Chapter 102: The Spirit Fox Bloodline, Overwhelming Battle Energy
"Now it's your turn," John said, turning his gaze to White, a faint smile playing on his lips as the Sword of Divinity and Demons hovered before him.
White gulped nervously, quickly hiding behind the nearby demon guardians.
"Stop him! Quick!" he ordered frantically.
The demon guardians, though clearly displeased, moved to intercept John.
Buzz!
The sword hummed with energy as John activated Sword Mastery. The Sword of Divinity and Demons whistled through the air, swiftly cutting through the demon guardians.
Slash!
Blood sprayed as one after another, the demon guardians collapsed, lifeless. Instant kill!
These demon guardians, all early-stage fourth-tier rare bosses with health points reaching a hundred thousand, couldn't withstand even a single strike from John.
As the notification flashed on his interface, a few items dropped to the ground.
John didn't even glance at them, instead focusing on his floating sword. With effortless grace, he strolled leisurely toward White.
White, now panicking, retreated step by step, his voice trembling in fear. "Human, you can't kill me! I'm the prophesied savior of the Beast Clan! If you kill me, they won't let you go!"
John sneered. He knew full well that the Beast Clan despised White even more than he did; they were likely even more eager to see him dead.
"Black Turtle! You useless bastard, what are you doing?!" White, realizing he couldn't intimidate John, turned and screamed curses at the distant Black Turtle, who was being mercilessly pummeled by Judy.
John had no patience for White's ranting. The Sword of Divinity and Demons buzzed with energy, shooting towards him once more.
"Damn it!" White cursed under his breath, forced to defend against John's relentless attacks. Clang! Clang!
The sound of the whip clashing against the sword echoed through the air as White staggered backward, the force of each strike rattling him to the core.
He couldn't understand how this human, clearly only a fourth-tier, could inflict such devastating damage.
Slash!
-140710
The sword broke through his defenses, dealing over 140,000 damage.
White's face turned pale as he stumbled back, realizing he stood no chance against John. "Human, you can't kill me!" he pleaded desperately. "I am the prophesied savior! I can rule the Beast Clan, and with the demon race's support, you and I could conquer the entire Skyline Continent..."
"Not interested," John cut him off coldly. With a swift motion, he grabbed the Sword of Divinity and Demons, unleashing the skill Unrivaled Sword Dance.
Buzz!
The longsword vibrated violently, releasing countless sword lights that engulfed White, shredding him apart.
"No! You'll regret this, human..." White's voice was full of terror, but it was abruptly silenced as his remaining health was drained to zero.
[You have slain White, a fifth-tier epic boss of the Fox Clan, and gained 39,400 experience points.]
[Plunder ability activated, you have acquired the Spirit Fox Bloodline.]
"Spirit Fox Bloodline? What's that?" John wondered aloud, noting the notification. He opened his status to inspect the new trait.
[Spirit Fox Bloodline: A bloodline power unique to the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox, allowing the user to cultivate Beast Clan techniques.]
"Beast Clan techniques?"
John was even more puzzled. He had never heard of any cultivation techniques before.
The Spirit Fox Bloodline didn't seem to enhance any of John's attributes, making it appear not as powerful as he had hoped.
Feeling a bit disappointed, his attention shifted to the items dropped by White: a long whip and a manual.
The long whip was White's weapon, but since it wasn't enhanced by the Plunder ability, it remained a fifth-tier epic weapon.
John casually stored it away; it was of little use to him since he had never heard of any players specializing in whips.
His gaze then fell upon the manual.
[Overwhelming Battle Energy: High-grade Beast Clan technique. Requires Beast Clan bloodline to learn. Increases Constitution by 1 point and Strength by 2 points with each level. As you level up, you can unlock unique Beast Clan skills.]
"This..." John was taken aback. He had just dismissed the Spirit Fox Bloodline as useless, only to stumble upon a high-grade Beast Clan technique.
Although the attribute increase of 3 points per level didn't seem particularly powerful.
John decided to keep the manual in reserve and casually tossed it into his storage space. Then, he turned his attention to the ongoing battle.
At that moment, the demon race and Beast Clan were locked in a fierce battle, neither side able to gain the upper hand quickly.
This situation actually played to John's advantage.
The seventh-tier Demon Emperor and several sixth-tier Demon Lords were tied up by the powerful beasts, leaving the remaining demon guardians and generals vulnerable. They were
no match for John.
"Sini, Tracy, join the party," John commanded, pulling the two women into his team as they unleashed a ruthless assault on the surrounding demon soldiers.
Blades filled the air as John activated the Infinite Sword Array, engulfing the demon army
around him.
[You have slain a level 90 demon soldier, gaining 370 experience points.]
[You have slain a level 150 elite demon guardian, gaining 540 experience points.]
[Plunder ability activated: Physical Crit +1.]
[Plunder ability activated: Spirit +1.]
...
The notifications kept coming, with John's attributes steadily increasing.
The demon soldiers and guardians fell with ease, and even the stronger demon generals could
only barely withstand the sword array's assault.
But their health nearly depleted.
Hellfire erupted, scorching the battlefield. The surrounding demon soldiers were instantly
reduced to ash.
John moved like a force of nature, cutting through the demon army with relentless fury.
The Beast Clan, now under less pressure, launched a fierce counterattack.
Boom!
Suddenly, a massive wave surged as a thunderous roar echoed across the battlefield.
"Enough! Judy, if you attack again, I'll have to retaliate!" Black Turtle, now in his human form, looked disheveled, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
The effects of the Sealing Demon Pill had worn off, and his strength had returned to its full
eighth-tier power.
