Chapter 172 - Chapter 172 – Material Planes Connected to the Planar Prisons

On this day, countless material planes became fully connected to their respective planar prisons. The magic formations originally used to isolate the prisons shattered one after another.

Those formidable beings who had once been imprisoned by Planar Overseers began breaking out of the planar prisons, causing massive upheaval across their home planes.

Nearly every material plane descended into chaos.

Yet, Sadius paid this no mind.

Now that he had become an Overgod, he found that his emotions had grown far more detached than before.

In the past, back when he resided in the Yulan Plane, he had still worried that people escaping from the planar prison might bring disaster to the Yulan continent.

But now, as an Overgod, such sentiments seemed to no longer affect him.

Across nearly all the planes, the Planar Overseers were ruthlessly beaten by the God-level powerhouses who had suddenly escaped their prisons. After all, most of them had been imprisoned by these very Overseers.

Some top-tier experts even directly killed the Overseers of their respective planes.

One must know that Planar Overseers were backed by Sovereign Legions—normally no one dared to provoke them.

Even if a Planar Overseer detained someone unjustly, that person would usually just resign themselves to fate.

However, quite a few of the powerhouses who had been imprisoned held deep grudges. Even though the Overseers who had originally locked them away had long since been rotated out, the escaped experts still took revenge on the current Overseers of their home planes.

One by one, these Overseers reported the prison break incidents to their superiors, and soon the news spread to the ears of all the Sovereigns.

Countless God-level beings had escaped from the planar prisons across the material planes? Some had even killed the Overseers?

If this had happened in only a small number of material planes, the Sovereigns could have simply dispatched their Sovereign Legions to suppress the trouble.

But now, God-level beings had escaped in nearly every material plane.

Even if the Sovereigns deployed all of their legions, they might still be unable to resolve the situation.

The number of material planes was simply too vast.

Moreover, the number of God-level beings in the material planes now far exceeded those during the days of the Faith Wars.

The Sovereigns had their minds entirely focused on the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm. They had no interest in managing the mess in the material planes.

Currently, the Sovereign Legions of the various factions were fiercely clashing within the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm. If they were to shift forces away to the material planes, their strength in the Aether Realm would weaken—so they had no choice but to turn a blind eye to the chaos in the material planes.

Aether Supreme Overgod Realm.

The Sovereign Legion under the Lord of Light was in a brutal battle with the legion under Hurley. Due to covert interference from the other four Chief Sovereigns, the two sides were evenly matched in power. Claiming control over this planar teleportation array was no easy task.

The Lord of Light had already sent many powerhouses to the planar battlefield.

Adding to that, his Twelve-Winged Angel Corps had been left behind to support Orloff, so Augusta's side was short on high-level powerhouses.

Fortunately, Augusta directly requested help from Orloff, and the Sovereigns under Orloff responded, dispatching their Sovereign Legions to join the fray.

Only then did the two sides reach a balance, each contending fiercely over control of the teleportation array.

That day, the Sovereign Legion under the Lord of Light temporarily seized control of the teleportation array.

The elders of the Augusta Clan were entertaining the elite troops of the legion.

Everyone was in a celebratory mood.

"Fourth Elder, now that we've taken control of the teleportation array, we must quickly plan out the construction of a base city. The Sovereigns have decreed that combat is forbidden within cities—this rule applies to every divine plane, and there's no statement saying it doesn't apply here in the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm. So, as long as we build a city around the teleportation array, the enemy Sovereign Legions won't be able to attack us," said a strategic-minded subordinate to the Augusta elder overseeing the Aether Realm battlefield.

The Fourth Elder of the Augusta Clan found the logic sound and immediately ordered personnel to begin construction.

Building a city was an effortless task for a Sovereign Legion.

In short order, a new city was erected.

When the Thunder Sovereign's legion charged once again, they were stunned to find a city had suddenly sprung up.

Applying the divine plane rules of the Four Higher Planes and Seven Divine Planes to the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm—were they actually supposed to follow them here?

For a moment, the Thunder Sovereign's forces didn't dare enter the city.

Even the more than sixty Sovereigns watching the battle were dumbfounded—could they really just build a city to encircle the teleportation array like that?

As all the Sovereigns pondered the validity of this tactic…Chaos suddenly erupted within the newly built city.

A peak-tier Shura powerhouse had teleported from a material plane straight into the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm, landing directly inside the teleportation array.

Since the Aether Realm had connected to the other planes, people would occasionally arrive here—but they were mostly at the Saint-level, with only a few Gods, and even fewer Highgods.

As for top-tier Shura powerhouses, they were usually from other divine planes; none had yet come from a material plane.

The Sovereign Legions treated these arrivals from material planes no differently than before—after all, how powerful could a native from a material plane possibly be?

But this particular Shura-level powerhouse, upon arriving, found himself in a city…one teeming with a mighty military force.

He had only wanted to start a new life in the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm, having long since let go of his attachments in the material plane.

Long ago, just after becoming a God, he had been imprisoned by a Planar Overseer. After countless years in confinement, he had become a top-tier Highgod, just one step away from becoming a Great Perfection Highgod.

When the planar prison suddenly reconnected with the material plane, he returned—only to find that his home continent had long since sunk beneath the waves. His former family and friends were all gone.

He originally sought to take revenge on the Overseer who had imprisoned him.

But so many years had passed—Planar Overseers had been rotated out multiple times.

The current Overseer naturally wasn't the same one who had locked him away.

He didn't go on a rampage in the material plane. Instead, he chose to leave and seek a new life in a divine plane.

Upon hearing that the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm had just been born, he decided to go there.

But upon his arrival, he encountered someone he never expected to see—

The very Planar Overseer who had once imprisoned him.

The moment he saw the Overseer, he struck without hesitation.

As a peak Shura-level expert, the Sovereign Legion troops were no match for him.

Before long, he had slaughtered over a hundred of them.

When Augusta heard of the incident, he—already filled with suppressed rage—immediately summoned his Sovereign projection and resolved to personally kill this Highgod from the material plane to vent his fury.
