Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Stage 4, Dragon Patterned Sword, Dark Law

[Ding, the Evil Monarch has issued a quest. You will be given 50 Dark-Spirit Pearls. You and those around you must not attack this Evil Monarch in the Shadow Abyss, or the reward will disappear. Accept?]

It was the same 50 Dark-Spirit Pearls.

Johnnie immediately accepted the quest, and the Evil Monarch clearly felt relieved.

Then came the remaining Demon Kings and Demon Generals. They also gave Dark-Spirit Pearls in the form of a quest, making sure that Johnnie and Maiev wouldn’t attack them in the Shadow Abyss.

There were 33 Demon Kings, each holding 10 Dark-Spirit Pearls.

There were 177 Demon Generals, each holding 3 Dark-Spirit Pearls.

Johnnie immediately gained 961 Dark-Spirit Pearls. Adding the 511 he already had, he now had a total of 1,472 Dark-Spirit Pearls.

He was only 300 pearls away from reaching 100% Dark Talent and unlocking the Dark Law.

"Human, can you let us go now?" one of the Evil Monarchs urged.

"Of course. I’ll invite you to another place." Johnnie smiled slightly, and the Canvas of Illusions appeared, fluttering in the wind.

"Bad move!" Their faces turned pale instantly.

"Treacherous! Don’t forget the quest restriction. If you kill us, you won’t get a single Dark-Spirit Pearl."

They shouted, cursed, and threatened.

Johnnie didn’t care at all. He directly pulled all of them into the Canvas of Illusions.

He had only promised not to attack them in the Shadow Abyss. That didn’t mean he wouldn’t attack them elsewhere.

The Canvas of Illusions might not be in the same space as the Shadow Abyss.

Johnnie wasn’t sure, so for safety, he didn’t hurry to kill them. He would just keep them trapped here and kill them once they were out of the Shadow Abyss.

"Come on, I just need 300 more Dark-Spirit Pearls to unlock the Dark Law." Johnnie cleaned up the battlefield and said to the two girls.

"Are we finally leaving this hellish place?" The Red Carp was excited. She didn’t like this place at all.

Maiev also didn’t want to be stuck here.

Johnnie didn’t really care. If it wasn’t for his concern that Dorian might attack the Ancient Martial Arts Family in the real world, he wouldn’t have wanted to leave.

Not only did he gain a lot of experience, but he also improved his own stats.

But he had already found the entrance to the Demon Lair, and he could come back anytime.

The group continued deeper into the Shadow Abyss.

Soon they encountered another group of powerful Demonic Creatures.

Johnnie didn’t say a word and started his massacre again.

He alternated between the Five Elements Technique and the Technique of Swordsmanship for Controlling Swords, and a whole bunch of Magic Soldiers and Demonic Guards fell.

The prompt messages kept coming in, and among them were a lot of Dragon Beasts.

Johnnie immediately recalled The Red Carp and had her kill those Dragon Beasts to help the Dragon Patterned Sword evolve.

...

[Ding, you have killed 1,000 Sub-Dragon-type Monsters. Dragon Patterned Sword has evolved to Stage 4. Attributes increased, and the skill Dragon Soul Storm is unlocked.]

[Dragon Patterned Sword: Artifact, Stage 4 (Growable, Mastered); Physical Damage +300, Magic Damage +200, Four Basic Attributes +300, Attack Speed +10, Luck +5 (Sword Spirit Blessing), Critical Hit +2, Penetration +1]

[Dragon’s Authority: Skill of the Dragon Patterned Sword. When activated, it increases all attributes by 10%, and consumes 100 Mana Points per second]

[Dragon Soul Storm: Special Skill, performed by the Sword Spirit]

[Kill 10,000 Sub-Dragon-type Monsters to evolve to Stage 5]

The Dragon Patterned Sword evolved again, now at Stage 4.

The next evolution requires killing 10,000 Sub-Dragon-type Monsters, and there weren’t that many Dragon Beasts here. So it wasn’t possible for now. This evolution also unlocked a new skill: Dragon Soul Storm.

The Sword Spirit performed it?

Johnnie was confused. He couldn’t use this skill himself.

Buzz!

At that moment, the Dragon Patterned Sword transformed into The Red Carp, who excitedly said, "Master, my stats have improved again. I’ve also unlocked a powerful area skill, Dragon Soul Storm. It deals 200% Physical and Magic Damage to enemies."

"Double damage bonus?" Johnnie was surprised. He said, "Try it."

"Okay." The Red Carp was also curious. A strong power surged around her, and the Dragon’s Authority skill was also activated.

She could also use the Dragon’s Authority skill of the Dragon Patterned Sword.

"Dragon Soul Storm!" She gave a light shout, followed by a long, echoing dragon roar. A huge Celestial Dragon illusion appeared, stirring the clouds and winds, and rushed toward the surrounding Magic Soldiers.

Boom...

The dragon shadow flickered, thunder rolled, and a wave of damage numbers lit up, almost covering a thousand-meter radius of Magic Soldiers.

-3212

-3125

-3154

...

"Such a wide range?" Johnnie was shocked. The range of Dragon Soul Storm was comparable to the arrow rain Maiev had previously used.

The Red Carp pouted in dissatisfaction and said, "Master, the damage is too low."

Johnnie smiled and said, "These are all Stage 6 Magic Soldiers. You’re only at Stage 4, and you’re already dealing over 3,000 damage. That’s already terrifying."

"But Master is only at Stage 5, and he can kill a Stage 9 Legendary Evil Monarch in one hit. And Maiev’s arrow rain wiped out a lot of Magic Soldiers." she said with a frown.

Johnnie was speechless. "Can you compare yourself to normal people?"

