  Moreover, Meng Lei would be able to use supreme laws of nature more easily, more effortlessly, and more fluently after he enhanced his divine spirit.

  Therefore, he’d better enhance his divine spirit first.

  “Ding! The host’s divine spirit is currently comparable to a Supreme Ancient God’s (Higher Chief God) and will rival that of a Supreme Juggernaut’s after enhancement. Enhancement cost is estimated at 10 Supreme Divinity Crystals.” The system asked coldly, “Will you enhance it?”

  “Yes, enhance it!”

  Meng Lei waved dismissively.

  Boom!

  A strong surge of icy aura gushed into his sea of consciousness, pouring straight into his divine spirit flame, causing the golden flame to furiously expand in size.

  Boom, boom, boom!

  It doubled, tripled, quadrupled...

  20 times, 30 times, 40 times...

  80 times, 90 times, 100 times...

  His divine spirit flame went through a mad increase in size all the way until it became 100 times bigger before it gradually came to a stop. His current divine spirit flame hung suspended in his boundless sea of consciousness like a sun, releasing light and heat as much as it wanted and lighting up his entire sea of consciousness.

  This was a visible increase!

  Meng Lei could clearly feel the changes in his divine spirit. His thoughts were incredibly quick, his consciousness incredibly active, and his control of supreme laws of nature had become smoother!

  Then, he spread his divine cognition into the surroundings...

  1 light-year, 2 light-years, 3 light-years...

  80 light-year, 90 light-years, 100 light-years...

  His divine cognition had already spread 100 light-years into the surroundings, yet Meng Lei felt like he could easily go further. It was clear to him that he could spread it even further.

  “Never mind, I’ll stop testing it.”

  Meng Lei quickly retracted his divine cognition. Then, he continued to the next Divine Realm, the Tempest Divine Realm.

  Two days later, Meng Lei left the Tempest Divine Realm. Apart from a spike in his Wealth, as usual, he also plundered and obtained a new type of origin divine body, the wind-origin divine body.

  Next was the Oceanic Divine Realm...

  While Meng Lei was making the rounds around the Divine Realms without even a moment’s pause, the three Juggernauts and 43 Chief Gods finally returned to the supreme Celestial Realm.

  Upon sniffing the familiar air and taking in the omnipresent Celestial Realm power, be it the three Juggernauts or the 43 Chief Gods, all of them couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

  “I’m back!”

  “I’m finally back!”

  Despite having left for only two days, both the three Juggernauts and the 43 Chief Gods felt like they had had a close shave with death, and they couldn’t help but feel like they had gotten a second chance at life.

  They had personally witnessed the deaths of 90 Chief Gods!

  They had seen with their own eyes Meng Lei’s fearsomeness and savagery!

  Who wouldn’t be afraid?

  Who wouldn’t be shocked and fearful?

  Who wouldn’t have lingering fears?

  “I’ll take my leave first, everyone,” said the Destruction Dominus before he teleported and left straightaway. The Life Dominus and the Death Dominus exchanged a look before they both let out a sigh and left as well.

  They, the four Juggernauts, could be said to have thoroughly embarrassed themselves during their trip to the Earth Divine Realm this time. Not only had they not managed to punish Meng Lei, but he had even killed the Space Dominus while the three other Juggernauts fled with their tails in between their legs. Their dignity and prestige had reached rock bottom, and they had utterly disgraced themselves.

  “Dear all, I’m leaving, too.”

  “Let’s disperse.”

  “Go back and have a good rest!”

  “Everyone, let’s keep in contact at all times. If that knave comes to the supreme Celestial Realm, remember to inform all of us right away. We’ll teleport over!”

  “Understood!”

  “Of course!”

  The 43 Chief Gods also left one after another. After experiencing such a calamity, they only wished to return to their dens and have a good rest now. They were simply too tuckered out.

  Chapter 417: The Gray Skeleton, Destiny Laws of Nature

  Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

  As a nearly boundless and endless place, the supreme Celestial Realm’s size far surpassed that of high-end existential planes like the ten major Divine Realms. Its territories were nearly 10,000 times that of high-end existential planes.

