Returning to the Four Divine Beasts Family (Signed, Seeking Investment, Seeking Votes)
Santos found Tak's deduction quite reasonable. Neither of them believed that the surge of law energy had been caused by the Heaven and Earth Law descending when Wyatt broke through to Paragon.
It was no secret that Wyatt possessed more than one Divine Avatar. At this time, it was far more likely that one of his other, weaker Divine Avatars had broken through.
As the fluctuation of power faded away, Santos and Tak stopped paying attention to Chegewen and Yaro's situation.
In their eyes, the Supreme God's Mirror and the Supreme God Token were already theirs for the taking.
Santos and Tak had even imagined the scene of the four of them returning to the Augusta Family and being received by the Lord of Light.
But when the two of them withdrew their gazes and looked toward the Plane Teleportation Array at the same time, the sight before them left Santos and Tak standing there in stunned silence.
At some unknown moment, a figure had appeared like a ghost, standing quietly beside the Plane Teleportation Array.
Santos and Tak had not sensed the slightest trace of this figure's aura. Even now, when they released their divine sense, they could not detect any aura from the person before them!
Yet judging by his appearance, wasn't this suddenly appearing black-robed figure Wyatt, the Four Divine Beasts Family member they had been pursuing?
"If Wyatt is here, then Chegewen and Yaro..."
Both their hearts sank. Coupled with the strange feeling Wyatt gave off now, their sense of foreboding grew even stronger.
"What? Are you two standing here because you want to block the Plane Teleportation Array and stop me from escaping to another plane through it?"
Looking at Santos and Tak before him, Wyatt smiled. Yet that smile made the hearts of the two men before him plunge straight to the bottom.
"N-No, my lord, you must be joking. If you wish to leave, you may do so at any time."
Santos and Tak reacted quickly, immediately putting on ingratiating smiles. Santos spoke in a fawning tone, even changing the way he addressed Wyatt.
With Wyatt appearing here at this moment, everything was already obvious.
Yaro and Chegewen had fallen, and this Wyatt of the Four Divine Beasts Family had reached Paragon!
Although the scene before them was hard to believe, it was the truth. The Heaven and Earth Law fluctuation just now had indeed been the law energy produced when he reached Paragon!
The Augusta Family group, who had believed victory was assured and had been preparing to return for their reward, had instantly lost two members. Now Santos and Tak were in mortal danger as well.
"All right, I can't be bothered to waste words with you. The two of you tried to kill me before. Though now that I've reached Paragon, under normal circumstances I might not bother settling scores with you, this matter involves a Supreme God Token. For my own safety, the two of you should die now."
As soon as he finished speaking, two strange streaks of purple lightning shot out from Wyatt's forehead!
The four Supreme Planes were Hell, the Heavenly Realm, the Netherworld, and the Life God Realm.
Each Supreme Plane was unimaginably vast.
The number of deities living within them was equally terrifying.
Although countless deities fell every day for all kinds of reasons, countless deities also arrived in Hell from Material Planes through teleportation arrays every day.
The weak were prey to the strong, and only the fittest survived. Only the strong were worthy of living in the Supreme Planes.
Hell was divided into five continents and two great seas.
The five continents formed a ring around the central Starry Mist Sea, while beyond them lay the renowned Sea of Chaos.
Of the five continents, Zijing Continent lay to the north, Muya Continent to the south, Bifu Continent to the east, and Keluosha Continent to the west. Between Bifu Continent and Muya Continent, in Hell's southeast, was Bloodpeak Continent.
Whether it was the five continents or the two great seas, all of them were unimaginably vast.
Lower Gods, and even the vast majority of High-Gods, could spend their entire lives without ever leaving the continent they inhabited.
Setting aside the distance, the bandits everywhere in Hell alone were more than ordinary deities could handle.
In present-day Hell, if one were to name the most famous continent, it would undoubtedly be Bloodpeak Continent.
