Before Destiny Sovereign Off could speak, Roy beat him to the punch, setting the time for their battle.
Although Destruction Sovereign Utred and Death Sovereign Lilia had both spoken, pushing him into the position of Law Sovereign, Roy knew they must have misunderstood him.
Or rather, their imaginations had run wild, leading to a misjudgment of his strength.
Roy had no idea what Destruction Sovereign Utred was thinking.
However, regarding Death Sovereign, Roy was eighty percent sure that she believed he possessed a powerful technique capable of turning spatial turbulence into spatial voids, which was why she thought Roy was qualified to be on par with a Law Sovereign.
Roy had a clear understanding of himself. Fighting Destiny Sovereign Off now would be like throwing an egg against a rock, a sure path to death.
Well, at best, he might take Destiny Sovereign Off down with him into oblivion.
But if the battle were postponed for another trillion years…
"Lord Off, we can establish a contract and set some stakes for our battle."
"After the trillion-year Plane War concludes, if Lord Off wins, I will not only reveal what is obtained after reaching a certain number of consecutive victories on the Plane War, but I will also hand over that hair tie you desire with both hands."
"Do you speak the truth?"
Upon hearing this, Off could no longer entertain his other concerns. His eyes lit up as he stared intently at Roy.
Off's pursuit of strength was etched into his very being.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have allocated all other emotions that might hinder him to Augusta, the Light Sovereign, so he could focus solely on researching how to enhance his strength.
Currently, Off valued two things the most.
Firstly, the task from the Life Supreme God. Completing the Supreme God's task allowed one to make a request of the Life Supreme God.
Off already had plans for this; his first request would be a Supreme Treasure for soul defense.
This was not only to ensure Augusta, the Light Sovereign, could safely follow his arrangements to deal with the Four Divine Beast Lord Gods in the future, but also after witnessing Star Sovereign Roy's technique "Tsukuyomi" several hundred billion years ago, Off felt it would be beneficial to have an additional Supreme Treasure for soul defense!
Secondly, it was the secret of the Plane War.
It was certain that reaching a certain number of consecutive victories in the Plane War would lead to some strange changes.
Clearly, Star Sovereign Roy knew about these changes.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have tried so hard to prevent others from gaining more consecutive victories.
If he could obtain the final item for the Supreme God's task and the secret of the Plane War's consecutive victories from Star Sovereign, Off wouldn't mind postponing the battle until a trillion years later.
"I speak the truth!"
"Good!"
"I sign this contract!"
Seeing Destiny Sovereign Off about to sign the contract in the name of the Supreme God, Roy quickly stopped him.
Did this old fellow want to play a trick on him?
Did he really think Roy was an idiot?
"Lord Off, since I've stated what I'll give up if I lose, it's not unreasonable for me to want something if Lord Off loses, is it?"
Off wasn't angry at being stopped by Star Sovereign.
He had just been trying his luck.
After all, no matter what Star Sovereign wanted from him, if he won, Star Sovereign would get nothing.
"Very well, Star Sovereign, what do you wish to obtain from this old man?"
In his good mood, Off even began addressing Roy as "Lord."
Was this a response to Roy calling him "Lord Off"?
"What I want…"
Next, Roy smiled and transmitted his thoughts to Off using his Spiritual Sense.
After hearing what Roy needed, Off's pupils contracted sharply.
This, how was this possible?
He was certain that after obtaining the Supreme God's Judgment, he had only shown it to Augusta, the Light Sovereign.
This meant that, aside from Augusta, even the Sovereign's Emissaries who helped him collect the Supreme God's tokens were unaware of the Supreme God's task.
How could Star Sovereign know?
Could it be that the Supreme God's task he received was not the first one?
Had Star Sovereign Roy already accepted and completed a Supreme God's task and received the Supreme God's reward?
Thinking of this, Off's eyes narrowed slightly.
No wonder Star Sovereign could achieve what he had as a mere Mid-level Lord God.
He just didn't know which Supreme God's task he had completed, nor what request he had made.
Was it like him, wanting the Supreme God to bestow a Supreme Treasure?
If so, what kind of Supreme Treasure did Star Sovereign Roy have?
A Supreme Treasure for soul defense?
A Supreme Treasure for physical defense?
Or an offensive Supreme Treasure?
At this moment, Destiny Master Off suddenly lost the absolute confidence he had just moments ago.
"Good, I agree."
"Lord Off is so generous!"
"Then, let's establish a contract!"
"I, Star Sovereign Roy, in the name of the Supreme God, establish a contract with Destiny Master Off..."
"In ten trillion years, we will have a fair battle. If I lose, I will inform Destiny Master Off of the secret to consecutive victories on the Plane War battlefield, and I will..."
Saying this, Roy turned to look at Off.
"Butterfly Dance Chain."
