Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Sealing the Undead Tree, Massacring the Soldiers
Johnnie guessed that Princess Lisa was likely in Azurecloud City.
His mission to save the Haldrem Empire’s Princess Lisa was still ongoing, which meant she had not yet awakened.
The soldier stopped, staring at him coldly. He said in an unfriendly tone: "You know Princess Lisa? Who the hell are you?"
Johnnie said: "I told you I’m here to save your princess. Do you believe me?"
"Hmph. No matter what you say today, you’re going to die. Move on." He clearly didn’t believe him, thinking Johnnie was just stalling for time.
He escorted the two of them and quickened his pace, heading toward the back mountains outside Azurecloud City.
The security here was even stricter. There was a soldier stationed every few dozen meters, and hidden snipers were also present, as if guarding something.
Soon, the group stopped.
A grey wall appeared ahead, towering into the sky.
Johnnie was surprised—it wasn’t a wall, but the trunk of a tree, with a diameter close to ten meters, like a wall.
But this tree was withered and decayed, and it was filled with powerful Death Power, strange and evil.
"Master, this is the Undead Tree," Maiev’s voice echoed in his mind. "It can devour souls. You must be very careful. If your soul is devoured, you will die for sure."
Johnnie nodded slightly. A faint divine power surged from his body, and the entangling net loosened.
It was Maiev who acted, and she didn’t draw the attention of the soldiers.
"Okay, here it is." The lead soldier stopped, and without stepping forward, he pushed Johnnie and Flamea out.
"The Elder Tree, this is the soul you’re being offered as a sacrifice. Please enjoy it!" He stepped back, speaking respectfully.
Johnnie and Flamea both looked serious, watching the withered tree with caution.
Huff...
Suddenly, a thick grey vine came whistling toward them, wrapping around them.
Flamea was shocked and screamed. She was still trapped in the net, unable to break free. She shouted: "Johnnie, what are you going to do? If you get devoured by the ancient tree, we’re both dead for sure!"
Johnnie no longer pretended. He gave a slight shake, and the net loosened. Then, his Demon Wings formed behind him, and he shot upward, moving fast enough to avoid the vine’s grasp.
"You weren’t even bound?" The soldier’s face changed slightly, then he quickly regained his confidence and said coldly: "Even if you broke free from the net, what can you do against The Elder Tree? You’re still going to die for sure!"
Johnnie sneered and didn’t rush to use Canvas of Illusions. He just thought to himself, and the Seven Sword flew out. He used The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords and stabbed at the ancient tree.
Plop...
-831
-833
A few damage numbers flashed.
Johnnie was surprised. This was 1% true damage from Dark Law.
That meant the ancient tree’s defense was far beyond his attack, and it even had divine protection.
Huff...
At that moment, a gust of wind howled again, and several vines rushed forward, blocking all of his escape routes.
It was clear that the ancient tree was angry.
Johnnie didn’t dare to be careless. He activated Canvas of Illusions, and immediately a strong suction force came, several vines touched Canvas of Illusions and were directly swallowed into it.
He felt a little uneasy. Not to mention how strong this ancient tree was, just by its massive size, it might not be something Canvas of Illusions could easily swallow.
Buzz!
At that moment, a strong spatial energy fluctuation occurred. A huge vortex formed around Canvas of Illusions, and a terrifying pulling force came, violently sucking in everything around it.
Flamea was the first to be hit. She was still bound by the net and couldn’t control herself, and was directly sucked into Canvas of Illusions.
The surrounding soldiers saw this and their faces turned pale.
"Human, what are you doing?"
"Quick, stop him!"
They didn’t care about anything else and rushed forward.
"Die!" Johnnie sneered. Without the net, these guys were nothing to him.
He activated The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords, and eight flashes of cold light appeared, violently slashing.
The soldiers had no chance to fight back. In an instant, they were all slaughtered.
Roar... roar...
A series of angry roars echoed. The ancient tree struggled fiercely, and countless grey vines whistled through the air, trying to attack Canvas of Illusions, but all were swallowed into it, doing no damage at all.
And the ground beneath it trembled and cracked, with cracks spreading out in all directions, as if it was about to be pulled out by the roots.
Johnnie was stunned. Canvas of Illusions was even more powerful than he had imagined.
Boom!
At that moment, the Undead Tree tilted, and was slowly pulled out. Its massive branches also turned a dark grey, and they moved uncontrollably toward Canvas of Illusions.
Canvas of Illusions looked like an endless hole, and the huge spatial vortex violently swallowed everything around it.
The Undead Tree trembled violently, roaring loudly, as if filled with fear. It fought with all its might to resist, but it was of no use at all.
At the moment the massive branches touched the vortex, the entire tree was instantly swallowed into it.
The ground formed a massive crater, covering thousands of meters, deep and bottomless.
This was the massive root system of the ancient tree.
Johnnie was stunned, but he didn’t pay attention. He thought to himself and entered Canvas of Illusions.
Roar... roar...
A series of roars came from the painting. Several golden lights flashed, violently attacking the ancient tree.
A series of withered branches fell off.
