Meeting a Sovereign
The Radiant Divine Realm.
A figure clad in a golden robe traversed freely above the vast Divine Prison Sea. The endless azure waters rippled with the waves, and the figure moved with astonishing speed, skimming across the sea like a fleeting shadow.
"I've heard that a Light Sovereign once lived on the seabed of Sangqiu Island. I hope this Sovereign is home." Although Rog had tried his best to find out the whereabouts of some Sovereign, he had no way of knowing whether they were Sovereign or not; he could only rely on luck.
In the distance, an island with a giant goddess statue stands in the distance.
"An underwater world? It seems this Sovereign is indeed, as others have speculated, likely a marine creature in his true form." If his true form is a marine creature, then his Light Sovereign Clone is most likely just composed of the Sovereign’s Might, and such a physical body is certainly far inferior to his true form.
Under the control of Rog's Willpower, the deep blue seawater surged and automatically parted to create a deep, downward-facing channel, and Rog immediately plunged into the depths of the sea.
"The scenery beneath the deep sea is quite interesting." Although the water pressure deep within the Divine Prison Sea is strong, it is almost imperceptible to Rog, not to mention that he now possesses the Willpower and has a certain degree of control over the surrounding space.
Rog admired the scenery deep within the Divine Prison Sea with great interest. Although he had been to many places before, this was his first time venturing into the interior of the deep sea.
The deep sea was silent and devoid of light. Some enormous deep-sea beasts swam slowly. To survive in the Radiant Divine Realm, even the weakest of these sea beasts was at the Saint-level, and some powerful ones were so powerful that even ordinary gods dared not provoke them. Rog transformed into a dazzling golden light in the deep sea and went directly to the depths of the ocean. His speed was so fast that many bewildered deep-sea beasts had not even had time to react.
The deep seabed is home to a variety of marine plants and underwater mountains.
Those underwater reefs seem to be stacked on top of each other, some reaching nearly a thousand meters high, and sometimes they suddenly cave in, revealing a bottomless black hole.
At this moment, Rog seemed like the son of a sea god, riding the waves through the silent deep sea.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light appeared in the dark, deep sea. Within Rog's field of vision, a magnificent and vast underwater palace complex sat in this deep-sea world, looking truly like a dream.
"This Sovereign certainly knows how to enjoy himself." Rog couldn't help but admire the meticulously arranged underwater palace. The continuous, well-arranged beautiful palaces created a mysterious underwater world. It looked even more magnificent than the Skyrite Mountains in the ancestral land of the Four Divine Beasts.
Who goes there!
Upon discovering the unexpected guests who had suddenly appeared on the seabed, a ten-person squad quickly surrounded them. Interestingly, these warriors were all covered in fish scales, even their faces, making them appear to be warriors of the merfolk race.
Could it be that this Sovereign's true form is a mermaid?
"I am Rog, Paragon expert from the Infernal Realm, and I have a request to see the Great Sovereign." Rog's tone was very calm, and his gaze toward the guards carried only a slight hint of surprise.
"Paragon?" The guard captain looked closely and realized that the face did indeed seem familiar; it really was that person. He immediately softened his tone.
"So it's Lord Rog. I'll go and inform the great Sovereign on your behalf, but whether the Sovereign is willing to see you is not up to me." The man, whose face was covered with blue fish scales and who had a somewhat magical appearance, said with a smile, and then immediately turned and entered a palace at the back.
In a bright palace that looked like it was cast in crystal, Hermela's Water Element Divine Clone was reclining on his throne.
She did indeed look like a mermaid princess. Her entire body was covered in a long, form-fitting dress with blue scales, her shoulders were bare, revealing her snow-white skin, and two pairs of transparent cicada wings extended backward from her sides.
It also has a bluish-green diamond-shaped scale on its forehead.
This clearly demonstrated his identity as a member of the Siren race. "Sovereign Rog requests an audience." The servant who came to deliver the message buried his head directly in the floor, not daring to look directly at the Sovereign's body.
"Oh, he actually came to us himself, how interesting." Hermela smiled charmingly and immediately summoned her Sovereign Divine Clone back from the Infernal Realm.
"Please wait a moment, my Sovereign says he will return to see you shortly." The captain of the guard who returned with the message was also incredulous. The Sovereign would actually value a god so much? And go to such lengths to return from elsewhere? Even if the other party was Paragon, it was still somewhat...
Mitchell was somewhat puzzled, but how could he possibly fathom what the Sovereign was thinking?
"You rushed back from somewhere else?" Rog nodded upon hearing this, his expression unreadable, and stood silently at the entrance of the palace complex, waiting quietly.
Hermela didn't have to wait long. At the speed of Sovereign, it would only take half a day to traverse most of the Radiant Divine Realm. Hermela teleported from the Infernal Realm to the Divine Prison Sea and quickly returned to her residence at the bottom of Sangqiu Island.
"My lord, the Sovereign has returned. Please follow me." Guided by Captain Mitchell, Rog entered the palace, and was then led by three Siren Clan maids until he arrived at a colossal palace.
A powerful pressure emanated from the palace, seemingly from Sovereign, yet he felt no fear or dread, his mind remarkably calm. It seemed that the more intense the situation, the more composed he became.
"Rog, come in."
A gentle, captivating female voice emanated from the palace, and Rog immediately knew it must be the Sangqiu Sovereign.
He flew into the vast palace and walked along the passageway. Along the way, he saw many beautiful Siren Clan women. Each sea monster maid had a different temperament and a unique charm compared to the human beauties.
He followed the passage until he reached its end, where he saw a beautiful woman with long pink hair sitting before a golden throne.
This long-haired beauty had a dignified face, and her eyes were like a pool of blazing light, captivating all who looked upon her.
Rog understood that this was an outward manifestation of the opponent's Sovereign power. The sheer, natural Willpower that was present was far beyond what his own Paragon Willpower could currently match.
The Willpower of the Sovereign's will is immeasurably higher than the Willpower of Paragon being. The inviolability of the Sovereign's will is not an empty phrase.
Even at the Paragon, one is only considered safe when far from the Sovereign. But at this moment, he is facing the Sovereign himself.
"Sovereign." Rog bowed respectfully to the pink-haired beauty on the throne.
"No need for formalities," the alluring beauty smiled. "Rog, you are Paragon cultivator. Although I am Sovereign, we Sovereign also admire those of you who have reached the Paragon." She glanced at Rog casually, then asked, "Rog, I heard that you are now an envoy of the Sovereign of Death?"
It's no secret that Rog frequently uses the tokens given by the Sovereign of Death, so it's understandable that the other party would ask about it.
Could it be that this Sovereign intends to take him as an emissary?
"I had some agreements with the Sovereign of Death. However, I am not her Sovereign." Rog didn't hide anything about this. He wanted to see what the other party was up to.
"So, you're not the adult's messenger." Hermela's beautiful eyebrows suddenly twitched.
I don't know what she's up to, but today, only one of them can survive.
