Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

"What?" Chaos exclaimed in surprise. Instinctively, he opened his eyes and was about to glance toward where Merciless Emperor stood.

Nine Phoenix hurriedly cautioned, "Don't move!"

He immediately shut his eyes again, diving deep into his senses. However, his heart was filled with shock, and he asked, "How is this possible? Could it be that Merciless Emperor has colluded with the Church of Light?"

Nine Phoenix, equally puzzled, communicated through soul transmission, "Perhaps she has sensed something."

Merciless Emperor did not cultivate the laws of The Heaven but instead followed the path of ruthlessness. Her method of cultivation was vastly different from that of ordinary Emperors.

Ordinary Emperors would be unable to detect the existence of the God-Devouring Curse.

However, Merciless Emperor's ruthlessness path might have given her some awareness.

Chaos's voice sounded again, filled with confusion, "What could the Church of Light's goal be? If an Emperor-level expert falls, they would have no way of leaving the Realm of Chaos. They would be trapped here forever."

Nine Phoenix furrowed her brow slightly, still keeping her eyes shut. As she thought about it, she transmitted, "Do you remember the rumors from before? The Church of Light is a lackey of The Heaven. Looking at it now, those rumors were true. He must have some Creator God backing him. If he wanted to leave, it would be easy for him."

"Ah, looks like there will be massive casualties this time," Chaos Emperor sighed inwardly. Everyone had already absorbed the laws of The Heaven Divine Stele and had been infected by the God-Devouring Curse. Even though he now warned them, it was too late. They could only hope for the best.

As time passed, everyone greedily absorbed and refined the power of the laws of The Heaven Divine Stele, completely unaware of the God-Devouring Curse above them.

John had not gained any enlightenment from the laws of The Heaven but had instead entered closed-door cultivation, refining the Heart of the Continent to increase his power as The Overseer.

At this moment, Anixegon slowly stood up, his immense aura surged outward, and killing intent filled the air, disrupting everyone's comprehension of The Heaven Divine Stele.

"Everyone, it's time to wake up." He spoke slowly, wearing a playful smile as he scanned the group.

By this point, the God-Devouring Curse on The Heaven Divine Stele had been completely absorbed. The Overlord and other Emperor-level experts had already fallen victim to it, and there was no longer any need for him to hide his intentions.

Everyone's enlightenment of the stele had been forcibly interrupted, their expressions dark and filled with anger as they glared at him.

John, too, was interrupted from his cultivation. He stared at Anixegon with a wary expression.

It seemed that everyone had already been affected. This person was about to carry out his plan ahead of schedule.

"Anixegon, what do you mean by this?" Overlord asked, his brow furrowed in a deep frown, staring coldly at Anixegon.

He had suspected that the Church of Light and the Celestial Vault might make a move after the enlightenment of the The Heaven Divine Stele was completed, but he never imagined that Anixegon would directly interrupt them.

He couldn't understand what Anixegon was trying to accomplish.

Anixegon maintained his faint smile, holding a small jade talisman in his hand. He spoke lightly, "I'll tell you the truth. I'm here to prevent you all from leaving the Realm of Chaos. As long as I'm here, none of you will be able to leave!"

A cold and sinister glint flickered across his face, and the powerful light of The Heaven laws surged from his palm. Cracks began to form on the jade talisman.

"The Heaven Jade Talisman!" Overlord's gaze locked on the talisman, his expression changing slightly.

It dawned on him that the The Heaven Jade Talisman and the The Heaven Divine Stele were connected, which explained why Anixegon could summon the Divine Stele.

But the The Heaven Jade Talisman only appeared when one had completely mastered the laws of The Heaven in this world. How did Anixegon come to possess it?

Crack... crack...

Suddenly, the sound of shattering filled the air. The The Heaven Divine Stele also began to crack, with fissures spreading across its surface.

"Not good! This guy is trying to destroy the The Heaven Divine Stele!" someone shouted, realizing the gravity of the situation.

"Anixegon, you dare!" Overlord roared in fury. His body exuded a vast aura of laws as he moved in a blur, charging directly at Anixegon.

But in the end, he was still a step too slow.

"Shatter!" Anixegon bellowed, his grip tightening on the jade talisman. The talisman instantly shattered.

Boom!

A deafening explosion rang out as the massive The Heaven Divine Stele exploded along with it. The terrifying power of The Heaven laws ravaged the surroundings, causing the area to collapse.

The shattered pieces of the stele scattered, plummeting into the Void.

At the sight of this, everyone rushed forward, scrambling to seize the broken pieces of the stele. A chaotic battle broke out.

"Damn it! This is mine!"

"You think you can get the The Heaven Divine Stele? Know your place!"

...

Angry shouts echoed through the air as many of the powerful experts began fighting each other.

Even though the The Heaven Divine Stele had been shattered, it still contained immense laws of The Heaven. If they could get their hands on a piece and gain some understanding, it would be an invaluable treasure.

A fist-sized shard of the broken stele whizzed past John's side. Most of the fighters had focused their attention on the massive pieces of the stele and hadn't noticed him.

In a flash, John intercepted the shard, storing it in his World-in-Hand. He also warned Sini and the others not to absorb the The Heaven laws from it.

He wasn't sure if it still contained the God-Devouring Curse.

"Stop right there!" Overlord's thunderous voice rang out. A terrifying pressure spread from him, instantly overwhelming everyone in the vicinity.

The group fell silent, not daring to make another move. They only glared greedily at the few individuals who had managed to snatch pieces of the The Heaven Divine Stele, their eyes filled with envy and desire.

Overlord's face twisted with disdain as he coldly remarked, "Anixegon, do you think that with such despicable methods, you can trap me? Let me tell you, with my current strength, breaking this space will be a piece of cake."

