"Kolan, is it? How about it? Are you willing to head to the Divine Plane or a Supreme Plane?" Hodan looked toward Kolan.

With his mid-level god cultivation, he could tell that Kolan's spiritual energy was formidable; his strength would certainly not be weak.

Kolan replied with a hint of apology, "Lord Hodan, I have only lived for a few hundred years since my birth. I have spent all my time focused on cultivation, and to this day, I have no partner, not even any descendants. I was just planning to find some time to marry, have children, and establish a family like Baruch."

"If I ever grow tired of life in the Yulan Plane, I will go to the Arctic Icefield to find you, Lord Hodan!" Kolan's tone was very respectful.

Kolan sneered inwardly.

Other Saint-level experts might not know the truth, but how could he not!?

A Saint-level expert is a powerhouse in the Yulan Plane, standing high above the rest, a legendary existence to ordinary people.

But once they go to a Divine Plane or a Supreme Plane, a Saint-level expert is nothing but cannon fodder. Normally, after being abandoned by the Sovereign army, they wouldn't survive three days.

Low-level gods can at least join a tribe or a bandit group, but no tribe or bandit group would ever want a Saint-level expert.

If you are lucky and get dropped in a desolate, uninhabited place, you might still be able to cultivate into a god. If you are unlucky and run into a bandit group, you are killed on the spot without a second thought.

He would have to be an idiot to go to a Divine Plane or a Supreme Plane as a Saint-level expert.

"Very well!" Hodan smiled.

After drinking for a while, he left with the eighteen Saint-level experts who wished to head to the Divine Plane and the Supreme Plane.

Once Hodan departed, the entire backyard returned to a relaxed atmosphere.

Hodan was a god-level expert; with such a divine being present, everyone had been unable to drink freely.

"Everyone, it is rare for us all to gather here. Why don't we have a little spar?" Baruch had drunk quite a bit, his face slightly flushed, and he spoke loudly.

"That's a good suggestion. We have reached the Saint-level, but we rarely have the chance to exchange pointers. This is a good opportunity," Fain laughed.

"Since that's the case, let's have a go. But here, Baruch, aren't you afraid the aftermath of our clash will destroy your mansion?" Haydson looked at Baruch with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"That's simple. Wushan Town is close to the Magical Beast Mountain Range; let's head to the Magical Beast Mountain Range to spar!" Baruch said, then took the lead, flying into the air and heading toward the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

"Right here. There isn't a soul within thirty miles, so there's no need to worry about hurting anyone!" Baruch laughed.

Following that, everyone landed one after another.

This was a canyon with mountains on both sides, so the shockwaves would be blocked by the slopes. The distance between the mountains was about two kilometers, making it quite suitable for Saint-level experts to spar.

Although there might be some low-level magical beasts, they were already fleeing into the distance under the pressure of the Saint-level experts' auras.

"I, Desri, a Saint-level Grand Magus of Light, challenge you!" Desri was the first to challenge Kolan, his eyes flashing with intensity.

It was clear he wanted to make Kolan lose face.

"I, Kolan, a Saint-level Grand Magus of Life and Death, accept your challenge!" Kolan smiled faintly.

The two immediately flew into the air, while the others retreated, leaving the two in the center.

Kolan's lips moved slightly, and suddenly, ten peak Saint-level Undead Lifeforms appeared out of thin air, including Blood Specters, Black Knights, and Bone Dragons.

Refining the two Soul Gold Beads had allowed Kolan's soul power to grow significantly.

The stronger the soul, the more powerful the Undead Lifeforms one could contract in the Undead Realm.

If one were just an ordinary Saint-level Necromancer, the peak Saint-level Undead Lifeforms in the Undead Realm wouldn't even give you the time of day.

However, Kolan's powerful soul energy had allowed him to contract a total of ten peak Saint-level Undead Lifeforms over the years.

Seeing these Saint-level Undead Lifeforms radiating such powerful auras, the expressions of everyone present changed, and they couldn't help but look at Kolan with a trace of fear.

They had not expected the Saint-level Undead Lifeforms Kolan summoned to be so powerful.

"Attack, teach him a good lesson!" Kolan commanded.

Desri's expression was grim because he was surrounded by these ten Saint-level Undead Lifeforms, while Kolan remained outside, which meant he had to deal with these ten first.

But the auras of these Saint-level Undead Lifeforms were simply too strong.

Desri unleashed light-style magic, attempting to purify these Saint-level Undead Lifeforms.

However, it was night, so light-style magic was weakened. Furthermore, the spell he cast in his haste was only a ninth-rank light-style spell, which was incapable of purifying peak Saint-level Undead Lifeforms.

In just one exchange, Desri was defeated.

He was bruised and battered, held up by a Blood Specter gripping his throat.

Desri couldn't understand how there could be such powerful Undead Lifeforms.

Kolan, however, realized that the current Desri's strength was still a long way from the peak of the Saint-level.

"Saint Light Sanction!" Ernst couldn't help but intervene.

The Black Knight, clad in blood-colored armor, moved with incredible speed. With a single charge, a swing of his sword shattered the 'Saint Light Sanction'!

Having closed the distance, Ernst had no way to parry and was struck down to the ground by the Black Knight. The knight then pointed his sword at Ernst's throat, leaving him afraid to move.

Everyone wore an expression of disbelief; the two great Saint-level experts of the Radiant Church had been defeated just like that!?

One had to know that these two were Saint-level Grand Magi of Light with immense strength, and the light element was known for its speed, placing them at the pinnacle of the Saint-level.

Yet, in a single encounter, both had lost.

"The two of you, you have lost!" Kolan looked at the rather disheveled pair.

Afterward, Kolan let the Saint-level Undead Lifeform release the two of them.

They didn't really have any deep-seated hatred, and although the disgust in their eyes made him somewhat displeased, Kolan wasn't about to kill them over it.

"Kolan, how did you summon so many Saint-level Undead Lifeforms? And these Saint-level Undead Lifeforms are incredibly strong!" Haydson clicked his tongue in amazement.

Saint-level Necromancers rarely appeared on the Yulan Continent, so knowledge regarding an Undead Saint Magus was quite limited.

But this was simply too exaggerated.

Kolan smiled slightly: "This is the power of Necromancy!"

Kolan didn't offer any further explanation; after all, they weren't exactly close.

"Is there anyone else who wants to spar with me?" Kolan asked with a faint smile.

The other Saint-level experts shook their heads one after another. Many of them weren't even as strong as Desri or Kolan, so going up to spar would just be asking for a beating.

"Come, I'll do it!" Amanda said in a muffled, booming voice.

The Undying Warrior was famous for its powerful physical defense and immense strength, and because its recovery ability was truly astonishing, it was known as the 'Undying Warrior'!

Among the Four Ultimate Warriors, the Undying Warrior possessed the most powerful physical body and the greatest strength!

One could hear the constant 'hissing' sounds of muscles tearing as Amanda's entire body began to swell frantically, while the color of his skin began to change.

"Crackle, pop!"

Originally two point six or seven meters tall, Amanda's muscles bulged and his body grew larger. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a terrifyingly strong, four-meter-tall humanoid monster.

Amanda's entire skin turned a cyan-green color.

His muscular skin resembled solid rock, with immense power hidden within those protruding mounds of muscle.

Then, on the surface of his cyan-green muscular skin, armor resembling diamonds began to sprout, covering every part of his body except for his face, and Amanda even wore a helmet upon his head.

This so-called armor and helmet had grown directly out of his own body, a terrifying and bizarre sight!
