Online Game: Starting with an SSS-Level Plundering Talent

John was moved. After half a month of continuous battles, he had become somewhat numb. Leisian's ability to endure for such a long time surprised him.

Roar, roar…

Angry roars echoed from within the black mist as a group of giant beasts appeared.

John's eyes lit up as he sensed three Seven-Star Emperor-level Soul Devouring Beasts.

Slaying Seven-Star Emperor Soul Devouring Beasts would allow him to Plunder five million Soul Technique points, accelerating his progress even further.

Buzz!

The power of laws surged, and six Golden Wheels of Laws howled as they shot out. He took the initiative to strike.

Now that his Soul Technique had improved, Seven-Star Emperor Soul Devouring Beasts no longer posed any threat to him.

The battle erupted once more. The Golden Wheels of Laws howled through the air, thousands of sword lights flickered, and the massive White Jade City enveloped the area, shaking the space.

Within half an hour, thousands of giant beasts were slaughtered by him.

His strength and Soul Technique saw another significant improvement.

He casually stored the beast corpses in his World-in-Hand and continued searching for more giant beasts to hunt.

…

[You have slain a Seven-Star Emperor Soul Devouring Beast. Plunder talent activated.]

[Four basic attributes +200 million points, Soul Technique +5 million points, Corrosive Path Black Mist resistance +1.]

[Your Soul Technique has reached 200 million points. Your understanding of Soul Law has increased, and you have formed the Soul Golden Wheel of Laws.]

…

The prompts flickered, and a black Golden Wheel of Laws formed and howled through the air, radiating vast Spiritual Power.

"Finally succeeded!" John let out a long sigh of relief, a smile of joy spreading across his face.

With two hundred million Soul Technique points, he had finally formed the Soul Golden Wheel of Laws. For a regular Emperor-level expert, even a Nine-Star Emperor, without any special fortuitous encounters, it would be nearly impossible to form the Golden Wheel of Laws in their lifetime.

"Leisian, let's go. Time to return to World-in-Hand." He glanced at the drowsy little girl and said.

"Is it finally over?" Leisian instantly woke up, her face filled with surprise and relief. She had almost reached her limit these past few days.

John smiled, storing the giant beast corpses into World-in-Hand. With a thought, he also entered it.

At this moment, in front of the Tree of Life, countless giant beast corpses had piled up into a mountain—over two hundred thousand in total. Nine Phoenix and the others were despondently collecting magic cores.

As long as John had been fighting, they had been collecting, but even now, more than half of the corpses remained unprocessed.

They were more exhausted than John.

"John, you've finally appeared," the others said, letting out a collective sigh of relief as they saw him and Leisian.

At least there wouldn't be any more giant beast corpses to deal with.

Although the magic cores from these Emperor beasts were precious, the continuous collection over the past half month had completely drained their enthusiasm.

Especially since the scales of these Emperor-level beasts were incredibly tough, making them difficult to break open. They couldn't even handle the Six-Star and Seven-Star Emperor beasts.

"Kid, have you comprehended Soul Law?" Thoublade immediately asked.

He could sense that John's Soul Technique had increased dramatically, but he didn't know if he had comprehended Soul Law.

John nodded, saying nothing more. With a thought, the Soul Golden Wheel of Laws was summoned.

Whoosh...

The Golden Wheel of Laws spun, sending out massive waves of Spiritual Power.

Thoublade stood frozen, staring in disbelief. He swallowed hard and said, "Kid, you actually condensed the Golden Wheel of Laws? In just a few days? How much has your Soul Technique increased?"

John gave a slight smile and replied casually, "Not much, two hundred million."

"Dammit!" Thoublade felt a pang of injustice. He had spent countless years refining his cultivation, barely managing to raise his Soul Technique to one hundred million points before comprehending Soul Law.

And yet, John—after only a few days—had raised his Soul Technique to a terrifying two hundred million points and directly condensed the Golden Wheel of Laws.

Is this even human?

He was overwhelmed with a sense of imbalance.

Gaka spoke up to comfort him, "You'll get used to it. This guy's just a monster."

The others nodded in agreement, signaling their understanding.

John, speechless, spoke up, "I've decided to improve my Overseer cultivation a bit more, then refine Kaos' Sea of Laws."

His Overseer cultivation had already reached the early stage of Eight-Star, and he could absorb the Heart of the Continent to continue his progress.

However, to break through to Nine-Star Overseer, he would need to refine a life planet.

But as long as he reached the peak of Eight-Star, his World-in-Hand would also see a significant improvement.

Thoublade nodded. He didn't have absolute confidence that John could devour Kaos' Sea of Laws, but indeed, improving his Overseer cultivation would make it a safer bet.

"Kid," Highshield spoke up at this moment, "You should take back the World-in-Hand authority you granted me. These guys suspect that I'm absorbing the power of laws from your World-in-Hand."

John looked at him, puzzled.

Highshield briefly explained.

"So you're saying that, through the authority of my World-in-Hand, you comprehended the laws I've mastered and perfectly fused World-in-Hand?" John asked, his face full of surprise.