A powerful aura surged around him, his hair and beard whipping in the air as confidence radiated from him.

"Is that so?" Anixegon remained unfazed, his gaze shifting toward the Celestial Vault. Without hesitation, he commanded, "Attack!"

In a flash, he led the Church of Light's experts as they swiftly retreated to a distance.

At the same time, Celestial Vault produced a longsword in his hand, swiftly slicing through the air.

Whoosh!

The surrounding space shattered, and a rift appeared in the fabric of reality. As the rift expanded, a massive number of Black magicians emerged—over a hundred thousand in total. They had already set up the Demon's Sky Formation, which immediately enveloped everyone, covering thousands of miles in all directions.

Boom!

A deafening roar shook the ground as the oppressive force of the dark The Heaven laws surged, isolating the space around them.

A sense of panic spread among the crowd as they felt the terrifying aura radiating from the formation. Even the Nine-Star experts couldn't hope to withstand it.

Fortunately, there were still over twenty Emperor-level experts present. It would be easy for them to break through the Demon's Sky Formation if they worked together.

At this moment, Nine Phoenix and Chaos seized the opportunity, quickly moving toward John's side.

Their faces were filled with worry. Under normal circumstances, such a number of Emperor-level experts would never fear the Demon's Sky Formation.

But now, Overlord and the others had already been infected by the God-Devouring Curse and had no idea. If it suddenly erupted, the consequences could be disastrous.

"John, if there's a chance, you must escape immediately," Nine Phoenix instructed with urgency.

John nodded, his gaze turning toward the Celestial Vault.

It was clear now that he had colluded with the Church of Light. But John had also been cursed by the God-Devouring Curse, which meant Anixegon had likely plotted against him as well.

"Hmph, Celestial Vault, do you think this Demon's Sky Formation can trap us?" one of the experts sneered dismissively. He, too, was an Emperor-level expert at the early stage of the First Star, known as Farhigh.

With that, he summoned a long staff, its surface gleaming with golden light. A gust of wind whipped up as he swung it forcefully toward the Demon's Sky Formation.

Boom!

The entire formation trembled violently, nearly shattering apart.

The Black magicians who had set up the Demon's Sky Formation were hit by the backlash, coughing up blood.

The others quickly came to their senses and began concentrating their most powerful attacks, launching them toward the formation in an attempt to break it.

Celestial Vault's expression was grim as he looked at Anixegon, his voice laced with anger. "Why aren't you making your move yet?"

The Demon's Sky Formation could not withstand the barrage from so many powerful experts.

Anixegon remained calm, unfazed by the situation. He waved his hand lazily, speaking softly, "Go!"

At his command, more than thirty thousand Nine-Star experts from the Church of Light immediately joined in at the formation's core. The immense power of light and The Heaven laws began to gather, flooding into the Demon's Sky Formation.

Buzz!

Within the formation, the forces of light and darkness intertwined, forming an enormous net that became even more solid. It was now able to hold off the combined assault from several Emperor-level experts.

"The Demon's Sky Formation can actually merge the power of The Heaven laws with light?" someone exclaimed in disbelief.

The Demon's Sky Formation represented darkness, and the light attribute was an entirely different force.

Previously, Celestial Vault and Anixegon had worked together before, but they had never fused their powers to form the Demon's Sky Formation. It was clear that they had been hiding their true capabilities.

Boom... Boom...

Thunder rumbled overhead as the Demon's Sky Formation, now enhanced by the power of The Heaven's light laws, grew even more powerful. Not even Emperor-level experts could easily break through it.

The crowd's expressions shifted slightly, and they all turned their gazes toward Overlord and Merciless Emperor.

They could feel the terrifying aura emanating from the Demon's Sky Formation, and now, the two of them were their only hope.

"Heavenly Demon, descend!" Celestial Vault and Wrath of the Heavens roared in unison. Inside the formation, endless dark The Heaven laws and the light laws fused together, shaping seven enormous Heavenly Demons. The forces of light and evil intertwined in a bizarre and unsettling display.

"Die!" Celestial Vault bellowed as he controlled one of the Heavenly Demons, sending it directly toward John.

"Not good, be careful!" Nine Phoenix's expression turned serious as she warned. She and Chaos immediately moved to protect John.

The volatile fire-element The Heaven laws and powerful Chaos Force fused together to block the Heavenly Demon's attack.

Boom!

With a single strike, Nine Phoenix and Chaos were sent flying through the air.

Against a Heavenly Demon empowered by The Heaven's light laws, they stood no chance of retaliation.

"Human, today you die!" Celestial Vault roared, completely ignoring Nine Phoenix and Chaos. He focused all his energy on controlling the Heavenly Demon, directing it to deliver a fatal blow to John.

Whoosh!

The wind howled, and the immense aura surged around the Heavenly Demon. John didn't dare hesitate for even a moment. He immediately activated Heaven and Earth Transformation, transforming into a colossal giant that was several miles tall. However, the Heavenly Demon was still twice as large as him.

Boom!

A deafening crash echoed as the Heavenly Demon swung its massive hand toward John. John felt a terrifying force rush at him, his blood surging as he was sent hurtling backward.

"John!" Heavenly King shouted in alarm. Gritting his teeth, he gathered his strongest attack and charged toward the Heavenly Demon.

Nine Phoenix and Chaos also joined the fray, and together with John and Heavenly King, the group struggled to suppress the rampaging Heavenly Demon.

At this point, the battlefield had descended into complete chaos.

The remaining six Heavenly Demons surged into the ranks of the army, wreaking havoc and slaughtering indiscriminately. The Nine-Star experts stood no chance, being annihilated instantly.

Only a few Emperor-level experts were able to barely hold their ground against the rampaging Heavenly Demons.
