When a powerful being self-destructs, their cultivation is completely scattered, and even Resurrection can only allow them to start from scratch.
“Kid, just give it up,” Highshield also spoke up, trying to dissuade John.
Though they were deeply moved by John’s actions, they knew it wasn’t worth it.
They had spent countless years to reach their current levels of power, and it would take tens of thousands of years to recover their strength.
Right now, the Kaos Star Domain was facing numerous crises, with several Creator Gods already targeting John and Leisian. He needed to conserve his strength.
Looking at the gradually condensing Remnant Souls of the two, John gave a slight smile and said, “Don’t worry, even if you two become useless, I’ll still protect you.”
“Damn! Who are you calling useless, kid?” Thoublade snapped, anger flaring up.
He was once a top talent himself, or else he wouldn’t have grown into an Eight-Star Emperor Overseer under the suppression of Kaos.
“You human, who are you looking down on?” Highshield also grew furious, his soul slightly turning red.
If he still had his physical form, he would’ve rushed over to give John a good beating.
John looked at them dismissively, saying coldly, “What? Not convinced? Then show me what you’ve got.”
The two exchanged a glance. They both knew that John was just using a tactic to provoke them.
Thoublade sighed, saying, “Kid, thank you. Since that’s the case, let me show you the power of the old generation’s geniuses. Our potential is definitely not inferior to yours.”
“Good, I’m looking forward to it!” John smiled slightly, then closed his eyes, fully consuming the power of the Life, Soul, and Reincarnation Golden Wheels to condense their souls.
Crack, crack…
There were sounds of cracking as the three Golden Wheels of Laws started to develop fractures.
Even for a Creator God, it was dangerous to try to reincarnate Remnant Souls without the Power of Reincarnation.
What John was doing was going against the natural order, and it was causing immense harm to him.
He could feel a force, a backlash, attacking his soul and life force.
However, he didn’t care. If his Soul Technique dissipated, he could still kill the Soul Devouring Beast and plunder it again.
As for his life force, it was not a concern. He was sharing life with the Tree of Life, so this level of life backlash meant nothing to him.
Crack!
Suddenly, there were three sharp cracking sounds, and blood trickled from John’s mouth. The Life, Soul, and Reincarnation Golden Wheels shattered, and his soul was severely backlashed.
But fortunately, the two souls had fully condensed and would no longer dissipate.
“Kid, thanks,” Highshield spoke, finally understanding why those around John were so devoted to him, willing to sacrifice World-in-Hand without hesitation.
Now, he was also willing to give his life for him.
John wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sighed in relief, looking at the two condensed souls. “My abilities are limited. I can only do this much. Enter the Tree of Life and reshape your bodies.”
He thought for a moment and then opened World-in-Hand.
The two nodded, then flew directly into World-in-Hand, merging into the Tree of Life to reform their physical bodies.
John looked at the Sea of Laws, now almost completely consumed, and continued to devour and refine it.
“I wonder if I can still condense the shattered Golden Wheels of Laws,” he murmured softly to himself. He didn’t care about the destruction of the Golden Wheels of Laws. As long as there was enough power of the laws to support him, he could condense them again.
Time passed, and the Sea of Laws rapidly diminished.
[You have comprehended the Life Law and condensed the Life Law Golden Wheel.]
[You have comprehended the Reincarnation Law and condensed the Reincarnation Golden Wheel of Laws.]
Two prompts flashed, and he had successfully refined Kaos’s Sea of Laws, condensing the Life and Reincarnation Golden Wheels of Laws once again.
However, he hadn’t been able to condense the Soul and Order Golden Wheels of Laws.
His soul was being backlashed, and his Soul Technique had dropped below two hundred million. It seemed that in order to condense the Soul Golden Wheel of Laws again, he would need to increase his Soul Technique to over two hundred million points.
This was not difficult for him. As long as he killed the Soul Devouring Beast, he could plunder it again.
There was also a way to condense the Golden Wheels of Laws—by killing the Emperor-level stronghold of the Mechanical Insect Race.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion echoed as the surrounding space shattered. The Sea of Laws disappeared; the space could no longer support it.
He was plunged directly into the Void.
Boom, boom…
A tremendous power surged. Deep within the Void, three Creator Gods were working together to besiege Kaos.
The Sea of Laws had been refined by John, and Kaos’s strength had completely vanished. His body was shattered.
His broken body began to reform, his aura extremely weak. Upon sensing John’s presence, he coldly glared at him.
“Human, you will pay a heavy price for what you’ve done.” His furious voice echoed as he looked at the three Creator Gods. He spoke, “You want to know the coordinates of the Initial Star Domain, don’t you? I can tell you.”
“You dare!” John shouted in anger, raising his hand as a sword of light shot toward Kaos.
Whoosh!
The terrifying fluctuation of power was palpable. Before the sword of light even touched Kaos, it instantly dissipated.
He had broken through in strength, but in the face of a Creator God, he was still like an ant, utterly powerless.
“Speak!” Aoto glared at him coldly, demanding an answer.
He had once worked with Kaos, and the Mechanical Insect Race had descended into the Initial Star Domain, but he didn’t know the coordinates of the Initial Star Domain.
“The Initial Star Domain is the Galaxy Star Domain,” Kaos said without hesitation, looking at John with a mocking expression.
“Galaxy Star Domain!” The three of them gasped in surprise, having heard of this star domain.
