Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Massacre, The Valley of the Dead

"Stage 8, epic strong." Johnnie sensed the strength of that aura and showed no fear at all.

He had already stacked the passive damage of Great Transformation Sword Technique to over ten times, enough to deal over ten million damage.

This was still without counting the soldiers who had been killed by The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords. Otherwise, his passive damage could have stacked over a hundred times.

Even like this, it was more than enough to deal with a Stage 8, epic-level warrior.

Whoosh!

A figure appeared in the air in an instant—a dignified old man.

He looked at the dead soldiers and civilians in the city, his eyes nearly bursting with rage, furious beyond words.

"Human! How dare you slaughter the people of Haldrem Empire! You’re asking for death!" The old man roared and launched the first attack. His weapon was a long whip, which whistled toward Johnnie.

This whip was also made of Wraithroot from the Undead Tree.

Johnnie didn’t take it lightly. He activated Void Sword, and his sword slashed down.

Mountain Shatter!

Boom!

A thunderous explosion rang out, and the old man was sent flying backward. A terrifying number flashed above his head.

-204,000,000

Over 200 million damage.

"Still alive?" Johnnie was a bit surprised. The old man had taken serious damage, but he hadn’t been instantly killed.

A Stage 8, epic-level warrior shouldn’t have that much health. This old guy was strange.

At this moment, the old man’s expression was filled with shock and disbelief as he stared at Johnnie.

He should have been instantly killed, but his life-saving talent had activated. In the face of a fatal blow, there was a 1% chance of remaining with just 1 health point.

At this point, even a weak Stage 1 monster would be able to kill him with a single hit.

Run!

The old man realized how terrifying Johnnie was and didn’t hesitate at all—turning around, he tried to flee.

"Hmph, you won’t get away," Johnnie sneered, his Demon Wings slightly flapping behind him. In an instant, he appeared in front of the old man, blocking his way.

"Human, who the hell are you?" The old man cried out in fear and desperation, unable to escape from Johnnie.

He couldn’t understand—why, with the game just arrived, was there such a terrifying player?

It could only be a Stage 9 epic, maybe even a legendary-level warrior who could deal with this human.

Johnnie didn’t attack immediately. He coldly said, "You want to live? Then hand over the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady."

"The Saintly Lady?" The old man reacted, glancing at the Flamea being attacked in the city.

He hadn’t expected the human in front of him to be an ally of Flamea.

"Haha," he snorted coldly, mocking, "You want to save the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady? Too bad, you’re too late—she’s already been handed over to Razora."

Razora? The number one powerful subordinate of Pluto.

Johnnie frowned. He hadn’t expected Razora to be in the Dark Forest, but he wasn’t the least bit afraid.

He continued to ask, "Where is Razora? What are you planning to do with the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady?"

"Hmph, I’ll tell you," the old man didn’t hide anything, "Razora is in the Valley of the Dead in the Dark Forest. As for capturing the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady, it’s to help our great Haldrem Empire rise again. Human, I’ve told you everything you wanted to know. Are you brave enough to attack Razora?"

He looked at Johnnie with mockery. In his eyes, Johnnie was powerful, but definitely no match for Razora.

"Pluto isn’t even worth my attention, let alone a little guy like Razora." Johnnie had no time for words and immediately attacked, sending seven flying swords flying toward the old man.

He didn’t know what the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady had to do with the Haldrem Empire’s revival, and he didn’t care to think about it.

Plop!

-1

A pitiful damage number flashed, and the old man was instantly killed.

[You have defeated the Haldrem Empire Night Commander. Gained 38,400 experience points.]

Johnnie realized the old guy must have had some special life-saving technique to survive his instant kill.

But it was lucky that way, otherwise he wouldn’t have known where the Phoenix Clan’s Saintly Lady was.

Haldrem Empire Night Commander?

Johnnie noticed the kill message and frowned.

This Haldrem Empire was a subordinate of Pluto and would definitely hinder his progress. It seemed he had to destroy it.

But it was a pity that he had already taken on the quest to save the Haldrem Empire’s Princess Lisa. Now it looked like it wouldn’t be possible.

It was a hidden quest, and the reward must have been very generous.

Maybe he could save Princess Lisa first and then kill her later.

Johnnie made up his mind, and checked the loot from the Night Commander’s death.

A City Establishment Order, a piece of Ancient Tree Vine. That was all.

Johnnie examined the Ancient Tree Vine—it was Wraithroot from the Undead Tree, but it had no specific effects or attributes listed.

He picked it up and put it away casually.

"Kill them!"

At that moment, the sound of battle cries came from below as countless soldiers attacked Flamea.

Flamea was powerful, but even with that, she was in serious danger from the overwhelming number of soldiers attacking her.

Johnnie didn’t hesitate any longer. He acted decisively, slaughtering the soldiers.

Without any strong opponents blocking him, he moved through the battlefield like a ghost, using The Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords to kill mercilessly.

"Night Commander is dead!"

"That’s impossible! This human is a demon!"

"Hey, Pluto won’t let you live!"

...

The surrounding enemies shouted curses, but Johnnie continued to kill soldiers and civilians in the city.

These guys were weak. They couldn’t even block a single one of his attacks.

The area turned into a true hell.

Eventually, the soldiers and civilians broke down, panicking and running for their lives, trying to escape.

