As Leiding transmitted his voice, the four spread out in four directions, charging towards Lota almost simultaneously.
Since their physical strength reached the Sovereign Artifact level, the close combat of the four when they teamed up was extremely formidable.
Coupled with a specially researched formation, each attack from the four could be integrated, while the attacks they received could be distributed among them.
Therefore, they were not afraid of close combat with Lota at all.
This had been one of their trump cards over the years.
'Hmm? They're attacking both Augusta and me at the same time. How confident are they?'
Lota, not having endured the talent divine powers of Leiding and the other three, was naturally able to react to their attack.
Lota's expression remained unchanged. He extended his right hand, and Ilitana, which was wrapped around Lota's hand, split into three intertwined vine branches, each as thick as an arm.
In the blink of an eye, these three vine branches turned into a vine "wooden stick" as tall as a person. Then, the three branches tightened, their thickness becoming just right for Lota to grip.
"Heh."
Lota's gaze was steady, and his figure moved instantly. The long staff in his hand directly smashed towards the four.
Not only Lota and Augusta, but even the Sovereign Gods watching from the surroundings were all shocked by the actions of the Four Divine Beasts.
They had thought that with the Dark Overlord and the Light Overlord attacking together, the Four Divine Beasts would be much more cautious. Who knew they would attack both Lota and Augusta at the same time?
This had truly exceeded everyone's expectations.
However, not all Sovereign Gods were unaware of the intentions of Leiding and the others.
At this moment, Ofu, Uthred, and the Life Overlord Vivian were not far from the Death Overlord. After finding each other, the four gathered together.
They were well aware of what might happen next.
Standing together was naturally for mutual restraint later, to avoid triggering a true Sovereign God War.
"It seems Leiding and the others were well prepared," the Death Overlord transmitted with a chuckle.
Ofu also nodded slightly, "Leiding and the others' choice is not wrong. I just don't know if Augusta can block it."
"Isn't Augusta your friend? Aren't you worried about him?" the Death Overlord teased casually.
In the perception of all Sovereign Gods, Ofu being friends with Augusta was a strange thing.
But upon closer thought, it was indeed only someone with Ofu's personality who could accept someone like Augusta.
"Friends are friends, but Sovereign God agreements are Sovereign God agreements."
Ofu's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled amiably, "Since Augusta has made a move, even if he falls, it has nothing to do with others."
"Heh, you're quite open-minded."
The Death Overlord couldn't quite figure out Ofu's thoughts.
Although Augusta's strength was the strongest among the Law Overlords, blocking this move by Leiding and the others? It was probably not that simple.
Under such circumstances, Augusta dared to directly engage Leiding and the others.
It seemed Augusta also had many trump cards. She didn't believe Augusta would throw his life away for nothing.
The next second, all the Sovereign Gods were shocked by the scene that unfolded.
First, Augusta. It was thought that Augusta, being "ambushed" by the Four Divine Beasts, would be greatly affected even if he could block their talent divine powers. However, Augusta only paused for a moment before returning to normal.
The combined talent divine power of the Four Divine Beasts was actually ineffective against Augusta?!
For a moment, all the Sovereign Gods were stunned.
Even the Rule Overlords were somewhat disbelieving.
"How is this possible?" Uthred frowned slightly.
How powerful the talent divine power of the Four Divine Beasts was, he knew very well after countless years of research. How could Augusta be completely unharmed?
"Seeking death!"
Augusta, having recovered, summoned a giant light sword, his ultimate attack Sovereign Artifact! The strongest weapon in this world.
Holding the giant light sword in his hand, Augusta turned into a stream of light and flew towards the battlefield.
Besides Augusta's unbelievable performance in withstanding the talent divine power of the Four Divine Beasts, Lota's performance truly made everyone's eyes widen.
Lota smashed his staff towards the Four Divine Beasts, and they each unleashed their material attacks.
Dragon tail, tiger claw, vermilion beak, turtle shell, all attacked simultaneously.
The four attacks, amplified by the magic array, merged into one. Although it was not as natural as their talent divine power, and some energy had leaked out, the power of the combined attack far surpassed their individual material attacks.
Even if it couldn't compare to an ordinary Law Overlord, the gap was not insurmountable.
Coupled with their formidable bodies, they could hold their ground against any ordinary Law Overlord for a period of time.
"Boom~~~"
Lota swung his staff down, colliding with the attacks of Leiding and the other three. A terrifying energy fluctuation erupted, clearing away the surrounding spatial turbulence.
Leiding and the other three's attacks shattered and disintegrated under Lota's staff strike. Not only that, but the strike still had residual power, smashing directly towards Leiding and the other three.
However, An unexpected change occurred.
Augusta, wielding the Supreme God Sword, did not attack Leiding and the other three. Instead, he swung his sword towards Lota.
A terrifying aura descended with this sword strike.
Lota was not surprised. He had long known that Augusta would not be affected by the Four Divine Beasts' innate divine powers.
Furthermore, since Augusta intended to snatch the Sovereign Spark and the Four Divine Beasts' essence blood and corpses, how could he stand by and watch Lota kill the Four Divine Beasts?
Therefore, although Lota's residual power was directed at Leiding and the other three, after shattering their attacks, only a tenth of the strike's power was split off as a mere afterimage.
After splitting off the residual power to create this afterimage, countless black vines formed from Sovereign Power spread from Lota's long staff, instantly engulfing Augusta's incoming attack.
