Chapter 1257: Shocking the Imperial Nether Clan

“Th-that seems to be our clan’s strongest innate ability, Nether Yin Gate!”

“There’s no mistaking it! He has awakened three abilities? He actually has the primordial bloodline. His bloodline is too powerful!”

“He is more than worthy of being a prince. He might even be a future Nether Monarch candidate!”

“Pay close attention to it. This Nether Yin Gate feels very powerful.”

“Something seems to be coming out of the gate. It can’t be the legendary nether yin devil, right? I thought only those who have reached the God Realm can summon nether yin devils?”

“Heavens, don’t scare me like that!”

…

Ming He’s face turned incredibly unsightly. How would he have guessed that Xiang Shaoyun also had the Nether Yin Gate ability? One ought to know that of their three innate abilities, the Imperial Nether Domain was the most common and practical, the Invisible Nether was incredibly effective despite its lack of offensive prowess, and the Nether Soul Domain was the strongest.

The Nether Yin Gate could divert all attacks and could even summon nether yin devils to fight on behalf of the summoner. Apart from that, it also had a mysterious effect only those who had fully comprehended the Nether Yin Gate’s profundity could utilize—the ability to reach the Nether Realm through the gate.

The Nether Realm was an exceptionally mysterious place. Few Imperial Nether Clan members had been there, but everyone who had been there had returned with an incredible harvest.

That was also the main reason why the Nether Yin Gate was crowned as the clan’s strongest innate ability. Of the many imperial nether devils, few could awaken this ability. Even saying that only one in ten thousand could awaken it wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

When Xiang Shaoyun displayed that he had awakened all three innate abilities, all the imperial nether devils were shocked. Further shocking them was the fact that Xiang Shaoyun could actually summon nether yin devils with his low cultivation level. That was an extremely astonishing revelation.

After all, it was practically common sense in the clan that only those in the Devil God Realm could summon nether yin devils from the Nether Realm. However, Xiang Shaoyun had utilized only a Saint Realm soul to form a connection with the Nether Realm. This proved that it was only a matter of time before he entered the Nether Realm. According to the legends, the Nether Realm was the birthplace of the Imperial Nether Clan. It was a place every Imperial Nether Clan member longed to go.

“It really is the Nether Yin Gate! No wonder the Nether Monarch had summoned him!” Ming Cigeng exclaimed in alarm.

Xiang Shaoyun activated the Nether Yin Gate without holding anything back and summoned nether yin devils from beyond the gate. Two incredibly powerful nether yin devils stepped out. Their gazes instantly focused on Ming He as they started attacking him.

“Shit!” Ming He cursed as he hurriedly retreated. He could feel just how terrifying these two were. He wouldn’t stand a chance against them.

Unfortunately, it was already too late for him to escape. The two nether yin devils had already locked onto him. Destructive attacks were already heading his way.

“You won’t be able to defeat me so easily!” Ming He roared. When he saw that he had no chance of escaping, he released his Imperial Nether Domain and wrapped the two nether yin devils in it.

Unfortunately, not even his Imperial Nether Domain could trap the two nether yin devils. They blasted his domain apart, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood. He had suffered a serious injury. He was completely helpless against the two nether yin devils.

Just as the nether yin devils were about to deal the finishing blow, Ming Cigeng finally made a move. A powerful force wrapped around the nether yin devils, completely freezing them in space. This was the strength of a God Realm expert. Everyone there felt it, realizing how tiny they were before such power.

“Your highness, please withdraw the Nether Yin Gate. I guarantee nobody will continue to create trouble for you,” said Ming Cigeng, finally changing the way he addressed Xiang Shaoyun.

Only the most remarkable of the younger generation were worthy of being referred to as “your highness.” At present, the entire Imperial Nether Clan only had a total of 18 princes. Xiang Shaoyun would be the 19th prince. It was clear how high Xiang Shaoyun’s status was going to be in the clan. However, his human bloodline would also be his biggest obstruction. Furthermore, he still needed to obtain the Nether Monarch’s acknowledgment.

It wasn’t easy for Xiang Shaoyun to keep the Nether Yin Gate active. Since Ming Cigeng had promised him safety, he naturally wouldn’t keep attacking. He still wanted to live. As he withdrew his energy, the Nether Yin Gate dispersed. The two nether yin devils were pulled back into the world beyond the gate.

Xiang Shaoyun’s saint soul also returned to his body. An unyielding look filled his eyes. He was the overlord. Nobody could get off scot-free after insulting him. He then used the Secret Reversal Technique and started healing his injuries. Ming He glared at Xiang Shaoyun in an unresigned manner before leaving silently.

Ming Cigeng looked at the others and said, “Leave. The matches are over for the day.”

Everyone started leaving. They all wanted to stay and get a better look at Xiang Shaoyun. After all, he was a prince. They might not get a second chance to meet a prince after this. That was especially true for the female imperial nether devils. All of them seemed smitten with Xiang Shaoyun. If they could win the heart of a prince, a bright future awaited them.

Instead of directly leaving with Xiang Shaoyun, Ming Cigeng stayed and waited for Xiang Shaoyun to complete his healing. He could no longer treat Xiang Shaoyun with disrespect. This was a prince who had awakened three abilities, someone with boundless potential. 

After an indeterminate amount of time, Xiang Shaoyun finally opened his eyes. He felt much better.

“Do you feel better, your highness? I still have some healing items here. They can help you get better faster,” offered Ming Cigeng.

Xiang Shaoyun looked over. Joy instantly covered his face as Ming Cigeng had actually offered him a saint-grade devilish fruit. Not only could this fruit increase one’s lifespan, but it could also rapidly heal one’s injuries. It could also strengthen one’s devilish energy. It was a saint-grade fruit that all devils longed to have.

As a half-devil, Xiang Shaoyun was naturally capable of digesting this fruit. A regular human would only be devoured and killed by the devilish energy after consuming this fruit. He accepted the fruit unhesitatingly, but he kept it away for the future instead of using it.

Mi Cigeng did not question his action. Instead, he asked, “Shall we head over now?”

“Yes, let’s go,” said Xiang Shaoyun. He knew he had no other choices, anyway. It was time for him to meet the legendary Nether Monarch.
