Pash's tone changed considerably.

He knew Kakqi's strength, especially his Water Element Divine Clone, which was only an average Six-star Devil. Now, he had improved so much.

This meant Kakqi now had two Asura-level clones. If that were the case, they might have a chance against Quinsang.

However, in Pash's opinion, even so, it was unlikely Kakqi could defeat Quinsang. After all, Quinsang not only had his Law comprehension at its peak but also possessed a Sovereign Artifact for attack.

Kakqi's defense could block Morit, but it might not be able to block Quinsang. The Sovereign Artifact's amplification was a hundredfold, capable of completely crushing Kakqi.

Lota didn't speak, only narrowing his eyes slightly. Two Asura clones?

Perhaps not.

Seeing Lota remain silent, Pash didn't say anything more. The two stood still in the air, continuing to watch the battle.

Besides them, many God-level experts had gathered in the distance. Many Water-element God-level experts were using Shadow Image techniques to record this battle. The Shadow Images of battles between High Gods were extremely valuable in the Devil Castle.

Especially the energy fluctuations just now, which made even the High Gods of the Qunluo Mountains tremble. The combatants were likely powerful Six-star Devils, or even Seven-star Devils!

These were peak experts in Hell!

It was a battle that could not be sought out.

"I didn't expect your Water Element Law to reach such a realm..."

Morit looked at Kakqi and transmitted his voice.

The strength Kakqi displayed had indeed exceeded his expectations.

Kakqi didn't answer directly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit. Since his strength had improved, Morit was the strongest person he had encountered.

Although this was not Morit's strongest Divine Clone, the attack power Morit had just displayed had genuinely surprised him. If it were before, he would have been unable to block it.

Fire Element Law experts indeed had powerful attacks.

"If your Light Divine Clone hadn't appeared, you wouldn't have been able to defeat me."

Although Morit's attack power was good, Kakqi was extremely confident. "You should try my attack too."

As his voice fell, Kakqi stopped defending and directly swung the long whip in his hand. Countless spatial ripples formed a giant "Tornado," attacking Morit.

The surrounding peaks were easily shattered like tofu under this "Tornado." Accompanied by these countless shattered stones and giant trees, numerous Water elements gathered around them. A water-blue light appeared, the temperature plummeted, and frost formed out of thin air, instantly condensing ice edges on these shattered stones and giant trees.

Hissing, these countless shattered stones and giant trees, condensed with ice edges, swept towards Morit.

The Water Element Law leaned more towards defense, being strong in both material and Soul defense. As for offense, only the Icy Sharpness Profound Mystery provided a greater boost.

Kakqi's move was primarily based on the Icy Sharpness Profound Mystery. Unlike using a Profound Mystery alone, he also utilized countless shattered stones and giant trees to increase its power.

"What a terrifying move..."

The God-level experts watching from afar turned pale upon seeing this "Tornado." Many even moved further away, fearing they would be affected.

"Heh heh, flashy but impractical."

Morit had been paying attention to Kakqi. This move, in his opinion, might be effective in group battles, but it was somewhat insufficient for one-on-one combat. "You're still a bit lacking in terms of material attacks!"

Saying this, Morit raised his hands. Countless fiery-red elements gathered behind him, turning the entire sky into a strange red. This formed a stark contrast with Kakqi's water-blue "Tornado."

Countless Fire Elements transformed into streams of light, intertwining and converging in front of Morit.

In the blink of an eye, those countless Fire Elements formed a burning fireball with a diameter of half a meter in front of Morit. The fireball's color had changed from red to gold, and the terrifying temperature caused the surrounding space to tremble.

Under the illumination of this Golden Fireball, a faint golden halo appeared around Morit.

"These two seem to want to directly clash head-on..."

Pash said, watching the scene in the arena.

The competition between Kakqi and Morit was different from a battle of personal enmity. Although there was a risk of falling, it was a competition requested by Lota, so it was naturally more direct. From the beginning, they engaged in direct confrontation from all aspects, without intending to kill each other.

Lota nodded as he watched their moves.

At this moment, Lota also recalled some combat descriptions from "Earth Memory." Although there were many battle scenes described, most of them were close-quarters combat.

Among the experts in the Divine Plane, close-quarters combat was indeed common. However, in many cases, close combat was the last resort. Even God-level experts who cultivated the Earth Law, which was suitable for close combat, would not engage in close combat from the start.

To put it in Lota's words from "Earth Memory," God-level experts were more like "mages." Many powerful moves could not be unleashed in close combat.

Of course, there were also experts like Linley who primarily focused on close combat. It wasn't that close combat was inferior to ranged attacks, but in battles within the Divine Plane, one could fall with just a slight carelessness. Ranged attacks were not inferior in power to close combat, and they were relatively safer. Therefore, in the Divine Plane, it wasn't like in "Earth Memory" where everyone chose close combat; everyone's first choice tended to be ranged attacks.

In fact, in the Divine Plane, true life-and-death battles mostly involved the combined use of ranged and close-combat techniques. At this time, the advantage of Divine Clones could be fully demonstrated. Different Laws had different strengths, and only by coordinating them could the strongest power be unleashed.

If Linley were not the "Protagonist of Destiny," his habit of solely relying on close combat would have made it difficult for him to survive in the Divine Plane.

It was also because of the coordinated advantage of ranged attacks from Divine Clones that the scenes described in the "Earth Memory" of the plane battlefield appeared, where soldiers could kill commanders by working together.

Even in the tenth battle, there was a possibility of Paragon High-Gods falling.

Aside from the effect of Sovereign Power, it was precisely because experts of different elements cooperated, combining ranged and close-combat attacks, that more offensive power could be unleashed.

Of course, the plane battlefield was limited in scope, which greatly affected the Paragon High-Gods. But this was enough to illustrate the power of coordinated ranged attacks.

