John felt the pressure mount as, in the blink of an eye, he was killed over a dozen times by the two three-star The Overseer.
Even with his Golden Lotus Manifestation protecting his soul, the strange and unpredictable soul attacks from that Humdwar were impossible to track, leaving him defenseless.
His soul had been severely wounded. If it continued like this, it could soon threaten his life.
“Damn it!” John cursed under his breath, his face grim. The strength of the three-star The Overseer was far too overwhelming.
With his current power, even taking on a single three-star The Overseer was difficult, let alone two.
He needed to find a way to boost his strength.
John’s gaze flickered as he glanced over at Centeror and his group, who were still fighting Ice Talker.
Except for Centeror, both Saukers and Thunderover were two-star The Overseer.
If he could just take down one more two-star The Overseer, his understanding of the Heaven laws would reach 10%, and he might finally be able to harness the Heaven power. His strength would increase once more.
He made up his mind and, with a thought, activated his World-in-Hand, pulling the two two-star The Overseer into it.
Buzz!
A wave of spatial power spread out. The two looked around at the unfamiliar environment, confusion etched on their faces.
John’s figure appeared before them, and they quickly realized that they were now inside his World-in-Hand.
“Such a powerful World-in-Hand,” Saukers said, his tone one of mild surprise. The space was solid, yet he still looked down on John with disdain. “Human, do you think you can use your World-in-Hand to deal with us? You are truly ignorant!”
“Heh,” John sneered. “What’s wrong? Haven’t you noticed that the only ones still alive in World-in-Hand are that Humdwar and the three-star The Overseer from the Sea Clan?”
“What?” The two exchanged a glance, immediately sensing the danger. The power of laws surged around them as they tried to destroy World-in-Hand.
“Hmph, now you realize? Too late!” John coldly responded. Concerned that Ice Talker and the others might be overwhelmed by Humdwar’s attacks, he decided to end this swiftly. With a thought, he unleashed his soul attack—Golden Lotus Hellfire.
The golden flames flickered and instantly engulfed the two of them.
These two were even weaker than the other two-star The Overseer John had killed before. They had no means to resist such a powerful soul attack.
The two immediately howled in agony, writhing and struggling in the flames.
Then, a vast sea of blood-red light engulfed them, and John activated Blood Domain, instantly obliterating the two.
As The Overseers, they had numerous Lifesaver abilities and immediately performed Resurrection at the spot. However, they still appeared pale, their faces contorted in pain, their souls severely injured.
John wasted no time, not allowing them a moment’s respite. A myriad of sword energies flickered as he unleashed Return of Ten Thousand Swords.
“Asshole!” the two cursed. They were still enveloped by Golden Lotus Hellfire, writhing in pain, gritting their teeth as they activated the power of laws from their own World-in-Hand to try and resist John’s attack.
But their strength was too weak to be of any use, and within moments, they were killed again.
“Human, let us go!” Saukers screamed in pain, finally realizing the extent of John’s power. At this rate, both of them would be dead for sure.
John’s gaze was icy, and he didn’t show the slightest sign of mercy. The powerful sword intent around him hummed, and two enormous sword beams appeared, instantly tearing through the sky with a howling slash.
It was Immortal Art: Nine Heavens Sword.
Boom!
Once again, the two were obliterated. They Resurrected in place, pale-faced, as the Golden Lotus Hellfire burned and purified their souls. The agony they felt was beyond what any normal person could endure.
Feeling the cold grip of death, Saukers hastily begged for mercy. “Godslayer, I know I was wrong. Please, let me go, and I swear I will never be your enemy again.”
Thunderover, standing by, also hurriedly nodded, his expression filled with unbearable pain.
“Regretting now is too late,” John said coldly, immediately activating his soul skill, Soul Impact.
Buzz!
The air vibrated with a powerful hum as two overwhelming waves of soul energy slammed into the two The Overseers, crushing their souls in an instant.
A trickle of blood leaked from their mouths as their eyes glazed over, gradually losing their color before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
Two Heart of the Continent floated out from their corpses, and John reached out to claim them.
The prompt message flickered.
[You have killed The Overseer Thunderover, gaining 26.76 billion experience points.]
[Your level has increased…]
[Plunder talent activated: The Heaven power of laws +1%, spirit +5000, spell crit +5, skill points +1000.]
[Your understanding of The Heaven laws has reached 10%, you can now wield the The Heaven power.]
[You have killed The Overseer Saukers, gaining 267.66 billion experience points.]
[Plunder talent activated: You have acquired the SSS-grade Gold Elemental Talent, The Heaven power of laws +1%, attack speed +10, luck +1.]
…
John was surprised to have gained yet another SSS-grade elemental talent, especially the rare Gold Elemental Talent.
But what truly delighted him was the increase in his The Heaven power of laws.
Having killed the two, his understanding of The Heaven laws had increased to 11%, bringing him a deeper insight into the power.
Boom!
He casually waved his hand, and the space shattered. Thunder roared, and an immense pressure descended, causing even his World-in-Hand to tremble.
He was startled and quickly retracted his aura.
“Is that so!” His eyes widened in shock and joy.
This was The Heaven power of laws—the most primordial force in the world, more powerful than Chaos Force.
Now, he was confident that he could slay a Three-Star The Overseer.
“It’s time to deal with those few guys,” he muttered, no longer hesitating. With a thought, he left World-in-Hand.
…
John entered World-in-Hand, and Humdwar, having lost his target, turned his attention to Ice Talker and Terran, who were fighting against Centeror.