There was no other reason: Bloodpeak Continent was home to the Four Divine Beasts Family, known as the number one family in the Supreme Planes!
The strength of the Four Divine Beasts Family was universally known. There were hundreds of Seven-Star Devils within the family alone, despite such figures being rarely seen elsewhere!
The most direct reason the Four Divine Beasts Family was so powerful now was that it possessed four Overgod ancestors!
Iron Knife Gorge was a rather famous gorge located on Bloodpeak Continent.
Within the gorge stood Plane Teleportation Arrays leading to other planes.
When super experts of Bloodpeak Continent wished to travel to other planes or God Planes, they would most likely come to Iron Knife Gorge.
Blood-red gorges, like sharp blades thrust into the earth, stood there as though they had not changed for hundreds of millions of years. Halfway up one gorge in Iron Knife Gorge was a vast hollowed-out platform.
Upon the platform stood enormous teleportation magic formations of various colors.
Near those formations stood members of the Bloodpeak Army, clad in blood-red armor and radiating baleful auras.
These Bloodpeak Army soldiers were Overgod troops under the command of the Bloodpeak Sovereign.
To join the Overgod troops, one had to be at least a Mid-God who had become a deity independently, and one's strength also had to surpass that of an ordinary Mid-God.
In the eyes of some ordinary deities, becoming a member of the Overgod troops was already quite a respectable position.
At this moment, a number of Bloodpeak Army members had gathered beside the Plane Teleportation Arrays. Their duty was to receive Saint Domain experts and deities arriving from Material Planes.
"Carol, I heard that the Super Genius of your Four Divine Beasts Family is only one step away from becoming a Paragon High-God. Do you think that after roaming outside for so long, that lord might have already broken through?"
Within the Bloodpeak Army, a young man and an old man stood beside a Plane Teleportation Array. As they received natives from Material Planes, they chatted casually.
The one who had just spoken was the young man.
The old man beside him was named Rokar. Within the Four Divine Beasts Family, he was merely a branch member. Since his strength was lacking and he had remained only a Mid-God despite cultivating for countless years, the family had sent him to the Bloodpeak Army to gather intelligence.
"That's not impossible. Lord Wyatt's strength back then was absolutely the greatest in the family aside from the four Overgod ancestors. Even the four clan leaders were no match for him. If he truly breaks through to Paragon, the prestige of our Four Divine Beasts Family will rise once more. By then, what Augusta Family? They'll have to step aside!"
At the mention of the Four Divine Beasts Family, the old man could not help raising his head proudly. Being a member of the Four Divine Beasts Family filled him with immense pride.
It was no wonder the old man behaved this way. With such a powerful family backing him, any deity would have reason to feel proud.
Even the young man before him envied the old man immensely, despite the fact that he was only an ordinary branch member of the Four Divine Beasts Family.
"Someone else has arrived from a Material Plane. Let's hurry over and receive them."
As they chatted, the old man looked toward the teleportation array and saw its light flare up once more.
As the two approached, the light of the Plane Teleportation Array faded, revealing a figure before the old man and the young man.
"Y-You are...!"
Upon seeing the face of the figure within the teleportation array, the old man's eyes widened, and even his voice began to tremble uncontrollably.
"What is your name?"
Looking at the old man before him, Wyatt smiled faintly. He could naturally sense the aura of the Four Divine Beasts Family bloodline within him.
"Rokar of the Four Divine Beasts Family greets Lord Wyatt!"
Rokar's excited voice trembled. He had never imagined that he would meet the greatest genius in the history of the Four Divine Beasts Family at such a time.
And if Rokar had heard correctly just now, Lord Wyatt had been speaking to him.
"Rokar. Not a bad name."
Wyatt nodded slightly at the old man. He did not say much else, however. With a flicker, he vanished from the vicinity of the Plane Teleportation Array.
He was so fast that the Bloodpeak Army soldiers had no time to react at all. All they could see were lingering afterimages!
