Assessment (Part One)
"Who could have imagined that the Paragon High-God would become a great Sovereign?" Lambert was naturally familiar with Rog. He was also quite startled when he first met this Sovereign. Fortunately, this one's temper was much better than the previous Sovereign.
Although he remained cautious during his time with the other party, he felt less oppressed than when he served the previous Sovereign.
"Lambert, what kind of Divine Beast Divine Beast are those powerful beings from Black Fang Prefecture?" Dimont asked the legion commander with some curiosity. He hadn't been in the Lightning Element Divine Plane for long and wasn't very familiar with some of the powerful beings here.
"Mr. Dimont, this powerful Divine Beast is actually Chelstaff, the Prefect of the Black Fang Prefecture. His true form is a terrifying bovine divine Divine Beast. Not only is his physical body powerful, but his Innate Divine Ability are also quite terrifying..." In all the Divine Plane, there are actually some powerful Divine Beast beasts. Chelstaff is one of them.
At the speed of the Sovereign, it would take less than half an hour to reach Black Fang Prefecture.
However, Rog was in no hurry. The group leisurely rode in the Metallic Lifeform, slowly exploring the surrounding natural scenery through the transparent glass of the Metallic Lifeform.
Of course, the so-called 'slow and leisurely' here refers to the Sovereign. For ordinary Highgod, the flying speed of this Metallic Lifeform is already terrifying enough.
"The Sovereign is really quite leisurely." Lambert shook his head inwardly. It's just that this guy rose to power too quickly, and probably hasn't seen much of the beautiful scenery of the Lightning Element Divine Plane yet.
While ostensibly searching for a messenger, it was actually a way to relax and unwind. Rog didn't really care much about it at all.
Lightning Element Divine Plane, Crimson Cloud Continent, Black Fang Prefecture.
"My Sovereign, the Prefect of Black Fang Prefecture should be inside the city. I'll go and call him out." As someone who also worked under the Sovereign, Lambert had actually met the lord of Black Fang Prefecture several times, and the man's strength was indeed remarkable.
However, the Sovereign had already filled all the available slots for their messengers, so no Sovereign had come to examine Chelstaff. It wasn't until the appearance of Rog, the new Lightning Element Sovereign, that he had this opportunity.
Of course, Lambert thought that Chase would have a tough time passing the test under Mr. Dimont.
"My Sovereign, Chase and ' Flying Star ' are both here, and they've already arrived." Lambert had just gone to deliver the news that the Sovereign was testing them to be messengers, and the two of them had both chosen to accept the test without prior arrangement.
There are indeed some powerful individuals who are unwilling to be bound by the Sovereign and refuse to become its Sovereign's Emissary. However, most seven-star powerhouses and even those at the level of Prefect still yearn to become Sovereign's Emissary and obtain a Sovereign Artifact.
"Yes, I can see them." Sovereign, Rog's divine sense was incredibly vast, and he easily detected two figures flying rapidly towards him. He observed the two with great interest.
Chase was a tall, burly man dressed in a bronze-colored, ancient armor. He was over two meters tall, with two black horns on his head and a nose with distinct bull-like features, adorned with a blue nose ring.
' Flying Star ', on the other hand, was a white-clad youth with an extraordinary air about him. His appearance was only that of an ordinary human, but his pure white eyes were very eye-catching.
' Flying Star ' is actually his title as the Seven-Star Thunder Envoy. In the Lightning Element Divine Plane, Flying Star Thunder Emissary is already a Legendary figure. In fact, many powerful figures in the Lightning Element Divine Plane believe that Flying Star already has the strength to obtain the title of ' Judicator '.
Judicator!
In the Lightning Element Divine Plane, this is an extremely revered title, one that only the most powerful among the Highgod can attain.
The title of ' Judicator ' in the Lightning Element Divine Plane is on the same level as the title of ' Asura ' in the Infernal Realm. Over billions of years, there have always been only a fixed number of such titles. The stronger rise, the stronger fall!
