As the date of the human Supreme Council drew nearer, more and more Saint Domain experts gathered in the Royal Capital of the Magat Kingdom.

After arriving in the Royal Capital, quite a few Saint Domain experts came to visit Rielmons. To their disappointment, however, Rielmons was still undergoing soul mutation and had yet to awaken.

Meanwhile, Prinus had already finished forging Lynn's weapon.

"Lynn, this is the weapon I forged for you. See if you're satisfied with it!" Prinus smiled as he took a long staff from his Spatial Ring and handed it to Lynn. "To match your Sky Black Copper, I added quite a few precious materials as well!"

Lynn's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the long staff in Prinus's hand.

It was a staff over two meters long and four fingers thick. From end to end, it gleamed with a layer of azure light, looking both ancient and magnificent.

"Be careful. With your Sky Black Copper as the main material and all the precious materials I added, this staff weighs more than thirty thousand jin!" Prinus reminded him.

"Mm!" Lynn nodded and accepted the staff with both hands.

The physical strength of Saint Domain Warriors exceeded ten million jin. As a Saint Domain magical beast, his physical strength was far greater than that of an ordinary Saint Domain Warrior. A mere thirty thousand jin was no different from an embroidery needle to him.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Lynn swung the staff a few times to get a feel for it, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face. "I'm very satisfied with this staff. Prinus, I've troubled you this time!"

"Haha! As long as you're satisfied!" Prinus laughed heartily. "Having materials like Sky Black Copper to practice with is a rare opportunity for me too. I ought to be thanking you!"

After seeing Prinus off, Lynn returned to the courtyard with the staff in one hand. Having reached the realm of Heaven and Earth Momentum, his control over strength was exceedingly precise. He would not leave a hole in the ground with every step simply because of the staff's weight.

Lynn looked at the staff in his hand. With the physical strength of his magical beast body, one blow from this staff could probably smash even a mountain into fragments.

God Devouring Rats could only extract essence from the godheads they Devoured to forge Godhead Weapons after reaching the Highgod level. He would likely be using this staff for a very long time.

"You were forged with Sky Black Copper as your foundation, and your entire body shines with azure light. I'll call you 'Sky Radiance'!"

The long staff, Sky Radiance!

The Supreme Council convened as scheduled. Unfortunately, Rielmons was still surrounded by the Destruction Rule and Flame Element, and had not awakened.

The meeting was held in a palace not far from the royal palace.

Lynn followed behind Teacher Desman as they slowly entered the palace, only to find a banquet being held inside. Nearly a hundred Saint Domain experts in different attire stood around in groups of two or three, wine cups in hand as they chatted.

"So there are this many human Saint Domain experts?" Lynn could not help feeling curious at the sight.

However, after Desman's explanation, Lynn quickly understood.

Although it was difficult for humans to reach the Saint Domain, Saint Domain experts had limitless lifespans. The number of human Saint Domain experts was the result of accumulation over countless years.

In fact, there had once been far more human Saint Domain experts than there were now.

However, after humans became vassals of the Beastmen, a large portion of the Saint Domain experts could not endure the humiliation and chose to leave the Orlando Plane to seek their fortunes in the Supreme Planes.

There was also another group of Saint Domain experts who remained on the Orlando Plane but paid no attention to the affairs of humanity. They focused solely on cultivation, hoping to step into the Divine Domain, and they would not attend the meeting either.

Once most of the attendees had arrived, the meeting finally began.

The host was the Wind Saint Magus Timonsen, a gaunt old man dressed in an azure robe who looked utterly ordinary.

Of course, no one would truly regard a Saint Magus as an ordinary person, especially not a Wind Saint Magus famed for his terrifying Material Attacks.

The meeting began quickly and ended just as quickly. After discussing a few routine matters, Timonsen announced the end of the meeting.

The Beast God was a deity. His Spiritual Sense could easily cover the entire venue, and he would know perfectly well whatever the human Saint Domain experts discussed.

Therefore, Lynn guessed that the Saint Domain Peak experts and Saint Magi would hold another private meeting afterward to discuss certain important matters.

After the meeting ended, Lynn naturally remained in the Royal Capital. While comprehending the mysteries of the Shadow Clone Technique, he also guided Scott and the other Harrington Family juniors in their cultivation as warriors.

Scott and the others had each taken a drop of Water of Life as well. However, Scott's strength was far too weak, and it would take him several years just to refine the power of the Water of Life.

The others were in much the same situation. Only Duke Harrington had already been an Eighth-level Warrior before this. After taking a drop of Water of Life, he quickly broke through to become a Ninth-level Warrior and was now advancing toward the peak of the ninth level!

Lynn sat cross-legged in the middle of the small courtyard.

Suddenly—

Whoosh!

His body flickered, and a second Lynn appeared some distance away. Then, a third Lynn appeared elsewhere.

In the blink of an eye, three Lynns had appeared in the courtyard.

Moreover, these were not phantoms, but real bodies. All three Lynns were genuine and possessed Lynn's own soul aura.

This was the Shadow Clone Technique!

Of course, Lynn's ability to create three clones meant he had only just entered the technique. Deities, on the other hand, could create hundreds of clones at once.

After using this move, Lynn could switch into any one of his clones. When others attacked him, they would find his body illusory. Yet when he attacked others, they would discover... that body was real again.

In other words, he could attack others, while others could not attack him.

"I've finally cultivated the Shadow Clone Technique to the second stage. If measured by percentage, I should be at around twenty percent now!" The three Lynns vanished at once, and finally, one Lynn slowly emerged from the shadows. A faint smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself.

His soul was simply too powerful, and his speed in deducing Laws was absurdly fast!

Ordinary magical beasts needed fifty or sixty years, perhaps even over a hundred years, to digest the mysteries within their souls. He probably would not even need one or two years.

The entry stage of the Shadow Clone Technique was to conceal oneself within shadows and move stealthily within them—transforming into a shadow. The second stage was cultivating three clones, the third stage was cultivating ten clones, and the fourth stage was becoming a god!

Lynn was full of confidence. "In about another year, I'll be able to digest the mysteries of the Shadow Clone Technique within my soul and become a god through the Dark Element Law!"

And the day Lynn became a god would be the day that Beast God fell!

Lynn closed his eyes and continued comprehending the mysteries within his soul. At the same time, he sensed the ever-present Dark Elements around him, trying to comprehend the mysteries of Soul Attacks within them!

Once he became a god, his soul would rise once more, enveloped by the Heaven and Earth Law!

With such a powerful soul, not learning Soul Attacks would be far too wasteful.
