Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Run! Hurry, Johnnie!
“You’ve already met Astraea? Wait, I have something important to do. I’ll contact you in a few hours.”

The voice of the Lust Witch came out of the statue. Johnnie could barely hear some fighting sounds mixed in.

Before he could listen more clearly, all the sounds inside the statue suddenly disappeared.

He had hoped to get more useful information from the Lust Witch, but now it looked like he’d have to wait some more.

Johnnie looked at the fire burning fiercely beside him and took a deep breath.

Even if he was going to give up and leave the ancient battlefield, he wouldn’t do it until he was sure there was absolutely no chance left!

After a short rest, Johnnie put out the fire, cleaned up all the traces, and jumped onto his Void Sword. He continued moving westward.

After being attacked by the killing intent of countless weapons in the canyon, his Eight Desolations Body-Tempering Art had reached the thirteenth level. Now, his bones were as white as jade and his blood as golden as gold.

But even with this power boost, nothing had changed. Instead, Johnnie felt even more pressure in his heart.

Was he really going to just back down and leave the ancient battlefield to those Star Raiders?

He was very unwilling. He knew all too well that letting the enemy get what they wanted would only bring trouble later.

As his flying sword flew fast, Johnnie kept looking down at the land below.

Suddenly, the Void Sword slowed down.

Johnnie slowly lowered himself to about a hundred meters above the ground. He looked carefully at the surroundings and frowned.

There were signs of a fight, and there was even scattered blood on the ground.

It looked like someone had met a strong enemy, got hurt, and then ran away in a panic.

From the traces left behind, Johnnie couldn’t tell if it was a Star Raider being chased or a genius from the Celestial Clan being attacked.

He thought for a moment, then controlled his Void Sword and followed the marks on the ground.

If it was a Star Raider, he would deal with them right away. As for a Celestial Clan genius, he could at least help a little, and maybe ask about Sunny.

Johnnie was still curious—had Sunny gone through the Heavenly Tribulation after entering the ancient battlefield?

The Void Sword flew fast. Not long after, a terrible body appeared before Johnnie.

It was a body with both arms twisted off and both legs cut off. The blood had dried up, and the face was unrecognizable. It lay alone next to a pile of ashes from a fire.

Johnnie flew a little closer and saw the body clearly.

“Lynn?”

His eyes widened in shock when he recognized the body.

This person was Lynn—who had been with Sean!

At this moment, Johnnie noticed that Lynn’s body was missing a lot of flesh. It didn’t look like it was cut off during a battle.

He jumped down and quickly saw the long, deep cuts all over Lynn’s body.

Someone had cut off his flesh piece by piece while he was still alive…

Johnnie took a deep breath. He looked at the twisted, painful face of the dead man and slowly reached out to close his wide-open eyes.

“Treating humans in the ancient battlefield as prey?”

“Damn it…”

With a wave of his hand, the ground beneath him suddenly turned into several flying swords, and a deep pit formed instantly.

He placed Lynn’s body into the pit and covered it with the soil.

He still remembered the moment when Henry, along with Sean and himself, had been watching over him.

Johnnie once again jumped onto his Void Sword and flew into the air. His eyes turned sharp, filled with a hidden anger.

He had just barely broken through to Stage 10, and now he was about to leave the ancient battlefield. That was already hard to accept. Now, seeing Star Raiders brutally killing people—and even eating corpses—made his anger even worse.

The killing intent in his chest stirred, and a hint of red appeared in his eyes.

In the next moment, Johnnie took a deep breath. He had to control his killing intent carefully, or it might explode from his chest.

The ancient battlefield was already full of killing intent. Even the light was a pale red. To Johnnie, it felt like he was carrying a time bomb. One wrong move, and he could die.

Terra Lady’s words before she disappeared were still fresh in his mind.

If he wanted to use the Nine Nether Soul-Forging Art of Lethal Will as fast as possible, he needed to absorb and refine the killing intent in his chest. And the best way was to let his soul leave his body.

The Nine Nether Soul-Forging Art of Lethal Will even mentioned this.

Normally, absorbing killing intent and tempering the soul needed a physical body. For the soul, the body acted as a buffer.

