Chapter Summaries

At the Lord God Conference, the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods gained a carefully limited Sovereign status after Roy warned Leding of a plot against them. News of Roy’s Grand Perfection spread across the planes, drawing powerful gods to Hell and helping the Four Divine Beast Family grow its influence.

• Lord Gods objected to elevating the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods until a Law Sovereign explained that the Lord God Pact left them vulnerable to the four brothers.
• The Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind Sovereigns planned to exploit the brothers’ new status and obtain their Sovereign Sparks, following Bright Sovereign August’s advice.
• After Roy warned him by divine-sense transmission, Leding proposed that the brothers count as Sovereigns only when together; Destiny Sovereign Off set their status as Mid-level Lord Gods when separated.
• The Lord Gods accepted Destiny Sovereign Off’s decision, and attendants spread news that Roy was the first Grand Perfection High-level God outside the Lord Gods in hundreds of millions of years.
• Powerful High-level Gods flocked to Hell, while the Four Divine Beast Family’s safe cities attracted newcomers and helped its reputation, resources, and membership grow.

Roy learned that Asura Prefects were gathering in Azure Mansion to witness a Paragon, and he flew there to protect the Four Divine Beast Family. He arrived to find five armed Asuras overwhelming the family’s six experts, and recognized the confrontation as a trap aimed at him.

• Shelley reported that High-level Gods and Asura Prefects were flocking to Azure Mansion, so Roy decided to go there and have his battle recorded for sale.
• Roy asked Shelley whether the Death Sovereign had mistreated her, and learned that she had gained power and become the Lord God's Emissary.
• Roy flew to Azure Mansion and found Gaisleith and the family’s other experts facing Elvis and four Asuras.
• Elvis used two Lord God Artifacts and Destruction Lord God Power, and his group of five attacked the Four Divine Beast Family’s six experts.
• Roy arrived as the family was struggling against the five opponents and realized the confrontation was a trap aimed at him.

Roy arrived at Azure Mansion during an attack by five Asuras backed by Lord Gods and quickly overwhelmed them. When their three Sovereign Artifacts made them immune to his attacks, Roy used Kingdom in the Palm to trap them, astonishing the watching gods.

• Roy sensed that Lord Gods had coordinated the uprising in Azure Mansion and warned the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods before arriving.
• Roy struck Elvis and the other five Asuras into the ground with single palm strikes, while the six defenders of the Four Divine Beast Family recovered under Sovereign's Might.
• Roy realized the five attackers had full Sovereign Artifact Sets and enough Sovereign's Might to resist his attacks, so he avoided using power beyond Grand Perfection Willpower.
• Elvis and the other five emerged unharmed and mocked Roy, boasting that their Sovereign Artifact Sets made them impossible to kill.
• Roy answered their taunts by casting Kingdom in the Palm, enclosing the five in a transparent membrane where a small world began to form.

Roy imprisoned five Sovereign Artifact Set wearers in a Willpower-made small plane above Azure Mansion, establishing his reputation as invincible and deterring troublemakers. Meanwhile, Nathaniel Pegg uncovered the Four Divine Beast Family’s magic systems and finally received an audience with Qingya Lord God, leaving him about to reveal what he had learned.

• Roy trapped Elvis and the other four in a small divine kingdom, then pinned them beneath Five Finger Mountain and suspended the prison above Azure Mansion as a warning.
• Roy reasoned that the five were pawns carrying Sovereign Artifacts supplied in violation of the Lord God Pact, and he expected the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods to watch for anyone attempting a rescue.
• Nathaniel Pegg returned to his Material Plane and discovered that Four Divine Beast Magic Academy taught magic containing traces of the Profound Mysteries of Laws.
• Nathaniel secretly copied the academy’s earth, wind, water, and fire magic systems, then sought a meeting with a Lord God through the Sovereign Legion.
• After more than three hundred years, Nathaniel met Buwell, commander of the Qingya Legion, and waited a century for Qingya Lord God to summon them.
• Buwell woke Nathaniel and took him to meet Qingya Lord God, warning him that he would face consequences if his secret proved unimportant.

