In a blink, the Light-and-Dark Sli split into tens of thousands of copies. Each was about the size of a normal sli, and their strength was even weaker than Johnnie’s.
Rumble, rumble...
Thunder rolled. The tribulation clouds churned, showing no sign of weakening.
"Despicable human. You want to use the heavenly tribulation to hurt ? Let’s see if you can survive it yourself." the sli said with a sneer.
Johnnie frowned at the boiling thunderclouds, a bad feeling rising in his chest.
The sli leader had split too many tis, and each clone was too weak. They couldn’t block the next tribulation bolt for him.
He tried to suppress his power again to cancel the heavenly tribulation, but it didn’t work.
Looks like he’d have to take it himself.
Crack!
A thicker bolt of tribulation lightning ca crashing down.
Johnnie’s face was tense as vast water-elent law power gathered around him.
"Water-Curtain Celestial Blossom!"
With a low shout, a huge curtain of water ford overhead, blotting out the sky as it tried to block the lightning.
Boom!
With a roar, the giant water curtain shattered into a raging flood. The bolt was wrapped inside the torrent, which washed over a kiloter around them. Its power was only slightly reduced.
"Not good!" the sli leader cried in panic. The lightning-laced flood covered all of its clones.
These clones were part of its body. If they were destroyed, it would suffer heavy damage.
Whoosh!
In an instant, the flood drowned Johnnie and the sli’s clones. The tribulation’s power was spread out a bit.
But Johnnie still couldn’t bear it. His whole body went numb, a stabbing pain hit his mind, and the next second he was instantly killed by the tribulation.
[Ding, you failed to withstand the heavenly tribulation. Special Law Blessing: You revive on the spot]
The system prompts flashed. Johnnie revived where he stood, face pale, coughing up blood again.
His soul power, which had just recovered, took heavy damage once more.
Still, he didn’t walk away empty-handed—his Lich bloodline fused even more.
It seed the more he was struck by the heavenly tribulation, the easier the Lich bloodline fused.
Just now, in that lightning-laced flood, countless weak currents hit him.
When the tribulation clouds dispersed and the sky cleared, the remaining slis rushed together and reford the Light-and-Dark Sli.
But now its body was almost half the size, covered in blood and wounds, and its aura was wildly unstable.
"Despicable human, you actually hurt my origin. Unforgivable!" it roared, and several light beams gathered and blasted at Johnnie.
They were so fast they hit in an instant—there was no way to dodge.
Boom, boom...
[Ding, you were killed by the Light-and-Dark Sli. Special Law Blessing: You revive on the spot]
The system prompts flashed. It took more than a dozen beams to finally kill Johnnie.
This guy’s strength had dropped a lot!
Johnnie’s eyes lit up. He could clearly feel the Light-and-Dark Sli had less than a tenth of its forr power.
Looks like the lightning and the destruction of its clones dealt it heavy damage.
He was even confident he could kill it head-on now, but to be safe, he summoned the Dark Golden Golem.
Run!
Realizing it wasn’t a match, the Light-and-Dark Sli turned to flee.
But the mont its huge body sprang up, the plants around them grew madly into vines that wrapped it tight.
-1430000
-1430000
...
Damage numbers popped up one after another. It was The Myriad Phenona, the wood-elent Forbidden Spell Johnnie had just learned.
It binds the enemy and deals damage equal to 1% of the target’s Health points each second.
But Johnnie wasn’t the one casting it. After using Water-Curtain Celestial Blossom, his Mana points were already empty.
It was the Dark Golden Golem’s skill.
With synced attributes, any power-up for Johnnie or the Dark Golden Golem is shared with the other.
But it didn’t last long. After ten seconds, The Myriad Phenona ended.
Shaken, the Light-and-Dark Sli snapped, "Human, this isn’t over between us."
It spat out a final threat, then its huge body sprang up and fled toward the mountains and woods.
"Dark Golden Golem, stop it." Johnnie ordered, while guiding the Seven Sword to strike at the Light-and-Dark Sli.
The cost to control the Seven Sword was small—he could recover it in a blink.
The Dark Golden Golem leaped up, cut the sli off, and they grappled.
After the heavy wounds from the heavenly tribulation, its power was greatly reduced. It could no longer threaten the Dark Golden Golem.
Johnnie stayed to the side, seized the chance, and drove the Seven Sword to attack like crazy.
Even if the sli leader darkened its body, it still couldn’t block Johnnie’s flying swords. Each strike dealt hundreds of thousands of true damage.
That damage alone couldn’t kill it, but Johnnie’s trump card was the Seven Sword’s Instant Kill effect.
Buzz...
The Intent of the Sword humd—several flashes of cold light.
The Light-and-Dark Sli was in agony. The flying swords gave it a growing sense of dread.
It wanted to run, but it couldn’t shake off the Dark Golden Golem.
Puff!
