He had long grown accustomed to Lota's unprompted orders. Just like when Lota had told him to keep an eye on Beirut before he had become a god, he simply could not understand the reason.

He could only guess that the Dominator was bored.

Yet in the end, it had always proven that the Dominator's foresight far surpassed his own.

"When the time comes, you need not say too much. Just give him some understanding of Profound Mystery Fusion."

Lota added another sentence.

"Profound Mystery Fusion?"

This time, Morit truly had not expected it.

A Saint Domain expert, being taught about Profound Mystery Fusion?

A Saint Domain expert had only just begun to come into contact with profound mysteries. It was already exceptionally difficult to comprehend every profound mystery, yet he was going to be told about Profound Mystery Fusion now?

Although the earlier one fused profound mysteries, the better, not everyone could fuse profound mysteries from the very beginning. That was also why, despite the abundance of geniuses, few managed to fuse too many profound mysteries in advance.

"Mm. Go."

Lota offered no explanation.

"Yes. Morit obeys."

Seeing this, Morit did not dare ask further. He then transformed into a stream of light and flew directly northwest.

Lota looked toward the direction Morit had departed in. His gaze was calm and undisturbed, revealing none of his thoughts.

That red-haired young man was Zacharias from that segment of his Earth MemoryQinghuo. One of the future Five Great Kings of the Plane Prison, as well as the Fire Element Overgod partner Beirut had chosen.

If that guy truly was the same as in his memories, then he was the most talented genius to emerge from the Qingya Plane in over a thousand Eons since its birth.

Even Lota considered himself talented enough, but he had cultivated in both the Qingya Plane and the Supreme Planes. Their environments were hundreds, even ten-thousandfold, better than the Plane Prison.

For Zacharias to reach a state just one step short of Paragon in a place like Gobada Plane Prison, where even the Heaven and Earth Elements were difficult to comprehend, was enough to explain everything.

Moreover, that little fellow had not known the path of Profound Mystery Fusion at the beginning. That was why he had been unable to smoothly break through into the Grand Perfection Realm and could only rely on a Sovereign Spark to take that final step.

If he were told in advance how to fuse profound mysteries, could that guy achieve Paragon within the Plane Prison?

Lota was looking forward to it as well.

Every Paragon deserved respect. Even the Heaven and Earth Rule rewarded a Paragon with a portion of Willpower Might. This was the Heaven and Earth Rule's recognition of Paragons to a certain extent. Without reaching Paragon, one could never understand why Paragons deserved such respect.

Although Lota had intended to avoid affecting the future development of the Yulan Continent as much as possible ever since the system had "awakened," he still wanted to give Zacharias a try.

Lota looked in the direction Morit had left and stood there quietly. Then space rippled slightly. Once it settled again, Lota had vanished.

Gobada Plane Prison was enormous. Its current land area even exceeded the combined area of the Qingya Plane's five continents.

Of that, the desert region in the northwest alone accounted for one-fifth of the Plane Prison. The environment here was extremely harsh. Although Gobada Plane Prison had no sun, moon, or stars, this place seemed to be illuminated by several suns. Terrifying heat constantly filled the air, and even the air itself seemed ready to ignite.

To survive here, even Saint Domain lifeforms had to expend considerable Dou Qi.

Beneath a massive boulder leaning out of the desert, the temperature was slightly lower than in the surrounding areas. Two people were sheltering there. One was a Bald youth, while the other had refined features and already carried a somewhat gentle air.

"Big Brother, do you think Third Brother can withstand that heat?"

The Bald youth looked beyond the boulder, his gaze full of worry.

The Gentle Youth looked outside as well and let out a breath. "Since Third Brother said he was fine, there should not be a problem. He has never been wrong before."

Beyond the area sheltered by the boulder lay a scorching Gray-White expanse of barren sand and stone. Special white vapor occasionally spurted from the cracks between some of the larger stones.

The temperature of that white vapor was terrifyingly high, enough to easily ignite deadwood.

In this environment sat a young man with a full head of long red hair. His features were refined, and even his eyebrows carried a faint reddish tint, making him particularly distinctive.

