Panlong, I've already become a main god, and the system only just activated.

He could sense that he had not only increased his strength, but also his physical defense; he seemed to have become more adept at defense. Or, to be more precise, he had acquired the defense of the Xuanwu clan.

With the blessing of his willpower, his current strength is at least ten times greater than that of an ordinary Great Perfection cultivator.

Reaching the Great Perfection realm makes further improvement in strength incredibly difficult. Even the power of techniques is roughly the same for everyone. Even if there are some differences, a difference of one or two times is the absolute maximum.

A difference of more than ten times!

It is almost impossible for this to occur in the Great Perfection.

"My Lord, what's the situation with the four of us?"

Palhaus, sensing his "dragonized" state, asked, "Could it be... one of the Four Divine Beasts?"

While the Four Divine Beasts Clan might not seem like a big deal to someone at the Great Perfection level, that's only because Great Perfection Upper Gods are incredibly powerful. Objectively speaking, even they have to admit that the Four Divine Beasts Clan possesses top-tier talent and physical abilities among their peers.

Lota was in a good mood, so she looked at the group and said a few more words, "Not bad. You absorbed the essence and blood of the Azure Dragon God."

Then, Lota looked at Moton and the other two, "As for you, you have absorbed the essence and blood of the Black Tortoise God, the White Tiger God, and the Vermilion Bird God, respectively."

Sure enough, what they had absorbed was the essence and blood of the main god.

The four had previously guessed that this was the essence of the main god, but they simply hadn't had the chance to confirm it.

Even for a Great Perfection Upper God, successfully absorbing the essence blood of a Main God is practically unimaginable. Of course, deep down, the four of them also felt a lingering fear, but they didn't show it.

Lota could guess what the four were thinking, but he was too lazy to pay attention to it. He continued to speak, as if explaining his research results to someone, "The essence blood of the four divine beast gods is different from ordinary essence blood. Although it is very dangerous, as long as you operate properly, it is not difficult to absorb it."

He didn't explain much about the special nature of the Four Divine Beasts' blood essence.

"It's just that the four of you are too weak, so there will be some danger. If it were a main god, absorbing this essence blood would be no problem at all."

Looking at the four people, Lota spoke directly.

This is not something Lota made up. In the "Blue Star Memories," Augusta, Of, and Utrecht were able to use the spacetime distortion technique only after absorbing the essence of the four divine beasts.

Based on his current research, the successful absorption by Utrecht and the other two was completely different from when he had Morton and his group absorb it. They absorbed the essence blood entirely through their own powerful strength, only acquiring some of its characteristics.

The essence and blood of the four divine beast gods were not fused into their bloodline; rather, they were merely a weapon.

However, the four members of the Morton family, including the so-called "Baruch," were the ones who truly absorbed the bloodline into their own. Although their bloodlines appeared similar to those of the Four Divine Beasts, they were actually just new bloodlines created by utilizing the bloodlines of the Four Divine Beasts.

weak

Hearing Lota's evaluation of them, Morton and the other three were speechless for a moment.

They had reached the pinnacle of godhood, and this was the first time they had been called weak. But, it didn't seem to matter much.

Lota ignored their speechlessness and continued, "However, although you four absorbed the essence and blood of the Four Divine Beast Gods and can transform into your own forms, you do not possess the innate divine abilities of the Four Divine Beast Clan. To truly acquire these innate divine abilities, you need to be baptized in the Four Divine Beast Clan's Talent Awakening Pool."

While the innate divine abilities of the Four Divine Beasts Clan are related to bloodline, they rely more heavily on the Talent Awakening Pool. Even members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan themselves, regardless of their innate talents, must awaken their abilities using the Talent Awakening Pool before they can unleash their innate divine abilities.

This was a method created by the four members of the Redding group themselves, and even Lota doesn't know how they managed to do it. Of course, it's also related to the fact that Lota hasn't researched it.

After all, all he cared about was the fusion of the essence and blood of the four divine beasts.

The reason for telling the four this was to ensure they could perfectly integrate the essence blood they absorbed. This would maximize their chances of success when attempting to absorb the other three drops of essence blood.

After absorbing the essence blood, the four realized they lacked innate supernatural abilities. However, they had previously assumed their bodies had only changed and they had become stronger. Now, hearing Lota's words, they were surprised to learn they could awaken innate supernatural abilities like the members of the Four Divine Beasts Clan!

It's important to understand that, aside from those with pure divine beast bloodlines, very few possess innate supernatural abilities; the Four Divine Beasts family is one such example. Even the offspring of many powerful divine beasts, if their bloodlines are not pure, cannot possess their own innate supernatural abilities.

This is one of the reasons why the Four Divine Beasts family is so powerful.

And now, these four people can actually obtain innate supernatural abilities?

After all, the four of them were not simply divine beasts.

In the Great Perfection realm, although some people are not purely human by blood, none of them are truly powerful divine beasts.

After all, the rules of heaven and earth are fair. Divine beasts are inherently powerful, especially those with strong bodies; there aren't many of them to begin with. Do these people really want to produce a Great Perfection being?

almost impossible.

"My Lord, we can also awaken innate divine abilities?!"

Byr couldn't help but ask again.

It wasn't that I didn't understand what Lota meant, it's just that I felt this was too unbelievable.

It's already incredible that they've increased their strength so much. If they awaken their innate supernatural abilities, their strength will increase even more!

The thought of this possibility made all four of them's hearts beat faster.

