Chapter 895 - 847: Unstoppable
The Fallen Messenger’s corpse was casually carried by Dragon Spike, like a dead pig.
The overwhelming presence when the Fallen Messenger descended upon the skies above the East Mountain Forest, that commanding and majestic figure, now seemed like nothing but a fleeting dream.
The Fallen Messenger was a powerhouse of the Demon Clan, specifically tasked with managing affairs on Hero’s Continent. Figures like the Sand Thief King, whom Huang Yi previously encountered, directly followed the orders of the Fallen Messenger. All the Demon Clan’s operations on Hero’s Continent were handled by him.
And now, this formidable elite was dead!
The line between life and death is so thin—a single instant could mean eternity.
The death of the Fallen Messenger vividly showcased how rapidly Huang Yi had progressed over these past years.
It all started when Huang Yi caused trouble in the Desolate Sands, attracting one of the Sand Thief King’s three generals—Ghost Axe Black Wolf—and later killed him!
Many events followed, culminating in his eventual slaying of Ghost Axe Black Wolf’s master—the Sand Thief King!
And now, with the aid of Dragon Spike, he obliterated the commanding officer of the Sand Thief King—the Fallen Messenger!
The downfall of one elite after another marked Huang Yi’s steady ascension in strength. His journey of progression was laid bare, step by step.
The triumphant return of Yang Yuheng and Dragon Spike formed a stark contrast with the despondent figures of Miyamoto Musashi and Dante on the Void Battlefield.
At this moment, Huang Yi revealed himself, directly selecting the "suicide" command through the system interface, transforming into a lifeless body that plummeted from the sky.
The Void Battlefield finally dissipated. Miyamoto Musashi and Dante were free, but they became like lone prey animals, left utterly defenseless against Dragon Spike.
Panic-stricken, they dashed toward the exit without pausing for even a second, clinging to a last shred of hope for escape!
Yang Yuheng acted swiftly, unleashing the same Holy Light that had immobilized the Fallen Messenger earlier, freezing Dante in place. Then, he swung his Priest’s Staff downward, casting a Resurrection Skill upon Huang Yi’s lifeless corpse.
Dragon Spike, on the other hand, effortlessly discarded the Fallen Messenger’s corpse, transforming into a gust of wind that vanished into thin air and surged toward Miyamoto Musashi.
Huang Yi was resurrected in an instant. He promptly stood back up, shifting once more into his Beast King Form, and flew into the sky.
At that moment, he witnessed Miyamoto Musashi’s neck erupting with a torrent of blood, rendered utterly helpless against Dragon Spike’s onslaught.
Miyamoto Musashi frantically swung his Eastern Sword, unleashing skill after skill, from Charge to Invisibility and Body Protection. Yet none succeeded—they were all countered by Dragon Spike, their efficacy nullified. Death was inevitable.
It wasn’t long before Miyamoto Musashi was reduced to Bare Life State. His gaze suddenly hardened with unshakable resolve, as though he had made a decisive choice.
In the next instant, his body trembled violently, transforming into a lifeless corpse that fell from the sky, tracing a tragic arc!
He had chosen suicide!
Just like the Samurai of Japan, when confronted with the certainty of death, he preferred to end his own life rather than fall at the hands of his enemy!
This was his unwavering determination!
Only Dante remained on the field, immobilized.
Dragon Spike’s figure flickered—he shifted his focus and charged straight toward Dante.
In the blink of an eye, Dante’s neck burst with a stream of blood, his Health Points plummeting drastically!
Dante’s immobilization finally timed out. He immediately unleashed various skills, but none allowed him to evade the relentless assault of Dragon Spike, the King of Assassins. His Health was dwindling rapidly.
"Flying Axe!" Huang Yi seized the opportune moment to hurl his Bloodstained War Halberd toward Dante’s direction!
"Whoosh!" His Epic weapon, the Bloodstained War Halberd, raced forth through the air, trailing a deafening sonic boom!
The Flying Axe skill, after undergoing modification via his second Exclusive Skill, now featured auto-tracking capabilities, ensuring the enemy couldn’t dodge it!
"Splat!" At last, the Bloodstained War Halberd struck Dante with ferocious momentum, inflicting minor damage while knocking him back a few steps. However, it failed to seal the kill.
Huang Yi’s incarnation’s Attack Power was still too weak—defeating Dante, a Super First-Class master, proved slightly out of his reach!
Dante’s expression was grim. He promptly activated a Life-saving Skill, frantically fleeing with every ounce of strength he had. Unlike Miyamoto Musashi, he refused to surrender to death and exerted every measure in his arsenal for survival!
Dragon Spike remained like a relentless shadow, closely tailing Dante and attacking incessantly. Soon Dante was left in Bare Life State, hanging by a thread of Health. Once his Life-saving Skill’s duration expired, his fate would be sealed!
"Whoosh!" Dragon Spike executed a Chisel Strike, stunning Dante where he stood!
