The majestic voice of the King of Hell reverberated through the heavens and earth, echoing back and forth in the valley, bringing an imnse sense of oppression.
Georgia’s stunningly beautiful face turned incomparably stern as she looked up at the sky and said, "You’re rely an incomplete incarnation that hasn’t fully matured yet. Saying such words—don’t you find it overly arrogant?" Finishing her words, her powerful demigod aura radiated outward, its overwhelming presence surging like billowing smoke straight to the skies, rivaling the grandeur of the Divine Artifact, Cui Guang.
At her side, Huang Yi instantly felt an unparalleled pressure emanate from Georgia, crushing down on him! He and Little Dragon were completely unable to withstand this oppressive force. They couldn’t even maintain flight and plumted helplessly toward the ground. Little Dragon flapped its wings repeatedly, barely managing to land safely without crashing to death.
"You’ve just finished forging your Divine Artifact; your power is currently at its weakest. If you want to deal with , isn’t that idea way too arrogant?" At that mont, the King of Hell seed to sense Georgia’s overwhelming war intent, mimicking her tone as he posed a rhetorical question in return.
As his voice fell, the entire sky suddenly turned incomparably dim. Large swaths of black Demon Cloud spread across the heavens, blocking out the sun. Day transford abruptly into night. Those black clouds churned incessantly, as if sothing within was stirring, disrupting the natural order.
The King of Hell still hadn’t revealed himself, yet he had already triggered such a heavenly phenonon. His thods were utterly enigmatic, far beyond what Huang Yi could fathom.
"Roar!" In the next mont, Georgia’s body trembled and began to expand rapidly. Enormous wings sprouted from her back as she transford into a colossal and awe-inspiring Giant Dragon!
This dragon’s body was absurdly large; when its wings spread open, it practically covered the entire mountain, obscuring the sky and blotting out the sun. Each piece of dragon scale on her body was as big as a door panel, resplendent in dazzling multicolored hues. Each scale seed ticulously crafted like a work of art, densely covering her entire dragon form in breathtaking magnificence.
This was undeniably Georgia’s true form—the Holy Giant Dragon!
Her body, though incomparably massive, was neither bulky nor cumberso. It exuded elegance and grandeur, with flawless proportions, simultaneously embodying both strength and beauty.
In the next instant, Georgia surged toward the roiling black clouds in the sky, like a mountain crashing upward into the firmant!
Her enormous wings flapped with each motion, stirring up extrely powerful gales that uprooted trees in the forest below, sending them flying in chaos. The air beca muddled and indistinct!
Huang Yi and Little Dragon were also swept away, tumbling through the air like kites with broken strings, utterly at the rcy of the storm!
Despite being far stronger than other Advanced Holy Domain experts of the sa level, Huang Yi couldn’t even endure the storms generated by a single flap of Georgia’s wings! This showcased the boundless strength Georgia possessed as a demigod.
And yet, as powerful as she was, she was exerting herself rely to deal with an incomplete incarnation of the King of Hell, whose strength was beyond imagination!
In almost no ti at all, Georgia had vanished into the dark clouds high above, her massive figure completely obscured from sight. The storm she caused gradually began to subside.
Huang Yi looked up, trying to see, but all he could see were endless black clouds churning violently. The epic battle between demigods remained entirely shrouded in mystery.
If such a level of combat were to take place on land, no matter how vast the terrain, it would not be able to withstand the destruction. During the war of the Recent Ancients, two continents had shattered into over two hundred pieces because of the Seven Archdemons’ battles.
Huang Yi gazed up for a while, but was unable to see Georgia and the King of Hell’s battle. At such a high level, their movents could traverse thousands of miles in an instant—there was no telling where their battle had taken them.
Huang Yi mounted Little Dragon and returned to the house where Gibit was stationed, patiently waiting.
...
anwhile, in another Hero Trial Secret Realm, a player was looking up at the sky. However, the sky above him was bathed in brilliant sunlight, and his smile was as radiant as the sun.
Because he had just received a System Prompt: his Hero Trial was complete!
This player, around thirty years of age, had a burly fra and a full beard, a typical Western brute. Yet, he was wearing a cyan Mage Robe, astonishingly a fragile Mage Class.
This man was none other than Eiffel—the Super-First Master fad alongside the Pope!
Eiffel was the strongest player in France and rivaled TNT across Europe. He was one of the top ten finalists for the Best Individual Prize at the third annual event.
His profession was Wind Mage, belonging to the rare Magic Elent Series akin to the Pope’s Thunder attributes.
Eiffel was also the only player in Europe to have received a Na Bestowing—a prestigious honor even TNT hadn’t attained. His bestowed na was Mage Emperor, which in Chinese carried dual aning: it signified he was the emperor of mages, and concurrently the emperor among French players.
