Chapter 342: Powerful Lord God, Creation and Destruction
John's understanding of The Heaven Law had reached 53%, surpassing the strength of the Lord God-level experts.
The power of The Heaven Law coalesced around him as he once again unleashed the Immortal Art: Nine Heavens Sword.
Buzz!
The massive sword intent hummed loudly, and three enormous sword beams tore through the void, howling as they charged forward.
"Hmph, just a petty trick!" The gray-robed elder remained unfazed. He swung his spear, also condensing three spear beams that collided head-on with the incoming sword beams.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three resounding explosions echoed as the space shattered, endless spatial turbulence swirling and spreading, the terrifying energy raging through the air.
John's body was once again sent flying.
The gray-robed elder's mastery of the law was no weaker than his own, and with his powerful attributes, he could almost effortlessly crush John.
"Damn it!" John wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and glared coldly at the gray- robed elder. A powerful battle intent surged through him, and Chaos Force began to gather. "Human, you're no match for me. Accept your fate!" The gray-robed elder still wore a calm expression, his spear swinging again. Thunder rumbled, the overwhelming momentum of his attack surging forward.
Boom!
The golden light around John shattered, and he was once again struck down.
[You have been killed by a Lord God. The Lifesaver talent activates...]
A notification flashed before his eyes. He resurrected on the spot, his body enveloped in golden light once again.
This time, it was the Lifesaver talent's invincibility state.
His mind raced, and he quickly activated Diamond Body Protection once more. Two powerful laws of energy surrounded him, while elemental power gathered. Thousands of sword beams rained down, accompanied by dozens of magical attacks, all crashing toward the gray-robed elder.
Boom! Boom!
Thunderous explosions rang out as the terrifying magic force surged. The barrage of attacks overwhelmed the gray-robed elder's form.
The space shattered, and the elder was sent reeling, battered by the relentless magical assault.
"Human, useless!" The gray-robed elder snarled, forming a protective shield around himself to block John's attacks. He quickly broke free from the range of John's skills, charging forward with blinding speed.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a swirl of purple flames erupted, instantly engulfing the elder's body.
"Hellfire!" His expression shifted slightly in alarm. He tried to evade, but was consumed by the purple flames before he could escape.
John had merged with Netherworld Hellfire, and his Golden Lotus Hellfire had now evolved into Purple Flame Hellfire, dealing devastating soul damage.
The gray-robed elder's pained screams echoed from within the flames.
"Human, do you think this will be enough to defeat me?" he roared angrily, shedding his gray robe as he was engulfed by the purple flames. He pulled back, struggling to escape.
Although he had escaped the burning torment of Hellfire, the gray-robed elder's soul had already been severely damaged, and his complexion had turned pale.
"Unforgivable!" The gray-robed elder snarled in rage and howled as he charged toward John again.
John's expression remained grim, his body radiating golden light, showing no signs of retreating.
The two giants clashed once again.
Each time they collided, powerful gusts of wind were created, and terrifying energy raged across the battlefield. The space shattered, chaotic turbulence swirling and devouring everything around them.
The entire abandoned mine, along with Purple Sky City, was being slowly devoured, at risk of being destroyed at any moment.
John was in a difficult situation. He had no choice but to use all his strength to barely block the elder's attacks.
He had also tried using soul attacks.
However, the gray-robed elder's Soul Technique was on par with his own, and he had special defensive measures. Apart from Purple Flame Hellfire, ordinary soul skills couldn't even scratch the elder.
And this man even had a way to evade Purple Flame Hellfire.
Boom!
Another massive explosion resounded as John was struck down again.
[Lifesaver talent activates. Resurrection... You have been revived.] A notification flashed, and he rose to his feet, his complexion pale.
So strong!
John's expression grew heavier, feeling a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
This elder might not be as strong as the Shadow God-level Lord God, but his power far exceeded that of the Lord God puppet he had faced in The Immortals The Secret Area.
The most troublesome thing was that the elder had comprehended a new The Heaven Law, which was mysterious and difficult to deal with, making it a painful challenge for John.
At this rate, he was no match for this guy.
It's now or never!
John gritted his teeth, deciding to use World-in-Hand to trap the elder and then obliterate him using the laws of World-in-Hand.
Buzz!
The spatial energy rippled.
The gray-robed elder furrowed his brows, sensing the change, but he did not resist. Instead,
he allowed John to pull him into World-in-Hand.
"You fool, you're digging your own grave!" The elder's face twisted into a sneer, his tone mocking. For The Overseer, World-in-Hand was the most powerful tool, but also the
weakest.
As long as he destroyed World-in-Hand, John would be doomed.
"You should know that in the face of true strength, your World-in-Hand is nothing but a fragile illusion!" The gray-robed elder said, slowly raising his spear. Thunder rumbled as terrifying pressure spread, and the laws of The Heaven began to coalesce, causing the entire World-in-Hand to tremble slightly.
John frowned but showed no fear. He spoke coldly, "Feel free to try!"
"Hmph, ignorant!" The gray-robed elder sneered. The huge shadow of his spear howled through the air, like a giant dragon, instantly ripping apart the space and wildly destroying John's World-in-Hand.
John's expression grew even more serious. He coldly observed the scene and raised his United Sword high, Chaos Force gathering around him.
Buzz!
A powerful force radiated outwards, causing the The Heaven Laws around the gray-robed elder to tremble slightly.
"Hmm? What's going on?" The elder's expression shifted as he looked at John, surprised.
