Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Ranked First, The Final Trial
?
Whoosh...
A fierce wind howled as overwhelming Power of Laws surged, and an onught of abilities rained down, engulfing Johnpletely.
Ice Talker and the others looked on nervously. Among their attackers were thirteen Overseers, most of them at the two-star and three-star levels-an intimidating force to contend with.
John could sense the immense power of these enemies. Knowing he couldn''t take them head- on, he activated his Elemental Evasion, vanishing instantly and dodging the barrage of skills. Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions rocked the World-in-Hand, causing it to tremble slightly.
The attackers froze, startled. They dared not unleash their full strength. If they identally destroyed John''s World-in-Hand, they would be forced back into The Secret Area, where they''d face Burning Sky and his group-a certain death sentence.
"Human, this is yourst chance. Don''t me us for being ruthless if you refuse," the Underworld n Overseer said coldly, his tone heavy with threat.
"As if you could actually destroy my World-in-Hand," John sneered, his gaze sharp as countless sword lights shimmered into existence. This time, he wielded the Heaven''s Power of Laws.
Whoosh!
An infinite storm of sword lights descended, tearing through the void.
"Heaven''s Power of Laws? Impossible!" several Overseers eximed, their faces darkening as they felt the overwhelming might of the attack. They mustered all their strength to defend.
But even with theirbined efforts, they couldn''t withstand the damage inflicted by Heaven''s Power of Laws. Several upper-tier gods were obliterated on the spot.
The survivors looked visibly shaken, retreating in disarray.
Yealper wiped blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression grave. "This human is far too dangerous. We can''t hold back any longer. Destroy his World-in-Hand, and we''ll deal with the rest after we get out."
"Agreed," others responded, nodding as they realized how terrifying John truly was.
Without hesitation, they unleashed their full power. Massive waves of Power of Laws surged as theyunched reckless attacks, aiming to obliterate John''s World-in-Hand.
Shadow n powerhouses joined in, using vast amounts of Undying me, detonating it with explosive force equal to that of an Overseer''s strongest attacks.
Under the relentless assault, the space within the World-in-Hand began to crack. Spatial rifts formed, and chaotic streams of energy surged wildly, further destabilizing the dimension.
Ice Talker watched with growing concern, fear evident in her eyes.
Yet John remained unperturbed. Raising his longsword high, Chaos Force swirled around him, gathering into a colossal sword light that pierced the heavens.
"Creation and Destruction!" he roared, unleashing the massive sword light with an unstoppable momentum.
The sword light, imbued with world-ending energy, cut downward in a devastating arc. But instead of further damaging the World-in-Hand, it began to repair it.
Spatial rifts closed, chaotic streams of energy dissipated, and the dimension grew even more stable, showing no signs of copse.
"What''s happening?" the attackers eximed in shock, staring in disbelief at the sight before them.
"This is absurd! Such an ability exists?" Ice Talker murmured, her face pale with astonishment. It was her first time witnessing John use Creation and Destruction.
No wonder he had been so confident, fearlessly dragging all the Overseers into his World-in- Hand.
With this ability, he was practically invincible.
"Stop standing around!" John snapped, turning to Ice Talker and the others, who were frozen in awe. "You handle the upper-tier gods. Leave the Overseers and Shadow n city lords to me." With his assurance, the others snapped out of their stupor, refocusing on the battle. Whoosh!
Golden mes erupted, engulfing everyone in their path.
"Ahhhh!" Agonized screams echoed through the dimension as the golden mes consumed the attackers, sparing no one from their relentless fury.
"Hellfire! This human can wield Hellfire as well!" Hundreds writhed in agony within the golden mes, their struggles futile. Only a handful of Overseers and Shadow n city lords managed to withstand the attack.
"Charge!" Ice Talker and the others quickly recovered from their shock,unching an all-out assault on the upper-tier gods.
John could have easily dealt with them himself, but the more enemies a participant defeated, the greater the rewards.
Roar!
A dragon''s roar echoed through the space as Cand-Dragon unleashed Heaven and Earth Transformation, reverting to his true form-a colossal dragon that spanned the entire dimension.
Though both Cand-Dragon and Jolyne were peak upper-tier gods, their strength paled inparison to Ice Talker and Terran. They could only manage to hold off some of the weaker
peak upper-tier gods.
"Human! I refuse to believe you can handle all of us!" Yealper bellowed through gritted teeth, his frustration palpable. Shadow n''s vast Power of Laws surged around him as he unleashed his full strength, abandoning any reservations.
The others followed suit, coordinating an all-out assault on John.
Faced with the overwhelming attack from over twenty enemies, even John found himself temporarily on the back foot, forced into a defensive position.
[You were killed by a Sea n Overseer. The Blessed Ring activates...]
A system notification shed. Caught off guard, John was instantly struck down by the Overseer from the Sea n. Momentster, he resurrected in the same spot,pletely unharmed.
"Damn it!" John growled, his irritation evident. With a wave of his hand, he summoned another Blood Domain.
Enveloping everyone within its crimson haze.
Before the Overseers could coordinate to break through it again, John unleashed another skill -Nine Heavens Sword.
Whoosh!
Three massive sword lights tore through the space, their sheer size blocking out the sky as they shed downward with unstoppable force.
Each sword light was imbued with the devastating power of Heaven''s Power of Laws.
Panic spread across the faces of his attackers. They knew better than to take the attack head- on, and they scrambled to dodge.
But not everyone was fast enough. Several Shadow n city lords failed to evade and were shredded by the devastating sword strikes.
[You killed a Shadow n city lord, gaining 26.766 billion experience points.]
[Plunder Talent activated: Shadow Power of Lawsprehension +1%, Constitution +5000,
Agility +5000, Strength +10,000.]
