The Controller Makes His Move? Supreme Artifacts

"Great, Supreme God of Life, I hope..."

Ren tried several other approaches, including Soul Mutation, creating a new clone, or using soul fragments to enhance his talents, but all of them failed.

After a long while, Ren couldn't help but sigh. He seemed to understand now why, in the previous six Overgod Mission, the other Overlord all wanted the Supreme Artifact.

The Overgod Mission sounds incredibly lofty, but it actually has many limitations. Although the Four Overgods are above the Overgod, they are manifestations of the rules. They will not violate the rules. Within the rules, what the Overgod can do is actually very limited.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. With Oufu's single-minded idea of breaking through the heavens and earth, he ultimately completed three Overgod Mission, but all he wanted were Supreme Artifact. This shows that his attempt to break through the heavens and earth through the Overgod failed.

"Great Supreme God of Life, I wish to obtain the three Supreme Artifacts: material defense, soul defense, and attack."

Ren took a deep breath and made one last attempt. Once he obtained the three Supreme Artifacts, he would immediately become an invincible being in the Coiling Dragon Universe.

"I'm sorry, I cannot fulfill your request. After completing the Overgod Mission, you can only choose one Supreme Artifact!"

This time, the voice of the Supreme God of Life remained indifferent. Although it was a manifestation of the rules, Ren vaguely sensed a trace of impatience.

"Can I only choose one Supreme Artifact?"

This time, Ren did not answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Offensive Supreme Artifact can be ruled out first. Life-attribute offensive Supreme Artifact are only most effective against Life Overlord. For Ren, they would only increase combat power tenfold, which is similar to a Sovereign Spark and has little effect.

If Ren wanted, he could have his two clones refine Low-Sovereign at any time, directly gaining a hundredfold increase in power. A Supreme Artifact with mismatched attributes would only provide a limited boost to his strength.

Unlike Ren, whose Supreme Fate God Sword Augusta was essentially a cover, Augusta one who truly wielded that sword was Oufu.

Choosing the Supreme Artifact is a bit more difficult, since Uterede and Oufu respectively Controller the strongest soul attack in the Coiling Dragon Universe — Space-Time Chaos, and the strongest material attack in the Coiling Dragon Universe — Transcending Samsara.

Although neither of their special techniques are yet perfected, Ren couldn't guarantee that Uterede wouldn't be able to figure out the Space-Time Chaos without his life essence.

It's even harder to say about Oufu. As Bula Clan, his potential is terrifying. Even without the Space-Time Chaos and without thinking about Buleile's magic circle, Ren doesn't think Of Oufu stay stuck at this bottleneck forever.

Given Oufu's research capabilities, one day he might be able to perfect his ultimate move through his own methods and truly unleash a technique that Transcending Samsara.

"Let's choose physical defense! For me, it's the best option."

After pondering for a while, Ren made up his mind to choose the Supreme Artifact of material defense.

Ren's Overlord Avatar was already Dual-Element Paragon, receiving two bonuses of Willpower, which is one more Willpower than an ordinary Paragon Sovereign. If the Wind and Fire Clone were to refine the Sovereign Spark as well, they would have three more Willpower than Paragon Sovereign.

By then, Ren's Willpower greater Oufu, and his soul defense will definitely be the strongest in the Coiling Dragon Universe. Even if he faces Uterede's Space-Time Chaos, he may still have a fighting chance.

However, without Supreme Artifact for material defense, it would be impossible to fight against Oufu's Transcending Samsara. Even Linley, Mysteries fused with the profound mysteries of alien laws and gained two additional Willpower, could not withstand it. If he had not ultimately become the Controller, he would have undoubtedly died.

"Great, Supreme God of Life, I choose... um?"

Just as Ren was about to ask for a Supreme Artifact of material defense, an unexpected change occurred.

Time seemed to Stasis across the entire plane. Everything ceased to move; even the slightest airflow stopped. On the sea, the flow of life was stilled, and on the continent, life itself was frozen in place.

Ren's open mouth was also frozen in place. He couldn't finish what he wanted to say, his body was controlled by a strange force, and he couldn't move. The only thing that could still react was Ren's thoughts.

"What, what is this? What happened? What was that just now? Time? Space? Or something else?"

Ren's thoughts instantly became chaotic, and he was caught in a mental storm, with all sorts of possible guesses popping into his head.

At this moment, the Supreme God of Life, which had previously been devoid of any emotion, stirred. A hint of doubt seemed to flash in its calm eyes, and it transformed into a being with its own thoughts.

"Strange, strange."

The eyes of the Supreme God of Life looked at Ren, and at this moment, it seemed to see through everything within him, from the Divine Clone to the magic circle; any concealment was futile.

"This is... the Hongmeng Controller?"

Ren's thoughts stopped instantly as he stared intently at the "Supreme God of Life." As someone with memories of Blue Star, he knew very well that the Supreme God of Life at this moment was probably the Hongmeng Controller.

It's unclear how much time passed—perhaps an instant, perhaps a long time—but the world returned to its peaceful state, and the expression of the Supreme God of Life returned to normal.

However, two items appeared in the hands of the Supreme God of Life: a ring radiating the power of the soul, and a suit of armor engraved with green patterns like dazzling stars.

"This is a Supreme Artifact for material defense and a Supreme Artifact for soul defense; only those who have reached the level of Overgod can use them."

The Supreme God of Life waved his hand, and two Supreme Artifact radiating powerful life energy slowly floated in front of Ren.

"Ren, I have fulfilled your request!"

After the words of the Supreme God of Life fell, the emerald green figure vanished instantly without a trace, as if she had never existed. Only the two floating Supreme Artifact proved that she had been there.

"That was the Controller just now. He noticed me, which means that my detached thinking is probably correct."

Ren smiled, the first genuine smile he had shown since arriving in the Coiling Dragon Universe.

Although the Hongmeng Controller didn't say much, his appearance itself is proof that the path Ren is currently on is the right one.

"Two Supreme Artifact? In that case, no one in the entire universe can kill me. Next, all I need to do is continue my research until..."

Ren raised his head, his eyes looking into the void, as if across the Spatial Turbulence, at that figure in the Hongmeng space.