“Demesnor, go destroy Purple Sky City,” John said, directing his attention to the Sea Clan The Overseer, before launching himself toward Terran.
He wasn’t afraid of offending Nature Clan’s Ice Talker, but Terran, being a mid-tier Two-Star The Overseer, wouldn’t attract much attention from Nature Clan.
“Understood!” Demesnor nodded and charged toward Purple Sky City.
Countless Hunters had gathered around the city walls, attacking the Four Symbols Guardian Formation relentlessly. Their weak attacks created ripples in the air, but they were far too weak to break through the shield.
“Hmph, a bunch of useless fools. Get out of my way!” Demesnor cursed, brandishing his long sword and bringing it down with force.
It was a Rupture, infused with space law.
Boom!
A deafening explosion shook the air, and the protective shield shattered instantly.
Roar, roar…
The Hunters around the city shouted in excitement, pouring into the city like a tidal wave.
Demesnor raised his sword once more, swinging it down to collapse the sturdy city walls. He then entered the city openly, heading straight for the city’s altar.
“Dammit, you dare!” a voice shouted in fury. A wave of Spatial Power surged, and John’s figure appeared. His longsword sliced through the air, a fierce slash coming his way.
“Human, I thought you’d run away,” Demesnor sneered, easily blocking the sword beam with a wave of his hand.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll deal with you first!” Demesnor turned his attention to John.
Whether it was destroying the city or killing this human, both actions would reward him with a planet.
Moreover, if he killed John, destroying the city would be an easy task afterward.
“Split Void Slash!” Demesnor roared, taking the first step in his attack.
A gigantic sword beam screamed toward John, infused with the formidable space power of laws, reaching him in an instant.
John’s expression grew serious, and he couldn’t afford to be careless. His Amethyst Battle Armor began to materialize around him.
Boom!
The sword beam struck, and his battle armor was shattered in an instant, his health reduced to zero.
[You have been slain by Three-Star The Overseer Demesnor. The Undying and Immortal talent is triggered…]
The prompt message flashed, and John Resurrected in place, his face pale. He immediately retreated, keeping a wary eye on Demesnor.
His power was still too weak. In the face of an Upper-Tier God at the peak of Three-Star The Overseer strength, he simply couldn’t withstand the opponent’s attacks.
Demesnor sneered arrogantly, flicking his fingers against the blade, producing a crisp ringing sound. He spoke with disdain, “Human, you’re nothing in the face of a true powerhouse. You’re completely powerless. Stop struggling, perhaps I’ll give you a quick death.”
“Is that so?” John took a deep breath, and a gale of wind howled around him, an overwhelming pressure radiating outward. His figure instantly transformed into a giant towering thousands of feet tall.
Heaven and Earth Transformation.
The sheer size of his form created an immense psychological impact on his enemies, but Demesnor still remained unimpressed.
“Human, it’s useless,” Demesnor said dismissively, raising his long blade once more, the aura of his sword swirling around him as powerful ripples of space law emanated from his body.
“Soul Slash!” he roared, and in an instant, a massive sword beam split the void, roaring toward John.
It was a soul attack!
John didn’t dare underestimate it. He immediately invoked his Golden Lotus Manifestation.
At the same time, he concentrated the Heaven power of laws into his sword, and unleashed the Nine Heavens Sword.
A massive sword beam ripped through the sky, howling toward Demesnor. But unlike his previous sword attacks, this beam contained the power of the Heaven Law.
Demesnor looked at the massive sword beam, his expression one of cold arrogance. He didn’t dodge, sneering as he said, “Human, I told you, before a true powerhouse, you have no ability to resist.”
The giant sword beam descended in an instant, and a terrifying aura spread out, suppressing the very fabric of space and time.
“The Heaven Law!” Demesnor’s smile immediately froze, his eyes widening in fear.
Boom!
A resounding explosion echoed as both Demesnor and John were simultaneously struck down.
However, John’s injuries were not severe. With the protection of the Golden Lotus Manifestation, his soul remained unscathed.
Both of them Resurrected in place.
“Cough!” Demesnor spat out a mouthful of blood, his face contorted in pain and disbelief. “Impossible! Human, you’re only a Two-Star The Overseer. You should never be able to grasp the Heaven Law!”
The Heaven Law was incredibly powerful, and only The Overseer and Lord Gods could perceive it.
To truly master the Heaven power of laws, one would need to be at least a Five-Star The Overseer.
John was only a Two-Star The Overseer in the late stages; it was absolutely impossible for him to comprehend the Heaven power of laws.
“Heh, what’s all this talk about Three-Star The Overseer? It’s nothing special.” John scoffed coldly, his immense sword intent surging around him. Thousands of sword beams materialized.
Return of Ten Thousand Swords, and it was infused with the Heaven Law damage as well.
“No!” Demesnor’s face turned pale with terror. His arrogance was completely gone, and he frantically tried to dodge.
But facing the barrage of thousands of sword beams, there was no place for him to hide.
Puff…
Blood splattered as Demesnor was struck down once again.
“Soul Impact!”
Before Demesnor could Resurrect, John immediately launched his soul skill. The air trembled as a powerful wave of soul energy slammed into his exposed soul.
“No…” A voice filled with unwillingness echoed.
Demesnor, who practiced the Sea Clan’s techniques, had his physical body destroyed. His Soul Technique was nowhere near John’s, and without any means of defense, he was directly obliterated.
