Sovereign's Might

"Such powerful binding force—more than ten times stronger than the binding force in Hell!" Surprise flashed through Lynn's eyes.

Even in Hell, his Spiritual Sense could cover several thousand kilometers, yet within this strange sand sea, its range had been compressed another tenfold!

It was not just his Soul Power; even his speed had been suppressed!

Lynn did not dare be careless. A longsword appeared in his hand, and several electric serpents burst from its blade, shooting fiercely toward Alex. Even under the suppression of the Green Gravel Sand Sea, they were still terrifyingly fast, closing in on him after only several Flickers through the air.

After beginning to comprehend the fusion of three profound mysteries, Lynn had incorporated the profound mystery of Flicker into the attack of the Purple-Green Electric Serpent. Not only was its power greater, but its speed had also increased by several degrees.

"Ha!"

Several electric serpents hissed as they viciously sank their fangs toward Alex!

"Hmph! A mere Five-star Demon's Soul Attack!" He snorted coldly. A silver warblade appeared in his hand, then swept horizontally, cutting through the electric serpents like an autumn wind scattering fallen leaves.

At the same time, a faint and indistinct phantom of a White Tiger appeared over the warblade.

"Roar!" The White Tiger phantom suddenly let out a thunderous roar.

The roar carried far into the distance and seemed to contain some special profound mystery. The many Midgods watching from the fighting arena could not help but grow dazed upon hearing it.

The profound mystery of "Sound" from the Wind Element Laws!

Alex looked confidently at the electric serpents rushing toward him, but to his surprise, under the roaring attack of the White Tiger phantom, the serpents merely paused slightly before continuing their charge without stopping.

"How is that possible?" Alex's expression changed drastically. The next moment, his body instantly transformed into several hundred clones, attempting to evade the electric serpents' attack.

The profound mystery of "Clones" from the Wind Element Laws!

"That move again!" Seeing him use the clone technique, Lynn felt helpless. Both the Wind and Dark Element Laws possessed profound mysteries involving clones.

In truth, the method to break this move was simple: use a spatial profound mystery. Whether it was the lightning-element Electromagnetic Space or the fire-element Flame Space, as long as one covered the entire area containing the opponent's clones.

Once covered by an area attack, the weak clones produced by the clone technique would naturally all vanish, leaving only the true body!

But Lynn had yet to comprehend a spatial profound mystery!

"Troublesome. I can only use the Innate Divine Ability, God Devouring, to lock onto his true body!" Lynn stared at the several hundred figures of "Alex" in the distance, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

The next moment—

"Yooo~~~" A piercing shriek tore through the sky as a several-hundred-meter phantom of a God Devouring Rat appeared behind Lynn.

Innate Divine Ability—God Devouring!

In one breath, he locked onto all several hundred clones Alex had created. God Devouring locked onto divine sparks, and no matter how many clones Alex produced, he had only one divine spark.

Locked onto by God Devouring, the several hundred clones all stiffened at once before immediately recovering.

Lynn was only a Midgod. His God Devouring divine ability was ineffective against Highgods.

But in that instant of stiffness, Lynn had already found Alex's true body. Several electric serpents that had been darting about like headless flies simultaneously pounced viciously toward Alex under the command of Lynn's Soul Power, then plunged directly into his body.

"Hmph! Three fused profound mysteries and Soul Power a thousand times that of a Highgod—this attack is several times stronger than that of a Five-fused Asura!" Lynn snorted coldly. "Let's see how you withstand it!"

Since the Four Divine Beast Families were like flies that could not be driven away, he would kill them one by one and crush them to death!

"Cough, cough!" Lynn forcibly suppressed the backlash from his divine ability and spat out a mouthful of blood, but his gaze remained fixed on Alex in the distance.

Struck simultaneously by several electric-serpent Soul Attacks, Alex floated motionlessly in the air with his eyes shut. His aura rose and fell erratically, and even the Green Gravel Sand Sea binding Lynn showed faint signs of dispersing.

But just as Lynn thought Alex was about to die, suddenly—

Boom!

A terrifying aura spread from Alex's body, while his entire form became enveloped in a layer of fiery red radiance.

"You damned bastard!" Alex opened his eyes and glared at Lynn. "You made me waste a drop of Sovereign's Might. Today, I will kill you!"

Alex's heart bled. A drop of Sovereign's Might was an exorbitantly precious treasure to him. If he had not been a member of the Four Divine Beast Families, how could he have obtained a drop of Sovereign's Might while still a Six-star Demon?

Even so, he had only one drop of Sovereign's Might on him. Once used, it was gone!

"Sovereign's Might!" Seeing the red glow radiating from Alex's body, Lynn was greatly shocked as well.

If a Highgod used Sovereign's Might of the same element, it could increase their strength by several hundred times. Even if, like Alex, the Fire Lord God Power he used did not match his wind element, it could still increase his power a hundredfold!

Moreover, Sovereign's Might was the fused product of Soul Power and divine power!

In other words, Alex's strength had now increased a hundredfold, enough to rival a Commander. Furthermore, it was an all-around enhancement without weakness—body, soul, attack, defense...

"I concede!"

Lynn shouted without hesitation, but to his surprise, although he had conceded, the host did not announce the end of the battle. Alex was already staring at him with a ferocious expression.

Lynn was initially stunned, but he quickly understood. The host of this battle—or rather, the fighting arena's officials—had already been bought off by the Four Divine Beast Families.

One person was bound to die in this battle!

"You want to kill me?" Lynn's face darkened. His longsword hung low in his hand as he looked at Alex, who radiated a terrifying aura. "Then let's see who dies!"

Even with Alex using Sovereign's Might, he still could not compare to Lynn in Soul Attacks or defensive domains.

However, in Material Attacks, Alex was more than a hundred times stronger than Lynn and could break through his defenses!

I'll keep him occupied and attack him with Soul Attacks! I can't confront him head-on. I'll drag things out until his Sovereign's Might is exhausted!

Lynn swiftly came up with a plan.

His figure immediately Flickered like lightning as he flew away from Alex, while several electric serpents shot from his eyes again and tore viciously toward his opponent.

Seeing Lynn's actions, Alex smiled disdainfully. "Bind!"

As his voice fell, the Green Gravel Sand Sea, which had seemed on the verge of dispersing, suddenly increased its binding force enormously. Even with Lynn's physical strength, flying through it felt like falling into a swamp, every movement difficult!

Yet as he faced the Purple-Green Electric Serpents biting toward him, his expression turned grave. Within his sea of consciousness, the translucent phantom of a White Tiger suddenly roared in fury, and nearly tangible soundwaves surged toward the electric serpents layer after layer like cannonballs!

Those soundwaves were like steel blades scraping bone, shaving away the electric serpents' "flesh" layer by layer. By the time the Purple-Green Electric Serpents entered Alex's body, they were only finger-sized.

"What a terrifying Soul Attack!" Alex still felt lingering fear.