The city was flooded with blood, and corpses piled up.

Soon, the place was completely ruined. All the survivors fled outside the city, leaving it in ruins.

Johnnie felt much better now. This was how an Azurecloud City ruin should look.

The Red Carp was busy searching corpses and collecting loot.

Flamea, watching the brutal scene, felt a slight emotion. Then, remembering the real purpose of their mission, she asked, "Johnnie, did you find the Saintly Lady?"

Johnnie shook his head. "There’s some trouble. The Saintly Lady was taken by Razora. It’s said she’s in the Valley of the Dead."

"The Valley of the Dead!" Flamea gasped, her expression changed slightly.

Johnnie was curious. "What’s special about the Valley of the Dead?"

There were records about the Valley of the Dead in the Dark Forest map, not too far from here, but no specific information was given.

Flamea nodded, her expression serious. "It’s a forbidden area. It’s full of poisonous mists. Ordinary people can’t even enter. It’s said to be a paradise for the undead, filled with Undead monsters."

Undead monsters? That’s great.

Johnnie was excited. Killing undead would increase his Soul Intensity, boosting his Spiritual attribute.

As for Razora, he didn’t even think about him.

He looked at Flamea and said, "Don’t forget our deal. I’ll save the Saintly Lady for you, and you’ll take me to the Sacred Beast ruins."

"If you save the Saintly Lady, I’ll clear the way for you in the Sacred Beast ruins," Flamea immediately promised.

The Saintly Lady of the Phoenix Clan had another identity—Phoenix Reincarnation.

If the Saintly Lady died, the Phoenix Lord would truly be destroyed.

No matter what, she had to save the Saintly Lady.

"Okay," Johnnie said, not saying more. He looked at The Red Carp, who was still searching corpses, and said, "The Red Carp, stop wasting time. Only pick up gear of white or higher quality."

The weapons and gear dropped by the soldiers and civilians in the city were all Stage 5 and above, but most were gray quality.

Johnnie didn’t care about these things now.

The Red Carp nodded, quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and gathered a lot of powerful weapons and gear. Then, he left the city with Johnnie and Flamea, heading toward the Valley of the Dead.

Here, the monsters were much stronger—all were Stage 5 Furious Treants and Stage 6 Mutated Giant Apes.

But these guys still weren’t a match for Johnnie.

Plus, these Furious Treants were Stage 5 Wood-element monsters, which met the requirements for his The Mage of the Five Elements advanced quest.

Johnnie was excited. He swept through, trying to kill as many Furious Treants as possible.

Soon, they arrived at the Valley of the Dead.

Flamea stopped and looked at the fog-filled, poisonous forest ahead. She sighed, "Johnnie, the toxic mists here are really dangerous. They take away 100,000 Health points per second. I can’t handle it."

Johnnie frowned. His Health points had reached over 700,000. With 10% per second recovery, that only gave him about 70,000 per second. That wasn’t enough to withstand the terrifying poison.

But as long as there were Demonic Creatures here, he had nothing to fear.

The Void Sword and Seven Sword both had blood-sucking effects, allowing him to recover 25% of the damage he took.

He was dealing massive damage, and as long as Demonic Creatures were feeding him, he wouldn’t be in any danger.

Johnnie said, "You stay here. I’ll handle it."

He recalled The Red Carp and stepped directly into the Valley of the Dead.

Winds howled, and endless toxic mists surrounded him. Damage numbers flickered above his head.

[Ding! You have entered the Valley of the Dead. You are being poisoned by the toxic mists. You lose 100,000 Health points per second.]

-100,000

-100,000

...

Damage numbers kept flashing above his head, and with the healing effect being reduced, he was losing nearly 30,000 Health points per second.

If he didn’t find a monster to drain, he wouldn’t last long.

Huff...

At this moment, a loud whoosh echoed through the air. Several vines shot toward him.It was a Furious Treant.

No, it was an Undead monster!

Johnnie easily dodged the incoming vines and looked closely at the monster.

[Undead Furious Treant: Stage 6, Level 1 Elite Boss. Originally a regular Furious Treant, it mistakenly entered the Valley of the Dead. After being poisoned and dying, it absorbed Death Power and turned into a powerful Undead Furious Treant.]

These Undead Furious Treants were far stronger than regular Furious Treants.

Johnnie raised his hand, and the Void Sword appeared. He used Great Transformation Sword Technique and charged at the Undead Furious Treant.

Boom!

-263,000

A single attack dealt over 200,000 damage. This Undead Treant couldn’t survive two hits from him.

Johnnie easily cut it down.

"DryadPearl!" A pale green jade stone on the ground caught his eye. It was a rare DryadPearl. When cultivated, it could directly boost his Wood Elemental Gift.

What a nice surprise.

This was exactly what he needed for his The Mage of the Five Elements advanced quest—killing monsters of the five elements and boosting his Five-Star Elemental Gift.

He immediately put it into his Canvas of Illusions.

Whoosh...

At this moment, a series of howling sounds came from around him. More Undead monsters were coming.

They were all monsters that had entered the Valley of the Dead, been poisoned, and then turned into Undead.

There were Furious Treants, Dark Spiders, and Mutated Giant Apes.

After becoming Undead, these monsters had massive power increases, but against Johnnie, they were still no match.