He had the Great Transformation Sword Technique for stacked damage, and Maiev was a true divine-level powerhouse.

"Exactly." Maiev nodded in agreement.

The Red Carp sighed. "But I’ve only seen the two of you, the top experts."

She had once almost passed the heavenly tribulation and become a Half-God. So her complaint was understandable.

Johnnie shook his head and said no more, continuing to slaughter the Magic Soldiers.

Several Evil Monarchs and a dozen Demon Kings and Demon Generals had already been controlled by Maiev.

Even without being controlled, he could easily kill them.

But Johnnie’s goal wasn’t to kill these guys—he wanted to threaten them into handing over their Dark-Spirit Pearls.

Soon, tens of thousands of Magic Soldiers and Demonic Guards were cleared out again.

Johnnie looked at the stronger beings above the Demon General level and threatened them to hand over their Dark-Spirit Pearls.

These guys were scared and immediately agreed to his request, offering all the Dark-Spirit Pearls they had in the form of a quest.

Johnnie received more than 500 Dark-Spirit Pearls again. That was enough to unlock the Dark Law.

These guys were also put into the Canvas of Illusions by him. He planned to kill them all once they left the Shadow Abyss.

"Maiev, watch my back." Johnnie said, then found a quiet corner, sat cross-legged, and started refining the Dark-Spirit Pearls.

Maiev and The Red Carp guarded him, preventing any Demonic Creatures from approaching.

The surrounding Demonic Creatures had been wiped out, and no new ones would appear for a while.

[Ding, you refined a Dark-Spirit Pearl. Dark Talent increased by 2%. Current: 30%...]

[Ding, you refined a Dark-Spirit Pearl. Dark Talent increased by 1%. Current: 31%...]

...

The prompt messages kept coming, and as the Dark Talent increased, more Dark-Spirit Pearls were needed.

[Ding, you refined a Dark-Spirit Pearl. Dark Talent increased by 0.01%. Current: 91%]

After Johnnie’s Dark Talent reached 90%, each Dark-Spirit Pearl only added 0.01% to his Dark Talent.

He still had over a thousand Dark-Spirit Pearls left—enough to raise his Dark Talent to 100% and unlock the Dark Law.

Each Dark-Spirit Pearl he refined slowly boosted his Dark Talent.

...

[Ding, you refined a Dark-Spirit Pearl. Dark Talent increased by 0.01%. Current: 100%]

[Ding, you have unlocked the Dark Law. Current: 1%. Immune to Dark Attribute Magic Damage; Sword Immortal class bonus, attack deals 100% Dark Attribute Magic Damage, and 1% of Dark Magic True Damage]

Finally, Johnnie used up 1,888 Dark-Spirit Pearls, raising his Dark Talent to 100% and unlocking the Dark Law.

He now had a clearer perception of the dark energy around him.

And after unlocking the Dark Law, he was suddenly immune to Dark Attribute Magic Damage, and he could also deal 1% Dark Magic True Damage.

True Damage—ignores both physical and magic defense. It was said only divine-level powerhouses could master it.

Johnnie hadn’t expected that after unlocking a law, his attacks could deal true damage.

But it was only 1%, and his stats were still too low to make it noticeable.

Also, the damage from the Great Transformation Sword Technique couldn’t convert Dark Magic Damage.

He hadn’t learned any Dark Magic skills, so he had to rely on the Sword Immortal class bonus, which added 100% Dark Attribute Magic Damage to his attacks.

It seemed he needed to focus on boosting his Spiritual Attribute.

Johnnie had been killing Magic Soldiers for a while, and his free attribute points had stacked up to over 70,000, but he hadn’t rushed to assign them yet.

"Master, have you unlocked the Dark Law yet?" The Red Carp asked eagerly.

Johnnie smiled and nodded.

"Can we finally leave this cursed place?" Maiev quickly asked.

"Let’s try." Johnnie thought, then summoned his Void Sword, recalled the two women into the Canvas of Illusions, and flew using the Controlled Sword.

Whoosh...

There was still a strong oppressive force here, but he could barely lift off.

Soon, he reached the misty area above the Shadow Abyss.

Boom!

Suddenly, a thunderous explosion hit him, a terrifying oppressive force descended, and Johnnie was severely injured. He lost control of his body and fell off the flying sword.

Was he still trapped here?

He fell rapidly, but before he hit the ground, he summoned the Void Sword again and was safely caught.

"What the hell was that?" Johnnie frowned. He clearly felt that this oppressive force wasn’t just from the Dark Law—it was something stronger.

He could only fly a few hundred meters using the Controlled Sword, and as soon as he touched the mist, a terrifying force would hit him. He couldn’t break through it.

Was he really going to be stuck here forever?

Johnnie felt frustrated. He thought, then summoned Maiev and The Red Carp out of the scroll.

The two girls looked around curiously, then frowned in confusion.

"Master, this is still the Shadow Abyss, right?" The Red Carp asked, confused.

Maiev also said, "Master, even after unlocking the Dark Law, we still can’t leave?"

Johnnie nodded. "I can only fly a little, but as soon as I touch the mist, a stronger force hits me. I can feel it—it’s not just Dark Law. There’s something even stronger."

Maiev frowned and was stuck for a moment, then said, "Is it really only the Demon God who can move through the Shadow Abyss?"

The Red Carp thought for a moment and said, "Master, do you think the Evil Monarchs you trapped know the way out?"

"Ask them." Johnnie said, not expecting much. If the Evil Monarchs knew how to leave, they wouldn’t have stayed in the Shadow Abyss this long.

Unless there was something here that kept them.

He thought, then released one of the Evil Monarchs.

"Ugh, another illusion? Die!" The Evil Monarch saw Johnnie, anger flared, roared, and immediately attacked.