The ancient tree was surrounded by vines, struggling desperately, but it was of no use.
Maiev also acted decisively, shooting a rain of arrows, which were infused with powerful Life Force, counteracting the Undead Tree, causing even more terrifying damage to it.
A series of damage numbers flashed above the ancient tree. Each of Maiev’s attacks could deal billions of damage.
The trunk of the tree was covered in wounds, and dark black blood flowed out.
Around it, powerful golden lights kept falling, and they were actually pushing it into the ground bit by bit.
Buzz!
At that moment, the golden lights exploded, forcefully suppressing and sealing the Undead Tree.
To kill the Undead Tree, Maiev and the Soul of The Map of Heaven and Earth weren’t able to do it yet. They could only manage to seal it.
"Human," the voice of The Map of Heaven and Earth’s soul came weakly, "sealing the Undead Tree has taken too much of my power. I’m about to fall into a deep sleep. You need to find other Map of Heaven and Earth fragments as soon as possible to wake me up again. It can also help you refine the Undead Tree..."
The voice grew weaker and weaker, and finally disappeared completely.
Consuming the Undead Tree wasn’t as easy as Johnnie had imagined.
He now had two pieces of information about Map of Heaven and Earth fragments.
One was to work with Dorian and kill Pluto.
But Johnnie didn’t trust that guy at all.
The second was to complete the quest of The Lord of the Astral City Gaia, killing The Lord of the Stellar City Grayden, which would give him information about the Map of Heaven and Earth fragment.
This wasn’t urgent. He found the illusion-bound Flamea and took her out of there right away.
The two of them landed again outside the city, in front of a massive deep pit.
"Hmm?" Flamea’s illusion faded, and she looked around warily, looking visibly shaken.
"Human, what was that space? It was so terrifying," she could feel that if Johnnie hadn’t taken her out, she would have been trapped in the illusion forever.
"Where is The Elder Tree? You dirty human, what did you do to The Elder Tree?" A chorus of curses came from the surrounding soldiers.
Flamea finally noticed the deep pit before her. The Undead Tree was gone, and her expression grew even more shocked.
Johnnie didn’t want to waste words. He said, "Don’t forget our deal. I’ll find the Saintly Lady for you, and you’ll take me to the Sacred Beast ruins."
He spoke, and immediately summoned Seven Sword and Dragon Patterned Sword. He activated The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords, and the flying swords flashed, slashing wildly at the soldiers who were rushing toward them.
Flamea quickly caught on and used Fire-Control, charging into the soldiers as well.
She was a Stage 6 rare boss at the peak, and these common soldiers were nothing to her.
But compared to Johnnie, she was still far behind.
"Evil human! We are followers of Pluto. You’re slaughtering us like this, Pluto will never forgive you," the soldiers screamed in fear, cursing wildly.
"Pluto?" Johnnie sneered. The Universe Continent had a powerful suppression force that prevented gods from descending.
Even if a god could come down, he wasn’t afraid. He had Maiev at his side.
Johnnie activated Great Transformation Sword Technique, and with a ruthless massacre, he pushed forward toward Azurecloud City.
No one could stop him. Wherever he went, there was only a trail of corpses, and the ground was stained red with blood.
Dragon Patterned Sword transformed into The Red Carp, silently cleaning up the battlefield behind him.
Johnnie and Flamea quickly reached the city walls.
The huge commotion had already alerted the city soldiers, and a rain of arrows came flying down from above.
Johnnie sneered and didn’t bother to use defensive skills. His Demon Wing appeared behind him, and he flew forward, dodging the endless arrows and charging toward the walls.
Flamea watched in admiration. She was strong, but she couldn’t fly yet.
Whoosh!
From above the walls, another massive net came down toward Johnnie—this one woven from Undead Tree vines.
Johnnie couldn’t dodge, and he was completely wrapped in it. But he showed no fear.
"Maiev!" he called out in his mind.
Buzz!
A surge of divine power erupted, instantly destroying the net.
Maiev couldn’t descend, but she could still use some of her divine power through Johnnie’s body.
And Johnnie’s attributes were strong enough to withstand that amount of divine force.
The net was destroyed, and he had no more worries behind him. He landed on the city wall and began a brutal massacre.
"Damn it, who the hell are you?"
On the wall, screams echoed. The passive damage and increased attack speed from Great Transformation Sword Technique made these soldiers easy targets.
Soon, the soldiers on the wall were wiped out, and not a single strong opponent appeared.
Johnnie directly charged into the city, and began slaughtering the civilians inside.
These people were all followers of Pluto, and he had no trace of guilt when he killed them.
"Demons! This guy is a demon!"
"Help! Where are the soldiers? Stop this guy!"
The city echoed with screams, and the civilians ran in panic, not daring to fight back.
At that moment, the city gate was destroyed, and Flamea rushed in without hesitation, joining the battle and slaughtering the fleeing civilians.
They were all followers of Pluto. If they were part of the game fusion, they would be the vanguard forces invading Earth. They had it coming.
"Human, stop!" A mighty voice roared, and a powerful aura swept through the city.
