Chapter 276: The Collapse of the Continent, Sea King’s Descent

?

Boom!

The massive shield shattered, utterly ineffective as the longsword descended with a fierce

roar.

Crack!

Scales broke, blood splattered, and the guardian dragon cried out in pain.

Before John, the guardian dragon had no power to resist.

"Human, even if you kill me, I will never give you the Heart of Skyline Continent. Even if you obtain it, death awaits you!" He refused to yield, his tone icy as he threatened John.

"Let's see what secrets you're hiding," John sneered, activating his soul skill, Memory Extraction.

Buzz!

The air trembled as John easily breached the dragon's deepest memories, uncovering recent

events.

"Sea King!" he exclaimed, staring at the guardian dragon in surprise.

This dragon had struck a deal with Sea King to reserve the Heart of Skyline Continent for someone from the Sea Clan. In return, Sea King would protect him from perishing along with Skyline Continent.

"What did you do to me?" The guardian dragon's eyes widened in fury.

He realizing the human had somehow invaded his mind.

"Hmph!" John let out a cold snort, wasting no words as he activated the Immortal Art Nine Heavens Sword, aiming to obliterate the dragon.

Knowing that Sea King could enter this dimension, he needed to end this quickly.

John had already tried soul attacks, aiming to eradicate the dragon completely.

But this creature seemed impervious to soul damage.

...

Skyline Continent, Entrance to the Secret Area

A crowd of powerful beings had gathered, waiting for John to return rather than dispersing right away.

Within the Sea Clan's group, Sea King couldn't help but smirk as he noticed the Shadow Clan was nowhere to be seen.

It appeared Godslayer had indeed taken care of the Shadow Clan traitors for him.

"Milord, are you injured?" Jolyne, standing nearby, sensed an unstable aura around Sea King and asked with concern.

She had sensed Sea King engaged in a fierce battle back in the Secret Area.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury," he replied coolly. Noticing that John was still absent, he frowned and asked, "Did Godslayer successfully refine the Elemental Essence?"

Jolyne nodded, her expression uneasy. "He's powerful. I couldn't stop him," she said in a low voice.

"Hmph, no matter. He won't get the Heart of Skyline Continent," Sea King snorted, confident. The Guardian of Skyline Continent had already struck an agreement with him and wouldn't assist John. Soon enough, that human would fail and leave the Secret Area empty-handed. Jolyne frowned, a sinking feeling of dread growing within her.

Meanwhile, a few gods and Angel Race members found Cand-Dragon.

Lincoln greeted him with a respectful bow before asking, "Lord Cand-Dragon, have you seen Lord Heidern?"

"Heidern?" Cand-Dragon looked surprised, only now realizing Heidern wasn't among them. "Perhaps he's already returned to the Void Area."

"No," replied an upper-tier god, looking uneasy. "I checked the Void Area; Lord Heidern is not there. Furthermore..."

He swallowed, continuing, "I can't sense his presence. Something seems to have happened." "What?" Cand-Dragon exclaimed. Heidern was The Overseer. Even with his newly acquired Heaven and Earth Transformation, which had elevated his strength significantly, he doubted he could kill Heidern.

Not even a powerful figure from the Shadow Clan could kill Heidern-they could at best defeat him but not eliminate him entirely.

Unless another Overseer was involved.

Sea King!

The thought hit him, and he turned his gaze toward Sea King.

If anyone here had the power to kill Heidern, it would be another Overseer like Sea King.

Boom...

Suddenly, a tremendous rumble shook the continent as the earth collapsed, seawater flooding in, tearing the continent apart. Turbulent space currents surged, relentlessly devouring what remained of Skyline Continent.

"Hm?" Sea King's expression changed, anger flashing in his eyes. "That human found the guardian dragon!"

The continent's shattering meant the guardian dragon had been wounded.

"So, he's that persistent," Sea King sneered coldly. He hadn't planned on revealing his true

identity or making a move on John.

But now, it seemed he had no choice.

Buzz!

With a ripple of spatial energy, his figure vanished.

"My lord..." Jolyne tried to stop him, but it was too late.

Her face filled with panic, and she quickly approached Cand-Dragon. "Cand-Dragon, can you re-enter the final Secret Area?"

The final Secret Area was a single-use dimension; once someone exited, re-entry was

impossible.

Cand-Dragon shook his head, frowning as he asked, "What happened?"

Jolyne swallowed nervously, whispering, "Sea King is missing. I suspect he's entered the final

Secret Area to harm Godslayer. And... Sea King is an Overseer."

"What?" The gods and members of the Angel Race shouted in shock, staring at Jolyne in

disbelief. "What did you say? Sea King is The Overseer?"

"Lord Heidern! Was Lord Heidern killed by Sea King?" The gods glared at Jolyne, their fury

evident.

"Silence. This matter doesn't concern her," Cand-Dragon interrupted coldly, shooting the

gods and angels a warning glare.

The group flinched and fell silent.