Over countless years, any Judicator will become absolutely terrifying.
However, Flying Star himself never challenged the Judicator. "Greetings, Great Sovereign." After the two arrived, Rog was shrouded in a hazy, illusory light and shadow, making it difficult for Chase and the others to see him clearly. Therefore, the two did not recognize that this Sovereign was the same Rog who had previously been Paragon expert from the Divine Plane.
"Alright, get up, all of you. Your test is very simple: you just have to fight this Dimont one-on-one." To the outside world, Rog wanted Dimont to appear as the Sovereign's Emissary, so that others wouldn't guess that Rog was the Sovereign himself, which would ruin the whole thing.
"I will decide whether you two pass the test based on your performance." The mysterious Sovereign's words instantly put Chase and Flying Star on guard. Since the Sovereign hadn't said they absolutely had to defeat Dimont, it seemed he didn't think they had any hope of beating this behemoth.
"Which of you two wants to go first?" Dimont asked in a low voice, but his eyes were already fixed on Chase, the big black bull. It would be much more fun to fight against an opponent like him; it would be quite boring if his opponent kept dodging his attacks.
"Then I'll go first." Seeing that Dimont was so 'provoking' him, how could Chase possibly back down before the great Sovereign?
"Alright, let's make it clear then. You're not allowed to dodge later!" Dimont's muscular body was incredibly imposing, but Chase was confident in his own strength and naturally wasn't afraid.
"Hmph!" Seeing that his opponent was fighting with his bare hands, Chase instantly felt that he was being underestimated, so he didn't take out his weapon, the warhammer, and also fought with his fists!
By the way,... [version].
Chase was wearing bronze armor, and his right hand was also covered with a bronze-colored Defensive Divine Artifact. His right fist struck forward like a thunderbolt.
"Hey!" Dimont shouted, his right arm bulging with veins like a writhing dragon, as he also threw a right punch.
"Boom!"
With a force of ten million jin, the two fists collided, and the space itself seemed to explode and tear apart like a piece of paper. Chase couldn't help but tremble in his right fist and stagger backward, a trace of blood appearing on his fist.
"You!" Chase was instantly stunned. He was a special Divine Beast Kui Ox, the Kui Niu, born with astonishing physical strength. In addition, the profound mysteries of the lightning Profound Mysteries of the Laws he had fused with specialized in physical attacks. How could he be so easily suppressed?
From that punch just now, Chase clearly sensed that his opponent's physical strength was probably far superior to his own.
"Huh? This is!" Chase looked at Dimont in surprise, only to see that the other's entire body was beginning to be covered with a layer of black substance, even his fists were covered with this black substance.
Enveloped in this black substance, Dimont, illuminated by the sunlight, exuded an unimaginable and terrifying oppressive power.
This black substance is an ability that Dimont developed after his body was further strengthened following his breakthrough to the Highgod. Armed with this 'black substance,' he is even more powerful in both material attack and material defense than in his normal form!
"Kid, watch out, I'm going to use 20% of my power this time." This was the first time Dimont had encountered an opponent who could withstand even 10% of his strength. He immediately smiled and flew towards the opponent. Although he was at a disadvantage in terms of profound techniques, his speed was still astonishing thanks to his powerful divine body.
Chase did not back down, but bravely went to meet him.
As he approached Dimont, Chase felt a terrifying aura of destruction envelop him, causing his expression to change drastically in an instant.
"Boom!"
Neither of them dodged, exchanging punches. The space between their fists collapsed upon impact. Chase couldn't help but be thrown back again, his blood surging throughout his body.
"Haha..." Dimont quickly followed.
"Whoosh!" Chase was so frightened that he immediately darted away.
"Kid, don't run away!" Dimont shouted impatiently.
Chase cultivated the Lightning Law, and his speed was still quite fast. However, he was only slightly stronger than Dimont after his "darkening." Relying on his speed advantage, he used his agility to dodge and maneuver, occasionally throwing a punch or a kick to counter Dimont.