“The Land of the Abandoned Gods!” Eluen couldn’t believe it. “That’s actually the Initial Star Domain?”
The Galaxy Star Domain was also known as the Land of the Abandoned Gods. It was said that any powerful being who ventured into that star domain would perish, even Creator Gods.
As such, the Galaxy Star Domain was considered a forbidden zone, a place that even the most powerful beings avoided.
Kaos noticed the fear in their eyes and sneered, saying, “The guarding forces there have already disappeared. It’s no longer a forbidden zone. For some unknown reason, the coordinates have vanished. Whether you can find it or not depends on your abilities.”
“Kaos, may you die a miserable death!” John cursed angrily, but he didn’t dare approach. His strength was nowhere near a match for a Creator God.
Kaos laughed coldly and said, “Human, you’ve made a grave mistake. If I were to obtain the Initial Star Domain, at least I wouldn’t destroy it. But as for these guys… Heh… The Initial Star Domain will disappear just like my star domain, completely gone!”
His expression twisted into a savage grin as he spoke coldly.
With the Sea of Laws gone, the star domain he had created would undoubtedly be destroyed.
Boom!
A deafening roar sounded as Aoto made his move, directly striking Kaos down.
“Human, hand over the Seed of Fire!” he roared, charging at John.
Aoto had created a world using the Mechanical Life Law and the Order Law. Without the power of Reincarnation, his world was the weakest among the Creator Gods. He had to obtain the Seed of Fire to complete the power of laws in his world; otherwise, it would perish.
John had already anticipated this. The moment Kaos was killed, he didn’t hesitate to flee, tearing through the Void and arriving in Kaos’s star domain.
“Bastard!” Aoto cursed angrily. Although Kaos had been killed, they couldn’t directly enter his star domain. They could only watch helplessly as John escaped.
“This human won’t get away,” Eluen said calmly, looking toward the Void. “Kaos only has two Nine-Star Emperor clones left. They can’t stop us. First, we’ll destroy his star domain. Then, the three of us will search for the coordinates of the Galaxy Star Domain. Obtaining the Sea of Laws from the Galaxy Star Domain is our priority.”
The others nodded in agreement. With a wave of their hands, they opened a portal leading to Kaos’s star domain.
Roar…
Furious roars echoed as countless powerful lifeforms descended onto Kaos’s star domain.
Aoto’s Mechanical Insect Race, Eluen’s Elemental Beasts, and Mors’s Abyss Beasts—all were Emperor-level beings above five stars, endless in number, arriving at Kaos’s star domain in an overwhelming tide.
Their goal was to destroy every planet in this domain and obtain the complete Heart of the Continent.
A normal powerful being who absorbed the complete Heart of the Continent could become an Overseer, but in the hands of a Creator God, it could directly create a life-bearing planet.
With Kaos’s Sea of Laws vanished and his main body fallen, leaving only two Nine-Star Emperor clones, he was unable to prevent any of this.
…
John arrived in Kaos’s star domain.
Boom, boom…
Thunderous booms echoed as if a calamity had descended. The sky collapsed, and numerous space rifts appeared. Countless massive beasts poured in, covering the sky and blocking the sun.
From afar, the sounds of battle and screams echoed, as these beasts were slaughtering the lifeforms of Kaos’s star domain, with Merciless leading the massacre.
Roar…
A furious roar sounded as several Five-Star Emperor beasts appeared beside him, growling and charging toward John.
He looked at the beasts with disdain, summoning the Golden Wheel of Laws and easily smashing the few gigantic creatures.
[You have killed a Five-Star Emperor Abyss Beast. Plunder talent activated.]
[Four basic attributes +50 million points, Abyss Law comprehension +1, Reincarnation Law comprehension +1.]
[You have killed a Five-Star Emperor Elemental Beast. Plunder talent activated.]
[Four basic attributes +50 million points, Basic Elemental comprehension +1, Rare Elemental Law comprehension +1.]
[You have killed a Five-Star Emperor Mechanical Beetle. Plunder talent activated.]
[Four basic attributes +50 million points, Mechanical Life Law comprehension +1, Order Law comprehension +1.]
…
Prompt messages flashed. These beasts were all subordinates of the three Creator Gods, and by killing them, he could plunder different attributes.
Moreover, there were rare attributes involved.
Reincarnation Law, Rare Elemental Law, and Order Law.
In particular, the Order Law was something he urgently needed to improve.
However, he wasn’t in a hurry to slaughter these creatures. With a thought, he entered World-in-Hand.
Above, the Star Dust shimmered, and the powerful force of the laws surged. The surrounding area was full of vitality, flourishing in a vibrant and prosperous state.
John was taken aback as he observed the changes within World-in-Hand.
He even wondered if World-in-Hand could now be compared to an actual planet.
The most significant change was the Tree of Life.
It had already been enormous, but now it was even more so, covering the sky with its lush branches and leaves, nearly stretching across half of World-in-Hand, reaching all the way to the edge of the sea.
Thoublade had been right; the Tree of Life was a perfect vessel for creating a world.
But he didn’t want to do that. His Soul Golden Wheel of Laws had been destroyed, but he had already comprehended eight Golden Wheels of Laws. Condensing the Soul and Order Golden Wheels of Laws wasn’t difficult for him.
His goal was to condense ten Golden Wheels of Laws, merge them into one, and create a world.
With this thought, he made his way beneath the Tree of Life.
