The notification flashed, and John had once again forged two Golden Wheels of Laws—the rare Abyss Golden Wheel of Laws and the Mechanical Life Law Golden Wheel.
He had now mastered twelve Golden Wheels of Laws.
Not only that, but his cultivation had also reached the Mid Eight-Star Emperor level, and his strength had undergone another significant boost compared to before.
Soon, he had slaughtered the millions of invading giant beasts on this planet, and he stored all the corpses of the beasts into his World-in-Hand.
With a thought, he activated World-in-Hand, starting to Devour and refine the planet.
Crack, crack…
This planet was much weaker than Abyss Star, and it shattered instantly, merging into his World-in-Hand.
His World-in-Hand had gained a slight improvement, but his The Overseer cultivation remained at the Eight-Star Perfection level and had not yet broken through.
“Continue!” His mind spread out as he locked onto another planet, ready to continue slaughtering beasts and refining planets.
…
[You have refined a life-bearing planet. Your The Overseer cultivation advances to Nine-Star.]
Before he knew it, over a month had passed. John had refined a dozen or so planets, and his The Overseer cultivation finally reached Nine-Star. The area of his World-in-Hand had doubled compared to before.
Moreover, his cultivation had risen to the peak of Eight-Star Emperor, and he would soon be able to break through to Nine-Star Emperor.
He had now met the conditions required to create worlds.
“First, let’s deal with the ancestor Merciless!” He thought of another avatar of Kaos, Merciless, the Merciless Ancestor.
The Merciless Ancestor was also at the Nine-Star Emperor peak, even stronger than Abyss, and the planet he resided on, Ice Soul Star, had not yet perished.
If he could refine that planet, World-in-Hand would definitely rise to the next level.
His vast spiritual power spread out, nearly covering half the star domain, and soon, he locked onto the coordinates of Ice Soul Star.
Buzz!
With a thought, the space The power of laws surged, and his figure vanished. The next moment, he appeared on Ice Soul Star.
Whoosh…
Bitterly cold winds howled, and everything around was a vast white expanse. The ground was covered with the frozen corpses of giant beasts, exuding an aura of death.
The place was eerily silent, devoid of any life force.
“The giant beasts on this planet have all been dealt with!” John was surprised. The strength of the Merciless Sect seemed to surpass that of the Abyss Organization.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a powerful aura spread from the distance, filled with the cold, killing intent. A figure swiftly approached.
John’s expression turned serious as he coldly fixed his gaze on the approaching figure.
The newcomer was an elderly man with a full head of white hair and a sharp, energetic demeanor. He carried a longsword on his back, and an aura of killing intent surrounded him.
It was the Merciless Ancestor!
“Human, you’ve come, just as I expected!” He saw John and, unsurprisingly, suppressed the killing intent in his heart, speaking calmly: “In truth, we are not to the point of ‘immortal enemies.’ We could cooperate with each other.”
“Cooperate?” John furrowed his brow, his expression cautious.
He didn’t trust a single word from this guy—not even a single punctuation mark.
He had refined the Sea of Laws, which had caused the Kaos power to drain, leading to him being slain by several Creator Gods.
Now, the Kaos Star Domain had been nearly destroyed, and Abyss had been slain by him.
The situation between him and the Merciless Emperor was already a matter of life and death, and there was no going back.
Now, suddenly, this guy was talking about cooperation? There had to be an ulterior motive.
“Human, you need not doubt me.” He looked at John, took a deep breath, and continued, “There’s no reason we can’t reconcile. From the beginning, I never intended to destroy the Banking Star Domain.”
“Hmph!” John sneered, his voice cold: “You coveted the Sea of Laws in the Galaxy Star Domain. Wasn’t your real intention to destroy the Galaxy Star Domain?”
He furrowed his brow and said, “I only want to use the power of the Sea of Laws in the Galaxy Star Domain to repair my own Sea of Laws.”
This statement wasn’t a lie.
John had already learned that Creator Gods were not invincible. The The Heaven Laws they used to create worlds continually leaked away. If the The Heaven Power disappeared, the worlds they had created would also vanish.
That was why Creator Gods killed The Overseers and Plundered the Laws of Power.
However, this method only delayed the The Heaven Power’s leakage, and could not completely solve the issue.
The only real solution was the Seed of Fire.
The Seed of Fire complemented the The Heaven Law, allowing it to stabilize and exist permanently.
Merciless Emperor continued, “I can forgive your past actions. If you assist me in recreating a world, I will help you protect the Galaxy Star Domain.”
“You can recreate a world?” John asked, his brows furrowing in confusion. He was strong—he was a Nine-Star The Overseer, but creating a world was no simple feat.
Merciless Emperor nodded and replied, “Yes, but I will need your help. I need the Tree of Life and the Seed of Fire from your World-in-Hand!”
“Heh!” John sneered, dismissively saying, “Old man, you’re just dreaming.”
“Hmph!” Merciless Ancestor coldly snorted, his expression turning ice-cold. “Kid, I’m trying to help you. You may have great talent, but creating a world isn’t easy. Let alone dealing with Creator Gods.”
“I’m willing to take a gamble!” John couldn’t be bothered to waste more time talking with this guy. If he made a move against Leisian and the Tree of Life, he was bound to die.
Buzz!
The space trembled, and the powerful The Heaven’s Laws surged. Twelve Golden Wheels of Laws flew out, roaring as they hurled toward the Merciless Ancestor.
