The principle of cultivating a Soldier of Annihilation lies in fusing players and NPCs together.
Players, also known as Heaven-Sent n, possess the greatest advantage: their rapid growth speed. As long as a Heaven-Sent Man is willing to engage in level grinding, they will inevitably ascend to the Heavenly Realm, and it only takes a few short years to grow from Level 1 to the Heavenly Domain Level.
This is unimaginable for NPCs. Despite the countless NPCs in The Second World, those who can ascend to the Heavenly Domain Level are as rare as phoenix feathers or unicorn horns. Furthermore, reaching the Heavenly Domain often takes a trendously long ti—decades, centuries, or even millennia for certain long-lived races—unless one is an extraordinarily talented genius.
For a player to beco a Soldier of Annihilation, they must forsake their player advantages and transform themselves into an existence similar to an NPC.
A Soldier of Annihilation is essentially the soul of a player rged with the body of an NPC. Among the Demon Clan, there are many advanced Heavenly Domain experts, and their bodies serve as the raw material for creating Soldiers of Annihilation. The King of Annihilation possesses a secret technique that can guide the soul of a player into the body of an advanced Heavenly Domain expert, allowing the player to instantly control the body and beco an advanced Heavenly Domain expert.
This thod bears striking similarity to Huang Yi’s technique for creating an Incarnation, but the process is far more challenging, and its power is significantly stronger. While Huang Yi’s Incarnations are weak regardless of the material used for their bodies, Soldiers of Annihilation are different. If their body material is advanced enough, their strength will correspondingly skyrocket. For instance, if a body of a top-level Heavenly Domain expert at Level 290 is used, the Soldier of Annihilation will also be Level 290.
However, the downside of Soldiers of Annihilation is exceedingly clear—they can never level up again in their lifeti! If a player becos a Soldier of Annihilation, their level will be eternally fixed, and no thod, even using Demon Cores, will allow them to advance. The only way to improve is to replace their body with a higher-level body, but this process is exceedingly difficult and requires the direct intervention of the King of Annihilation.
Thus, becoming a Soldier of Annihilation is akin to killing the hen that lays the golden eggs or forcing sprouts to grow prematurely. It trades future prospects for temporary strength. Moreover, after becoming a Soldier of Annihilation, players lose their player body, and although they boast high levels above Level 250, these levels are not gained through their own efforts and are excluded from leaderboard statistics.
The twelve Soldiers of Annihilation, including Unbeaten, were originally first-class experts. If they continued to grow, they had a certain chance of advancing to beco super-first-class masters. However, they understood that although the gap seed close, it was an enormous chasm that they might never be able to cross. Becoming Soldiers of Annihilation allowed them to montarily achieve the dream of being super-first-class masters.
Moreover, the Seven Archdemons are about to invade The Second World. Currently, the strength comparison between the two sides is highly imbalanced. If The Second World is occupied, all the remaining super-first-class masters will perish. At that ti, these Soldiers of Annihilation will face no player opponents, transforming from temporary super-first-class masters into permanent ones.
T.N.T, Miyamoto Musashi, and the Pope are the only three players who know of the existence of the Soldiers of Annihilation. Although they are super-first-class masters themselves, they have full confidence in the strength of the Soldiers of Annihilation. For instance, Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T are weaker than Soldiers of Annihilation, while the Pope—a powerful hero—only has a fifty-fifty chance against them. If faced against Unbeaten, the strongest Soldier of Annihilation, they might even lose.
This ti, T.N.T and the others’ greatest trump card for this all-out offensive is the Soldiers of Annihilation and the Fallen General, a Level 270 super master. Once these two trump cards are unleashed, this war will no longer have any suspense.
However, both the Soldiers of Annihilation and the Fallen General have crucial missions within the Demon Clan. They are beyond T.N.T’s authority to command and are difficult to summon. Only in utmost desperation would they consider deploying these two trump cards.
"Alright, our rear concern has been resolved. Break through the Heavenly Curtain Barrier and charge down to destroy them!" At this mont, T.N.T waved his hand dramatically, pulled out his magic wand, and launched a fierce fla to assault the Heavenly Curtain Barrier.
The other super-first-class masters also unleashed their respective attacks, pouring everything into striking the Heavenly Curtain Barrier, which promptly dimd once more.
"Big Brother God of Slaughter, what should we do now? Even Sharp Sword has lost its deterrence, and the Heavenly Curtain Barrier of this small island won’t hold for much longer!" The Sun Guild’s vice president, Tang Yunfei, turned to Huang Yi with a slightly anxious look.
"Don’t worry. I have several contingency plans. If push cos to shove, we might have to pay a price. Now, there are only twelve hours left until tomorrow, and all of my contingency plans are designed to stall until then." Huang Yi looked up toward the sky, pondering and weighing his options among these contingency plans.
Absolute despair is virtually impossible for Huang Yi to experience. No matter how dangerous the situation is, he always has backup plans. However, he is reluctant to use these contingency plans due to their high costs.
