"Bang!"
Beirut transformed into a black shadow, instantly catching up to the fleeing High-level God demon and blasting the Six-star Devil apart with a single punch.
After collecting the Godhead into his spatial ring, Beirut glanced at the large pile of Godheads already in his ring and nodded in satisfaction.
"Collect a few more, and the quantity should be about right."
After nearly ten thousand years of hunting, Beirut had refined millions of Godheads using his innate divine ability, finally improving his physical strength to a level comparable to a Godhead.
However, after ten thousand years of fighting, Beirut felt that constantly fighting with just his fists was not satisfying. He decided to forge the strongest Divine Artifact for himself.
The strongest thing Beirut had ever seen was a Godhead.
And as it happened, his innate divine ability could extract the essence of a Godhead.
If he used these extracted essences to forge a Divine Artifact, wouldn't that make it the strongest Divine Artifact?
With this idea, Beirut immediately took action. On his way to the Blood Peak Continent, all God-level experts he encountered were hunted down.
Of course, with his improved strength, High-level Gods were also within his hunting range.
So far, he had never failed!
Glancing at another spatial ring on his hand, Beirut uttered a few words.
"Blood Peak Continent, the Four Divine Beast Family..."
Beirut felt that without that spatial ring, he would never have achieved what he had today.
In recent years, besides hunting God-level experts for their Godheads, Beirut had also spent considerable time inquiring about the "Star Sovereign."
However, what puzzled Beirut was that he only managed to learn that the Star Mist Sea might be related to the Star Sovereign. He couldn't find any other information about the Star Sovereign.
What worried Beirut even more was that it seemed the Sovereign in the Star Mist Sea had not appeared for countless years. It was rumored that some brave Gods had flown high into the Star Mist Sea and discovered that even the floating island where the Sovereign once resided, the Star Island, which was revered as a "Divine Palace" by many Gods, had disappeared.
This was truly frustrating.
As a Sovereign's Emissary to a Sovereign, it was unreasonable not to know who his Sovereign was or where he lived.
This sparked a bad premonition in Beirut's heart.
Although Sovereigns were more powerful than Gods, they were not immortal!
Based on how he obtained that spatial ring and the information he had gathered so far, it seemed the Star Sovereign was in grave danger.
What if his identity as the emissary of a Sovereign who had met an unfortunate end was exposed? Would it attract pursuit from rival Sovereign factions?
The mere thought of this made Beirut feel he needed to be extremely cautious.
Even the Star God Realm, which, like the Infernal Realm, was a Supreme God Realm, had a Star Legion. Until he knew whether this Sovereign Legion was under his Star Sovereign, he was not prepared to go to the Star God Realm.
Furthermore, the four Divine Beasts on the Sovereign Token in his spatial ring seemed to be the ancient ancestors of the Four Divine Beast Family.
Even if not, they were closely related to the Four Divine Beast Family.
Therefore, Beirut wanted to visit the Four Divine Beast Family first. Perhaps he could get some answers from them.
This was also the reason why the Blood Peak Continent had always been Beirut's destination.
The Four Divine Beast Family was currently located in the Azure Mansion on the Blood Peak Continent.
"I'll collect another three thousand Godheads. Once I forge a Godhead weapon, I'll immediately head to the Azure Mansion on the Blood Peak Continent."
During his ten thousand years in the Purple Thistle Continent of the Infernal Realm, Beirut had gained great confidence in his own strength.
Although he was a God, his fusion of four kinds of Profound Mysteries of Laws and his God body, which was as strong as a Godhead, made his strength no less than that of a Seven-star Demon.
If it weren't for the need to better fuse the Profound Mysteries of Laws, Beirut could break through to High-level God at any time, instantly reaching the level of an Asura Prefect.
An Asura Prefect was already considered a super expert in the Infernal Realm.
At that time, even if he encountered any danger within the Four Divine Beast Family, he would be able to escape with ease.
...
Outside Blue Maple City, Leihong and Leisjing quietly followed behind a team.
According to intelligence, the person who specialized in hunting God-level experts favored targeting these small teams.
Leihong and Leisjing were worried that the hunter might be too well-hidden for them to find, so they mixed themselves into this small team as bait.