The killing intent had to go through the body first before it could be absorbed by the soul, allowing the soul to be refined.

If you skipped the body, the soul would face the killing intent directly. One mistake, and it could be completely destroyed. That was extremely dangerous.

So, Johnnie didn’t try it right away. If the Lust Witch didn’t make any progress, he would leave the battlefield and slowly absorb the killing intent in his chest later.

As he thought, he kept flying.

Soon, he saw two more bodies on the ground in the distance—Sean and Henry.

Sean was still alive, but most of the flesh on his arms and legs had been cut off. Only thin layers of muscle and tendons were left, sticking to his white bones.

Before Johnnie could get close, Sean noticed him first.

He bit his teeth, struggled to lift his head, and opened his mouth as if trying to say something.

“Run!”

“Hurry, run!” Sean kept making mouth movements to tell Johnnie.

Johnnie suddenly stopped in mid-air. He carefully sensed the surroundings and found no enemies hiding nearby.

“I feel evil energy.” said Evil-Slaying Thunder Sword in Johnnie’s mind.

Sean suddenly coughed up a lot of blood. His body kept moving, trying to get as far away from Johnnie as possible.

At the same time, he kept making mouth movements, trying to warn Johnnie that it was dangerous.

“Tsk tsk, what a fool. He’s almost dead but still doesn’t call for help.” a voice said calmly.

Around Sean, flashes of light appeared. Two small figures with lizard-like heads, like chameleons, slowly came into view.

One of them held a bloodied knife and walked up to Sean. He cut off a piece of flesh from Sean’s body and then looked at Johnnie.

“I thought I’d catch something big, but it turned out to be just a useless nobody who hasn’t even reached Domain yet.”

“Good, the bait is almost done. I’ll be more careful this time and won’t let you die so fast.”

The other Star Raider, with a chameleon head, lazily yawned and sat by the fire, roasting meat. He said calmly to his partner:

“I’m not full yet. Take care of this one.”

“The taste of these humans is good. Once we take over their world, I want to try other ways to cook them. What do you think—frying?”

The two Star Raiders didn’t take Johnnie seriously at all. They talked and relaxed as if nothing was wrong.

In their eyes, Johnnie didn’t have the aura of a Domain master. He was just a weak, unimportant human.

Even if Johnnie turned around and ran, they could catch him with no effort.

Only Sean was still struggling, shaking his head. His eyes were full of sorrow—not asking Johnnie to save him, but begging him to run away quickly.

Sean opened his mouth again, which was full of blood, and tried to speak with all his strength.

“Johnnie… cough… run… run… they… there are a lot of them.”

“Find… help… run.”

Even as he was dying, Sunny never thought about asking Johnnie to save him.

Because there weren’t just two enemies. Some other Star Raiders had left for a moment, and although Sunny had seen Johnnie’s strength—enough to kill The Blood Demon-God—this time.

The Blood Demon-God had been injured. And these Star Raiders were many, strong, and dangerous. Johnnie had no chance at all.

Sunny didn’t want Johnnie to end up like him, suffering and tortured.

He tried to reach for a weapon that had fallen beside him, hoping to end his own life.

But his arms had very little flesh left. Moving was painful and hard.

So, Sean could only turn his head and look at the nearby Star Raider, and curse:

“Go to hell, you useless trash… if you’re so strong, just kill me!”

The Star Raider next to him became angry. He didn’t understand why this guy wanted to die so badly.

Just a moment ago, if he had called for help, the new bait would have come to save him.

But instead, he kept warning them.

Now he even wanted to end his life by insulting them.

The Star Raider held back his anger and slowly looked at Johnnie, a cruel and strange smile on his face. He said to Sean:

“I won’t kill you. Soon, I’ll let you taste what your friends taste like.”

Sean’s eyes widened in horror. He looked back at Johnnie and saw that he was flying toward them.

And in the distance, more Star Raiders were appearing, rushing back.

Seeing this, Sean closed his eyes in despair.

“Damn it, why didn’t I die earlier? Now Johnnie is going to…” He was still blaming himself in his mind.

At that moment, he heard a voice—cold and clear—slowly speaking.

“Sword Realm!”
