Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Clearing the Ruins, Rich Rewards

Johnnie directly placed the Divine and Demon Fishing Rod and the divine essence into the Canvas of Illusions.

He had no intention of using this divine essence.

Strong warriors who became gods through lightning punishment would receive a Heavenly Blessing, allowing them to understand the laws of power faster.

But those who cultivated divine essence to become gods did not get this benefit.

This divine essence could be left for the girls around him.

Crysic and Cecilia had fairly good talent, but Lina and Holly’s talent was just average.It was completely impossible for them to become gods on their own.

Especially Lina, who spend most of her time in research, and rarely logged into the game to level up.

"Master, why is there a Demon race here?" Maiev came over and asked with confusion.

Johnnie shook his head — he was just as confused.

He didn’t know much about the Demon race, only that they appeared only in the late stages of the game, when the game merged with reality.

And the disasters the Demon race brought to humans were even more terrifying — mass killings, taking over Earth.

Other races did invade Earth, but they wouldn’t slaughter humans for no reason.

To Johnnie, these Demon races were even more despicable.

"Maiev, how much do you know about the Demon race?" He looked at Maiev and asked.

Maiev thought for a moment, then said: "The Demon race is mysterious. I don’t know much about them. I just know they are strange and powerful. Even the weakest demons are stage 5, legendary beings. And every disaster on the Universe Continent has involved the Demon race."

"The disasters on the Universe Continent?" Johnnie asked in confusion.

Maiev nodded and explained: "For example, the fall of the Haldrem Empire — it was done by Demonic Creatures, but the Demon race was behind it. Also, when Demonic Creatures built an empire and then disappeared, it was also the Demon race causing trouble. It’s said that long ago, when many gods fell, it was also related to the Demon race."

Johnnie frowned — if what Maiev said was true, then this Demon race was just a bunch of troublemakers, and wherever they went, there was war.

He now suspected that the game invading Earth was also behind by the Demon race.

"Maiev, are the Demon race like us, players?" Johnnie continued to ask, because what confused him the most was that the Demon race could use some of the special items in the game, and also had the ability to resurrect after death.

It was exactly like players.

"Players? Master, you mean adventurers." Maiev thought for a moment, then shook her head: "They do look a lot like your adventurers, but I don’t know exactly what they are."

"Never mind, let’s finish the Sacred Beast Ruins quest first." Johnnie stopped thinking about this. Right now, the most important thing was to complete the Four Sacred Beasts Ruins quest and Gaia’s commission.

He continued moving forward through the magma.

The Demon race man from before was an invader, not part of the test.

The final test of the Phoenix Ruins was a stage 7, legendary Fire Demon leader.

Soon, Johnnie found this Fire Demon leader deep in the volcano’s magma.

In normal circumstances, facing this Fire Demon would be difficult, but now that he had learned the Fire-Element Law, and was deep in the magma, killing this Fire Demon was easy.

Boom!

The magma surged, and a huge Fire Demon emerged, covered in wounds, dripping red blood, its mouth wide open, spitting a ball of flame that instantly engulfed Johnnie’s body.

Damage blocked!

Damage blocked!

...

Johnnie’s head displayed a prompt, and he jumped, having learned the Fire-Element Law, he was immune to fire-based magic damage.

This Fire Demon posed no threat to him.

He lost no health, handled it easily, and killed this stage 7, legendary Fire Demon.

[Killed a stage 7, legendary Fire Demon, gained 3,200 experience points]

[Completed the Phoenix Ruins test, evaluation is in progress...]

The prompt appeared, and Johnnie checked the loot the Fire Demon dropped.

Only one City Establishment Order.

Johnnie already had 14 City Establishment Orders.

He had collected many of them before by killing monsters of the Demon level or higher in the Shadow Abyss.

This item was rare — only stage 7, legendary monsters had a very low chance of dropping it.

It was extremely hard for normal players to get just one.

"Hmm, why hasn’t the evaluation finished yet?" Johnnie murmured to himself in confusion.

The ruins test evaluation was still showing as calculating, as if there was a bug.

Could it be because of that Demon race guy?

He waited for a long time, and finally, the prompt sounded.

[Unable to specifically evaluate the pass score, temporarily set to the highest SSS rating. You have obtained 10 drops of Demon Clan Blood, 10 Fire-Spirit Pearls, and one Phoenix Pill Formula.]

"10 drops of Demon Clan Blood! That’s a great item!"

Johnnie was thrilled.

He had already learned from The Red Carp that Witch and Demon Clans were related, and he could cultivate both Witch Clan and Demon Clan blood simultaneously, with no negative effects.

He had already cultivated 100 drops of Witch Clan blood, and fully transformed it into Witch Clan Blood.

If he cultivated another 100 drops of Demon Clan blood, and turned it into Demon Clan Blood, what would happen?

Johnnie was excited.But he only had 10 drops of Demon Clan Blood, and he didn’t know if he would get more Demon Clan Blood after completing the next Sacred Beast Ruins quest.

He temporarily put them away, and looked at the other two items.

The Fire-Spirit Pearl was equally rare and precious, but now that he had already mastered the Fire-Element Law, cultivating more Fire-Spirit Pearls wouldn’t give him any more benefits.

