The Death Sovereign's lineage versus the Dark Lord God's lineage!
"Rumble..."
The Plane War seemed to sense that this war was different, causing dark clouds to gather in the sky above it. Lightning bolts streaked through the clouds, wreaking havoc everywhere.
Occasionally, some lightning bolts would dissipate midway.
This was because they had the misfortune of encountering hidden spatial rifts in the air, and were sucked into the spatial turbulence...
In the Dark God Plane, the Plane War's dimensional portal lit up with starlike radiance, signifying the commencement of the Dark God Plane's war!
Although it was the Dark God Plane's war, this time, the Dark God Plane's Sovereign Legions had completely become supporting characters.
Facing the murderous Destiny Sovereign's faction, the participating Lord God soldiers of the Dark God Plane were like docile lambs huddled in a corner. Only after the Destiny Sovereign's faction's Lord God soldiers entered the Plane War first did they follow behind them with trepidation.
At this moment, the Sovereigns outside the Plane War finally had their eyes opened.
Within the Plane War, from the spatial gates of the two battlefronts, a large number of Sovereign Legion soldiers poured out, like black ants, seemingly intending to fill the Plane War.
There were no rehearsals, no practice runs.
Upon entering the battlefield, the soldiers of both sides tacitly began to slaughter each other.
Using the Galaxy as a boundary, from time to time, soldiers from the Destiny Sovereign's faction would charge into the Netherworld's side, only to be driven back.
Similarly, if the Netherworld's side managed to attack the Dark God Plane's side, they would be repelled by the Destiny Sovereign's faction's soldiers within a short period.
In terms of the number of Sovereign Legion soldiers, both sides were roughly equal.
The Netherworld side had seven Sovereign Legions: the Death Sovereign, the Refining Fire Lord God, the Skeleton Lord God, the Cang Lan Lord God, the Nine Nether Lord God, the Undead Lord God, and the North Bone Lord God.
The Dark God Plane's side had seven Sovereign Legions: Destiny Sovereign Off, Earth Master Manlu, Fire Element Lord God Potel, Wind Element Lord God Mu Ya, Destiny Low-level Lord God Karl, Destiny Mid-level Lord God Okasi, and Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
However, in terms of Asura-level powerhouses, the Destiny Sovereign's side was significantly weaker.
The Destiny Sovereign's side, including Augusta, the Light Sovereign, had a total of two Sovereigns, one Mid-level Sovereign, and four Low-level Sovereigns, with a total of twenty-eight Sovereign's Emissaries.
But Destiny Sovereign Off's Sovereign Legion had been crippled by the Star Sovereign's faction two trillion years ago, with four Sovereign's Emissaries killed in action, requiring four trillion years to recover their numbers.
To increase their chances of winning, Off had even used his last two Sovereign's Emissary slots, so currently, the Destiny Sovereign side had twenty-four Sovereign's Emissaries possessing Lord God Artifacts, with the weakest being Seven-star Demons. With the Lord God Artifacts, they were not much weaker than Asuras.
On the Death Sovereign's side, over the past trillion years, no Sovereign's Emissary had died. There was one Mid-level Sovereign, five Low-level Sovereigns, and a total of fourteen Sovereign's Emissaries.
The Death Sovereign had previously only had one emissary, Shelley, with seven slots remaining.
Of the fifteen Lord God Artifacts that Roy had thrown into the Netherworld, five were soul defense Lord God Artifacts whose recipients were kept secret and known to few. The remaining ten Lord God Artifacts were obtained by powerful Asuras or Seven-star Demons in the Netherworld. All ten of these individuals were directly and dominantly brought to Netherworld Mountain by the Death Sovereign.
The five strongest Asuras were taken as Sovereign's Emissaries by the Death Sovereign on the spot and bestowed with corresponding Lord God Artifacts. The remaining five were enticed with the last two Sovereign's Emissary slots by the Death Sovereign to participate in this Plane War.
As a result, although the Death Sovereign's side only had nineteen Sovereign's Emissaries, each of them was an Asura-level powerhouse, and five Asuras possessed both material defense Lord God Artifacts and attack Lord God Artifacts.
The remaining five Seven-star Demons also possessed Lord God Artifacts, barely qualifying them as Asura-level powerhouses.
After the war began, the soldiers on both sides entered a meat grinder. Even with everyone possessing Sovereign Power, the soldiers' death rate did not decrease.
And the Asura-level commanders were truly fighting fiercely in the sky, as if the heavens and earth were dark.
After using Sovereign Power, the attacks of these Asuras could tear through the space of the Plane War. Terrifying spatial rifts spread across the battlefield, and many Sovereign Legion soldiers were not killed by enemy soldiers but by the aftershocks of the Asuras' battles and the spatial rifts they tore.
As the battle progressed, once commanders were spotted being drawn into the fray, soldiers on both sides would stop fighting and flee the battlefield quickly.
Fighting against enemy soldiers still offered a chance of survival.
But being caught in the battles of the big shots meant certain death.
Generally speaking, in battles involving nearly ten million soldiers between the Destiny Sovereign's faction and the Death Sovereign's faction, attacks launched by hundreds of thousands of soldiers using formations could directly kill Asura-level powerhouses.
