Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Monster Tide Ends, the Lord God Descends



Several of the city lords of the main cities had fallen, and the remaining Shadow Clan forces and Hunters posed no threat to John's stronghold.

With the protection of city walls and formations, his army had no fear of losing their lives.

The only real threat came from the Hunters' Brood Mothers, but they dared not approach the city easily.

John's body radiated thousands of flashing sword auras as he slaughtered the invading forces with fury.

The city was instantly turned into a hellish battlefield, filled with constant screams and roars of rage. Wherever he passed, only severed limbs and broken bodies remained, a sight too gruesome to bear.

"Roar..." At that moment, a series of furious roars echoed as more Hunters' Brood Mothers gathered, unleashing powerful soul attacks.

With only Jolyne and a few others, it was impossible to kill these Hunters' Brood Mothers in a short time.

The overwhelming soul attacks caused the soldiers on the city walls to writhe in agony.

"Godslayer." Ice Talker found John and spoke, "You deal with those Hunters' Brood Mothers. Leave this to me."

Cold air surged around her, snowflakes falling as the World-in-Hand rule activated. She easily slaughtered the Shadow Clan forces and Hunters within the city.

By herself, she could hold off the entrance to the mine.

"Alright." John agreed, realizing that he couldn't fully unleash his power here. He closed several spatial rifts within the city and appeared outside, locking onto the Hunters' Brood Mothers.

Hum!

The air trembled as John immediately unleashed his Soul Impact.

These ordinary Hunters' Brood Mothers, with Soul Techniques around a million, couldn't withstand his soul attack.

In an instant, large numbers of Hunters, along with the Hunters' Brood Mothers, had their souls obliterated, dying on the spot.

[You killed a Hunters' Brood Mother, gaining 267.6 billion experience points.]

[Plunder Talent Activated: Shadow Power +10, Spirit +1000, Skill Points +100.]

[You killed a Hunters' Brood Mother. The Hunters' Vengeance Mark deepens.]

...

The notifications flickered as John once again Plundered numerous attributes, and the Hunters' Vengeance Mark on him grew even stronger.

However, this had no impact on him. The Hunters were too weak; even if they were in large numbers, they posed no threat.

His experience points continued to rise steadily.

He had now reached the strength of a lower-tier god, with his level breaking past twenty thousand. The required experience for his next upgrade had reached a staggering twenty billion.

Fortunately, Shadow Star was filled with countless Hunters and a large number of upper-tier gods. Leveling up wasn't a challenge for him.

In just a short span of fifteen minutes, he had wiped out over a hundred Hunters' Brood Mothers that had gathered around, once again reaping a vast amount of Soul Essence.

In the distance, there were still a few Hunters' Brood Mothers, but they were too far away. They dared not approach the city, nor could they unleash their soul attacks.

John couldn't be bothered to deal with those creatures. Instead, he plunged into the Hunter army, massacring them without mercy.

The four spatial rifts leading into the city, opened by Eclipse earlier, had already been closed by John.

The invading Shadow Clan forces and Hunters inside the city were quickly controlled by Ice Talker and the others.

Outside the city walls, there were the Four Symbols Guardian Formation and the Seven Kill Formation, making it impossible for the remaining Shadow Clan forces and Hunters to pose any threat to the walls.

The monster tide's assault had not yet ended, but the outcome was already sealed.

Time passed second by second as everyone on the city walls continued to slaughter the Hunters and Shadow Clan soldiers.

Among them, Peter was the most excited.

He had gained insight into formations, and while his combat strength wasn't particularly impressive, the enemies killed by these formations counted as kills for him as well.

His experience points surged, and in less than a day, he broke through from a level-nine expert to a lower-tier god, skipping two levels in the process.

A massive pile of Spirit Stones had accumulated in front of him, constantly replenishing the energy consumed by the formations. Using the Seven Kill Formation, he bombarded the enemies around him with relentless force.

"Peter, how did your level increase so quickly?" Chris noticed Peter's rapid level-up and asked in surprise.

Peter wore a proud expression, excitedly answering, "Father, the monsters killed by the formations also count as my kills."

"Really?" Chris' eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Invite me to your team."

"Fine..." Peter reluctantly agreed. He was enjoying his rapid level-up. At this rate, if there were a few more monster tide attacks, he might even reach level 50,000 and break into mid-

tier gods.

But he didn't dare refuse Chris' request, so he obediently added him to the team.

"Father, I want to join the team too!" Tracy, having overheard their conversation, excitedly approached them.

Her class was Alchemist, a support class, so her combat ability wasn't very strong. While Sini had already reached lower-tier gods, Tracy was still just level nine, nowhere near a demigod. "Go away. You're a support class. You don't need a level. You'll have others protecting you." Peter was unwilling. In a team, experience was shared equally.

If Tracy joined, his share would be reduced to a third.

"Tracy, join the team," Chris said directly, pulling Tracy into the group.

"Grandpa is the best!" Tracy huffed at Peter, not hiding her discontent.

"I'm the one who's been helping you level up, and this is the attitude I get?" Peter complained, but upon noticing Chris' disapproving gaze, he wisely shut up and focused back on controlling the formations, slaughtering the Shadow Clan and Hunter forces.

