Heroes' Prison
Chapter 1733 - 1656: The Truth Behind the Plot! Heavenly Demon and Ling Demon Outwitted! (Part 2)
However, in front of the King of Hell, he couldn’t escape either, so he had to protect himself, running through all possible situations in his mind.
The Spirit Demon was caught by the King of Hell, so the Blade of Agony was sure to be retrieved by the King of Hell.
Miyamoto Musashi had stayed with the Demon Clan for so long, he was well aware of the downgrading effect of that magical instrument. That effect was not unbreakable; besides a time-reversal ability like Sea Changes into Mulberry Fields, there were other solutions, and taking a potion in advance was one such method.
For Miyamoto Musashi, crafting such a potion was not an issue.
Originally, this plan was perfect, but he did not anticipate one variable—Huang Yi.
After Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T. joined the side of The Second World, Huang Yi did not completely trust them and had the Freedom Organization closely monitor them.
The deposit for the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon was transferred to Miyamoto Musashi through a bank, and this transaction was tracked by the Freedom Organization.
This clearly indicated that the Heavenly Demon, Spirit Demon, and Miyamoto Musashi had some undisclosed secret.
Later, Miyamoto Musashi requested Huang Yi to allow him to enter the Demon Race Microcosm on the day of the Demon Race Lair’s eradication. He claimed to be very familiar with the Demon Race Microcosm and could act as a team guide, hoping this would convince Huang Yi.
Unexpectedly, Huang Yi refused him, giving him no chance.
Huang Yi knew he had an undisclosed secret with the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon, so naturally, he wouldn’t let them meet.
Miyamoto Musashi’s plan was completely obstructed by Huang Yi at this point.
In the end, with no other choice, he had to disclose his entire plan to Huang Yi, revealing everything.
The Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon were crucial figures in the Demon Clan; to deal with them completely was extremely difficult. If Miyamoto Musashi did not go in, the two would not defect from the Demon Clan but remain to continue strengthening the Demon Clan’s power.
Huang Yi did not want to let the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon go, because compared to Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T., their crimes were deeper. Besides killing Deputy Dean Divine Marksman Ica, they had repeatedly posed major threats to The Second World.
Especially the Spirit Demon, who once used a Soul Plague to poison billions of online players worldwide. Such a person must not be let go.
Meanwhile, the misdeeds of Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T. were mostly concentrated during national wars. They colluded with the Demon Clan to win the national war, which was qualitatively different from the acts of the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon.
Moreover, before defecting from the Demon Clan, Miyamoto Musashi and T.N.T. had killed the King of Curses, which was a significant achievement.
After some comprehensive consideration, Huang Yi decided to go with the flow and let Miyamoto Musashi execute the plan, using the King of Hell’s hand to completely resolve the two of them.
However, he demanded Miyamoto Musashi prepare more potions so that every super first-class master who entered the microcosm could be fully prepared, avoiding being killed to level 1 after the King of Hell retrieved the Blade of Agony. After all, the Blade of Agony in the hands of the Spirit Demon and in the hands of the King of Hell represented two entirely different concepts.
However, Huang Yi himself did not use that potion because he had the Dragon Emperor’s Physique, unaffected by the downgrading effect of the Blade of Agony.
Miyamoto Musashi readily agreed to this condition, as crafting such potions was not too troublesome for him.
Later, when it came time to make plans, everyone drew up a list of personnel entering the microcosm, and Huang Yi publicly included Miyamoto Musashi’s name, which was met with firm opposition from Thunder God and many other super-first masters.
But Huang Yi persisted in his decision, and many did not understand why he did so. He also avoided explaining in detail to prevent it from leaking to the Spirit Demon and Heavenly Demon in advance, resulting in a failed plan.
Now, Miyamoto Musashi’s plan had succeeded, the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon had been completely dealt with, and he had proven that he hadn’t betrayed Huang Yi’s trust.
