Ren and Bayer
"Alright! Liang'an Prefecture on the Bifu Continent, right? Let's go!"
Bayer took a deep breath, slowly calming himself down. Then, without any hesitation, he spoke and his figure transformed into a streak of blue light, instantly rushing out of Wind-Blood Castle.
"Mr. Bayer, wait a moment!"
Behind Aolarowell, a cluster of emerald green wings radiating life energy slowly emerged and chased after the direction where Bayer had disappeared at top speed.
Even though Bayer wasn't flying at full speed to wait for him, Aolarowell still felt a slight strain.
"As expected of a Wind Element Paragon, this speed is something I couldn't catch even if I tried my hardest. But isn't this a bit exaggerated, Mr. Bayer? Is it really necessary to be in such a hurry?"
Aolarowell gave a wry smile to himself; he had underestimated the impact of this incident on Bayer.
Throughout the entire Divine Plane, for countless years, Bayer has been the only Paragon High-God.
From the outside, there may be several powerful beings who appear to be at the Paragon of the Wind Element, but Bayer knows that he is the only true Paragon expert. The others are either avatars of the Overgod who have ventured out, or some special life forms.
Therefore, Bayer had never fought against another being at the Paragon of the Wind element, a fact that was also true for other Paragon High-God.
Fighting a Paragon of the same kind and a Perfected being of different laws is a completely different experience. Paragon do indeed have no weaknesses, but that does not mean that Paragon are the same.
Different Paragon each have their own area of expertise. The Death Paragon, Dannington, excels in soul control. Although his physical attacks are also quite strong, he is still somewhat inferior when directly clashing with the physical attack techniques of a Wind Paragon master.
Bayer had sparred with many Paragon, and each of them had their own insights. His favorite battles were with Ninisha, Lightning Paragon, and Bamer, Fire Grand Perfection.
Lightning and fire, like wind, are powerful in physical attacks, so their sparring is a clash of the strongest forces, which is very helpful for personal enlightenment.
In contrast, the battle between Bayer and Magnus, Dannington, felt somewhat uncomfortable because it was a clash between someone skilled in matter and someone skilled in the soul, a battle where strengths were used to avoid weaknesses. In Heimosi's words, it wasn't a satisfying fight.
On the Bifu Continent, in Liang'an Prefecture, within the Tamojin Lake, the lake water has returned to its golden state, flowing continuously.
"The Four Divine Beasts Clan are extinct? That's right, without Beirut's interference, this is the fate they deserved."
Ren sat in his underwater palace in Tamojin Lake, listening to news from the Blood Peak Continent. He sighed slightly, then felt relieved.
The Four Divine Beasts Clan was able to survive for many years in the memories of Blue Star, engaging in a war of attrition with the Eight Great Clans, ultimately because of the protection of the Overgod Beirut.
Now, not to mention that Beirut is his subordinate, even if Beirut really becomes Overgod, he wouldn't dare to protect the Four Divine Beasts Clan, because the Four Divine Beasts Clan has offended him, the Water Overlord.
"However, the disappearance of the Four Divine Beasts Clan means that Linley can no longer Water Divine Clone through the Dragon Transformation Dragon Transformation Pool, and he can no longer transform into Four-Element Soul Mutation. So, can he still transcend... What am I thinking? Whether Linley will even be born is now a question mark."
After his thoughts wandered for a while, Ren couldn't help but shake his head.
However, what Ren didn't notice was that at this time, a seemingly ordinary but significant event was happening on the Yulan Continent.
Beyond the Arctic Icefield of the Yulan Continent, above the North Sea, numerous spatial rifts radiate a seven-colored light.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, an antique-looking black ring flew in, arcing strangely as it plunged into the sea and began to drift with the ocean currents.
The ring's surface is engraved with a worm-like creature. However, this seemingly ordinary ring can survive in the Spatial Turbulence where even Highgod cannot linger for long, clearly indicating that its material is very special.
The Sovereign Artifact, the Azure Dragon Ring, drifted along the ocean. At its current rate, perhaps one day it will drift onto the mainland and be obtained by someone.
"Boom!"
In Liang'an City, ten thousand meters above the sky, a violent azure current tore through space, and a powerful tornado swept across the entire Tamojin Lake, where a phantom hidden within descended.
"Ren!"
A clear, crisp sound echoed throughout the valley, and a figure dressed in a long robe with white eyebrows and white hair slowly appeared. After uttering the name of Ren, the figure stopped in mid-air.
"Who is that person? How dare they address the Prefect by his given name?"
"Are you out of your mind? That's Mr. Bayer, don't you even know that?"
Upon sensing the fluctuations from the sky, numerous figures instantly flew out from Liang'an City, discussing the figures in the sky.
Since Ren became Paragon High-God, Liang'an City has become more than ten times more lively than before, and some Prefect from other Divine Plane have also begun to travel and visit the surrounding area.
After all, while it wasn't the first time Paragon High-God had publicly revealed his residence, it was still extremely rare. Therefore, people naturally flocked to him requesting a visit, with most coming hoping for the best.
At this moment, a daring person suddenly called out Ren's name high in the sky, which naturally shocked many people. After all, the last person to do this was the patriarch of the Azure Dragon Clan of the Four Divine Beasts Clan, Gaiseresen, who was beaten badly by Lord Ren.
However, some people were more knowledgeable and recognized the figure in the sky, instantly sensing that something big was about to happen.
"Good heavens, Wind-Blood Fiend Bayer has arrived. Could he be here to challenge Lord Ren?"
"A duel between Paragon High-God of the Wind Element? Could it be that I'll witness a battle between Paragon High-God today?"
In an instant, more than a dozen figures shot into the sky from the crowd and stopped more than a thousand miles away from Bayer.
If a battle Paragon High-God were to break out today, they could simply record the Floating Projection at close range and sell them to the Fiend Castle for an astronomical price, enough to ensure a worry-free life.
The promise of a great reward always attracts brave men. Even knowing that the slightest aftershock of a battle Paragon High-God would be enough to kill them, some reckless individuals still rushed out.
Bayer, standing in the void, paid no attention to these people. Everyone must be responsible for their own choices. If you want to record the Floating Projection, you must be prepared to die. At this moment Bayer simply gazed at the calm lake.
"Whoosh!"
The figure of the black-haired youth rose from the lake in an instant. His light blue robe emitted dizzying ripples, and white air currents swirled around his body, instantly stopping the raging winds around him.
"Bayer!"
Ren's figure slowly appeared in front of Bayer, a hint of surprise showing in his starry eyes.