"You shameless old bastard!" Judy spat, cursing him but ultimately refraining from further attacks. Her anger had mostly subsided, and she turned her attention to the remaining demon
forces.
Black Turtle nodded gratefully at John, then turned to Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix. "Leave this Demon Emperor to me."
"Damn it!" the Demon Emperor cursed, realizing that with white, the Fox Clan's so-called savior, dead, Black Turtle was no longer bound. Now, no one could match Black Turtle's
strength.
He glanced at John with a cold expression and said, "Human, I know who you are. The Land of Darkness was your doing, wasn't it? This is only the beginning. Retreat!"
Realizing the battle was lost, the Demon Emperor gave the reluctant order to withdraw.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the air hummed with the sharp sound of sword energy as a streak of light shot
towards the Demon Emperor.
It was John's attack, the Flying Sword Strike.
Thud!
-1
The streak of light pierced through the Demon Emperor's body, but only inflicted a token
damage of 1 point.
John's current strength was still insufficient to truly harm a seventh-tier powerhouse.
"Hmph!" The Demon Emperor snorted in disdain, ignoring John as he turned to lead the remnants of the demon army in retreat.
"You won't get away!" Black Turtle roared, pursuing the Demon Emperor with all his might.
Splash!
Tidal waves surged, sweeping away countless demon soldiers as they were flung toward the fleeing Demon Emperor.
"Black Turtle, you've made a grave mistake!" The Demon Emperor cast a cold glance at Black Turtle. As the tidal wave crashed down, a ripple of spatial energy enveloped him, and in the blink of an eye, his figure vanished, reappearing a hundred meters away in an instant. "Spatial Teleportation!" John exclaimed, his eyes gleaming as he watched the Demon
Emperor disappear.
Spatial abilities were rare, and this one, which allowed the user to traverse space, was
especially powerful.
Once his strength improved, John resolved to hunt down this Demon Emperor and see if he could Plunder that ability.
It seemed that the demon race had several powerful beings with mastery over space. "Damn it!" Black Turtle cursed. Even with his newly acquired eighth-tier strength, sufficient
to challenge the Demon Emperor.
He was unable to keep up with him due to the latter's proficiency in spatial techniques. Frustrated, Black Turtle was forced to give up the chase.
He returned to the battlefield and approached the body of White, the Fox Clan member. Gesturing to John, he called out, "Kid, come over here."
"Hmm? Where's the bloodline?" Black Turtle suddenly exclaimed as he examined White's
corpse, his brow furrowed in confusion.
John, puzzled by the mention of the Spirit Fox Bloodline, which he had already Plundered.
He asked, "What's wrong?"
"The Fox Clan bloodline inside him is gone," Black Turtle explained, glancing at John. "If we
could have extracted his bloodline and fused it into your body, you would have become the
new savior."
"Could this be fate?" he muttered, looking up at the sky in resignation. With the savior gone, he feared that Skyline Continent might be doomed.
John rubbed his nose and replied, "Are you talking about the Spirit Fox Bloodline? I think I
already have it."
"You... you already have it?" Black Turtle was stunned. Without waiting for John to explain,
The grabbed John's arm.
And a surge of powerful water elemental energy flowed into John's body.
"How... how is this possible?" Black Turtle stared at John, his expression frozen in shock, with
even a hint of fear in his eyes.
He couldn't believe it and asked, "Kid, why do you have so many powerful forces within your
body?"
"Is there a problem?" John asked, puzzled.
Black Turtle released John's arm, his brow furrowed in deep thought. "I've never heard of anything like this before. I can't tell if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
John, however, was unconcerned. He figured it was related to his unique professions. Having
mastered three rare hidden classes, he indeed had three distinct powers within him, but they didn't seem to cause any harm.
"Perhaps..." Black Turtle hesitated, his gaze fixed on John, but then shook his head,
abandoning the thought. "Never mind, it's probably impossible anyway. Kid, there's something else I need your help with."
He pointed to the shattered Secret Area and continued, "I want to merge the Beast Clan Secret Area with your Death Land."
The Beast Clan Secret Area was completely shattered and beyond repair. John's eyes lit up with excitement at the proposition; this was a great opportunity for him.
The Beast Clan Secret Area contained the Dragon Transformation Pool, which, although not
as valuable as the Vein of the Earth, was still a rare treasure.
Not to mention the powerful beasts. Especially Ice Phoenix and Fire Phoenix, whose strength rivaled even Judy's.
John quickly asked, "What needs to be done?"
The Beast Clan Secret Area wasn't an artifact that could simply be stored away; it was a
fragmented space, making it impossible to directly integrate into Death Land.
Black Turtle explained, "We'll need the help of The Tree of Life. It can create a link between
Death Land and the Beast Clan Secret Area. Once that's done, leave the rest to me." John nodded in understanding, then focused his mind and entered Death Land, controlling The Tree of Life to establish a connection between the two spaces.
"Ice Phoenix, Fire Phoenix, I'll need your assistance," Black Turtle called out to the two
powerful beasts as a surge of immense energy emanated from him. With the help of The Tree of Life, they slowly began the process of merging the Beast Clan Secret Area with Death Land.
The beasts of the Beast Clan watched this unfold with heavy hearts, filled with reluctance but also a sense of inevitability.
The Secret Area was beyond repair, they would be vulnerable to constant attacks from the
demon race and other hostile forces.
Without its protective barriers, they can not beat the demon race.
