Chapter 555 Chapter 555 Spoils of War

On the shards of the secret realm, Chen Hengs eyes were focused on the front. The corpse of the Twilight Knight was placed before him and had already become a dried corpse.

Chen Heng silently sighed in his heart. From the bottom of his heart, there was no doubt that the Twilight Knight was powerful. That powerful strength was terrifying and left a deep impression on Chen Heng.

The Twilight Knight had even surpa.s.sed a king and reached a higher level at the last moment. Even though that was the power that he had sacrificed everything in exchange for, it had left a deep impression on Chen Heng and was not to be underestimated. But even so, it was over.

The Twilight Knights strength was indeed powerful, far surpa.s.sing Chen Hengs at this moment. However, Chen Heng had a new understanding of this point. Sometimes, it did not mean one could win just because he was stronger.

Ive lost a p.a.w.n Chen Heng looked at the Twilight Knights corpse with a self-deprecating expression while struggling to get up from the ground.

w.a.n.g Zhong had already died under the attack of the Twilight Knight. Chen Heng had transferred most of his injuries to w.a.n.g Zhong in that split second, making him the scapegoat. w.a.n.g Zhong must have been in despair before his death.

Still, that was not bad. The slaughter divinity in his body was planted by Chen Heng. With his original talent, it was already pretty good for him to be able to reach the fourth rank and awaken his true spirit in the Qika Federation, not to mention being valued by the Five Knights of the Round Table. However, up until now, he had forcefully reached close to the sixth rank with the help of the slaughter divinity. The slaughter divinity had given him such a huge help, allowing him to enjoy it for such a long time. It was time for him to pay the price for this.

The only pity was that w.a.n.g Zhong was quite useful as a tool man and played a significant role over these years. If w.a.n.g Zhong did not help Chen Heng collect the slaughter power, Chen Heng would not have been able to recover so quickly. Chen Heng was a little unwilling now that this tool man had died.

However, it did not matter. Chen Heng was close to being invincible in this world. w.a.n.g Zhong was most likely not needed in the future. It was great for him to display his final value in this battle. Various thoughts flashed through Chen Hengs mind, then he silently turned around and looked into the distance.

The powerhouses originally belonged to the Round Table were standing in the surroundings, lurking in the dark and spying on the situation. They used all sorts of methods to spy on this place. However, their expressions changed drastically, revealing disbelief after seeing the Twilight Knights corpse and Chen Heng alive, How is this possible? Even a terrifying attack couldnt completely wipe out the King of Stars? Lord Twilight lost? Waves of sounds sounded in all directions. Countless people lost their expressions and were in disbelief when they saw Chen Heng.

The Twilight Knights last attack just now was a power they had never seen before. Even the so-called king would most likely not be able to protect himself before that attack and would die because of it. After all, the Twilight Knight was a king himself. No one could imagine how powerful the Twilight Knights final attack would be at the cost of his life.

However, Chen Heng still managed to block such a terrifying attack and was still alive. This was an unbelievable thing.

Could the King of Stars be a monster? This thought flashed through the peoples minds, and they could not help but feel complicated emotions looking at the corpse beside Chen Heng. With Chen Hengs appearance, no one had any other thoughts at this moment. If there were still people who wanted to be loyal to the Round Table and make a move against Lu Yao before this, there was no longer anyone now. Because Chen Heng looked like his body was covered in terrifying wounds. It was as if he had been pierced through, extremely horrifying

However, no matter what, he was still alive. And for such an existence, as long as he was still alive, he would be invincible to those below the level of a king. Those below the sixth rank are not even qualified to bear his aura.

There was no shortage of loyal officials of the Round Table here, but they wouldnt seek death since they had practiced to this point.

Brother! A shout came from afar, and Chen Heng looked not far away.

Red spread its wings and rushed over with Lu Yao, who ran straight into Chen Hengs arms. Her eyes were red, and she sounded like she was crying

Are you alright? She looked at Chen Heng and looked at his chest, almost pierced through.

Im alright. A gentle smile appeared on Chen Hengs face, and he reached out and touched Lu Yaos forehead as if he was comforting a child, Im still alive. He spoke softly, with a sense of calmness.

Chen Hengs power was slowly recovering at this moment. Stars were flickering in the surroundings, and wisps of divine power rushed toward Chen Hengs body and were finally swallowed by Chen Heng in one gulp.

Considerable power rose like a tidal wave, leading to the surrounding violent energy. Chen Hengs body was recovering. He instinctively swallowed the energy in the surroundings to heal his body. With the strength at his level, his body was terrifying.

