Heroes' Prison

Chapter 935 - 883 This is the Real Dao Feng!

"Dao Feng, you should combine with Gentleman!" Beneath the Heavenly Curtain Barrier, Huang Yi sent a message to Dao Feng. He only proposed it with a try-it-out mindset, as the real decision still lay in Dao Feng’s hands.

The cost of this move was too high, and Huang Yi wasn’t sure if Dao Feng was willing to use it.

Upon the fusion of the Divine Embryo with the main body, the strength of the main body would be greatly enhanced. However, if they separated again after fusion, the Divine Embryo would need to be nurtured from scratch, turning all previous efforts into mere clouds.

Nobody knew how much effort Dao Feng had expended and how long he had taken to nurture Gentleman to the super first-class master level it was today. Starting from scratch to reach the super first-class level again would be nearly impossible.

Dao Feng intended to continue nurturing Gentleman to as high a level as possible, so that once combined, they would never separate again, directly aiming for the Deification Realm. Gentleman had just stepped into the Heavenly Domain Level, so combining now seemed premature, akin to "killing the chicken for its egg."

Therefore, Huang Yi couldn’t be sure if Dao Feng would agree. If the situation weren’t so dire, Huang Yi wouldn’t want Dao Feng to combine with Gentleman, even after the national war.

In the next moment, countless people in the audience saw a bizarre scene —

In the chaotic battlefield high up, Gentleman suddenly blinked past a flurry of attacks, darting straight toward Dao Feng!

And Dao Feng, meanwhile, continuously dodged attacks, moving toward Gentleman.

Both figures turned into black shadows, rapidly closing the distance in the sky, passing through numerous obstructions, and collided with each other!

Instantly, a dazzling golden light burst forth from the point of collision!

Countless people instinctively raised their hands to shield their eyes from the blinding golden light!

When the golden light faded, Gentleman was gone, leaving only Dao Feng alone in place.

A massive circle of golden light erupted from his body, spreading outwards in all directions, extending to the horizon and covering the entire sky!

On the battlefield, millions were drawn to this strange golden light, collectively raising their heads to gaze at it from afar.

Even those super-first masters, including the four Soldiers of Annihilation, were fixated on Dao Feng!

At this moment, Dao Feng’s body stood tall and proud, still donned in golden armor, holding a golden war blade in each hand, his gaze still steadfast and upright.

But his aura had suddenly intensified significantly, a halo of gold shimmering behind his head as if he were a god descending from heaven.

In the next moment, a vast, distant voice echoed across the heavens and earth—

"[System Announcement]: [Sword Emperor]’s military rank has advanced to Marshal, awarding 1000 points of Public Prestige and receiving a [Unique Achievement]—[First Marshal], China National Honor Value +1."

The entire battlefield seemed to freeze at that moment!

The air was silent, and even the sounds of battle seemed to diminish!

This moment belonged to Dao Feng, who stood upright at the world’s center, the focal point of billions of eyes!

Whether it was players from the Hero Legion, enemy players, or those well-informed reporters, all gaped at him in awe!

In The Second World, only five people had reached the General level: Pharaoh, Huang Yi, Gentleman, T.N.T, and Heavenly Dao, one of whom should have been the first Marshal.

Dao Feng had not been in the national war for long, and his military rank could not compare to these five. Nobody thought he would become the first Marshal. But now, Dao Feng suddenly became Marshal! He and Gentleman just collided, and he became Marshal!

As the crowd was still in shock, another system announcement echoed across the land—

"[System Announcement]: [Sword Emperor] contributed 5 points of National Honor Value, reaching the name elevation condition, with the attribute attached to the name enhancement."

The second individual for name elevation was born!

Previously, in The Second World, only Huang Yi had undergone a name elevation: upgraded once at 5 points, once at 7 points, and now led with 9 National Honor Points, while the second place only had 4 points.

Now, Dao Feng, having achieved the world’s first Marshal, reached 5 National Honor Points and became the second name elevation wielder after Huang Yi!

Dao Feng’s series of announcements were like two heavy punches, leaving the world stunned!

"Look at the ranking board, Dao Feng rose 25 levels in one go and regained the first place on the world level ranking!"

This exclamation rocked the crowd on Sun Island!

Everyone quickly checked the leaderboard and, sure enough, the top of the world level ranking had changed, from 219 to 228, and the new first place bore a familiar name—Sword Emperor!

"Dear viewers, after the collision between Dao Feng and Gentleman, there were two system announcements, and he instantly rose 25 levels, becoming first on the world level ranking! It’s unbelievable! This Dao Feng feels so familiar, as if he’s truly returned, the Dao Feng full of edge has returned. This is the Dao Feng we remember..." Some reporters began to murmur, this scene too familiar, as if returning to the era of Dao Feng.

In the first two years of The Second World’s opening, the name Dao Feng dominated the world rank for two years straight, unshakable.

In that era, Dao Feng was the absolute protagonist. There was no God of Slaughter then, Thunder God was a newbie, and Sword Emperor was hidden who knows where...

During that time, Dao Feng’s radiance illuminated the world, and no matter where you were, you could hear his legends!

At that time, Dao Feng was omnipotent, representing the first place, the ultimate power, whether the level ranking, combat power ranking, or any other aspect, he was first!

But later, with the rise of Huang Yi and Thunder God, and with Sharp Sword suddenly snatching the Best Individual Award, Dao Feng’s position wavered. It was at that time he chose to retire, vanishing entirely from public view.

After his retirement, the world changed, becoming the era of the God of Slaughter, who replaced him as the new world number one. Moreover, super-first masters like Thunder God, Sharp Sword, and T.N.T rose one after another, heroes emerged, super-first masters followed.

In the martial arts tournament, the world’s top masters competed in numerous classic matches replayed repeatedly, but Dao Feng’s elegance was absent.

Miyamoto Musashi kidnapped several high-level members of top guilds from Hero’s Continent, including top ranks of Xuanyuan Clan. Huang Yi urged everyone to rescue them on the Land of Dongying, but Dao Feng was not among them.

The national war erupted, one super-first master after another formed legions to expand their ambitions, but Dao Feng remained in hiding, not joining the fray among the competing heroes.

Event after event occurred, but Dao Feng did not appear, and people finally accepted his departure.

A year later, halfway through this national war, Dao Feng emerged once more. But at this point, Dao Feng seemed ordinary, no longer the Dao Feng who led every global ranking. With his retirement, his edge subsided, no longer standing at the world’s peak. Among the first batch to ascend to the Heavenly Domain, his name was absent; among the world’s only five Heaven-Sent Heroes, he was not one; even his Xuanyuan Guild merged into the Hero Empire...

But now, in a fleeting moment, it seems as if he has returned, regaining his position as world number one!

And the cause of it all was his bizarre collision with Gentleman.

After that collision, Gentleman vanished, and Dao Feng returned.