The young man sat cross-legged with his eyes shut, circulating the Fire Element Dou Qi throughout his body with all his strength. Strangely, when this Fire Element Dou Qi came into contact with the surrounding white, high-temperature vapor, it was not depleted. Instead, it seemed to enter a peculiar state of fusion with it.

"Uh, that's true."

The Bald youth looked at his Third Brother and nodded. Although all three of them were in the Saint Domain, they sincerely admired their Third Brother. He was much younger than them, yet he had already surpassed them in cultivation.

Third Brother's understanding of cultivation always came from unusual angles, but it often proved that he was right.

"Alright, we should also hurry and cultivate, find a way to improve our strength. This Plane Prison is far more dangerous than the outside world. With our current strength, I fear it will be difficult even to protect ourselves."

The Gentle Youth's tone became much more solemn.

The three of them had been implicated and imprisoned here this time, which was indeed unlucky. But there was nothing they could do. Whether it was the Plane Guardian or that person who had implicated them, both were powerful god level experts beyond their ability to provoke.

"Mm."

The Bald youth nodded with a solemn expression.

Morit's flying speed within Gobada Plane Prison was terrifying. Even those kingly figures rumored throughout the Plane Prison were far inferior to him.

Like a light ray, Morit's figure reached the Northwest Desert Region of Gobada Plane Prison in an instant. His Spiritual Sense spread out, and he immediately found the location matching the red-haired young man.

"Found him."

A faint smile appeared on Morit's lips as he instantly flew toward his target.

Very quickly, Morit silently appeared atop the leaning boulder.

Morit was tall and slender, his jade-white hands lightly clasped behind his back. His golden eyes looked toward the red-haired young man cultivating below. The surrounding heat had no effect on him whatsoever.

Morit possessed two Divine Clones. One was the Light Divine Clone he currently used, and it was also his strongest clone. It had always remained by Lota's side. The other was a Fire Element Divine Clone, likewise possessing the strength of an Asura, and was currently keeping watch over Beirut in secret within Hell.

Beirut had considerable talent, but going to Hell as a Lower God was still fraught with danger.

Morit could see the red-haired young man's current state at a glance.

Judging from the density of the Dou Qi around the red-haired young man, it was not difficult to determine his realm. Yet from his present condition, he seemed to be using some special method to incorporate the heat unique to this desert into his own Dou Qi.

Morit did not speak immediately, instead quietly observing the red-haired young man.

He had always treated anything the Dominator asked of him as the most important matter. Thus, even though this red-haired young man was merely in the Saint Domain, he did not underestimate him.

"He does have some merit."

Watching the red-haired young man fuse the surrounding heat, Morit offered a word of praise.

Doing this was not difficult for Morit, or rather, for any god level expert. But this red-haired young man was merely in the Saint Domain. His ability to utilize the desert heat in such a way meant that he had already begun comprehending profound mysteries. Furthermore, he was comprehending the Scorching Profound Mystery within the Fire Element Law. His talent was quite impressive.

The Fire Element Law contained six profound mysteries in total: Fire Element, Burning Stillness Profound Mystery, Fire Body Technique, Flame Space, Scorching Profound Mystery, and Explosion Profound Mystery. Of these, the one that most obviously enhanced one's power was the Explosion Profound Mystery.

Among them, however, the Scorching Profound Mystery was the most unique and strange of the six. Comprehending it was no easier than comprehending the Explosion Profound Mystery.

Many Fire Element Middle Gods were even unable to break through to become High Gods because they could not fully comprehend the Scorching Profound Mystery.

After observing for a while, Morit descended from the boulder to the ground below, no longer concealing himself.

Yet the red-haired young man seemed to have entered some special state of comprehension and did not open his eyes, remaining quietly seated. However, from the slightly solemn expression on his face, one could tell that he had already noticed Morit.

At the first sign of anything amiss, he would interrupt his current state immediately.

The moment Morit descended from the boulder, Xius and Burgess beneath its slanted side noticed him. They abruptly rose to their feet, exchanged glances, and their eyes turned solemn.

They had not even noticed when this person had arrived?!

