The conflicts between Sovereigns had always been limited. Unless there were special circumstances, if Sovereigns had conflicts with each other, they would try to mediate. If they couldn't mediate, they could only settle it in chaotic space.
In this universe, there were far too few Sovereigns. Since ancient times, only seventy-seven Sovereigns had been born.
Quite a few had gone missing or died. Thus, the number of Sovereigns had never been perfect.
Augusta didn't recognize Li Yue, so he naturally believed that Li Yue was a lucky fellow who had picked up some Sovereign's legacy. Thus, he didn't hesitate at all when it came to killing Li Yue.
"This fellow came out of nowhere. If I kill him, then so be it. Even the Chief Sovereign of the Laws won't be able to find a reason to deal with me!"
Besides, with Orloff's protection, he wasn't afraid at all.
… …
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Within the multicolored chaotic space, Augusta and Li Yue battled. Ear-piercing explosions rang out as their figures intersected. Each time they clashed, a terrifying explosion would erupt from the center of the two, spreading out in all directions and disrupting space.
"Die! Die! Die!"
Orloff's face was as cold as ice. The Overgod Sword in his hands chopped out wildly, sword after sword, without the slightest hint of stopping. That powerful material attack was on full display with every slash of his sword, ripping apart one fissure after another and causing massive waves to rise!
The combination of the Chief Sovereign and the Overgod Sword could already be considered invincible. But after several minutes, Augusta still hadn't been able to take down Li Yue. In fact … the more Li Yue fought, the more relaxed he became, as though he had already adapted to Augusta's attacks.
The sharpness of the Overgod Sword was blocked. Augusta didn't know what it was. It was formless and colorless, but it was extremely terrifying.
And the more he didn't know, the more he feared it.
"It's about time. Orloff should be arriving soon, right?"
His sword slashed down, forcing Li Yue back. Augusta hefted the Overgod Sword, his face cold as he thought to himself.
"As long as Orloff arrives, that fellow will definitely die!"
No one knew better than him just how terrifying Orloff was. However, Orloff had always been obsessed with research and cultivation, obsessed with breaking through the limits of the Sovereigns. He wanted to surpass the Sovereigns and reach an even higher level.
He had always kept a low profile.
But Augusta understood that Orloff's research had already yielded some results. Although he didn't know exactly how it would be used in practice, he knew that it wouldn't disappoint him.
Moreover, as a research maniac, how could Orloff not be tempted by a living example like Li Yue?
At the thought of this, Augusta looked at Li Yue with an even colder gaze, not concealing the sarcasm in his eyes.
He had nothing to fear. He truly had nothing to fear.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he knew that he couldn't defeat Li Yue by himself. However, if Orloff arrived, everything would be different. Thus, all he had to do was stall Li Yue and prevent him from escaping.
…
Within chaotic space, Li Yue stood not too far away from Augusta, looking at him with a gaze as calm as still water.
"This Augusta is so unbridled. It seems that he has a way to defeat me!"
"He definitely won't be able to do it himself. Then … it can only be Orloff!"
Call for reinforcements?!
Thinking of this, Li Yue inwardly smiled.
"He really is vengeful. As expected, it's not much different from how the original story described it!"
Augusta was truly a despicable person. There was no reason to speak with someone like him. Only the fist was the absolute truth.
At the same time, relying on his current strength alone definitely wouldn't be enough. Augusta alone was fine, but if Orloff was added to the mix, it would be difficult for him to survive.
Escaping wouldn't work either.
Augusta stared at him. With his strength, it would be easy for him to stall Lin Yun. There was no way Lin Yun could escape.
He could only endure!
"Do you think you're the only one who knows how to call for reinforcements?"
Li Yue was extremely clear in his heart. Since Augusta had already made up his mind to kill him, there was no other choice.
Call for reinforcements? He would too.
Unknowingly, Li Yue's mind sank, connecting with a great existence in a distant space-time.
"Main body, I'm in trouble now!"
