"Oh?" Man Tian took the potion from Miyamoto Musashi’s hand and examined it closely.
He instantly felt the boiling potion was filled with a mysterious power that even made him, a Celestial Realm Expert, quite tempted—it was undoubtedly an S-rank potion.
"What kind of potion is this?" Man Tian couldn’t help but ask. Even with his vast experience, he still couldn’t recognize all of the S-rank potions.
"This is an Attribute Exchange Potion! I only have this single bottle," Miyamoto Musashi said with a slight smile, explaining, "The Godslayer’s Heaven Domain Helper is a bit stronger than you. If he shows up, you can use this potion to swap attributes with him. That way, you will beco even more powerful than him. The swapped attributes will last for 1 hour, which is more than enough ti for you to kill the Godslayer. Of course, if the Godslayer fails to summon his Heaven Domain Helper in ti, killing him will be even easier for you—it will be as simple as lifting a finger."
"If this potion is really that miraculous, then I might as well set out imdiately to hunt him down, although I need to study this potion for a while to see if it is genuine. At the latest, I will set out to pursue him tomorrow," Man Tian said indifferently, nodding as he pocketed the potion.
Miyamoto Musashi felt greatly relieved and let out a slight sigh of relief, saying, "Considering how cunning the Godslayer is, he might use so special thods to hide. So, if you can’t find him, you can attack his Guild Territory, Dragon City—that’s their guild’s core. If you attack there, he will definitely co back to the rescue."
"There’s no need for you to teach that. Although he has advanced to the Holy Domain Rank, in my eyes, he’s only gone from being an ant to a mouse. If it weren’t for the fear of his Heaven Domain Helper, I would’ve already killed him back to Level 1." Man Tian spoke before turning around and striding away without paying any further attention to Miyamoto Musashi and his companion.
"Big brother, once Man Tian makes a move, that Godslayer is as good as dead! If he drops any Legendary Equipnt, he will stand even less chance against you, and the group competition championship will surely be ours," the Half-Beast Player said to Miyamoto Musashi, buttering him up with a gleeful smile.
"Is that so? I hope it turns out that way!" Miyamoto Musashi rely smiled lightly, not blindly believing it.
Until the truth ca out, he dared not jump to any more conclusions—Huang Yi had turned the tides in dire situations ti and ti again, proving himself an unpredictable individual.
...
By the ti Huang Yi logged in again, it was nightti, just a few hours away from the 1st of the next month. When that ti ca, his Godslayer’s Naming Attribute would automatically level him up from Level 113 to Level 114.
However, climbing any higher would be much harder. His next Demon Core was at Level 123, which was a full 9 levels away. If he were to level up through the normal thod of slaying monsters, it would take a considerably long ti.
Huang Yi went to grind levels at the Tower of Pantheons while waiting.
Finally, midnight passed!
At that mont, a warm surge flowed through Huang Yi, imdiately gaining him a level and bringing him up to Level 114!
This level was completely free, and from now on, on the 1st of every month, he would gain a level for free. In this respect, the Godslayer’s Naming Attribute was stronger than any other attribute. If he stuck around in The Second World for ten years, this attribute alone would level him up by 120 levels.
Soon, the cooldown period for the [Godslayer’s Mark] also ended!
He had set a Godslayer’s Mark near the Demon King’s Gate at the bottom of the Abyss last night, and now he could finally teleport back to it.
In an instant, Huang Yi vanished from Dragon City and returned to the depths of the Abyss.
The Demon King’s Gate stood silently in the marshland beside him. The damp wind, carrying the stench of decay, stirred the wild grasses in the swamp, creating a desolate scene.
Huang Yi stepped forward and placed his palm on the Demon King’s Gate, continuing to absorb the pure Dark Breath within.
Black wisps of smoke surged from the gate into Huang Yi’s body, which acted like a vortex, continuously drawing in the surrounding Dark Breath at a rapid pace. The speed of absorption was night and day compared to before reaching the Holy Domain and seed even easier since the gate had been left unstable after Man Tian’s attack.
However, this was akin to dancing on the blade of a knife. The Demon King’s Gate connected to the space where The Seven Archdemons resided. At any ti, Demonic Creatures such as Fallen ssengers, like Unbeaten, could erge—they all used this gate to travel to and from the Hero’s Continent. If discovered by them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Splash!" Just then, a sudden sound of movent ca from the distant mire, accompanied by splashing mud, as if sothing was burrowing towards him at high speed.
"Absolute Invisibility!" Huang Yi dared not be careless, and imdiately used the attached skill from the Legendary Cloak, Black Dragon’s Hide, instantly becoming invisible in the air, evading detection by ordinary stealth thods.
