Chapter 132: Material Defense Supreme Artifact
"You're dreaming; this Supreme God's Relic, I'd rather give it to the Fate Sovereign or the Destruction Sovereign than to you," Inas said with hatred: "Once the relic is in their hands, you won't have any chance left."
"You're right, but your final god avatar is certainly doomed to die," Xiao En said coldly.
Inas laughed heartily: "Doomed to die? On the Material Plane, who can kill me? Even if you bring the Great Perfection, do you think it would be my opponent?"
Having two Lord God avatars gives his wind-type god avatar double the willpower, and with three primary artifacts, the Great Perfection Higher God has arrived, still not an opponent.
Xiao En smiled lightly: "Great Perfection may not be your opponent, but what about the Lord God? Don't forget, I now hold the Lord God Core of the Four Divine Beasts; on this plane, finding an independent Earth, Water, Fire, or Wind Higher God shouldn't be hard."
Even if you can now control the entire plane, the four Supreme Planes and the seven Great God Planes will always have a Higher God originating from this plane, right?
As soon as the words fell, Inas's face changed dramatically; it was indeed a huge threat, so he said: "Are you willing to waste a Lord God Core?"
Xiao En said coldly: "It's not wasteful; exchanging one Lord God Core for a Supreme God's Relic is still a good deal, and the person I choose will be loyal to me, so it's all profit."
Inas remained silent.
Xiao En continued smiling: "How's your consideration? Even if you give the Supreme God's Relic to the Fate Sovereign, he still can't protect your life.
Give it to me, and at least on this Material Plane, you can become the eternal strongest, and no one can trouble you!"
"Give me the wind-type Lord God Core, and I'll give you the Supreme God's Relic," Inas said again.
"Stop dreaming; the Lord God Core is impossible to give you," Xiao En said indifferently: "The bottom line is you give me the relic, and I won't kill your final Higher God avatar; otherwise, I'll go to the God Plane right now to find this plane's Higher God!"
They are already mortal enemies; Xiao En can allow a Higher God to continue living, but absolutely cannot allow a Lord God enemy, even if it's just a lower Lord God.
Since the extermination of its mid-level Lord God avatar, this outcome was destined.
"You..." Inas was extremely resentful, but he also recognized the gap between them now, and Xiao En was right: once he finds this plane's Earth, Water, Fire, or Wind Higher God and refines a Lord God Core for him, that being could easily annihilate him.
Finally, he said: "Fine, I can give you the Supreme God's Relic, but you must swear a Supreme God oath that the Lord God Core in your hand shall not be given to any living being of this plane."
"Fine, the Lord God Core is such a treasure; how could I possibly give it to outsiders," Xiao En said with a faint smile: "I, Xiao En, swear by the Death Supreme God that as long as Inas gives me the Supreme God's Relic— the Hidden Source Crystal— I guarantee…"
After the Supreme God oath was completed, Inas took a jet-black crystal from his spatial ring, glanced at it, suppressed the lingering reluctance in his eyes, and tossed it to Xiao En, saying: "This is the Hidden Source Crystal; it's yours now. Remember your oath."
Xiao En's energy avatar received the Hidden Source Crystal, felt its aura identical to the previous two relics, rejoiced greatly in his heart— all three Supreme God's Relics were now in his possession.
He then said: "Rest assured, from now on you can stay peacefully on this plane; no Lord God or Great Perfection can harm you."
A god-level being is clearly no threat to Xiao En, so there's no need to actually waste a Lord God Core.
After speaking, the Material Plane's space split open a crack dozens of meters wide, and Xiao En's energy avatar retreated through it.
Within the spatial turbulence, Xiao En's Lord God avatar took the Hidden Source Crystal and immediately returned at top speed to the Qingyuan Material Plane.
After refining the Life Lord God Core, his strength increased a hundredfold and his speed surged; in no time he arrived at the Qingyuan Plane.
He retrieved from another spatial family a spear already fused together; the moment it appeared, the Hidden Source Crystal and the spear were drawn together by an invisible force, gradually merging into one.
This force was so bizarre that even a dual-element soul-mutated Lord God like Xiao En couldn't discern it clearly, not even understanding what kind of force it was; the Supreme God's power is beyond the Lord God's level—not merely a difference of energy and willpower between god-level and Lord God—but the Supreme God's nature is incomprehensible.
