Chapter 312: Slaying Swordman, God-level Swordsmanship Talent

[You have been killed by The Overseer Swordman. Lifesaver talent activated...]

The system prompt flashed across the screen as John was resurrected on the spot, his soul suffering a slight injury.

This guy is much stronger than that Nick.

However, during this period, John had experienced significant growth in strength. Dealing with him would be a breeze now.

Swordman looked at John, who had resurrected, without a hint of surprise.

He recognized the golden aura surrounding John as a special invincible state. Not in a rush to attack, he casually held his long sword in his arms and said with a playful expression, "Human, stop struggling. You are no match for me."

"Don't know where you get all your confidence from." John couldn't be bothered to waste words. Raising his massive sword, Chaos Force began to slowly gather, disregarding the rules of World-in-Hand.

Seeing this, Swordman was somewhat surprised but still wasn't overly concerned. He calmly said, "It's useless. Unless you can destroy my World-in-Hand, here, I am invincible."

"Heh, you're actually right about one thing." John smirked. Raising his longsword high, he shouted, "Creation and Destruction!" With a roar, his sword descended forcefully.

Boom!

The wind howled, and the longsword sliced through the air. The space itself cracked apart as endless spatial turbulence surged, wildly Devouring World-in-Hand.

"Not good!" Swordman's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly stabilized his World-in-Hand, but at the same time, his long sword flew out to meet John's attack.

"Mountain Splitter!" He bellowed, and his long sword transformed into a massive blade, slashing at the giant sword to stop John.

Boom!

Crack!

A violent crash echoed as the entire world trembled. There was a sharp sound of metal breaking, and Swordman's long sword was shattered in the clash.

But even so, it had still managed to interrupt John's strike.

Whoosh...

The howling winds continued, and the spatial turbulence raged on. The entire world seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

"Human, what kind of technique is this?" Swordman was horrified, his eyes locked onto John with fear.

Though World-in-Hand hadn't been completely destroyed, it had suffered a heavy blow.

"Blocked it, huh." John was slightly surprised, but his expression remained cold as he raised his longsword once again. "I wonder if you can block this one."

Whoosh!

Chaos Force gathered, and John raised his longsword high once more.

"Stop!" Swordman was filled with terror. He knew his World-in-Hand couldn't take another blow like that.

"Human, get out of here!" He cursed, attempting to throw John out of the World-in-Hand.

But it was too late.

"Ha, now you regret it? It's too late!" John sneered, and with another mighty swing of his longsword, the world around them began to shatter, mountains and rivers crumbling. The endless spatial turbulence rushed forward and Devoured everything.

Buzz!

Swordman's World-in-Hand was completely destroyed. Both he and John were forcefully ejected from it.

Cough! Swordman fell to his knees, still clutching the broken half of his long sword. His eyes glared at John with a mixture of fury and disbelief, his voice trembling, "N-No... Impossible..."

"Hmph, ignorant fool!" John sneered disdainfully, too lazy to waste more words. Without hesitation, he immediately unleashed his Nine Heavens Sword.

Whoosh!

A terrifying sword beam tore through the sky, slicing down with overwhelming fury.

"Damn it!" Swordman wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, feeling immense pressure. Slowly, he stood up, his eyes glaring at the roaring sword beam coming at him. His face twisted with rage as he gritted his teeth and roared, "Human, even without my World-in-Hand, I can still kill you!"

As he spoke, energy surged around him, coalescing into half of his broken sword. He suddenly released a massive aura, no weaker than John's.

"Heaven's Slash!" He yelled, his blade unleashing a sharp, blinding blade beam aimed straight at John's sword beam.

Boom!

The sword beams collided with a violent crash. The surrounding space trembled as fierce winds blew, sending the nearby Hunters flying in all directions.

John was forced to take a step back.

Swordman, however, remained firmly grounded, his grip tightening around the broken blade, veins bulging on his arm.

"Cough!" He coughed up more blood, his murderous intent growing stronger. He glared coldly at John, "Human, you're nothing but a disappointment."

"Asura Frenzy Slash!" He muttered lowly, his form vanishing as it turned into a vast cloud of blade beams, all surging toward John.

John's brow furrowed. This attack was eerily similar to his own Demon Slayer Slash.

He dared not take it head-on. The wind elements around him surged, and he used Wind Evasion, disappearing in a strange, fluid motion.

Whoosh...

Endless blade beams rained down, the howling winds tearing everything around him apart. Yet, not a single beam managed to land on John.

"Cough!" As the storm of blade beams dissipated, Swordman's form materialized once again. He coughed up more blood, his complexion growing even more pale. He was almost at his limit.

"Human, come out!" He roared angrily. With his World-in-Hand destroyed, he no longer had control over the Power of Laws. Helpless against John's Wind Evasion, he was unable to land a single blow.

"You filthy worm, do you dare face me head-on?!" He cursed, grinding his teeth, trying to provoke John.

"Heh!" John coldly laughed. His form slowly began to condense, growing into a towering giant, gazing down at Swordman like an insignificant insect. "Seems like you're nothing special after all."

Swordman swallowed nervously, his aura becoming increasingly unstable. "I will kill you. Soul Annihilation!"

With that, he sliced his broken blade across his finger, blood splattering as the air trembled. It was a soul attack!

John felt an intense sense of danger. This attack had the power to obliterate his very soul.

Not daring to underestimate it, John immediately activated Golden Lotus Manifestation.

A golden light enveloped his soul, granting him immunity to all forms of harm.

Boom!

