Reverend Insanity: I Became an Overgod Before the System Activated Author: Cong Shuo

Synopsis:

He had transmigrated to the Reverend Insanity world during the Beginning of Heaven and Earth and, by a fortunate coincidence, became the Dark Overlord...

More than a thousand eons later, the system suddenly activated...

Within the Magic Universe, there were nearly as many Material Planes as grains of sand in the Ganges.

Among these countless planes existed almost every conceivable form. One such plane consisted entirely of innumerable small islands floating upon the ocean.

Countless years ago, a deity had appeared and used immense power to gather the islands together, eventually forming three enormous continents. As the years passed, two of those continents sank to the ocean floor.

The remaining continent came to be known as...

Qingya Continent!

After countless trillions of years, the sunken continents had long faded from public knowledge. Only fragments of them remained in a few exceptionally ancient legends and texts. Occasionally, sailors who ventured out to sea might spot some unusual remnants...

Yet no one paid much attention to them.

After all, countless lives lived on Qingya Continent, and it was the only continent they knew. Events of the past were regarded as little more than legends.

At some point, this plane also came to be called the Qingya Plane.

Qingya Continent had numerous races and an enormous population, so naturally it possessed countless powerful experts. Even during periods when humans did not hold dominion, there were still more empires and kingdoms than could be counted.

Whenever a Saint Domain expert or a god level expert was born, a powerful faction or territory would emerge.

After countless years of accumulation and friction between the various races, a terrifying war finally erupted. God level experts no longer obeyed the continent's treaties and directly entered the conflict.

For a time, living beings suffered devastation, and heaven and earth collapsed!

Terrifying energy poured forth without restraint. Qingya Continent could no longer endure it and shattered with a thunderous crash beneath that dreadful power, splitting into five continents...

After the continent split apart, the Qingya Plane temporarily entered a "stable period." The Plane Guardian personally intervened and imprisoned all lives that disrupted the plane's peace within the Plane Prison. Anyone who had participated in the battle was taken away, whether they were Middle Gods or powerful High Gods. Even High Gods who had fused profound mysteries were no exception. No one could escape the Plane Guardian's capture...

It was not just God level experts. Many Saint Domain lives caught up in the conflict were imprisoned as well.

After the Plane Guardian took action, the powerful experts of the Qingya Plane were nearly wiped out. Very few God level and Saint Domain experts remained. Afraid of being implicated, those experts soon headed for the Divine Planes one after another...

Two hundred million years had passed since the Plane Guardian quelled the great war on Qingya Continent and imprisoned countless experts.

The former Qingya Continent had long become a new legend.

Mudu Continent was one of the continents formed after Qingya Continent split apart. It was the largest of the five and had once been the core region of Qingya Continent.

The other four continents surrounded Mudu Continent in a ring: Slit Continent to the northwest, Beast Plains Continent to the south, Elf Continent to the southeast, and, near Slit Continent to the almost due north...

Yulan Continent!

Mudu Continent was ruled by magical beasts. It was also the strongest of the five continents, and its strongest experts even possessed the power of Middle Gods.

Even so, Mudu Continent was not inhabited solely by magical beasts. Humans, elves, and other races also lived there.

Within a small valley stood a uniquely designed Small Garden, complete with pavilions, towers, and a clear little lake, carrying a distinctive charm.

A small Grass Boat drifted with the waves across the lake surface. Yet no matter how it drifted, it remained almost entirely within the same area.

On the Grass Boat sat a young man fishing leisurely with a rod in hand. He had black eyes, black hair, and wore a black robe embroidered with golden patterns.

Behind the man stood an old man with white long hair. He had white brows, golden eyes, and six ears, and wore gray robes. Two hundred million years ago, anyone who saw this strange old man with golden eyes and six ears would have been terrified, because he was Morit, the Plane Guardian who had purged Qingya Continent's chaotic war!

Of course, he was no longer the Plane Guardian of the Qingya Plane.

"Dominator, Beirut has gone to the Divine Planes..."

Morit spoke with utmost respect. "Should this subordinate protect him in secret?"

Although he did not know why the Dominator cared about a rat that had only recently become a god, anything concerning the Dominator was a major matter to him.