He could give them to Crysic and Holly.

Johnnie thought of the two girls.

Crysic was a Blazing Mage, and Holly was an Evil Spirit Knight — both were powerful Hidden Classes with fire-based magic damage.

Johnnie put away the Fire-Spirit Pearl, and looked at the final reward item.

[Phoenix Pill Formula: Can be crafted by a beginner Alchemist; requires materials: Phoenix Blood, Earth-Core Lotus, Fire-Spirit Pearl, Fire-Spirit Stone, etc.]

[Effect: After consumption, increases 10,000 Magic Damage, 10% fire-based Magic Damage; each person can only take one.]

"There’s something like this?!" Johnnie was shocked.

Increasing 10,000 Magic Damage was like adding 10,000 Spiritual Attribute points, and it also added 10% fire-based Magic Damage.

This thing was absurdly powerful.

The only downside was that it could only be taken once, and the recipe for the pill was extremely rare, requiring the blood of a Sacred Beast Phoenix.

Johnnie thought of that little firebird.

She was a reincarnation of Phoenix, so getting a little blood from her shouldn’t be a problem, right?

There was another difficulty in making the Phoenix Pill — only Alchemists could craft it.

Alchemists were rare Hidden Life Classes, but Lina was an Alchemist.

This girl didn’t like to level up, and when she did log into the game, she spent most of her time doing research.

She had accidentally gotten the Alchemist profession through some happy coincidence.

Perfect.This Phoenix Pill could be given to Lina for study.

[You have passed the secret realm test. You will be teleported away.]

The prompt message appeared again, and before Johnnie could react, a wave of spatial power hit him, and he was teleported away from the Phoenix Ruins.

This was a hidden realm, and not open to the public.

But Johnnie had Illusory Body, and the Dark Forest map had already recorded the coordinates of the Phoenix Ruins — entering here was very easy.

"Johnnie, how long were you in there?"Phoenix’s voice came, and she landed directly on Johnnie’s head.

She and Flamea had been guarding here for three days, and only now did Johnnie finally come out.

Johnnie unwillingly pulled her off his head and said."You said the Phoenix Ruins were the easiest, right? That almost made me get stuck in there forever."

"Stuck in there? How could that happen? I know my own ruins, right? Just kill one stage 7, legendary Fire Demon, and you’re done."

"Hmm? You’ve mastered the Fire-Element Law!"

Phoenix felt the strong Fire-Elemental Power on him, and gasped in surprise, unable to believe it.

Johnnie explained."It was kind of a blessing in disguise. There was a Demon race powerhouse in your ruins..."

He briefly recounted what had happened in the ruins.

"There was a Demon race powerhouse?!" Phoenix spoke with a sharp tone, clearly she had no idea what was going on in her own ruins.

She looked at Johnnie and said gratefully."Johnnie, you really helped me out this time..."

Johnnie cut her off and said."Don’t say thanks. Just give me some Phoenix blood when it’s time."

"Huh? Did you get the Phoenix Pill Formula?" Phoenix became even more surprised.

Johnnie nodded."How? Isn’t that what you get for clearing the Phoenix Ruins?"

"Of course not." Phoenix explained."It’s a special hidden reward, and it’s one-of-a-kind. Only those who made a special contribution could get it. Even I can’t decide that. It should have been because you took down that Demon race powerhouse that you got the Phoenix Pill Formula."

Phoenix looked at him again and continued."If you can craft the Phoenix Pill, giving you some blood isn’t a big deal. But in return, you’ll need to give me a few Phoenix Pills."

"No problem." Johnnie agreed quickly.

This was the only special hidden reward.He thought about the other three Sacred Beast ruins and asked."Do the other three Sacred Beast ruins also have similar rewards?"

"Of course." Phoenix nodded."But how to get them, I don’t know."

Johnnie was excited.

He was the Jack who solved the Demon race problem, and only by making a special contribution did he get the Phoenix Pill Formula.

If he made a special contribution in the other three ruins, he would definitely get something similar.

Phoenix continued."Are you going to explore the other three ruins?"

"Of course." Johnnie asked."Then which one is next?"

Flamea, who was standing nearby, said."You choose. The White Spirit Tiger Ruins should be the safest, but they’re a bit far. The Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise Ruins are closer, but more dangerous."

Johnnie didn’t believe her words.

She and Phoenix had said the Phoenix Ruins were the easiest, but there had been a Demon race powerhouse inside, and he had almost died in the magma.

Luckily, his willpower was strong, and he killed the Fire Demon, learned the Fire-Element Law, and broke free from the magma’s control.

"I’ll go to the Azure Dragon Ruins." Johnnie said."I have Celestial Dragon blood, and The Red Carp, although he failed the lightning punishment, still crossed the dragon gate. He’s also a Celestial Dragon, so it should be easier for me."

"Okay, I’ll take you there." Flamea greeted Phoenix, and led Johnnie to the Sacred Beast Azure Dragon Ruins.

She said it was the closest, but it would still take three days to get there.

Johnnie didn’t want to waste time, so he instantly summoned the Void Sword, took Flamea with him, and flew with the Controlled Sword, heading to the Azure Dragon Ruins quickly.
