"You've come. I thought you wouldn't come to my Nether Mountain."
The Sovereign of Death looked at Luo Ao, who had suddenly arrived, with a dangerous gaze.
This guy accepted her bribes, yet it took him so long to finally come looking for her.
"My ability also has significant limitations; it can't be used casually," Luo Ao said calmly, looking at the pretty red-haired girl.
Of course, in reality, the Soul Gold Thread in his mind was just like a 'key' that could be used without limit. He just didn't want to create a large number of Soul Mutation and attract the attention of other Sovereign.
After all, even if he created a large number of Soul Mutation powerhouses, it would only result in a few more special Sovereign's Emissary like Liermons, which would have no real significance.
Aside from the initial few test subjects, the only ones who truly mutated under his control were Liwa and Echidna. And of these two, he only managed to expose Liwa's identity as Soul Mutation.
"Oh? Restrictions?"
The Sovereign of Death was slightly surprised, but also felt it was within reason.
This kind of special method is frightening because it has no restrictions. It seems that the opponent must pay a huge 'price' to use this ability.
In that light, the price she offered wasn't too bad.
"So, are you ready now?" The Sovereign of Death, dressed in a purple robe, sat sideways on a pure black throne, appearing somewhat languid and nonchalant. However, the light flickering in her eyes revealed the fluctuations in her emotions.
"We can start anytime." Luo Ao nodded.
What needs to be done?
The Sovereign of Death was also quite curious about how the other party used this method. Was it Heaven and Earth Wonder, or Divine Ability or Innate Secret Technique?
"Before that, you must agree to a few conditions and swear an oath in the name of the Overgod." Luo Ao did not answer the other party's question, but instead put forward his own conditions.
"Condition?"
The Sovereign of Death looked at Luo Ao, then replied, "Alright, but you'd better not go too far."
Although the Sovereign of Death wouldn't mind granting a few insignificant requests, the other party couldn't be too pushy.
"My conditions are..." Luo Ao then stated his conditions, and then silently looked at the Sovereign of Death.
"Aren't your conditions a bit too much?" The Sovereign of Death's eyebrows furrowed quickly, looking somewhat displeased.
While Luo Ao's individual conditions weren't excessive on their own, they seemed a bit too much when put together.
"If you haven't reached the Paragon, then you only need to abide by the first two conditions; the rest will automatically be invalid." Luo Ao had previously learned that although the Sovereign of Death's mastery of the Edicts of Death hadn't reached the Paragon, it was still far superior to that of other Death lineage Sovereign; she was only one step away from the Paragon.
Since Liwa was able to break through under similar circumstances, he believed that the chances of the Sovereign of Death breaking through were also quite high.
"Oh? You're so confident? Alright, I agree to your request." Seeing the other party's confidence, the Sovereign of Death didn't try to bargain any further.
If the other party can truly help her take this final step, agreeing to a few insignificant conditions wouldn't be out of the question.
"Alright, let's get started." Luo Ao nodded and began the process.
"Oh? It's actually related to the power of contracts?" The Sovereign of Death was somewhat surprised, but she didn't hesitate. After all, the two parties had signed an ' Equal Contract,' so she wouldn't suffer any loss.
The next steps were the same as with ' Liwa ' back then. Luo Ao was already quite experienced with this procedure, having done it many times before.
Inside the dark purple palace, only the two of them were in the spacious hall; all the servants and maids stood guard outside.
From the unseen perspective of the Sovereign of Death, a mysterious Soul Gold Thread silently rushed directly into her soul!
Immediately afterwards, Lilith discovered that her own soul had undergone an unprecedented transformation!
"My soul..." At this moment, she didn't know how to describe the feeling. She only felt that a new power was beginning to be born from the very core of her soul...
In fact, this is one of the secrets of Soul Mutation. Soul Mutation not only surpass other experts of the same level in terms of soul strength, but more importantly, their spirituality in cultivating both of their mutated elemental Laws is enhanced.
Like Liwa, after the mutation, in addition to his Water Element Divine Clone breaking through to the Paragon, he also made new progress in the Laws of the Earth. Of course, the probability of him breaking through to the Paragon in the Laws of the Earth is basically zero, but it is certain that he will be stronger than before.
The Sovereign of Death is, in fact, the Sovereign.