After the three relics combined, "Boom—", between heaven and earth a massive energy began to gather, the aura of destruction spread throughout the surrounding space; before this power, Xiao En could only feel his own insignificance.
In a short while, the destructive energy in the sky materialized into a black silhouette—the Destruction Supreme God: "The sixth Supreme God mission between heaven and earth is also the second Supreme God mission I issued."
"Shawn Walker, you have completed it. According to the rules, you may make a request of me; as long as I can fulfill it, I will help you."
Xiao En tentatively asked: "I want the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind four-element talents and soul mutation."
This is currently the only known method of transcendence; the original text even mentioned Hong Meng, and if there are additional god avatars, it could also work.
The Destruction Supreme God said: "No, any living being's talent is inherent to its soul; it's part of the cosmic law, and even the Supreme God cannot interfere or alter it."
As for soul mutation, I can allow any living being to enter a soul-mutated state, but whether it succeeds I don't care; you are already soul-mutated, so you cannot further mutate.
"Then make a different request!"
"Then I wish to obtain a body strength of Supreme Artifact level," Xiao En said again.
The Destruction Supreme God said: "No, a Supreme Artifact is not about high hardness; it is part of the rules, and a living being cannot reach that strength. I can give you either a Supreme Artifact or a Primary Artifact level body strength."
Xiao En then probed: "Then I want each of my god avatars to receive ten units of willpower reward?"
The Destruction Supreme God said: "No, I can give you a willpower reward, but only one unit, and it must be for a single god avatar."
【Indeed, the bugs are all restricted; no wonder the previous Sovereigns who completed the tasks all chose the Supreme Artifact.】
Xiao En also understood that this was probably set by Hong Meng, so he made a final probe: "Then I want a death-attributed attack Supreme Artifact, sword-shaped."
With his current willpower, his physical defense has no real weakness; obtaining an attribute-matching attack Supreme Artifact would be more cost-effective, though it's uncertain if it's possible.
The Destruction Sovereign continued ruthlessly: "No, as the Destruction Supreme God, I can only give you a Destruction-attributed Supreme Artifact; if you want a death attribute, you must complete the Death Supreme God's mission."
"Then I choose a material defense Supreme Artifact," Xiao En finally made his request.
This was actually within his expectations.
The Destruction Supreme God said indifferently: "Fine, I will fulfill your request."
After he finished speaking, a massive amount of destructive energy gathered again, quickly forming a black armor.
"This is the Destruction-attributed material defense Supreme Artifact; only a Lord God level can claim it as master." The Destruction Supreme God added: "Xiao En Walker, I have completed your request."
After speaking, the energy between heaven and earth gradually dissipated, the Destruction Supreme God's silhouette faded, disappearing in a manner Xiao En could not comprehend.
Everything between heaven and earth returned to normal.
"Supreme Artifact." Xiao En looked at the armor before him, a drop of fresh blood fell onto it, and the Destruction Supreme God's armor instantly merged into Xiao En's body surface.
Xiao En laughed joyfully: "Ha ha, with my current strength, my defense is absolutely invincible."
With a material defense Supreme Artifact, he naturally fears no other physical attack Supreme Artifacts, and regarding the soul, even Ouf should be comparable; even after countless billions of years of deep soul research, Ouf could not threaten him.
In fact, at the Lord God level, aside from the overpowered technique of the Four Divine Beasts' combined talent divine skill, everything else mainly relies on willpower.
And the corpses and essence blood of the Four Divine Beasts are all in his possession; even if he can't decipher them, as long as they aren't in others' hands it's fine, otherwise, theoretically Ouf could wield the Four Divine Beasts' combined talent divine skill, which could threaten him.
……
After returning to his palace on the Material Plane, Xiao En immediately set up a formation according to the magical array prepared by Breller years ago, and then extracted the Four Divine Beasts' corpses.
These four massive corpses were enormous; Xiao En's divine energy surged on his body as he extracted their essence blood from them.
A few days later, all 300 drops of the Four Divine Beasts' essence blood were extracted; looking at the blood in his hand, Xiao En carefully stored it in the spatial ring of his Life Lord God avatar.
