Panlong: Transcending from the Dominator of the Water System

Chapter 96 The Great Perfection of the Death Sovereign

"The Netherworld Flower's abilities are truly amazing!"

Inside the Netherworld Hotel, a black-haired youth sat opposite a beautiful woman in a green robe, sipping tea as they spoke.

"You seem quite relaxed. Our eldest sister summoned us here to protect her."

The beautiful woman in green robes spoke with a hint of helplessness, while her expression remained tense as she stared intently into the interior of Netherworld Mountain.

The black-haired youth and the green-robed beauty were none other than Hope, the ruler of water, and Vivia, the ruler of life. At this moment, there were no other living beings near the Netherworld Mountain, only the two of them together in the Netherworld Hotel.

"Actually, I think Sanatos is worrying a bit too much. At a time like this, no one should dare to make a move."

Hope held her teacup, gently shook her head, and spoke calmly.

"No, although you are older than both of us, you do not know Utrecht as well as the two of us."

The Lord of Life shook his head slightly, then a green halo flashed in his eyes as he looked toward the direction of Hell.

"Oh? You think Utrecht will make his move at this time?"

Hope raised an eyebrow slightly, speaking with a hint of surprise.

Although Hope has been a ruler for just as long as they have, the four rulers have interacted more over the years, so his understanding of Utrecht is still somewhat lacking.

“That guy Utrede only has eyes for Auf, that’s true, but that doesn’t mean he’s willing to watch someone with the same strength as him rise. Big Sister is a super divine beast just like Utrede, the first life born in the highest plane, and she has a supreme artifact for attack. If she breaks through to the Great Perfection, her strength will be no less than Utrede’s.”

The master of life sighed softly and rubbed his temples with a hint of helplessness.

Since the birth of the main gods, the hierarchy of the main gods has always been that Of was the strongest, followed by Utrecht, and later it became the four rulers of the rules.

Throughout these countless years, the Lord of Destruction, Utrecht, has always wanted to surpass Orph and become the strongest of the main gods, paying little attention to the Lord of Death and the Lord of Life.

However, if the Death Sovereign breaks through to the Great Perfection, his strength may not be inferior to his. The Life Sovereign's situation is also uncertain. In this case, Utrecht's attitude is crucial.

However, the fusion of the Netherworld Core requires the Netherworld Heart to work together in the Netherworld. The Death Lord cannot hide in the spatial turbulence, and when fusing with the new core, the Death Lord's counterattack ability will be reduced to the minimum.

Therefore, she ultimately decided to have Hope and Vivia by her side as a form of deterrence. This is also another reason why the Lord of Death was willing to give the Supreme God's token to Hope to enhance her power.

Meanwhile, in Hell, in the Chaotic Sea, in Wukun City.

"What is that Sanatos up to? Why is she making such a commotion?"

Utrecht's face was shrouded in a black robe, making it impossible to see his expression.

Celestial Realm, Floating Continent.

"Hmm? Sanatos?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Ouf's usually calm face, and he fell into deep thought for a moment.

The commotion in the underworld quickly spread throughout the divine realm, and many chief gods were speculating about what the Lord of Death was doing.

Three days later...

"Utrecht, Ouf, since you're here, please come in and have a seat."

Inside the Ghost Hotel, Hope suddenly looked up at the horizon and spoke calmly.

The Lord of Life sighed, said nothing more, and simply looked towards the door.

"Chichi~~"

After two energy fluctuations, one black and one white, condensed, the figures of Auf and Utred appeared simultaneously.

"Haha, the divine realm is getting more and more lively lately."

Auf sat down with a warm expression, completely ignoring the somewhat wary look in the eyes of the Lord of Life.

"Sanatos, what is she planning to do? Could it be that she wants to break through to the Great Perfection?" Utrede was silent for a moment, a strange light flashing in his eyes, before speaking in a deep voice.

Hope and the Lord of Life exchanged a glance, but did not answer immediately.

Utrecht didn't wait for their reply and continued speaking on his own:
"That girl with a similar aura to Thanatos, she must be a Nether Flower like her. I never thought that, Hope, you could not only nurture the Four Divine Beasts, but also another Nether Flower."

"Oh? What? You're also interested in having me help you breed a new Wukun?"

Hope chuckled and looked at Utred, asking a question.

"I have no interest in this!"

Utrecht shook his head, then sat down in silence without saying anything more.

As one of the four rulers of the rules, the Death Ruler understands the Destruction Ruler, and vice versa. Although he couldn't understand the specific situation, Utrecht could tell that the Death Ruler was most likely trying to break through to the Great Perfection.

Utrecht could guess the reason for the Lord of Life's wariness. Although he was slightly surprised that the Lord of Death had summoned Hope, he didn't say anything more.

Utrecht was momentarily lost in thought, considering whether he should intervene, but after a while, he decided to give up.

Although Sanatos' breakthrough to the Great Perfection realm wouldn't benefit him much, it could loosen the alliance between Sanatos, Vivia, and Hope to some extent.

Utrecht could sense that Hope's two ten-game winning streaks were backed by the support and tacit approval of Sanatos and the other sister. He also understood that the two sisters were in a weaker position in front of him and Ouf and wanted another helper.

At the same time, Hope was reluctant to give his four divine beasts' essence blood because of this alliance. However, if the Death Sovereign breaks through to the Great Perfection, then among the four Rule Sovereigns, the Death Sovereign will no longer be the weakest. At that time, the deal with Hope will be easier.

Hope was unaware of Utrecht's inner thoughts, but he was indeed considering making a deal with Utrecht, since his research had almost reached a bottleneck and Hope needed the principle of spacetime distortion.

For a while afterward, the four of them chatted, one sentence after another, and it's unclear how much time passed.

"It seems that Sanatos will remain in this state for a while, so I'll head back now."

Auf stood up with a smile, then looked at Utred with a questioning expression.

"I'm going back now too."

Utrecht paused for a moment, but ultimately did nothing. Instead, he stood up and turned to fly away with Ouf into the distance.

"call!"

After Auf and the other left, Vivia breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and looked relaxed before turning to look in the direction of Netherworld Mountain.

The Netherworld Mountain returned to calm, leaving only the sound of the two enormous Netherworld Flowers intertwining.

"Speaking of which, Hope, why have you been researching soul mutation all these years?"

After Utrecht left, Vivia relaxed a bit, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and tentatively asked...

"I was just a little curious."

Hope nodded slightly and spoke casually without saying much. Over the years, Hope had collected information on mutated souls more than once, so it wasn't exactly a secret.

The goal, naturally, was to find a direction for fusing the power of the main god, but there were almost no substantial results. To this end, Hope even secretly used the two main godhoods of water and fire and a soul mutant to create a fused main god in the spatial turbulence.

However, it was eventually discovered that the dual-element fusion of the main god's power was too singular and could not provide Hope with any insights. In the end, they had to give up and instead consider whether they could create a fusion main god with a three-element soul mutation to comprehend the principle of the fusion and interweaving of the three main god powers. However, they had not yet found a suitable candidate.

Ten thousand years later...

"Om~~"

The laws of heaven and earth emerged from above Mount Youming, and a pretty red-haired girl rose into the air, her new will and power merging into her Death God avatar.

At this moment, the true master of the underworld, one of the four great rulers of the rules who have dominated the divine plane for countless years, the ruler of death—the Great Perfection!
