Chapter 228: Chapter 228: The Land of the Beast Clan, Battle Against Mid-tier Gods
?
The two men were speaking softly, but with John's Soul Technique having advanced significantly, his heightened senses caught every word clearly.
"Has the plan failed?"
John frowned slightly, yet he didn't believe that was the case.
Ben could foresee the future; his abilities were unique. However, John didn't believe in fate. No matter what, he was determined to protect Earth in this lifetime.
The group remained silent. Avis flew swiftly and soon arrived at the Land of the Beast Clan.
It was a vast forest, lush and green.
Hidden beneath the dense canopy of trees was a path leading directly into the Beast Clan's territory.
John could clearly sense the presence of more than a dozen powerful auras here, all of them belonging to beings stronger than lower-tier gods.
Among them, three stood out as the most formidable-mid-tier gods.
Sensing danger, Avis landed on the ground, not daring to venture further without caution.
"Let's go!" John led the way, stepping boldly into the territory.
Whoosh!
The view suddenly opened up into a vast plain, where the grass was tall, flowers bloomed, birds sang, and powerful beasts roamed freely.
"Tony? You dare to come back here?!" a voice roared furiously, and over a dozen beasts charged forward, surrounding the group.
They could sense two strong lower-tier god auras and couldn't help but look warily at Thunder and the death demon general standing beside John, hesitating to attack recklessly.
"Hurry, go inform Lord Dolmen," one beast, eyeing the situation with apprehension, immediately instructed a nearby companion.
Dolmen was one of the three mid-tier gods of the Beast Clan.
Tony furrowed his brow, worry etched on his face as he glanced at John and asked in a low voice, "Godslayer, are you sure you can take on a mid-tier god?"
"Relax, I've got this," John replied confidently.
At this moment, a powerful aura surged from the depths of the Beast Clan's territory, approaching rapidly and launching a direct attack at Tony.
It was none other than Dolmen, the mid-tier god of the Beast Clan.
Without hesitation, John stepped in front of Tony, unleashing his soul skill, Soul Impact.
If this opponent had weak Soul Technique and no means of defense, he would be obliterated instantly. This would also serve as a warning to the Beast Clan.
Buzz!
The air vibrated as a formidable soul force condensed into a sharp blade, piercing directly at the incoming Dolmen.
"Huh? Such powerful soul energy!" Dolmen's expression changed. He dared not take it head- on, immediately abandoning his attack to use a soul defense technique.
Boom!
A loud roar echoed in his mind. Blood spurted from his mouth as his complexion turned pale. He no longer dared to attack recklessly, staring at John in terror.
Although the soul attack didn't kill him, it severely wounded his soul.
"Who are you?" He stared at John, eyes filled with wariness. The human in front of him looked weak, but his mastery of Soul Technique was terrifyingly strong, far surpassing his own.
John glanced at him and responded calmly, "I'm the Godslayer. I'll give you a chance-release Roc and have the Beast Clan submit to me!"
"You're that Godslayer?" The mid-tier god was stunned, then his eyes flared with anger. He scoffed, "Hmph, your soul may be powerful, but do you really think you can kill me?"
Without hesitation, he attacked. His monstrous energy surged, creating a whirlwind that charged directly at John.
Boom!
[You have been instantly killed by the Beast Clan's Dolmen. The Blessed Ring has been activated.]
A message flashed, showing that John had been easily slain.
"Hmph, so this is all you amount to. What's the use of a strong soul? In front of me, you're still just a weakling." Dolmen's face twisted in arrogance. He was already aware that John possessed the Undying and Immortal talent, but such a resurrection ability was not without limitations.
Whoosh!
A longsword appeared in his hand as he prepared to strike again.
"Foolish." John let out a cold laugh, activating his soul skill, Intimidation.
Dolmen's Soul Technique level was merely a little over twenty thousand. Before John, he had
no chance to resist and was immediately paralyzed on the spot.
"Demon Slayer Slash!" John's voice echoed icily as he gripped the Sword of Divinity and Demons, unleashing the Demon Slayer Slash.
Boom!
With a single strike, the stun effect triggered, further compounded by the Intimidation skill's
effect.
Dolmen stood dazed, forced to take the blow without being able to fight back.
Boom! Boom!
Countless sword beams enveloped Dolmen, launching a relentless onslaught.
-991600
-200000000
-992470
-200000000
...
A series of damage numbers flashed. Demon Slayer Slash wasn't a conventional sword skill and didn't receive boosts from Sword Law. It inflicted 15% true damage along with 0.1% maximum HP damage per hit.
Dolmen's attributes were formidable, with his HP reaching a staggering 200 billion.
The 0.1% maximum HP damage meant each strike dealt 200 million damage. Less than a thousand hits would be enough to end his life.
"Bastard, stop!" A furious roar echoed as two more figures rushed forward, each radiating an aura as powerful as Dolmen's.
They were the other two mid-tier gods of the Beast Clan-Ricky and Mermaide.
Buzz!
At this moment, the air trembled as a powerful wave of soul energy condensed into the form
of a divine dragon, hurtling towards John.
It was a soul attack.
Boom!
A loud hum rang in John's mind, but the Crimson Karma Lotus merely shuddered slightly, effortlessly blocking the soul attack. John remained completely unscathed.
However, the assault from John's Demon Slayer Slash was interrupted. Dolmen's face turned
pale as he hastily retreated.
In just a few moments, he had already lost over ten billion HP.
If not for Ricky and Mermaide intervening in time, he would have been dead by now.
"Cough!" Ricky coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face ashen as he suffered backlash from
the soul attack.
