Zhutian Panlong: They've all become gods, and they're only just joining the chat group.

Chapter 107 Apology (Robbery)

Karina isn't the only smart person.

Richard still has people trying to test him, since he was the first person to become a god in the last one or two hundred years.

Although his trajectory before becoming a god was clearly visible, he had already comprehended multiple laws to the limit of the Saint Realm, so becoming a god was only natural.

But it just so happens that after he became a god, so many people became gods one after another, and after becoming gods, they all went into hiding.

It's hard to believe that he has nothing to do with it.

Even other god-level powerhouses within the Olissis Empire were curious and came to inquire.

Richard could only tell the first Orichalcostan that he had not only become a god of the wind element, but also a god of the water element.

He had revealed all the laws he comprehended before becoming a god, as he needed to demonstrate his strength to maintain his position among the powerful figures of the Holy Domain in the Olissis Empire.

Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye can know that at that time, he had comprehended the profound mysteries of three laws—two wind-based and one water-based—to the point that he was only one step away from becoming a god.

Therefore, after he became a god in the wind element, he was very lucky and also fully comprehended a profound law in the water element, so it is understandable that he became a god in one step.

Other god-level powerhouses could only be jealous of his good luck.

Therefore, one of those god-level powerhouses who hid their identities was Richard's water-elemental god clone.

He had originally planned to keep it as a trump card, but he couldn't withstand the pressure and revealed it to the original Orichalcostan.

This is something known only to the god-level powerhouses within the Olissis Empire.

This incident can be considered an explanation to the god-level powerhouses within the empire who are also on the same side.

Before long, those god-level powerhouses couldn't care less about Richard's situation.

Because his life god avatar and water god avatar also began to break through to the intermediate god level.

Two more waves of godhood surged forth, this time appearing at once, and these waves were very close together.

The prepared god-level experts rushed to the location from which the fluctuations originated, and the closest ones immediately scanned the area with their divine senses.

Richard also wanted to choose a place far away from the various god-level powerhouses, but the entire Tara plane was only so big.

These god-level powerhouses aren't stupid; they didn't react in time to the previous sudden events.

But nowadays, in order to uncover secrets, some bored guys are going to various remote places to keep watch.

Richard even discovered that several mid-level gods were not in their lair and were wandering around outside.

Basically, no matter where he becomes a god, people will quickly arrive.

Unfortunately, Richard's true form is protecting him this time, so let him come. His true form ate the fruit of the divine tree, and now his spiritual energy fluctuations are truly different from those of other divine avatars.

He's just afraid of revealing his true identity; he can still show some of his strength.

This will also serve as a deterrent to these god-level powerhouses, so they won't be idle all day and just keep an eye on these things.

The main body directly and unceremoniously repelled all the mental energy scans that probed this place.

He even retaliated fiercely with his mental power.

All the lower-level gods suffered considerable losses and obediently stopped. Judging from the mental attack, their opponent was at least a mid-level god. Knowing that it was not something they should be spying on, they dared not approach any further.

But they didn't leave. After all, there were mid-level gods around here; they wanted to see how it went, right?

The two closest mid-level gods possessed spiritual power no less than Richard's physical body. The two joined forces to approach, determined to investigate thoroughly.

Even with Richard's Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan amplification, he couldn't suppress the two for the time being. There were even two other people rapidly flying over.

Even Mr. Steven, the dimensional guardian, was quite curious about the newly emerged powerful figures. It would be good if some powerful individuals could be recruited into one's own power base.

If all else fails, I can recommend going to the Celestial Realm; the mission objectives still need to be met.

Okay, so you want to get closer, right?

Richard hardened his heart.

With a wave of his hand, a black longsword exuding an aura of destruction appeared in his hand.

It was a superior artifact with destructive attributes that was obtained from Remer.

It is also the most powerful artifact in Richard's possession at present.

The moment the black longsword appeared, the hearts of the approaching mid-level gods tightened.

"A superior artifact."

They themselves were mid-level gods, and they were well aware of the power of mid-level divine artifacts. The power emanating from this longsword far exceeded that of a mid-level divine artifact.

They know very well what this means.

Judging from the clash of divine senses just now, the opponent was only at the level of a mid-level god.

For a moment, they were both wary and irresistibly excited. This was a superior divine artifact; if they could seize it, their strength would increase several times over.

Perhaps this will allow them to suppress the other mid-level gods and dominate the Tara plane.

The group glanced warily at the others, now all competitors. They had to be careful not to let the others beat them to it.

Those who can become mid-level gods at the very top of the pyramid in the Tara plane naturally have confidence in their own strength.

They were confident they could snatch this powerful weapon.

"Heh." Richard sneered as he saw the four mid-level gods still approaching.

Richard was well aware of these guys' plans and didn't hold back when he attacked, even though one of them was the original Olissis.

Although they were far apart, Richard used his spatial abilities to send the attack right in front of them.

With his current mastery of spatial manipulation, even if he is hundreds of thousands of miles away, it is no different from if he is right in front of him, and his attack power will not be diminished in any way.

