Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

John had no time to worry about anything else. He poured all his strength into using his divine skill, Creation and Destruction, to repair the space and stabilize both of their World-in-Hand.

As long as the World-in-Hand wasn't destroyed, there was still hope for them.

Buzz!

The sword intent hummed as a massive sword beam soared through the air. Wherever it passed, space fissures began to close.

But for the shattered World-in-Hand of the two, it was but a drop in the ocean.

The space that had just been repaired was instantly shattered again under the powerful force of the thunderstorm and the black magma surge.

John gritted his teeth and pushed forward, using Creation and Destruction again and again, striving to stabilize the space.

His World-in-Hand was in a better state, with the Tree of Life and the Immortals' Legacy Greatsword guarding it. Aside from the turbulent sea region, it wasn't affected too much.

However, Heavenly King's World-in-Hand was a different story.

The black magma surged, and the thunderstorm rampaged, leaving the entire space in ruins.

Even John's Law Tree couldn't fully suppress it.

What was even more terrifying was that the outer edges of Heavenly King's World-in-Hand had also become chaotic. The immense power was devouring his World-in-Hand.

If it collapsed, Heavenly King would undoubtedly perish.

John gritted his teeth and, without hesitation, connected his World-in-Hand to Heavenly King's world, using the Tree of Life to stabilize the surrounding space.

"Creation and Destruction!" he shouted fiercely. Once again, Creation and Destruction was unleashed, and a massive sword beam swept across, closing the rifts in space.

Boom! Boom!

At that moment, the thunder rumbled, and the terrifying pressure from the heavens gradually began to dissipate. The black clouds above slowly faded away.

"We did it!" John couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With the thunderstorm no longer a threat, the pressure on him eased significantly, allowing him to stabilize Heavenly King's World-in-Hand with ease.

His United Sword danced through the air, continuously unleashing Creation and Destruction, further stabilizing the World-in-Hand.

Then, he turned his gaze to Heavenly King, who lay on the ground, covered in blood, his presence nearly undetectable. He called out, "Heavenly King, are you still alive?"

"Cough... cough..." A few faint coughs sounded.

Heavenly King's body twitched slightly before he weakly opened his mouth. His voice was hoarse and frail. "I'm fine…"

Buzz...

At that moment, the space trembled, and a brilliant, multi-colored pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping Heavenly King.

It was the Heaven Laws.

Unlike the Heaven Laws that descended when John broke through to the perfect realm of the Overseer, this Heaven Laws was even more powerful and complete—it was the Heaven Laws of the world's origin.

"I can't believe it really worked!" Heavenly King exclaimed with excitement and joy as he saw the scene unfold before him.

He then turned his gaze toward John and said, "John, we agreed to absorb the Heaven Laws together."

"Alright!" John also felt a surge of emotion and didn't refuse. With a flash of his body, he entered the multicolored pillar of light and sat cross-legged.

The two of them began to absorb and comprehend the Heaven Laws together.

"Damn it, you won't get away with this!" Nearby, Celestial Vault saw the erupting volcano and the descending Heaven Laws and roared in anger. He immediately abandoned Nine Phoenix and Chaos, charging directly toward John and Heavenly King.

He had also set his sights on the Heaven Laws.

"Celestial Vault, this is the price you pay for provoking my Fire Phoenix City!" Nine Phoenix shouted angrily, once again entangling with Celestial Vault.

At this point, she was covered in wounds, her injuries severe, but she knew that John and Heavenly King were at a critical moment. She couldn't allow Celestial Vault to interfere with them.

Chaos, also suppressing his injuries, immediately joined the fray without a word, buying time for John and the others.

As long as they absorbed and comprehended the Heaven Laws, Heavenly King would successfully ascend to the Emperor level. At that point, even if they were outmatched by Celestial Vault, they would be able to escape, and he wouldn't be able to stop them.

"Damn it!" Celestial Vault's face twisted in rage, his roars echoing as he struck with brutal force, each move more lethal than the last, forcing Nine Phoenix and Chaos to dodge desperately.

Buzz!

At that moment, from beneath the erupting volcano, an eerie presence spread out. The boiling magma instantly calmed down, and the volcano returned to a state of eerie silence.

"Hmm?" John's eyes widened, staring intently at the volcano below, his voice filled with confusion. "Heavenly King, did you feel that?"

"What… what?" Heavenly King's voice was weak, his face pale, and he looked at John in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

John furrowed his brows, speaking slowly. "There's still a powerful presence within this volcano. At the very least, it's the presence of an Emperor-level powerhouse."

"Impossible." Heavenly King glanced at the volcano's opening and said, "The strongest person in Dark City is Celestial Vault. There are no Emperor-level powerhouses here. If there was one beneath this volcano, the power of the thunderstorm would not be this simple."

"You're right. Could it be that I was mistaken?" John felt confused as well.

Heavenly King continued, "John, don't waste time on this. The Heaven Laws that descend after the thunderstorm have a time limit. We should focus on absorbing them as quickly as possible. How much we can comprehend depends on our luck."

After saying this, he closed his eyes, focusing his mind, and began to absorb the Heaven Laws as much as he could.

John looked down at the volcano's opening and carefully sensed the area. However, that powerful presence had already disappeared.

"Could it really have been my imagination?" he wondered. The black magma was terrifyingly powerful, and even an Emperor-level powerhouse might not be able to withstand it.

