Chapter 143: Subduing the Powerhouses of the Abyss



Ben waved his hand dismissively, saying, "This minor injury won't affect me much." Whoosh!

Just then, several powerful auras descended upon them.

It was Behemoth and a group of other strong beings.

"Senior, you summoned us?" they asked, transforming into human form and bowing

respectfully to Tony and Ben, their expressions curious.

Tony nodded, scanning the group, but noticed the absence of the three-headed black dragon. "Where's that black dragon?" he asked, puzzled.

Behemoth hesitated, casting a glance at John.

The rule set by the two seniors was that no one above Tier 7 was allowed to engage in mutual combat, and Behemoth feared they might hold him accountable.

John quickly explained, "Seniors, the three-headed black dragon attacked me, but fortunately, Behemoth, Sara, and Bonnie came to my aid."

"Is that creature dead?" Ben asked in surprise.

He had never liked the three-headed black dragon much, but as a Tier 8 legendary being, the black dragon was powerful. If it had chosen to flee, it would have been difficult for the three of them to kill it, even if they worked together.

The fact that they had managed to do so surprised him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"If it's dead, so be it," Tony said, showing no remorse. He then turned to Behemoth and said, "You did well. I'll find a way to restore your severed arm."

Behemoth's eyes lit up, and he repeatedly expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, my lord! Thank you!"

John couldn't help but find it ironic. It was Tony who had severed Behemoth's arm in the first place, yet here he was, grateful to him for the promise of restoration. Such was the nature of power dynamics.

Tony then addressed the assembled powerhouses, "The reason I summoned you all here today is to inform you that we're leaving this place."

"What? Lord Tony, have you mastered the dark Power of Laws?"

"Congratulations, Lord Tony!"

"This is wonderful news! We can finally leave this cursed place!"

...

The group was ecstatic, offering their congratulations to Tony.

Tony, however, looked a bit awkward. He, too, wanted to master the dark Power of Laws, but he was still just shy of achieving it.

"Ahem!" He coughed twice to regain their attention and then said calmly, "I haven't mastered the dark Power of Laws, but the Godslayer can. However, there's a condition-if you want to leave, you must swear allegiance!"

John glanced at Tony with gratitude. His intention had always been to subdue these powerhouses, but he was worried that their pride would prevent them from submitting. With Tony backing him up, these proud beings wouldn't dare oppose him.

The assembled powerhouses were stunned, staring at John in disbelief.

"I, Sara, swear eternal allegiance to the Godslayer!" Sara was the first to speak, playfully winking at John as she did so.

Since she was already bound to him, such an oath was hardly restrictive for her.

"I, Bonnie, swear allegiance," Bonnie said, giving Sara a displeased glare before following suit.

"I pledge my allegiance as well!" Behemoth quickly chimed in, offering John a flattering smile.

He knew that this human had a close relationship with Tony and Ben, and currying favor with him could only benefit himself.

With the three Tier 8 powerhouses pledging their loyalty, the other strong beings, even if reluctant, dared not show any dissent. One by one, they all declared their willingness to swear allegiance to John.

Their only wish now was to leave the Abyss.

Among them were three Tier 8 legendary powerhouses, over a hundred Tier 7 epic and legendary powerhouses, and more than a thousand Tier 6 epic powerhouses.

With such a formidable force descending upon the world of Gods, they would be capable of overwhelming most factions.

Even with the Faction System opening, John had no reason to fear.

Looking at these powerhouses, John felt a surge of confidence. He then turned to Tony and Ben and asked, "Seniors, are you sure you don't want to come with us?"

Tony shook his head and replied, "The Abyss has no adverse effects on us, and we've grown accustomed to it here. If there's any danger, you can summon us anytime."

Ben nodded in agreement.

John didn't press the issue. He had already spent a month in the Abyss, completely cut off from the outside world, and was concerned that something might have happened in his absence. With that, he led the group of powerhouses and bid the two seniors farewell.

Buzz!

The power of space rippled, and John effortlessly tore open a spatial rift.

He turned to the group of powerhouses behind him and instructed, "Stay close to me."

With that, he stepped into the spatial passageway first, as a torrent of dark energy surged toward them.

These dark energies were highly destructive, but John, having mastered the laws of dark elements, was immune to dark magic damage.

Moreover, with his mastery of the dark elements reaching 10%, he could now control these

dark energies.

John shielded the group of powerhouses as they safely passed through the spatial rift, emerging in the world of Gods, at the Saint Martial Sect.

The terrifying aura emanating from the powerhouses spread across the area, causing the disciples of the Saint Martial Sect to react as if facing a grave threat, rushing out in alarm.

"John!" Sini and Anna were among them, their eyes lighting up with excitement and joy as they spotted John in the crowd.

Sini quickly realized that these terrifying beings must have been summoned by John.

"Everything is fine now. You can all stand down," she told the Saint Martial Sect disciples

behind her.

The disciples nodded, though they couldn't help but stare in awe at the sudden appearance of these formidable figures-especially the one-armed giant, who stood like a mountain, exuding an immense pressure.

...

"The air is so familiar-it's the world of Gods!"