Even if the Soul Mutation, its strength will not increase after the mutation, but its 'spirituality' will increase accordingly.
Now, let's see if this growing 'spirituality' can lead her to take this final step.
Almost at the instant the soul underwent a transformation.
Suddenly, the goddess on the pure black throne closed her eyes.
Previously, she always felt that there was a hazy veil of mystery between her and the Edicts of Death, but now it has finally been lifted.
Everything was captured in her eyes.
"I see..."
At this moment, the Sovereign of Death suddenly recalled the scene when she had previously watched the battle of Dunnington up close.
That battle was the pinnacle of combat between Dunnington, the Paragon High-God of death in the Infernal Realm, and Francis, the Paragon High-God of destruction in the Netherworld. In this battle, the two exhausted all means of physical and Soul Attack, yet in the end, they were still evenly matched.
At that time, she was actually not far away, hoping to understand the last trace of the mystery of the Edicts of Death from Dunnington's attack methods.
Unfortunately, even after the game ended in a draw, she only had some vague 'understanding', and ultimately it was like looking at flowers through a fog; she hadn't truly 'seen' clearly.
However, what was once a vague understanding has now become crystal clear. Before long, Luo Ao discovered a new anomaly in the Sovereign of Death.
"It seems she succeeded..." Luo Ao watched this scene silently, sighing inwardly.
What Luo Ao didn't know was that both the Sovereign of Death and Liwa had previously experienced the Paragon techniques of their respective attributes up close.
Liwa had actually consulted Parhaus beforehand, which is why he broke through on the spot. Otherwise, even if he had enough spirituality, it would have taken him some more time to gradually reach this stage.
The Natural Laws descended instantly, and then quickly faded away again.
However, Lilith now feels that she is different from before.
"I never expected that it would actually happen!" Lily slowly opened her bright eyes, her pretty face adorned with a breathtakingly beautiful smile.
"The power of this Sovereign of Death is probably no weaker than that of the Destruction Sovereign now," Luo Ao thought to himself, looking at the beautiful red-haired woman.
Prior to this, the power of the three Edict Sovereign was actually unbalanced. Even when the two Sovereign of life and death joined forces, they could only barely contend with the Destruction Sovereign, Uhtred.
However, as the Sovereign of Death broke through to the Paragon realm in terms of the Edicts of Death, her strength alone was already close to that of Uhtred.
"I've remembered all your conditions. If you have the chance, don't hesitate to ask." The Sovereign of Death was naturally very pleased that he had broken through to the Death Paragon so smoothly thanks to this 'opportunity'.
Since that earth-shattering upheaval, the power among the Edict Sovereign has actually become unbalanced. It's just that less than a trillion years have passed since that upheaval, so there haven't been any new changes yet.
However, in reality, the Sovereign of Death also feels a sense of urgency.
After ' Orloff ' died, she and Viviah, the Life Sovereign, could only work together to restrain the Destruction Sovereign Uhtred, but in reality, they each had their own weaknesses.
Although Viviah was the first Primeval Elf born from the ' Ancient Tree of Life ' and possessed unparalleled talent, achieving the Life Paragon, her physical body was vastly inferior to Uhtred's.
While her physical strength was no less than Uhtred's, she was not at the Paragon realm, making it equally difficult for her to pose a threat to him.
However, now that she has reached the Paragon of the Edicts of Death, she has completely caught up with Uhtred in Willpower and Profound Mysteries. In terms of physical body, they are both comparable to the level of the Sovereign Artifact, and the Overgod Divine Artifact is also in harmony with them.
The only threat Uhtred could pose to her was her ' Space-Time Chaos ' attack, but that attack primarily targets the soul. With her unique ' Innate Secret Technique ' and ' Heart of the Netherworld,' she was confident she could withstand it.
Now, even if any further turmoil arises among the Sovereign, Lilith has enough confidence to face it.
Luo Ao could guess a thing or two of what Lilith was thinking.
If she hadn't felt a sense of crisis, she wouldn't have taken such a gamble and given Luo Ao the seed first.
"This kind of situation is actually a good thing for the other Sovereign as well," Luo Ao thought to himself.
Otherwise, if Uhtred were to do something outrageous, there really wouldn't be anyone to stop him.