Following this, Dragon Spike ceased his attacks, turning to glance at Huang Yi before sheathing his dagger.
His intent was clear—he wanted to gift Dante’s kill to Huang Yi.
Having already slain four Super First-Class masters, Huang Yi had been rated "near rampage" by the system.
For Dragon Spike, eliminating Dante offered little further value, so he opted to let Huang Yi finish the job, curious to see how the system would assess such a continuous wave of kills.
This question was one the entire global player base was dying to answer.
If Huang Yi continued this spree, would he fulfill specific system criteria and reap some sort of reward?
Finally, Dante’s Life-saving Skill expired!
In the next moment, blood erupted from his chest as his lifeless body fell to the earth.
Huang Yi had used the Blood Strike, an attached skill of the Bloodstained War Halberd, to deliver the fatal blow.
...
Across Hero’s Continent, countless players waited anxiously!
There were no reporters at the East Mountain Forest battle, so many players were unaware it had occurred.
However, the announcement of Dragon Spike joining the Hero Legion had reached everyone’s ears.
Further cementing the news was the awe-inspiring Heavenly Phenomenon triggered by his ascension to the Celestial Realm, visible worldwide, stunning players across every nation!
Forums had become chaotic, flooded with speculation about Dragon Spike’s whereabouts, his sudden rise from Level 180 to the Heavenly Realm, and whether this implied a monumental battle somewhere. What was the outcome of this battle?
At that moment, an expansive and distant announcement echoed across Hero’s Continent—
"[Continental Announcement]:[God of Slaughter] has slain [Dante]. God of Slaughter is now unstoppable!"
Another Super First-Class master had fallen to Huang Yi!
This battle likely marked yet another victory for the Hero Legion!
Unstoppable!
This was a brand-new system rating, earned only after killing five major figures on the battlefield!
This was the second time Dante had fallen to Huang Yi. His level, originally at 196, had now dropped to 195!
Hero Legion players erupted in jubilant celebration. Although the Invading Army’s Heavenly Dao had ascended to the Celestial Realm earlier, momentarily dampening Hero Legion morale and discouraging confrontation, the focus shifted entirely to battling the Demon Clan.
Now, with Dragon Spike’s ascension and this resounding victory, Hero Legion’s confidence was rekindled! They could once again face the Invading Army head-on!
More critically, the Invading Army was running out of time—Huang Yi’s Reincarnation was nearing its end, with fewer than ten days remaining!
Even in his incarnation, Huang Yi had eliminated five Super First-Class masters. What would happen when his true body completed its Reincarnation and returned? How would the enemy respond?
Nearly everyone could foresee the conclusion of the months-long national war unfolding in the final stretch.
Given the current trajectory, unless the Invading Army received overwhelming reinforcement, their defeat seemed inevitable!
...
"Alright! This time, we achieved a decisive victory! Bring back the Fallen Messenger’s corpse. The entire body of a Celestial Realm demon is a treasure trove—it can be used to create all sorts of items." Hovering over the East Mountain Forest, Huang Yi retracted the Bloodstained War Halberd, casually speaking.
At this moment, Dragon Spike flicked his hands, producing two items and tossing them to Huang Yi.
Huang Yi swiftly caught them and inspected them closely.
Among the two items, one seemed familiar—a black, semi-transparent bead, soft to the touch, emanating a majestic Celestial Realm aura. Without a doubt, this was a Demon Core!
The Fallen Messenger’s level was 227, and so too was his Demon Core!
A Holy Domain-rank Demon Core’s primary use was for leveling up, especially above Level 190, saving significant amounts of Level Grinding time with each core.
However, Celestial Realm Demon Cores were better suited for crafting treasures, such as premium equipment or exceptional potions. Using them for leveling up felt like a waste.
The other item was a fully black storage ring—simple and unadorned, its edges marred by scratches, appearing utterly ordinary.
But this was the Fallen Messenger’s storage ring!
When humanoid NPCs die, there is a chance their storage rings will drop, though this is not guaranteed.
If one does drop, it represents an incredible windfall!
Previously, Huang Yi acquired the storage ring of the Half-Beastman Celestial Realm powerhouse, Man Tian, during the battle on Land of Dongying. He met the conditions to open it but reincarnated immediately after, leaving it unopened.
Now, he held the storage ring of the Fallen Servant—another item belonging to a Celestial Realm expert. Its contents were unknown, but given the Fallen Messenger’s status, its value was undoubtedly immense.
Huang Yi promptly attempted to open the storage ring but was met with a System Prompt—
"[System Prompt]: This storage ring is sealed with a Demon Clan magic seal and can only be unsealed by a Demon Clan expert."
Just as expected, this ring was sealed like Man Tian’s, preventing anyone outside the respective faction from accessing it, rendering it useless to enemies.
However, Huang Yi was undeterred. One of his Evolution Forms was the Eyeless Demon, which met the criteria for unsealing this ring!