Qingya Lord God learned that magic could increase the chance of becoming a god and potentially help Lord Gods advance, so he ordered its spread and recruited followers. As competing Lord Gods claimed credit for the same spells taught by the Four Divine Beast Sovereigns, tensions grew and the fuse of war appeared.

• Nathaniel told Qingya Lord God about magic and presented four spellbooks from the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy.
• Qingya Lord God concluded that magic could raise the chance of becoming a god and wondered whether faith could help him reach Paragon level.
• Qingya Lord God ordered Buwell to gather information, recruit Wind Element cultivators, and teach magic, then authorized Nathaniel to form a legion and spread his faith.
• Lord Gods across the planes recruited gods and Saints to spread their faith and establish magic academies, while many former students of the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy joined rival legions.
• Magic academies began teaching that different Lord Gods had created the same spells, confusing students and enraging members of the Four Divine Beast Family.

Laurent, Fred, Quiller, and Debra retaliated against Manlu Magic Academy for claiming the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods’ magic as its own, while Shelley brought their broader proposal to Roy. Roy approved a cautious campaign against rival faith-seekers and ordered the family to protect its academies across recorded Material Planes.

• Laurent, Fred, Quiller, and Debra discovered that Manlu Magic Academy was claiming the Four Divine Beast Family’s earth magic as its own and decided to act against it.
• The four deans secretly destroyed Manlu Magic Academy with disasters, then brought its surviving students to the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy to start learning its magic.
• Shelley reviewed reports of rival Lord Gods competing for faith and brought Laurent Earth’s proposed response to Roy for a decision.
• Roy approved the family’s countermeasures, telling members to assess opponents’ strength, withdraw if needed, and seek help from powerful elders before silencing them.
• Roy ordered the family to check on its recorded Material Planes and send Lord God armies against those attacking Four Divine Beast Magic Academies.

The Four Divine Beast Family’s campaign against rival Lord Gods escalated into a war of faith across countless Material Planes, and Roy delayed his breakthrough while ordering family members to protect themselves. After Gaisleith arrived too late to save four clansmen and their academy, he vowed that the family would keep fighting until no one dared challenge it.

• Under Shelley’s command, the Four Divine Beast Family attacked rival academies, killed their staff, and taught students about the Lord Gods who had stolen the family’s achievements.
• As rival Lord Gods and their forces entered the war across countless planes, Roy ordered family members spreading faith to keep Divine Clones in a God Plane and seek help if endangered.
• Roy postponed forming a Soul Golden Core because the Four Divine Beast Family lacked enough top-tier fighters to face the forces of the Lord Gods.
• Gaisleith killed a Six-star Wind Hunter who had destroyed a Four Divine Beast Magic Academy and killed the Divine Clones of four family members.
• Gaisleith declared that the Four Divine Beast Family would fight for as long as necessary until no one dared provoke it again.

Roy learned that an Earth Lord Godhead had appeared on the Muba Plane and moved to secure it, but the news drew powerful Highgods into a deadly scramble. Nathaniel hid with the unusable-for-him Godhead and decided Roy might be his only protector.

• Roy delayed confronting the Lord Gods over Sovereign's Might until they understood it could not make them Paragons.
• Shelley reported that Nathaniel had seized an Earth Lord Godhead on the Muba Plane, and Roy ordered the family to intercept him.
• Other experts rushed to the Muba Plane, killed the four Four Divine Beast Family guards, and blocked the teleportation array.
• Roy publicly announced he would avenge the guards and set out for the Muba Plane, while four middle-aged men agreed to share the Godhead if one of them obtained it.
• The short man guarding the array killed a newcomer who tried to leave the Muba Plane.
• Nathaniel hid inside a Sea Magical Beast and, unable to use the Earth Lord Godhead, concluded that Roy might protect him.

Roy headed for the Muba Plane to seek justice for his family, but Blood Peak Lord God Pash tried to stop him and was defeated by Roy and Vermillion Bird Sovereign Nimo. Pash escaped by submitting to Destruction Sovereign Utred, while Roy reached Iron Saber Gorge and cleared the teleportation array.

