Turning Hostile

"I've made myself very clear! I don't have what you want!" Lynn impatiently looked at Makram, who was blocking his path.

Makram did not move an inch. He stared at Lynn grimly. "You. Remove the binding from your Spatial Ring and let me inspect it!"

Hearing this, Lynn raised his head and glanced at Makram. Lightning flickered faintly in his eyes, as though it would burst forth the next instant and reduce the man before him to ashes.

But in the end, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and gave a slight nod. "Fine. If you want to see it, then take a look!"

The Spatial Ring slipped from his finger. After he removed its binding, it flew over to Makram.

Makram did not even glance at Lynn. He immediately bound the Spatial Ring to himself. After carefully inspecting the items within, he removed the binding from it, and the ring returned to Lynn's hand.

"I can leave now, right?" Lynn's expression was grim.

"No!" Even after checking Lynn's Spatial Ring, Makram had no intention of letting him go. "Just because it isn't in your Spatial Ring doesn't mean the Fallen Realm Token isn't on you. Perhaps you secretly hid it somewhere else!"

"Idiot! I can't be bothered with you!" Lynn had lost all interest in continuing this conversation. With a cold shout, he strode straight toward Makram. Since Makram was blocking the road, he would simply knock him aside. So what if they were members of the Four Divine Beast Families? Did they dare defy the Main God's order and make a move within the city?

Besides, even if they did fight, he was not afraid!

His soul was a thousand times stronger than that of an ordinary Highgod, and he had fused two profound mysteries. Together, that gave him strength equivalent to fivefold fusion. In terms of Soul Attacks, he was enough to rival a Commander. (Soul Attacks had nothing to do with divine power; they depended solely on Soul Power.)

As for soul defense, his Soul Space was protected by the innate Black Light of his God Devouring Rat bloodline, making it even stronger than a Commander's.

As for Material Attacks, after Devouring so many divine sparks to strengthen his body, he was roughly at the level of a Five-star Demon or Six-star Demon!

As for Material Defense, his body was no weaker than a High-level Divine Artifact. With his Divine Artifact and profound mystery protection, he was absolutely at the level of a Seven-star Demon.

Would he fear the Seven-star Demons of the Four Divine Beast Families?

So what if they had Sovereign's Might?

If they fought within the city, it would only take moments to draw the intervention of the Muya Legion and the City Lord, the Floating Light Demon!

Makram watched the figure striding directly toward him with a grim gaze. His body flickered, and a figure dressed in a black robe, identical to him in appearance, appeared at his side.

The black-robed Makram looked at Lynn. "Release your soul defense and let me use Soul Maze on you. If there's no problem, you can leave!"

"Heh! Soul Maze!" Lynn was so furious that he laughed. He was truly angry now. The other party actually wanted to use Soul Maze on him!

Under normal circumstances, a god's memories could not be examined.

But someone subjected to Soul Maze was no different from someone under soul control. Once affected by Soul Maze, they would have no ability to resist, and the other party could easily inspect their memories.

His memories contained the secret of his transmigration, the Paragon laws of lightning and fire, information about the Dark Sovereign Spark, and the existence of the Lottery Wheel... How could he possibly allow someone to use Soul Maze on him and inspect his memories?

Moreover, even without those secrets, the soul was the most fundamental thing to a god. Releasing one's soul defense was equivalent to placing one's life and death in another's hands. No god could be that foolish!

"Get lost!" Lynn roared, directly shoving aside Makram's two Divine Clones and walking past them!

If fighting had been allowed within the city, Lynn would have shown him what a Hundredfold Great Perfection Soul was!

Makram stared at Lynn's retreating figure, his eyes full of gloom. "Very well. You dare disregard the prestige of my Four Divine Beast Families!"

In the end, he did not dare make a move within the city. Though he was confident he could kill the other party outright, defying the Main God's order was not something he dared do. Even though he was a Seven-star Demon of the Four Divine Beast Families, and even though the four ancestors of the Four Divine Beast Families were Main Gods, he still did not dare!

Of course, not daring to act within the city did not mean he had given up. "If I can enter that place and gain something, perhaps I can obtain the strength of a Commander. The Fallen Realm Token—I must have it!"

"I should've known better than to use that divine sword!" After returning to the small courtyard he had rented, Lynn felt rather depressed as well. He knew that with the Four Divine Beast Families' arrogance, tyranny, and utter lack of reason, they would never let the matter rest. They would very likely keep coming to trouble him.

Though he was not afraid, anyone would be annoyed by a swarm of flies clinging to them every day!

Damn it, sooner or later, I'll slaughter every last one of you! Lynn thought hatefully.

But he soon cast aside the disgusting encounter and resumed comprehending the laws.

"Use whatever underhanded tricks you want. I'm not leaving the city anyway!"

A day of fighting and slaughter in the fighting arena, along with watching the battles of other gods, had also given Lynn faint insights into the laws. Over the next dozen or so days, Lynn remained in the small courtyard in seclusion, digesting those insights.

"When thunder strikes, one generally sees the flash of lightning first, then hears the thunder a moment later!"

"That flash is the characteristic of the Flicker profound mystery, while thunder is the characteristic of the Power of Judgment profound mystery. Majestic thunder destroys all evil!"

"They seem completely different, but the middle school physics textbooks from my previous life explained it very clearly. It is merely caused by the different speeds at which sound waves and light waves travel!"

"In truth, they are one and the same. Naturally, they can be fused!"

When Lynn opened his eyes, a smile could not help appearing on his face. "I've finally figured out the fusion of the Flicker and Power of Judgment profound mysteries. Even before this, Flicker and the Lightning Element had already begun to fuse."

"That means the three profound mysteries of the Lightning Element, Flicker, and Power of Judgment can begin fusing!"

Once the three profound mysteries fused successfully, Lynn's strength would rise another tenfold. His strongest Soul Attack would be ten times stronger than that of a Commander with fivefold fusion!

His Material Attack could also reach the level of a Six-star Demon. (Enhanced by the physical strength of a God Devouring Rat.)

Lynn felt a faint sense of anticipation. With such an overbearing Soul Attack, could I kill a Seven-star Demon in a single blow?

"As expected, battle is the fastest way to cultivate. If not for fighting other gods and drawing connections from them, when would I ever have comprehended the fusion of three profound mysteries?" Lynn left the small courtyard and headed toward the fighting arena.

As for the threat from the Four Divine Beast Families, he did not take it to heart at all.

As long as his strength continued to grow, those threats would become smaller and smaller!

Once he became a Main God, none of this would be a problem!

If he became timid and hesitant, unable to move forward because he feared threats, that would be truly idiotic!
