When compared to the Four Divine Beast Family, the Augusta family held a significant advantage.
In everyone's understanding, Augusta, the Light Sovereign, was not a Divine Beast nor a special race. Merely its second-generation offspring numbered one hundred eighty-two. With trillions of years or tens of trillions of years more, it was hard to say whether the members of the Augusta family would eventually catch up to the Four Divine Beast Family.
At that time, there would undoubtedly be disputes over which of the Four Divine Beast Family and the Augusta family was the top family.
Even now, many people were analyzing this.
Some argued that the Four Divine Beast Family, with its members spread across billions of material planes, the Seven God Planes, and the Four Supreme Planes, was undeniably the number one family in terms of population.
Others countered that being number one in population didn't make it the top family. The Four Divine Beast Lord Gods had only five children, and while each was a powerful expert at the Asura Prefect level, the Augusta family was not inferior.
The second-generation Lord Gods had one hundred eighty-two children, and the strongest dozen or so were not much weaker than the children of the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods.
In terms of numbers, the Augusta family had several times the number of clan leaders of the Four Divine Beast Family, but in terms of high-end combat power, the Augusta family held the advantage.
However, these were all just discussions for now. Neither the Four Divine Beast Family nor the Augusta family were people they could afford to offend.
It had to be said that Augusta's move was truly brilliant.
It hadn't even taken a trillion years to fully replace the Sovereign's Emissaries it had lost. Moreover, those nearly two hundred Lord God Artifacts had greatly amplified Augusta's prestige among the Gods.
As a result, Augusta not only didn't go into hiding after losing its Sovereign's Emissaries but also greatly expanded its influence, astonishing the Lord Gods who had suffered heavy losses in the last Plane War.
...
Roy was unaware of these external matters.
At this moment, he was fully immersed in his cultivation.
And his Soul Power was slowly increasing with the passage of time.
Thirty-one thousand times.
Thirty-one thousand one hundred times.
Thirty-two thousand times.
Thirty-three thousand three hundred times...
Within Roy's sea of souls, inside the dark yellow, semi-transparent crystal diamond that had transformed from his earthy yellow diamond-shaped Godhead, the solidified Soul Power was enveloped by countless liquefied Soul Power.
Then, this liquefied Soul Power was absorbed by the solidified soul, causing the solidified Soul Power within Roy's Godhead to gradually increase, slowly filling the Godhead.
Every time Roy's Soul Power doubled, the solidified Soul Power within his Godhead would increase by a fraction.
It felt as if it were about to completely fill this semi-transparent, dark yellow Godhead.
Ten million years, one hundred million years, one billion years...
Ten billion years, one hundred billion years...
The solidified Soul Power within Roy's Godhead slowly climbed within the semi-transparent Godhead.
Thirty-one percent, thirty-two percent...
Thirty-eight percent, thirty-nine percent...
Forty percent!
"Boom!"
When Roy's Soul Power reached forty thousand times, a change occurred.
The solidified Soul Power began to contract inward. The state of "unity of man and heaven" that Roy maintained felt like numerous massive hammers, striking his Soul Power one by one.
Finally, it hammered the Soul Power that had already filled 40% of the Godhead down to 30%.
Although the total amount seemed to have decreased by 10%, Roy felt that his Soul Power had not diminished. Instead, its fundamental quality had significantly improved.
Slowly opening his eyes, Roy could clearly sense that his Willpower had once again greatly increased.
After testing it, he had a rough idea of how much his Willpower had increased this time.
When his Soul Power reached one thousand times, the Willpower inherent in Roy's soul was equivalent to 1.4 units of Paragon Willpower.
When his Soul Power reached ten thousand times, Roy's inherent Willpower reached 5.6 units of Willpower, which was 1.6 units more than a Low-level Lord God.
Now, after his Soul Power reached forty thousand times, his inherent Willpower had an additional 2.8 units, reaching an astonishing 8.4 units, which was 0.4 units more than an ordinary Law Sovereign.
In other words, Roy's current Willpower alone was 20% stronger than that of the first-generation Fate Sovereign Collet.
By now, Roy had also figured out the increase index of his Willpower.
The increase index of Roy's own soul's Willpower was the same as that of other Lord Gods.
However, while the Willpower index of other Gods was 1, the index of Roy's soul's Willpower was 1.4.
The Willpower of a Low-level Lord God was 4; Roy's Soul Golden Core initial stage was 5.6.
The Willpower of a Mid-level Lord God was 6; Roy's Soul Golden Core middle stage reached 8.4.
The Willpower of a Law Sovereign was 8. When Roy's soul reached the late stage of Golden Core, his Willpower would reach an astonishing 11.2!
Even now, Roy's own strength, combined with the Paragon Willpower and the amplification from his Lord God Artifact divine body, reached 10.4.
