"Cao Ya, are you the main god?" Lei Sijing couldn't help but ask.
Beibei was startled, then suddenly realized.
Ah, that's right, the ability to freely traverse spatial turbulence is a power possessed only by the main gods!
But isn't Cao Ya a Great Perfection Upper God?
When did he become the supreme god?
The more important question is—where did he get his divine status?!
“I am not the main god.” Cao Ya shook his head.
“Indeed, he did not refine the main godhead.” Qinghuo nodded.
“But…” Lei Hong frowned. How could Cao Ya be so strong, comparable to a main god, without refining the main godhead?!
Looking at Cao Ya, Qing Huo exclaimed in amazement:
"Cao Ya, you've reached the Great Perfection of the Four Elements Laws, and Heaven and Earth have bestowed upon you an additional reward of willpower? Let me calculate, that's five portions of willpower!"
"Each portion is multiplied tenfold..."
"That's a difference of ten thousand times!"
"No wonder that 'Magnus,' who achieved the Great Perfection of Destiny, was instantly defeated by you."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was taken aback.
"Ten thousand times the power of a Great Perfection???" Reisjing's eyes widened, almost doubting his ears.
Lei Hong and Bei Bei were in roughly the same situation.
You should know that even if they were to fight any of the Great Perfection masters together, such as the Wind Great Perfection master "Byer" or the Destiny Great Perfection master "Magnus", they would be no match for them at all.
However, Cao Ya was ten thousand times ahead of a Great Perfection Upper God...
What does this mean?
This is roughly the level of power a lower-level god would have.
A being born into this world, through their own cultivation, can actually become a supreme god?!
“By the way, what about the boss…” Beibei looked at Cao Ya for help.
Lin Lei was in a deep sleep, but was lifted up by the power of the Azure Flame God and floated in mid-air.
Although he had fallen into a deep sleep, there was a slight smile on his lips, as if he were immersed in some beautiful story.
Lin Lei's breath was very weak; he was only clinging to life with a single Soul Stone.
“Fortunately, when Linley was in Hell, my mother gave him a Soul Stone…” Reis Crystal said thankfully. “A Soul Stone is like the source of life for us Amethyst Divine Beasts. I only have one. If I take it out, I will be doomed immediately.”
"Only Mother, who is the chief deity, can take out a Soul Stone and give it to someone else."
"Linley is the first person in countless years to obtain the Soul Stone."
"That's why he was able to use the unique supernatural powers of our Amethyst Divine Beast."
Beibei breathed a slight sigh of relief.
As long as the person isn't dead and there's something to keep them alive, there's still hope. We can try to find a way to revive the boss.
"I've heard Beirut mention the soul stone of the Purple Crystal Divine Beast; it's an extremely valuable treasure," Qinghuo nodded.
He also guessed that the Bauhinia God had some connection with the Four Divine Beasts, which gave Linley an opportunity, which Linley seized, thus obtaining a Soul Stone.
As for openly helping the Four Divine Beasts family...
Even the Bauhinia Goddess dared not.
The fall of the Four Divine Beasts was orchestrated by the Lord of Light.
Apart from the four supreme gods, the strongest being under the four rulers of the rules is the Lord of Light!
The Bauhinia God could never be a match for the Lord of Light!
The other six Law Masters were all slightly inferior to the Light Master.
Because the Lord of Light is the only Law Ruler who possesses a supreme artifact!
Naturally, he took the fifth seat among the main gods.
Without their trump cards, who among the mid-level and lower-level main gods would dare to oppose the Lord of Light?
People like Beirut and Qinghuo, who were born in the material plane, were able to avoid the Lord of Light and save their lives in their home material plane by having their main god avatars there.
Then, through the remnants of the Four Divine Beasts, they persuaded the Lord of Destruction to retreat, allowing their ordinary divine avatars to travel through Hell.
The main god of Zijing, however, did not have this ability.
She is a being from hell, an avatar of the supreme god, and is completely incapable of going to any material plane.
As for ordinary divine clones...
However, it may not necessarily be able to stop the ordinary divine avatars of the Lord of Light.
"The only concern is... the Soul Stone's energy is limited. Can it keep Linley alive indefinitely? What if the Soul Stone runs out of energy..." Qinghuo frowned.
"Mr. Qinghuo, do you have any way to save our boss?" Beibei asked pleadingly.
Qinghu smiled bitterly.
What could he do? Magnus, who had already made his move, was also at the Great Perfection stage.
