Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1526 - 1452: Finally Unveiled! The Secret of the Blood Castle!

Chapter 1526: Chapter 1452: Finally Unveiled! The Secret of the Blood Castle!

The box was slowly opened to a crack, then could no further be opened, as an invisible force prevented Yun.

"[System Prompt]: This item has specific opening conditions. It can only be opened by the Barbarian God in the Barbarian God Temple. Both conditions are indispensable."

This was the second time Yun heard this system prompt.

When he got the box from the Archangel of Death, he had already heard this system prompt!

The box requires two conditions to be fully opened; one is in the Barbarian God Temple, and the other is by the Barbarian God personally.

Now, Yun has met only the first condition, so the box could only open a crack but not fully.

But this was not a problem. Yun had just managed to place the Barbarian God Simulacrum into the belly of the Clone of the Barbarian God. Once the Barbarian God Simulacrum absorbs the power of the Clone of the Barbarian God and replaces it, the second condition will be fulfilled, and the box can be fully opened.

Although only a crack opened now, Yun had already achieved his purpose. He could at least sense some clues from within that crack.

Through the tiny crack, he carefully sensed the things inside.

The interior of the box had an unfathomable feeling; the palm-sized box seemed to have no boundaries, as if there was a Small World inside.

Suddenly, Yun sensed a familiar aura in the box, which seemed to perceive his presence and swiftly floated towards him.

Following the momentum, Yun inhaled that aura right out of the box!

It was a wisp of blood-red aura, like a Blood Snake, meandering eerily through the air!

More bizarrely, it was sourced from the same origin as Yun’s Nashash Bloodline! As if they originally were one!

In an instant, Yun’s body, like a magnet, absorbed that wisp of soul aura directly into him without any obstruction.

Almost simultaneously, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the air, with six arms, bulging muscles, and a fierce expression; it was evidently the Clone of the Barbaric God!

It emerged right before Yun, with an overwhelming aura that almost pinned Yun motionless.

The giant eyes of the Clone of the Barbaric God scanned around, gradually frowning, muttering: "Strange, I clearly sensed the aura of Xue Huan just now, so how did it suddenly vanish?"

"Oh! Greetings to Lord Barbarian God!" At this moment, the two Barbarian God Cultists busy by the Blood Pool finally noticed the arrival of the Clone of the Barbaric God and were scared, hastily kneeling without daring to lift their heads.

The Clone of the Barbaric God turned to overlook them, asking: "Did you notice anything unusual just now?"

The two Barbarian God Cultists exchanged a glance and both shook their heads, saying: "No! We noticed nothing unusual!"

"But I clearly sensed the aura of Xue Huan appearing just now!" The Clone of the Barbaric God frowned and said.

"U-uh, we didn’t notice anything! Could it be the Blood Pool’s effect? This Blood Pool originally fuses multiple bloods, and Xue Huan is extremely bloodthirsty; could it be a mix-up?" One Barbarian God Cultist cautiously said.

The Clone of the Barbaric God pondered, pursed his lips, and finally shook his head, staring at the two Barbarian God Cultists, saying: "Hurry up and brew the Demonic Blood Potion, then scatter it to The Second World!"

With that said, he disappeared into the air once more.

The two Barbarian God Cultists let out a breath of relief and stood up again.

Yun also finally relaxed.

Luckily, he was in the Soul of Darkness state, perfectly fused with the darkness, otherwise, he surely would have been discovered by the Clone of the Barbaric God, with unimaginable consequences.

In the Soul of Darkness state, the box he held in his hand would also blend into the darkness, remaining unseen.

He stared at the box in his hand, roughly guessing what was inside—

The soul of Xue Huan! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The wisp of soul aura just now, originating from the same source as his Nashash Bloodline, was absorbed by him directly! And since he evolved using the blood of Nashash named "Xue Huan," this soul aura originating from the same source indicates it was a wisp of the soul of Xue Huan.

Moreover, the Clone of the Barbaric God’s words also indicated he perceived this soul aura, mistakenly thinking Xue Huan had come here.

But why would the box left by Bloodhoof contain Xue Huan’s soul aura?

Bloodhoof was a God Sealer of Ancient Times in the First World, while Xue Huan was Nashash of the First World; what relationship do they have?

Long ago, Yun had a bold conjecture but had never found enough evidence, never daring to acknowledge it, because it would completely overturn the image of Bloodhoof the Ascendant.

But now, the wisp of Xue Huan’s soul aura escaping from this box can largely confirm this conjecture of his.

Yun retracted the box into the storage ring, focusing on the two busy Barbarian God Cultists near the Blood Pool.