This was a combined move of Lota and Ilitana, possessing extremely strong restrictive effects.
Even with Augusta using a supreme artifact, the power of his attack was greatly reduced.
With Augusta's attack power limited, Lota's long staff then struck Augusta's Supreme God Sword from the side.
"Bang~~~"
Terrifying energy scattered.
Under the immense force, both Augusta and Lota were pushed back a considerable distance.
Excluding various ultimate moves, and only considering physical body, profound mysteries, willpower might, and weapons, Augusta's strength was approximately a thousand times that of an ordinary Law Overlord.
Lota's displayed strength at this moment was no weaker than Augusta's.
Even though Augusta might not have gone all out, Lota was still only reacting hastily.
Lota's displayed strength shocked all the Sovereign Gods.
Especially Hulley, the Lightning Law Overlord. He had always considered himself the strongest among the Law Overlords, second only to Augusta. He even believed he wouldn't necessarily lose against Augusta.
Yet, this Lota before him was actually on par with Augusta?!
What was even more shocking was not that Lota and Augusta were evenly matched, but the state of the Four Divine Beasts.
The Four Divine Beasts, struck by the residual power of Lota's afterimage, had their formation shattered by this blow. Their massive, ten-thousand-meter-long bodies were sent flying uncontrollably, each bearing terrifying injuries.
Even Leiding had many of his dragon scales shattered, bleeding profusely.
The other three were even more severely injured.
The Sovereign Gods watching were dumbfounded.
The residual power of an afterimage had reduced the Four Divine Beasts to this state?
In the understanding of all the Sovereign Gods, Lota was merely an ordinary Law Overlord. Even if the Rule Overlord believed Lota's strength would be greater, and Ofu had almost confirmed Lota had reached the Grand Perfection realm, such power would not result in a complete crushing against the combined might of the Four Divine Beasts.
After all, the bodies of the Four Divine Beasts were comparable to supreme artifacts, and they possessed a combined magic array.
Even if they couldn't match an ordinary Law Overlord, they shouldn't be completely defenseless.
The reality completely exceeded their understanding.
Did this mean that without the Light Overlord's intervention, the Four Divine Beasts couldn't even withstand a single strike from the Dark Overlord?!
The Four Divine Beasts were also completely stunned.
Their combined attack had first offset some of Lota's power. The remaining force that hit them was hastily dealt with, with each of them bearing a portion of the impact.
As a result, they were injured? Their dragon scales were shattered?
Could the quarter of the power from that hasty strike injure them this badly? That quarter of the power was probably more than twenty times stronger than them!
Was this truly a Law Overlord?
Leiding and the others felt doubt creeping into their hearts. If Law Overlords were all this strong, they had been a joke from the very beginning.
Besides Lota, there was also Augusta. That guy had blocked their innate divine powers.
How was this possible?!
Lota? Augusta?
Something must have gone wrong.
"Lota, Augusta."
Uthred's gaze narrowed slightly.
Both Augusta and Lota's strength exceeded his expectations. With this strength, Leiding and the other three were surely doomed.
But why were their strengths greater than expected?
Augusta was understandable, after all, he had a supreme artifact. But Lota, his strength was far too different from what was expected. Even if he had previously guessed that Lota's strength was greater than he appeared, it shouldn't have reached this level.
Uthred was also somewhat uncertain about Lota's situation.
Only Ofu and the Death Overlord, while showing some surprise, were not overly shocked.
"Lota's physical strength seems to be quite formidable," Ofu said, looking at Lota with a slight smile.
At this point, he knew that his previous assessment of Lota's strength had been too low.
With this level of power, Lota was definitely a Grand Perfection Law Overlord with a powerful physique. His strength was at least a thousand times that of an ordinary Law Overlord.
Only then could he display such power.
After all, Augusta was him. He could feel Augusta's sensations. Lota's strength was too immense. Even if his body wasn't at the level of a Sovereign Artifact, it was no weaker than Augusta's.
In fact, what Ofu had deduced was precisely the strength Lota had intentionally displayed.
In reality, Lota's current physique was in no way inferior to any Sovereign God. Even when compared to Uthred, a Super Divine Beast, in terms of physical toughness, he wouldn't be at a disadvantage.
This was achieved by him utilizing his own bloodline, combined with Ilitana's bloodline and talent divine power.
Therefore, even without considering his ultimate moves, just his Grand Perfection Law and his Sovereign Artifact-like physique meant his strength surpassed that of an ordinary Law Overlord by ten thousand times.
Including his ultimate moves and some special techniques, even if he couldn't match a Rule Overlord, he wouldn't be much weaker than the current Rule Overlords.
However, there was no need to reveal so much right now.
Even revealing strength comparable to Augusta was only intended to be used when competing with Augusta for the Four Divine Beasts. It was to prevent the Four Divine Beasts from falling into Augusta's hands.
"You've been hiding your strength quite deeply."
Augusta's expression turned even more somber.
Previously, although Ofu had mentioned that Lota's strength might be that of a Grand Perfection Law Overlord, Augusta knew that his own strength was more than ten times greater than a Grand Perfection Law Overlord.
Naturally, he hadn't been overly wary of Lota.
He was also confident that he could snatch the Four Divine Beasts from Lota.
But now, Lota's strength was actually on par with his own!
