In the sky above the Crescent Moon Lake, Li Yue waved his sword and the entire world was enveloped by a terrifying sword light. The huge sword light tore through everything and flew directly towards the white-haired young man and some people who were hiding around him.
Clang!
As the sword light flashed, an ear-piercing sound exploded in the sky.
The white-haired youth did not move at all. The sword light that slashed at him was annihilated, dissipating before it even got close.
This kind of strength was beyond Li Yue's imagination.
Most of the remaining sword light was dodged, but those who wanted to reap the benefits paid a heavy price.
Originally, he thought that even if he couldn't kill the white-haired young man, he would at least force him to do something. However, the white-haired young man didn't move at all from the beginning to the end. He just stared at Li Yue with a cold smile, as if victory was already within his grasp.
Very straightforward and very arrogant.
It was also this extremely domineering attitude that made the hearts of many watching tighten. They understood that this time, the mission target and the white-haired youth would most likely be engaged in a real battle.
No matter who it was, their strength surpassed everyone present, and they were all at the peak of the god level.
"Your strength is indeed not bad!"
The white-haired youth, Ionick, said indifferently. He glanced at the purple-red sword in Li Yue's hand. "I seem to have seen the sword in your hand before. If my guess is correct, it should belong to someone else! "
"Blood … Purple Demon?"
The white-haired youth said, recognizing the origin of the divine sword in Li Yue's hand at a glance. "The Blood Purple Demon died long ago. It's said that millions of years ago, he died in a material plane. He was killed by that guy, Beirut!
"I don't know how you got this sword. It doesn't matter which material plane you came from, or if you went there, or if you got this sword by chance, but … this is not a divine weapon you created yourself!"
"Are you hiding your strength from me, or … you don't even have a divine weapon that belongs to you …"
Li Yue muttered.
"I see!"
He did not pay attention to the white-haired youth's nonsensical words. Instead, he understood from these words why he had not killed or shaken this white-haired youth.
Divine artifacts. Sovereign artifacts.
This white-haired youth should have a Sovereign artifact.
Thus, his status naturally became clear. He was a Sovereign's Emissary, or the child of a Sovereign. However, he had never heard of such a powerful figure amongst the children of a Sovereign. Thus, the chances of this being an Emissary were very high.
"So you are a Sovereign's Emissary. You have a defensive Sovereign artifact. No wonder my previous sword attack was unable to shake you!"
With a defensive Sovereign artifact, unless Li Yue's attacks were able to break through the Sovereign artifact's defenses, it would be virtually impossible for him to be killed by material attacks.
In addition, a Sovereign's Emissary definitely had Sovereign's Might. This white-haired youth, Aeonic, had yet to use his Sovereign's Might.
Thus, it was quite easy to guess that this Seven Star Fiend-level old man was definitely a descendant of a Sovereign. Otherwise, given that the two didn't have a good relationship, why would a powerful Sovereign's Emissary have to personally appear?
Everything made sense. Li Yue thought back to when he had killed the old man's divine Destruction clone. The old man had let out an incomparably shocked howl of rage. Clearly, he had revealed his true form, but had still been killed without even asking. Naturally, he had died a miserable death.
Unfortunately, even though he had analyzed this, Li Yue didn't care. He didn't know which Sovereign this fellow was the descendant of, and so he didn't care. If he killed him, then so be it.
"What, you want to put up a final struggle before you die?"
The white-haired youth, Aeonic, said coldly. As he saw it, the silent Li Yue clearly had tacitly agreed with his words and wanted to resist.
Li Yue's words were correct. He did indeed have a defensive Sovereign artifact. Thus, in terms of material attacks, Aeonic wasn't afraid at all.
"It'll be hard …"
"It'll be very hard to kill him with material attacks. Soul attacks aren't my strong suit either. This fellow is a Highgod of Fate. His soul attacks and defense are innately powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen a defensive Sovereign artifact over a soul-protecting one."
He was very confident.
The white-haired youth was very confident in his own soul-protecting abilities.
This was the first person Li Yue had encountered before coming to the Infernal Realm that was extremely troublesome. A peak Asura with a Sovereign artifact. He was a calm person. Apart from being a little arrogant in his words and attitude, he didn't have any weaknesses.
He was very troublesome.
"If I were a Paragon, I wouldn't be afraid of him. I'd just crush him to death or exile him!"
"However, although I've comprehended the edicts of destruction to the peak of a Highgod, this level isn't enough to kill him. It'll be difficult for me to even exile him!"
"I can only … go all out!"
…
After making a decision in his heart, Li Yue slowly closed his eyes. Within his body, four distinct and distinct types of divine power suddenly exploded. With a rumble, they fused together.
The Highgod level Destruction and Life divine power, and the Midgod level Death and Fate divine power. The two fused together, and in the end, the four became one, transforming into a ray of gray light that rapidly circulated within his body.
Hiss!
Hiss! Clear sounds rang out from various parts of his body. At this moment, the direct effect of the fusion of the four types of divine power was strengthening, a crazy strengthening.
Every part of his body was wriggling and transforming with every breath he took. Cells, bones, blood, flesh, organs …
In just a few breaths, the gray divine power wildly circulated and transformed.
Rip!
Li Yue's upper body exploded, and his tattered robes flew everywhere. In just a short time, his face was somewhat flushed. This was a kind of unaccustomed, a kind of uncomfortable feeling.
In his mind, four Godhoods of different colors flickered incessantly. Then, with a series of cracking sounds, they broke apart cleanly. Like a liquid, they fused together, becoming a small gray ball that floated in the depths of his soul.
This change was very fast and also very sudden. Li Yue was caught off guard and was very unaccustomed to it.
The Godhoods were broken and fused together, and he was completely fine. Instead, he felt very fulfilled. This was really too unexpected.
"This time …"
Li Yue stared at Ionick. "It's different from what I imagined. I originally planned to wait for the four laws to become Highgods before fusing them together, but this sudden fusion has brought about such a huge change. It's really beyond my imagination!"
There were not too many changes, nor were there any strange phenomena of the laws of heaven and earth. There was only a slightly flushed Li Yue, and that terrifying strength that was constantly transforming and accumulating.
"Hm? His aura … is getting stronger? Is it a transformation … or is he using some treasure … "
Ionick's expression changed slightly. Although Li Yue's transformation was fast and subtle, at such a close distance, he could easily sense the difference.
And this difference was still continuing, still changing, and becoming more and more obscure!
"Die!"
Ionick finally lost his patience.
He did not know what had happened to Li Yue, but now, he only wanted to kill him to prevent any accidents.
A transparent crystal sword had appeared in Ionick's hand at some point, and then divine power erupted, bringing with it the near-perfect might of the laws of fate as it slashed at Li Yue.
In the face of this sword, Li Yue's eyes flickered, but he did not dodge. Instead, he calmly raised his right hand and lightly tapped the sword.
"So weak!"
