"Oh, right, Lord Roy, about three hundred billion years ago, Sister Gaia came back once."
"Oh?"
Roy was a bit surprised.
Ever since he told Gaia that if she successfully found the points of convergence for the six Profound Mysteries of Laws under the influence of the Power of Faith and reached the final step, he would give her an opportunity to attempt Paragon, Gaia had been in her own material plane for trillions of years.
She hadn't even returned during the last Plane War.
So, what was the reason for Gaia's visit this time?
"Sister Gaia said that for a while, some beings with white wings entered the plane she was in. They abducted many newborn infants and captured several women between the ages of seven and thirty-five."
"Of course, Sister Gaia killed most of these people, with only one escaping who was closest to the Planar Teleportation Array."
"Within a few years, more of these creatures entered Gaia's plane. However, to Gaia's surprise, their most important actions were to prioritize taking away those infants and women, with the secondary objective being to retrieve the bodies of their fallen comrades."
"With Gaia intentionally holding back, she killed the creatures who took the infants and plundered the women, allowing them to take their companions' bodies."
"After several decades passed like this, they came to Gaia's plane again. Gaia said that in the latest wave of attacks, she even saw beings she had killed before."
"So, she asked us to help investigate what kind of race these winged beings are, that they possess the means of resurrection."
"It's just that, even after so much time has passed, we've only managed to find out that the race Gaia mentioned is the Angel tribe from the God Plane of Light. As for why they have the means of resurrection, we haven't found that out yet."
Hearing Shelley's explanation, Roy knew that what Gaia had encountered were the "Angels" under Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
As for their plundering of infants and women, it was obvious that the infants were taken to be children for Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
The women, on the other hand, had sufficiently pure souls to be infused into the Angel Reincarnation Pool to be reborn as "Angels."
As for those fallen Angels?
After being reborn as Angels, their souls had already condensed into "Angel Hearts."
As long as the Angel Heart was not destroyed, it could be resurrected by placing it into the Angel Reincarnation Pool.
They were the most cost-effective biological weapons.
When Roy explained what he understood to Shelley, she looked full of regret.
"Lord Roy, are we that useless? Things we couldn't figure out after hundreds of billions of years, you figured out in an instant."
"Don't say that, Shelley."
Seeing his maid looking a bit dejected, Roy comforted her, "It's just that you don't understand matters between Lord Gods. I am a Lord God, so naturally, I know more than you do."
"In a moment, have someone deliver a message to Gaia. No, to all members of the Four Divine Beast Family currently in the material planes. Next time they encounter biological weapons like Angels, merely killing them physically won't suffice. Their 'Angel Hearts' must be directly destroyed to kill them completely."
"Okay, I'll pass on the order right away."
After Shelley left, Roy walked into the grand hall alone and sat on his divine throne.
Angels were a powerful trump card for Augusta, the Light Sovereign. Although they didn't have any top-tier experts, their mid-to-upper tier combat power far surpassed that of ordinary Sovereign Legions.
This way, it was equivalent to Augusta, the Light Sovereign, possessing two Sovereign Legions. Coupled with his over a hundred children who possessed Lord God Artifacts…
More importantly, as long as their Angel Hearts were not destroyed, these Angels could be reborn infinitely.
Roy spreading the existence of the Angel Heart was also with the intention of reducing Augusta's combat strength. As for the final outcome, that remained to be seen!
With his fingers lightly supporting his chin, Roy's thoughts wandered.
Currently, with his strength, he could steadily hold the position of fifth Rule Sovereign.
Beyond that, he still had a Water Sovereign Lord Godhead in his possession. When Gaia reached the final step, he would give her that High-level Lord Godhead.
If luck was on his side, the Four Divine Beast Lord God lineage would possess the first Law Sovereign of Paragon, whose strength would surpass that of Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
This way, the Star Sovereign lineage would completely become the foremost Lord God system.
Rule Sovereign: Roy
Law Sovereign: Water Sovereign Gaia, Four Divine Beast Lord Gods
Mid-level Lord Gods: Purple Jasmine High God, the separate Four Divine Beast Lord Gods
Low-level Lord Gods: Wind Element Paragon Low-level Lord God Theresia
This covered four Lord God levels, and within each level, the Lord Gods were the strongest.
"Heh heh…"
Thinking of this, even Roy was extremely pleased.
To personally lead his Lord God system to the very top, the sense of accomplishment was overwhelming!
However…
Death Sovereign…
Thinking of the Death Sovereign, Roy frowned slightly.
As it stood, if the Death Sovereign had no hidden strengths, her power was comparable to that of the Destruction Master and the Life Sovereign.
