The final battle begins
Netherworld, Hanyin Mountain.
A desolate mountain, inside a silent cave.
A bald man dressed in black armor suddenly opened his eyes.
"Hahahaha! There's always a way out! That damned Makenrich! He's finally fallen into someone else's hands!" For countless eons, he had been controlled by that damned Makenrich, forced to do all sorts of things for him against his will.
Endless years of depravity, with no hope in sight. Especially when he was being controlled, it was impossible to defy the other's will. Perhaps his fate was to live forever as the other's soul slave, forever devoid of self- Consciousness.
But today! That bastard Makenrich is finally dead!
He is free!
He is free!
"Lord Rog of Lord of Tianhua Prefecture? Perhaps I should really thank you. But this treasure?" Hayden took out the Death God's Demonic Codex from his spatial ring, stroking it with obvious affection, as gently as if he were caressing a lover he hadn't seen for many years.
"Heh, this treasure. No matter who kills Makenrich, they can't get it; it can only belong to me. Ruthless! Ruthless! Hahahaha..." Hayden understood that the other party had placed the item on his person in preparation for the possibility of death!
Because Makenrich had long recognized his own greedy nature, he understood that if the treasure remained in his possession, he would never repay the debt by giving it to whoever killed him.
"Just as you thought, I won't give this treasure to anyone. With it, I can become Asura! I can Paragon! Hahahaha..." Thinking of his spirited self billions of years later, Hayden couldn't help but laugh maniacally.
Rog clearly had no Consciousness that he had just missed out on a priceless treasure. But there was nothing he could do about it; he could only blame Makenrich for being too cunning.
"Hmm? This armor is actually Sovereign Artifact." The Light God Clone continued to inventory the treasures and discovered that Mosi's armor was actually a Material Defense Sovereign Artifact.
"What a pity, this Sovereign Artifact is useless to me." Rog shook his head and sighed. The other party still had Divine Clone alive, so Rog was unable to recognize it as his master and unleash its original power. Even if he managed to kill Mosi's Divine Clone, it would probably still be taken back by the Sovereign.
"This hammer seems quite formidable, but unfortunately, I still can't refine it." After fiddling with Mosi's two items, it was clear that Mosi's wealth was probably greater than the other two combined, but unfortunately, he couldn't retrieve them.
"But this sword can be kept as a weapon for the Light God Clone later." Rog found another good treasure on the Storm Elemental Spirit Gustav.
"This thing must be an extremely rare material in the world." After several attempts, Rog discovered that its sturdiness was almost comparable to that of Mosi's Sovereign Artifact armor, and its sharpness was also extraordinary, only its inherent power was relatively limited.
"Hmm? What is this?" Rog took out a special spherical bead from Gustav's elemental body.
"This thing? Could it be another rare treasure?" Rog himself rubbed the peculiar, round bead in his hand, but found nothing unusual about it.
"Sizzle~" Then a drop of blood dripped out to acknowledge its owner, but there was no reaction.
"Let's examine it further with my soul power." Rog's powerful soul power instantly entered the spherical bead.
"It feels so comfortable, so warm." Rog felt as if his soul was returning to its mother's embrace, constantly receiving a nurturing sensation.
"This bead actually has the effect of restoring and nourishing the soul." Rog's expression was also very joyful. His soul was already incredibly powerful, practically invincible below the Paragon. With this bead restoring his soul injuries, he would be even more invincible.
Gustav will die.
It was purely because his own soul was too weak; Rog's Soul Attack had exceeded the limits of his soul's tolerance. The spherical bead didn't even have time to heal his soul injuries before he died. As for Rog, the size of his soul was too great, which greatly increased his tolerance limit. It was like the difference between an ordinary human and a Saint-level dragon; what was a fatal injury to an ordinary human wouldn't even be considered a minor injury to a dragon.
"Let's call this bead the Soul-Nourishing Pearl." Rog was quite satisfied with acquiring such a treasure. With this extraordinary item, his soul defense would become increasingly difficult to overcome and invincible.
As the Death Divine Clone continued to study those mysterious patterns, Rog's understanding of other aspects of the Death Rule gradually deepened. In addition, his soul was already strong enough, and he quickly mastered methods such as refining Soul Defense Divine Artifact.
Although his understanding of the Death Rule is still somewhat lacking, the Soul Defense Divine Artifact he creates, thanks to his superior soul strength, are of quite good quality. As his understanding of the Death Rule deepens in the future, the Soul Defense Divine Artifact he creates will become even stronger.
Time always flies. Rog and his group, who were participating in the expedition in the Aoqi Plane, suddenly saw six beams of seven-colored light shooting into the sky from both ends of the three passages!
According to the rules, this is the signal that the final battle has begun!
Soon, the forces of both sides had been integrated. Countless soldiers lined up and poured into the three passages one after another, charging towards the other side along these passages.
Before the two armies had even made actual contact, they launched a collective physical attack on each other in units of a thousand. Various divine powers flashed, endless hazy light and shadow flew wildly, blood splattered, Godspark fell, and black and white badges fell out continuously.
Finally, the two forwards collided, and the melee began.
Rog and his men stood at the edge of the passage, without moving.
They simply watched as waves of soldiers surged into the passage; they themselves did not participate in the chaotic battle.
"Haha, everyone, I'm going in to grab some of the Sovereign’s Might!" One of our Commander laughed as he charged into the group of soldiers, blending in and entering the left passage. Following closely behind, many other Commander followed suit, rushing into the other passages.
This decisive battle is the fastest way to earn the Sovereign’s Might. Although it is dangerous, as long as the Commander is careful, the chances of survival are not small.
However, since Rog now possesses over a thousand drops of Sovereign’s Might, he naturally wouldn't risk engaging in combat again.
It should be noted that in this decisive battle, ordinary soldiers are all gathered together. Trying to kill a hundred? You'd probably be surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers.
The soldiers were mostly Six-Star Fiend or Seven-Star Fiend in strength, and in terms of individual attack power, they were probably only one-tenth the strength of a lord. But when tens of thousands of them surrounded them, even a lord would be forced to flee, and if he was even a little slow, he would be killed.
Although Rog was confident, he still had weaknesses. Besides, he no longer lacked the Sovereign’s Might, so there was no need for him to participate in a final battle that was of little significance to him at the moment.
Behind Rog Difan and Haidisi also had no intention of joining the fight. They came from the Aiken Clan, and although they didn't possess much Sovereign’s Might, there was no need for them to blindly rush in and risk their lives.
If you lose a battle against other strong opponents and die, you can't blame anyone else. In such a chaotic battle, life and death are entirely a matter of luck.
"Colin, are you planning to join the game?" Gu Rory seemed eager to try; this seemingly refined and gentle guy was actually the most reckless of them all.
"Alright, I won't be able to make any breakthroughs if I don't take a chance, so let's go in and give it a try." Colin took out his weapon, and together with his friend, they mingled with their main force and charged in.
"Those two guys are pretty crazy." Rog shook his head. If his strength couldn't improve even billions of years from now, he might not care about his own life or death.
However, he is still 'young' and has enough potential to be explored. The potential of the Three-Element Soul Mutator is still waiting for him to slowly develop.
So he simply watched silently as the two joined the incredibly brutal battlefield. They were indeed among the top of the Seven-Star Fiend, otherwise they wouldn't have survived this long. But surviving this meat grinder-like melee was entirely a matter of luck.
