Liewen clearly felt that he had crossed a certain boundary.
That was the boundary between the Saint Realm and the god-level.
Although it would take another year or two for the fusion of the Profundity of Purification and the Mysteries of Light Element to reach the level of a Lowgod, Liewen had relied on the Mysteries of Light Element to reach the god-level.
Just a moment ago, he had experienced an epiphany and broken through the bottleneck of the "Light Element" mysteries, completely mastering this profundity.
And at this very instant.
A grand, soul-shaking power suddenly descended, completely enveloping Liewen.
The space around Liewen distorted, isolating him from the rest of the area, and his entire body began to float uncontrollably.
Is this the Laws of Heaven and Earth?
Liewen could sense that boundless, ancient, and peculiar power. In the face of this force, Liewen felt as insignificant as an ant.
As the Laws of Heaven and Earth descended, Liewen did not need to do anything.
A special power entered Liewen's mind, and all the laws and profundities he had comprehended were laid bare.
Above Liewen's head, the power of the laws and the elements of light gathered frantically.
After only a moment, the surging elements of heaven and earth dissipated, and a black crystal emitting a white radiance hovered above Liewen's head; it was a Lowgod Godspark of the light attribute.
This Godspark was formed based on Liewen's soul aura, and the moment it formed, it established a connection with Liewen's soul.
This was the benefit of becoming a god independently; refining someone else's Godspark would never allow the Godspark and the soul to achieve perfect compatibility.
After the Godspark formed, the Laws of Heaven and Earth gave Liewen a choice: whether to keep the Godspark outside his body or inside it.
If the Godspark remained outside the body, the Laws of Heaven and Earth would condense a Divine Body of Light for Liewen, and his soul would split in two—half remaining in his original body, and half in the Divine Body of Light.
While the weakening of the soul had a huge impact, the benefit was gaining an extra life, as well as the ability to continue cultivating other laws and rules.
If the Godspark remained inside the body, the Laws of Heaven and Earth would transform his body into a divine body. From then on, he would only be able to cultivate the Laws of Light, but his soul would not be weakened, and his insights into the Laws of Light would become even clearer.
Liewen was already very clear on the differences between the two choices, and without hesitation, he chose to become a god with the Godspark outside his body.
Once Liewen made his choice, he felt an intense pain deep within his soul, and the muscles throughout his body began to twitch and spasm.
Under the influence of the Laws of Heaven and Earth, his spherical soul let out a "bang" and split into two, becoming two smaller spheres.
Of the two spherical souls, one remained in Liewen's mind, while the other flew out of his body and merged into the Godspark.
Then, endless Divine Power of Light centered on the light-attribute Godspark and condensed into a divine body.
The divine body wore white robes and looked exactly like Liewen, except his hair had turned silver-white.
Once the divine body finished condensing, the special power of the Laws of Heaven and Earth vanished, and Liewen officially became a Lowgod of the light element.
"This feeling is truly marvelous."
The two "Liewens" looked at each other, but they shared a single consciousness, much like looking into a mirror.
With a thought from Liewen, the Divine Body of Light merged into Liewen's body.
At the same time, inside his mind, next to the spherical soul, there was now an additional Liewen in white robes sitting cross-legged.
Liewen circulated the Divine Power of Light, and as the divine power merged into his flesh and blood, his already powerful body rose to another level, though it still could not reach the durability of a Lowgod Artifact.
When the Laws of Heaven and Earth descended.
The three god-level powerhouses fighting in the air also stopped.
"Someone has become a god?"
All three were startled; they all understood what the descent of the Laws of Heaven and Earth meant.
When they saw that the person who had become a god was Liewen, the expressions of the three differed. The High Priest and the War God were fine, merely a bit surprised.
Lolita, however, had an expression that was ugly to the extreme.
Liewen becoming a god meant that it was impossible for her to kill him today.
The High Priest and the War God working together were already enough to hold her off.
Once Liewen joined the battle after becoming a god, she would be the one at a disadvantage.
Lolita looked unwillingly at Liewen, who was floating under the influence of the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
Now, even a sneak attack would be useless.
When becoming a god, one is protected by the Laws of Heaven and Earth and is essentially unkillable.