The next Plane War would be the tenth consecutive victory for the Death lineage Lord Gods. At that time, if no one intervened, the Death lineage Lord Gods would receive a Willpower reward, elevating the Death Sovereign's strength to the level of Destiny Sovereign Off, or even surpassing him.
"Never mind, with my current strength, even if the Death Sovereign receives the Willpower reward, I still have a chance of winning."
"The Plane War from now on can be abandoned."
"For the other Lord Gods, it's impossible to see a second ten-win streak."
After contemplating for a long time, Roy ultimately decided against ambushing the Death Sovereign in this Plane War.
The Death Sovereign had five Asura-level Sovereign's Emissaries, each possessing two Lord God Artifacts, while Roy only had Gaia on his side with two Lord God Artifacts.
If Roy's side were to launch an ambush, it's likely that besides Gaia, Gaisleith and his four brothers, along with Roy, and the Sovereign's Emissaries under the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods, would all perish in the Plane War.
Of course, this was probably also the last time the Death Sovereign would deploy these five Sovereign's Emissaries.
Once the secret of the ten-win streak in the Plane War was known, the other Lord Gods would not allow these five individuals under the Death Sovereign to continue rampaging in the Plane War.
Even the other three Law Sovereigns would not permit it!
Therefore, after the next Plane War, either the Death Sovereign would cease using these five Sovereign's Emissaries in the Plane War, or the Lord Gods would present a scapegoat to bear the blame for violating the Lord God agreement, recall the excess Lord God Artifacts, and accept punishment from the Law Sovereigns.
"Forget it, none of this concerns me."
"After three trillion years, I finally have true freedom…"
Closing his eyes, a relieved smile spread across Roy's lips as he began to sleep for the first time in trillions of years.
Indeed, only being invincible could bring him peace of mind…
"Roy…"
Shelley, stepping into the Lord God Palace, had intended to call out to Roy, but upon seeing his current state, she immediately stopped, quietly walked behind him, and stayed with him.
…
"Lord Roy, you're awake?"
"Mm."
Half-asleep, Roy heard Shelley's gentle voice and, upon opening his eyes, instantly regained consciousness.
"How long have I slept, Shelley?"
"Over three thousand years."
"That long…"
"It's not that long."
Shelley smoothly brewed a pot of tea, poured it into a cup, and handed it to Roy.
"Many Gods sleep for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years when they're bored. Lord Roy only slept for three thousand years this time, which is considered short."
Shelley's words were not an exaggeration.
Although Roy's cultivation path had been smooth sailing, people often assumed everyone was like Roy.
For others, every step of progress in strength was a monumental chasm.
How many people were stuck at Level Nine for hundreds of years and never comprehended even a sliver of the Profound Mysteries of Laws to become a Saint Realm before their death?
And how many Saint Realms, comprehending ninety-nine point nine nine nine nine percent of it, only to be just zero point zero zero zero one percent away, would remain forever unable to reach the God Realm?
Even after becoming a Demigod, the difficulty of comprehending the second type of Profound Mysteries of Laws was more than double that of the first. How many could successfully advance to God?
What about High-level Gods?
Who among those who achieved High-level God status independently wasn't a peerless prodigy?
Why did everyone know that their potential would be cut off after becoming a God by refining a Godhead, yet so many still chose to do so?
It was because they knew that with their own talent, their potential was not as high as it would be after refining a Godhead to become a God!
Once a person's potential was exhausted, and after billions of years without any progress, they dared not go out to fight and adventure. Disgusted with the monotonous, unchanging life of those billions of years, they chose to slumber, hoping to see something different after waking up tens of thousands of years later.
"Alright, you always have a point."
"However, now that I'm relaxed, I do feel a bit lost about what to do."
"The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods send some vital essence every ten million years. If Lord Roy doesn't know what to do, would you like to continue researching these things?" Shelley said, removing a spatial ring from her finger and handing it to Roy.
Roy hesitated for a moment before finally accepting Shelley's ring.
"Alright, with my Soul Power increased, the vital essence from my four brothers should allow me to gain a deeper understanding of the laws of time and space."
"Then Shelley, I'll entrust Star Island to you for these thirty million years."
"When the Plane War begins, just call me in the training room."
With that, Roy rose from his divine seat and walked towards the training room.
As he reached the doorway, Roy suddenly paused, turned his head, and said to Shelley, "Right, Shelley, you should also hand over your affairs during these years."
"After this Plane War concludes, we'll travel around the world and take a good look at this world together…"
"Mm."
