Plane Reshuffle
In the Tara Plane, after the departure of the three Mid-level God, the number of God Level powerhouses has dwindled even further.
For a time, it was impossible to find more than three or five God Level powerhouses in the vast Tara Plane. The remaining God Level powerhouses were all the kind who kept to themselves and rarely showed their faces.
Thus began the era in which the Saint Domain held power in the Tara Plane.
The Light Empire left behind not a single God Level powerhouse; it was directly disintegrated into countless small countries.
The Magic Beast also split into countless smaller factions.
However, the Osiris Empire did not dissolve. The Low-level God of the Osiris Family had already left with all the other Low-level God when they went to the Divine Plane.
Osiris tacitly accepted his departure; at that time, the future was uncertain, and leaving a glimmer of hope for the Osiris Family was acceptable.
Now Osiris is gone too.
The royal family no longer has any God Level experts; all the other God Level experts have fled.
The Osiris Empire was on the verge of collapse.
However, Richard sent Hogg to take over the entire Osiris Empire.
It was only then that the various forces realized that the Hegel Family had quietly produced two God Level powerhouses.
In this era when the gods have departed, a Low-level God is enough to seize control of the previously vast Osiris Empire.
Many forces within the Osiris Empire have dealt with Hogg, the new God Level powerhouse.
After Richard relinquished power, Hegel Hogg a long time.
So they were really familiar with Hogg.
Hogg wasn't even at the Peak Saint Domain before, and he hadn't even scratched the surface of the Law Profound Mysteries. How could someone like Hogg become a god?
If it weren't for the fact that Refine Divine Spark to become gods, they would have swallowed the invitations in their hands.
In the Tara Plane, since there have been many God Level powerhouses throughout history, and their deaths in battles are commonplace, any power with a bit of foundation knows the path of Refine Divine Spark to become a god.
It's just that Godhead are hard to find.
The members of the Saint Domain were incredibly envious of Hogg, wondering what kind of incredible luck he had to acquire a Godhead.
They also knew that it was most likely obtained and bestowed upon him by Richard, a God Level powerhouse.
I can only envy this guy for having such a good background.
I wonder where this guy hid after becoming a god, how come he wasn't discovered by those God Level powerhouses?
It seems the Hegel Family is hiding quite a secret.
But now that the Mid-level God have all left, the Hegel Family, which possesses two God Level powerhouses, has become the undisputed number one family in the Tara Plane.
The Osiris Family is a thing of the past; the Hegel Family has officially announced its takeover of the Osiris Empire.
All the major powers submitted to the Hegel Family.
However, the Hegel Family did not completely exterminate the Osiris Family.
This isn't a world without extraordinary abilities; everyone has well-established Rules for competition.
In a world where strength reigns supreme, the Osiris Family, currently lacking in power, would naturally not be so tactless as to cling to their position. Wouldn't that be forcing the Hegel Family to exterminate them?
When the Osiris Family or another family surpasses the Hegel Family in the future, the Hegel Family will have to relinquish its position.
This is also an unspoken understanding among the various factions in the Tara Plane.
In most cases, once a nation declines, it is very difficult to regain its former glory. If it makes a major strategic mistake or produces a few spendthrift sons, it may collapse completely in a short period of time and never recover.
Throughout Tara's history, too many once-glorious families have declined and disappeared into the annals of history.
The landmark node here is the Saint Domain. If a major power no longer has a Saint Domain, then it will have almost no say in anything.
The Osiris Family is doing alright. Although they no longer have God Level expert, they have accumulated quite a few Saint Domain experts over the years as the rulers of the Osiris Empire. There are about ten openly known Saint-level experts, and one at the Saint Domain Limit.
How much more is involved in secret, nobody knows.
In this era where God Level powerhouses have basically disappeared, Osiris still has a considerable fortune.
They've only lost their royal status; even if they return to their traditional territory, they can still have a promising future.
Meanwhile, the Hegel Family forcefully established themselves in the capital. A large area where the capital was located automatically came under the Hegel Family's control.
In addition to the territories ceded by other forces that declined during this event, the Hegel Family's territory has now increased dozens or even hundreds of times.
There's also a small continent overseas. We originally planned to take it over once the family had more manpower, but now we're lucky we don't need to ask them for manpower.
Their current problem is a lack of manpower; the only Saint Domain Saint Domain left in the family are Della and a few newly recruited ones.
They don't even have the Saint Domain Limit. It's only because the Hegel Family now has two God Level powerhouses that no one dares to provoke them.
Richard even called Cain and Salami back. "The family is short-handed right now, so you two shouldn't be staying out here."
Kailina didn't object to this; in fact, she was eager for the two of them to come back as soon as possible.
Although she was far away on the Scarborough Continent, she received the news of Hogg's ascension to godhood, and she also knew that the previous Hogg was just an ordinary Saint Domain cultivator who hadn't even grasped the profound mysteries of the Law Profound Mysteries.
Although Hogg is Richard's grandson, it's normal for him to receive good things from him.
But Hogg could be granted Godhead, who knows if Richard still Godhead any? What if he does?
Cain and Salami shouldn't go back and show their abilities now; do they still want Godhead?
As for Kailina herself, she had no desire for power and preferred to live in seclusion and cultivate alone, so she didn't get involved.
If she really wanted to seize power and profit, in this era, it wouldn't be a problem for her to occupy a large continent left behind by the Mid-level God.