His divine avatar dared not leave the Magnolia Plane...
Wait, the Supreme God?!
As if waking from a dream, Qinghuo looked at Cao Ya with burning eyes.
Due to habitual thinking, he almost forgot that standing here was a Great Perfection being comparable to a lower-level main god!
Beibei, Leisijing, and Lei Hong all looked at Cao Ya with hopeful expressions.
Whew~~
Cao Ya investigated for a while and then laughed:
"Lin Lei won't die. He's actually benefited from this misfortune. Who knows, once he wakes up, he might be comparable to a Great Perfection cultivator."
The group of people were taken aback, looking somewhat bewildered.
What did Cao Ya mean by that?
They observed carefully and were astonished to discover that Linley's soul was undergoing some strange change, as if...
"Soul mutation?!" Lei Sijing exclaimed in astonishment.
"A mutation of four soul elements—this is unprecedented, a first in history!" Lei Hong exclaimed in shock.
Historically, the most diverse types of soul mutations have occurred, namely the three elements.
This is truly the first time that a soul has mutated in four different elements!
Those who can cultivate four divine avatars are already very rare.
Most of them are one or two divine avatars, and the number of those with three divine avatars has dropped sharply.
Not to mention four divine incarnations like Lin Lei.
Of course, those like Cao Ya, who possess seven divine avatars, are a different story.
Cao Ya's situation was also different from others.
"Boss is alright...that's...that's wonderful!" Beibei almost cried with joy.
"Hmm, a four-element soul mutation is unprecedented, and it's unlikely that anyone will ever succeed in the future. Perhaps Lin Lei will really receive a reward of willpower." Qing Huo pondered.
Cao Ya thought to himself, it wasn't "maybe," but "definitely" that there would be a reward of willpower!
Because after Lin Lei's soul mutated, he had the hope of transcendence.
The primordial chaos that had waited for over a thousand eons was practically yearning for the transcendent being.
Lin Lei's existence must have already caught his attention.
Perhaps, I am the same?
Cao Ya thought to himself.
I don't really care.
Given the level of HarmonyOS, if there is any malice, he would have nowhere to run.
Since Hongmeng has not yet appeared, it means that Hongmeng is still in a state of observation and will not interfere too much in the affairs of the universe.
Moreover, Hongmeng may interfere with the main universe. As for subsidiary universes like the Panlong universe, Hongmeng's attention will definitely drop by several percentage points.
"Cao Ya, how much willpower do you possess?"
At this moment, Qinghuo asked Cao Ya a question, with a hint of curiosity.
Upon learning that Lin Lei was unharmed and had made a great fortune, Bebe, Lei Jing, and Lei Hong were relieved and surprised to hear Qing Huo's words.
“Five,” Cao Ya laughed. “The Lightning Law, Fire Law, Water Law, and Earth Law are all at the Great Perfection of the four elements, so I naturally have four portions of willpower. Then, I received one more portion of willpower as a reward, so in total, that makes five portions.”
"Tsk tsk, Cao Ya, you are truly the first person since the beginning of time!" Qinghuo clapped his hands in praise. "Before you, the number of main gods was fixed. Occasionally, when a predecessor fell, a successor would obtain the main godhood to fill the gap."
"Someone like you, without refining the main godhead, relying solely on your own cultivation, is already comparable to a main god..."
Qinghuo gave a thumbs up, showing great admiration.
"So, it turns out that a main god can indeed be cultivated, and refining the main godhead is not the only method," Lei Hong murmured, deeply shaken.
"Unfortunately, Cao Ya is probably the only one who can cultivate to become a main god," Lei Sijing sighed.
Lei Hong gave a wry smile.
Indeed, they have cultivated for countless years, yet they have not even reached the pinnacle of a single system of laws.
To attain the status of a supreme god, one needs at least four perfected systems.
They were basically hopeless.
Beibei touched her nose, too embarrassed to interrupt.
To this day, he hasn't even integrated the six profound mysteries of the Dark Laws.
Moreover, Beibei felt that she had absolutely no chance of even getting started with the other rules and regulations.
It was precisely because of this, having personally experienced the difficulty of fusing the profound mysteries of the laws, that Beibei expressed deep admiration for Cao Ya's state of achieving the Great Perfection of the Four Elements.
That's absolutely insane!
“However, Cao Ya, the aura you exuded earlier has alarmed the entire dimensional battlefield. I’m afraid that soon, all the main gods will be coming over.” Qing Huo suddenly said seriously.