Just now, the Clone of the Barbaric God instructed these two followers to quickly brew the Demonic Blood Potion and send it to The Second World.

The Second World is currently in a critical period, with the King of Annihilation leading a group of Demon Clan experts, vigorously destroying the remaining Respawn Points. What conspiracy do the Barbarian God Cult have by sending this thing called "Demonic Blood Potion" to The Second World?

At this moment, the demons in the Blood Pool had stopped struggling, likely boiled alive.

Their demonic blood mixed with the broth in the Blood Pool, turning the entire pool black, exuding a strong demonic aura.

The two followers of the Barbarian God Cult boiled the mixture for over an hour until the demonic bodies were entirely stewed, then finally stopped with a long sigh of relief.

"Finally, the Demonic Blood Potion is ready!"

"Let’s quickly send this Demonic Blood Potion to The Second World! If we delay, Lord Barbarian God will blame us, and we’ll be done for..."

As they spoke, the two followers immediately took out a Divine Crystal Vial from their storage ring and absorbed the contents of the Blood Pool!

Instantly, the boiling Demonic Blood Potion flew up from the Blood Pool and into the Divine Crystal Vial.

Afterward, the two followers of the Barbarian God Cult hurriedly left the room.

Huang Yi silently followed them, crossing corridors, taking several turns, and headed deeper into the Temple.

Finally, the two followers stopped in front of a door.

The door was tightly closed, and something significant seemed to be hidden inside. The two followers were evidently more nervous at this point. They exchanged a glance before finally reaching out to open the door.

Inside was an empty room, seemingly abandoned for a long time.

Upon entering, the two followers walked straight to a wall.

The wall was painted with parallel horizontal lines, resembling some sort of formation pattern, yet unlike any formation diagram Huang Yi had seen before, it seemed exclusive to the Barbarian God Cult.

Once in front of the wall, the two followers reached out, touched the wall, and chanted a mystic spell.

In the next moment, those parallel horizontal lines suddenly emitted a faint glow, rippling like water, as if activated.

The two followers marched forward, crashing into the wall and integrating themselves inside, disappearing without a trace!

Huang Yi stood there dumbfounded, as if suddenly remembering something, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly followed, crashing into the wall.

The next moment, his Soul of Darkness body also sank into the wall, disappearing without a trace.

An overwhelming feeling as if the world was spinning hit him, like experiencing a long teleportation.

After a long time, Huang Yi appeared in another place.

It was a chilling room, permeated with the scent of blood, with bloodstains on the carpet, and ordinary furniture like a bed, table, chair, and wardrobe.

Yet seeing this scene made Huang Yi’s heart tremble immensely!

This room was all too familiar; he had been here before!

He turned to look back, finding a brick wall behind him, with rows of brick seams neatly aligned, giving no hint of anything unusual.

He had just exited from this wall, and right on the other side was the Barbarian God Temple!

These seemingly ordinary brick seams were actually the same as the parallel horizontal lines he just saw, essentially a formation diagram existing in the form of brick seams.

A casual viewer would only see a wall and wouldn’t realize those brick seams were actually a formation diagram.

At this moment, the two followers had already reached the doorway, opening the door.

Instantly, light flooded in, brightening the room slightly. Huang Yi, in the Soul of Darkness state, was faintly outlined by the light.

Yet the two followers didn’t notice Huang Yi behind them and directly strode out.

So Huang Yi exited the Soul of Darkness state and switched to Absolute Invisibility, and walked out through the door.

Beyond the door was a study, with several bookshelves crammed with various books and documents. By the window stood a telescope aimed at the sky outside. Next to it was a wooden desk with a few books on it. Centered on the desk was an open leather-bound journal turned upside down, as if it had been perused before.

Looking out the window, one could see a castle, shrouded in ominous clouds, with its dense array of buildings emanating a sinister aura.

It was unmistakably the Blood Castle, the former residence of Bloodhoof the Ascendant!

Previously, when Huang Yi was on the Blood Moon Continent, he had come to investigate Blood Castle and even entered this very study, but was unable to open that door.

Recently, he visited Blood Castle again, and using the Nashash Form, he finally unlocked that door, entering the previous bedroom, but failed to detect anything unusual about the brick wall!

Now, he finally understood the secret here; the room was a teleportation space, and the brick seams on the wall were actually a teleportation formation diagram, connecting to the Barbarian God Temple of the First World!

With this realization, any remaining doubts in Huang Yi’s mind were entirely dispelled!

He could finally ascertain the truth behind the mystery of Bloodhoof’s death!
