?

Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix exchanged a glance, then sighed helplessly without answering. They were well aware of Black Turtle's vow to protect the Savior.

However, with the Fox Clan now allied with the demon race, they had become enemies of the Beast Clan.

Bound by his oath, Black Turtle could not kill the Savior and was even obliged to protect him. The Phoenixes didn't want to put Black Turtle in a difficult position.

"My Lord, where is Flower Fairy?" Ice Phoenix changed the subject, not seeing Jean, which filled him with concern.

"She's fine," Black Turtle replied, frowning as he thought of Flower Fairy. That naive little girl clearly had feelings for John.

But her fate was tied to the Savior, unless John himself could become the Savior...

"Hey, where's my reward?" At that moment, John interrupted the conversation between the beasts, looking at Ice Phoenix and asking directly.

Ice Phoenix instinctively looked at Black Turtle. He felt that saving Flower Fairy and wiping out the Fox Clan were entirely due to Black Turtle's efforts.

He didn't want this human to take the credit.

"Why are you looking at me?" Black Turtle frowned, clearly annoyed. "Since you promised him, you should keep your word."

Ice Phoenix chuckled awkwardly and whispered, "I promised him an artifact, but this guy didn't do much. What do you think?"

He subtly hinted at Black Turtle, hoping he would suggest reducing John's reward.

After a brief moment of thought, Black Turtle said, "I recall that the Sword of Divinity and Demons has yet to find an owner. Let that be his reward."

Ice Phoenix's eyes widened in shock, taking a moment to process the words before exclaiming, "My Lord, that sword was meant for the Savior! You're giving it to this guy?"

His tone was openly disdainful as he pointed a wing at John.

John wasn't pleased; this scruffy bird was really starting to irritate him.

Especially since it had killed him once before.

Black Turtle cast a disapproving look at Ice Phoenix before continuing, "The Secret Area of the Beast Clan is under your and Fire Phoenix's control. The decision is yours."

With that, Black Turtle walked over to stand beside John.

Ice Phoenix was stunned by Black Turtle's actions, which clearly indicated he was siding with this human.

He looked to Fire Phoenix for support.

But Fire Phoenix merely nodded slightly, offering no words.

Sigh.

Ice Phoenix let out a sigh, then turned to John and said, "Follow me, kid."

He spread his wings and flew deeper into the Secret Area.

John jumped onto Avis's back and followed closely behind.

Buzz!

The air around them hummed with spatial energy as they passed through a barrier. "An independent space!"

John was amazed.

This space was even more stable and hidden than the land of the Fox Clan.

In the distance, mist swirled around a small pool, emanating a powerful energy.

"This must be the Dragon Transformation Pool of the Beast Clan," John thought.

Ice Phoenix landed in front of the pool and looked at the black dragon, Avis. "You can stay in the Dragon Transformation Pool for three days, which should be enough time for you to evolve to the Legendary grade. But after three days, you must leave."

"Great!" Avis was thrilled. After a quick word to John, he dove into the pool with a loud splash.

The water roiled, and John moved closer, curious to observe.

"Kid, the Dragon Transformation Pool only works for the Beast Clan. It won't do anything for you," Ice Phoenix said, noticing John's interest.

John couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed, though he couldn't help but wonder if the pool might have some effect on the Tree of Life.

However, this is the Beast Clan's Secret Area, guarded by powerful beings, so stealing the Dragon Transformation Pool would be impossible.

Seeing Ice Phoenix standing still, John couldn't help but urge, "Where's my reward?"

Ice Phoenix frowned, sizing John up before asking curiously, "What's your relationship with Lord Black Turtle?"

"What do you mean?" John was confused.

"Wait here!" Ice Phoenix said abruptly, not wanting to engage with John further. He then dove straight into the Dragon Transformation Pool.

"Is the artifact in the pool?" John watched the churning waters, hesitating whether he should

follow.

He had a concealment talisman and an invisibility skill, making him undetectable by any beast below the seventh rank.

However, he decided against it.

He wasn't sure if the concealment talisman would work underwater or if Ice Phoenix had detection skills.

Soon, the water bubbled, and Ice Phoenix emerged from the surface.

Water droplets slid off his body, freezing in mid-air before hitting the ground. He held a longsword in his beak, and his aura had become even colder.

John's attention was immediately drawn to the longsword. The blade was long and dull, with no gleam at all. It didn't seem like an artifact.

"A sword?" John felt a bit disappointed. Longswords were weapons for warriors or knights, while he was a mage and assassin, unable to use them.

However, he still had an Origin Stone that could grant him an additional class.

If this longsword was powerful enough, he might choose to become a warrior or knight.

Ice Phoenix shook off the remaining water droplets, picked up the longsword, and handed it to John reluctantly, his expression full of reluctance. "Kid, you're lucky."

John took the longsword and examined its attributes.

[Sword of Divinity and Demons: Mid-grade Artifact]

[Requirements: Strength and Spirit above 5000 points]

[Four Basic Attributes: +1000 points]

[Additional Attribute Bonuses: Strength +2000, Spirit +2000, Mana +10000, Mana Recovery

+50 points/second]

[Attached Skills: Wrath of the Gods, Divine Punishment]

[Wrath of the Gods: Ultimate warrior skill, deals 1000% physical damage based on strength to

the target; consumes 10,000 mana, 7-day cooldown]

[Divine Punishment: Ultimate mage skill, deals 800% magic damage based on spirit to all targets within range; consumes 10,000 mana, 7-day cooldown]

[Note: The skills attached to the weapon are not affected by cooldown reduction]

[Description: This longsword has slain both gods and demons, tempered in their blood, and possesses earth-shattering power.]

