Heroes' Prison

Chapter 873 - 826: Creating a God (Part 2)

"You want my help?" The campus basketball enthusiast was momentarily stunned, then immediately forced a bitter smile. "How can I be of any help? I’m not a super first-class master. Besides, even if I were to help, it would still take at least a month’s voyage to reach Hero’s Continent, unless there’s a Heavenly Domain expert who could use some kind of treasure to send me there."

Huang Yi shook his head and said, "The help I’m asking for is just for you to introduce me to the high-level leaders of your race. I need to help Yang Yuheng enhance his strength. He’s the chieftain of your Draenei Race, so you’ll take me to your Draenei Sanctuary to retrieve your race’s heritage treasure. I’ll then pass it on to Yang Yuheng, which will greatly boost his power without delaying too much time. We need to kill Miyamoto Musashi as soon as possible."

"The racial heritage treasure! You mean the treasure of our Draenei Sanctuary—the Crown of Draenei?" The campus basketball enthusiast blurted out instinctively.

Huang Yi nodded and said, "Exactly! Each race has their treasure, which holds tremendous effects for members of their kin, though they’re not easily obtained by ordinary people. However, Yang Yuheng is your chieftain and has now risen to the Heavenly Domain Level, so I presume your race’s high-level leaders would have little objection. As long as you introduce us and let them trust that Yang Yuheng and I share a mutually committed relationship, they’re very likely to give me that racial heritage treasure."

"Even if you manage to obtain my race’s treasure, how would you deliver it to Yang Yuheng?" The campus basketball enthusiast frowned. "You’re currently in the Central Continent, far away from Hero’s Continent. If it’s as urgent as you say, the delay in delivering it would be disastrous."

"I have my own way, don’t worry." Huang Yi replied vaguely, avoiding specific details.

"Alright then! I’ll skip this class. I’ll take you to the Draenei Sanctuary now. Our academy has a direct teleportation circle to the Draenei, so we can get there immediately." With that, the campus basketball enthusiast tossed the giant iron ball in his hands and started leading the way ahead.

...

An hour later, the campus basketball enthusiast brought Huang Yi through teleportation to the Draenei Sanctuary—the Holy Light Hills.

The Holy Light Hills was an expansive region, larger than some smaller nations’ exclusive continents. This was the sacred land of the Draenei Race.

The Draenei worshipped the Holy Light. The ground of this land glowed with a golden hue, as if covered in a spread of gold. Sprouting across the terrain were patches of purple crystals, alongside immense, purple-blue trees reaching to the heavens, their colors vibrant and striking.

The Holy Light Hills resembled an entirely independent kingdom, within which numerous Draenei cities stood. At its very center lay the sanctuary’s core—the Holy Light Divine Mountain.

Ordinary individuals were barred from entering the sacred core, but with the campus basketball enthusiast’s introduction, Huang Yi faced little obstruction along the way.

As Huang Yi traveled, he saw beams of dazzling Holy Light shooting skyward from all directions. Draenei people of all ages—the young, the old, women, and children—cheered and celebrated joyfully. Songs of the Draenei echoed through the hills as they released bursts of Holy Light freely.

Wherever Huang Yi’s gaze landed, joyous festivities stretched endlessly beyond his sight, as though the entire race was engaged in a grand celebration.

The scene brought a smile to the campus basketball enthusiast’s face, and he explained to Huang Yi, "God of Slaughter, these celebratory scenes are in honor of Yang Yuheng, the first of our people to ascend to the Heavenly Domain Level as a Heaven-Sent Man. It’s an immense glory for the Draenei Race and will forever be chronicled in our history. We owe this to you. Without the assistance of your Hero Legion, Yang Yuheng wouldn’t have achieved this honor."

Huang Yi nodded, saying, "Perfect. When we meet the Elders Council later, say a few good words on my behalf. It’ll increase the chances they’ll entrust me with your racial heritage treasure."

The two conversed as they made their way up the mountain peak.

At its summit stood an array of luxurious golden buildings, encrusted with gleaming amethysts. Majestic and grand, they showcased the architectural style of the Draenei Race.

The campus basketball enthusiast led Huang Yi straight down a main avenue and into the facade of a towering structure, eventually arriving in a spacious reception hall.

