The Qingya Plane

Aier remembered that after obtaining the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood, Utrede, the Chief Sovereign of Destruction, had taken just a few hundred thousand years to develop the Four Divine Beasts' fused Innate Divine Ability, Space-Time Chaos.

The Four Divine Beasts Essence Blood Utrede had obtained from Beirut alone would not have been enough for him to complete that research.

So Aier suspected that before obtaining the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood, Utrede had probably used quite a few members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan for his research, and had already made considerable progress.

That was how he had managed to achieve results so quickly after obtaining the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood.

If even Utrede had done that, Aier felt that Ao Fu, the Fate Chief Sovereign, certainly couldn't have ignored the mysteries contained in the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' Innate Divine Abilities.

If they could research them, why couldn't Aier?

Moreover, compared with Utrede and Ao Fu, Aier had one enormous advantage—

The Equipment Slot!

Utrede and Ao Fu had both needed to wait for the Four Divine Beasts Overgods to die before they could obtain their essence blood.

But Aier only needed to capture and kill a few members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, then toss them into the Equipment Slot, and he could refine the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood.

At present, Aier's body had grown strong enough to rival a Godhead.

If he could refine the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood, the strengthening effect of that essence blood would take Aier's body's toughness to a whole new level, bringing it to the level of a Sovereign Artifact!

Furthermore, it might even be possible to refine the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' fused Innate Divine Ability from their Sovereign Essence Blood.

Of course, with the Four Divine Beasts Overgods still at the height of their power, Aier would have to act in secret. He couldn't let the Four Divine Beasts Clan find any evidence.

Putting aside his third plan, Aier didn't continue thinking about the Four Divine Beasts Clan.

After all, neither Aier's main body nor his Wind Element Divine Clone was here. Even if Aier obtained the corpses of Four Divine Beasts Clan members, he couldn't refine the Four Divine Beasts Overgods' essence blood from them—and he'd risk exposing himself.

Still, Aier made sure to remember the matter.

The Four Divine Beasts Overgods were almost all in Hell. In the future, Aier would inevitably have four Divine Clones at the Paragon level.

When that time came, Aier could send his other Divine Clones to capture members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan in other Divine Planes. That would ensure both secrecy and safety.

Blazing Flame Valley lay at the southernmost tip of Bifu Continent.

One of Hell's Plane Teleportation Arrays leading to other planes was located there.

When the Metal Lifeform carrying Aier appeared, it truly stunned the beings who had only just entered Hell from the Material Plane.

The way the Sovereign Legion soldiers had shouted at them and treated them as if they were nobodies—and the attitude they showed when speaking with Aier—also made it clear to them how far apart they were in status, position, and strength.

"Take me to the Qingya Plane!"

Without saying much to the people of the Bifu Legion, Aier handed a Space Ring to the squad leader and stepped onto the Plane Teleportation Array.

Hearing Aier's words, the Bifu Legion squad leader was taken aback.

The fee for using a Plane Teleportation Array was extremely expensive for ordinary people.

And that was only for travel between Divine Planes and Supreme Planes.

The fee for traveling from a Divine Plane or Supreme Plane to a Material Plane was ten thousand times greater.

Anyone who could afford the fee to travel to a Material Plane was a major figure, even in Hell.

So the squad leader didn't dare neglect him. After checking the dizzying amount of Inkstones in the Space Ring, he hurriedly replied, "Of course, sir. We'll activate the Plane Teleportation Array for you right away."

White light flashed. When Aier's vision returned, he was standing on a frozen plain.

Aier raised his hand slightly, and the space around him split into black cracks in response to his movement.

"What fragile space..."

Aier sighed.

After all, he hadn't even used divine power. The strength of his body alone had been enough to tear apart the space of the Qingya Plane.

"Looks like I'll have to get used to it."

"Otherwise, if I'm not careful and destroy this plane, who knows what might happen to the future of the Coiling Dragon Universe."

Aier wasn't speaking carelessly.

The Qingya Plane was actually the Yulan Plane.

It simply hadn't yet given rise to the Yulan Empire, so the beings who left the Qingya Plane hadn't named it "Yulan."

"Qingya" was the name of the largest and most powerful continent in this plane: the Qingya Continent.

The many powerful beings who left had named the plane after that continent.

Aier spread out his divine sense, and in an instant, it enveloped the entire Qingya Plane.

"Two Mid-Gods and six Low-Gods..."

"As for Saint Realm experts, there are quite a few—seventy-three."

In no time, Aier had picked up the auras of all the experts at the Saint Realm and above in the Qingya Plane.

Among them, the Mid-God aura closest to Aier was rapidly approaching his location.

Aier looked up, and a figure soon appeared in the sky.

In less than three minutes, the figure landed outside the Plane Teleportation Array, dropped to one knee, and addressed Aier respectfully. "Miles Reynolds pays his respects, sir."

"Reynalds?"

Aier raised an eyebrow. "Are you from the Reynalds Family of the Thunder Divine Plane?"

Although Aier had never visited the Thunder Divine Plane, as the Prefect of Liang'an Prefecture, he could still access intelligence from other planes.

He paid particular attention to the Eight Great Clans, who would eventually fight the Four Divine Beasts Clan to the death.

After all, if he wanted to avoid suspicion when taking the corpses of Four Divine Beasts Clan members, he naturally needed someone to take the blame.

Those eight clans would eventually fight the Four Divine Beasts Clan to the death not only because of the Overgods' intentions, but also because of the grudges they had accumulated with the Four Divine Beasts Clan over countless years.

Still, Aier hadn't expected that the Reynalds Family would already be the Plane Guardian of the Qingya Plane at this point in time.

It seemed that even an Overgod Envoy and the family he had founded weren't free; they had to serve their Overgod.

They maintained the balance of Material Planes and drove powerful beings out of them and into Divine Planes or Supreme Planes, allowing Material Planes to continuously provide the Overgods with Power of Faith...

Of course, perhaps Reynalds and the family he had founded considered it an honor to serve their Overgod.

"Yes, sir!"

Miles Reynolds' face paled even further.

As the Plane Guardian, Miles Reynolds naturally knew that anyone who could afford the fee to travel from a Divine Plane to a Material Plane was at least a powerful High-God.