• Roy rejected Blood Peak Lord God Pash’s invitation, shattered his projection, and continued toward the Muba Plane.
• Pash tried to pursue Roy, but Vermillion Bird Sovereign Nimo attacked him for violating the Lord God Pact and striking a Four Divine Beast Family elder.
• Pash endured Nimo’s attacks by changing his defensive Lord God Artifacts and reached the Sea of Chaos, where he submitted to Destruction Sovereign Utred.
• Utred protected Pash and forced Nimo to withdraw after his attack shattered her sword and wounded her Divine Body.
• Roy reached Iron Saber Gorge and used Almighty Push to clear the crowded Planar Teleportation Array, prompting a burly man to yield it to him.

Roy arrived in the Muba Plane and subdued the High Gods gathered there while searching for Nathaniel and the Earth Lord Godhead. Nathaniel handed over the Godhead and accepted Roy’s protection, choosing to save his promised request for after Roy became a Lord God.

• Roy shattered the attackers’ assault, trapped the fleeing High Gods in a sphere, and questioned Atley about Nathaniel and the Lord Godhead.
• Atley explained that the High Gods had fought one another without knowing what had happened, and Roy ordered him to guard the Planar Teleportation Array.
• Roy searched the Muba Plane with his Spiritual Sense and called on Nathaniel to surrender the item in exchange for protection and a request.
• Nathaniel stirred his Spiritual Sense from inside a Sea Magical Beast, but Roy pulled the beast from the sea and exposed him.
• Nathaniel gave Roy the Earth Lord Godhead, and Roy promised to protect him and let him make a request after Roy became a Lord God.

Roy defeated Hulley’s Earth God Clone and exiled him into Spatial Turbulence while escorting Nathaniel toward the Muba Plane’s teleportation array. Hulley returned with a Lord God Projection and demanded Roy show respect, but Roy mocked him before the people of the plane.

• Roy shattered Hulley’s attack with Void Tremor and exiled his Earth God Clone into Spatial Turbulence.
• Roy continued toward the teleportation array with Nathaniel as High-level Gods on the Muba Plane watched them pass.
• Hulley sent his Earth God Clone back into the Muba Plane and descended as a Lord God Projection, prompting the plane’s inhabitants and Nathaniel to kneel.
• Roy greeted the projection, then taunted Hulley for returning after being exiled and running to his parents.

Roy trapped Hulley's Earth God Clone inside his Kingdom in the Palm, beat him, and sealed the miniature plane within the Muba Plane, leaving Hulley imprisoned. Roy then took Nathaniel and Atley through the planar teleportation array.

• Hulley's Projection Clone and Earth God Clone attacked Roy, who enclosed himself and Hulley's Earth God Clone inside the Kingdom in the Palm.

After Hulley retreated from the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, stories of Roy sealing Hulley's Earth God Clone spread across the Divine Planes, changing how Gods treated Sovereign Divine Clones.

• Lightning Sovereign Hulley raged over Roy sealing his Earth God Clone and flew toward the Hell Plane.
• Roy returned from the Muba Plane and learned that the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods had stayed nearby to protect him; they planned to capture the Earth Sovereign's High Lord Godhead for him so they could later confront Light Sovereign August.
• The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods told Roy to keep the Earth Lord Godhead as protection, and Roy reported that he had imprisoned Hulley's Earth God Clone in the Muba Plane.
• The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods confronted Hulley in the Spatial Turbulence, but he fled toward the Lightning God Plane rather than face them.
• Stories of Roy defeating and sealing Hulley's Earth God Clone spread among the Gods, prompting many Sovereigns to keep their Divine Clones from traveling publicly in the name of a Sovereign.
• The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods returned with Roy to the Sky Sacrifice Mountain Range and prepared to take turns watching for the Earth Sovereign, while Sovereigns increasingly focused their attention on the Four Divine Beast Family.

Roy cultivated in seclusion while the War of Faith spread across the Material Planes, and the Four Divine Beast Family faced growing attacks. In the Audu Plane, the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy was nearing defeat in its ten-year war against the Lord God Magic Academy.

