After the Augusta Clan’s attack ended in failure, Olivier reunited with Catherine and Victoria at a mountain village and settled there to prepare for the Soul Spirit Fruit. He tested the Taiji Diagram with various items and discovered that it was absorbing Divine Beast Essence Blood.

• Sven blamed Chekhovs for the failed attack and resolved to test Olivier’s strength himself.

• Olivier placed more than a hundred Angel Hearts and Fallen Angel Hearts in the Taiji Diagram as he prepared for the battle over the Soul Spirit Fruit ten years later.
• Olivier put various items from his interspatial ring into the Taiji Space and saw it absorb Divine Beast Essence Blood.

Olivier discovered that the Taiji Diagram could extract the mysterious aura from Divine Beast Essence Blood and reveal the method for using its Innate Divine Ability. After absorbing the blood’s aura, his main body grew stronger, and he resolved to seek more essence blood while looking for a way to obtain it from his allies.

• Olivier fed thirty-six drops of Piranha essence blood to the Taiji Diagram, which absorbed their mysterious auras and slightly improved his connection to it.
• Olivier comprehended a mysterious, devouring technique within the Taiji Diagram over the course of a month and deduced that it activated the blood’s Innate Divine Ability.

• Olivier sensed that absorbing the aura had also produced more of the mysterious substance that strengthened his main body.
• Olivier considered seeking essence blood from the Three Emperors of Landis and decided he might buy some from his comrades.
• Olivier used the Taiji Diagram as storage for his possessions, but it showed no interest in them.

• Olivier tested the move with his Light Clone and Dark Clone and found that neither could use it.

• Olivier recognized the Fire-Feather Divine Eagle as an immature divine beast, named him Fire, and took him back to the mountain with Catherine and Victoria.

• Olivier encouraged Victoria to draw in the Light Legion and hoped its next, stronger arrivals would include a Peerless Emperor he could kill.

King Ali sought Victoria’s help to free the Abbas Kingdom from the Radiant Holy See, while Victoria prepared to meet him. Before she could leave, Olivier captured two mid-level gods who had arrived intending to take the wine and seize the women, and Victoria took them away to work for her.

• King Ali arrived at the village beneath Goddess Mountain and asked Felice to arrange an audience with Victoria, hoping to establish a temple in Abbas and gain her protection.
• Felice contacted Victoria, who prepared to descend while drinking with Olivier and Catherine in a cabin atop the mountain.
• Two mid-level gods arrived, admired the wine, and planned to take it and the women until the purple youth recognized Victoria’s statue and warned his companion.
• Olivier used the Profundity of Devouring to drag the two gods into the cabin and forced them to kneel and beg for mercy.
• Victoria subdued the two gods with her aura and ordered them to follow her, while Olivier warned them that he had altered their bodies and they must obey.
