Hail the King

Chapter 930: Stepping into the Demi-God Realm (Part One)

Even Fei didn’t realize that his reputation was increasing at such a drastic speed as a result of his killing of monsters in the real world. Right now, his fame already surpassed the emperors in the Northern Region of Azeroth. Even Emperor Yassin who advanced into the Demi-God Realm in high profile was gradually being covered by the light emitted from the Human Emperor of the North.

The terrifying power of Undead Creatures Catastrophes deeply rooted in humans’ minds. Even demi-gods who people looked up to could only kill undead creatures but couldn’t purify the land that was already stained by the evil energy. Therefore, when Fei appeared and was able to clean the evil energy like the counter to evil, the people living at the bottom of the social ladder sensed a sliver of hope, and that was very different from no hope at all.

Quickly, three days passed by.

Today, something shocking happened in the Northern Region of Azeroth.

A streak of holy and grand power surged into the sky. This beam of energy was hundreds of kilometers tall, and its diameter was more than ten kilometers. Looking from afar, it seemed like a god dropped a holy sword from Heaven, and it fell to the mortal world and stabbed into the ground. In the region with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, all other elements were repelled, and only holy elements remained. The warriors and mages within the area felt like a majestic and powerful god was looking down on them, and their powers were suppressed so much that they were going to disappear soon.

“This phenomenon… Are the priests of the Holy Church casting a holy forbidden spell?”

“Such terrifying power. This isn’t something that humans can have. Could it be that a god is descending from Heaven?”

“No! This should be… someone is advancing into the Demi-God Realm! This is nature’s challenge of the holy elements!”

“Ah! I know! It must be the Human Emperor of the North! His Majesty must be advancing to the Demi-God Realm! Only His Majesty can create such a majestic scene!”

“Bullsh*t! Are you dumb? Human Emperor His Majesty already defeated that demi-god from another region of Azeroth ten days ago. It means that His Majesty was already a demi-god then; how can he be advancing…”

“Ah? Then, how can you explain this?”

“Hehe, I think that Human Emperor His Majesty is killing the criminal behind this Undead Creature Catastrophe! This criminal should be a terrifying undead mage! No! He should be a horrifying demon lord of Hell! That is why Human Emperor His Majesty is using a forbidden spell, and it caused this phenomenon!”

At the same time, within the region with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, much gossiping and speculations were occurring.

In the last while, Fei had accumulated quite a reputation in the Northern Region, and many people treated him as a god and worshipped him. Almost everyone who heard of Fei’s name would give him a thumbs-up, and people would talk about the Human Emperor of the North for more than a day when they got together.

Therefore, as soon as such a phenomenon occurred, people instantly put it on Fei.

At the same time, the aura of this thick beam of terrifying golden energy permeated the air, spreading all over the continent. Those old monster-like hermits and talented young lords were all startled!

“Someone is advancing into the Demi-God Realm!”

“There have been people stepping into the Demi-God Realm repeatedly. Could it be that the laws of nature have been altered?”

“Another one… is the Chaos Era starting now? It seems like it is unavoidable!”

“Haha! Come! The stronger the better! I can’t wait! My blood is boiling already!”

Chapter 930: Stepping into the Demi-God Realm (Part Two)

-In the wilderness-

Fei looked at the phenomenon in the air, and he was a little stunned.

He was waiting for nature’s challenge, but it didn’t appear as he expected.

After thinking back to Emperor Yassin’s shocking performance, Fei remembered that this talented genius had to borrow strength from D’Alessandro and Emperor Kerimov of Anji and get them to take some pressure off him. Even though Emperor Yassin got through it alive, the process was extremely dangerous. Also, according to the legends that were documented on the books, nature’s challenge before advancing into the Demi-God Realm was extremely dangerous. Throughout history, many talented geniuses failed in the process; it would be considered lucky if they failed and only lost their cultivation strength and kept their lives. Many people directly died in nature’s challenge.

After Fei absorbed enough mystical energy in the area in the morning, he felt like he couldn’t suppress his cultivation strength anymore, so he found a safe place and undertook many preparations. Only then did he try to start advancing toward the Demi-God Realm.

However, this process was exceptionally easy, far surpassing his most optimistic estimate.

From beginning to end, no danger or crisis appeared.

“God said that the land could only be beautiful with green grass and trees.”

While Fei floated in the air, golden energy flames enveloped the area one kilometer around him. As soon as he said that, a large stretch of green grass started to grow on the land that was engulfed by the golden light, and many buds shot out of the ground and quickly turned into giant trees that soared into the sky and waved in the wind.

A small forest was created just like that out of nowhere!

This was the power of a realm!

“God said that the land could only be fertile with the nurturing of rain.”

Heavy rain instantly poured down from the sky, and a lot of rainwater accumulated on the ground and formed ponds since the water could only seep into the ground at a fixed rate. Soon, the ponds turned into lakes, and…

“This is right; nothing seems strange. This is the power of a realm! In this golden light realm, my words are the laws of nature! I can control everything!”

After doing many experiments, Fei confirmed that he had entered the Demi-God Realm.

Fei carefully sensed his internal state and detected streaks of vast energy that seemed like surging rivers. In fact, his vitality was comparable to great dragons’!

Fei could easily control everything within the golden light realm! He could make everything grow and kill everything off with a thought in his head!

“However, why wasn’t there nature’s challenge during my advancement?”

“Is it because of the mystical energy that I absorbed?” Fei thought for a while and didn’t get an answer.

Everything that had been happening recently suggested one thing; Fei was a unique person with abilities that were out of this world!

However, the reason behind all this was unexplainable now.

“Whatever; I don’t need to waste time and energy on this.” Fei rubbed his temples and murmured, “God said that what should come will come, and what should leave will leave. Everything can go back to where it came from!”

A breeze blew by, and the forest and lakes instantly turned into streaks of mist and vanished.

Fei’s Paladin character finally reached the Demi-God Realm.

To Fei, this was significant! This was the first time that he increased his strength without the help of Diablo World. He believed that if he encountered a demi-god like Reus, he wouldn’t be that weak and resourceless anymore. At least his body wouldn’t be that damaged, and he wouldn’t have to be so close to death.

Right now, even if Fei had to fight other demi-gods, he wasn’t afraid.

…

Three days later, Fei finally reached the Anji Empire after killing monsters along the way.
