Coiling Dragon: An Unconventional Transcendence. Chapter 222 222 — Great Chaotic Battle

The Violet Thorn Sovereign's true form was a Violet Crystal Divine Beast.

Although her physical strength had not yet reached the level of a Sovereign artifact, it was still extraordinarily powerful.

At close range, she did not believe herself inferior to any Interdiate Sovereign.

BOOM!

Terrifying fluctuations of Laws rippled through the spatial turbulence.

Sovereign Shenluo was forced back by the Violet Thorn Sovereign.

Although Shenluo, like Violet Thorn, was an Interdiate Rule Sovereign, his physical body was still noticeably inferior to hers.

Still, that difference alone was not enough for Violet Thorn to defeat him.

And just as Shenluo lured Violet Thorn away from the Infernal Realm, two additional streaks of white light shot out from the Celestial Realm, heading straight toward the Infernal Realm.

BOOM!

The targets of these two Lesser Sovereigns were extrely clear.

They aid directly for Violet Thorn Sovereign's husband.

Clearly, this was a preditated siege targeted at the Violet Thorn couple.

Seeing this, so Sovereigns who possessed Destruction divine clones also began to stir.

Imdiately, a streak of rainbow light flew out from the Fire Divine Plane, launching itself at Violet Thorn Sovereign.

From the Light Divine Plane, another Lesser Sovereign joined the team attacking Violet Thorn's husband.

This was likely the greatest number of Sovereigns to participate in a battle in the last ten thousand years.

Two Interdiate Rule Sovereigns besieged Violet Thorn Sovereign.

Two Rule Lesser Sovereigns and one Law Lesser Sovereign besieged her husband.

The battle of seven Sovereigns stirred the spatial turbulence into violent chaos.

Fortunately, they were not fighting inside a Divine Plane or one of the Four Higher Planes.

Otherwise, a clash on this scale might very well have shattered entire continents.

"Tch. A bunch of trash."

Within the Infernal Realm, when the Four Divine Beast Sovereigns saw the Violet Thorn couple being besieged, Azure Dragon Sovereign Redding imdiately spat to the side.

For the four brothers, an open and honorable duel was one thing.

Victory and defeat, life and death—they could respect that.

But a battle between equals that relied on superior numbers?

That was utterly disgraceful.

It had to be said that the Violet Thorn couple was extrely powerful.

In one-on-one battles against Sovereigns of the sa level, they could firmly suppress their opponents.

But fighting one against two?

Even they had not reached that level.

Especially Violet Thorn's husband.

Facing one against three, he had already fallen into a disadvantage.

Seeing this, Redding suddenly spoke.

"Brothers, what do you think? Should we help the Violet Thorn couple?"

"Hm?"

The other three were sowhat puzzled.

"Big Brother, if you have an idea, just say it directly."

"According to the ranks established by the Death Sovereign, the Four Divine Beasts occupy the Lesser and Sovereign tiers."

Redding stood up, his gaze distant.

"Brothers, at the last Sovereign Assembly, we all saw that every Sovereign faction has Sovereigns of multiple levels serving under them."

"But our Four Divine Beast line only occupies two tiers—Lesser and Sovereign."

"We completely lack a Interdiate Sovereign."

"Among Lesser Sovereigns, if I claim second place, no one would dare claim first."

"And at the Law Sovereign tier, our fused innate divine ability is unquestionably the strongest."

"But our Four Divine Beast faction has no Interdiate Sovereign capable of holding the line."

"In that case, if another Sovereign faction sends Interdiate Sovereigns to target us, what do we do?"

"Simply let them bully us?"

Hearing Redding's words, the expressions of the other three brothers also turned solemn.

That was indeed the problem.

Even without using their fused innate divine ability, the Four Divine Beast Sovereigns stood at the absolute peak among Lesser Sovereigns.

But compared to Interdiate Sovereigns, they still fell short.

They feared neither Lesser Sovereigns nor full Sovereigns.

But if an Interdiate Sovereign specifically targeted the Four Divine Beast faction, then according to the Death Sovereign's agreent—

so long as that Interdiate Sovereign did not provoke or disrespect a Sovereign-tier existence, they themselves could not interfere.

The only way to break this deadlock was to recruit a powerful Interdiate Sovereign into their faction.

"If we step in now, win the goodwill of the Violet Thorn couple, and invite them into our Four Divine Beast faction…"

"…then our faction will truly be complete."

"Good!"

"Then Big Brother, let go too."

After hearing Redding's plan, Eres, Nemo, and Bowen all imdiately agreed.

White Tiger Sovereign Eres even volunteered to join the battle.

"No, Eres. Only my intervention is the safest option."

"Right now, all Sovereigns know that only when the Four Divine Beasts are together do we possess Sovereign-tier power."

