White Tiger Clan

After showing his identity plaque, Lynn entered the arena through the contestants' passage beneath the fighting grounds.

He casually found a seat and began watching the other Highgods battle.

The moment Lynn appeared, a peripheral member of the Four Divine Beast Families in the audience lit up. His avatar outside swiftly reported the news to Makram. "My lord, he has appeared in the arena!"

"Hmph! You brought this upon yourself!" Upon hearing that Lynn had appeared in the arena, Makram snorted coldly. He then took another deity from his residence and rushed toward the arena.

As they flew, he instructed the deity, "I've watched Lynn's battle recordings. His true strength should be that of a Five-star Demon, but there's something unusual about his soul. He may belong to a special race and likely possesses an Innate Divine Ability!"

"Alex, you're a Six-star Demon and a member of the White Tiger Clan. You possess an Innate Divine Ability, so dealing with him won't be a problem!"

At this point, Makram's expression turned solemn. "Enter the arena later. Once you defeat him, force him to reveal the location of the Fallen Realm Token. After you complete the task, I'll reward you with a drop of Sovereign's Might!"

"Don't worry, Lord Makram!" The middle-aged man with a hooked nose flying behind Makram smiled faintly. "I've killed more than one Five-star Demon. I'll definitely obtain the Fallen Realm Token for you!"

"However, my lord..." The hooked-nosed middle-aged man hesitated. "If he refuses to hand over the Fallen Realm Token or reveal its whereabouts, how should I deal with him?"

A vicious gleam flashed through Makram's eyes. "Kill him outright! The dignity of the Four Divine Beast Families cannot be offended!"

"Fine!"

"Lynn!"

"Lynn!"

As Lynn entered the arena, earth-shaking cheers erupted at once. Before this, he had already won six consecutive matches, and everyone recognized that he possessed the strength of a Five-star Demon!

Five-star Demons were already considered powerful figures in the arena. With enough luck, they might even have a slim chance of achieving a Hundred Battle Victor!

Lynn's opponent was a young man with curly green hair. He shook his head with a bitter smile. "Lord Lynn, I'm no match for you!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. Show me all your strength!" Lynn smiled at him. "Opportunities to fight someone stronger than yourself are rare!"

Lynn had participated in six battles in the arena, but the only person who had truly died at his hands was that Effeminate Youth.

Hearing Lynn's words, the curly-haired youth nodded as though he had made up his mind. "Very well, Lord Lynn. Excuse me."

As soon as he spoke, a massive scythe appeared in his hand and slashed fiercely toward Lynn. He was actually a Highgod who cultivated the Rules of Death.

Lynn's eyes lit up as well. The Rules of Death were the best at dealing with souls.

A moment later, the curly-haired youth knelt on the ground. Threads of electric current flowed around him, numbing half his body.

The arena host's voice sounded at just the right moment. "Lynn, seven victories!"

Just then, Makram and Alex entered the arena. Hearing the host's announcement, Makram revealed a mocking smile. "Very good. Seven victories already!"

He turned to Alex. "I've made arrangements with the arena. Go get ready. You're up next!"

He could not even be bothered to personally deal with a mere Five-star Demon!

In a corner where the two failed to notice him, a plain-looking young man with long black hair shrank back slightly upon seeing them enter.

Seeing Makram's aloof figure, the black-haired young man could not help but smile bitterly. He usually looks down on me, this bastard child, yet when death is at hand, he doesn't trust his own son and instead dumps this hot potato on me!

Old man, my sister and I have been thoroughly screwed over by you! If the Four Divine Beast Families discover that the Fallen Realm Token is in my hands, I'm finished!

He even wants me to take the Fallen Realm Token and compete for treasure to revive the Talin Family? I'm not going!

"The Rules of Death really are strange." As Lynn returned to the resting room through the passageway, he reflected on the battle just now.

The Four Supreme Rules and Seven Element Laws were fundamentally neither superior nor inferior to one another. However, each had its own specialties. Experts who cultivated the Rules of Death were undoubtedly the best at studying souls.

Soul Golden Beads, Godslayer Arrows... treasures and weapons related to souls like these were all created by them.

Although the curly-haired youth was merely an ordinary Highgod, his methods of Soul Attack still left Lynn clicking his tongue in amazement.

After resting below the stage and watching several matches, it was soon Lynn's turn again.

As he entered the arena, the host's voice rang out.

"Lynn has entered the arena!"

"Next, let us welcome the next challenger!"

"Oh! What do I see!"

"Everyone! Everyone! I now have surprising news for you! Lynn's next opponent is... the pride of our Floating Light City, a man who once achieved a Hundred Battle Victor in this arena... Mister Alex!"

The millions of deities watching erupted into frenzied roars, shouting one after another, "Lynn, defeat Alex!"

"Alex!"

"Lynn!"

With a former Hundred Battle Victor taking the field, the entire fighting arena boiled over under the host's prompting.

Lynn looked impassively at the hooked-nosed middle-aged man slowly emerging from the passage below. Yet questions and guesses continued to arise in his mind.

However, the hooked-nosed middle-aged man's introduction completely dispelled his doubts. Looking at Lynn, he said arrogantly, "I am Alex, a Six-star Demon and a member of the White Tiger branch of the Four Divine Beast Families!"

He glanced at Lynn. "I advise you to hand over the Fallen Realm Token now, before I have to make a move!"

Lynn shook his head. The Four Divine Beast Families truly were just as he had guessed—like flies, impossible to get rid of!

He could not be bothered to explain himself to these brainless villains any further. "Make your move!"

Boom!

A green sand sea instantly engulfed the entire fighting platform, Lynn included. A terrifying force of restraint descended upon him at once.

His body, soul, and Spiritual Sense were all restrained!

The green sand sea bound Lynn, yet Alex moved through it like a fish in water!

Wind Element Law—Wind Space!

After undergoing the Ancestral Temple Baptism upon reaching adulthood, members of the White Tiger Clan became wind-type divine beasts and achieved godhood through the Wind Element Law!

This move, Green Gravel Sand Sea, was Alex's ultimate technique, created by using Wind Space as its foundation and merging three profound mysteries!

Hovering in the air, he looked down at Lynn, who was restrained within the green sand sea. A smug glint flashed through his eyes. "If you hand over the Fallen Realm Token now, it's not too late!"
