The Dragon Covenant.

One of the most famous abilities in the Multiverse to overwhelm people with money!

Many people throughout history have acquired this ability, perhaps because the power to summon top-tier fighters is so incredibly satisfying, and many have gone bankrupt because of it. In fact, the most powerful force currently holding the highest [Dragon Covenant], namely Dragon City mentioned by Soren, almost never uses this ability.

The reason is simple.

Most Dragon only take in money and never give it away; they don't spend the money they earn.

The result was predictable: the more powerful the summoned Dragon, the greater the reward. Often, the summoned Dragon came from other worlds, simply leaving with the reward. Over time, the resulting financial losses were staggering. This effectively reduced the gold reserves of the Material Plane, which could only be replenished from other Plane. This argument is detailed in the Wizard Union's article, "How Much Has the Dragon Covenant Really Cost Us?"

The departure of the Loli Dragon left Soren somewhat helpless, but the Chaotic Alignment was also notorious for its capriciousness.

Sometimes, Soren would feel a little envious of them.

But it's just a matter of envy; Soren could never act as arbitrarily as they do. He's someone who's used to following his own rules.

The Psion still doesn't seem to have woken up.

The Divinity power did not immediately and completely merge with her body, or rather, this fusion required a process, and she might even have felt a slight resistance to being controlled by Soren deep down.

"The progress of Divinity fusion is very slow."

With his eyes closed, Soren could feel the Divinity he had bestowed transforming the woman before him. He could easily discern something about her: ordinary beings were almost incapable of absorbing Divinity on their own. Whether it was the Mutated Killer Whale initially Divine Gift or this woman, it seemed they all required time to fuse with Divinity. Only now did Soren realize just how astonishing his ability to fuse and devour Divinity in the blink of an eye truly was; it seemed he could fuse both Divinity and Divine Rank extremely quickly. Even those who had slain gods needed a long time to gradually fuse with it.

This could be related to Slaughter, or it could be for other reasons.

"Since he hasn't woken up yet..."

Soren gazed at the Psion before him, gently removing the veil from her face. Her pale complexion was gradually regaining its rosy hue, and the outline of her face made him pause for a moment in surprise.

It's not that the Psion in front of me is ugly; on the contrary, she is very charming.

The key wasn't her beauty. It was that her appearance reminded Soren of the Githyanki. The Psion before him clearly possessed some Githyanki features in her facial contours. The Githyanki are Astral Plane race, and their appearance differs greatly from humans. To be more specific, Githyanki have somewhat 'snake-like' faces, very pointed ears, and a prominent ridge along their spine, among other distinctive features. Therefore, Soren only needed to remove her veil to glance at her and be able to determine that she had Githyanki ancestry.

"Huh?"

Soren's expression suddenly turned serious. He reached out and removed the woman's robe, examining the area below her collarbone.

There was a dark blue, snake-like symbol there.

Soren reached out and felt across the woman's chest, then traced his fingers up her spine from above Psion hips. He could clearly feel that her vertebrae protruded about half a centimeter more than normal. This indicated that she was a hybrid of human and Githyanki, with human blood making up the majority and Githyanki blood only a small portion. Astral Plane species are Pillage, and they might capture humans as Slave. Therefore, the possibility of Half-breed being present for some reason cannot be ruled out.

at last.

Soren lifted the sleeve of her dress, revealing three dark blue letter marks on her fair wrist.

--"mss!"

The branding marks were very faint, or rather, faded due to the spread of the skin. This indicated that the branding was left very early, most likely during her childhood, and then gradually faded as she grew. Soren slowly pulled down his sleeve, his expression complex as he gazed at the Psion before him. He murmured, "Slave?"

The mark of Slave.

Soren found it hard to believe that such a powerful Psion had once been a lowly Slave.

For her, erasing such marks would be a matter of a blink of an eye, yet she chose to leave the brand of Slave on her body, which likely has a Legendary story behind it. Soren had little affection for the Githyanki; this race had been Mind Flayer Empire for a long time, but even after breaking free, they didn't become much better, instead becoming the most dangerous Pillage and bandits in the Astral Plane. The Githyanki captured other races as Slave, maintaining their brutal rule through militarized management.

It seems that any race that has been controlled by Mind Flayer will eventually be ruined by them.

And most of them have developed Psionics.

The Githyanki are like that, and so are the Duergar.

"Well."