"If a Sovereign intervenes, you three must co and rendezvous with imdiately."

"If two of us go out and a Sovereign isolates us before we can regroup, the other Lesser Sovereigns may swarm us in hopes of uncovering the secret behind our Sovereign-level power."

"I understand, Big Brother."

"Then I'll be off first."

After nodding to his three brothers, Redding imdiately stepped out of the Infernal Realm.

At the sa ti, his voice spread through the spatial turbulence.

"Petty clowns who only dare bully the few with the many!"

"I, Redding, despise this kind of thing the most!"

"Brother Violet Thorn, do not panic—I'm here to help!"

With a furious roar, Redding transford into a streak of azure light, racing through the spatial turbulence toward the battlefield of the four Lesser Sovereigns.

"The Four Divine Beasts?"

"No… it's only Redding alone."

Hearing the voice, the four battling Sovereigns were all startled.

None of them had expected the Four Divine Beast Sovereigns to interfere in this battle.

Did they intend to violate the Sovereign Agreent and attack Lesser Sovereigns?

But very quickly, they realized—

it was not the Four Divine Beasts as a whole.

It was only Azure Dragon Sovereign Redding.

According to the Death Sovereign's ranking, an individual Four Divine Beast Sovereign belonged to the very lowest tier—

Lesser Sovereign.

"Hmph!"

"I'll deal with him!"

One of the Fate Lesser Sovereigns imdiately broke away and rushed to intercept Redding.

This Fate Sovereign's divine clone was not of the Destruction Edicts.

He had joined this coalition only because he wanted an extra ally for future hunts against Sovereigns sharing his clone's affinity.

The combined Four Divine Beasts were coveted by many Sovereigns.

But at the sa ti, many Lesser Sovereigns were deeply envious of them.

Now that one had appeared alone—

if he could defeat Redding, he could at least boast that he had defeated a Sovereign-tier existence.

With one Rule Sovereign removed, Violet Thorn Sovereign's husband found his situation sowhat eased.

But unfortunately, he had already been severely injured by Shenluo's earlier assault and had since been besieged by three Lesser Sovereigns.

Were it not for the toughness of his body, he might already have fallen.

"Excellent timing!"

BOOM!

Redding's own physical body had already reached the level of a Sovereign artifact.

Because of this, unlike other Sovereigns, he did not use a Sovereign weapon.

His body itself—

was the strongest Sovereign artifact.

He threw a single punch.

Even though Rule Sovereigns were naturally stronger than Law Sovereigns by half a tier, the Fate Sovereign was still blasted flying by that punch.

From this one exchange alone, Redding's strength was obvious.

Whoosh!

Redding pressed the advantage imdiately, closing the distance and continuing his assault.

"Damn it!"

The Fate Sovereign was utterly stunned.

He had never encountered an opponent like Redding.

Violet Thorn Sovereign's husband also possessed an extrely strong body, but he could still be injured by their attacks.

Redding, however, was different.

His attacks landed on Redding's body with virtually no effect.

anwhile, every punch and kick from Redding struck with terrifying force, the shockwaves penetrating even through his Sovereign artifact armor.

The Fate Sovereign suspected that if not for the artifact protecting him, he would be beaten apart in less than ten minutes.

Even with the armor, he could not last much longer.

Once a body reached the level of a Sovereign artifact, the amplification to combat power was simply too great.

The increase in offensive power might only be around tenfold.

But the true terror lay in defense.

To destroy an opponent's Sovereign artifact, one generally needed to be at least a hundred tis stronger.

A Sovereign whose body had not reached that level would lose their artifact in the first strike from a higher-tier Sovereign.

The second strike would kill them.

But if the body itself had reached Sovereign artifact level, even if it was damaged, Sovereign power could rapidly heal it.

In other words—

a higher-tier Sovereign could kill a lower-tier Sovereign with an ordinary body in one or two moves.

But against one whose body had reached Sovereign artifact level?

That was impossible in a short battle.

The Fate Lesser Sovereign's attacks were simply ignored by Redding.

He did not even bother defending.

anwhile, every strike from Redding dealt grievous damage.

Without the protection of his Sovereign artifact, the Fate Sovereign might already have been beaten to death.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

Fear filled the Fate Sovereign's heart, but he could only endure it in silence.

At this point, he could only pray that his ally would quickly kill Violet Thorn's husband and co reinforce him.

Of course, now that he understood the terrifying strength of Redding's body, he did not expect the other two Lesser Sovereigns to actually injure Redding.

But at the very least, they might be able to stall him.

Unfortunately—

that prayer was never answered.

Although Violet Thorn Sovereign's husband was heavily wounded, he continued to engage the two Sovereigns of the sa level in a brutal, desperate struggle.