“Hmm? You’ve forged two more Golden Wheels of Laws!” He exclaimed, his expression filled with shock.
It hadn’t been long since John had destroyed two Golden Wheels of Laws when he killed Abyss, and now he had forged two more.
What kind of monster was this human?
He dared not underestimate him. His longsword flew out from his back, icy coldness spreading as endless sword beams flickered, blocking the incoming Golden Wheels of Laws.
Clang! Clang!
The sound of repeated impacts echoed, and he was forced to retreat, shock and disbelief in his heart. However, he still managed to speak: “Kid, you’re powerful, but you’re no match for me. My strength far surpasses Abyss!”
“Is that so? I’d like to see what you’re capable of.” John sneered. He didn’t believe for a second that this guy was particularly strong.
Whoosh!
A massive shadow enveloped the area, and White Jade City was summoned by him, crashing down toward the Merciless Ancestor with immense force.
Boom!
There was a resounding explosion, and Merciless Ancestor spat out blood, sent flying backward.
“Hmph, you’re not much either.” John sneered, controlling the twelve Golden Wheels of Laws, unleashing a barrage of attacks.
The Merciless Ancestor was left in a pitiful state, almost powerless to retaliate.
“Human, do you really think I’m no match for you?” His fury rose. He forced back the Golden Wheels of Laws, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. Cold, icy killing intent radiated from his body.
Buzz…
The space hummed, and the entire Ice Soul Star trembled. Sword intent surged, and the coldness thickened in the air.
“Merciless Sword Domain!” He shouted in anger. Countless sword beams enveloped the area, locking down the entire space.
“Hmm?” John’s expression shifted slightly, his brows furrowing. His strength was being greatly restricted.
Merciless Ancestor stood amidst the endless sword beams, coldly watching him. He spoke, “Kid, in the Merciless Sword Domain, unless you are on the Path of Mercilessness, anyone trapped inside will have their power significantly reduced. Do you still think you’re my match?”
So, this was the strange ability he possessed!
John was stunned. No wonder this guy was able to slaughter the invading beasts on Ice Soul Star.
“Human, I’ll give you one last chance. Hand over the Tree of Life and Seed of Fire, and I might spare your life.”
“Dream on!” John sneered. The Golden Wheels of Laws spun around him, and White Jade City howled once more, charging at him with another relentless barrage of attacks.
“Hmph, useless. Under the Merciless Sword Domain, I am invincible.” He sneered disdainfully, easily blocking the attacks from the Golden Wheel of Laws and White Jade City.
“Frozen for miles!” He roared, countless sword beams flashing as they howled toward John, instantly engulfing his form.
Crack!
The sword beams fell, and the surrounding area was immediately frozen solid.
John sensed the impending danger and immediately activated Heaven and Earth Transformation, his body cloaked in golden light.
Boom!
But then, the golden light shattered, and countless sword beams came crashing toward him.
[You were slain by Merciless Ancestor. Lifesaver talent activated.]
The notification flashed, and he resurrected on the spot.
Merciless Ancestor already knew his tactics. The sword beams showed no sign of stopping, and they once again enveloped him.
John had no time to resist and was killed again.
“Damn it!” He felt the surge of anger within him. He could tell that Merciless Ancestor’s strength wasn’t particularly impressive, but the Sword Domain was far too strange. His strength was severely limited, and he could barely hold his ground.
He tried to escape, but the surrounding Spatial Lock prevented him from activating World-in-Hand.
“Human, you’ve made yet another wrong decision!” The cold voice of Merciless Ancestor echoed as he controlled the endless sword beams, relentlessly slaughtering.
John died repeatedly, resurrecting each time. His soul suffered backlash, his face growing pale with pain.
“Bastard!” He resurrected again, cursing under his breath. Endless black mist surged around him, and he managed to forcefully resist the sword beams.
“Hmm? Corrosive Path Black Mist! Impossible!” Merciless Ancestor gasped, looking at this scene in disbelief.
The Corrosive Path Black Mist was strange. Even his main body, Kaos, couldn’t cultivate it—only his avatar, Abyss, had a lucky chance to succeed.
How had this human mastered the Corrosive Path Black Mist?
The Merciless Sword Domain was powerful, but the Corrosive Path Black Mist devoured all power and was the perfect counter to the Merciless Sword Domain.
Buzz…
The black mist spread rapidly, engulfing the sword beams and completely dismantling them.
Merciless Ancestor’s expression turned terrified. He launched several attacks, but John easily blocked them all.
John easily dismantled the Merciless Sword Domain.
“Hmph, you’re nothing special.” He sneered, summoning a fierce wind as the Golden Wheel of Laws and White Jade City once again crashed down with intense force.
Without the Merciless Sword Domain, Merciless Ancestor was completely helpless, unable to defend himself and awkwardly dodging.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out as he coughed up blood and was blasted backward by White Jade City, severely injured.
Before John, his The Path of Mercilessness was completely ineffective.
“Die!” John’s cold voice echoed as he gathered his most powerful attack. The Golden Wheel of Laws spun wildly, shredding Merciless Ancestor.
Blood splattered as Merciless Ancestor’s body was instantly obliterated.
He quickly reformed, his face pale and his body swaying unsteadily.
John’s Golden Wheel of Laws had a powerful soul attack, and Merciless Ancestor was completely unable to defend against it.
