Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

Chapter 254: The Shapeshifting Witch, God-Level Disguise



"Godslayer, how are you holding up?" Cand-Dragon asked in a low voice, watching the pained expression on John's face.

Cand-Dragon knew all too well the terrifying abilities of the Shapeshifting Witch. Her god- level disguise talent allowed her to take on the appearance and life force of anyone, even perfectly mimicking their aura.

The most dangerous aspect of her attack, however, was the soul toxin she wielded-once infected, it was usually a death sentence.

John's brow furrowed as waves of dizziness hit him. His soul was being constricted by black threads, constantly devouring his essence.

But at that moment, the Crimson Karma Lotus appeared, instantly dissolving the black threads.

The Hellfire had the power to purify any form of evil.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

With his soul crisis averted, John didn't let it show. He gritted his teeth and slowly pulled the dagger from his chest, fixing his cold gaze on the Shapeshifting Witch. "Where is Sini?"

The witch smiled sweetly, brushing her hair back. "You mean that little girl? Don't worry, she's also one of the Shadow Clan's targets. She won't be harmed... for now."

Sini is a shadow Clan target?

John frowned. The Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox hadn't mentioned anything about this.

He knew Sini didn't possess any particularly powerful talents.

But this was somewhat reassuring-being a target of the Shadow Clan meant she wouldn't be in immediate danger.

"Good," John said calmly, now more at ease. He then stared directly at the Shapeshifting Witch and added icily, "In that case, you have no reason to live anymore."

"Heaven and Earth Transformation!" John roared, unleashing a torrent of overwhelming power. The sheer force of his transformation sent Cand-Dragon flying back.

In an instant, John transformed into a giant over ten thousand feet tall, his immense aura causing the upper-tier god powerhouses to freeze in shock as they watched the transformation unfold.

Whoosh!

With a gust of wind, John reached out and grabbed the Shapeshifting Witch, her tiny form trapped in his colossal hand like a mere doll.

"Dare to harm those close to me, and you'll die!" he thundered, his voice echoing like rolling thunder. His massive hand clenched tightly.

"What? You weren't poisoned?" the Shapeshifting Witch gasped in disbelief, her eyes wide with pain as John's grip nearly crushed her.

Panic-stricken, she fought back, unleashing soul attacks in desperation.

"Let me go!" she cried, summoning two daggers wreathed in dark tendrils, stabbing them into John's palm with all her strength.

Blood trickled from his fingers, and once again, the black threads of soul toxin began to infiltrate his flesh, trying to bind his soul.

It's also soul toxin attack.

Boom!

But just like before, the Crimson Karma Lotus flared up, and the Hellfire burned away the evil toxin with ease.

John's grip tightened even more.

"Ugh!" the Shapeshifting Witch coughed up blood, her body distorting as she struggled to maintain her form.

"Help... help me..." she stammered, her voice trembling as she called out to Eddie and the others for aid.

The group finally snapped out of their shock, staring at the colossal form of John with wide eyes, nervously swallowing.

The leading gods warrior gritted his teeth and barked, "Attack him together!"

Without hesitation, they launched their strongest attacks, unleashing a barrage of power aimed directly at John.

Massive waves of The power of laws surged and collided with John's arm.

He staggered back slightly, his grip loosening, and the Shapeshifting Witch seized the opportunity to escape. She coughed up another mouthful of blood, her injuries severe, and retreated quickly, not daring to engage John again.

"Human, you're stronger than we expected!" The seven enemies closed in, surrounding John and bombarding him with their combined might.

John, unfazed, didn't even bother using his skills. Relying solely on his raw physical strength, he easily fended off their attacks.

Boom! Boom!

Deafening explosions echoed across Death Land, causing the space to tremble violently.

Fortunately, The Tree of Life radiated immense power, stabilizing the space and preventing Death Land from collapsing entirely.

Even so, chaotic spatial rifts swirled around John, slicing into his body like blades, leaving his flesh bloodied and torn.

The seven attackers fared much worse. Their bodies weren't nearly as resilient as John's. If they were pulled into the spatial rifts, they wouldn't survive.

"He's too strong!" Cand-Dragon backed away repeatedly, retreating until he was safe under the protection of The Tree of Life. Staring at the giant form of John, he was utterly shocked. Compared to before, his strength has once again been terrifyingly enhanced.

Cand Dragon faced John, who had transformed into a giant, for the first time and still had the power to fight. In the end, he transformed into a giant dragon and defeated him.

Now, Cand-Dragon knew he had no chance.

Boom!

Another massive collision sent all seven attackers flying, blood spraying from their mouths. John, on the other hand, merely took a single step back, looking down at them with disdain in his massive eyes.

"This ends now," he said coldly, as an overwhelming sword aura filled the air. The Immortal Sword flew out from his body, transforming into countless sword lights.

Ultimate skill: Return of Ten Thousand Swords!

"Not good! We can't block this!"

"Quick, Split Void, tear open the space!"

The terrified group looked to a nearby fourteen-winged angel for help.

Split Void possessed a unique space talent that allowed him to bypass spatial restraints and tear open dimensional pathways.

"Got it!" the angel responded without hesitation, his wings slicing through the air as he tore open a space tunnel.

But just as the tunnel appeared, the endless barrage of sword lights descended upon them.