After all, even the splitting of the soul caused no harm, let alone other injuries.
"Hmph, once I obtain a Midgod Godspark from the Necropolis of the Gods, you will all die!"
Lolita shot a hateful glare at Liewen and the others, then turned into a stream of light and flew toward the horizon.
The Necropolis of the Gods was about to open, and since she had no chance of winning, she did not want to waste time fighting here.
The High Priest and the War God struck simultaneously, wanting to intercept her.
Since they had already become enemies, they did not want to let the tiger return to the mountains; they both wanted to kill Lolita right here.
"You want to kill me?"
Lolita's gaze turned icy as a massive phantom suddenly appeared behind her, taking the shape of a giant black spider.
"Innate Divine Ability!"
The High Priest and the War God both changed expressions; they had not expected Lolita to be a divine beast.
Divine beasts, along with those possessing the bloodline of a divine beast, would possess an innate divine ability.
The High Priest and the War God did not know the effects of Lolita's innate divine ability, so they retreated simultaneously, remaining on guard.
The black spider phantom opened its mandibles, releasing a fan-shaped ripple that instantly submerged into the bodies of the High Priest and the War God.
It was a Soul Attack!
The High Priest recovered quickly, while the War God took a moment longer.
Taking advantage of this opening, Lolita had already fled to the distant horizon.
The High Priest and the War God exchanged glances, lingering fear in their eyes.
They had not expected Lolita to have such a hidden card.
During their previous exchange, if Lolita had found the right moment to unleash her innate divine ability, they likely would have been severely injured or even perished.
The two had assumed that after Liewen broke through, the three of them joining forces could kill Lolita, but now it seemed that if Lolita were pushed to the brink, a desperate struggle might result in one of them losing their life.
The Laws of Heaven and Earth dissipated, and the High Priest and the War God composed themselves, using their divine sense to congratulate Liewen.
"Congratulations, Liewen."
"High Priest, War God, Liewen will keep today's kindness in his heart," Liewen responded via divine sense.
If the High Priest and the War God had not intervened today, he would have already died at Lolita's hands.
"I did it for my own sake as well."
The War God spoke calmly, glanced at the High Priest, and continued, "Since everything is fine, I will be taking my leave."
The War God transformed into a streak of fire and vanished into the northern horizon.
"Liewen, you have just broken through, so take some time to experience the realm of a god. Lolita's strength is formidable; you must be more careful in the future," the High Priest said.
"I understand."
Liewen had witnessed the entire battle, and he knew clearly that even joining forces with the High Priest and the War God, killing Lolita would not be easy.
No rush, time is on my side. Liewen had confidence in his own potential.
The High Priest returned to the Forest of Life, and Liewen descended from the sky.
"Liewen, congratulations." Master Longers congratulated Liewen, and Lena and Kuhn returned as well.
After chatting for a while, Master Longers took his leave, and Liewen returned to his room to experience the changes after becoming a god.
The most obvious change was that his soul had become much weaker.
Splitting the soul caused immense damage, and his comprehension and deduction of the laws would be slowed down several times over.
I can only wait to recover using a Soul Golden Pearl later, Liewen thought to himself.
Experts who practiced the Death Law could refine the souls of ordinary people into Soul Golden Pearls, and those who practiced other laws or rules could also increase their soul strength by absorbing them.
Soul Golden Pearls were rare in the Yulan Continent, but in higher planes like Hell, they were quite common; as long as you could afford the price, you could buy them.
It was precisely for this reason that Liewen had chosen to split his soul without hesitation.
Although his soul was much weaker, his Light God Clone could sense the mysteries of the Laws of Light much more clearly than before he became a god, though the cost was that the Light God Clone could no longer sense other laws or rules.
The Light God Clone could only practice the Laws of Light.
From now on, the Light God Clone will practice the Laws of Light, and my original body will practice the Rules of Fate, Liewen decided.
When he practiced the Fate Law, he discovered that his talent for the Rules of Fate was also quite good, not at all inferior to the Laws of Light.
He wanted to cultivate a Fate God Clone; once he did, he would possess two Lowgod clones and would no longer have to worry about Lolita.