• Roy continued cultivating in the Sky Sacrifice Mountain Range as Shelley, Atley, and Nathaniel managed the Four Divine Beast Family’s records and personnel.
• The Lord God Magic Academy’s forces attacked the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy in the Audu Plane, using Hexionei Empire soldiers to exhaust its mages.
• The chapter recounted how the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy had arrived in Hexionei centuries earlier, followed later by the Lord God Magic Academy and its campaign to label its rival mages heretics.
• After years of fighting, the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy had been driven back to its own grounds, and its four deans met to discuss the worsening siege.

The Four Divine Beast Magic Academy’s deans decided to send Langfero to Hell for help as their enemies threatened to destroy the academy. Meanwhile, Roy completed his ten-thousandfold Soul Power breakthrough in the Star Mist Sea, condensed it into a Soul Golden Core within his God Spark, and awakened with Sovereign-level Willpower.

• Winnie and the other deans agreed that Langfero should travel to Hell to seek help from the Four Divine Beast Family while the other three stayed to defend the academy.
• Langfero left the Four Divine Beast Magic Academy during the Hexionei Empire’s next attack and flew toward the Audu Plane’s Planar Teleportation Array.
• Roy reached 9,999 times Soul Power after nearly a hundred million years of cultivation, then went to the Star Mist Sea to complete his breakthrough.
• Roy’s Soul Power reached ten thousand times and threatened to shatter his Sea of Soul, so he controlled it and poured it into his God Spark to form a Soul Golden Core.
• Roy awakened, swept away the Star Mist Sea’s fog with a wave, and discovered that his Spiritual Sense covered all seven continents of Hell.

Roy absorbed Earth Lord God power, became the new Star Sovereign Yi, and claimed the Star Mist Sea as his territory. He returned to his palace to examine his new Sovereign power and Soul Golden Core, while Shelley remained at Netherworld Mountain serving Lilia.

• Roy formed a Floating Castle above the Star Mist Sea, announced himself as Star Sovereign Yi, claimed the region, and declared that he would establish the Star Legion in ten thousand years.

• Roy returned to his palace, considered the cost of using Sovereign's Might, and discovered that his God Spark had become a Soul Golden Core.

Roy discovered that his altered divine spark could absorb only a limited amount of Lord God power, then ordered the Four Divine Beast Family to stop expanding and focus on defending its existing planes. Meanwhile, Bright Sovereign August and the Water Sovereign ambushed the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, and Roy rushed toward the battle as they struggled to reunite.

• Roy tested his Soul Power in the Elemental Ocean, absorbed Lord God power for a thousand years, and resolved to avoid exhausting his limited reserves in battle.

• Roy told Shelley that the dead could be reborn as Undead Creatures and ordered the Four Divine Beast Family to halt its expansion and send aid to threatened planes.
• The Death Sovereign entered the Spatial Turbulence and witnessed Bright Sovereign August and the Water Sovereign fighting the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods.
• Bright Sovereign August and the Water Sovereign kept the Four brothers separated to prevent them from using their Fusion Innate Divine Ability, until Roy approached the battle as a streak of yellow light.

Roy joined the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods' battle against Augusta and used his Earth abilities to disrupt the Light Sovereign. After testing his strength, Roy found he could withstand Augusta for a time, but he remained far weaker than a Sovereign.

• Roy used Universal Attraction to pull Leding Lord God and Nimo Lord God away from Augusta, but Augusta severed the force and nearly cut Leding in two.
• Death Sovereign Lilia arrived to watch, and Augusta kept his attacks within a Law Sovereign's usual strength as more Lord Gods gathered to observe.

• The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods left the Sovereign Spark unclaimed and flew toward Roy, prioritizing his safety over the spoils.
• Trapped by Roy's move and facing the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, Augusta decided to reveal his true strength.

Roy trapped Augusta in his Palm Universe and nearly destroyed him, but Destiny Sovereign Off intervened and negotiated Augusta’s release in exchange for settling all favors between them. After the Lord Gods elevated Roy’s status, Roy and the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods searched for the Water Lord Godhead but could not find it.

• Off shattered Roy’s Palm Universe and pulled Augusta out; Augusta accepted that their favors were settled and left for the Light God Plane.