Still, Beirut truly possessed remarkable talent. As a divine beast born of heaven and earth, he was extraordinarily powerful. He had talents in both Darkness and wind, and his Talent Divine Power was especially unique. Even Morit felt that he could not compare to Beirut in that regard.

With such potential, it was only natural for the Dominator to value him. Perhaps the Dominator was bored and wanted to nurture Beirut.

After all, the Dominator was the Dark Overlord, yet he had very few Darkness System emissaries.

"As long as he is not in a certain death situation, do not intervene. And once he breaks through to become a High God, there will be no need to watch him any longer."

The young man looked at the water, his tone utterly calm.

He was not certain whether Beirut would truly attain the achievements described in the novel world. The Divine Planes were extremely dangerous. Although the God-Devouring Rat possessed formidable talent and could suppress many lives, there were even more experts capable of killing him.

Especially a God-Devouring Rat that had not yet reached the High God level.

The young man's name was Lota. More than a thousand eons ago, he had arrived in this world carrying a special Earth Memory.

Only after he came into contact with cultivation did he slowly deduce the circumstances of this world by combining them with his Earth Memory.

This was the world of Reverend Insanity! A world from a novel in his Earth Memory.

Unfortunately, he had been born during the Beginning of Heaven and Earth and could rely only on himself. Though he had no talent for cultivating earth, fire, water, or wind, he possessed talent for cultivating the Dark Law, and it was even greater than he had imagined.

Later, after countless battles and experiences, when the Supreme Gods created the Four Supreme Planes, his comprehension of the Dark Law had reached the High God level...

Then, in the era when Sovereign Sparks were born, he joined the struggle for them. With his immense strength, opportunities, and luck, he seized a Darkness System Sovereign Spark!

Only after refining it did he learn that it was a Dark High-level Overlord Spark! He had become one of the eleven Dominators of heaven and earth!

During that era, whether it was the Four Great Rule Rulers or the Seven Law Overlords, there was not yet an absolute gap in power between them. Even if there were differences, they generally could not kill one another.

But Lota knew that if the world he lived in truly was the world from that novel, then this gap in strength would eventually be broken.

Thus, he had always concealed himself. The Dark Law was naturally skilled at hiding, and especially after he became an Overgod, his Dark Law had reached the Paragon realm, making it even easier for him to conceal himself.

Perhaps the Dark Law was slightly inferior to other laws in battle or defense, but in concealment, no law could compare to it.

As long as he did not reveal his strength on his own initiative, even other Paragon High-level Overlords could not discover his true circumstances. They would only regard him as an ordinary High-level Overlord.

However, what surprised him was that after Qingya Continent split apart, a system from his Earth Memory suddenly activated within his soul!

Only after this system absorbed the energy of countless amounts of Sovereign's Might did it fully activate.

[Congratulations, Master, on arriving safely with your consciousness intact. Given the great danger of this world, the novice mission rewards are generous and include many life-saving treasures. Please complete it as soon as possible! After completing the novice mission, the main storyline mission will officially begin! Novice Mission (Welfare): Break through your current level! (Note: Master may choose a warrior's breakthrough. With diligent training, advancing from an ordinary person to a level-one warrior is not difficult!) Mission Reward 1: One Return Opportunity; Mission Reward 2: Freely choose three items from the shop;]

Once Lota confirmed that it really was a system, he was left speechless. Did this suddenly activated system think he had only just arrived in this world?

In his eyes, this system was a joke at his current level. However, when he saw the items in the shop, he could not help but feel tempted...

Without his Earth Memory, even if he had this system, he would have had no way to break through, or he would simply have ignored it. But with his Earth Memory, things were different...

Especially since the plane where he had been born, with the three continents he had created back then, had become what it was today...

Among them was actually Yulan Continent! And a God-Devouring Rat had truly been born there, one that called itself Beirut!

This forced him to wonder whether the novel on Earth had described the future course of Yulan Continent.

Was there another world beyond heaven and earth?

If that were truly the case, then his breakthrough might not be entirely without hope...

New author, new book, please support it in every way!

Qingya Plane, Gobada Plane Prison.

Upon a barren earthen mountain, Morit stood respectfully behind Lota.

The space around the two of them rippled faintly. No one, no matter how powerful, could discover their location.

