Chapter 217: Confronting Michelle, Ruins of the Ancient Battlefield
"Yeah," Elsa nodded and explained, "That space is unique. No matter how the external environment changes, it always provides ten times the experience of the outside world."
John was tempted. If they could leverage the experience boost from the Secret Area, their leveling speed would significantly increase.
But then Elsa added, "However, Master, I heard that the God of Light is currently stationed in the City of Angels."
"The God of Light?" John knew the coordinates of the City of Angels and had initially planned to head there for leveling up in the Secret Area.
After hearing Elsa's words, he immediately dismissed the idea. The God of Light was a mid- tier god, and John was nowhere near strong enough to confront a mid-tier god yet.
"Hm?" At that moment, Tony's expression changed, and he spoke up, "Ben just sent word- Michelle and Kamal are in Death Land."
"What?" John furrowed his brows but then quickly understood.
The Death Demon General must have been sent by Michelle. These two were likely waiting for John's downfall so they could seize control of Death Land.
"Hmph, they're still scheming." John's anger surged as he looked at his companions and said, "Let's go, we're heading back to Death Land."
Without hesitation, the group locked onto Death Land's coordinates and teleported back. Buzz!
With a ripple of spatial energy, John and his team returned to Death Land.
At that moment, Ben was in a standoff against Michelle and Kamal.
Blood stained the corner of his mouth, indicating he had already clashed with them and was seriously injured.
Ben was merely a peak ninth-tier warrior, not even at the demigod level, making him no match for Michelle and Kamal.
It seemed the two hadn't gone all out against him yet.
"Godslayer?!" Kamal looked at the suddenly appearing John in shock. "You-you're still alive?"
"What, surprised?" John sneered and said coldly, "I've told you before-Death Land doesn't welcome you."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
On the side, Tony immediately drew out the Undying Flame, stepping in front of John and Ben with a vigilant expression.
Michelle glanced at the Undying Flame in Tony's hand, her face showing a trace of fear, and asked, "Where is the Death Demon General?"
"Dead," John responded indifferently.
"Impossible." Kamal fixed her gaze on John. Seeing that the Undying Flame was intact and Tony's group was unharmed, she scoffed coldly, "I don't believe you have the power to kill a lower-tier god!"
"Oh? Want to test me?" John took a step forward, his powerful fighting spirit erupting. He showed no fear facing the two of them.
Kamal's eyes twitched, suppressing the anger rising within her. It wasn't John she feared, but rather the Undying Flame in Tony's hand.
She turned to look at Michelle, asking, "What should we do?"
Michelle frowned deeply and spoke in a calm tone, "Godslayer, to be honest, I don't want to be your enemy. How about this-hand over the Dark Sea, the body of the Death Demon General, and Sini, and we'll leave peacefully."
"That's impossible! I'm not going with you!" Sini snapped coldly, glaring at them with hostility.
She never regarded the two as her true parents. What made things worse was that these two individuals had repeatedly targeted John.
This made her very angry.
Ignoring Sini's outburst, Michelle turned to John and said coldly, "This is my final offer. There's no room for negotiation."
"Then let's all go down together." John directly took the Undying Flame from Tony's hand and asked, "How do you use this thing?"
Tony was startled, afraid that John might lose his head and actually detonate it. Despite his worry, he explained, "You control it with your mental power. Even if your soul is attacked and you're on the verge of death, you can still release the Undying Flame."
"That simple?" John easily established a mental connection with the Undying Flame, playing with it curiously.
Tony dismissed her concern, "It won't be up to the gods at that point. As long as the divine
warriors of the major races unite and hold off the gods, we can break the seal on the Ruins, releasing the divine warriors of all races and the strong ones of The Immortals trapped
within."
John's interest was piqued. He smiled and said, "I like this plan."
He had never fundamentally shaken the gods' foundations, and Earth's crisis had never truly
been resolved. From his perspective, the more chaotic the Skyline Continent became, the
more it would benefit him.
Beside him, Ben spoke up, "There's another problem: the seal can only be broken from inside
the Ancient Battlefield Ruins. And right now, only one person can get in."
"Who?" John asked curiously.
"The Undead Lord," Ben replied calmly.
The seal on the Ancient Battlefield Ruins was something that the Undead Lord and The
Immortals had worked together to create.
The only ones who could pass through the seal, aside from those fallen warriors of The Immortals back then, were now limited to the Undead Lord.
"That guy?" John was a bit surprised. It seemed like there were still many secrets surrounding
him.
"I'll summon him right away." Having signed a soul contract with the Undead Lord, John
could easily communicate with him.
Soon, with a ripple of spatial power, the Undead Lord appeared.
"What do you want, kid?" he asked John irritably after giving him a quick glance.
"Huh? How did your strength increase so dramatically?" John was astonished to see that the
Undead Lord had reached the peak of the ninth tier.
Not only that, but he had refined and fused with a divine treasure. All he needed to do was kill
a demigod-level warrior, and he could advance to the demigod level himself. Hearing John's words, the Undead Lord looked pleased with himself and said, "This is
nothing. I've just restored my former peak strength. So, what do you need from me?"
Ben interjected, "We want to enter the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, but the seal there is still intact. You're the only one who can take us inside."
"The Ancient Battlefield Ruins?" The Undead Lord froze for a moment, then hesitated. "But
the coordinates for that place have been hidden. Even I can't find it."
Ben calmly responded, "I've already deduced the coordinates." "What?" The Undead Lord exclaimed in surprise, staring at Ben with wide eyes. He asked curiously, "You can't be serious... Do you really have the ability to foresee the future? How did
you manage to calculate the coordinates hidden by upper-tier gods?"
Ben simply smiled without answering. John asked, "Can you get through the seal?"
He couldn't help but feel that the Undead Lord seemed somewhat unreliable.
"Of course I can. I was one of the ones who set that seal back then-it definitely won't stop
me." The Undead Lord looked even more smug. But then his expression turned troubled again, and he added, "However, that seal is incredibly strong. Even if we manage to get through it, with our current strength, we won't be able to destroy it." Tony replied calmly, "Don't worry about that. We have the Undying Flame."