Staring at the now calm volcano opening, his brows furrowed tightly. He was certain that just a moment ago, a powerful presence had briefly flashed and managed to stabilize the erupting volcano.

"Forget it, I'll focus on comprehending the Heaven Laws first." John didn't feel any danger and stopped dwelling on it. He closed his eyes and began to carefully absorb and refine the Heaven Laws.

Whoosh!

His internal energy automatically began to circulate, and the Tai Chi symbol reappeared in his dantian. The powers of Chaos Force, the power of the Necromancer, and The Immortals' spiritual power, along with other attributes, rapidly surged.

The most important part was that he was gaining new insights into the Heaven Laws.

So powerful!

John was astonished and immersed himself even more deeply in his meditation, fully absorbing and comprehending the Heaven Laws.

He didn't know how long it had been, but eventually, Heavenly King slowly opened his eyes, and the immense Heaven Laws power surged throughout his body.

He had successfully comprehended the Heaven Laws and had ascended to the Emperor level.

"Hmm?" He noticed John beside him, surprised.

At that moment, the multicolored pillar of light had not yet dissipated, and a massive flow of Heaven Laws continued to pour into John's body.

"This guy has such powerful comprehension ability." Heavenly King couldn't help but admire him. He was envious but didn't disturb him and instead turned his attention back to the battlefield.

Nine Phoenix and Chaos were battling Celestial Vault, and they were clearly at a disadvantage, barely hanging on.

"Celestial Vault, let me see your true strength!" Heavenly King's strength had risen, and his fighting spirit was burning. He roared, charging directly into the fray.

The three of them attacked Celestial Vault together.

"Hmph, you think just because you became an Emperor, you're my match?" Celestial Vault sneered arrogantly, his attacks not slowing down in the slightest. In fact, they only became more powerful.

Heavenly King, after only one clash, was blasted away.

He had just ascended to the Emperor level and had just survived the thunderstorm tribulation, suffering serious injuries. Although his strength had increased, he was still no match for Celestial Vault.

Nine Phoenix gritted her teeth and said, "Retreat, this guy's abilities are too strange. We're no match for him."

"Wait a bit longer. John hasn't finished absorbing the Heaven Laws yet." Heavenly King quickly reminded her, gritting his teeth as he charged back toward Celestial Vault.

"What?" Nine Phoenix and Chaos were confused. That was when they noticed John, still enveloped by the multicolored pillar of light, not far off.

"Wait, this isn't his thunder tribulation. Why can he absorb so many Heaven Laws?" Chaos asked, surprised.

The three of them regrouped, attacking Celestial Vault again in an attempt to buy time for John.

The sound of explosions echoed through the air, and the terrifying power of the laws surged, indiscriminately destroying everything in its path.

Celestial Vault was determined to kill the group, but even the strength of an Emperor was not to be underestimated. While he could easily defeat them, killing them within a short time would still be a challenge.

...

Time passed, though John didn't know how much. The multicolored light pillar gradually faded, signaling the end of his comprehension of the Heaven Laws.

[You have comprehended the Heaven Laws. Four primary attributes +100 million, some of the insights have been converted into Heaven Laws.]

The prompt flashed, and a surge of powerful energy circulated within John's body. His four primary attributes had directly increased by one hundred million points.

"Peak of Eight Stars!" John felt his strength and was filled with excitement. He was one step away from breaking through to become a Nine-Star powerhouse.

But that was not even the most impressive part.

What was truly powerful was his newfound comprehension of the Heaven Laws.

Other than the Darkness Heaven Law, which was already at 100%, all the other laws had been converted into 10% comprehension of the Heaven Laws.

This resulted in a massive increase in his strength.

Whoosh!

John focused inwardly, and the Law Tree flew out from Heavenly King's World-in-Hand. It returned to his own World-in-Hand, standing guard over the sea domain.

Boom...

Without the Law Tree to protect it, Heavenly King's World-in-Hand suddenly became chaotic.

The force on the outer edges was especially violent and destructive, filled with a devouring energy that threatened to tear apart his World-in-Hand.

"This is bad!" Heavenly King's expression changed, and he too sensed the shift in his World-in-Hand.

He hadn't anticipated that, after breaking through to the Emperor realm, he would not only fail to suppress that force, but it would actually grow even more powerful.

At this rate, his World-in-Hand could be destroyed.

"Leave it to me!" At that moment, John's voice rang out.

Whoosh...

The wind howled, and John immediately activated his divine skill—Heaven and Earth Transformation, transforming into a towering giant of immense size.

His aura now was even more terrifying than before, the powerful pressure radiating from him, comparable to that of an Emperor.

The United Sword appeared in his hand. He swung it downward with immense force, casting Creation and Destruction.

Buzz!

A loud hum filled the air, and a massive circular sword aura shot toward the outer edges of Heavenly King's World-in-Hand.

At that moment, this sword aura was not only made of Chaos Force, but also carried several powerful strands of the Heaven Laws.

As the sword aura swept across, the surrounding space instantly stabilized.

The violent force on the outer edges was immediately suppressed and dissipated in an instant.

However, the massive sword aura did not vanish. It continued to expand outward, directly entering the Void.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, World-in-Hand trembled.

This was not a destructive force but an expansive one.

Suddenly, Heavenly King's World-in-Hand expanded outward, nearly doubling in size, becoming vast and boundless.

Powerful energies surged toward him, fusing into his body.

His aura soared even higher, reaching the true potential of a perfectly integrated World-in-Hand.
