However, the players’ strength was still too weak. Without the protection of formations and city walls, they were unable to deal with even the Hunters.
John didn’t expect much help from these players.
He found Ritchie and learned that nearly a hundred Lord Gods had gathered outside Shadow Star.
These Lord Gods were all newly emerged.
Fortunately, the Lord Gods from the Eight Star Domains had set aside their differences and teamed up to fight back. With the assistance of The Great Formation of the Surrounding Star, they were barely able to hold off the attacks of the Lord Gods.
Even so, they couldn’t hold out for much longer.
John felt that time was running short. After exchanging a few words, he entered World-in- Hand and began comprehending The Immortals’ Legacy.
…
Under the massive sword of The Immortals’ Legacy, powerful flows of The Power of Laws circulated, merging into John’s body as he sat cross-legged, eyes closed in deep concentration.
He could feel time slipping away as his mind was filled with images-visions of powerful forbidden spells, Immortal Arts, and divine skills.
He lost track of time, but the images in his mind became clearer and clearer.
In the vast expanse of the universe, boundless sword light flickered. This was an enormous domain, freely wielding and destroying everything in its path.
The scene shifted. The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, casting the world into an ominous shade. Purple lightning flashed within the clouds.
Fierce roars echoed through the sky. A massive divine dragon rose from the clouds, its roar shaking the very heavens, causing John’s soul to tremble.
Then, an endless surge of elemental power stirred the air, exuding the aura of world- destroying might…
John’s understanding deepened, and the various The Power of Laws surrounding him grew increasingly stronger.
[Comprehended Immortal Art: United Sword Domain]
[United Sword Domain: Immortal Art, Domain; A powerful sword intent envelops the heavens, isolating all laws and destroying the world.]
[Comprehended Soul Skill: Judgment]
[Judgment: A soul attack skill that contains The Heaven’s Power of Laws. It deals fatal damage to an enemy’s soul, ignoring any soul defense measures and soul backlash damage.]
[Comprehended Soul Skill: Dragon Soul Storm]
[Dragon Soul Storm: A ranged soul attack skill that requires transforming into a divine dragon. The powerful dragon’s roar mesmerizes the enemy, dealing massive soul damage.]
[Comprehended Divine Skill: Elemental Awakening]
[Elemental Awakening: Divine skill; Awakens the powerful elemental The Power of Laws, casting with a single word. Elemental magic damage increases a hundredfold, but each cast consumes 10,000 spiritual power per second.]
A series of notifications flashed, and John opened his eyes, his pupils deep and mysterious, as a vast flow of The Power of Laws surged within him.
“I actually comprehended four powerful skills!” he thought, astonished.
One Immortal Art, one divine skill, and two powerful soul skills.
Especially Judgment, which contained The Heaven’s Laws-a soul damage skill that ignored any soul defenses and the backlash damage. The potential for destruction was terrifying.
He was even confident that he could now kill Lord God-level experts.
“There’s still one more divine skill.” He murmured softly to himself. Elemental Awakening- a magic damage boost that increased his power a hundredfold.
His Wrath of the Gods mage class had once again undergone a huge improvement, now rivaling the strength of his Sword Immortal class.
However, these skills were not the most powerful ones he could sense.
In his mind, there was still a faint image-a scene he had seen when he entered The Immortals’ Secret Area. It depicted a divine skill that the Immortal experts had used together: Disturb the Order of the Universe.
He calmed his mind, focused his energy, and once again tried to comprehend it.
Within The Immortals’ Legacy, the Power of Laws continued to flow, but that image never appeared.
“Can’t I continue to comprehend it?” He opened his eyes with a look of disappointment.
His cultivation was still too low. It seemed that the next time he would be able to comprehend The Immortals’ Legacy would require reaching the upper-tier gods realm.
To break through to upper-tier gods, his level would need to reach 100,000, and his major skills would also need to be raised to level 50,000.
In the short term, he couldn’t achieve that.
“Wait, The Overseer cultivation can still be improved.” He suddenly thought, pulling out more than twenty Hearts of the Continent.
These were all obtained from killing The Overseer.
Since he had already broken through to mid-tier gods and reached the three-star rank of The Overseer, there was still room for improvement.
He closed his eyes once more and began to refine the Hearts of the Continent.
…
[You have broken through to Three-Star Mid-Tier The Overseer, +500,000 to the four main attributes.]
Soon, he had refined all twenty or more Hearts of the Continent, and his The Overseer rank had reached Three-Star Mid-Tier, resulting in another boost to his attributes.
“Only Three-Star Mid-Tier?” He couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
The last time he refined a dozen Hearts of the Continent, he had jumped from Two-Star Early-Stage to Two-Star Full Completion.
It seemed that as his The Overseer rank increased, the resources required to break through also became much larger.
Thankfully, there were plenty of Hearts of the Continent to support him; otherwise, he didn’t know how many years it would take to break through to Three-Star Mid-Tier.
With the increase in his The Overseer rank, his World-in-Hand also underwent some changes. It became more expansive and stable.
At this point, his World-in-Hand was now comparable to a planet.
He once again attempted to comprehend The Immortals’ Legacy, but once again, he failed.
“It seems my rank is still too low,” he sighed in frustration. He would probably have to wait until he broke through to upper-tier gods before he could try comprehending The Immortals’
Legacy again.
Boom…
Suddenly, a violent roar came from afar, shaking Shadow Star itself. Even his World-in-
Hand trembled slightly.
