Far away, on a mountain peak near the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts, after training for many days, Li Yue finally returned to his own courtyard.
This time, he had gained many insights. Although he had been disturbed a few times, it hadn't been a moment of enlightenment. The disturbance wasn't important.
Although it was annoying, it had been resolved.
The elegant courtyard was located at the peak of the mountain range. It wasn't large, but it looked very open. Below it was a deep, dark valley. There weren't any magical beasts in the valley, but there were many wild beasts and plants. Sitting at the peak of the mountain and looking down at the beautiful scenery below was quite an enjoyable experience.
"My training in the Edicts of Death and Fate has already begun. If I continue to slowly gain insights like this, in a few years or a few decades, I'll be able to reach the God level!"
Within the courtyard, Li Yue murmured to himself.
This sort of speed could already be considered extremely fast. To others, this was something which they couldn't even imagine. However, Li Yue was a Highgod of Destruction to begin with. As the saying went, the higher one stood, the further one could see. The deeper one's understanding of the Four Edicts grew, the more helpful it would be for him when he came into contact with other Edicts.
Most importantly of all, his soul was fundamentally superior to this universe. Naturally, his comprehension abilities were extraordinary as well. It was understandable that he was so fast in gaining insights into the Edicts.
"After these two become Gods of the Edicts, I'll go to the Higher Planes!"
There was nothing in the Yulan continent that Li Yue wanted. The Necropolis of the Gods, which others coveted, was nothing more than a fleeting cloud to him.
Outsiders didn't know, but Li Yue knew very well.
The so-called Necropolis of the Gods was a place which Beirut had personally opened up. Within it were many treasures and divine artifacts, and there were powerful Overseers guarding them.
Amongst them, the most valuable were the Sovereign artifacts and corpses of Sovereigns in the top levels of the Necropolis of the Gods, and even the Sovereign sparks.
That was the key.
However, Li Yue himself didn't meet the requirements for a Sovereign spark. He didn't train in the Laws; he trained in the Edicts. Thus, the Sovereign spark which Beirut possessed was destined to not belong to him.
As for Sovereign artifacts? Although they were powerful, he didn't care about them. This was because he was confident that sooner or later, his body would become even more powerful than a Sovereign artifact.
…..
Time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years had passed.
During this period of time, the entire Yulan continent was strangely peaceful. During this period of time, there were quite a few people who left the Yulan continent and entered the Higher Planes to adventure and adventure.
There was no lack of people who came to visit Li Yue, but they were all chased out and ignored.
Li Yue was very busy.
As time passed, his cultivation became smoother and smoother, and he went deeper and deeper.
The Death Laws and Fate Laws continued to advance step by step. There was no qualitative leap in their progress. On the other hand, the Law of Destruction had actually improved a lot in the past 20 years. It had gone from more than 70% to 80%. It could be said to be a pleasant surprise.
"The path of cultivation is one of tension and one of relaxation."
Although fighting and killing were beneficial to one's comprehension of the Law of Destruction, it was … too stressful. Sometimes, when he relaxed, there would be unexpected gains.
Destruction didn't mean destruction. It also meant a new cycle of reincarnation. This was one of the insights Li Yue had gained from the Laws of Death and Fate over the past ten years. This was a tremendous improvement in the Laws of Destruction, and it proved one of his ideas.
The Four Edicts were tightly linked to each other to begin with. They could be fused together.
To ordinary Deities, the fusion of Edicts was as impossible as a legend. But to Li Yue, who was born as a Soul Mutate, there was no such limitation.
Different types of divine power could be fused together. Why couldn't different Laws and Edicts be fused together?
"Only, now isn't the time to fuse different Edicts. After I reach the level of perfection in all four Edicts, I should be able to fuse them together much more easily!"
"But right now, my most important task is to reach the level of perfection in all four Edicts. After all, I haven't even learned how to crawl. If I want to learn how to run, I'm biting off more than I can chew!"
After he reached the level of perfection in all four Edicts and successfully fused his divine power, he would fuse the Edicts together. By then … Li Yue guessed … that even if his power wouldn't surpass that of a Sovereign, it would most likely be close.
…..
Days passed, one after another. The peaceful Yulan continent finally welcomed new guests.
Deep within the Arctic Icecap, at the peak of a towering iceberg. This was the place where the Planar Overseer, Hodan, lived.
At the peak of this iceberg, there were a total of eleven complicated magical formations in the shape of a six-pointed star. These were the interplanar teleportation arrays.
Hodan was currently standing in front of one of the magical formations. That complicated magical formation was currently glowing with a dazzling light. Rays of light shot into the skies. The center of the magical formation was like a dream.
Hodan's face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
"They're here." Hodan's eyes lit up. At the center of the magical formation, a group of blurry figures suddenly appeared. Slowly, the light of the magical formation dissipated, revealing the dozens of people who had appeared within the magical formation. These dozens of people naturally emanated auras that caused one's heart to tremble.
The leader was dressed in a luxurious black robe embroidered with gold. He was handsome and elegant, like a noble on a parade. When he saw Hodan, he immediately smiled and said, "Hodan, we haven't seen each other for thousands of years. You've worked hard all these years."
Hodan immediately bowed respectfully. "Lord Sadista, I am honored to be of service to the clan. You are my honor! "
Sadista's hands were clasped in front of his chest, occasionally rubbing an exquisite magic rune ring on his finger. Laughing calmly, he said, "Hodan. The information you sent to the clan was very brief. You had best tell us more about the current situation in the Yulan continent. "
"Lord Sadista. Over ten years ago, there was a problem with the passageway between the Yulan continent and the Planar Prison, causing quite a few Deities to flee. Although Lord Beirut went to seal the passageway … There were still quite a few Deities who fled. "
"Aside from a small number of experts who went to the Higher Planes and the Divine Planes, the majority of the experts remained in the Yulan continent. Most likely, they are all waiting for a chance to enter the Necropolis of the Gods! "
Sadista nodded slightly.
