The Growth of the Four from Baruch, Plotting for Ten Consecutive Wins

Ten years later, four waves of universal laws descended simultaneously, and four midgod sparks condensed into form, merging into the bodies of four figures.

"Phew, finally broke through."

A youth in blue robes exhaled, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

"Hehe, big brother Baruch, we didn't let you leave us behind, did we?"

Behind the blue-haired youth, a brown-haired youth wore a smug expression.

"Amanda, you have the nerve to say that? If it weren't for waiting for you, big brother would have broken through a year ago."

The white-robed youth beside him slapped Amanda on the head, speaking in an annoyed tone.

"Alright, Bolei, the four of us advance and retreat together."

Baruch raised his hand to stop Bolei with a smile, a sense of warmth welling up in his heart.

The four figures were none other than the newly born Four Divine Beasts of the Qingya Plane: the Azure Dragon Baruch, the Vermilion Bird Haide, the White Tiger Bolei, and the Black Tortoise, Amanda.

"Hum~~"

The next moment, an energy that suppressed the heavens and earth emerged, and a figure in blue robes appeared, followed by two figures, one purple and one white.

"Sovereign!"

Baruch immediately stood up and bowed to Hope.

"Greetings, Sovereign!"

The other three stopped their bickering and bowed to Hope as well.

Hope looked at the four figures who had just become gods, nodded slightly, and spoke in a casual tone:

"Not bad. In just ten years, all four of you have become midgods."

Regarding the talent of the Four Divine Beasts, even though he had expected it, Hope still felt a bit surprised. The moment the Four Divine Beasts were born, the laws of the universe descended, and they immediately became lowgods. Now, after only ten years, they had all fused profound mysteries to become midgods.

Such talent was thanks to their joint cultivation. The Four Divine Beasts were the darlings of the universe; when the four were together, whether cultivating or doing anything else, they could achieve twice the result with half the effort. Compared to the God-Eater Rat, who only became a god upon reaching adulthood, their speed was fast enough to make one's jaw drop.

"Alright, you four must remember: although your talent is strong, this world has never lacked geniuses. Do not slack off in your cultivation."

A blue light flashed in Hope's eyes as he scanned the four, his gaze lingering for a moment on the Black Tortoise, Amanda.

Amanda seemed to sense it and nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at rice, indicating that he would work hard on his cultivation.

"These are four interspatial rings containing divine artifacts prepared for you. Next, go to the Qingya Continent to gain some experience. Remember, be careful in your actions. If you encounter danger, I may not be able to save you in time."

Hope waved his right hand, and the four interspatial rings landed in the hands of Baruch and the others.

"Yes, Sovereign!"

As the eldest brother, Baruch nodded firmly. At this moment, he did not know how powerful the Sovereign they followed truly was, and he took the Sovereign's words about being unable to save them in time at face value.

After bidding farewell to Hope, the new Four Divine Beasts quickly left the Divine Beast Continent and flew toward the Qingya Continent.

"Sovereign, isn't the talent of these new Four Divine Beasts a bit too terrifying?"

After Baruch and the others left, Ninisha was the first to break the silence, her tone filled with a hint of awe.

"Indeed. At this rate, their breakthrough to highgod won't be too far off. Furthermore, their innate divine abilities can be fused."

Bayer's long, narrow eyebrows fluttered in the wind, his tone tinged with envy. Even as a Paragon Highgod, one would feel surprised by certain talents of super divine beasts.

"Sovereign, if the four of them break through to highgod and become Asuras, and use their joint innate divine ability, could the two of us block it?"

Ninisha was silent for a moment before looking at Hope to ask the question in her heart.

Bayer also looked at Hope; this was the question in his heart as well. In the past, the Four Divine Beasts were Sovereigns, and even if they had heard of the Four Divine Beasts Sovereigns' ability to fuse innate divine abilities, they wouldn't have cared much, as it was a matter for Sovereigns.

But now, the new Four Divine Beasts were gods. If they broke through to highgod, or even reached the level of Asura, just how powerful would their joint innate divine ability be?

"The two of you, without a soul-protecting sovereign artifact, would not be able to block it!"

Hope scanned Ninisha and Bayer, giving a definitive answer.

Although no Paragon Highgods were born during the early days of the universe, and Reding and the others had never fought a Paragon before becoming Sovereigns, Hope, who had sensed their innate divine abilities up close, could be certain that the innate divine ability of the highgod Four Divine Beasts could wipe out a Paragon Highgod.

The Four Divine Beasts were the strongest super divine beasts in the universe. Each one alone was a super divine beast, and the power of their joint innate divine ability was far beyond that of a God-Eater Rat or an Amethyst Divine Beast.

"This... Sovereign, are you planning to use them as a trump card to participate in the Plane Wars with Ninisha?"

Bayer felt a moment of shock, temporarily suppressing the thought of going to the Plane Wars to obtain a soul-protecting sovereign artifact, and asked.

As a Paragon Highgod who had personally taken action to repel the Twelve-Winged Angel during the tenth war of the Water Elemental Plane, Bayer knew a great deal about the situation there, so he immediately thought of the possibility of the new Four Divine Beasts entering the Plane Wars.

"That's right. Ninisha alone might not be able to win."

Hope nodded; there was no need to hide anything from Ninisha and the others.

"Sovereign, if it is only the Twelve-Winged Angel, I can handle it alone."

Ninisha couldn't help but speak, sparks of electricity flashing over her purple hair.

"I know. However, the Chief Sovereign of Light, having suffered a loss once, will not give up easily. His Paragon envoy, the Light Paragon Clementine, will likely take action."

Hope shook his head and explained simply.

Upon hearing this, Ninisha couldn't help but fall silent. Although she was confident in her strength, she dared not claim she could withstand the pressure of Clementine to help the Water Elemental Plane win. After all, Clementine didn't need to win—a draw would suffice—but she could not afford that.

"Augusta, I don't know how much preparation you'll make, but this time, I am determined to win!"

Hope's gaze pierced into the void, as if looking through the Spatial Turbulence toward the Radiant Divine Realm.

For the next Plane War, Hope was determined to secure the ninth and tenth consecutive victories for the Water Elemental Plane, relying not only on the Lightning Paragon Highgod Ninisha but also on the new Four Divine Beasts Highgods.

Although Ninisha was a Paragon Highgod, she was only one person after all, and ensuring a tenth consecutive victory for the Water Elemental Plane would be difficult; furthermore, since Hope had already achieved a ten-win streak once before, the other Sovereigns would be even more guarded against him.

Hope did not care about the thoughts of most Sovereigns, but he focused his attention on Augusta, because Augusta had not only the Twelve-Winged Angels at his disposal but also the Radiant Paragon Clementine, and even the Fate Paragon Magnus.

Although Magnus had not publicly revealed his status as a Paragon, Hope knew his true strength, and the best way to ensure a second ten-win streak was to have Ninisha and the Four Divine Beasts guard the two Star River Passages separately.

"Augusta, if you send two Paragons into the fray, then I will let you witness the scene of the Four Divine Beasts slaughtering a Paragon Highgod."

Hope sighed inwardly, then composed his mind.
