The Mahātmā Jade and the King of Godmammoths were diametrically opposed.
In years past, the King of Godmammoths was tasked with suppressing hell, which meant he clashed repeatedly with the True Devil, who led the horde of devils from hell. Therefore, to resist the possession of the King of Godmammoths, it seemed logical to rely on the Mahātmā Jade.
“Will of King Heaven-Devourer. Snakes devour mammoths!”
Of course, Dugu Yunkong had more than one main strategy. He was planning to rely on both the Mahātmā Jade and the will of King Heaven-Devourer. With the snap of a finger, he ignited the Invincible Gold Pill, causing it to burn with unprecedented intensity as the primal-chaos elder-snake burrowed deep into Yang Jian.
Little did he know that Yang Qi and the Second Devil General were right inside that enormous snake.
Dugu Yunkong snorted in his heart. ‘The King of Godmammoths? I know you’ve been waiting in this seal, just looking for an opportunity to be resurrected. But there’s no way I’ll let that happen. With the power of the Mahātmā Jade and the will of King Heaven-Devourer, how could you possibly resist me? In the end, I’m going to benefit from all of this. I’ll sit on the mountaintop and watch the tigers fight, then reap the spoils when they tire out. When you two are tired and wounded, I’ll jump in and take everything.’
“This is it!” the Second Devil General said. “This is the opportunity we’ve been waiting for!”
The fighting between the wills of the King of Godmammoths, King Heaven-Devourer, the Chiliocosm Pagoda, and Yang Jian himself was heading toward a peak of intensity.
A sly smile spread out on Yang Qi’s face. “I can subjugate the wills of King Heaven-Devourer and the Mahātmā Jade. Normally speaking, it would be impossible, but with the will of the King of Godmammoths in there, it’s the perfect set of circumstances for me. It seems as if I’m foreordained to be the most powerful expert there is! Everything is just being handed to me on a silver platter!”
“I can’t believe it, Yang Qi. You’re just stumbling right into every benefit there is.”
Despite how the Second Devil General grumbled, he knew there was absolutely nothing he could do but watch Yang Qi progress and benefit.
BAM!
Two pieces of the Mahātmā Jade slammed into the will of the King of Godmammoths, and sparks flew out from the black and white aspects of the taiji symbol. However, the national destiny of the Chiliocosm Dynasty and the Invincible Dynasty were enough to crush down on the will of the King of Godmammoths.
That was when Yang Qi made his move, sending the devilishness of the Mahātmā Jade shooting out from the pieces he possessed. He was using his Mahātmā Jade to summon the other two pieces to him!
Crack!
The two pieces flared with the essence of the Mahātmā Jade, releasing the energies of sages, mahātmās, and devils.
“Come to me!” Yang Qi murmured, surging with the energy of the True Devil, calling out to the pieces of jade with practiced ease.
“Who’s trying to steal my jade piece!?” a voice thundered. It was the voice of whatever old-timer had recrafted the jade piece into its current form, and it came along with a mountainous wave of crushing energy.
Yang Qi chuckled coldly. “Normally speaking, the national destiny of the Invincible Dynasty and the Chiliocosm Dynasty would make it impossible for me to take these jade pieces. But with the will of the King of Godmammoths helping me, who can stop me!?”
Drawing on the God Legion Seal, he sent golden light flowing out to meet the incoming psychic attack. After crushing it, the black and white color vanished, replaced by two perfect pieces of jade. Then, they became two streams of psychic fluctuations that shot into his own will, combining with it.
In virtually no time at all, his psychic scale skyrocketed, going from six billion to seven. Then to eight. Nine billion!
BAM!
It only stopped after blasting into the level of ten billion!
By merely getting those two pieces of the Mahātmā Jade, he surpassed the Second Devil General’s speed in reaching a psychic scale of ten billion! If he went back to the Invincible Dynasty now, he could easily become a top patriarch, and could probably even take control of the entire organization.
