Coming Clean

Inside the Metal Castle in the Dark Forest, Fengyun Yun, having quickly recovered his body with the Sovereign’s Might, asked after a moment of meditation, "Senior Beirut, should I now address you Overgod?"

Beirut smiled slightly and said, "You've figured it out!"

Shrugging, Fengyun Yun smiled and said, "I wasn't sure at first. After all, I couldn't sense your presence when I used my Spiritual Power to search the continent. It's not impossible that it's because your soul power is just that strong!"

"Moreover, each of you, senior, is a unique Super Divine Beast. Although I have a very deep understanding of your bloodline, I am not sure if you have hidden some advantages or characteristics of your own soul."

"When Beibei and I were traveling through Hell, we discovered that he had an unusually high resistance to soul attacks and could easily ignore all kinds of powerful soul attacks!"

"At that time, I thought that your God-Devouring Rat clan must have a level of attainment and foundation in the soul that far surpasses that of ordinary living beings!"

"But after being defeated by you in one move, I'm certain that you are Overgod!"

"Beibei's indifference to soul attacks is not because of high resistance, but because he has Sovereign Artifact for soul defense!"

At this point, he sighed and said, "Alas, if I had known you were Overgod, why would I have bothered with the challenge!"

Beirut shook his head, making a tiny gesture with his index finger and thumb, and said, "Don't think that the Overgod is invincible. If you were even a tiny bit stronger, I wouldn't dare say I could crush you like I do now!"

Fengyun: "..., -_-||"

Hehe~

After giving a speechless look, he asked again, "Um, Senior Beirut, could it be that Brother Bluefire...?"

Beirut, no longer joking about the Fengyun, nodded and said, "That's right, Bluefire is also Overgod!"

"Moreover, in terms of strength alone, he is stronger than me, because he is Low Sovereign at the Paragon level!"

Seeing Fengyun sigh again, Beirut didn't try to discourage him further. Instead, he suddenly became serious and said, "What are you sighing about, kid?"

"Do you think you'll never have a chance to surpass me and Bluefire in this lifetime?"

Seeing that Fengyun had become interested, Beirut continued, "Did you think I was just joking when I said you were a tiny bit stronger?"

"Sigh~, it's true!"

"If you were just a tiny bit stronger, you would truly be qualified to fight me!"

"As Super Divine Beast, and one who can use Godhead Essence to strengthen my physique, I am a top-tier existence even among Low Sovereign!"

"Even Low Sovereign at the Paragon level is only slightly stronger than me."

"If you are qualified to fight me, it means that ordinary Overgod will no longer be your match!"

"With the power of a god, you possess combat strength that threatens the level of Overgod. What is there for you to lament and sigh about?"

"I was shocked by your performance. I'm the one who should be sighing and lamenting, you know?"

Beirut wasn't just making things up. According to his original estimate, even if Fengyun Mysteries of the Laws light and darkness, he still wouldn't be able to reach the level of Low Sovereign.

After all, the Sovereign Spark Overgod's strength relies on the terrifying and vast Willpower.

The power boost from the Willpower within the Sovereign Spark is far greater than that from the fusion of the Mysteries of the Laws, at least not from the fusion of the mysteries of two laws!

"There are 77 Sovereign Spark in this world, and each Sovereign Spark contains a vast and terrifying Willpower!"

"These Willpower, in a sense, represent the authority of heaven and earth. Even if the other avatars of the Overgod are only slightly tainted by less than one ten-thousandth of the Willpower, they still possess about eighty percent of the Willpower of an ordinary Paragon cultivator."

"And a bit of Willpower can increase strength by about 10 times!"

"Now that I've explained it this way, you probably understand the terrifying gap between the Overgod and the Paragon!"

Fengyun asked with difficulty, "Senior, are you saying that the strength of a normal Overgod is 10 to the power of 8000 times that of an ordinary Paragon?"

"8000th power, what does that mean?" Beirut was taken aback when he heard this, but after roughly understanding what Fengyun meant, he shook his head and said, "No, it's not that exaggerated!"

"Although it can be calculated that way, the Willpower that can be mobilized by the Overgod within the Sovereign Spark is actually limited."

"The reason I said before that if you were a billion times stronger, you would be qualified to fight me is because I felt that if you fused all the profound Mysteries of the Laws light and darkness, and then achieved the two Willpower represented by the Paragon of the dual attributes of light and darkness, it would really be possible to reach the level of an ordinary Low Sovereign."

"Sigh~, the Willpower, apart from those who achieve Paragon and the Overgod can obtain it, is only awarded by the Overgod of the Fate System through the interdimensional wars, who were given an extra share by the laws of heaven and earth!"

"There is no other way to obtain it!"

"Two portions of Willpower can bridge the gap of one level for Overgod."

"After all, the power difference between Overgod of different levels within the same system is only about a hundred times."

After a brief exchange, Fengyun confirmed two things.

Firstly, according to Beirut's assessment, once he has fully integrated all the Light-Dark Laws, he should be able to directly obtain strength comparable to that of Overgod.

Secondly, his challenge and sparring directly exposed Beirut's true abilities to the Overgod, but judging from Beirut's attitude, the other party didn't seem to intend to hide it from him. Especially after learning that he had already fused the profound mysteries of six Light-Dark Laws, he seemed to be in a state of excitement.

Just as Fengyun was still pondering what was going on with Beirut's excited state, Beirut suddenly took out three orbs of soul essence radiating black and white light and gave them to him!

Fengyun asked in confusion, "Senior Beirut, what is this...?"

Beirut smiled and said, "Soul Fragment containing the laws of nature!"

"I specifically asked a friend to help me make it!"

Although based on his research on bloodlines and souls, Fengyun had roughly guessed that the soul items with the aura of laws that Beirut had taken out were likely the Soul Fragment that he had asked Dunnington to make for Beibei in the original work.

But it wasn't until Beirut himself admitted it that he was certain of his suspicions: Beirut must have been eyeing him all along.

After all, Soul Fragment aren't something you can just make on a whim. Even Dunnington, a master of the Death Paragon, would have to spend a considerable amount of time creating one.

Beirut could not have simply taken it out without prior preparation.

Seeing Fengyun's strange expression, Beirut said directly, "Don't be surprised or hesitate, just absorb it all quickly!"