The energy comparable to several stars was swallowed by him and melted into his body in just a few gulps. His body began to recover as all of this went on. A large number of wounds healed, and he recovered.

Finally, he opened his eyes again, and a powerful aura emitted from his body, sweeping across the galaxy. The surrounding powerhouses observing this place felt their hearts tremble and terrified.

Ive managed to maintain a little bit of prowess Chen Heng sighed softly and thought as he felt his condition.

The Twilight Knights attack just now was indeed highly terrifying. Chen Heng had already used up all of w.a.n.g Zhongs killing power on himself, but he was still unable to recover from his injuries. He could only barely maintain some prowess.

Most of the slaughter power had been used to resist the Twilight Knights last attack, so there was little remaining power. It would take a long time to recover to its peak. However, it did not matter.

The Twilight Knight had already fallen. The collapse of the Round Table was inevitable. Chen Heng would not need to continue to attack for a long time if nothing unexpected happened. Hence, he had a lot of time to recover.

Then, spiritual lights surged and shrouded his entire body. Then, he looked to the side. Not far away, the Twilight Knights corpse was still lying there quietly. His previous appearance could no longer be seen. He was as calm as a dried corpse.

A dried corpse Chen Hengs heart was somewhat complicated when looking at the Twilight Knights corpse.

The all-powerful powerhouse who had ruled an era had fallen in such a manner. The pa.s.sage of time had destroyed everything. The former powerful man might not always be like this, and the overlord of today would eventually wither one day. Who knew if he would one day end up like the Twilight Knight before him?

Chen Heng did not know, nor did he care. To him, where and how he would die in the future was not significant. As long as he had a temporary life, he would continue walking until the end of time and could no longer move forward. All sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind.

In the end, he waved his hand and accepted the Twilight Knights corpse. Even if the Twilight Knight died, his corpse still contained a considerable value as a king-level existence. It was a huge treasure trove and could be used for various purposes. Even for a king-level existence, such an existence was not easy to obtain. It was often something that could be encountered but not sought. However, for Chen Heng, he had already gotten two king-level corpses during this trip. It was a huge harvest.

After keeping the corpses, Chen Heng brought Lu Yao and turned around, arriving at another place. During the previous battle, the secret realms divine land had been destroyed, turning into countless shards scattered in the galaxy. Pieces of the divine land scattered like tiny stars, reflecting a faint glow in the sky. It was stunning

Chen Heng walked into it and soon found his target. That was the core of the divine land from before and where the Twilight Knight slept. A pool of life pond water emitted a strong aura of life and stood quietly by the side. The exuberant vitality made ones heart palpitate.

On the side, the Golden Dragon Tree, hundreds of meters tall, stood quietly. Its branches and leaves were all golden, giving off a sacred and inviolable aura. This was where the Twilight Knight had been sleeping, and it was also the essence of the entire divine land.

Of course, the defense here was also the best to a certain extent. There were various runes that the Twilight Knight had personally laid down, which blocked off the leeway of the previous battle and protected this area.

Chen Heng had come here to occupy this core area and for one other thing. He waved his hand, and a wisp of initial power diffused from his body and affected the surroundings. Then, something changed.

An unknown existence was affected by the initial power and instinctively resonated with it. That existence was at the bottom of the pond of life, emitting golden light. The mystery of the endless world was displayed in that light. All kinds of laws and information flooded Chen Hengs mind. He hadnt seen the actual owner yet, but he understood something just sensing that unique light. Is that a stone tablet? Lu Yao reluctantly looked at the pond before her. She could vaguely see what was inside through the light. It wasnt anything else but a stone tablet.

Then, Chen Heng waved his hand and took it down. The appearance of the stone tablet appeared under the illumination of the light. It was a straightforward and quaint stone tablet from the outside. The entire stone tablet seemed to be a light gray color, looking shabby and ancient, as if it had a long history.

However, in Chen Hengs view, this stone tablet represented this world. A large amount of world information appeared out of thin air on it. All sorts of incredible powers were s.h.i.+ning on it, and Chen Heng could not help but be moved.

Even if he were just a mortal, he would probably become an incredible expert if he could hold onto this stone tablet. Of course, the prerequisite was that this mortal could obtain the recognition of the stone tablet. Although the stone tablet was powerful, from what Chen Heng understood, it could only be used by those known as the Kings talent. Otherwise, this was just a simple stone tablet and could not be used.