The notifications rolled in as John effortlessly dispatched several Shadow n powerhouses and a few weaker two-star Overseers.
Adding another 1% to his Shadow Lawsprehension.
The remaining enemies were thrown intoplete disarray. They could neither withstand John''s Heaven''s Power of Laws nor destroy his World-in-Hand. It became painfully clear that staying here or leaving would both lead to certain death.
"Human! Don''t kill me! I''ll surrender to you!" one of the two-star Overseers shouted in
desperation, his fear overtaking his pride.
The others cast scornful nces at him. To them, this was the ultimate disgrace. As Overseers,
protected by thews of Heaven itself, they typically didn''t even show deference to Lord
Gods. For one of them to beg for mercy from a mere human was nothing short of an
unforgivable humiliation.
"Heh, you''re too pathetic. You''re not worth my time," John scoffed, his disdain evident as he
ignored the pleas for mercy. A fierce wind roared as an overwhelming pressure filled the air. John transformed into a towering giant using Heaven and Earth Transformation, his body radiating power as waves of Laws surged outward.
Unleashing a barrage of devastating abilities imbued with Heaven''s Power of Laws, he bombarded his enemies relentlessly. They had no chance of resisting.
With thebination of his Wrath of the Gods talent and Spell Combo.
John fought with the force of an entire army.
[You killed an Underworld n Overseer, gaining 26.766 billion experience points.]
[Your level has increased to 22,081.]
[Plunder Talent activated: Heaven Lawsprehension +1%, Strength +10,000, Spirit
+10,000, Skill Points +1,000.]
The notifications shed endlessly as John easily annihted every enemy, earning a massive
amount of experience and advancing to level 22,081.
However, the road to reaching level 50,000 and ascending to mid-tier godhood remained a
distant one.
What saw the greatest improvement were his Shadow Lawsprehension and Heaven Laws
comprehension.
By defeating seven more Shadow n city lords, his Shadow Lawsprehension rose to 45.1%. At this point, only the Shadow n''s Lord God could pose a threat to him within the
n.
Meanwhile, his Heaven Lawsprehension soared by 13%, reaching 26%.
He could feel the increased ease and precision with which he wielded the Heaven''s Power of
Laws, making his techniques far more formidable.
Boom! Boom!
Thunderous sounds reverberated from the battlefield as Ice Talker and the others continued
fighting the remaining 400 elite peak upper-tier gods.
Thesebatants were the finest warriors of their respective races, and despite their efforts,
they couldn''t be defeated in a short time.
John casually collected the spoils left by the fallen enemies without inspecting them closely.
He then joined the other side of the battlefield, cutting down the remaining upper-tier gods
with ruthless efficiency.
These opponents were a valuable source of experience points.
More importantly, the top three trial participants in enemy kills would receive additional
rewards.
This time, John personally eliminated over 200 enemies. Ice Talker and Terran each took down over 100, while Cand-Dragon and Jolyne, being weaker, managed to defeat abined
total of slightly over 100.
Unlike previous trials, no trial puppets appeared during this faction challenge. Unsurprisingly, John, Ice Talker, and Terran seemed poised to im the top three spots.
"Let''s go," John said calmly, signaling the group to return to The Secret Area after
eliminating all the enemies.
...
Burning Sky and hispanions stood waiting, their expressions bored as they loitered without a target.
Suddenly, John and his team appeared, prompting immediate vignce.
"Hm? Human, you killed the Sea n, Underworld n, and Shadow n powerhouses?" Burning Sky''s eyes narrowed in surprise as he noticed only John''s group returning. Humdwar appeared slightly surprised. He was well aware of John''s abilities, which were
sufficient to kill Overseers, but his World-in-Hand shouldn''t have been able to withstand thebined assaults of those enemies.
It seemed those attackers had been too afraid to destroy John''s World-in-Hand outright.
"Human, you''re truly despicable," Humdwar growled coldly, fixing his gaze on John.
...
[The second trial is over. The Beast n faction has won.]
[All members of the Beast n faction receive 100 low-grade Spirit Stones. The top three
enemy yers are awarded 100 mid-grade Spirit Stones.]
The notification shed as the second trial concluded.
As expected, John, Ice Talker, and Terran imed the top three spots, each receiving an
additional 100 mid-grade Spirit Stones as a reward.
Burning Sky and Humdwar red at John and his team. If not for John''s maniptive tactics,
they were confident they could have also earned the 100 mid-grade Spirit Stones.
[The Secret Area''s third trial begins: The Final Showdown.] [Participants may choose to join either The Immortals faction or the Eight Lord Gods''
faction.]
[If The Immortals faction wins, participants will receive the ultimate reward. If the Eight
Lord Gods'' faction wins, participants will receive rewards specific to their respective races.]
-
The notification marked the start of the third and final trial, the most challenging one yet.
Thisst stage would pit The Immortals faction against thebined forces of the Eight Lord
Gods'' factions.
Without hesitation, John decisively chose to join The Immortals faction, throwing a taunting nce at Burning Sky and the others.
With his increased mastery of the Heaven''s Power of Laws, John was eager for a direct
confrontation with them-this time, to eliminate them once and for all.
"Burning Sky, which faction will you choose this time?" Humdwar asked, his eyes narrowing
as he turned toward Burning Sky.
Besides John, only Humdwar''s Eternal n and Burning Sky''s Witch n remained. Humdwar
had no desire to be on opposing sides with Burning Sky.
Burning Sky smirked, his gaze locking on John. "Human, how about we make another wager? Whoever loses will hand over all their Spirit Stone rewards. Do you dare?" His choice was made clear as he once again joined The Immortals faction. John frowned. It was evident that Burning Sky was deeply interested in the final reward of Then/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