Therefore, although the Four Divine Beast Families did not have Grand Perfection or Peak Asura experts, they could still become the "First Family" of the Divine Plane. This was because they had many High Gods!

Countless High Gods working together, even a Peak Asura would have to fall.

This was also why many escort missions in the Divine Plane recruited a large number of First and Second-level Devils. It should be known that First and Second-level Devils were almost all Mid-level Gods.

The reason is that a large number of intermediate gods joined forces, and long-range attacks also had a chance to kill high-level gods.

Only sovereign gods truly ignored the difference in numbers. This is also one of the reasons why sovereign gods are completely different from gods.

Sovereign gods are no longer something that can be dealt with by numbers. Therefore, sovereign gods are high above, looking down on all beings.

Morit and Kakqi's moves appeared almost simultaneously.

From afar, it looked like a water and ice dragon, roaring and swallowing a golden sun.

"Hiss!"

The tornado swallowed the fireball, and countless ice-shattering debris and giant trees shot towards the center. Instantly, piercing hissing sounds came from within the tornado.

Some distant intermediate gods and demigods even felt dizzy upon hearing this sound.

"The attack is not bad."

Morit praised Kakqi when his tornado didn't collapse immediately after swallowing his fireball. However, Morit didn't care, his golden eyes full of confidence, "Explode for me!"

As Morit's voice fell, the center of the tornado actually began to glow. Even the countless ice shards showed signs of melting!

However, the melted ice shards formed mist, and this mist continued to form new chains, wrapping around the center.

Clearly, Kakqi's move was not as simple as it appeared.

However, in the blink of an eye, the golden fireball seemed to suddenly become violent. Countless energies poured out like a volcano, instantly forming a huge explosion. Under the terrifying energy, the tornado finally couldn't hold on and exploded along with the golden fireball.

The space shattered under this energy, forming a huge area of spatial fragmentation.

Countless small fireballs, accompanied by ice shards, shot out in all directions.

The entangled small fireballs and ice shards continued to explode, and the energy became violent for a time.

"Quick, dodge!"

The expressions of the surrounding god-level powerhouses changed drastically, and they instantly transformed into various forms and fled in all directions.

Kakqi's expression became solemn as his tornado exploded. Morit's golden fireball was stronger than he had imagined. The residual energy from this explosion alone was enough to kill an ordinary high-level god.

Seeing the countless fireballs rushing towards him, Kakqi did not dodge. The divine power around him instantly condensed, forming a huge wave shield in front of him.

Unlike the pure blue divine power of the water element he displayed when he first used the tornado, the shield Kakqi condensed at this moment was a special cyan, which was extremely magical.

The energy that could kill a high-level god only caused a slight ripple when it hit this shield before dissipating.

Even Morit had his defensive energy consumed when resisting this overflowing energy, unlike Kakqi who handled it with ease.

Seeing this, Lota let out a slight chuckle. Clearly, Lota had already guessed it.

Pash, on the other hand, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, "Fused divine power..."

"Fused divine power..."

Pash's tone was slightly surprised, "This Kakqi's soul has mutated, no wonder he dared to challenge Quinsang."

Only gods whose souls have mutated can use fused divine power, this is an ironclad rule.

Soul mutation is extremely rare. The mortality rate is extremely high, and the more clones there are, the greater the possibility of death.

But similarly, once the soul mutation is successful, different divine powers can be fused. The power of two fused divine powers is ten times that of a single divine power. Moreover, different divine clones can use the divine power of other clones. The laws are profound, and almost all clones are equivalent to one's strongest clone.

This alone is enough to see the power of soul-mutated powerhouses.

What's more, for soul-mutated powerhouses, in addition to the fusion of divine power, the profound mysteries of different laws can also be fused. The fusion of two different laws' profound mysteries is equivalent to the fusion of three profound mysteries of the same law.

Not only that, but the souls of soul-mutated powerhouses are also extremely powerful, far exceeding those of the same level. Whether it is deducing the profound mysteries of laws or soul attacks and defenses, they are all very strong.

It can be said that the potential and strength of soul-mutated powerhouses exceed those of ordinary gods.

However, soul mutation is too difficult. Even a two-element soul mutation has a mortality rate exceeding ninety percent. A three-element soul mutation, over countless years and countless lives, there is only one in the entire Hell, and this probability is already infinitely close to zero.

And a four-element?

No one has ever succeeded, it is certain death.

"You are soul-mutated?!"

Morit's spiritual sense naturally discovered the shield condensed by Kakqi using fused divine power, and his expression couldn't help but become more serious.

No wonder this guy's water-element clone was so strong.

The souls of soul-mutated individuals are powerful. Coupled with his own Asura of the Law of Life, his soul has Asura-level power. If he fully deduces the Water Element Law, even if his water-element talent is mediocre, it is not difficult for his water-element clone to achieve Asura-level.

Combined with his fused divine power and soul, even among Asuras, his strength is among the very top.

Kakqi had no intention of hiding it, "Although your attack just now had good power, you are not my opponent right now. Let your light clone come out."

Even though Morit's attack had the initiative just now, Kakqi did not go all out. Now that he was using fused divine power, Morit's fire-element clone was not his opponent.

However, he did not dare to underestimate Morit, after all, Morit's strongest was his Light Divine Clone. Even in all divine planes, Morit's Light Divine Clone was only below Grand Perfection.

If he could fight Morit's Light Divine Clone, it would be the greatest gain for him.

"Heh heh, soul mutation is powerful, but I don't know if it's stronger than Sovereign Power..."

Morit did not mention the whereabouts of his Light Divine Clone. Instead, he extended his right hand, and a drop of black liquid emitting a terrifying aura appeared, which was the power of the Dark Lord God.