Among the Five Knights, not sure about the others, but from what Chen Heng knew, the Blue Knight did not seem to be recognized by this stone tablet. Hence he couldnt use it at all. What is this? Lu Yaos voice came from the side. She was a little absent-minded, looking at the stone tablet in Chen Hengs hand.

She didnt know why, but she instinctively felt a desire when she saw this stone tablet, and an inexplicable feeling arose. The stone tablet before her seemed to be something that she was missing, and it made her feel strange.

The initial stone tablet Chen Hengs voice came from the side and said softly, This is a kings leverage. It was precisely why the Twilight Knight transformed.

I see. Lu Yao nodded. Only then did she understand a little about the value of this stone tablet.

The word a kings leverage was enough to prove its value. Only by possessing this stone tablet could one have the qualifications to become a king If you had this stone tablet, I think you would be able to progress further and become even stronger. Lu Yao stood where she was and smiled as she said happily.

Perhaps. Chen Heng did not comment on Lu Yaos words, but he placed the stone tablet in her hand.

The ancient stone tablet landed in Lu Yaos hand and immediately emitted a brilliant light. That golden light shrouded the surroundings, making people feel that it was lovely.

Brother, I Lu Yao was first stunned looking at the scene before her, and then she was at a loss. She did not understand what had happened. As expected Chen Hengs heart was clear As expected, you have the apt.i.tude that the stone tablet acknowledges.

Lu Yaos apt.i.tude was undoubted. The destiny in her body was the strongest that Chen Heng had ever seen in this world. With such a powerful destiny, she could be said to be the child of the era that this world had given birth to. Like the Twilight Knight before it, she was destined to lead and become this eras main character. It was inevitable that she had the apt.i.tude to become a king. Naturally, she could be recognized by the stone tablet. Take it. Looking at Lu Yao, who was at a loss, Chen Heng smiled and said, Your strength is already very strong. Sooner or later, you will reach that limit. And this tablet is the key to your path to becoming a king.

But, what will you do if I take it away, Brother? Lu Yao looked at the tablet. Her eyes were somewhat unwilling, but she still looked at Chen Heng, wanting to decline. I dont need this thing. Chen Heng shook her head and said, Im already a king now. This was the truth. The initial stone tablet was equivalent to leverage. Only with the initial stone tablet could one obtain the worlds recognition and enter the initial s.p.a.ce without any danger to get the initial power within.

If an ordinary person came into contact with the initial power, they would be quickly contacted by the initial power. Their body might not even be able to withstand it and collapse, directly dying. Thus, the initial stone tablet was needed as leverage to obtain the power within the initial s.p.a.ce and ascend to a king. However, Chen Heng was different. He had the clone of Philip as a means to obtain the power within the initial s.p.a.ce. To a certain extent, Philip was equivalent to his leverage, comparable to his initial stone tablet. Since that was the case, he naturally did not need something like the initial stone tablet.

Under such circ.u.mstances, although this stone tablet was of great use to him, it was far less important than the others. Giving it to Lu Yao was the best choice at the moment. After all, her strength was still weak. Giving the initial stone tablet to her would increase her power at the fastest speed, allowing her to reach the peak of this world.

Although this initial stone tablet was equally crucial to the Black King and Crimson Knight, it wasnt so desperately needed, as it would not increase their strength so quickly.

This world needed this initial stone tablet to advance. This was why the world itself did not allow one to advance to the seventh rank. Hence, one could only advance by coming into contact with the worlds origin. In other words, this restriction would naturally disappear as long as one changed to a world with a sufficiently powerful upper limit.

With the Black King and Crimson Knights strength, as long as they changed to a world with a sufficiently high upper limit, they would be able to advance rapidly and break through the seventh rank or even higher with their talents. Under such circ.u.mstances, this stone tablet was not critical to them.

On the contrary, it would be more helpful to Lu Yao. After all, she would still face many future challenges though nothing unexpected happened. This thought flashed through Chen Hengs mind as he looked at Lu Yao before him. The light was still s.h.i.+ning, shrouding the surroundings.

After that, time continued to pa.s.s.

However, the news of this battle was completely exposed after this day.

Many people knew that Chen Heng had broken through the defense line of the Round Table and entered the inner circle of the Round Table to fight the Twilight Knight. More than one faction knew about this news and paid close attention.

After all, the outcome of this battle would affect the galaxys structure. No matter how much attention was paid, it couldnt be too much. Therefore, when Chen Heng appeared again, everyone was in an uproar.
