Chapter 1743: King of Darkness (1/2)

Even after ten days and nights, Huang Xiaolong had yet to subdue the first beast!

If not for the Heart of Hell, providing him with endless darkness energy, the beast’s body’s tyrannical energy would have devoured Huang Xiaolong. His three king of supreme godheads would be useless against the beast’s fearsome strength!

He was able to persevere for such a long time because the chains were holding the beasts back, and the runes of the Heavenly Hall were suppressing them simultaneously.

Huang Xiaolong took a deep breath and increased the speed at which he circulated the Grandmist Parasitic Medium. As grandmist energy surged into the beast’s body, the grandmist worm managed to break through its defenses layer by layer.

Just like that, one entire month passed.

As a soft tearing sound entered his ears, an expression of joy filled Huang Xiaolong’s face. The grandmist worm had finally torn through the mental defenses of the beast!

After breaking through the beast’s godhead’s final mental barrier, it started fusing with its divine soul.

As the fusion process began, the beasts roared and thrashed about, seemingly trying to shake Huang Xiaolong off.

When Huang Xiaolong touched his forehead, it was filled with beads of cold sweat.

He was finally about to subdue the first of the four beasts!

However, there was another problem once he managed to subdue them. The chains restraining them weren't made from ordinary chaos metal. He was afraid that even ordinary grandmist artifacts would be unable to smash the chains apart. After solving the problem with the chains, came the problem with the runes carved on it. The runes that were able to suppress the godforce and willpower of an existence at the peak of the late-Tenth Order Emperor Realm wasn’t something he could deal with as he liked.

Huang Xiaolong thought about it for a moment and decided to bring out the City of Eternity once again. He wanted to use all of its might to smash against the chains.

At the moment of impact, the runes released blinding light that illuminated the entire palace. Even the space outside the palace turned as bright as day.

Of course, the chains and runes inscribed on it didn’t break after a single bombardment from the City of Eternity.

Once again, the City of Eternity launched itself at it.

The sound of rattling chains echoed through the air non-stop.

After tens of times, the sound of shattering could finally be heard. The chains snapped, and the runes on it dimmed.

With a wave of the beast’s thick arm, it tore the chains off the pillars. As its body shook, the chains that had bound it for an eternity turned into dust.

He walked towards Huang Xiaolong and greeted in a deep voice, “Master.”

Huang Xiaolong nodded his head, and a trace of a smile appeared on his face.

After Huang Xiaolong accepted the beast’s greeting, he looked at the second beast.

Stabilizing his breathing, Huang Xiaolong repeated his actions as he circulated the Grandmist Parasitic Medium.

Despite the experience of subduing the first beast, Huang Xiaolong needed another month to control the second beast fully.

After four months, Huang Xiaolong managed to subdue all four beasts!

As he heaved a sigh of relief, he slumped to the ground without caring for his image. He was just too d*mn tired!

After taking out a grandmist spiritual pill, Huang Xiaolong swallowed it without the slightest hesitation. When he felt the effects of the spiritual pill, he finally felt a little better.

When he finally regained his godforce, Huang Xiaolong stood up and looked all around. Stopping to think about some matters, he finally decided to head to the gate located in the main hall.

Sending the four odd beasts to guard the palace, he entered the gate alone.

The moment he stepped through the gate, endless darkness assaulted Huang Xiaolong.

The boundless dark space contained the energy of darkness as it tried to corrode Huang Xiaolong’s body.