But unfortunately, the number of soldiers on both sides was similar, and they were all seeking out spaces to fight and kill.
There were as many as forty-eight commander-level powerhouses. For these soldiers, every pair of battling powerhouses was a disaster.
Under these circumstances, the soldiers' formations were often broken.
In such large-scale battles, once their formations were broken, their attacks and defenses would lose the boost from the military formations, and they would quickly be annihilated by the enemy's intact formations.
For a time, the sky of the entire Plane War was filled with blood-colored mist.
Roy and the other Sovereigns remained indifferent to all of this.
It was as if those below, who were fighting, were not their subordinates, but merely insignificant ants.
In reality, this was also normal.
In the Magic Universe, reaching the Saint Realm, which comprehended a trace of the Profound Mysteries of Laws, granted endless lifespan.
But in reality, how many people could actually survive?
Roy, for example, was now over three trillion years old, and the Sovereign soldiers who followed him had already gone through three generations.
Currently, the ones he was still familiar with among the Star Sovereign's Legion were Gaia, Shelley, Nathaniel, and Charles.
Beyond them, Roy didn't have much memory.
This was reality.
Ever since becoming a Sovereign, only those who lived long enough would occupy a place in Roy's memories.
Similarly, the longer they spent together, the more important they would become in Roy's heart.
Shelley, who had been by Roy's side since his rise, was long past being described simply as a "maid" to him.
Otherwise, Roy wouldn't have strained his relationship with Destiny Sovereign Off over a hair tie of Shelley's.
For the first few thousand years, the Destiny Sovereign faction held a slight advantage over the Death Sovereign faction in terms of overall presence.
After all, the Death Sovereign faction only had six Sovereign Legions.
The Destiny faction, however, had the Destiny Sovereign's six Sovereign Legions, plus another Sovereign Legion jointly formed by the Sovereigns of the Dark God Plane.
Although it was a ragtag army, its numbers exceeded five hundred thousand, capable of tying down a portion of the Death Sovereign faction's forces.
But in the following thousands of years, the situation reversed.
The five new Sovereign's Emissaries that the Death Sovereign had recently acquired all possessed Lord God Artifacts for material defense and offensive/defensive capabilities. After killing their opponents, they went to assist others in their own faction.
Under these circumstances, the Asura Commanders of the Destiny Sovereign faction quickly fell into a disadvantage. Except for those Asuras who possessed Lord God Artifacts for material defense and could still barely hold on, the other Asura Commanders had already begun to fight and retreat.
With several Asura Commanders freed up, the soldiers of the Death Sovereign faction advanced like a hot knife through butter, swiftly conquering the Galaxy on the side of the Destiny Sovereign faction.
At this point, the battlefield in the second Galaxy became even more brutal.
The current situation was extremely unfavorable to the Destiny Sovereign faction. However, as long as they concentrated their forces and held the Galaxy, preventing the Death Sovereign faction from breaking through, they would have completed their mission and successfully halted the Death Sovereign faction's winning streak.
Unfortunately, once all the Asura-level powerhouses of the Destiny Sovereign faction were killed, they no longer had any chance.
Especially after utilizing the Sovereign Power, those five individuals who possessed two Lord God Artifacts went on a rampage within the Destiny Sovereign faction's ranks.
The attacks from soldiers who couldn't form battle formations, even if they all used Sovereign Power, couldn't penetrate the defenses of Asuras with Lord God Artifacts for material defense. They were simply slaughtered by the Death Sovereign's forces.
At this moment, the Sovereigns in the sky above the Plane War battlefield all knew that the Death Sovereign faction had won this Plane War again.
Some bolder Sovereigns secretly cast sideways glances at the Destiny Sovereign faction.
As expected, anger could be seen on the faces of several Sovereigns.
According to supplementary agreements in the Sovereigns' pact, if a Sovereign's Emissary died, it would take a quadrillion years to restore their position. If two died, it would take two quadrillion years to restore the Emissary positions.
Currently, the greatest loss for the Destiny Sovereign faction was borne by Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
He had invested eight Sovereign's Emissaries this time, and all of them were annihilated. This meant that for the next eight quadrillion years, Augusta, the Light Sovereign, would have no Sovereign's Emissaries to carry out his tasks.
And in the God Plane, where Sovereigns could not interfere in matters between Gods, eight quadrillion years would likely see Augusta, the Light Sovereign's reputation in the God Plane overshadowed by the fame of other Sovereigns.
Off was in a similar situation.
However, Off was better off. His subordinate low-level Sovereigns only lost two Sovereign's Emissaries, so in two quadrillion years, he wouldn't be without subordinates.
It was just that if Off didn't possess absolute military might, his subordinate Sovereigns might be contemplating defecting to other Rule Sovereigns right now.
"Heh heh, I'm sorry, Lord Off. You failed to stop the Death Sovereign faction's winning streak."
"It seems this hair tie in my hand is not destined to be yours, my Lord Sovereign."
Seeing that the situation on the battlefield had become clear, Roy looked up and said to Off with a smile.
Off, in turn, turned his deep gaze towards Roy.