“Hmm, Mother will definitely come too.” Lei Sijing muttered, then suddenly smiled and said, “Cao Ya, you are still my mother’s chief messenger.”
“After Mother arrives, she definitely won’t let you continue being the chief god’s messenger.”
"A supreme deity deserves the respect due to him."
Cao Ya didn't care.
Among the dozens of main gods, he is a figurehead, but in reality, he is one of the eleven rulers.
However, he had no conflicts with the many rulers.
If he doesn't go crazy and actively provoke others, how could those rulers possibly break the rules to deal with him?
The only one to be wary of is probably the arrogant and domineering Lord of Light, who has always been unhappy with the Magnolia Plane.
We don't need to worry too much about the master of fate right now.
"This interdimensional war is going to change its nature," Lei Sijing said with a smile.
"The emergence of a god who was created later is really... Even the most esteemed gods, if given a choice, would probably prefer to rely on their own efforts to become gods, right?" Lei Hong sighed.
“Lei Hong, you’re wrong about that,” Qing Huo laughed. “Many gods, even with the blessing of boundless faith, are still stuck at the fifth level in the fusion of the profound mysteries of the laws, unable to fuse all six mysteries to achieve perfection.”
"Do you think they have at least the potential to achieve the Great Perfection of the Four Elements and thus become the acquired supreme gods?"
The group nodded.
Indeed, among the dozens of main gods, only a few have reached the Great Perfection stage.
Some rulers haven't even reached perfection yet.
In fact, whether one becomes a lower-level god, a middle-level god, or a higher-level god depends entirely on luck.
Otherwise, if it really comes down to a contest of individual comprehension and aptitude, a whole bunch of main gods are not as good as a high-level god who has reached the Great Perfection!
No wonder Magnus said that when he died.
The Supreme God?
They're just a bunch of lucky people!
After that, Lin Lei's soul successfully mutated, and he truly gained a power of will.
His fight with Qinghuo was evenly matched.
Of course, when the two fought Cao Ya, they were easily crushed.
“A difference of ten thousand times, no wonder…” Lin Lei murmured.
Even now, he still has a strong sense of dreaminess.
How could he be comparable to the Great Perfection realm, and how could Cao Ya be comparable to the main god?
“However, with the four elements at their peak, one can become a main god…” A fiery light flashed in Linley’s eyes.
He has become a god through the four elements of earth, fire, water, and wind.
The understanding of fire-based laws is relatively low.
However, he has a strong comprehension of the other three laws.
Moreover, his soul successfully mutated, allowing him to fuse the profound mysteries of different laws.
Divine powers of different attributes can also be fused together.
He saw the hope of becoming the supreme god!
It's a powerful supreme god!
Boom!!!
Just then, a tremendous tremor shook the dimensional battlefield, causing mountains and rivers to tremble and the void to seem to crack open.
A dozen terrifying figures appeared in the sky above the dimensional battlefield, looking down at the earth.
Countless gods, even those at the Great Perfection stage, were deeply shaken and bowed in reverence.
"The Supreme God!"
Cao Ya, Qing Huo, Lin Lei, Bei Bei, Lei Sijing, and Lei Hong also emerged from the cave.
"Greetings, Lord God."
The four people bowed. No matter who the first group of main gods to appear were, they all had to show them reverence.
On the contrary, Cao Ya and Qing Huo only bowed to the pretty red-haired girl who was leading the group.
As for the other main gods...
They ignored it.
Lin Lei and the other three were startled and wanted to send a telepathic warning, but they knew very well that under the watchful eyes of any of the main gods, their telepathic communication would not escape the notice of any of them.
Moreover, the four of them were also surprised.
Because none of those main gods showed any anger.
It seemed that what Cao Ya and Qing Huo did was the most normal situation.
Now, the four of them were confused and their minds went blank.
"Linley, don't you know? Qinghuo, who comes from the same Magnolia Plane as you, is a low-level Great Perfection Fire God. As for Cao Ya... he's also a low-level God now, so he can't be regarded as a deity." The pretty red-haired girl said with a smile.
She glanced at the blue flame, then skipped over it.
Even if a lower-level main god has reached the Great Perfection stage, he is not worth her attention.
However, the main god Cao Ya is the one who will be reborn later...
"Fire, water, lightning, earth." The pretty red-haired girl's eyes flickered slightly.
"Cao Ya, the last time I saw you, you were only at the Great Perfection of two elements. In just a few short years, you have reached the Great Perfection of four elements."