A mid-grade artifact! And it doesn't have any class restrictions! John stared at the ancient-looking longsword in his hand, both surprised and delighted.

With this longsword equipped, he could use both mage and assassin skills without any

limitations.

Moreover, the attributes it added were astonishing.

The four basic attributes increased by 1000 points, with an additional 2000 points added to

both Strength and Spirit.

John speculated that the original owner of this Sword of Divinity and Demons likely possessed dual classes or the Dual Mastery talent.

The most powerful aspect of this artifact was the two ultimate skills it carried.

Wrath of the Gods and Divine Punishment.

One was a single-target physical attack, while the other was an area-of-effect magical skill.

The damage boost was 10 times the Strength attribute and 8 times the Spirit attribute. John's current Strength was at 16,637 points, and his Spirit was at 14,705 points.

If he unleashed an ultimate skill with a critical hit, he could deal over 300,000 damage.

The only downside was the long cooldown time for both ultimate skills, and the fact that

cooldown reduction didn't apply to these weapon skills.

Despite this, John was more than satisfied.

Meeting the equipment requirements, John immediately equipped the Sword of Divinity and Demons, further boosting his four basic attributes significantly.

This caused an immediate shift in the equipment leaderboard, stirring up quite a commotion.

[First Place: Sword of Divinity and Demons, Mid-grade Artifact; Owner: Godslayer]

"Look! The weapon leaderboard just updated!"

"An artifact! Another artifact has appeared, and it's a mid-grade one!"

"Owner is Godslayer? That makes sense."

"What do you mean 'makes sense'? He must be cheating! Both artifacts are related to him, and he's Level 72, a full eight levels ahead of second place. That's totally not normal."

"Excuse me, Mr. Godslayer, are you accepting any followers? I work hard, have good gear, and

can even take a Stomp to my dignity if needed."

"Mr. Godslayer, the fortune teller said I bring good luck. I can be your girlfriend, make tea,

and serve you."

"@Godslayer, I'm Toby from the Mike White Family. Let's talk. Awaiting your reply."

...

The world chat channel was buzzing with excitement. John's acquisition of the artifact made

him the center of attention once again, drawing interest from individuals and major factions

alike.

Even Toby left a message.

In the Beast Clan's Secret Area.

John paid no mind to the chatter. He looked at Ice Phoenix and asked, "Senior, I didn't just

save the Flower Fairy; I also saved your Beast Clan. Rewarding me with just one artifact seems a bit stingy. How about two more?"

Ice Phoenix, who was already feeling the pain of losing the artifact, widened his eyes in anger

at John's request. "Do you think artifacts are as common as cabbages? There are no more!"

He had never encountered someone so shameless before and immediately tried to chase John away. "Kid, you've got your reward. Now leave."

"So stingy!" John grumbled unhappily.

Ice Phoenix had mentioned earlier that the Sword of Divinity and Demons was meant for the Savior. Given that, he was sure they had prepared additional artifacts for their own rewards. Ice Phoenix was nearly driven to madness by John's words.

An artifact-this was an artifact! Even in the hands of gods, it would be a treasure.

Not wanting to waste any more breath on John, Ice Phoenix flapped his wings, creating a whirlwind, and left the area immediately.

Black Turtle and the other beasts remained in place, casting envious glances at the longsword

in John's hand.

"My lord," the succubus sidled up to Black Turtle and whispered, "Are you planning to give

up on the prophesied Savior?"

Black Turtle frowned and shot her a cold look. "Watch your words!"

She shrugged, utterly unbothered by Black Turtle's warning.

Compared to the rumored Savior, she had more faith in John.

"Kid, it's time to head back," Black Turtle said, having gathered the medicinal herbs. He

looked at John and urged him to move.

John nodded. He had initially thought about trying to subdue the beasts in the Secret Area,

but it was clear they were determined to guard this place, and Black Turtle wouldn't allow it

either. Having the help of Black Turtle and the other beasts was more than enough for now. He could always return to tame the beasts here once he grew stronger.

"Sir," Fire Phoenix stepped forward, blocking Black Turtle's path, and asked, "What about

the Flower Fairy?"

Black Turtle pondered for a moment before replying, "The fairy is safe. You don't need to

worry."

Off to the side, John was about to release Jean from the Death Land when he heard this and was taken aback.

Wasn't the old man opposed to him getting close to Jean? Why had he left Jean in the Death

Land?

John decided not to dwell on it, mentally communicating with the Death Land to bring Black Turtle and the other beasts back inside.

"Kid, stay here in the Death Land. I'll have the potion ready in half a day," Black Turtle

instructed John.

"Wait," John hesitated. Using such underhanded methods to bully a young girl didn't sit well

with him. It wasn't honorable.

He looked at Black Turtle and said, "You go ahead and start brewing the potion for Judy. I

need to talk to Yuxuan."

"Alright," Black Turtle agreed without hesitation, turning to leave.

His unexpected compliance left John feeling a bit uneasy.