A tremendous roar echoed in his mind as the golden light flickered. Despite the soul attack being nullified, the overwhelming shockwave still rattled his brain, causing a brief moment of dizziness and disorientation.

"Die, Heaven's Slash!" Swordman seized the opportunity, suppressing his internal injuries, and unleashed his Heaven's Slash once more. A terrifying blade beam howled as it swept toward John's towering form.

His senses cleared, and his cold, unblinking eyes locked onto the incoming attack. Without dodging, he activated his soul skill in response.

Whoosh!

Golden flames erupted, instantly consuming Swordman.

"Ah..." A blood-curdling scream echoed as his energy shattered, and the massive blade beam dissipated into nothing.

"It's over!" John's cold voice reverberated as a powerful sword intent spread, filling the air with countless flashing sword beams.

The Return of Ten Thousand Swords skill activated, and thousands upon thousands of sword beams instantly engulfed Swordman's form.

The terrifying damage from the sword techniques, combined with percentage-based life damage, shattered Swordman's body beyond repair.

Seizing the moment, John activated his soul skill.

Intimidation!

Soul Impact!

With Swordman's World-in-Hand shattered and his soul already critically damaged, without his physical form to protect him, there was no way for his soul to withstand John's onslaught.

With a mighty crash, Swordman's soul was obliterated, its flames extinguished and completely erased.

[You have killed The Overseer Swordman, gaining 26,766,000,000 experience points.]

[Plunder talent activated. You have acquired the God-level Swordsmanship Talent, The Heaven law +1%, Strength +10,000, Physical Critical Hit +10, Attack Speed +10.]

[God-level Swordsmanship Talent: Increases sword skill damage by 500%, and enhances comprehension of swordsmanship by 100%.]

"God-level talent!" John was stunned. He hadn't expected Swordman to possess a God-level swordsmanship talent.

Sword technique damage had increased fivefold, and his comprehension of swordsmanship was also enhanced by 100%.

The only downside was that he wasn't proficient with a sword himself.

However, this talent could be passed to Chris, who had inherited the Snow Mountain legacy and specialized in swordsmanship. It would undoubtedly be of immense help to him.

In addition to the God-level swordsmanship talent, John also plundered another 1% of The Heaven law.

It seemed that only by killing the The Overseer could one acquire The Heaven law. Unlike the blessing of The Heaven law, this Power of Laws was fully refined by John, with no negative effects whatsoever.

John wasn't entirely sure what The Heaven law would do, but it didn't seem like a bad thing.

Boom, boom...

At this moment, distant sounds of explosions echoed.

Ice Talker and Terran were being overwhelmed by Centeror and his three companions, their situation looking grim.

Meanwhile, the altar of Nature City had been destroyed, the city now a pile of ruins, and a new wave of Hunters emerged around them.

John paid no attention to the Hunters, maintaining his Heaven and Earth Transformation state as he charged toward Centeror and his three companions.

Flying Sword Strike!

A sword beam cut through the sky like a streak of terror, instantly hitting Centeror.

Boom!

With a thunderous crash, Centeror staggered back three steps, steadying himself. His brows furrowed as he stared at John in disbelief. "Godslayer, you actually managed to kill Swordman!"

Swordman was a late-stage two-star The Overseer. Even he would have to employ some tricks to kill someone like that, but John had done it.

This human was far stronger than the rumors had suggested!

Centeror locked eyes with John, his gaze flickering. He wanted to kill this man and claim the reward from ShadowLord God.

But Ice Talker was obviously allied with John. Unless he could trap them in World-in-Hand, there was no way to defeat them.

Centeror dared not try such a thing, as Swordman had only been able to trap John in World-in-Hand because of his own power. It had ultimately resulted in the destruction of the World-in-Hand.

This human likely had the means to destroy World-in-Hand, and Centeror wasn't willing to take that risk.

"Saukers, Thunderover, we retreat!" Centeror ordered. His goal had been to destroy Ice Talker's Nature City, and he had accomplished that. He had no desire to continue fighting.

"Centeror, I swear, Nature Clan will never forget this!" Ice Talker seethed with rage. The power of nature surged around her as hundreds of vines shot out, trying to trap Centeror.

John was somewhat surprised by Ice Talker's methods. Her style of attack was somewhat similar to Jean's.

Centeror sneered and waved his hand, instantly destroying the vines. Breaking free from the restraints, the three of them disappeared in an instant.

"My lord, are we really just letting them go?" Terran asked, his form ragged, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His voice was filled with frustration.

Ice Talker gritted her teeth and said coldly, "A three-star The Overseer like Centeror can't be stopped from fleeing. Besides, the ability I just comprehended has negative side effects, so I can't use it recklessly."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at John, her eyes flickering.

John furrowed his brow and took a step back. The look in her eyes was oddly familiar, reminding him of how Sini and the others had looked at him when they hadn't seen him for a long time.

Roar… roar...

The cries of Hunters echoed through the area. Ice Talker broke her gaze and turned her attention to the battlefield. With the city destroyed and no walls to defend, the group was being relentlessly assaulted by waves of Hunters, their situation growing increasingly dire.

With a helpless sigh, Ice Talker spoke, "Godslayer, thank you for your help this time. Unfortunately, we still failed. When the time comes to build the next city, I hope you'll assist me again."

She then reached into her pouch and pulled out over twenty Soul Essences, tossing them toward John.

These were the rewards she had obtained from slaying the Hunters' Broodmother. While they were very helpful to her, she couldn't let John leave empty-handed.