“This is bad. The Great Formation of the Surrounding Star has been broken!” His expression changed slightly, and with a flicker of thought, he left World-in-Hand and appeared in Purple
Sky City.
Boom! Boom!
Thunder rumbled ominously, and a terrifying pressure spread across the area.
In the sky above, the Star Dust shattered, and waves of terrifying Power of Laws swirled through the air. The Void split apart, and endless chaotic space currents surged. In the midst of it all, several figures could be seen engaged in battle.
These figures were all Lord God-level experts.
“Boss, The Great Formation of the Surrounding Star has been destroyed!” Ritchie, who had been searching for him, immediately rushed over when he saw John appear.
John nodded, his gaze fixed on the ongoing battle in the sky. Dozens of Lord God experts were clashing, and Shadow Star would surely be affected by the chaos.
“You all head into my World-in-Hand,” John instructed. He gestured for everyone,
except Cand-Dragon, to enter his World-in-Hand.
“Cand-Dragon, let’s go meet them!” The battle intent around John surged as he broke through to mid-tier gods, his The Overseer rank increasing. With the several powerful skills he had comprehended from The Immortals’ Legacy, he was confident he could hold his own
against Lord God experts.
“Alright!” Cand-Dragon was equally excited. Now that he was also a Lord God, he was eager
to test his newfound strength.
Roar…
With a mighty roar, Cand-Dragon transformed into a divine dragon. John leaped onto his back, and with a gust of wind, the massive dragon shot through the space turbulence, heading straight into the battlefield where the Lord Gods were clashing.
“Another Lord God!” The figures caught the aura of Cand-Dragon and noticed that he was a newly ascended Lord God. They didn’t pay much attention to him and continued their chaotic
battle.
Only Nature God noticed John on Cand-Dragon’s back. With a slight nod, he acknowledged
him, a silent greeting in the middle of the chaos.
The other Lord Gods ignored them.
John gripped his United Sword and, with Cand-Dragon, observed the ongoing battle between
the Lord Gods. The space around them was torn apart by the swirling currents, but they were
unaffected.
The Lord Gods were divided into three factions.
One faction consisted of Nature God and six others, another had Shadow God and Witch God along with two others, while the final faction numbered over seventy. Which made up of newly promoted Lord Gods who had gained The Heaven law with the help
of Creator God. These were the weakest of the three factions, but they held the advantage due
to their numbers.
According to the information Ritchie transmitted, over one hundred new Lord Gods had
appeared, but now only about seventy remained. At least thirty had already been killed.
Among the three factions, Shadow God and Witch God were the weakest, facing constant danger. Fortunately, the Great Formation of the Surrounding Star had not been completely
destroyed.
With the power of the formation, he was barely able to keep entangled with both sides. What shocked John the most was the strength of Nature God.
The old man was surrounded by a powerful aura of elemental force, and in his hand was a
weapon in the form of a towering structure. The tower shimmered with golden light, easily blocking the attacks from multiple Lord Gods while continuously striking back.
“An ancient artifact, Heidern Tower!” John recognized the weapon, one that was as famous as
his own United Sword-the Heidern Tower.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, a newly ascended Lord God’s physical body was shattered by the
towering weapon.
Buzz!
The sword intent hummed as John suddenly made his move, striking directly at the exposed
soul of the fallen Lord God.
It was a soul skill, Judgment!
Boom!
The soul of the Lord God was obliterated, and a Lord God Divine Core dropped to the ground.
John used Mind Manipulation, immediately seizing the Divine Core.
“You human, you’re asking for death!” Several newly ascended Lord Gods noticed him,
s they charg
toward him.
shouting “Come at me!” John grinned, his battle intent soaring. He didn’t make a move just yet, instead calling out, “Heaven and Earth Transformation!”
With a mighty dragon roar, Cand-Dragon unleashed the Heaven and Earth Transformation,
his colossal body appearing in the void, charging straight at one of the Lord Gods.
In the Heaven and Earth Transformation state, Cand-Dragon’s attributes increased by 150 times, making him just as powerful as the newly ascended Lord Gods.
John also activated the Heaven and Earth Transformation, and his sword intent hummed as countless sword rays enveloped the entire void.
Immortal Art: Qian Kun Sword Domain.
John joined the Nature God faction, confronting the two newly ascended Lord Gods from
the Shadow God faction.
“Not bad, kid. Your strength has increased so dramatically!” Nature God was astonished,
casting a glance at the sky full of sword rays. His fighting spirit soared as he threw himself into the battle.
“Is this the Godslayer?” One of the newly ascended Lord Gods glanced at John and asked in
curiosity. “That’s me.” John spoke coldly, his battle intent surging as he controlled the boundless sword domain, with sword rays pouring down from all directions.
The pressure on the battlefield increased dramatically. The newly ascended Lord Gods were being slaughtered one after another.
Shadow God and Witch God exchanged solemn glances, shocked by the turn of events. They hadn’t expected the addition of John and Cand-Dragon to completely change the tide of
the battle. Exchanging a look, they seemed to reach a silent agreement to join forces with the new Lord Gods to take on Nature God and John with full force.
The power of laws surged violently as the Lord Gods clashed in an earth-shattering battle.
The void shattered, devouring everything around them.
Lord Gods were continuously being torn apart, their physical forms obliterated. John’s gaze
remained fixed on the battlefield. As soon as he saw a Lord God fall, he immediately activated
his soul skill-Judgment-to completely erase them.
Killing Lord Gods was not an easy feat.
But with his involvement, within a short time, three Lord Gods had already fallen.