"And I will give the Butterfly Dance Chain to Off. If I violate this contract, I will be stripped of my Lord Godhead by the Supreme God and fall from the position of Lord God!"
Off's brow twitched upon hearing Roy's contract.
Was this guy ruthless, or was he afraid of dying?
After refining the Lord Godhead, the soul had already merged with it. If the Lord Godhead were stripped away, one would naturally die.
This was truly ruthless.
But then he added the part about falling from the position of Lord God. Was he trying to get the Supreme God to spare his life when stripping his Lord Godhead?
He was a coward!
However, this suited Destiny Master Off perfectly.
He still had a clone of Augusta, the Light Sovereign. If the Supreme God could truly strip the Lord Godhead without taking a life, then Augusta could just seize another Destiny-aligned Lord Godhead later.
Who knew, perhaps the next Destiny Master would be himself.
Therefore, Off also followed Roy, in the name of the Supreme God, and the two parties signed the contract.
Of course, Off exchanged the "Butterfly Dance Chain" for the Supreme God's Mirror, the twelve Life Spirit Beads, and the Jade of Sighs.
As Off mentioned these three items, he clearly saw Star Sovereign Roy nod slightly, indicating that this guy knew what was included in the Supreme God's mission package.
Under the witness of a group of Lord Gods, Star Sovereign Roy and Destiny Master Off established the contract for their battle in ten trillion years.
Then, everyone happily left the spatial turbulence above the Plane War battlefield and returned to their respective planes.
Especially Lightning Sovereign Hulley, who looked like he was about to breakdance on the spot.
Who knew how he had endured the past few hundred billion years.
Now it was great. Star Sovereign had become the fifth Rule Sovereign. In principle, he was not allowed to attack Law Sovereigns like them, which instantly boosted his sense of security.
...
"Hahahaha, from today onwards, our Four Divine Beast lineage will finally have its day!"
In the Lord God Palace on Star Island, Roy's faction of Lord Gods gathered in the palace.
This could be considered the first offline gathering for the Star Sovereign faction's members.
Nimo Lord God patted Roy's shoulder and sighed, "Today is the happiest day for me after so many years. Fifth Brother, do you know why?"
"Third Brother, you've had too much to drink."
"No, no, no, Fifth Brother, your Third Brother isn't drunk."
"With just this little bit of wine, any god would get drunk, let alone me, a Lord God."
Nimo shook his head, "We four brothers were among the earliest batch of Lord Gods in this world."
"Back then, many Lord Gods possessed divine clones of earth, wind, water, and fire elements. They wanted to hunt us and seize our Lord Godheads, so the four of us brothers had to stick together for warmth."
"Later, we repelled several batches of Lord Gods who came to hunt us, and finally, by merging our innate divine abilities, we killed two Mid-level Lord Gods..."
"It's just a pity that the Four Rule Sovereigns emerged then. All the Lord Godheads of the Lord Gods who had fallen in the God Plane and the Supreme Plane were thrown into the spatial turbulence by the Rule Sovereigns, who ordered us not to fight within the God Plane."
"After more than thirty Lord Gods died, the Four Rule Sovereigns gathered the remaining Lord Gods and established the Lord God Pact."
"Although we four brothers had the record of killing Mid-level Lord Gods and were feared by them, we were also looked down upon by others, who secretly said we just relied on numbers to bully the few..."
"Hmph, if Big Brother hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted us brothers to go and ambush those Mid-level Lord Gods!"
"Now it's great. We brothers have achieved Paragon. Among Mid-level Lord Gods, there aren't many who can be our match. Even Law Sovereigns, we four brothers have killed two, which has vindicated ourselves."
"Now, Fifth Brother, you've become a Rule Sovereign..."
Listening to Nimo Lord God's drunken ramblings, the other three brothers and Purple Jasmine High God fell silent.
They had come through that most chaotic era, so they deeply admired the Rule Sovereigns who had established the Lord God Pact to restrain the Lord Gods.
That was why Nimo Lord God was so unrestrained upon Roy becoming a Rule Sovereign.
Roy and Theresia had not experienced that chaotic era, but they could understand them.
"Alright, Third Brother, it's all in the past now."
"In the future, our Four Divine Beast Family, and our lineage, will only get better and better!"
"Mhm, Fifth Brother, Third Brother believes in you!"
"Don't worry, I may not be able to help you much with other things, but I'll make sure you have plenty of vital blood!"
After a round of toasting and drinking, the few Lord Gods left in a drunken state.
As for Purple Jasmine High God?
She had a child to look after, so after a few drinks, she returned to the Purple Jasmine Mountain Range.
And Roy, naturally, returned to his cultivation chamber to go into seclusion.
Within these trillions of years, he had to increase his Soul Power to forty thousand times, reaching the mid-stage of the Soul Golden Core!