At the time, he had perfectly fused World-in-Hand, but it had required the refinement of numerous treasures: The Tree of Life, the Immortal Giant Sword that created the city, the Law Tree, and the World-in-Hand of the previous Sea God. Only then did he manage to achieve perfect fusion.

Yet Highshield had only received partial authority over his World-in-Hand, comprehended the laws of this place, and with the cultivation of a One-Star Overseer, he had perfectly fused World-in-Hand.

Had his World-in-Hand grown so powerful already?

He looked at Highshield and said, "This is good for you; there's no need to take back my World-in-Hand authority."

He could feel that the power of laws in his World-in-Hand hadn't diminished.

Highshield was moved and said, "Kid, you should talk to them. These guys are really hostile toward me, and I suspect they're jealous."

"Jealous of you?" Thoublade said angrily, his voice cold. "Highshield, you don't think that just because you've perfectly fused World-in-Hand, you're invincible now, do you?"

"Enough," John interrupted the two. "Everyone come over here. I'll give you all partial authority over my World-in-Hand."

Gaka furrowed his brow and quickly advised, "John, this isn't a good idea. If you do that, we might end up devouring the power of laws from your World-in-Hand. The destruction of the Creator God worlds was caused by the loss of their power of laws."

The others also nodded in agreement, insisting that he revoke Highshield's authority.

John looked at them and asked, "Do you know the true essence of creation? Or, more precisely, do those Creator Gods know the true essence of creation?"

The others looked confused. Some of them hadn't even condensed their Golden Wheel of Laws yet, so how could they know the true essence of creation?

John continued, "For the past few days, I've been thinking about this. Creating a world isn't hard, but protecting it is. The Creator Gods of Kaos have been suppressing the Overseers, preventing them from absorbing the power of the laws of Heaven. Is that really the right thing to do?"

Thoublade frowned and said, "But if we don't do this, the laws of Heaven will decay, and this star domain will perish even faster."

John shook his head. "What about the Initial Star Domain? In that world, there are no Creator Gods, and no one suppresses the Overseers. Even the Lord God-level experts there cannot act against the Overseers. I don't know how long the Initial Star Domain has existed, but it's definitely older than the Kaos star domain. Why doesn't it need to suppress the Overseers and has still survived for so long? If the Creator Gods hadn't destroyed it, it would probably continue to exist forever."

The others fell silent, having never considered this question before.

John said no more. With a thought, the power of laws from his World-in-Hand surged, and he granted them partial authority over his World-in-Hand, allowing them to freely use the power and resources within.

"John!" Merciless noticed the changes around them, still feeling some concern.

If they were indeed devouring the laws of John's World-in-Hand while cultivating, it would cause significant harm to him.

He spoke up, "I am the Overseer here, so you don't need to worry. Just focus on comprehending the laws of this place. If there's real danger, I'll stop you."

"But..." Thoublade hesitated, about to speak, but John interrupted.

"I know what I'm doing. I can feel it—another catastrophe is about to arrive. Everyone, focus on improving your strength," John said. With that, he ignored the others and entered closed-door cultivation, taking out a large number of Heart of the Continent to refine and absorb, boosting his Overseer cultivation.

The others didn't say anything further. After a brief hesitation, they too entered closed-door cultivation, focusing on comprehending the laws of John's World-in-Hand.

…

The overwhelming power of laws surrounded them as time passed. Unconsciously, half a month went by.

[Your Overseer cultivation has reached the peak of Eight-Star. Four basic attributes +500 million points.]

The prompt flashed as John refined all the Heart of the Continent he had, raising his Overseer cultivation to the peak of Eight-Star.

His strength saw another massive improvement, with the most notable change being his World-in-Hand, which had become even more vast, boundless.

Additionally, the Dark Rift had fully integrated into his World-in-Hand.

Power of reincarnation?

He vaguely sensed the laws of reincarnation, but hadn't fully mastered them yet.

Reincarnation Law was also at the core of world creation, and one had to condense the Golden Wheels of Reincarnation, Order, and Time to successfully create a world.

He had already condensed seven Golden Wheels of Laws and comprehended Time and Order Laws, but had not yet formed the Golden Wheel of Reincarnation.

He no longer dwelled on this and looked at the others. They had finished their cultivation as well.

"John, I've perfectly fused with World-in-Hand. Does that affect you?" Thoublade asked.

John shook his head. The power of laws in his World-in-Hand had not diminished in the slightest; if anything, it had become stronger.

This reassured the others.

"Have you all perfectly fused with World-in-Hand?" John asked as he looked at the others.

Merciless and Nine Phoenix shook their heads.

"I have perfectly fused," Heavenly King said.

He, along with Thoublade and Highshield, had originally been Overseers who had perfectly fused with World-in-Hand, so it was natural for them to do so smoothly.

But what surprised John was that Chaos and Dulu had also perfectly fused with World-in-Hand.

Chaos was understandable, as he cultivated Chaos laws, and his World-in-Hand had been opened by Chaos Force, which made for a perfect fit.

But what surprised him the most was Dulu.

This big fool had also smoothly and perfectly fused with World-in-Hand.