Soon, the unknown creature in the mud approached, splashing muddy water to the sides, and Huang Yi watched intently.
He saw that the creature in the mud was a giant water snake, slippery all over. It seed oblivious to Huang Yi’s presence, simply slithering past, just passing by.
Watching the water snake, Huang Yi gauged its strength to be around the Interdiate Holy Domain level, stronger than himself. If he were to kill it and absorb it into his War Soul, the boost would likely be quite significant. However, this water snake was a boss in the wild area, unlike those low-Intelligence bosses in the Tower of Pantheons that just recite lines, it would be very difficult to fight. Huang Yi was not confident that he could kill it.
Moreover, this was the Abyss, the most dangerous place on the continent, where Holy Domain Warriors, rarely seen elsewhere, could be spotted casually. Engaging in battle here might attract even more Holy Domain Warriors, complicating the situation. It was very possible that the water snake could be killed by another Holy Domain Warrior, foiling Huang Yi’s plan.
War Souls can only absorb creatures that one has captured or killed oneself, not the corpses of those slain by others. Otherwise, Huang Yi would have long gone to the morgue in Heroes’ Prison to absorb the corpses of strong enemies into War Souls.
After the water snake had gone so distance, Huang Yi finally revealed himself and continued to absorb the Dark Breath from the Demon King’s Gate. He felt the Power of the Nefalem within him growing hotter and more restless, stirring in every corner of his body, even causing his blood to boil. It seed the awakening process was nearing its final stage.
Thus, Huang Yi absorbed the Dark Breath while remaining vigilant of his surroundings, ready to use Absolute Invisibility to hide at a mont’s notice, without any mishaps for the ti being.
As he absorbed, the Dark Breath from the Demon King’s Gate decreased, but the Dark Breath within Huang Yi’s body grew denser. His skin gradually adorned with complex, intertwined black lines, resembling patterns of the universe’s starry trajectories. rely looking at them gave a sense of profound complexity, carrying within the Supre truth far surpassing any engravings and magic circles he had seen before.
Huang Yi surmised that the complete awakening of the Nefalem’s Bloodline would be marked by the completion of these patterns. By his judgnt, this process would take about one more day.
"Eh? Why has he co?" At that mont, Huang Yi was slightly alard!
He had suddenly sensed that Man Tian had arrived on the continent!
Since becoming the Continent Guardian of Hero’s Continent, Huang Yi had been monitoring Man Tian’s movents with the Guardian skill, Eye of Supervision. This was his greatest enemy to date, and this skill was exclusively used to track Man Tian, never shifted to another target. The mont Man Tian set foot on the continent, Huang Yi would be imdiately aware.
Man Tian’s arrival was not good news; he most likely ca to pursue Huang Yi, who also had tracking skills that could pinpoint his location!
Suddenly, the situation turned tense. Huang Yi needed at least one more day to fully absorb the Nefalem’s Bloodline, ample ti for Man Tian, a Celestial Realm Expert, to catch up to him!
However, soon Huang Yi realized that Man Tian was not heading toward the Abyss, but was strangely moving toward the northern part of the continent!
Almost instantly, a dreadful speculation crossed his mind—it was very likely that Man Tian intended to attack Dragon City, to draw Huang Yi out directly!
This thod was vicious; the monk can run but the temple can’t hide. Man Tian’s attack on Dragon City was the most impactful way to strike at Huang Yi! It would weaken his backing power and could just wait for Huang Yi to show up.
Taking a deep breath, Huang Yi focused on his Incarnation left in Dragon City. At this mont, his Incarnation was with Qin Shiyu at the top level of the Sky Garden, watching the stars.
"Xiao Yu, a disaster is about to strike—we must quickly instruct all mbers of the Hero Guild to evacuate Dragon City imdiately!" Huang Yi imdiately said to Qin Shiyu, who was lying in his arms, his voice profoundly stern.
"What disaster?" Qin Shiyu was a bit startled and quickly sat up from Huang Yi’s embrace to ask.
"Man Tian is coming!" Huang Yi took a deep breath, "Our Heavenly Curtain Barrier in Dragon City won’t hold for long. If Man Tian insists on attacking, the city will be reduced to ruins. It doesn’t matter if the city is destroyed; we have amassed countless fortunes recently, but we can’t afford to lose our people. That is the foundation of our Guild!"
"And you?" Qin Shiyu extended her arm, clasping Huang Yi’s hand, her beautiful eyes filled with concern as she looked at him.
"I’ll stay and face him," Huang Yi said, touching Qin Shiyu’s hair, and turned to look in the direction of Man Tian.
His gaze seed to penetrate the layers of distance, seeing the blood shadow rushing over mountains and rivers under the moonlight. (To be Continued.
