Hail the King Chapter 452

Chapter 452: Change in the Nightmare Mode (Part One)

An unprecedented energy appeared in the deepest part of Fei's soul. Compared with the golden liquid droplets and the two clouds of golden mist, this energy was thicker and more powerful. It even had a faint spirit and flowed around Fei intimately as if it was his lover. To Fei, this energy wasn't unfamiliar; he had interacted with this energy before.

"Those two clouds of golden mist are the essences of Ancient Talic and Korlic after I defeated them on the summit of Mount Arreat in the Normal Mode. I thought they only contained the understanding that the Ancients had towards skill [Whirlwind] and [Leap Attack], but it seems like I was wrong. They seem like two seeds, and they are the catalyst to the body transformation that I experienced just now. No wonder I had to battle those Barbarian Ancients; at the time, I was wondering why I, a Barbarian, had to battle my ancestors. This must be the reason! It is an indirect way of power inheritance. Only the Barbarians who could defeat the Ancients could inherit the G.o.d-tier techniques of the Barbarian Clan."

Many thoughts flashed in Fei's head.

"Except for the energy from the two Ancients and the 50 drops of the golden liquid…… this intimate sensation…… it is from Angela!" Fei was shocked.

He was already concerned about this when Angela fainted; there were too many secrets on her, and she didn't even know about them! Her ability to communicate with Demon Beasts and command them, the purest soul, and how she summoned a higher power to heal Fei yesterday in battle…… Fei had no idea where he should start.

"This sensation is not hostile at all! It feels like it is going to work together with the other two powers to push my body onto another level!"

After sensing that, Fei opened his body to those energies without any hesitation.

Time pa.s.sed by quickly yet slowly. Everything around Fei was frozen in time, yet, Fei was able to sense the river of time flowing through his body rapidly. As if he was watching a game of chess, he felt like he was watching time pa.s.sing by him as an outsider, and he wasn't affected by it at all.

After G.o.d knows how long, that beam of golden light finally disappeared.

Fei's body returned to normal, and the screams and roars of monsters sounded beside him. Also, the evil energy wrapped around his body again. He was standing in front of the entrance to [The Den of Devil] on the [Blood Boor] outside of [Rogue Encampment], and he felt like he was dreaming a moment ago.

Fei stretched his body, and he felt a lot of power.

The King felt like he was hallucinating; he felt like he could punch a hole in the sky, create numerous cracks in the ground using his feet, and blow mountains away using his breath.

The world in front of him was clearer as if he changed an old black-and-white television to the most advanced 4K television. It was strange; Fei felt like this world slowly opened up its arms towards him. A lot of things and incidents he couldn't understand before were slowly revealing themselves in front of him, and he could get to the truth as long as he was willing to dig.

Two dark-red b.u.t.tons appeared in his peripherals; one was [Character Status], and the other one was [Skill Tree]. Fei was extremely familiar with the two already.

He leveled up.

"The Barbarian Character is already level 99, and that should be the highest level there is. If I continue to level up, would I reach level 100? What would happen if I reach level 100?"

Fei thought about that as he opened up the status panel of the Barbarian.

He looked at it and froze.

"Name: Fei. Level: Nightmare Mode level 1. Strength: 30, Vitality: 20, Dexterity: 25, Energy: 10. Fire Resistance: 0, Cold Resistance: 0, Lightning Resistance: 0, Poison Resistance: 0. Residual attribute points: 5……"

Also, as a side discovery, Fei realized that the words on the status panel turned silver in the Nightmare Mode.

Chapter 452: Change in the Nightmare Mode (Part Two)

"What is going on? All of my statistics got cleared? How did this happen?"

Fei was shocked. If everything got cleared, then his hard work since he came to this world would be wasted.

"But I still sense a ton of power in my body, and this power is even mightier than before?"

Fei closed this digital panel and started to sense the power in his body carefully. He summoned [Bul-Kathos' Children] and used his most powerful technique, [Whirlwind]. A dash of silver sword energy rushed forward, and it dug out a trail that was more than ten meters deep on the ground. The dominant sensation dispersed into the area, and silver mists flowed in the air.

"Although my levels and statistics are gone, the power and energy are still in my body. In fact, they got even stronger!"

All of Fei's worries disappeared after he made this discovery.

"If I'm not wrong, my power underwent a change in quality after I entered the Nightmare Mode. Before, my strength took on the form of transparent crystal when it left my body, now……" as Fei thought about that, he used Sky Frost Fist and punched out fiercely. Instantly, a silver fist mark that was the size of one cubic meter appeared and dashed into the sky.

This proved Fei's hypothesis. After his power leveled up, the color of it changed as well.

The silver energy was a form of energy that was more than 100 times more powerful than the transparent crystal energy.

"Haha! What a surprise! Since my power level changed, then I should change the name of this technique. From now on, Sky Frost Fist will be changed to……" Fei thought about it in a good mood and came up with a cool name. He laughed and said to himself, "It will be called Invincible Emperor Fist!"

This name somewhat reflected Fei's ambition. Since it was called Emperor Fist, it showed Fei's desire to be a great ruler, and it implicitly went against Emperor Ya.s.sin's legendary technique - Dragon Fist.

Currently, Fei's technique was still being perfected and refined, and it couldn't match against the legendary Dragon Fist. However, Fei believed that Invincible Emperor Fist would one day become a legend as well.

"Ya.s.sin is not inferior to any other! Such a heroic declaration!"

After thinking back to Ya.s.sin's famous phrase, Fei was incredibly moved by it. Emperor Ya.s.sin's fists defeated a ton of masters, and anyone who thought about that scene would feel like their blood was boiling.

After he calmed himself down, Fei opened up the panel that indicated his status. After giving it some thoughts, he put all five new attribute points into [Strength]. After going through the Normal Mode, Fei had new plans in his head regarding the directions of each of the characters. Since he could use all seven characters as he wished, he didn't need to consider balancing a character, and he could try his best to emphasize the advantages of each character. As for his Barbarian Character, the invincible physical strength was the advantage it had.

On the other hand, Fei reserved the skill point he got from this level up, and he didn't add it onto his skill tree.

As he stepped into [The Den of Evil] and started the first quest in the Nightmare Mode, Fei was a level 1 Barbarian.

Although the strength of the monsters increased dramatically, Fei also underwent the mystic change as well. In addition, he had completed this quest in the Normal Mode, and he knew where to go; in fact, he could go around [The Den of Evil] with his eye closed. In less than 20 minutes, Fei killed all the monsters in the den, and he got more than 70 drops of the golden liquid in his body.

After he left the den, he killed a few more monsters. When he got 80 drops of the golden liquid, he leveled up again.

As a beam of the golden light dashed down from the sky, the 80 drops of the golden liquid turned into a warm current and merged with all the cells in Fei's body. After Fei's combat ability increased again, he put all of the five attribute points into [Strength], and he didn't touch the skill point.