He stared intently at John, disbelief written all over his face as he muttered, "What an unbelievably powerful soul force!"
Dolmen was shocked. He turned to Ricky and asked, "Ricky, even you can't stand up to him?"
Ricky shook his head solemnly, his expression grim.
John remained composed, looking at the three of them as he spoke again, "Now that all of you are here, I'll repeat myself-submit to me, join my ranks to fight against the gods, or I won't hesitate to annihilate you all."
"Arrogant fool!" Mermaide spat angrily, a long whip materializing in her hand as she glared
at John with hostility.
Mermaide was a woman with a pair of antlers on her head, indicating that her true form was
likely a deer-type beast.
Dolmen quickly spoke up, "This human only has a strong soul, but his physical strength is weak and insignificant. If the three of us join forces, we can definitely kill him!"
"Agreed!" Ricky nodded and immediately launched an attack on John. Dolmen and Mermaide followed closely behind, their immense demonic energy surging
through the air. The surrounding weaker lower-tier gods couldn't withstand the pressure and hurriedly retreated, distancing themselves from the battlefield.
Avis and the others quickly withdrew as well, fearing that the energy from the fight might
reach them.
Tony's face was filled with worry. "He's facing three mid-tier gods simultaneously. Could
this kid be in danger?"
Their group was too weak in comparison, with the strongest being Thunder and the death demon general, who were merely lower-tier gods. Before mid-tier gods, they stood no chance.
Ben glanced at John, stroking his beard thoughtfully as he said, "This kid has an incredibly
strong soul force, and with his Undying and Immortal talent, he just might have a chance of killing a mid-tier god."
Tony said no more, nervously watching the battlefield and silently praying.
Boom! Boom!
Several explosions echoed across the battlefield. John was sent flying backward, utterly
defenseless as he was killed in an instant.
Lifesaver talent activated. He have gained five seconds of invincibility.
Without missing a beat, he launched a fierce counterattack.
Dark and Light Magic swirled wildly, and a boundless sword aura buzzed through the air. The
overwhelming barrage of magic attacks enveloped the three mid-tier gods. Facing these powerful mid-tier opponents, John's attributes were still too low. He relied
entirely on true damage and percentage-based HP damage to hold his ground.
Damage numbers flashed repeatedly.
The three mid-tier gods' expressions turned grim.
"Shadow Power!" Ricky exclaimed in horror, "You-you're from the Shadow Clan?"
John didn't respond. Instead, his hands kept channeling magic spells, unleashing a relentless onslaught against his foes.
"Damn it, die already!" Dolmen roared furiously, charging at John head-on, braving the endless onslaught of sword beams.
[You have been instantly killed by the Beast Clan's Dolmen. Lifesaver talent activated.]
The message flashed again as his Lifesaver talent triggered for the second time, granting him
another five seconds of invincibility.
John remained calm and unruffled. Wielding the Sword of Divinity and Demons, he unleashed
yet another round of devastating attacks.
The three mid-tier gods were suffering greatly, losing nearly ten billion HP in an instant.
Dolmen, in particular, was severely wounded. If things continued like this, they would
genuinely be at risk of dying.
"Kid, I don't believe you can be invincible every time you resurrect!" Mermaide snarled, her
long whip whistling through the air as it lashed out toward John.
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed as John was sent flying backward, instantly killed once again.
[You have been instantly killed by the Beast Clan's Mermaide. The Undying and Immortal
talent has been activated...]
The prompt flashed, but this time, there was no invincibility effect.
The eyes of the three mid-tier gods lit up with hope as they launched a frenzied assault on
John.
In the blink of an eye, John had already been killed over a dozen times.
Yet he remained utterly calm. With his improved Soul Technique, he could withstand a greater
number of deaths than before.
These attacks were of little consequence to him.
But John wasn't merely taking hits; each time, he seized the opportunity to counterattack.
Occasionally, he even unleashed his Intimidation skill to immobilize Ricky or Mermaide, focusing his relentless attacks on Dolmen.
His health continued to drop, and by now, it was down to less than two million. "Human, don't push your luck!" Dolmen shouted, both fearful and furious. He didn't dare
make any rash moves against John.
It was clear that this human was targeting him specifically, trying to take him down first. With attacks of such intensity, Dolmen knew he wouldn't be able to hold out for long. What was most terrifying was John's innate combat prowess. He could always time his counterattacks perfectly during the brief moments between his resurrections, even managing to interrupt their skills.
It wasn't just Dolmen who was suffering; Ricky and Mermaide were also finding it hard to
bear.
"Attack with true form!" Ricky roared, a dragon's cry reverberating through the air as he transformed into a massive azure dragon in an instant.
Mermaide and Dolmen also immediately shifted into their true forms.
Mermaide's true form was a magnificent five-colored deer. Dolmen's true form was a colossal white ape.
Once the three of them assumed their true forms, their power surged dramatically. They
surrounded John, launching close-combat attacks, leaving him no room to retaliate.
Boom! Boom!
Explosions echoed continuously. With perfect coordination, the three mid-tier gods attacked
relentlessly. Each time John resurrected, he didn't even have a chance to counter before being killed again.
In just a short span, John had been killed over a hundred times.
In the distance, Tony and Ben watched anxiously, but there was nothing they could do.
They were far too weak. Going up against mid-tier gods was tantamount to seeking death.
Boom!
John was instantly killed once more, and his anger finally erupted.
Roar!
Suddenly, a massive dragon's roar reverberated through the battlefield. Golden light flashed
as John transformed into a mighty golden divine dragon.
