Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent - Chapter 190

Chapter 190: Chapter 190: The Divine Path Opens, Gods Descend
Elsa’s eyes lit up as she glanced at Susan.

It was then she noticed that Susan was gravely injured, on the brink of collapse, and bound by the Divine Binding Rope, utterly at their mercy.

She felt a jolt of shock; John was only at the seventh tier and hadn’t fully fused with The Immortals’ treasures, yet he had the ability to kill a demigod.

If he were to fully merge with The Immortals’ treasures and advance to become a demigod himself, how terrifying would his power be?

“You dare!” Susan realized the situation, glaring at Elsa as she threatened, “I am the daughter of the God of Light. If you dare to touch me, you will die without a doubt!”

Elsa frowned; she was well aware of the God of Light’s strength and hesitated to take action.

John spoke up, “You have already recognized me as your master. Even if you spare this woman, the God of Light will never let you go.”

“Master, I know what to do,” Elsa nodded, her gaze turning fierce as she looked at Susan.

She believed in John; once he grew stronger, he would surely surpass the God of Light.

“Elsa!” Susan panicked, swallowing hard as she looked at John. “Human, I’ll join your side! I’m powerful and can definitely help you!”

John remained unmoved, knowing that this Susan, being the daughter of the God of Light, was unreliable.

“Hmph, do you think you’re worthy to serve my master?” Elsa scoffed, gathering her light magic and striking fiercely.

Her attributes far exceeded John’s, and her damage was staggering, enhanced by a 5% understanding of The Law of Light, which included 5% true damage.

Boom!

A tremendous roar erupted as powerful light energy surged forth.

“No!” Susan let out a furious cry, her remaining health points instantly wiped out, and she met her end.

On the ground, several items scattered—two light swords, which were low-grade artifacts.

In addition, there were a few skill stones, an intermediate talent upgrade stone, and two Spirit Stones.

John collected them all.

Perfect, Tracy could refine the gods’ treasures, and he would keep the two light swords for her.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a ray of Holy Light descended, enveloping Elsa.

Killing a demigod and completing the advancement trial was a mark of her ascension to demigod status.

Bathed in Holy Light, she floated upwards, greedily absorbing its power.

After about ten minutes, the Holy Light finally dissipated, and Elsa landed, sprouting a pair of wings on her back, her aura becoming even more sacred and powerful.

“Master, I’ve broken through to demigod!” She approached John, filled with joy and excitement. “Moreover, my four base attributes have each increased by 200,000 points!”

“So much?” John was astonished; he hadn’t expected the fusion of various racial treasures and the promotion to demigod to yield such immense benefits.

He couldn’t help but feel a bit of anticipation.

Elsa gazed deeply at him, her eyes filled with more obsession.

She had thought that following John meant she would never break through to demigod status in this lifetime.

Yet, in just a few days, with John’s help, she had slain a demigod and successfully advanced to that level herself.

“Elsa, where is the seal of The Temple?” John felt the space around them and did not sense the presence of any seal.

Elsa carefully sensed her surroundings, waved her hand, and the divine aura surged, dispersing the surrounding forces.

She explained, “Master, this suppressive force is the seal that prevents entry into the world of Gods. As long as we break it, the seal of the world of Gods will be lifted.”

John nodded, saying, “I’ll let Sini out.”

“Master, there’s no need to trouble Sini. I can handle it myself.” Having broken through to demigod status, her power had increased significantly, making it easy for her to shatter the seal.

Whoosh!

Two light swords appeared in her hands.

“Slash!” she shouted angrily, bringing them down fiercely on the space.

Boom!

The space trembled, waves of terrifying energy surged, and the suppressive force was gradually dismantled.

Soon, it was completely cleared away, and the world was left pure and clear. A gentle breeze swept through, bringing an indescribable sense of relief, as if the oppressive force that had hung over her heart had finally vanished.

At that moment, several announcement sounds echoed.

[Announcement: The Temple seal has been lifted; the Divine Path to the world of Gods is now open.]

[Announcement: Killing monsters will grant ten times the experience; all hidden areas will be revealed, and maps are now accessible.]

[Announcement: The faction skill system has been activated; boss loot has been enhanced.]

…

The world of Gods erupted with tremendous tremors.

John couldn’t focus on these; a terrifying aura descended, locking onto him and Elsa.

It was the God of Light.

With the Temple seal lifted and the Divine Path opened, ninth-tier powerhouses and gods could now descend into the world of Gods.

“Master, what should we do?” Elsa was filled with panic; they had just slain Susan, the daughter of the God of Light.

Although she had broken through to demigod status, she was still two massive realms away from the God of Light and was no match for such power.

“Susan!” a shocked voice called out as a twelve-winged male angel descended, directly rushing to Susan’s corpse.

His holy aura was terrifying, vast as the sea, far beyond what Elsa could compare to.

“Godslayer, Elsa! You two did very well!” He glanced at the corpse on the ground, slowly rising as an overwhelming killing intent enveloped the two of them, almost palpable in its intensity.