  These vast territories were split among the four Juggernauts and 44 Chief Gods, with the Juggernauts occupying the smaller half of the Celestial Realm’s total territories.

  The Destruction Dominus’ turf was located at the Destruction Mountains. The Destruction Mountains stretched for endless light-years and was a mountain belt formed from millions of mountain ranges. Sited in the east of the Celestial Realm, they were known as the Celestial Realm’s ancestral mountain ranges, meaning the origin of the supreme Celestial Realm’s mountains.

  The Destruction Dominus didn’t return to his Destruction Shrine after he returned to the Destruction Mountains. Instead, he headed straight to the underground and started to weave his way about underground, diving downward the whole way.

  After diving for some time, he actually arrived at a red expanse of space. Strong, surging destruction laws of nature filled the area around the space, completely destroying any living thing that dared to come close.

  Floating in the center of the space was a purplish-red coffin. Odd and fascinating-looking laws of nature patterns were engraved on the coffin’s surface, and they gave off energy waves that made one’s heart pound in trepidation.

  The Destruction Dominus gazed at the coffin and let out a faint sigh. “I didn’t expect myself to come to you so soon... Ah well! Never mind!”

  Then, the Destruction Dominus gritted his teeth and erased the destruction laws of nature runes on the coffin’s surface.

  The purplish-red glow on the coffin’s surface dimmed at once. The coffin lid rose into the air, and then a mysterious and incredibly ancient wave of energy began to emanate from within the coffin.

  The Destruction Dominus took a deep breath as he took in the sensation of the incredibly frightening yet also unusually familiar mysterious wave of energy. A hint of anticipation flashed across his eyes.

  “Kekeke~”

  The sound of awfully sinister cackling rang out from within the coffin, followed by crisp-sounding clacks. At once, a grayish arm—no, not an arm. Rather, it was a grayish skeletal arm that reached out of the coffin.

  Innumerable tiny and intricate mysterious patterns covered the grayish skeletal arm’s surface. These patterns were just like tiny little tadpoles, making it hard for one to see them clearly unless they took a close look.

  Right on the heels of it, another skeletal arm reached out of the coffin, followed by a skull, a hollow ribcage, a skeletal upper torso...

  At the end, a grayish skeleton crawled out of the coffin. A grayish will-o’-the-wisp shone brightly in its skull.

  The gray skeleton gazed at the Destruction Dominus with its blank, empty eyes. Its dry, shriveled up skeletal mouth opened and closed as it cackled strangely.

  “Dear Disaryl, I didn’t expect you to come to me so soon. This truly surprises me. I’d thought that I would have to wait till the end of the current era!”

  “Hmph!”

  The Destruction Dominus had an awful look on his face. He said grimly, “Stop being so sarcastic. I’ve met with a bit of trouble, and I need your help.”

  “Trouble? Hehehe!”

  The gray skeleton cackled a couple of times, its grayish will-o’-the-wisp also blinking twice, and it said, “If my observations are correct, you likely have already compreh
ended destruction laws of nature. On top of that, you’ve also assimilated a Heart of The Existential Plane and now possess Juggernaut-class strength. Yet you’ve met with trouble?”

  “You may not believe this,” The Destruction Dominus went straight to the point, “But I’ve run into a freak. A freak who has fully comprehended the five supreme laws of nature and is comparable to a Semi-Supreme God. I hate to admit it, but I’m no match for him!”

  “Mm?”

  The will-o’-the-wisp in the gray skeleton’s skull started to flicker and dance agitatedly upon hearing what the Destruction Dominus said, indicating its similarly agitated emotions. It said, “He’s fully comprehended the five supreme laws of nature? Are you sure? You must understand that there wasn’t anyone that managed to fully comprehend the five supreme laws of nature even in our era back then!”

  “I crossed swords with him just now,” said the Destruction Dominus grimly.

  The puzzled gray skeleton asked, “What period are we currently in, Disaryl? How far has the current era developed?”