Li Yue muttered in his heart.
He knew that the main body would definitely hear his voice. Because he was now a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, jumping out of the past, present, and future, transcending the boundaries of space-time. Mere distance naturally couldn't obstruct the connection between him and the main body.
If he hadn't reached Zenith Heaven, he definitely wouldn't have succeeded. But since he had reached Zenith Heaven, he would definitely succeed.
"Speak!"
In his heart, an indifferent voice exploded at this moment. In an instant, that indifferent voice spread throughout his heart, as if this was the only voice left in the world.
"I've offended the ultimate villain in this universe. Now, the ultimate villain is calling for people to get rid of me. So, I'll have to trouble you!"
Augusta could indeed be considered the ultimate villain of the Coiling Dragon world. After all, everything started because of him. Orloff could only be considered the ultimate villain behind the scenes, or rather, the one who cleaned up after him.
It was just that later on, Orloff wanted to break through the Overgod boundary. After a series of events, he had no choice but to become the ultimate boss. But from Li Yue's point of view, Augusta should be the source of all the trouble.
"Got it!" The main body's indifferent voice sounded. After speaking, it completely disappeared. He didn't know if it had heard it or not.
But Li Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the main body agreed, everything would be fine. Although he didn't know how far away he was, with the main body's strength, it shouldn't be a problem to make a move from such a distance, right?
"At the very least, it should be easy to deal with Augusta and Orloff."
It was just that he still needed some time.
Li Yue was thinking to himself. Just as this thought flashed through his mind, an enormous black hole suddenly exploded out behind Augusta. Boundless amounts of chaotic space flowed out in torrents, creating terrifying, multicolored waves.
Within the black hole, an old man dressed in moon-white robes appeared before Li Yue's eyes. This old man had an amiable face, and his eyes were as calm as water. His entire body emanated an amiable aura. This person was the Chief Sovereign of Fate, Orloff.
In the Coiling Dragon universe, he was the most low-key and most shut-in.
"Hahaha, you're dead for sure!" Augusta laughed loudly, staring at Li Yue as though he were a dead man.
"Augusta, is he the one you were talking about?" Orloff frowned, then looked at Augusta and asked.
"Yes, that's him. This fellow is actually capable of stopping time, and can even fight against Overgod artifacts with his bare hands. It doesn't seem to be some sort of innate divine ability. Very strange!"
Augusta said to Orloff. Although the two of them were the same person, in Augusta's heart, he was still rather afraid of Orloff.
He represented the evil side of Orloff, who had inherited the seven emotions and six desires of the two of them. As for Orloff, he was emotionless, the other side of Orloff, who had no desires.
Although he appeared to be amiable on the surface, he was a truly emotionless person.
"It is indeed strange!" Orloff stared at Li Yue. "In the past few million years, aside from Beirut being an exception, there has never been a Sovereign born!"
"I've never seen you before. Your aura is indeed that of a Sovereign, but your ripples don't belong to any of the Four Edicts or the Seven Edicts."
"Strange, strange!"
Orloff stared at Li Yue, his gaze growing stranger and stranger. His gaze was so blatant, it seemed as though he wanted to rip Li Yue apart. It was hair-raising.
Li Yue had seen this gaze before. His original body had been this type of person in the past. For the sake of achieving his goals, he would do anything. When he saw his goal, he would be filled with an invisible fervor.
Clearly, Orloff had set his sights on him.
When he thought of this, Li Yue sighed in his heart. Indeed, he had been discovered.
Although his concealment techniques were quite good, and he had been able to hide from Augusta, Orloff had seen through him with a single glance.
"That's right. This indeed isn't one of the Seven Edicts. It isn't one of the Four Edicts!" Li Yue nodded, speaking very directly.
"Oh? So you're saying that you've broken through the boundary between Deities and Sovereigns? "
Orloff's eyes instantly lit up. His gaze was even more direct, and he didn't try to hide the light in his eyes at all.
