Upper God Strength

By using the Light and Darkness divine clones together, not only could he utilize fused divine power, but also fused laws. Once the fused divine power was unleashed, he should be comparable to an average Demigod.

One must know that the original Olivier, having just broken through, could only rival the peak of the Saint-level relying on divine power fusion.

Adding the fusion of the profound mysteries of the Laws of Light and the Laws of Darkness—two different, heterogeneous laws—is equivalent to fusing three profound mysteries of the same law. If fusing one profound mystery makes one ten times stronger, then this is a hundred times more powerful, Olivier thought.

At this moment, his divine clones were far superior to the original Olivier in every aspect, whether it was fused divine power, soul strength, or the application of the profound mysteries of the laws.

My goodness!

At the very least, I can rival an ordinary Highgod, or perhaps even a Highgod who has fused two laws. Of course, this is only from an offensive standpoint; my defense might not be on par with a Highgod.

His original body could also use fused divine power and the fused profound mysteries of the laws. Strengthened by the mysterious energy, his original body was even more powerful than his divine clones, so he could rival the combined strength of both divine clones in both defense and offense.

My defense is weaker than a Highgod who has fused two laws, but such a Highgod would certainly not care about a Demigod. If I launch a sneak attack, I would surely win, but I cannot engage in a head-on confrontation. In a direct clash, I might be able to challenge an ordinary Highgod, Olivier thought, gaining a clear understanding of his own strength.

The combat power of two Highgods. Haha.

Olivier laughed heartily.

I am a soul mutant, having comprehended and fused two heterogeneous profound mysteries of the laws right after breaking through to the Demigod level—unprecedented. Haha, this feels great.

His mood was better than it had ever been.

Low profile, stay low profile. Unless absolutely necessary, I will only display the strength of an ordinary soul-mutated Demigod.

One could not blame Olivier for being cautious. Many soul mutants could not even fuse two heterogeneous profound mysteries of the laws. If it were known that he could perfectly fuse heterogeneous laws upon reaching the Demigod level, that old fellow Beirut might just have a whim and soul-enslave him, which would be the end of everything.

It has been over two years. My goal has been achieved; it is time to leave.

For over two years, Olivier had not left this secret chamber for even a moment.

This is a great place for cultivation. With the strength of my original body, there is no danger on the Yulan Continent now. I will leave the Light and Darkness divine clones here to cultivate.

With a thought, two Oliviers—one black and one white—appeared in the secret chamber.

At this point, the air currents generated by the spatial turbulence at the entrance of the chamber could no longer cause Olivier any harm, and with a single step, he appeared outside.

So many magic crystals, and quite a few that rival level-nine magic cores. I will dig up a few to trade for some wine and food money. Having too many is useless to me anyway.

Olivier casually dug up a few pieces and placed them into his interspatial ring.

The people of the Baruch Kingdom haven't discovered this place yet. According to the flow of events, they will discover it sooner or later. I might as well tell Linley and let him owe me a favor. Haha, and I promised that kid Taylor that I would take him to see his uncle; this is the perfect time for a trip.

In an instant, Olivier had a plan.

Since this was the territory of the Baruch Kingdom anyway, using their own resources to earn a favor was a very cost-effective deal. If he waited for Linley and the others to discover the magic crystal mine and the secret chamber themselves, it would seem as if Olivier had snatched Linley's territory. Telling him now would bring many benefits.

I wonder how Sophie and Jessica are doing.

During these two years of cultivation, he had been able to focus without distraction, but he still felt some longing; they were the two people closest to him in this world.

I wonder if that kid Blumer has managed to give me a niece or nephew yet.

Thinking of his younger brother, Olivier felt a warmth in his heart.

On Black Crow Mountain.

Linley was fishing. Although he was sitting still, merging with nature, as the breeze blew, his figure possessed a trace of the elegance of the wind, as if he were moving with it.

In reality, he was not.

Bebe was dozing off on a rock in the distance.

Suddenly, Linley and Bebe opened their eyes at the same time and looked toward the horizon, seeing Olivier stepping through the clouds toward them.

This was because Olivier had intentionally released a trace of his aura; otherwise, even if he were right in front of them, Linley and Bebe would not have been able to detect him after his breakthrough to the God-level.

"Linley, Bebe, it has been two years. I hope you have been well."

Olivier greeted them with a smile.

"Olivier, you have broken through?"

Linley asked in surprise.

The aura Olivier had just emitted was even more unfathomable than when he had come two years ago—it was the same kind of God-level aura Linley had felt from Cesar.

Olivier nodded.

"Olivier, are you at the God-level?"

Bebe's eyes widened in surprise. In his view, his boss Linley was the most formidable genius.

"Too monstrous," Bebe muttered.

"Bebe," Linley called out to him.

Olivier was now at the God-level, and Linley felt he should be more careful with his words. He knew that the gap between a God-level expert and a Saint-level was like heaven and earth, and Linley did not want to displease Olivier.

"Olivier, oh, no, Lord Olivier," Linley felt that calling him 'Lord' was more appropriate.

"Linley, just call me Olivier. You will break through sooner or later as well."

Hearing the future controller call him 'Lord' felt good to Olivier, but it also felt a bit distant.

"I have prepared a generous gift for you this time."

Olivier then told Linley about the magic crystal mine and the secret space chamber, also mentioning that his divine clone was currently cultivating inside that chamber.

"Linley, I happen to be heading to the imperial capital of the Yulan Empire. I promised that kid Taylor last time that I'd take him to see his uncle."

Olivier said to Linley.

At the mention of this, Linley remembered as well; he hadn't expected Olivier to actually keep a promise made to a child.

"No problem. Taylor is at the royal palace. Let's head over there in a moment."

Linley replied.

After all, Olivier was a Deity-level expert now. Linley knew that for someone as arrogant as him, he would never care about a passing remark made to a child unless he truly liked them.

Linley felt that, both reasonably and sentimentally, he should agree to this, as it could help maintain a good relationship with a Deity-level expert.

"Boss, can I go too? Look, I've never even been to the imperial capital of the Yulan Empire."

Bebe said, looking pitiful.

He didn't enjoy cultivation; he usually spent his time napping or playing with magical beasts in the Dark Forest, and he was long since bored of staying here.

"Fine. You can bring Taylor back when the time comes."

Linley agreed.

With Taylor away from home, Olivier couldn't watch him every second, so it would be more reassuring to have Bebe accompany him.

"Great, mission guaranteed! Boss, you're the best!"

Bebe cheered.

"Let's go, let's head to the royal palace."

Bebe said impatiently.

"Bebe, are you really that eager to get away from me?"

Linley feigned anger.

"Haha~"

Olivier laughed.

If this were his past life, this man and beast would surely be suspected of having a bromance.