After a mont of thought, Huang Yi finally turned toward Dao Feng and said, "Dao Feng, you’ll have to take action later! Of all my contingency plans, this one has the least loss."
"No problem!" Dao Feng nodded slightly and smiled.
Although Huang Yi didn’t explicitly ntion the plan, Dao Feng knew exactly what thod Huang Yi was referring to—they had long developed an unspoken rapport.
"Take this; it should be very helpful to you." Huang Yi handed over a pill, its body a luminous yellow, translucent and shimring with a faint dicinal aroma.
This pill, known as an Experience Pill, is awarded for breaking the world record of surpassing the 100th floor of the World Tower of Gods. Using it could increase Experience Points by 50%!
"Thank you!" Dao Feng took the Experience Pill without hesitation and stored it in his storage ring.
"Sharp Sword gave this to ," Huang Yi said. Then he asked, "Now that you have this Experience Pill, how long do you need to prepare?"
Dao Feng calculated for a mont, then reported a ti: "Give ten minutes!"
"Alright!" Huang Yi responded decisively, waving his hand toward the group. "Now, we’re abandoning this Island 1. Everyone imdiately proceed to the Teleportation Circle and teleport to Sun Island. Sun Island’s Heavenly Curtain Barrier is stronger than Island 1’s and can hold out much longer."
Thus, Huang Yi swiftly grabbed Xiao Chunzi’s hand and flew toward the Teleportation Circle. The others followed suit, retreating en masse.
Throughout this process, nobody raised objections, demonstrating their absolute trust in Huang Yi.
The island they were currently on was rely Island 1 at the periphery of Sun Island, functioning as a forward outpost. It lacked significant facilities, so its loss to the invading army wouldn’t result in major setbacks.
Shortly thereafter, the group followed Huang Yi to the area containing the island’s Teleportation Circle and left the location, teleporting to the Sun Guild’s core—Sun Island.
However, to the others present, this retreat seed to carry a different aning. On the surface, it appeared that Huang Yi had exhausted all options and couldn’t find a way to counter the invading army’s eight super-first-class masters, thus resorting to retreat.
The reporters, however, refrained from jumping to conclusions. Instead, they rushed toward Sun Island, closely following in Huang Yi’s footsteps.
"Bang!~" Almost at the mont Huang Yi and his team teleported away from Island 1, the heavily damaged Heavenly Curtain Barrier finally crumbled under the assault of the invading army’s eight Heavenly Domain super-first-class masters.
The Hero Legion officially lost control of Island 1.
Next, the eight Heavenly Domain super-first-class experts wasted no ti, flying directly toward Sun Island. Their goal wasn’t to occupy the small Island 1 but to seize the core Sun Island.
At this mont, Huang Yi and his team had already arrived at Sun Island. This island had been carefully fortified by Thunder God, built like an impregnable fortress. Its Heavenly Curtain Barrier had been activated, and its strength continuously enhanced to far surpass that of Island 1. While still within the Heavenly Domain Level, it would take the eight invading Heavenly Domain super-first-class experts much longer to break through.
Soon, eight teors streaked across the sky, marking the arrival of the relentless pursuers—the eight invading Heavenly Domain super-first-class masters. Upon landing, they imdiately began attacking Sun Island’s Heavenly Curtain Barrier. Filled with residual rage, Fuchan Fenrao furiously attacked while shouting down below, "God of Slaughter, co out now!"
Her voice echoed throughout Sun Island, but Huang Yi paid no attention to her, patiently counting the ti instead.
"Alright!" At that mont, Dao Feng nodded slightly toward Huang Yi.
As his words fell, a streak of golden light suddenly shot up into the sky, radiating across the entire heavens!
The golden light transford into countless golden war blades, filling the entire sky with its breathtaking splendor, creating a magnificent Heavenly Phenonon.
"Another super-first-class master has ascended to the Heavenly Domain! Who is it?! There shouldn’t be any super-first-class masters at Level 199 nearby!" Countless murmurs arose, as they tried to determine the origin of this phenonon.
Huang Yi also looked up at the expansive Heavenly Phenonon. The individual who had ascended this ti was Dao Feng’s Divine Embryo—Gentleman.
Gentleman was already very close to the Heavenly Domain Level but had lowered his apparent level, leading others to believe he was only Level 195. This discrepancy caused people to overlook Gentleman, a super-first-class master.
Now that Gentleman had ascended to the Heavenly Domain, he dispelled one of Huang Yi’s suspicions.
Previously, Huang Yi speculated about the origins of Sharp Sword, whose ascension to the Heavenly Domain didn’t trigger a Heavenly Phenonon. This led him to consider whether Sharp Sword might have been soone else’s Divine Embryo.
With Gentleman’s ascension cos a Heavenly Phenonon, verifying that Divine Embryos trigger such phenona when reaching the Heavenly Domain. Thus, Sharp Sword can now be ruled out as a Divine Embryo. The absence of a Heavenly Phenonon during his ascension to the Heavenly Domain likely stems from another reason.