"Run!" The group wasted no time, leaping into the space tunnel in a panic.

"Wait for me!" The versatile witch was seriously injured and hid far away from the battlefield,

too far from the space passage to make it.

But others ignored her and rushed into the spatial passage.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Despite their haste, two of them were struck by sword beams, their bodies torn apart.

Luckily, they had resurrection abilities and, without bothering to tend to their wounds, fled as

quickly as they could.

Buzz!

The space tunnel closed, leaving Eddie plummeting from the sky. He had been shredded by the sword beams, and though his body had just reformed, he hadn't escaped before the portal

sealed shut.

"Dammit, wait for me!" he cursed in frustration.

But by then, John's next attack had already fallen.

"Die!" John roared, his voice thundering as a massive sword beam sliced through the sky,

hurtling toward Eddie.

"Human, don't kill me!" Eddie pleaded in panic, begging for his life.

Boom!

The air shook violently, and Eddie's voice was abruptly cut off as his mechanical body was

once again obliterated by the attack.

But within moments, Eddie's body reformed, blood dripping from his mouth, his energy severely drained. After being killed by John twice in quick succession, he had reached his limit.

Looking at John, Eddie frantically said, "Godslayer, I'm willing to submit to you! Let me help you fight against the Shadow Clan!"

"You? You think you're worthy?" John scoffed. His massive fist, like a meteor, came crashing

down.

Boom!

[You have killed upper-tier gods Eddie, gaining 2.6766 trillion experience points.]

[You have leveled up to 10,003.]

[Plunder talent activated: Constitution +1000, Strength +2000, Skill Points +500.]

...

The notifications flashed as John's fist annihilated Eddie completely. Now, only the Shapeshifting Witch remained on the battlefield. She sat frozen, trembling

with fear as she gazed at the towering figure of John.

Whoosh!

John reached out and grabbed her once again, effortlessly lifting her into the air. His cold voice boomed, "I'll give you one chance to live-where are Sini and the others?"

The Shapeshifting Witch swallowed hard, her fear evident. But she gritted her teeth and sneered, "Human, go ahead and kill me if you dare. But you'll never find them."

As a peak upper-tier gods powerhouse with a powerful soul, she was nearly immortal. She didn't believe this human could destroy her soul.

"Oh really?" John chuckled coldly, his soul power surged, and a red flame ignited in his palm,

enveloping her.

"Hellfire!" she gasped, her face contorting in agony. The searing pain of her soul being burned was beyond anything mortal or immortal could endure.

Now she understood why John had been unaffected by her soul toxin-Hellfire was a strange, otherworldly force capable of purifying all forms of evil. Her soul toxin stood no chance

against it.

Realizing John's mastery of Hellfire, terror overtook her. She could feel the very real threat of

death looming over her. Desperately, she cried out, "Human! I'll tell you where they are!

Please, don't kill me!"

"You've already lost your chance," John replied coldly. He didn't believe a word she said.

"If I die here, you'll never find them!" the Shapeshifting Witch shouted in panic, trying to bargain, her voice filled with desperation.

John sneered. "Too late." With a subtle tremor in the air, John activated his soul skill- Memory Extraction.

As the Hellfire cleansed her soul, John easily invaded her mind, extracting her memories.

"Ah, so that's where they are!" John quickly discovered the whereabouts of Sini and the others. They were being held in the Eternal Forest, their souls bound and guarded by Hunters.

Moreover, he uncovered why they had captured Sini.

Not because of her talents.

But because of a mysterious and powerful force that lay dormant within her. This force had

not yet awakened, but a peak upper-tier gods powerhouse from the demon race had sensed it. Unfortunately, that demon had managed to escape before John could deal with him.

At that moment, the Shapeshifting Witch regained consciousness, her head spinning. It was as if her memories had just been invaded.

"Human, what did you do to me?" she asked in terror, struggling to resist the searing burn of

the Hellfire.

"You're no longer of any use to me," John said coldly, not wasting any more words. He unleashed Soul Impact, sending a surge of soul power directly into her mind, erasing her soul

entirely.

[You have killed the Shapeshifting Witch, gaining 2.6766 trillion experience points.] [You have leveled up to 10,005.]

[Plunder talent activated: You have acquired the god-level disguise talent. Spirit +2000, Soul

Technique +100.]

The notifications flashed. Both the Shapeshifting Witch and Eddie had been peak upper-tier gods, and killing them had allowed John to level up by five levels in one go.

Even better, Plunder had rewarded him with a large number of attribute points, and most excitingly, he had acquired the Shapeshifting Witch's god-level disguise talent. [Disguise: God-level, Unique; You can disguise yourself as any life form, including their aura,

but cannot imitate the aura of beings more powerful than yourself.]

What an incredible talent.

John thought, surprised and thrilled.

The Shapeshifting Witch had managed to fool even him by disguising herself as Sini. If he

could disguise himself as someone from the Shadow Clan, perhaps he could infiltrate their

ranks.

There was no time to dwell on it. John quickly collected the loot dropped by the two, including

a high-tier divine dagger, which would be perfect for Sini. "Cand-Dragon, Eternal Forest!" John called out, concerned for the safety of the women. With a flash of thought, he left Death Land, heading straight for the Eternal Forest to rescue them.