During this period, Leihong and Leisjing had switched several small teams near Blue Maple City, but they had not encountered Beirut.
Leisjing and Leihong were not in a hurry.
Because other teams had been attacked during this time, it proved that the hunter had not left yet.
Although Leisjing's fighting spirit was surging, he also used his powerful Soul Power to conceal his and Leihong's soul aura.
However, Leisjing's wait was not in vain.
One day, Leisjing and Leihong were resting in the room of the Metal Life.
Even though they had concealed their soul aura, Leihong and Leisjing still did not venture outside the Metal Life.
After all, Leihong's physique was naturally tall and robust; he looked like no weakling at first glance.
Coupled with the inability to detect their soul aura, it was practically broadcasting to everyone that they were super experts.
What if that "Dark Shadow" saw this, wouldn't he come hunting this team?
"He's here!"
Therefore, it wasn't until Beirut began his attack that Leihong and Leisjing could sense Beirut's aura!
"So fast!"
Leisjing's eyes lit up. From sensing the attacker's aura to the metal life being destroyed, it only took an instant.
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
"Help!"
"Run!"
With the metal life destroyed, the people within were immediately flung outwards by the massive shockwave.
In an instant, everyone knew they had encountered the "Dark Shadow" who specialized in hunting God-level experts.
A black figure flickered through the air like a stream of light. With every turn, a God-level expert would fall.
Leihong and Leisjing were among those being flung, though others were truly being thrown, while they themselves made it seem that way.
Otherwise, that little shockwave wouldn't even be enough to mess up their hairstyles.
Seeing this, Leihong and Leisjing finally understood why this "Dark Shadow" hadn't been caught for so many years.
First, when this guy attacked, he relied entirely on physical strength, and the divine power fluctuations on his body were very weak. Unless you saw it with your own eyes, who would believe that the person who had hunted so many gods was just a God?
Second, this guy was incredibly strong!
And his speed was astonishing!
In just these few breaths, the people on this metal life had been almost entirely wiped out by him.
"So strong!"
Leisjing's fighting spirit could no longer be contained. Laughing heartily, he transformed into a streak of purple light and charged towards the black figure in the sky.
Sensing the wind rushing from behind him, Beirut's expression remained unchanged. He casually put the Godhead into his spatial ring, then turned and threw a punch.
"Boom!"
As he threw the punch, the moment it collided with the opponent, Beirut felt a sense of dread.
"Hmm? Not good!"
A powerful force blasted numerous long, thin spatial cracks around the two of them.
Without much thought, Beirut was directly sent flying by Leisjing's punch.
"A powerhouse!"
With just one punch, Beirut knew that the attacker was at least as strong as him!
Beirut only cared about acquiring Godheads, and engaging with an enemy of similar or even greater strength did not align with his interests.
Immediately, Beirut's transformed body turned into a black shadow and flew into the distance.
Darkness Law Profound Mystery - Shadow Clone Technique!
"Trying to escape?"
Seeing Beirut transform into a shadow, how could Leisjing not understand his intentions?
Leisjing then shouted, his entire body emitting a purple glow.
"Purple Crystal Space!"
A purple halo erupted from Leisjing's body, instantly covering tens of thousands of meters and trapping the black shadow that Beirut had become.
"Not good!"
Enveloped by this purple halo, Beirut immediately felt his body grow heavy. The immense gravity directly forced him out of his Shadow Clone Technique state.
Beirut's physical strength was comparable to a Godhead. While this gravity was powerful, it couldn't harm him. However, inevitably, his speed was severely affected.
Beirut circulated his divine power, attempting to counteract the immense gravity. But in the next instant, he felt his body lighten. The divine power he used to offset the gravity instead became a massive surge, propelling him upwards.
Purple Crystal Space was one of Leisjing's two innate divine abilities.
Within this Purple Crystal Space, Leisjing could control gravity at will, a very powerful auxiliary ability.
Linley, having learned this Purple Crystal Space technique from Leisjing, and with his God body that fused the Earthly Laws Profound Mystery with four other profound mysteries, had merely touched the threshold of becoming an Asura.
When used by Leisjing, this technique's power was naturally superior to Linley's.
Beirut, at this moment, was greatly angered by Leisjing's technique.