The longsword gleamed, and a sky full of Star Dust, mountains, and trees scattered across the
entire space.
"Creation and Destruction!" With a furious shout, he swung his longsword down with
immense force.
Whoosh...
As the longsword passed, the shattered space was instantly restored, and the crumbling edges
of World-in-Hand were brought back to their original state.
Not only that, the The Heaven Laws surrounding the gray-robed elder were instantly
shattered, completely wiped out.
"Cough..." He coughed up a mouthful of blood, his body flying backward.
This was the first time he had been injured by John's attack.
"Impossible!" He disregarded his injuries, struggling to rise from the ground, glaring at John
in disbelief. He angrily demanded, "Human, what kind of power is this?"
John's face mirrored his confusion.
He had never used Creation and Destruction to actively attack an enemy, yet somehow, it had
destroyed the elder's The Heaven Laws and severely injured him.
But John quickly realized what had happened.
Creation and Destruction were two abilities-one to reshape the world and one to destroy it.
The gray-robed elder had gained a new The Heaven Law, which was also a power of the world, and thus, Creation and Destruction naturally had the ability to destroy it. Now understanding everything, John felt his confidence soar.
"Hmph, so much for your new The Heaven Law-you're not as invincible as you think!" He
shouted angrily, once again activating Creation and Destruction.
"Damn it, let's see how many times you can fix World-in-Hand!" The gray-robed elder,
fearing John's power, refused to clash head-on with him again. Instead, he wildly began to
destroy John's World-in-Hand.
The wind howled.
Every time the elder swung his spear, terrifying power erupted.
World-in-Hand trembled, on the verge of collapse.
But the next second, John's longsword struck down, shattering the space and restoring
the World-in-Hand, making it more stable than before.
The elder's face grew grave, and he couldn't help but swallow hard.
John's abilities were too strange, far beyond his comprehension.
Boom!
Another loud crash resounded, and the elder was sent flying once again. He couldn't stop
himself from coughing up more blood, his body shrinking rapidly.
His energy reserves had been drained severely, and he could no longer maintain his God
Manifestation state.
On the other hand, John, after hours of intense combat, showed no signs of fatigue. The gray-robed elder wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with difficulty. He used
his spear to support his swaying body, staring at John with burning hatred as he shouted,
"What exactly is this ability of yours?"
Fear began to creep into his heart.
This human was too strange. He wielded several elements of The Heaven Laws and even had
the Four Basic Elemental Body.
Not to mention, he had also mastered the power of the Shadow Clan.
The most terrifying thing was the divine skill Creation and Destruction, which completely
countered his own The Heaven Law, making it impossible for him to defend himself effectively. "It's over!" John sneered, too lazy to care about the elder. With a casual wave of his hand, blood spread throughout the air as he activated the Shadow Clan's Blood Domain. Then, a massive surge of The power of laws erupted. A storm of magic skills, alongside
several sword beams, howled and slashed down, instantly enveloping the gray-robed elder. "You're strong, kid, but if you think you can kill me, you're just dreaming!" The elder shouted
angrily, unleashing an enormous surge of The power of laws around him to block the storm of incoming attacks.
Then, he forcefully tore open a space rift.
"This guy is trying to escape!" John froze for a moment before quickly realizing what was
happening.
He hadn't expected the elder to be able to tear open his World-in-Hand, and by the time he
wanted to stop him, it was too late.
Whoosh!
At that moment, the Star Dust flickered across the sky, followed by a surge of gray mist. A
strange force gathered, forcibly sealing the space rift.
It was Tracy and Sini.
"The power of Star Dust! Power of the Nine Nether!" The gray-robed elder exclaimed in
surprise, glaring at the two women who had appeared out of nowhere. "These two powers are indeed formidable. No wonder Lord Creator God ordered me to kill you
at all costs!" His face twisted with fury as he shouted, then decisively attacked, charging at
the two women.
"Be careful!" John's face changed, and he quickly shouted a warning. At the same time, his
massive body stepped forward, positioning himself in front of the women to protect them.
Whoosh!
The Purple Flame Hellfire surged once more, its violet flames rising and enveloping the gray-
robed elder.
"Dammit, get away!" The elder howled in pain, tearing off his robe and wrapping it around himself to shield against the purple flames.
At that moment, John's gigantic fist descended like a hammer.
Boom!
A deafening roar echoed as the gray-robed elder coughed up blood, his body flying backward,
nearly being killed in the process.
"Hmm? So that's it!" John's eyes lit up as realization dawned on him.
The reason the elder could resist soul attacks wasn't because he had mastered some special
ability, but because of the gray robe he wore. It had the power to resist soul attacks and could
even block the damage from Hellfire.
Now understanding this, John's confidence grew. He gathered the Purple Flame Hellfire once more, sending it crashing down.
This time, the elder was genuinely panicked. He could feel the threat to his life for the first
time.
He no longer cared about killing Sini and Tracy and instead began to retreat in a hurry.
Whoosh!
The violet Hellfire fell again, engulfing him.
His face contorted with agony, but this time, he dared not remove his robe, fearing John'sn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
next wave of attacks.
Enduring the excruciating soul-burning pain, the elder gritted his teeth and braced against
John's strike.
Whoosh!
An eerie ripple of The power of laws spread out, and time seemed to slow down.
It was the Time Law.
The elder was momentarily stunned, watching as several enormous sword beams howled
toward him. Chaos Force converged, bolstered by The Heaven Laws, and they arrived in an
instant.