"Hodan. Are there any Highgod level experts? "Sadista asked.
"Yes. I know of several. One of them is named 'Adkins'. However, over ten years ago, this Adkins was engaged in a great battle with someone, and was instantly killed by a supreme expert. That attack even pierced through hundreds of kilometers of mountain range, and even now, it still leaves behind a terrifying gash." Hodan said respectfully.
"Instantly killed a Highgod? Pierced through hundreds of kilometers? "Sadista frowned.
He didn't care about ordinary people, but Highgods were different. At the very least, they weren't weak. An expert capable of instantly killing a Highgod naturally caused him to frown.
Although he, Sadista, had been through many battles in the Infernal Realm of the Higher Planes, Sadista knew very well.
To be able to survive in the Planar Prison … And to have reached the Highgod level. This Adkins definitely wasn't someone that some of the major powers or clans of the Infernal Realm, who had used divine sparks to raise inexperienced Highgods.
But even someone like this had been instantly killed. How powerful was the person who killed him?
In addition, Hodan's description was simply too astonishing. Piercing through hundreds of kilometers of mountain range with a single blow, even in a material plane, wasn't something that an ordinary expert could accomplish.
"At least a Seven Star Fiend!"
Even in his clan, there weren't many experts like this. In the entire Infernal Realm, they were at the very peak. He definitely couldn't afford to offend them.
"That person … for now, let's ignore him. Our goal is the Necropolis of the Gods. So long as we can acquire the Sovereign artifact within the Necropolis of the Gods, that's enough!"
Sadista looked at Hodan. "The next time we open the Necropolis of the Gods. When will that be? "
"Roughly a thousand years from now." Hodan replied.
Sadista nodded. "Then let's wait. After all, the Protector of the Necropolis of the Gods, Beirut, is extremely powerful. We can't afford to offend him. Since he has set down the rules, then we'll abide by them!"
"Uncle, why don't we just charge into the Necropolis of the Gods, or force Beirut to open it for us?" Behind Sadista, a youth spoke out.
"You don't understand!" Sadista shook his head. He knew exactly how powerful Beirut was. "Beirut's power is far more terrifying than you can imagine. Ten thousand years ago, the Yulan continent experienced a destructive war. Do you know about the Bloodviolet Fiend who roamed the Infernal Realm and the Twelve-Winged Angel of the Divine Light Plane … all of them were peak-level Highgods."
"Bloodviolet Fiend?" The youth sighed in amazement.
In the Infernal Realm, the Bloodviolet Fiend was a legendary figure. In fact, quite a few experts of the Infernal Realm believed that the Bloodviolet Fiend already had the power to receive the title of 'Asura'.
Asura!
In the Infernal Realm, this was an extremely revered title. Only the most powerful of Highgods could receive this title, even more powerful than Seven Star Fiends.
"The result of that war. All of the Highgods perished! Not a single one survived. In the end, the only survivor was Beirut! "Sadista sighed." Although I don't know exactly what happened during that battle. Just based on this alone … Beirut should be even more terrifying than the Bloodviolet Fiend! Tell me, can such an expert be forced? Although my power isn't bad, I'm only at the Six Star Fiend level. I'm far from Beirut's level. "
Sadista's words caused everyone behind him to sigh in amazement.
They were all Gods and Demigods, nothing more. As for many secrets, they weren't qualified to know about them when they were in the clan.
"Right. Hodan, the Yulan continent has one of the branches of the Four Divine Beasts clan, right?" Sadista suddenly asked. "The Four Divine Beasts of the Four Divine Beasts clan, do they have any descendants in the Yulan continent?"
"They do, and quite a bit at that." Hodan replied.
Sadista's face sank.
"Hmph. They actually have more!" Sadista's face suddenly turned grim. His face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. "How many? Kill them all. Don't leave a single one alive! "
Hodan shook his head. "Lord Sadista, the Four Divine Beasts clan currently only has the Dragonblood Warriors. They've even established an Empire in the continent, especially one named Linley. His relationship with Lord Beirut is extraordinary. "
"Linley?" Sadista frowned.
"Linley is a member of the Dragonblood Warrior clan, but he has a magical beast. More importantly … this magical beast is the legendary 'Godeater Rat'. Aside from Lord Beirut, there is only one Godeater Rat in the countless planes of the universe! Lord Beirut dotes on this Godeater Rat the most. If, milord, you wish to act against Linley's group … You would be making a direct enemy of Lord Beirut. "Hodan said hurriedly. "Milord, the bigger picture is more important."
Sadista's face sank.
Hodan knew very well that Sadista truly wanted to kill the members of the Four Divine Beasts clan.
He wanted to as well, but there was nothing he could do.
"Milord. This is just one of the branches. It won't affect the bigger picture. Right now, the most important place is the Necropolis of the Gods. "Hodan said hurriedly.
How could Sadista not know what was important and what Beirut's background was? Sadista vaguely knew that if he were to become enemies with Beirut … he wouldn't want to. Sadista let out a long sigh. "For now, let's not make a move against those people. This Linley actually got together with a Godeater Rat. What luck. "
"Then, let's deal with the matter of the Necropolis of the Gods first, then we'll discuss other matters!"
"Hodan, you stay here for now. I'll take the others and leave first!" As he spoke, Sadista waved his hand, leading his subordinates into the skies, flying towards the Yulan continent.