  “We’ve just passed two-fifths of it and have yet to reach the midpoint,” replied the Destruction Dominus unhurriedly.

  “...”

  The gray skeleton couldn’t help but gasp. “Someone has already fully comprehended the five supreme laws of nature when we haven’t even reached the current era’s midpoint yet? What kind of joke is that?!”

  “It’s true!”

  The Destruction Dominus repeated.

  “He must die!”

  The gray skeleton’s voice turned low and deep as it said, “We failed during the era before the previous, as well as during the previous era. The current era is the only one we have left. This is our only chance. Anything that may possibly threaten us or stand in our way... Must die!”

  The Destruction Dominus nodded forcefully and said, “That’s why I’ve come to you. I hope you can do something about it and thoroughly erase him!”

  “No, I can’t make any move for now.”

  The gray skeleton shook its head and rejected the Destruction Dominus’ request. It said, “We’ve yet to reach the halfway mark of the current era, so the world’s order has yet to collapse. It’s currently the point where the power of order is at its strongest. If I make a move, I’ll undoubtedly be erased!”

  “What should I do, then?”

  The Destruction Dominus frowned. “Am I supposed to just allow that kid to grow further? I have to remind you that that kid isn’t even 100 years old yet at this current point in time!”

  “He isn’t even 100 years old yet?”

  The gray skeleton was astonished yet again and couldn’t help but find the revelation incredible. It exclaimed, “Why has such a freakish existence come into existence during this era? This doesn’t make sense at all!”

  “And yet he’s appeared!”

  The Destruction Dominus sighed and said, “All lives can only survive for three reincarnation cycles at the most. We’ve already gone through two; this era is our only chance now. We cannot allow any mistakes! Hurry and think of a solution. We don’t have any time to waste!”

  “We don’t have any other choice at this point!”

  The gray skeleton let out a low roar. The grayish will-o’-the-wisp in its skull trembled lightly as if it might break free of the skull’s shackles any moment and leave the body.

  “Aahhh!”

  The gray skeleton let out a painful scream. Its grayish will-o’-the-wisp suddenly split into two, causing the gray skeleton to pant heavily and become incredibly weak in an instant. One half of the will-o’-the-wisp floated out of the skull and over to the Destruction Dominus.

  “These are the destiny laws of nature that I comprehended.”

  The gray skeleton said weakly, “It doesn’t contain any of my consciousness, thoughts, or will, and is just my comprehension of destiny laws of nature in its purest form. You can assimilate it with peace of mind without needing to worry about the power of order.”

  “Got it!”

  The Destruction Dominus could hardly conceal the white-hot fervency in his eyes. After all, these were destiny laws of nature! One must know that destiny laws of nature were a type of genesis laws of nature and something that was completely superior to supreme laws of nature!

  “You and I originate from the same source, so you shouldn’t need to take too long to assimilate my comprehension of destiny laws of nature. As long as you can fully comprehend the destiny laws of nature that exist within, this will be sufficient for you to kill that freak of a guy!”

  The gray skeleton instructed, “Remember, you must kill that kid while he has yet to comprehend genesis laws of nature. Otherwise, there’ll be endless trouble to come!”

  “I understand!”

  The Destruction Dominus nodded forcefully. Then, he assimilated the will-o’-the-wisp portion in front of him.

  Boom!

  A split second later, an endless torrent of information surged into his sea of consciousness like a breached dam, assailing the Destruction Dominus’ divine spirit.

  “Aahhh!”

  Even someone as strong as the Destruction Dominus couldn’t help but scream again and again from the terrifying information torrent’s assaults. A look of savagery came over his face as he endured the immense pain.

  “Go on and assimilate it!”

  The gray skeleton murmured to itself, “Once you’ve thoroughly assimilated my comprehension of destiny laws of nature, you shall have comprehended destiny laws of nature, and you’ll be able to make the leap to become a Supreme God. Even though you’ll only be a low-level Supreme God, the lowest grade of Supreme Gods, it’ll nonetheless be enough for you to wipe out any Juggernaut!”