Lota smiled casually, "Why not? Although you are not members of the Four Divine Beasts family, you still have the bloodline of the Four Divine Beasts, so you can naturally use the Talent Awakening Pool."

Even without research, Lota could determine that the four could awaken based on the "Blue Star Memories".

"Of course, it will be a bit troublesome for you to awaken your talents now."

Lota continued.

When Christine destroyed the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range, he knew that Utrecht had taken the Talent Awakening Pool.

He didn't make a move, partly because he had previously studied the essence blood of the Four Divine Beasts and didn't care about it. Even now, he wasn't particularly concerned, since it was only somewhat useful to the members of the Four Divine Beasts' clans.

Another reason is that although Utrecht sent the Purgatory Army to stop Christine, he ultimately did not take the initiative to intervene, and in the end, he allowed Christine to destroy the Heavenly Sacrifice Mountain Range. Under such circumstances, he naturally wouldn't say anything more.

Hearing Lota's words, the four of them exchanged glances, then bowed to Lota, "Please give us your guidance, Master."

Awakening their innate supernatural abilities was almost a certainty for the four of them. After all, it was a means to increase their strength.

Lota smiled, unsurprised. "No rush, I'll figure something out. For now, you can stay here and adjust to the changes."

Upon hearing Lota's words, the four didn't know what to say and could only bow and reply, "Yes."

leave?

Although they wanted to, they couldn't bear to give up their innate supernatural abilities.

Although I didn't get the title of chief god this time, awakening the "Four Divine Beasts Clan" form was well worth it.

"Oh, right."

Lota suddenly spoke again, looking at the four of them, "Regarding your changes, don't reveal them until it's absolutely necessary."

He needed to keep the four of them around to study the possibility of fusing essence blood. If the four were exposed, it would probably cause some trouble. Utrecht, in particular, would probably be uneasy.

Once Utrecht develops his ultimate technique, the four of them will face less trouble even if they are exposed.

That's why we're not sending them to the Chaotic Sea right now.

The four exchanged glances, wondering why Lota would make such a request, but in the end they all nodded, "Yes."

Even without revealing their transformations, the four of them were physically stronger in their human forms than before. Their strength had naturally increased as well. They could now hold a slight advantage against other Great Perfection Upper Gods.

"Alright, you four go to the seventeenth floor."

Lota waved her hand casually.

After responding, the four people left immediately.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty."

After the four left, Ilitana's voice rang out.

Although He didn't know why Lota had been studying the essence of the Four Divine Beasts, He knew how much effort Lota had put in. Now, seeing Lota's progress, He was genuinely happy for Lota.

Lota remained calm and asked directly, "How far have you progressed in absorbing the corpses and essence of the Four Divine Beasts?"

He had previously given Ilitana a portion of the essence blood of the Four Divine Beasts, intending for her to absorb it and strengthen herself. Ilitana's absorption method differed from that of Utrecht and Morton; she used her innate divine ability, "Devour," to absorb the essence blood.

It will completely absorb the energy of the Four Divine Beasts' blood essence into its body. Of course, this absorption will not grant it any of the abilities contained within the blood essence.

"It can be absorbed, but the speed is slow. It would take at least hundreds of millions of years to absorb all the corpse and essence."

"Ilitana spoke up."

"A billion years."

Lota nodded; it hadn't been long.

The reason why Ilitana could still serve as his weapon after becoming a god was because her body absorbed countless corpses of life, making her extremely powerful.

Although his soul enhancement was limited, he could still withstand soul attacks. Lota would also prevent Ilitana from taking any soul attacks from the opponent.

Therefore, all that's needed is for Ilitana to be physically strong enough.

After absorbing the corpses of the four Divine Beasts, Iritana's body should be able to reach the limits of a main artifact. At that time, even when facing a supreme artifact, she won't be completely powerless.

The supreme artifacts are powerful, but how much of their power can a supreme god unleash?

Just like when a god uses a divine artifact, aside from increasing its power and making it harder, it's mostly just an "armor-piercing" effect.

While the limits of a main artifact cannot compare to those of a supreme artifact, as long as one is strong enough, it can temporarily withstand a supreme artifact.

Lota glanced in the direction of the passage and said calmly, "Let's hand Gaia over to Utrecht. The spacetime distortion of the Four Divine Beasts might be of some help to me."

Although Lota has determined that the direction of the fusion of the four divine beasts' blood essence is correct, he cannot find the point of fusion in the short term. Utrecht's ability to create spacetime distortions might offer some insights.

"okay."

Ilitana's voice rang out.

Gaia, and Moss and his group who were hunting her, were both under Ilitana's watchful eye. She could easily deliver Gaia to Moss and his companions.

Lota nodded, her voice wistful, "I hope Utrecht won't keep me waiting too long."

The Tomb of the Gods, the seventeenth level.

The four of them, including Morton, still felt like they were in a dream. Had they really become "the same family"?

The four of them are indeed from the same family, the new Four Divine Beasts family, to some extent.

"Boom~~~"

Suddenly, terrifying energy fluctuations emanated from the group, interrupting their thoughts.

The four exchanged glances, then looked at Christine, Clementine, and Ninisha, who were fighting in the sky.

Christine is very strong, able to hold her own against two opponents, but that's about it. After all, her opponents are two Great Perfection Upper Gods.

Merton and his three companions were also taken aback by Christine's strength.

This Christine is probably even stronger than they are after their transformations. Her body is truly terrifying.

"Make your move. Even if you don't kill Clementine and the others, leave them in the Tomb of the Gods."

Moton suddenly transmitted his voice.