"Haha, we've finally returned!"

The powerhouses ignored the Saint Martial Sect disciples entirely, breathing in the fresh air

greedily, brimming with excitement.

"John, why were you gone for so long this time?" Sini asked as she approached, wrapping her arm around John's. Her eyes shimmered with unshed tears.

Anna, looking at John with a pout, was clearly displeased.

For the past month, they had been worried sick, regretting that they hadn't joined him in the

Abyss.

Before John could respond, Sara frowned and coldly asked, "Husband, who are these two

women?"

She could tell immediately that John had a special relationship with them.

"Well..." John hesitated, glancing between the three women, unsure of how to explain the

situation.

Off to the side, Bonnie crossed her arms and watched with a smug expression, clearly enjoying the unfolding drama.

"Husband? Hmph!" Sini, realizing what Sara had called him, snorted, giving John a sharp

glare.

"Hello, sister! You're so beautiful!" Sini suddenly stepped forward, pulling Sara aside.

This woman seemed to have some sort of charm-after just a few words, Sara was giggling, her hostility completely dissolved.

Bonnie, observing this, felt a twinge of annoyance. She had been looking forward to seeing

John get into trouble.

"Wait, are you Lady Bonnie?" At that moment, Anna noticed Bonnie, her face lighting up with

surprise.

"And you are?" Bonnie asked, puzzled. There was something familiar about the young girl,

but she couldn't quite place her.

Anna quickly responded, "My lady, it's me, Anna."

"Oh!" Bonnie exclaimed, realization dawning. She smiled warmly, "The Elven Saintess of the Nature Elves! I didn't expect you to have grown so much-you've become even more

beautiful."

Anna blushed and nodded shyly. Both the Dark Elves and the Nature Elves were born from the

Tree of Life.

Initially, the two elven factions had a harmonious relationship, and Bonnie had taken care of

Anna.

But as disagreements arose, Bonnie eventually led the Dark Elves away from the Land of Elves, capturing Beast Clan warriors and establishing her own power.

"And where is Tanya? Is she here?" Bonnie asked, her tone filled with concern. Despite the

split, she still cared deeply for her Dark Elf kin, especially the Dark Elven Saintess, Tanya.

Anna shook her head, instinctively looking at John.

Tanya had appeared during a previous Beast Clan crisis, but the encounter hadn't gone well,

leading to a conflict and a bet with John.

Not wanting to worry Bonnie, Anna simply said, "Don't worry, Tanya is still alive. She showed

up not too long ago. I'm sure she'll appear again."

"That's good to hear," Bonnie nodded, not pressing further.

She was aware of some tension between John and the Dark Elves, but she wasn't concerned.

As long as she was around, the Dark Elves wouldn't act against John. "Godslayer, what's our next move?" Behemoth asked, uninterested in the ongoing

conversation and more curious about what was to come.

John had been away from the world of Gods for a month and had a lot to catch up on. After

thinking it over, he said, "I'll take you all to Death Land first. Don't resist."

With that, he glanced at Bonnie. Understanding his concern, Bonnie smiled and said, "Though Death Land is the sacred ground

of the Dark Elves, it's yours to command now. I don't mind."

"Thank you. From now on, that will be your home," John said gratefully as he connected with

the Death Land through his mind, leading the group of powerhouses into it.

Sini and Anna followed closely behind.

As soon as they arrived, a dense life force surrounded them, and Bonnie was left in shock and

disbelief. "Is this really my Death Land?"

She remembered that Death Land was supposed to be akin to the Abyss-a prison for the powerful beings of various races.

But now, it looked like a paradise, a hidden sanctuary.

Then she noticed the massive tree in the distance, its canopy stretching across the sky. "That's the Tree of Life from the elves! No wonder..." she exclaimed in amazement.

The other powerhouses, too, felt the overwhelming life energy around them, and they breathed in deeply, feeling invigorated. Compared to the Abyss, this place was heaven.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, several powerful auras appeared as the Black Turtle and others, sensing the new arrivals, quickly rushed over.

"Damn it, kid, what have you done now, bringing so many powerful beings here?" the Black

Turtle asked irritably when he saw John.

He was worried that these were enemies John had provoked, and some of these auras were so

powerful they even made him feel uneasy.

"Look at you, always so spineless. These are all allies," John remarked, giving the Black

Turtle a glance. His behavior was a far cry from the dignified presence of his ancestor, Tony.

"Wait, Bonnie!" A sudden shout rang out as Succubus recognized Bonnie. Instantly on guard, she distanced herself, ready for battle at any moment.

Many of the monsters previously imprisoned in the Land of Darkness had been captured by

Bonnie herself.

"Oh, Succubus, you're still alive?" Bonnie replied nonchalantly, clearly not considering

Succubus a threat.

"Alright, enough," John quickly intervened, speaking firmly. "We're all on the same side now.

Any past grievances can be settled privately, but no one is allowed to kill. We have a common enemy now-gods and the races that serve them."

Hearing John's words, the hostility among the monsters lessened slightly. They grudgingly acknowledged his point with a few grunts, and they decided to ignore Bonnie for the time

being.