Cand-Dragon, who already knew Sea King's identity, showed no surprise. He looked back at Jolyne and asked, "But wasn't The Overseer supposed to be barred from entering the final Secret Area? How did Sea King manage it?"

"I don't know either," Jolyne replied, a hint of panic in her voice, worried for John's safety. "My lord, what should we do?" Tony looked to Cand-Dragon for guidance. Cand-Dragon sighed, helplessly watching the shattered continent and the turbulent space currents raging around them. "There's nothing I can do. We can only hope that Godslayer

makes it through alive."

Whoosh...

A fierce gust swept across, pulling a few upper-tier gods into the chaotic space currents, where they were crushed by the immense spatial forces, meeting a grim end.

Panic spread across the faces of the gathered crowd.

Cand-Dragon turned to Beelzebub immediately, "Beelzebub, open a portal to the Abyss. Let everyone take shelter inside."

"Yes, my lord!" Beelzebub answered respectfully, promptly creating a portal to the Abyss.

The Abyss was an independent dimension, unaffected by the collapse of Skyline Continent. Under Beelzebub's guidance, everyone hurriedly took refuge in the Abyss.

"Jolyne, aren't you coming with us?" Cand-Dragon asked, noticing that Jolyne remained

rooted in place.

She shook her head. "I'll wait for Godslayer."

Cand-Dragon frowned. "This area is about to be consumed by spatial currents. It's dangerous

to stay here."

"Don't worry, I have the Five-Colored Celestial Robe. It'll protect me from the spatial currents," Jolyne replied calmly, her gaze fixed on the exit of the Secret Area, ignoring their

pleas.

Cand-Dragon sighed in resignation, leading the others to take shelter in the Abyss.

...

In the Secret Area, within that isolated space...

The guardian dragon cried out in pain under John's relentless assault, powerless to resist.

Its vitality, however, was immense, and John couldn't kill it instantly.

He had tried soul attacks, but the guardian dragon's soul was intertwined with Skyline

Continent itself.

Only by completely destroying the dragon's body and the continent could he finally eliminate

it.

At this point, the guardian dragon's body was in ruins, severely wounded. Despite the longsword strikes raining down, it glared at John with hate-filled eyes, growling

through clenched teeth, "Human, even if you take the Heart of Skyline Continent, you're as good as dead. Do you even understand who you've crossed? Sea King-he's an Overseer, the Sea Clan's greatest prodigy. If you kill me, he'll never let you live."

John's gaze was ice-cold, completely ignoring the dragon's taunts. He had already uncovered the dragon's pact with Sea King through his memories.

He was well aware that Sea King was an Overseer, which only strengthened his resolve to kill

the guardian dragon.

Only by becoming an Overseer himself could he truly stand a chance against Sea King.

Almost there!

Now, the guardian dragon was reduced to a single head, his body shattered. With one more

strike, John could end him entirely-and with his death, Skyline Continent would collapse

too.

John was beyond caring. The continent's fall was the inevitable result of the gods' game, and he could do nothing to prevent it.

Just as he prepared to deliver the final blow, a furious voice cut through the air.

"Godslayer, stop!"

It was Sea King.

A terrifying surge of energy rushed toward John, slamming into him with such force that he

was sent flying, utterly powerless to resist.

[You have been killed by Sea King, the Sea Clan's Overseer. The Blessed Ring activates]

The notification flashed, and John was resurrected, spitting a mouthful of blood as he glared

coldly at Sea King.

This guy's strength was terrifying; John hadn't been able to put up any resistance.

He had been a single strike away from killing the guardian dragon, but now, with Sea King's

arrival, that chance was gone.

Buzz!

An intense energy radiated from Sea King's hand, forming a realm that enveloped the guardian dragon, healing his injuries.

The dragon, regaining some strength, immediately said, "My lord, he tried to steal the Heart

of Skyline Continent! Kill him!"

"Silence!" Sea King snapped, and the guardian dragon flinched, shrinking back and

obediently falling silent.

"Godslayer," Sea King addressed John, his tone cold. "I have no desire to be your enemy.

Leave this place, and I won't trouble you further."

John frowned, looking directly at the guardian dragon, and said, "Hand over the Heart of

Skyline Continent, and I'll leave."

"Impossible," Sea King refused flatly. "I have other uses for the Heart. Godslayer, you must know by now that I am an Overseer. Do you really wish to make me your enemy?"

John didn't answer, stepping forward, his aura expanding around him. His form rapidly grew,

transforming into a colossal giant that towered over everything. "What...what is that?" The guardian dragon stared in horror, swallowing nervously as he

looked up at the giant figure that John had become.

"Hmph, so it seems we have nothing left to discuss," Sea King growled, his patience

exhausted.

He had given John multiple chances, but this human was refusing to show respect.

Whoosh!

Winds howled as Sea King's body swelled, growing to match John's colossal size. This was not Heaven and Earth Transformation-this was his true form.

Sea King now stood in his true, terrifying form: a face of jade-green with fangs, twin horns atop his head, and a massive trident clutched in his hands.