Duke Nine Cauldrons, Priestess Dugu Wanqing, and any other people like that could be subjugated with mere thoughts.
However, Yang Qi still wasn’t content with what he saw as only a minor achievement. He wanted to get the Chiliocosm Pagoda and the Dragon Compendium, plus the King of Godmammoths’ sealing mark. He also wanted to subjugate Dugu Yunkong.
With the two additional pieces, Yang Qi could sense that his Mahātmā Jade was getting very near to a complete state. There were only a few more pieces out there. Suddenly, a projection of countless sages and mahātmās appeared around him, as well as the boundless True Devil. The latter was fully fused with him, as if he were the True Devil, commander of countless hells, and the ultimate representation of devils.
Within his mind, he could see an enormous ‘devil’ character, although it was somewhat unclear, and not complete.
Now that he had a psychic scale of ten billion, he could also sense the God Legion Seal changing. In fact, the golden figure that represented it no longer looked humanoid, but rather resembled a specific character: god. It was the character for god!
It represented countless transformations and all of the profundities of the legion of gods. Furthermore, it wasn’t the script of the god world; apparently, it came from some other profound preheaven universe.
God and devil combined!
The Second Devil General met Yang Qi’s eyes, and his heart trembled as he realized that Yang Qi was now far above him in terms of life force and substructure.
‘He’s going to end up like the Sovereign Lord,’ the general thought. ‘As of this point, there isn’t anybody who can possibly stop him!’
“Mammoth character, be subjugated!”
Yang Qi wasn’t done. He immediately sent out a stream of psychic power, along with the combination of the Mahātmā Jade and the God Legion Seal, creating a huge hand that reached toward the mammoth character and grabbed it!
Crack. Rattle.
The life force genes within him were changing, and the power of his various magical treasures were combining. Going forward, there would be no Cruiser of Civilization or Everlit Godlamp. They were him. He now possessed the true pure blood of the King of Godmammoths.
The talisman represented power, power that could end the heavens and crush the earth. It was the ultimate godpower.
When the will of the King of Godmammoths met Yang Qi’s will, which was backed by the God Legion Seal and the Mahātmā Jade, it melted as surely as a block of ice sent flying into the sun.
Yang Qi’s godhood rating started climbing again.
From six billion, it also rose all the way to ten billion!
The Mahātmā Jade pushed his psychic scale to ten billion, and the sealing mark from the King of Godmammoths did the same for his godhood rating.
All of these dramatic and rapid transformations were making Yang Qi a truly powerful figure.
RUMBLE!
As soon as he achieved the breakthrough, he activated his internal teleportation portal and reached out to his sage monarch magistrates in the Sage Monarch Empire, further perfecting their life force, genes, power, and magical laws.
Every single sage monarch magistrate dropped into a seated position, and thunderous rumblings echoed out as they became late Paramount Gods.
Furthermore, they started replicating!
Two million!
He now had two million sage monarch magistrates, all of them with psychic scales of one hundred million. They were now equivalent to Patriarch Deva, and all of them could be viceroys in the Invincible Dynasty.
It was a major breakthrough.
Instantly, the destiny of the Sage Monarch Empire grew more stable.
Moments before, the work of subjugating the Blood-Diamond Dragon Kingdom had been underway, but it had been proceeding tenuously, with many individuals considering rebelling or fleeing. And there had been other dragon kingdoms eyeing it like tigers eyeing prey.
But things were different now. The sage monarch magistrates grew visibly stronger, and shone with even brighter light from the Eternal Heavenly Aria.
The nation was stronger than ever, and with an army of two million powerful experts like this, who could compare? With hardly any effort, they could depose national leaders with psychic scales in the billions.
All of the members of Yang Qi’s empire grew stronger, including the dragons. At the same time, the essence of the Myriad Dragons Lair flowed toward the headquarters in the sea of blood.