A god level expert! He was definitely a god level expert! Even Saint Domain experts of the Darkness System skilled in concealment could not approach them so silently. Only a god level expert could get close without them sensing anything.

Especially since they had been extremely vigilant all along. It was impossible for a Saint Domain expert to approach without their knowledge.

Although they had only recently been imprisoned in the Plane Prison, they had long heard of its terrible conditions.

They simply had not expected to encounter a god level expert so soon.

If they had encountered other Saint Domain experts, the three of them might not necessarily have been afraid. But against a god, they were certainly no match! No matter how strong a Saint Domain expert was, he could not defeat even the weakest god level expert. With God's Domain alone, a Saint Domain expert had no means of resistance.

"Xius and Burgess greet you, my lord."

Though the Gentle Youth and Bald youth remained wary, their tone and manner were extremely respectful.

Since the newcomer had not attacked directly, that meant they were not in immediate danger. Of course, only for the moment. Perhaps a single sentence might anger this guy and put their lives in danger.

Morit swept a glance over the two of them before looking back at the red-haired young man. His tone revealed no emotion. "What is his relationship with you?"

He came for Third Brother?

The two exchanged looks, unable to guess what this god level expert wanted.

Morit saw through their thoughts at once. He glanced at them with disdain and gave a scornful chuckle. "If I wished to do anything to you, do you think you would have the ability to resist?"

Let alone a few Saint Domain experts, even Seven-star Devils could not stir up a ripple before him.

This was only because the Dominator had ordered it. If ordinary ants hesitated before him, they would simply be courting death.

At that moment, several people suddenly felt their hearts tremble. It was a shudder originating from the soul.

Even Morit's expression changed slightly. Looking toward the red-haired young man, he spoke in surprise. "He actually broke through at this time."

Morit knew that sensation all too well. It was the descent of the Heaven and Earth Rule when someone independently became a god or independently broke through into the god level!

Xius and Burgess were first stunned, then unable to contain their wild joy.

"Third Brother broke through!"

Burgess's eyes lit up. For a moment, he even forgot that Morit, the god level expert who had suddenly appeared, was still beside him.

Though they were merely in the Saint Domain, their knowledge was far beyond that of ordinary people. They had heard something about becoming gods before. Seeing this scene now, they naturally recognized it immediately.

Xius's face was also filled with excitement.

Third Brother becoming a god was tremendous news for them. Only by becoming gods would they gain the true ability to survive in the Plane Prison.

Rumble—

Enveloped by the Heaven and Earth Rule, the red-haired young man uncontrollably rose into the air.

This feeling was so strange...

The red-haired young man had already opened his eyes and was clearly sensing the changes within himself.

Because the Heaven and Earth Rule had descended, Morit, Xius, and Burgess were pushed away into the distance. Even an Overgod could not affect someone protected by the Heaven and Earth Rule in the slightest.

Countless Heaven and Earth Elements appeared and gathered above the red-haired young man's head.

"A Divine Spark..."

Burgess and Xius looked at that Divine Spark, their eyes filled with longing. Becoming gods was also an obsession deeply rooted in their hearts.

Now that Third Brother had surpassed them, they could not help feeling somewhat emotional.

"Ahhhhhh—"

Suddenly, the red-haired young man within the Heaven and Earth Rule cried out in pain. His expression twisted slightly beyond his control.

"Third Brother!"

When Burgess saw the red-haired young man in that state, his face turned unnaturally pale.

"Trust Third Brother!"

Xius, on the other hand, remained relatively calm. Clearly, he knew more about becoming a god. "Under the Heaven and Earth Rule, Third Brother is achieving External Godhood. There will be no danger."

Burgess watched the red-haired young man, unconsciously clenching his fists before nodding. "Mm."

Morit glanced at the two of them and suddenly found it somewhat interesting. The red-haired young man was clearly the youngest, yet these two seemed to have an inexplicable trust in him.

Morit then continued looking at the red-haired young man. They knew about External Godhood? It seemed these people had likely belonged to a major power in the Qingya Plane.

At present, although the Qingya Plane had fewer god level experts than before, many factions still possessed a great deal of information about the god level realm. Internal Godhood and External Godhood were no secrets to such factions.