This was 0.2 units of Willpower stronger than the other three Rule Sovereigns who had not yet obtained Supreme Treasures.
Of course, compared to the strongest, Fate Sovereign Off, Roy was still 0.6 units of Willpower short.
After all, the other three Law Sovereigns had similar strength. Without obtaining a Supreme Treasure yet, their power was only 10.2. Only the Fate Sovereign Off, who still possessed 0.8 portions of Willpower from Augusta, the Light Sovereign, had reached 11!
Sensing the powerful Willpower within his soul, Roy's lips curved into a satisfied smile.
He had finally reached the pinnacle of the Coiling Dragon Universe.
Even if Off exposed his hidden Willpower in this battle that had lasted for a trillion years, Roy was confident he could emerge victorious.
And once he successfully secured the first Supreme Treasure mission from the Fate Sovereign Off this time and obtained a Supreme Treasure, Roy could safely develop for over a thousand yottayears.
By then, it was possible Roy himself would have completed the magical version of Star Transformation, broken through the limitations of the Magic Universe, and become the Hong Meng Controller before Lin Meng.
Closing his eyes to cultivate once more, Roy reluctantly opened them ten thousand years later.
As expected, after breaking through to the middle stage of the Soul Golden Core, the speed at which Roy's soul improved by mimicking the fluctuations of the heavenly laws had significantly decreased again.
Roy now strongly doubted whether the fluctuations of the heavenly laws in the Magic Universe could allow him to break through to the Soul Nascent Soul stage and reach the level of a Supreme God.
Even if it could, how much time would he need for secluded cultivation?
Shaking his head, Roy ended his cultivation.
"Lord Roy, you're out of seclusion."
As expected, Shelley was already waiting outside the door when Roy emerged from the cultivation chamber.
"Mhm."
Roy nodded, feeling quite pleased internally.
Every time he came out of seclusion, Shelley would be the first to greet him at the door.
This feeling of always being thought of was very good.
A slight curve appeared on his lips, and Roy walked towards his palace, with Shelley following closely.
"Shelley, how much time is left until the next Plane War?"
"Lord Roy, there are still thirty million years until the Plane War begins."
"Thirty million years?"
Roy gave a nod.
It seemed his calculations were correct, having successfully advanced a trillion years in advance.
"Then, have there been any major events in the past trillion years?"
"Yes, Lord Roy."
Shelley followed behind Roy, systematically recounting the intelligence she had gathered.
"The most significant event is the birth of a new Lord God."
"This new Lord God is a Lord God of the Destruction System. He has occupied the westernmost part of the Infernal Realm and named that continent the Kalosha Continent."
"The Kalosha Continent? The Kalosha Lord God?"
Another familiar Lord God.
It seemed that the newly promoted Lord Gods in the past few trillion years all had quite long lifespans.
Whether it was the Refining Fire Lord God and Skeleton Lord God under the Destruction Master, or the Theresia Lord God who joined his side, or the newly promoted Kalosha Lord God, they had all lived for over a thousand yottayears.
Well, in fact, that "Star Yi Lord God" should also have lived for over a thousand yottayears, but who asked him to charge forward with such arrogance and disdain back then?
In that situation, Roy would have felt he was letting Star Yi down if he hadn't acted.
"The second major event is that a powerful Lord God Family has appeared in the Light God Plane."
"According to the news from the members of the Four Divine Beast Family in the Light God Plane, this Lord God Family originated from Augusta, the Light Sovereign."
"It is said that Augusta has taken over a hundred thousand divine consorts. Over several hundred billion years, he has recorded a total of one hundred and eighty-two children, and it is unclear if there are any hidden ones."
"The Augusta Family is a super family established by the children of Augusta, the Light Sovereign. They have established their family base on Ao Wei Island in the Divine Prison Sea. Currently, all eighty-one islands within the Divine Prison Sea are controlled by the Augusta Family."
"Tsk, Augusta is really playing it up."
Hearing the news that Augusta, the Light Sovereign, had "given birth" to nearly two hundred children, Roy chuckled.
He had thought that by annihilating all the Emissaries of Off's lineage, they would be quiet for a while, but he hadn't expected Augusta to pull off such a stunt at this time.
By spreading his scandalous affairs so widely that even Gods knew about them, the other Lord Gods wouldn't even have the slightest inclination to investigate. This way, no one would try to find out if those children were actually Augusta, the Light Sovereign's biological offspring.
After all, how audacious would one have to be to dare to lay hands on a Lord God's concubine and have the Lord God raise children for someone else?
Not to mention, God-level experts could determine if their children were their own through bloodline sensing.
It was likely that Off, the Fate Sovereign, had put in considerable effort to ensure that those children could sense a bloodline connection to him.
That guy, he was something else.