The gravity within the Purple Crystal Space changed unpredictably. One moment he was flying upwards, the next he was plummeting downwards, or perhaps shifting left or right. Beirut couldn't grasp the pattern at all.
This was also because Beirut's body was powerful. If an ordinary Seven-star Demon were trapped and toyed with by Leisjing's Purple Crystal Space, they would be half-crippled if they survived.
"Hahahaha!"
As the master of the Purple Crystal Space, Leisjing naturally knew that this technique, apart from making the opponent appear rather disheveled, had no significant effect.
That guy's divine body is really strong!
Not inferior to my own!
At this, Leisjing became even more excited.
Instantly, Leisjing's thoughts moved, and the gravity within the Purple Crystal Space transformed into a powerful assist, causing Leisjing's speed to surge dramatically as he charged towards Beirut.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Beirut narrowed his eyes. After realizing that the gravity within the space posed no harm to him, Beirut simply used his divine power to maintain his balance, aiming to quickly adapt to fighting in this space of chaotic gravity.
Because Beirut knew that the Purple Crystal Space itself posed no threat to him.
The one who posed a threat was the person who had unleashed this Purple Crystal Space!
As Beirut expected, it wasn't long before that little bald guy came charging over with a laugh.
"Dark Grip!"
Beirut focused, instantly erupting with his divine power to stabilize himself, then struck out with a palm.
Dense divine power transformed into a massive black palm, hurtling towards Leisjing.
This move was one that Beirut had created by fusing the element of darkness, the profound mysteries of devouring, the profound mysteries of evil, and the Shadow Clone Technique. Ordinary Six-star Devils would die upon contact.
But unfortunately, Leisjing was a Destruction High-level God, and his true form was a Purple Crystal Divine Beast. While his divine body's strength couldn't compare to Beirut's, it far surpassed the realm of Divine Artifacts.
"Boom!"
A purple halo emanated from Leisjing's body as he charged into the massive black hand unleashed by Beirut, directly shattering it.
Witnessing Leisjing's might, Beirut did not evade at all. A black halo of divine power shone on his fists as he transformed into a black shadow, charging towards the incoming Leisjing.
The previous "Dark Grip" was indeed powerful, but Beirut's greatest strength had always been his physical attacks.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Black and purple light and shadow intertwined within Leisjing's purple halo. Each collision between the two unleashed tremendous roars, and spatial rifts appeared within Leisjing's Purple Crystal Space, only to quickly seal themselves.
"Awesome!"
"Hahahaha, this is what fighting is all about!"
Leisjing laughed heartily. To better enjoy the battle, Leisjing hadn't even used the gravity of the Purple Crystal Space to interfere with Beirut, merely using it to assist himself and boost his speed.
From the current situation, Beirut was, after all, only a God who had fused four profound mysteries of laws, and the gap between him and Leisjing was significant.
However, no matter how strong Leisjing was, he couldn't harm Beirut at all, facing Beirut whose divine body's strength was comparable to a Godhead.
Thus, within the Purple Crystal Space, Beirut and Leisjing were truly evenly matched, a perfect pairing. Although Beirut was being pushed back by Leisjing, his small eyes shone brightly.
The same was true for Leisjing.
Over the years, Beirut might not have been the strongest enemy Leisjing had encountered, but he was undoubtedly the most resilient, and besides Leihong, the only one whose divine body could rival his.
Although the Purple Jasmine High God was not at Paragon, with the assistance of boundless Power of Faith, her comprehension of the Destruction Rule was no less than that of a High-level God who had fully fused five profound mysteries of laws or even preliminarily fused five profound mysteries of laws.
Under her tutelage, Leisjing had cultivated the Destruction Rule to the level of a High-level God in just a few hundred thousand years.
After that, Leisjing's cultivation slowed down.
Why?
The Destruction Rule was the rule of slaughter, the rule of annihilation, and also the rule of combat.
Every powerful cultivator of the Destruction Rule had fought their way out of countless battles and absolutely believed in the strength of their own power.
Although Leisjing had become a Destruction Rule High-level God under the Purple Jasmine High God's tutelage, he had experienced far too few battles.
After venturing out for training, there were very few powerful individuals he encountered who could ignite his desire for battle.
Beirut was one of them.