Now, as before, the Death Lord God avatar can go out, while the Life Lord God avatar remains on the Material Plane, continuing to study the profound mysteries or the Four Divine Beasts' combined talent divine skill; this is absolutely safe, after all the Life Lord God avatar now possesses the power of an ordinary Great Perfection Sovereign.
After the arrangement was completed, Shawn's Death Law Lord Deity avatar went directly through a teleportation array to the Underworld; after the dual‑element Lord Deity's consciousness dispersed, none of the Underworld's Lord Deities detected his probing.
"That's really convenient, haha— even if the power doesn't increase, this alone is satisfying," Shawn felt a surge of joy.
Among Lord Deities, even the Great Perfect Ruler's probing can be detected by lower Lord Deities; there are no secrets between Lord Deities. However, after an agreement, each has its own territory, and they essentially do not interfere with each other, and even a Ruler will not casually violate a lower Lord Deity's privacy.
Without communicating with other Lord Deities, Shawn directly locked onto the direction of his Youluo Domain and arrived before a large island.
The island, which could be called a small continent, was created long ago when Shawn commissioned a lower Great Underworld Lord Deity to form it within the Youluo Sea; spanning hundreds of millions of li, it was named Youluo Island, also the headquarters of the Walker family, and Shawn sometimes resides there.
Inside a large mountain range at the center of Youluo Island, a woman was in seclusion cultivating when she suddenly received a voice transmission: "Bu Lai Er, come out for a moment."
"Yes, father." Upon hearing the Lord Deity father's voice, Bu Lai Er immediately flew out, saw Shawn hovering in the air, and bowed, saying: "Father."
Shawn smiled and asked, "You've been in the Underworld for many years; how is your Water Law cultivation?"
Bu Lai Er replied with a smile, "Reporting, father, I have already integrated three mysteries of the Water Law. Cultivating the Water Law in the Underworld is far stronger than on the Material Plane; I am confident I can integrate a fourth."
"Haha, very good, your talent is acceptable," Shawn smiled. He naturally did not expect his descendants to possess a talent close to the Great Perfect level—a near‑impossible probability—and then said, "Take your Water Lord Deity avatar with you back to the Qingyuan Plane; a great opportunity awaits you there."
"Opportunity? The Water Lord Deity avatar I have here is already present," Bu Lai Er was curious but did not ask further.
Shawn immediately wielded Lord Deity power, enveloped his daughter, and vanished in a flash; shortly after, the two returned to a desert on the Qingyuan Plane.
Shawn produced a crystal emitting teal light and said to his daughter, "Bu Lai Er, this is the higher‑tier Lord Deity core of the Water Law; refine it."
Whether one has talent is innate; even beings like Ao Fu and Utreid cannot change it. Even if Shawn wishes to become a Ruler, without Water Law talent he cannot refine this Ruler's divine core;
Since he cannot refine it himself, the higher‑tier Lord Deity core will naturally be given to his descendants; Bu Lai Er is one of his two most outstanding offspring.
"Higher‑tier Lord Deity core? Ruler?" Bu Lai Er was startled; having a Lord Deity core was one thing, but it being higher‑tier was another.
That means once she refines it, she will become a great Water Ruler, one of the eleven most powerful beings between Heaven and Earth.
Shawn smiled faintly, "Refine it first; later I'll explain slowly."
"Alright." Bu Lai Er, excited, let a drop of fresh blood fall onto the Lord Deity core ahead, "Boom~" The Heaven and Earth Law descended, a torrent of teal liquid Lord Deity power enveloped Bu Lai Er, and the Lord Deity core slowly merged into her head.
A new Water Ruler was born.
After the Heaven and Earth Law receded, Bu Lai Er exclaimed joyfully, "So this is the power of will, this is the feeling of a Lord Deity."
"You have plenty of time to experience it gradually; first, let me tell you what happened," Shawn smiled and recounted everything, except for the part about his own soul mutation.
Bu Lai Er, after listening, said, "I see, father also used the combined innate divine skill of the Four Divine Beasts to strike Inas, which gave him confidence to kill him."
Shawn nodded in agreement, "Correct. If Inas were not wounded by the Four Divine Beasts' combined innate divine skill, I could only claim confidence in defeating him; killing him would be unlikely, especially since his life's middle‑tier divine avatar remains on the Material Plane, making any move impossible."