The group's experience points soared.

...

In the distance, in a desolate mountain range, a group of about a dozen individuals had

gathered.

These were The Overseers under the command of various Lord Gods.

Among them were several who had previously been involved in the destruction of Ice Talker's

Nature City, including Underworld Clan Overseers like Centeror.

"My lord, should we take action?" one of them, Saukers, asked, watching as it became clear that the Shadow Clan forces could no longer destroy the city.

"Why the hurry? The monster tide assault hasn't ended yet." Centeror spoke with a harsh tone, his gaze fixed firmly on John, who was slaughtering Hunters. His expression was grim.

This human felt too strange to him.

He had seen John take the eighteen city lords of Shadow Star's main cities into his World-in- Hand, and now this human had appeared, and the World-in-Hand had not been destroyed.

Something had definitely happened to those eighteen!

Centeror couldn't help but swallow. Even he would have been in serious danger facing the

assault from the eighteen city lords.

This Godslayer was too unpredictable.

The last time, when they attacked Ice Talker's Nature City, it had been a surprise attack. While

they had destroyed Nature City, Swordman still perished.

He couldn't help but regret having made an enemy of John.

"My lord, this time we may not be able to destroy the city this human has built." Thunderover

spoke up from the side.

They had also received a mission from the ShadowLord God. Last time, the reward for

destroying Ice Talker's Nature City was a Holy artifact.

This time, however, if they could destroy Purple Sky City or kill that Godslayer, they would ben/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

rewarded with a planet.

This was why so many powerful Overseers had gathered for this mission.

"Don't rush, we'll wait and see how things unfold." Centeror glanced at the surrounding

Overseers.

These guys weren't fools, and they all had grim expressions as they watched the battlefield.

John's terrifying strength had clearly shaken them, but they weren't willing to give up the rewards promised by the ShadowLord God. They had decided to let the Hunters and Shadow Clan forces wear down John's spiritual power as much as possible.

Once the monster tide ended, they would make their move.

No matter the cost, as long as they could destroy this human's city or kill him, it would be

worth it.

A planet as a reward was something most Hunters could never hope to acquire in their entire

lifetimes.

...

Time passed, and soon twelve hours had gone by. The defense against the monster tide was

over.

[Announcement: Purple Sky City successfully repelled the monster tide. The Immortal John

has successfully established Purple Sky City.]

-

Three announcement chimes echoed through the air-Purple Sky City had been successfully

established.

The people on the city walls cheered.

"Did it really succeed this quickly? I haven't even made a real move yet."

"I feel like we've just been here as spectators."

"Yeah, most of the enemies were killed by the Godslayer or by the formations."

"Last time Nature City failed, but now Purple Sky City is the first city to succeed!"

"Indeed, following the Godslayer is the smartest choice."

Experts from various races were excited, discussing amongst themselves.

"Wait, are these Hunters still attacking?"

Even though the city had been successfully established, the Hunter army outside the walls

hadn't retreated. Instead, it was growing larger and larger.

Under normal circumstances, once a city was successfully established, the monster tide would

retreat. Clearly, the Shadow Clan was specifically targeting John.

However, with the presence of the formations, the Purple Sky City was not in any danger.

Boom! Boom!

The sound of explosions reverberated as the Seven Kill Formation was fully activated,

annihilating the Hunter army.

The Shadow Clan forces had already been wiped out, and these weak Hunters were no match

for the power of the Seven Kill Formation.

But the others weren't happy about it and quickly found Peter to protest.

These Hunters were all just experience points. With the formations in place, they could not

kill them.

Peter was reluctant, but under the pressure of the others, he begrudgingly compromised, deactivating three of the city's Seven Kill Formation barriers and leaving only one active on a

single wall.

He wasn't about to let anyone take credit for the Hunters outside the wall-those kills were

his.

John watched as the Hunters didn't retreat and made no move to intervene.

With the formations in place, these Hunters posed no threat to his city.

His concern wasn't with the Hunters, but with the Overseers.

He glanced toward a desolate mountain range not far off. He had already sensed the presence

of more than a dozen powerful Overseers gathered there.

With the monster tide over, these beings were beginning to stir.

"I wonder what will happen if I kill these guys and Plunder 10% of the power of laws?" he

thought, not the least bit afraid, but rather intrigued.

After slaying the eighteen Shadow Clan city lords, his Shadow laws had increased to 10%,

granting him mastery over the Shadow power of laws.

He speculated that once the Heaven laws reached 10%, he could similarly gain control over

the Heaven power of laws.

Boom... Boom...

Suddenly, thunder rumbled through the sky, and an immense pressure filled the air.

A colossal figure began to slowly materialize in the sky.

The Hunters charging toward the city stopped their attacks, trembling as they knelt to the

ground, their eyes filled with fervent awe and respect.

"They're back!" John furrowed his brow. He was all too familiar with this aura-it was the

ShadowLord God.

With a thought, he instantly appeared within the city, pulling everyone into his World-in-

Hand.

Only he, Ice Talker, and Terran remained on the walls.