Two months ago, Eiffel had begun his Hero Trial, far ahead of Huang Yi. During this ti, he’d sacrificed much of his level grinding, leaving him at only Level 177—far below other Super First-Class masters. Nevertheless, his efforts had been relentless, enduring nurous failures since he lacked Hero’s Command, which could ease the trial’s difficulty. Only now had he finally succeeded!
In the next mont, he was teleported out.
Half an hour later, Eiffel finally claid one of the remaining two Heroic Aura essences at the Oskan Royal Academy and absorbed it into himself.
The heavens roared with the announcent—
"[System Announcent]: [Mage Emperor] has passed the Hero Trial and beco a Heaven-Sent Hero."
Another hero had been born!
This marked the fifth Heaven-Sent Hero since Dragon Emperor, Sword Emperor, Pope, and Dongfeng!
The announcent highlighted that Eiffel had succeeded purely through the trial itself, unlike the Pope and Dongfeng who had used alternative thods to attain hero status.
At this mont, Huang Yi’s incarnation was at the top level of Dragon City’s City Hall with Qin Shiyu. Hearing the announcent, Huang Yi’s heart tightened!
On his first day undertaking the Hero Trial, a ntor had ntioned that the Oskan Royal Academy only had three Heroic Aura essences remaining, yet there were four competitors vying for them.
Later, Sharp Sword had successfully completed the trial and beco a hero. Now Eiffel had done the sa, which ant there was only one essence left!
And the remaining two contestants were Huang Yi and the mysterious man in black robes and a hat he had first seen in the Hero Hall.
"Brother Yi, what’s the matter? Is there a problem with the announcent?" Qin Shiyu noticed Huang Yi’s dark expression and instinctively placed her hand on his cheek.
"It’s nothing. It’s just that my Hero Trial might get a bit troubleso." Huang Yi clasped Qin Shiyu’s hand and shook his head slightly.
"Don’t worry," Qin Shiyu softly consoled him. "You’ve never experienced failure since entering The Second World. Even the strongest must face failure sotis! If you don’t succeed this ti, you can still follow the path of the Pope and Dongfeng to beco a hero through other ans."
Huang Yi nodded and sighed, "You’re right, but I still feel sowhat unwilling. With Hero’s Command, passing the trial allows to level up by 20 levels instantly! The Pope and Dongfeng’s alternative thod doesn’t co with a level increase."
"Twenty levels at once!" Qin Shiyu gasped at the benefit, exclaiming, "I can’t even imagine how many levels you’ll reach after Reincarnation ends. Your accumulated experience points are already incredibly high, and adding another twenty levels—it’s unbelievable!"
"We’ll find out soon enough. I’ll strive to complete this Hero Trial before Reincarnation ends." Turning toward the window, Huang Yi gazed into the distant sky.
On another part of Hero’s Continent, the Pope, TNT, and Miyamoto Musashi were in Red Cliffs City, the most critical stronghold under siege by the Invading Army, discussing Eiffel’s achievent.
"Good! Excellent! Mage Emperor has beco a hero. If he acquires Demon Core in the next few days, he can ascend to the Heavenly Realm quickly, then return to Hero’s Continent to participate in the national war. With two Heavenly Domain heroes on our side, our chances of victory just increased again," Miyamoto Musashi remarked with a faint smile of approval.
TNT nodded in agreent, saying, "Soul is also undertaking the Hero Trial right now. I called him yesterday, and he ntioned he possesses Hero’s Command, which lowers the trial’s difficulty. He should complete it soon. Once he ascends as a hero, we’ll have three Heavenly Domain heroes on our side! Even if God of Slaughter finishes reincarnation, we’ll still defeat them."
"Do not underestimate God of Slaughter," the Pope cautioned, shaking his head. "We’d be wise to finish this war before his reincarnation ends. I’ve just received word that next Friday, God of Slaughter, Dragon Spike, Dao Feng, and Yang Yuheng—the four key leaders of the Hero Legion—will simultaneously mobilize their forces to siege Red Cliffs City. It’s an ideal opportunity for us to send in Fallen General and eliminate them all in one fell swoop. The system has a major judgnt chanic: if we can eliminate all their essential figures, our chances of winning will dramatically increase."
"Next Friday?" Miyamoto Musashi murmured thoughtfully. "By then, God of Slaughter will probably hit around Level 168, with about one final week left before reincarnation ends. The timing should work." His expression brightened with anticipation. "To watch as he faces his country’s defeat in the final monts of his reincarnation—this will surely bring him imnse agony!"
"Yes, he is destined for suffering!" TNT chuckled darkly, his deanor chilling. "At that ti, we’ll have all eight Super-First Masters ascended to the Heavenly Realm, each greatly strengthened. Plus, with Eiffel and Soul as Heavenly Domain heroes, Unbeaten and those Soldiers of Annihilation, Fallen General as our ultimate powerhouse, and the Demon Clan’s newest wave of vanguard... We’ll unleash everything in this decisive battle! I don’t believe the Hero Legion can withstand us!"