At this moment, Miyamoto Musashi mocked: "Actually, I’ve long been irked by the Spirit Demon and Heavenly Demon. When T.N.T. and I were valued by the King of Hell, they had no idea where they were. We never dared to openly flaunt the Demon Clan’s banner with arrogance; we always secretly facilitated their actions. But those two idiots, once they became the New King, they thought they were invincible, showing off everywhere, truly believing they could suppress me and T.N.T. They don’t understand that any benefits from the Demon Clan come with a price. The Pope saw it clearly from the start of the national war. T.N.T. and I tried our best to invite him to join the Demon Clan, but he never agreed."
Huang Yi nodded: "You’ve proven yourself, I won’t make things difficult for you anymore."
"Our enmity largely stems from the time of the national wars; back then, we did it for the honor of our respective motherlands. Now that the world is unified, even National Honor Points have been canceled, and those previous conflicts hold no meaning. Now, my enemy is the Demon Clan; they won’t die, Fire God and I will continue to be hunted by them. You don’t need to doubt our sincerity," said Miyamoto Musashi.
"[System Prompt]: [Dark Night Xiaotao] has lost all Health Points. As you are the New Generation of Grim Reaper and control the Rule of Death, do you consent to their death?"
"[System Prompt]: [Zang Yue] has lost all Health Points. As you are the New Generation of Grim Reaper and control the Rule of Death, do you consent to their death?"
At this moment, Huang Yi began to frequently receive messages of people killed in action, he denied all of their deaths.
At the same time, all the killed players were put into a Treasure Bag and kept in the same room with him.
"Let’s wait here for a bit, gather more people, then we’ll go out together," Huang Yi said, turning around and surveying the crowd.
...
Currently, the top experts who entered the microcosm were slaughtering and wreaking havoc everywhere.
This group of unparalleled powerhouses, each was equivalent to a BOSS, able to cause a catastrophe in a single region by themselves.
The Demon Clan’s corners all erupted in chaos, invasions occurring everywhere, deaths everywhere, needing rescue everywhere.
Coupled with the relentless attacks from over 5,000 Divine Domain powerhouses outside, the microcosm suddenly turned into an apocalyptic scene.
However, with the King of Hell striking again, the chaos on each planet was gradually being suppressed.
Within the microcosm, the King of Hell could break out multiple avatars, exceeding the power limits of the Mortal Realm, simultaneously attacking everywhere.
Having just slain the Heavenly Demon and Spirit Demon was merely one of his avatars, while others were dealing with various super first-class masters.
"Boom!" Inside Hell Star, one punch from the King of Hell’s avatar caused the severely wounded avatar of the War Maniac to explode.
This marked the third fallen Mortal God avatar!
"Go in!" In the Star of Corruption, with a hammer, the King of Hell’s avatar smashed Fuchan Fenrao to empty health, then put them into the Treasure Bag.
She was the eighth player to be placed in the Treasure Bag.
Now, that batch of top experts who entered the Demon Race Microcosm were accelerating their demise.
Yet under the lead of Dao Feng, Thunder God, the Pope, Giant Bear, Pharaoh, Dragon Spike, among the strongest super first-class masters, and three Supreme Dragon Emperors, they all remained untouched. They were on Dark Star, besieging an important figure—
The Dark King!
The Dark King, currently the weakest among the remaining four Great Demon Kings of the Demon Clan, after the previous successive declines, his current power was less than half of his peak.
Conversely, those besieging him like Dao Feng belonged to a group of Heaven-Sent Men with complete Divine Artifacts, Divine Demon Reincarnation Power, and various means in full bloom.
Others were dispersed across other planets, restraining the various avatars of the King of Hell, buying time for their encirclement of the Dark King.
"Hurry up, one of the King of Hell’s avatars is coming, I’ll hold him off!" At this point, Supreme Holy Dragon urged, immediately swinging the Dragon Tail, speeding towards a direction.
"You ants, don’t dream of killing me!" From within the light of everyone’s attacks came the roar of the Dark King.
But his roar was already hollow and weak.