This was his first direct battle against a mid-level god, and four of them at once.

It's a good opportunity to see how strong I am now.

These guys are capable of cultivating to the level of a mid-level god in the material plane, so they must have some talent. They've also cultivated for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, so they can't be considered ordinary mid-level gods.

His physical body lacked a divine domain, which put him at a disadvantage in fighting these four, but at this distance, he wouldn't need to use it. He was confident he could end the battle before they got close.

Faced with Richard's all-out attack, which combined multiple laws and rules and included both material and soul attacks, the group realized that this attack pattern had long exceeded the scope of a single law in the Panlong world, becoming bizarre and unpredictable.

This is not a fusion of different laws or rules. In this world, apart from those with mutated souls, it is simply impossible to fuse different laws.

It can only be considered a combination of different laws, but this combination is a killer move that Richard spent a lot of time creating to suit himself.

Faced with this deadly move, even though several mid-level gods were not careless because of their superior divine artifacts, they all immediately activated their divine domains.

It didn't weaken the sword energy attacking them much either. The sword energy seemed to be on a different time and space level than they were, and was completely unaffected by the divine domain.

Instead, he was affected by the spacetime laws attached to the sword energy.

He could clearly see the sword energy approaching, but he could only watch helplessly as the surrounding space seemed to become incredibly heavy.

Time seemed to slow down, and movement became sluggish, making it impossible to avoid.

With a single sword strike, four people were severely injured.

The four mid-level gods were pale-faced, and one or two of their physical defense artifacts were damaged.

Physical attacks can be defended against, but soul attacks cannot.

After enduring Richard's soul attack, the group stopped and did not approach any further.

While they were similar to Richard in terms of mental strength, none of the four were adept at matters of the soul.

They were able to fight Richard head-on with their mental strength just now, but after Richard used such a bizarre soul attack, they dared not get any closer.

Material attacks can be withstood with defensive artifacts, but Richard's material attacks are also terrifying, destroying one or two mid-level material defense artifacts on each of them with a single blow.

But if they gritted their teeth and attacked together, they could hold out. Taking a gamble for that superior artifact wasn't out of the question.

Soul attacks won't work, and soul defense artifacts are very rare; they don't have any of them.

The only way to deal with soul attacks is to tough them out; if you can't withstand them, you'll be killed without a trace.

Let's forget about it; I don't dare take the risk.

This person has proven his strength, and they no longer want to provoke him.

While the superior artifact is tempting, it's highly unlikely we can defeat it, even with four people attacking together. If obtaining this superior artifact requires sacrificing our lives, then forget it.

So the group turned to leave. Since it was impossible to find out the situation or seize the superior artifact, they decided not to stay and humiliate themselves.

But Richard has already taken action, so how could he allow them to leave like this?

"What, do you all think you can just come and go as you please? What do you take me for?" Richard said through telepathy while swinging his sword again.

The faces of the people who had taken another sword strike grew increasingly grim. Some of them even had their defensive artifacts destroyed and had to take out several new ones from their spatial rings to replace them.

"What do you want?" asked Olissis, who had fiery red hair and a slightly irritable temper.

"I apologize for the offense. This is my apology." The true form of the beast king, who had transformed into a human, was slender and appeared very polite. He took out a mid-level artifact as an apology.

"I was just passing by. Please forgive me if I have offended you," said the first Pope of the Bright Empire, dressed in a white robe and looking like a kind old grandfather.

"I am a Plane Overseer, directly under the Chief God. Do you dare kill me?" Steven, relying on his status as a Plane Overseer, was very arrogant.

Excluding Richard, these four are the only remaining mid-level gods in the Tara plane.

There were originally five, but Remer was killed by Richard.

The group reacted differently to Richard's message. Two immediately backed down, while one remained wary. Steven, however, was quite arrogant.

"Don't try to scare me with your status as a dimensional overseer. Don't think I don't know that as long as I don't kill you, why would the Supreme God care about such trivial matters?" Richard replied to Steven.

Steven felt a little uneasy. This person seemed to know something about the divine planes. He didn't seem like a country bumpkin. Could he be from another divine plane?

That's impossible. I've been guarding the teleportation array all day long. How could I not know if anyone is coming?

"You've all offended me, it wouldn't be right not to offer some compensation, would it? This gentleman, do you think a mid-level artifact is useful to us?" Richard first addressed the others, then spoke privately to the Beast King.

"What does Your Excellency require?" After exchanging glances, the King of Beasts finally spoke.

They're on the same side now, brothers in arms. Let's put aside past grievances for now and get through this difficult time first.

"Unbind the spatial rings you're wearing and hand them over to me," Richard demanded outright.

"Impossible! Don't go too far!" The Pope's expression changed drastically. The other three also looked displeased.

Their spatial rings basically contained all their wealth, the accumulated riches of most of their lives, including their most prized possessions.

"That does seem a bit too much. How about this, you can each take five items. Only five items," Richard said after thinking for a moment, taking a step back.
