100 days, and Huang Yi had never used it before—this was the first time.

This precious skill had wasted a precious Special Energy Stone from the Martial Arts Guild, killing Zhitian Shi in the process and causing her level to drop from 125 to 124. However, Zhitian Shi also had the ability not to drop equipment upon death, so her loss was only in levels.

All around, the players of the Martial Arts Guild looked at each other in dismay. They hadn’t expected Zhitian Shi’s heavy-hitting skill to fail against Huang Yi!

Zhitian Shi, whom they had had such high hopes for, followed in the footsteps of Miyamoto Musashi. The two strongest members of the Martial Arts Guild met with defeat so unbelievable!

From this point on, the Martial Arts Guild had been completely defeated at the player level! There was no player who could fight Huang Yi!

Hereafter, the Martial Arts Guild would carry a shame—that even without Huang Yi having the benefit of China’s National Honor Points, even away from the Hero’s Continent, within one of the Martial Arts Guild’s most important cities, Northern Sea City, under the top-level Heavenly Curtain barrier, with all methods at their disposal, with the benefit of Japan’s National Honor Points, and even with hostages in hand... they were still slaughtered by Huang Yi without a single blow being exchanged!

Of course, they wouldn’t know that this was due to the Slaughter Curse Huang Yi possessed.

Huang Yi glanced at Zhitian Shi’s corpse, sighing inwardly. He then continued to unleash four wide-reaching attacks, slaughtering members of the Martial Arts Guild.

This was no longer battle; it was a slaughter for the purpose of leveling up.

At this time, Miyamoto Musashi’s corpse disappeared and reappeared at a Respawn Point in Northern Sea City. Now completely devoid of any leader’s spirited demeanor, his face was blank.

He simply couldn’t fathom why all the carefully prepared methods he had could not deal with Huang Yi! It seemed like his opponent was born to counter him, rendering all his efforts futile!

"Big brother, what do we do now? We have no one who can fight the God of Slaughter!" Just then, Meng Junlin’s voice came from beside Miyamoto Musashi, who had also been killed by Huang Yi and revived there.

"Now, we can only ask the Guardian to take action! We did so much preparation, secured an absolute advantage to deal with just one player, and yet we still have to rely on a Guardian to kill him—I am not content with this!" Miyamoto Musashi gritted his teeth, but he was helpless.

Afterward, he walked out of the Respawn Point barrier step by step, leaving Jun Zhiye with a particularly desolate silhouette.