Soren raised his hand and gently stroked the Psion's long hair, but suddenly he seemed to touch something, and his whole body froze on the spot.

Wound.

A wound on the brain.

Although it was very subtle, Soren could feel it through his hair.

"Mind Flayer?!"

Soren's expression immediately turned to astonishment, his face seemingly filled with disbelief. He muttered, "Could it be that she wasn't once Slave of the Githyanki?! The one who controlled her and left the Slave mark was Mind Flayer?!"

Such a wound.

In Soren's knowledge, only one type of monster could leave behind such a gruesome wound, even after it has healed: the Mind Flayer.

Because they suck the brains of other creatures!

She was attacked by Mind Flayer.

Soren reached out and touched the other side of the Psion's cheek, finding a second, identical wound. Soren was now almost certain that the Mind Flayer had done it, but he found it hard to believe that a Slave had been controlled and attacked by the Mind Flayer hadn't become an idiot or a lunatic, but instead had become a Legendary Psion of level thirty or higher.

This is absolutely astonishing!

The woman before me likely possesses a Legendary story that rivals even that of Soren.

"Call!"

Soren's gaze was complex, tinged with a hint of pity.

He rarely felt sympathy for others. However, the woman before him actually evoked a sense of sympathy in him, tinged with a hint of respect. He knew that years ago, Adventurer had challenged the Mind Flayer's lair, only to be Mind Flayer after a defeat. At that time, they preferred collective suicide to having their brains Mind Flayer.

Legendary Domain allows one to survive in that environment and reach the pinnacle.

Such a woman deserves Soren's respect!

Let's leave here first.

Soren seemed to sense some kind of energy fluctuation; his ability to sense energy had been greatly enhanced after advancing to the Demigod realm. So, after a moment's thought, he decided to take the Psion away from here first. Soren reached out and helped her put her robe back on, then fastened the buttons at her chest. Immediately afterward, he scooped up the Psion's delicate body and transformed into a blur as he headed towards the passage leading out of the Underdark.

I've obtained the Elemental Crystal [Legendary Tier 3].

I also obtained the Divine Rank Shard.

Soren felt he didn't need to stay there for the time being; the risks and rewards were completely disproportionate.

Unknown lands, Demiplane.

The space here is trembling slightly. The edges of the Demiplane show signs of collapse, like the domain of Void storm. The land that makes up the Demiplane is gradually crumbling and falling, and Rage energy is destroying the structure of this Demiplane world. Outside the Demiplane is a deep darkness, as if a terrifying force has crossed space and locked this place in place.

A small world. A big world.

The collision of energies caused cracks to appear in space, and finally a rift suddenly opened in the sky of the Demiplane, and then the figure of the Spider Queen slowly appeared.

"So it was the Clockwork Nirvana Demiplane!"

The Spider Queen surveyed the world before her, eight twisted and grotesque spider legs adorning her back, resembling wings when spread. Her expression held a mixture of amusement and surprise. She then sneered, "I thought all Demiplane like this had vanished. I didn't expect one would still be hidden!"

Demiplane.

One of the signature features of Arcanist.

Everyone knows that the Floating City has incredibly powerful combat capabilities, but many people don't know that another important structure of the Floating City is the Demiplane.

The Demiplane and the Floating City are one!

The Archmage created their own Floating City, and then, based on those Floating City, expanded into their own Demiplane.

Otherwise, they would have no right to challenge the high and mighty Gods!

"Let me end all of this!"

The Spider Queen laughed wildly and raised her hand to slash at the sky. Immediately afterward, a dark crack appeared in the sky of the Demiplane, and a large number of monsters emerged from the sky, rushing towards the Demiplane like a raging torrent.

Drider, Demon Spider, Chuvak, Corrupted Drow, Abyssal Petitioner...

Monsters emerged in droves from the dark rifts, unleashing a merciless Slaughter the moment they appeared, surging madly toward the Arcane Tower at the end of the Demiplane.

The servant of the Spider Queen.

A terrifying monster from the God's Realm [the Demon Abyss Hell]!

When the realm of the Deity locked onto this Demiplane, a teleportation channel spanning Plane space was also constructed by powerful Divine Power.

This is not Material Plane.

The boundaries of the Material Plane cannot affect this place; Deity can directly open Portal connecting to their God's Realm in outer space.

This was no ordinary battle.

When the teleportation channel connecting to the Abyss God's Realm [Demon Abyss Hell] opened, it had already transformed into a [God War]!