Another sword fell. A powerful force swept through, and nearly 100 million Health points were wiped out in an instant.
[Seven Sword Instant Kill effect triggered. You killed the Light-and-Dark Sli]
[Four basic attributes 10,000. God-killing power triggered. Your attributes are permanently increased by 10%]
The system prompts appeared, and Johnnie finally let out a breath.
He’d worried the weakened sli leader wouldn’t trigger God-killing power, but it turned out that even weakened, it was still a Half-God. The God-killing power triggered all the sa.
Buzz!
A ripple of Soul Power surged out as the Light-and-Dark Sli’s Divine Soul flew free. "Human, I’ll rember you. When I revive, I’ll tear you to pieces!"
Its angry voice echoed as the Divine Soul shot deep into the mountains.
Johnnie frowned. He didn’t care about the threat. What bothered him was that killing the Domain couldn’t instantly kill the Divine Soul.
Looks like he needed a way to kill Divine Souls.
Letting that go, Johnnie checked the loot dropped by the Light-and-Dark Sli.
As expected, an Elental Heart shard dropped.
Johnnie now had three Elental Heart shards. He could combine them into a complete Elental Heart, and then he’d be able to practice all elental powers.
Besides that, there was also a Divine Essence and a piece of gear—a delicate headpiece.
[Sli Crown: Artifact. Usable by female mage classes. Four basic attributes 30,000; Magic damage 100%; Mana points 100%; Elental insight 5; Cos with skill: Sli Summon; Special effect: Sli Affinity]
[Sli Summon: Summon a Half-God-level Sli leader to fight for 30 minutes]
[Sli Affinity: 100 Sli affinity. Slis won’t attack you. You can control nearby slis]
It was another powerful, fully complete artifact. It gives 100% magic damage, 100% mana, and 5 elental insight.
The scariest part is it can summon a Half-God-level Sli to fight. Even if it’s only for 30 minutes, that’s already broken.
The only pity is that Johnnie can’t use it—it requires a female mage.
It fits Crysic, though.
Johnnie put it away and decided to give it to Crysic.
Then he took out two more Elental Heart shards, the ones dropped by the Water-Fire Sli leader and the Mountain Hunter.
With three shards total, he fused them on the spot.
[Ding, you obtained a complete Elental Heart]
[Elental Heart: Can be refined by mage classes. Lets you practice all elental powers, with a chance to fuse them]
Johnnie couldn’t wait. He refined it right away.
[Ding, you refined the Elental Heart]
The prompts popped up again. Johnnie checked himself carefully, but nothing seed to change.
And the elental fusion he was hoping for didn’t happen either.
"Is my luck really that bad?" Johnnie felt a bit let down.
He knew how strong elental fusion could be.
The earlier Water-Fire Elent Sli and this Light-and-Dark Sli had both fused two very different elents. They were Half-God level, yet they could easily suppress Maiev and Nalorin Sylvia, who were also Half-God powerhouses.
"I should be able to keep refining the Elental Heart. Not sure if fusion will happen later." Johnnie murmured.
But Elental Heart shards are rare. It seems only enemies who have fused elents or command multiple elents will drop them.
There should be plenty of Sli groups in the Land of Confusion. Maybe he could keep hunting Slis to gather more Elental Heart shards.
Johnnie weighed his options, but saving Cecilia was the top priority now.
"Dark Golden Golem." He turned to it. "Keep refining Sli mucus and boost the other elental insights."
By slaughtering Slis, Johnnie had gathered a lot of Sli mucus, including rare types like wind, thunder, ice, light, and darkness.
Now that he had refined the Elental Heart, he could train all elental powers, and might even push them all to law-level insight. If so, his strength would soar.
"Understood." the Dark Golden Golem replied, and Johnnie stored it inside the Map of Heaven and Earth.
After a mont’s thought, he also put away the Light-and-Dark Sli’s body. Even though it had been struck by the heavenly tribulation, lost many clones, and was greatly weakened, it was still a Domain-level body. After chanical modification, it would still be no joke.
"Restore the Intensity of the Soul, then head to Blade King City to save Cecilia." Johnnie said to himself. He had already wasted a lot of ti and was worried about her safety.
He could also feel that there would be a fierce battle in Blade King City. Skye could help him deal with Aurora, but he’d have to handle the other Domains himself.
Right now, his main reliance was the godhood heavenly tribulation.
Johnnie clearly felt that as he kept triggering it, the tribulation lightning was getting stronger.
But beyond that, he had no other way.
As the tribulation rose, so did his strength. He still believed he could withstand it in the end and beco a Divine powerhouse.
There was no rush, though. Johnnie was only stage 6. He’d need to reach at least stage 10 before the godhood heavenly tribulation would begin.
He returned to the Undead monster cave, wiped out the Undead monsters, and restored the Intensity of the Soul and his injuries.