John frowned deeply and shouted, “Aren’t you coming out? Do you really want to watch me get killed?”

“Huh?” The God of Light paused, his expression wary as he looked up at the sky. He thought John was summoning the woman in the green dress and coldly replied, “Godslayer, no one can save you now.”

“Then what about me?” Suddenly, a calm voice echoed as a rift in space appeared, unleashing boundless dark power, and two figures descended.

A man and a woman, both clad in black armor with a pair of black wings on their backs, exuded a terrifying aura, both being god-level powerhouses.

Especially the man, whose presence was not at all weaker than that of the God of Light.

“Michelle! Kamal!” The God of Light recognized them, gasping in shock, his expression wary as he hesitated to act.

Michelle smiled slightly and said, “God of Light, didn’t expect to see you again!”

“Stop the small talk and kill him,” Kamal urged impatiently, his temper flaring.

“God of Light, the reign of your Angel Race and the gods is coming to an end!” Michelle declared coldly, raising her hand as dark clouds loomed overhead, a terrifying aura spreading.

“Hmph, you don’t really think your remnants can shake the gods’ status, do you?” The God of Light scoffed, as a beam of Holy Light burst forth from behind him, dispersing the dark clouds and illuminating half the sky.

Before either side directly clashed, the mere collision of their auras was enough to overwhelm John and force him and Elsa to retreat repeatedly.

“Kid!” At that moment, Kamal looked at him and said coldly, “Get out of here. Stronger beings will be arriving soon; you are not fit to participate in a battle of this level.”

“Understood. Thank you, senior!” John replied, his heart stirred as he and Elsa left The Temple and descended into the world of Gods.

Whoosh!

A gentle breeze blew, and the world of Gods underwent a dramatic transformation, filled with powerful spiritual energy.

“The Divine Path has opened; I wonder if that is a blessing or a curse?” Suddenly, Ben appeared beside them, looking contemplative.

John was startled and asked in surprise, “Senior, how did you leave the Abyss?”

To pass through the Abyss, one must comprehend the power of dark laws, yet he possessed none of that.

Ben glanced at him and explained, “The Divine Path has opened, the suppressive force has vanished, and all hidden areas and maps are now accessible for free entry and exit.”

“What?” John exclaimed, his mind racing to Death Land, which was home to numerous treasures.

Especially The Tree of Life, Vein of the Earth, and Dark Sea, all coveted even by god-level powerhouses.

His heart stirred as he directly entered Death Land.

Elsa and Ben followed closely behind.

Fortunately, Death Land was peaceful, not having attracted anyone’s attention.

“Senior, is there a way to conceal Death Land?” John asked Ben.

His own strength was too weak; if other god-level powerhouses set their sights on Death Land, he wouldn’t be able to defend it.

Ben shook his head. “It’s useless. With the Divine Path open, all hidden areas and maps are accessible. But you don’t need to worry; the Dark Sea is here, and Michelle won’t let anything happen to Death Land.”

“That makes sense.” John realized that the Sea of Death was a treasure of the demon race, and with a mid-tier god like Michelle guarding it, no one would dare to cause trouble.

He thought about the treasures in his possession. With the Divine Path open and gods descending, it was no longer necessary to keep them; it would be better to let his subordinates refine them to enhance their strength.

He turned to Ben and asked, “Senior, will you refine the Beast Clan treasure, or will it be Senior Tony?”

“Huh?” Ben was taken aback, looking at him with curiosity. “Why, aren’t you going to refine it yourself?”

“I’ve already refined the Immortals’ treasures.” John’s mind sparked, and the Immortal Bone, Immortal Body, Spirit Sense, and Immortal Sword appeared before merging into his body.

“The Immortals… right…” Ben nodded, pondering for a moment before saying, “If you’re not going to use the Beast Clan treasure, then leave it for Jean. That girl has a special constitution and will attract the attention of some unscrupulous beasts.”

“Okay.” John nodded in agreement, not asking further.

Ben had mentioned that Jean could help the Beast Clan awaken their bloodline powers, and only by awakening those powers could they fully integrate with the Beast Clan treasures.

Besides that, he also had a complete set of god and demon race treasures, along with a remnant soul from the demon race.

These items were no longer necessary to keep, so it made sense to hand them over for refinement to boost everyone’s strength.

“Elsa, gather everyone!” John instructed as he made his way to the treehouse beneath The Tree of Life to retrieve several treasures.

These items had been stored in the treehouse for a while.

Soon, everyone gathered.

John handed the Beast Clan treasures to Jean and the god treasures to Tracy, enhancing their powers.

Tracy possessed a Divinity value, allowing her to refine the god treasures, but she would need to master the power of Light for complete integration.

That was something to consider for later.

He still had a complete set of demon race treasures in his hands and turned to Sara and the other eighth-tier powerhouses, asking, “Who among you will refine the demon race treasures?”

“Treasures?!” they exclaimed in unison, swallowing hard, excitement and anticipation evident on their faces.
