The Battle of Sovereign's Might

"You're courting death." Though Sean kept a low profile, his strength as a peak Asura was not something a mere Seven-Star Demon could provoke.

As soon as he spoke, a Soul Attack shot from Sean's eyes and struck the approaching Nasser directly. At such close range, with them flying toward each other, Nasser had no way to evade it.

Nasser's body trembled after being hit, but he immediately returned to normal.

Sean, however, instantly frowned. His Soul Seed had just failed. Once a Soul Seed failed, its caster would suffer backlash, but with the Soul Pearl, a vast surge of soul power instantly restored his soul.

A Seven-Star Demon who cultivates the Destruction Rule—how could he possibly evade my Soul Seed? Sean was deeply puzzled. Could it be the Short Spear in his hand?

Even a Sovereign Artifact should not have been able to affect attacks or control involving the soul.

"You tried to plant a Soul Seed in me?" Nasser stopped as well, staring at Sean in surprise. Then he suddenly said, "You're Sean from Mo Yuan City?"

"It's too late even if you know now." Sean's gaze turned cold as he unleashed his strongest Soul Attack.

With mysteries nearing the Paragon level, combined with the soul power of a Three-element Soul Mutation, no one in the world besides a Paragon could block this Soul Attack without relying on a Soul Defense Lord God Artifact or Sovereign's Might.

"Hmph, Sean, I've long heard of your reputation. I'd like to see just how strong you are."

He showed no fear in the face of Sean's Soul Attack, because the Short Spear in his hand gave him endless confidence, though he did not know why this weapon could help him resist Soul Attacks.

The Soul Attack was incredibly fast. It entered Nasser's body directly, then rushed toward the divine spark deep within his soul. Along the way, vast amounts of black soul power tried to stop it, but to no effect.

"This is impossible!" Inside Nasser's divine spark, a divine clone with the same appearance let out an incredulous roar.

But it was already too late. Sean's Soul Attack struck his soul directly, and in an instant, his aura vanished.

Outside, Nasser, holding the Short Spear horizontally, stiffened once more. His head snapped back, and he fell straight down. Sean immediately rushed forward, intending to take the strange Short Spear.

However, a powerful energy rapidly flew over as well. It was Buweit, who had just used Sovereign's Might. "Stop! You want to take my property too?"

"Hmph!" Sean ignored him and struck out with his palm. Large numbers of vines appeared between them.

Buweit's warblade radiated terrifying Sovereign's Might. Seeing his path blocked, he immediately slashed downward. Yet the vines he had expected to sever instantly only had three cut apart, and his blade could no longer descend.

In that brief moment, Sean had already obtained the Short Spear.

The instant it touched his hand, a terrifying killing intent surged into his mind, making him want to slaughter everyone around him immediately. But the Soul Pearl soon released soul power again, suppressing the influence of that baleful aura.

Once he returned to normal, Sean immediately raised his right hand. A drop of blood fell onto the Short Spear, but it did not merge with it. Instead, it slid off and dripped downward.

"Nasser should still have other divine clones, so the artifact cannot recognize a master." Buweit did not charge over again. Instead, he said, "Sean, please give that Short Spear to me.

"You don't want to offend the Four Divine Beasts Family over a Sovereign Artifact that cannot recognize a master, do you?"

Most experts knew about Seven-Star Level powerhouses in the God Planes. Sean was a recently risen figure and was particularly skilled at refining Soul Poison.

"I didn't take it from you. Why should I give it to you?" Sean's tone turned cold as well.

Given the Soul Pearl's unusual reaction, there was no way he would hand the Short Spear over to anyone else.

Seeing Sean's tone and expression, Buweit immediately raged, "Sean, I said 'please' only to give you face. Compared to my Four Divine Beasts Family, what the hell are you? Hand over the Sovereign Artifact in your hand right now.

"Then swear a Supreme God's oath to be loyal to me and the Four Divine Beasts Family for the rest of your life. Otherwise, I'll make your soul scatter and your spirit perish."

He had used Sean's unique Soul Poison refining before, and its effects were indeed quite good. The Four Divine Beasts Family could make use of it as well.

As he spoke, quite a few members of the Four Divine Beasts Family had already gradually surrounded Sean and the others.

"Is that so?" Sean waved his right hand, and the Short Spear released an incomparably terrifying energy, far stronger than what Nasser had displayed before.

The baleful aura became like a long line, locking directly onto Bu Weite in the distance. Space shattered all along its path.

He did not want to offend the Four Divine Beasts Family either, but they had surrounded him and were forcing him to swear a Supreme God's oath and become a dog. Naturally, he would not endure it any longer.

"Not good. Sean is actually this strong." Buweit, whose body still radiated Sovereign's Might, immediately retreated at top speed. At the same time, he unleashed his Innate Divine Ability and shot it with all his strength toward the incoming baleful aura.

The phantom of the Azure Dragon appeared once again. The Innate Divine Ability infused with Sovereign's Might had some effect on the baleful aura. Once the slowing of time ended, Buweit relied on his greater speed to evade the terrifying blow, but the energy spreading from its edge still easily sliced open his thigh.

The intense pain made Buweit roar. Large numbers of azure scales immediately emerged across his body as he shouted furiously, "Everyone, use Sovereign's Might! Kill him!"

"Everyone?" Sean immediately realized that the more than one thousand Highgods around him had all used Sovereign's Might at the same time.

In an instant, azure, blue-green, fiery red, and earthen yellow Sovereign's Might illuminated the sky. The immense pressure of that energy made even Sean feel uncomfortable.

"This is fucking absurd." Though Sean was affected by the baleful aura, his thoughts remained perfectly clear. He was merely somewhat more impulsive.

The sight of more than a thousand people using Sovereign's Might at once was unimaginable. To obtain a single drop of Sovereign's Might, countless Prefect Lord-level experts had to pay enormous prices, even risking their lives.

As for Seven-Star Demon-level experts, they would not even dare dream of it. Even he, a peak Asura, had spent hundreds of millions of years scheming and planted Soul Seeds in countless people to accumulate enough wealth. Then, after enduring immense suffering, he had refined only a dozen or so drops of Sovereign's Might.

That was only because he possessed the Soul Pearl and had undergone soul mutation. Otherwise, his success rate in extracting Sovereign's Might would have been even lower.

But the Sovereign families could be so casual with it. No wonder the Four Divine Beasts Family dominated eleven planes. A Highgod using Sovereign's Might could contend against a Six-Star Demon. What could other families possibly use against them?

"Kill!" Buweit roared, and large numbers of God level experts using Sovereign's Might immediately closed in on Sean. Vast numbers of Soul Attacks and material attacks infused with Sovereign's Might came crashing toward him.

"I can only slaughter them freely now." Sean knew he could no longer hold back. He immediately activated a drop of Death Sovereign Power.

Holding the Short Spear he had just acquired, he dodged hundreds of attacks at top speed. He was not stupid. Even though he had used Sovereign's Might as well, he had no intention of taking so many attacks head-on.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! With a single strike, the dozen or so Seven-Star Demons following him were all instantly killed. They could not evade at all.

Sean did not care when he saw it. He could simply plant Soul Seeds in someone else later. The people from the Four Divine Beasts Family were the most important concern right now.

With a thought, he sent out a semicircular ripple. The dozens of people closest to him were instantly slain.