And so, Richard released many of his Saint Domain Magical Beast, which just made up his manpower.
As for the Soul Beast subordinates he had taken in, he dared not release any creatures from other worlds.
It's still unknown what Hongmeng's attitude towards me is.
He didn't know if Hongmeng had discovered him yet. He had used abilities from other worlds before, such as the Nine-Tomoe Rinne-Sharingan and the God Tree.
But since the Hongmeng expert hasn't shown up, let's just pretend he doesn't know.
In that case, he should remain hidden for as long as possible, and it would be best to wait until he is qualified to stand on equal footing with the Hongmeng bigwigs before making a move.
However, there is still a Mid-level God in the Tara Plane at this time, Plane Overseer, Steven, is also interested in the Hegel Family.
He was also curious about where Hogg had hidden after becoming a god. How come the Mid-level God had searched the entire world several times, and the High-level God Philias had also searched the entire plane several times, yet they still hadn't found him?
But he dared not go to ask, fearing that the secret of the Hegel Family was related to the mysterious powerful figure who defeated Philias.
Although that person has been silent since the battle with Philias, he is certainly still living in seclusion somewhere.
He had secretly gone to the battlefield to observe, hoping that if the two sides perished together, he could perhaps pick up some scraps. Given his status Plane Overseer of the plane, even if he were discovered, he would most likely not be killed, at most receiving a beating.
Compared to the potential returns, this risk is worth taking.
To my surprise, there was nothing there; clearly, someone had cleaned up the battlefield after the war. It couldn't possibly have been a mutual kill.
So he sneaked back again.
Therefore, he was certain that the person was still alive.
Forget it, I'll test the Hegel Family another time. I don't even know if their secrets will be useful to me, so it's not worth risking everything for something completely uncertain.
Richard had no time to pay attention to such trivial matters as the expansion of his family's power, and he was even unaware that the Plane Overseer also had some designs on his family.
In his heart, his own strength is always the most important thing; everything else is Xi Zhi.
This operation against Philias carried minimal risk, yielded substantial results, and generated enormous profits.
He obtained five High-level Godhead items alone. Two of them were contributed by Philias' two Divine Clone.
Two more were retrieved from the Spatial Turbulence; these were likely spoils of war from Philias's time in the Plane Prison. His Life Divine Clone, also had one in his Space Ring.
There are dozens of Mid-level God, basically covering all systems, except for the Laws of Fate. Strong individuals in this system are indeed quite rare.
There were hundreds of Low-level Godhead, and some were even swept away by the Spatial Turbulence; Richard didn't manage to retrieve any.
Philias has been in the Plane Prison for so long, and he has killed quite a few God Level powerhouses.
As for Divine Artifact, there are dozens of usable High-level Divine Artifact, most of which are Material Attack Divine Artifact, and only a handful of Material Defense Divine Artifact, not even enough for Richard's main body and his Divine Clone to each have one.
Richard couldn't understand why this guy had so few superior Material Defense Divine Artifact.
That's because he didn't know how Philias got out of the Plane Prison. He thought that this guy had also discovered the weakness in the sealing Magic Array and escaped directly from the connection between the two dimensions.
They had no idea that this ruthless person had actually chosen to gamble with his life, enduring a short stretch of Spatial Turbulence before returning to the Tara Plane.
Therefore, most of that guy's superior Material Defense Divine Artifact were destroyed on their way back from the Spatial Turbulence.
The remaining items were damaged by Richard during the battle.
There are still a dozen or so broken pieces, damaged when they fell into the Spatial Turbulence. He can only wait until he becomes High-level God to find a way to repair them. It will save him a lot of time than to nurture a new High-level Divine Artifact himself.
As for the lower Low-level Divine Artifact, they were piled up like mountains, all of which were discovered in the Space Ring of Philias's Life Divine Clone.
These are probably this guy's spoils of war, since there's a variety of attributes among these Divine Artifact.
There aren't many resources, just some unique resources produced by the Plane Prison, many of which are not found in the Tara Plane, and some are even top-tier.
As for various inheritances, magical books, magic circles, and the like, they are even more profound than what Richard has collected. Although they are not as extensive in breadth, they are definitely deep enough.
Philias was, after all, a powerful being among the High-level God, and the density of powerful beings in the Plane Prison was far higher than in the Tara Plane. There were quite a few High-level God among them, so it was inevitable that they surpassed the Tara Plane in the depth of their research into the Law Profound Mysteries.
In other words, the harsh living environment of the Plane Prison, lacking many plant-based elixirs and common minerals, is why its scope in Alchemical Domain cannot compare to that of the Tara Plane.
Now everything has become Richard's spoils of war, and Richard has also gained some understanding of the Plane Prison through these books.
Within the territory, there are Four Sovereigns rule vast territories, and several other powerful figures who live in seclusion and have not established any power bases.
Or like Philias, who was unwilling to stay in one place and wandered around.
In short, it's quite chaotic inside. The living conditions are harsh, and the competition is fierce.
Low-level God face immense pressure to survive; they can't even find a powerful force to join them, and are forced to live on the margins of society, constantly on the run, seeking refuge in groups, and frequently becoming targets for others.
Things get a little better once you reach the Mid-level God. But it's still best to find a faction to serve, otherwise you might get killed by a High-level God while walking down the street.
As for the Saint Domain, if no one protects them, they are simply food.