  Chapter 418: The Nine Major Types of Divine Bodies, A Mysterious Tentacle

  Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

  The Earth Divine Realm...

  The Forest Divine Realm...

  The Tempest Divine Realm...

  The Oceanic Divine Realm...

  The Flaming Divine Realm...

  ...

  Like a hardworking little bee, Meng Lei hopped from one Divine Realm to another. In under half a month’s time, he had visited nine of the Divine Realms and was left with just the Thunderbolt Divine Realm in the end.

  At the same time, Meng Lei’s Wealth also reached an unprecedented 500 Supreme Divinity Crystals.

  500 Supreme Divinity Crystals!

  That was the equivalent of 5,000,000 trillion Divinity Crystals!

  This was practically inconceivable!

  Of course, Meng Lei also plundered and took a few major types of origin divine bodies along the way. Following his fire-origin divine body, ice-origin divine body, and wind-origin divine body, Meng Lei also gained a water-origin divine body, earth-origin divine body, and light-origin divine body.

  In other words, Meng Lei had assimilated a total of nine major origin divine body types and was only missing one last type now—the dark-origin divine body.

  “I really don’t understand why you’re assimilating all these useless origin divine bodies for!”

  Moro was greatly puzzled. He said, “Origin divine bodies may be powerful, but they are just things that sound precious but are of little practical value to you now. What you should be doing now is fusing supreme laws of nature together and trying your best to comprehend genesis laws of nature, and not wasting time doing these meaningless things!”

  Meng Lei gave him a smile in response. He understood what Moro was saying—indeed, origin divine bodies were certainly very powerful. Any deity that owned an origin divine body would receive priority grooming privileges from their clans because all of them would ultimately be able to attain Great Perfection-level as long as their origin divine bodies weren’t killed.

  Great Perfection deities!

  To a godly clan, their significance was something self-evident. However, the Great Perfection level was nothing to the current Meng Lei. What he should be currently pursui
ng were genesis laws of nature and becoming a... Supreme God that stood above the Juggernauts!

  Therefore, Meng Lei’s act of pursuing origin divine bodies was tantamount to neglecting the essentials to run after trifles and giving up a precious jewel to go after worthless rubble instead. This was exactly what Moro was thinking.

  “You can just take it that I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, I guess!”

  Meng Lei laughed and said, “Since I’ve already assimilated a few of the major origin divine body types, then why not gather them all? I just took them along the way anyway. It’s not like it takes much effort to do so.”

  “Well, it’s your call, I suppose.”

  Moro shook his head and didn’t continue to argue with Meng Lei over such trivialities.

  “Next stop, the Thunderbolt Divine Realm!”

  Meng Lei detected with his senses the direction in which the Thunderbolt Divine Realm was. Then, he cast the Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique and swiftly teleported over. His Great World-Breaching Transfer Technique held incredible might at his current level and could cross a great distance of hundreds of thousands of light-years just by teleporting once.

  In fact, if he were to use it at his full power, even crossing a distance of millions of light-years wouldn’t be any problem. It was no exaggeration to say that the vast universe was no different from a mountain to the current Meng Lei. He could tour the entire mountain in just a few days.

  A few hours later, Meng Lei finally arrived at the Thunderbolt Divine Realm.

  The Thunderbolt Divine Realm was the first Divine Realm that Meng Lei had come into contact with. He had first gotten to know of it through the Titan Spiritual God. It was because that guy had received grooming from the Theodore Titan Gods that Meng Lei had come to know of the Thunderbolt Divine Realm’s existence.

  In Meng Lei’s eyes at that time, just how immensely far away a target had the Thunderbolt Divine Realm been? And how strong and powerful the Theodore Titan Gods? In fact, even the Titan Spiritual God himself had been an incredibly strong and powerful entity to him back then,

  Yet a short period of a few years later, Meng Lei had taken the life of even the Theodore Titan Chief God himself. A mere Titan Spiritual God didn’t even amount to anything anymore.