Beyond their position, countless experts had gathered within an area ten thousand miles away. Even the weakest among them had reached the Saint Domain Limit.

Within the Gobada Plane Prison, all weak lives had already been killed by others.

At the center of the countless spectators stood a lavishly built city. Constructing a city within the Gobada Plane Prison was itself an exceptionally difficult undertaking. The elemental essence of heaven and earth here was far inferior to that of the Qingya Plane. Comprehending profound mysteries was extremely difficult, and even drawing in divine power was a struggle.

Thus, although slaughter was frequent in the Gobada Plane Prison, battles were also extremely "economical." No battle between experts contained superfluous moves. Often, wasting divine power on a single move would lead to death.

This was even more true for the top experts here.

Watching a battle between the top experts of the Gobada Plane Prison was absolutely a visual feast filled with "exhilaration," even if the feast was brief.

Therefore, every battle involving Middle Gods or even High Gods attracted countless spectators.

Today, the two combatants were both extremely powerful even among High Gods. One of them was a formidable existence rumored among the countless experts of the Plane Prison to possess the strength of a king.

The other was Adkins, a High God expert who had suddenly risen to prominence in recent years and become famous through slaughter!

A battle between these two was absolutely enough to shake an entire region. Perhaps even other kings were watching in secret.

"I never expected the Plane Prison to have accumulated so many lives."

Lota looked at the perpetually dim sky and spoke calmly.

Although he was not the first life in the Qingya Plane, he had been among its first batch of lives. Lives born from heaven and earth could rarely determine who had truly come first; generally, many lives appeared at the same time.

Moreover, among the first batch of lives in the Qingya Plane, he was the only one to survive until now. Many other lives had been exceptionally powerful, but there had always been even stronger lives. Falling and dying was nothing unusual.

There were more fallen experts in heaven and earth than there were surviving experts.

When he was born, the Gobada Plane Prison already existed. However, it had not been a Plane Prison at that time, merely the other side of a plane.

It was like the front and back sides of a sheet of paper, except this side was somewhat barren.

After Sovereign Sparks were born and the Overgods were decided, the Overgods created the Seven Law Divine Planes and began competing for the Power of Faith. They then began dispatching Plane Guardians to the Material Planes, composing magical incantations, and spreading all manner of faiths.

Under such circumstances, the Plane Prison gradually took shape.

At first, it existed to imprison aberrations that did not believe in the Overgods. The ones imprisoned in that era were all powerful experts. After the struggle for faith ended, the Overgods attached less importance to the Material Planes and naturally paid little attention to the Plane Prison as well.

In the end, the Plane Prison became a "prison" where every successive Plane Guardian locked away lives that went against their wishes.

After countless years, the number of powerful experts in the Plane Prison had even exceeded that of the Material Plane itself.

Hearing Lota's words, Morit felt somewhat emotional as well. Though he had not been a life from the Beginning of Heaven and Earth, he had begun following Lota precisely when the Overgods were spreading magic through the Material Planes.

Countless years had passed since then.

He could be said to have personally witnessed the evolution of the Qingya Plane.

There were even hundreds of thousands of lives in this Plane Prison whom he had personally imprisoned. The two people currently fighting had both been sent here by him.

That fellow named Adkins could be considered a decent genius. When Morit had imprisoned him, the little fellow had merely been an ordinary Saint Domain Limit expert.

Only a little over two hundred million years had passed, yet he had already become a High God. More importantly, he had fused three profound mysteries. Even in the Divine Planes, he would count as a regional powerhouse.

Yet Morit was puzzled. Though Adkins was fairly strong, he was not considered a top expert in the Divine Planes. There were even several guys in this Plane Prison who were stronger than him.

He did not know why the Dominator had taken notice of such a fellow.

In Morit's eyes, Adkins's potential did not even compare to Beirut, who was currently only a Lower God. As for Adkins's character, that was not within Morit's consideration. No matter who it was, everyone was the same before the Dominator.

"Hm?"

Lota suddenly turned to look in another direction, a thoughtful glint flashing through his eyes. After a moment, he said, "Morit, go to the desert region in the northwest and find the three Saint Domain experts who were just imprisoned. One of them has Red Hair. Give him some guidance."

Morit froze slightly before bowing respectfully. "Yes."