"God of Slaughter, wait here for a moment. I’ll go invite the Elders Council. You’re the renowned God of Slaughter and a Purple Badge student of the Oskan Royal Academy, so they’ll likely be delighted to meet you." The campus basketball enthusiast addressed Huang Yi quickly before hurrying off.

Huang Yi settled into a chair and sipped the fruit wine offered by the maids, patiently awaiting the next steps.

A short while later, a heavy series of footsteps echoed from outside, signaling the hurried approach of company.

Soon enough, the door swung open, and a group of people filed in from the exterior.

Most of them were elderly, their faces deeply lined and their bodies slightly hunched. Their ornate robes reflected their esteemed status.

The group numbered more than ten individuals, their auras remarkably formidable. Though advanced in age, their strength was undeniable, a testament to their prowess in their youth.

"Elders, this is the God of Slaughter!" The campus basketball enthusiast stepped forward, introducing Huang Yi to the group.

The leading elder, clad in golden robes and gripping a scepter, immediately revealed a warm smile, addressing Huang Yi. "God of Slaughter, we’ve heard that Yang Yuheng’s ascension to the Heavenly Domain earlier today was credited to your aid. Could you share the details with us?"

With that, he and the rest of the elders gazed expectantly at Huang Yi.

"Of course!" Huang Yi began recounting the events of today’s national war in detail.

By the time Huang Yi finished his tale, the elders exchanged looks of astonishment, stunned by his extensive efforts on Yang Yuheng’s behalf.

"...Currently, Yang Yuheng has only one remaining enemy, but he’s still too weak to confront them. He urgently requires your Draenei Race’s heritage treasure to significantly enhance his strength." At last, Huang Yi voiced his primary purpose for coming, his eyes filled with expectation as he stared at the elders.

"This... Our racial treasure is no ordinary object. It’s the very witness to our race’s heritage..." The elders hesitated. After all, handing over such an important relic to an outsider posed a certain risk.

"Elders, without the God of Slaughter’s assistance, Chieftain Yang Yuheng would never have become the first Heavenly Domain Level Heaven-Sent Man. He’s proven trustworthy, just as the God of Slaughter has. Moreover, he is a Purple Badge student of the Oskan Royal Academy, frequently recognized by even Deputy Dean Divine Marksman Ica. There’s no reason to doubt him." The campus basketball enthusiast spoke up timely, supporting Huang Yi.

"Let’s do it this way." Huang Yi thought for a moment before flexing his arm, unleashing a series of crackling electric arcs.

Then, he removed the Thunder Guard Bracers shimmering with lightning from his arms and placed them on the nearby table. "This is one of my pieces of epic equipment, named Thunder Guard Bracers. You should understand its value. If you don’t trust me, you can temporarily hold onto this as collateral in exchange for temporarily lending your racial treasure to me. How does that sound?"

The dozen elders, moved by Huang Yi’s sincerity and recalling his contributions to Yang Yuheng, deliberated amongst themselves. Finally, the leading elder nodded and said, "Very well! We’ll temporarily entrust you with our racial treasure. Just make sure to deliver it promptly to Yang Yuheng to boost his power. This treasure’s effects only activate for someone at the Heavenly Domain Level or higher, and Yang Yuheng indeed qualifies for it now."

Saying this, the elder turned to another. "Chanting Elder, head to the Hall of Heritage and retrieve the Crown of Draenei."

"Understood!" Another elder instantly rose from their seat and left the reception hall.

Only then did Huang Yi breathe a sigh of relief. With the Crown of Draenei in hand, Yang Yuheng should be ready to defeat Miyamoto Musashi.

Today, they had achieved a colossal accomplishment in the shortest amount of time—a feat akin to divine creation!

Yang Yuheng, who had been just an ordinary player, had risen to the Heavenly Domain within a single day. With the use of two Class Upgrade Scrolls, he could ascend into a Rare Class. Combined with the treasure of the Draenei Race and an S-grade potion of Ancient Giant Blood Serum... This sequence of upgrades would elevate him to a near godly-level player status. All that remained was his final duel with Miyamoto Musashi to complete his ultimate ascent.

If he managed to defeat Miyamoto Musashi, Yang Yuheng would be a pillar of Hero’s Continent for a long time to come. With his presence stabilizing the realm, enemies would pose little threat except for when figures like Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T. also ascended to the Heavenly Domain.