"No wonder he was able to forge a path to becoming a post-natal deity!"
The pretty red-haired girl was amazed.
Cao Ya bowed slightly.
This goddess, who appears as a young girl, is the ruler of death in the underworld.
As the first life in the underworld, the age of the Lord of Death is beyond imagination.
She is also one of the rarest divine beasts, and is no weaker than the God-Eating Rat!
Even with all her might, Cao Ya was no match for the ruler of death.
Most of the main gods who appeared alongside the Lord of Death were lower-level main gods, with fewer mid-level main gods.
On the surface, Cao Ya is at the level of a lower-level main god.
Qinghuo was originally a lower-level fire-type deity.
Therefore, the two of them only need to bow to the Lord of Death.
Even the other Asura leaders, even those at the Great Perfection level, must maintain respect for every main god.
Unless you don't want to live anymore!
The supreme deity is too lazy to lower himself to make things difficult for the gods.
But what if a deity is deliberately offended...?
With a single thought, the supreme deity could annihilate the ruler.
A supreme god at the Great Perfection level cannot be erased by mere thoughts.
But if the real body were present, even a single finger could kill a Great Perfection Supreme God dozens of times over!
“Cao Ya, you will be a main god from now on. You should not participate in this interdimensional war,” said the Death Sovereign.
Cao Ya nodded.
Dimensional wars are a battlefield belonging to the higher gods.
His intervention as a supreme deity is indeed outrageous.
Fortunately, in the eyes of the Death Lord, Cao Ya only broke through to his current level after entering the dimensional battlefield.
Otherwise, the Lord of Death might feel that he has broken the rules and could very well convene a meeting of the main gods to put Cao Ya on trial.
At that point, Cao Ya will have no choice but to hide in the material plane.
"Qinghuo, you are a fire-type main god, you shouldn't be participating in the interdimensional war." The Death Sovereign looked at Qinghuo again and said indifferently.
“Death Lord, I am an avatar of the Earth God.” Qinghuo bowed and said, “Moreover, I did not participate in the battle; I merely entered the dimensional battlefield for travel.”
"As you all should know, I have just left the Magnolia Plane."
“I’ve never witnessed a once-in-a-trillion-year event like a dimensional war, so I’m quite curious.”
The Lord of Death nodded, indicating that he accepted Qinghuo's reasoning.
If even the Lord of Death has no objections, how could the dozen or so lower-level and middle-level main gods possibly jump out to refute them?
Furthermore, they have no conflicts with Cao Ya and Qing Huo.
Why make things so tense?!
At this moment, Lin Lei, Bei Bei, Lei Jing, and Lei Hong on the ground were all stunned.
Cao Ya was comparable to a lower-level main god, which was already known, so it wasn't surprising.
The idea that death is the master is understandable.
But the problem is...
Qinghuo, wasn't he supposed to be at the peak of the fire element? How did he suddenly become a fire elemental god?!
So, the people we've been chatting and laughing with all this time were actually two supreme gods?!
All four found it hard to believe.
But they had no choice but to believe it.
Who is the Death Ruler? One of the four strongest beings in the world. Would she lie?
"Death Lord, Qinghuo has violated the rules, and Cao Ya has also violated the regulations of the Plane War. In my opinion, these two should be executed! Since the Death Lord is unwilling to dirty his hands, then let me, the Light Lord, do it!"
Suddenly, a domineering voice echoed across the dimensional battlefield, as if he were the only supreme being in the world.
Immediately afterwards, another group of main gods appeared, their divine might awe-inspiring, shaking the entire dimensional battlefield.
Countless commanders and high-ranking divine soldiers remembered the four names: "Lord of Death," "Lord of Light," "Azure Fire," and "Cao Ya."
"These four people are all chief gods, right? Even chief gods can have conflicts?"
Everyone was curious, but they had no choice but to regretfully retreat into their shells.
With the main gods locked in a standoff, which higher-ranking deity dares to get involved?
That's just asking for death!
Somewhere, the Wind-elemental Grand Perfectionist "Byer" frowned, muttering to himself, "Isn't Cao Ya a dual-elemental Grand Perfectionist? How come..."
Suddenly, combining the previous commotion with that familiar scent, he realized an unbelievable possibility.
"Hiss~~~ No way!" Byr couldn't help pacing back and forth, his hands trembling.
“Cao Ya, since he has achieved the Great Perfection of two elements, it is indeed possible that he can achieve the Great Perfection of four elements. Could it be… could it be…”
Byr suddenly stopped, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
