Several years later, Sadius and his companions finally reached the edge of the Blood Ridge Continent.
It happened to coincide with Linley's coming of age.
Without hesitation, Sadius helped awaken his bloodline.
Right now, Sadius was essentially a walking Dragonblood Pool. He could effortlessly help any Azure Dragon descendant awaken their bloodline.
Upon reaching adulthood, Linley instantly became a God in the Water element.
Over these past years, under Sadius' guidance, Linley displayed extraordinary talent in the Dao of the Sword.
Regardless of whether it was the Wind element or the Earth element, he had already reached the Saint-level.
As in the original story, Linley's soul took the shape of a sword—this indicated he also possessed a certain innate talent in the Laws of Destruction.
However, Sadius did not have Linley train in the Destruction Laws.
After all, Linley was his own son. Sadius hoped Linley would have a chance to transcend.
In the original novel, Hongmeng said that to transcend, one needed to cultivate the four fundamental elements—earth, water, fire, and wind. Missing even one would not do, but adding more would also be problematic.
This implied that cultivating earth, water, fire, and wind together with Destruction still left hope for transcendence.
But Sadius didn't dare to gamble. He still wanted Linley to safely focus on training in the Four Supreme Elemental Laws—earth, water, fire, and wind. These four alone would be enough to occupy him for a very long time.
During this time, Reyna felt a little disheartened.
Among the five of them, only she had yet to become a God. She was already at the final bottleneck, and it seemed she would either first achieve divinity in the Light Laws or the Life Laws.
Yet this calm, tranquil lifestyle of comprehension seemed unable to trigger a true epiphany.
Sadius also noticed this.
"Up ahead is Seaview City of the Blood Ridge Continent. Let's rest there for a while."
Seaview City was a beautiful city on the Blood Ridge Continent, near the Starry Mist Sea. It was an important port for ocean voyages.
The five paid with inkstones to enter Seaview City and began strolling around Blood Ridge Castle and Blacksand Castle.
It was, in part, to help Reyna change her surroundings, hoping it might aid her breakthrough.
But Sadius also stumbled upon an unexpected surprise.
Inside Blacksand Castle, he found a rare treasure that could assist with hatching the Bula Clan egg.
This was the very material he was missing—once he obtained it, he could help the Extreme Fiend's entrusted offspring hatch successfully.
"Father, I want to buy this divine sword," Linley said, pointing to what seemed like a fairly decent Highgod artifact.
Sadius shook his head.
"We don't need such ordinary Highgod artifacts. Your Grandpa Beirut is currently forging a Divine Spark sword for you. That will be the finest of Highgod weapons."
Beirut had been very kind to Sadius' family. For all five family members, he had planned to forge divine artifacts with Divine Sparks.
Sadius had even specifically requested that for young Linley, Beirut craft a divine sword refined using equal amounts of essence from Water, Wind, Fire, and Earth Divine Sparks.
Actually, Sadius had been pondering something.
In the original story, the gray substance within the Mirage Sword—what exactly was it?
Could it have been Hongmeng Spiritual Energy? Obviously impossible.
But it should have been something very close to Hongmeng Spiritual Energy—likely a form of refined Divine Spark essence.
So Sadius suspected… could God-Eater Rats, by devouring and refining God-level cores of earth, water, fire, and wind, cause their flesh to surpass even Sovereign artifacts?
Thinking of this, Sadius knew he had to remind Bebe.
The little fellow was now a Lowgod and had already begun devouring Lowgod cores.
If he devoured recklessly, it would indeed strengthen his body—but clearly, it wouldn't be as optimal as following Sadius' carefully thought-out method.
Sadius did not expect that this very line of thinking would, in the future, create a God-Eater Rat whose body surpassed even Sovereign artifacts.
While Sadius' divine clone toured the city with Reyna and the others, his true body was quietly secluded in a hotel.
This time, it wasn't for cultivation, but to ensure the successful hatching of the egg entrusted to him by the Extreme Fiend.
In the courtyard of the hotel, Sadius released his God Realm to isolate all outside interference.
He took out the Bula Clan egg that had been stored in his stomach space all this time.
Then, he brought out all the necessary materials.
These were all precious materials that aided in the hatching of a Bula Clan offspring.
Quickly, Sadius refined and melted the materials, then guided the energies into the egg.
Within the egg, life force gradually intensified. Slowly, a faint soul aura began to emerge.
With the nourishment of these various materials, it would only take a few days for this egg to hatch.
Normally, the Bula Clan could freely choose their own gender.
Sadius was curious—did they decide their gender after hatching?
Before deciding, what state were they in?
Evidently, Sadius didn't realize this logical gap.
As the Bula infant was nurtured, originally Sadius could still scan inside the egg and detect the unborn had no fixed gender.
But the moment it broke through its shell, it seemed to awaken its inherited memories and instantly decided on its gender.
"So, this little one decided to be a girl?"
Sadius cradled the newborn in his arms.
Not long after, Reyna and the others returned to the hotel.
Reyna curiously held the newly born little girl, her expression brimming with maternal love.
The very next moment, the Laws of the universe descended. A majestic surge of Life energy burst forth.
Even Sadius was utterly stunned—Reyna had merely embraced a newborn, and yet she suddenly broke through.
Sometimes epiphanies were just that miraculous—an accidental moment of clarity leading to enlightenment.
Reyna's path in the Life Laws did not follow the route of dissecting profound mysteries one by one. Instead, she cultivated the complete Laws directly, displaying her strength through holistic comprehension.
Thus, the entire Sadius family of five had now all become Gods.
"Then let's buy a few necessary supplies for the little one, and set off for the Redbud Continent."
The next day, they bought a few more things and left Seaview City.
Crossing the Starry Mist Sea would take over a decade, even with Sadius' top-tier metallic lifeform.
During this time, Sadius once again experienced what it felt like to be a 'nanny father.' The original five of them had now become six.
Years later, the six arrived at Miluo Island within the Starry Mist Sea—this was Sadius' second time stepping foot here.
Naturally, Mo Si sensed Sadius' presence and quickly came to seek him out.
"Sadius, long time no see. I didn't expect you to have already become an invincible existence beneath the realm of Paragon."
The recorded image of Sadius' battle at the Skyrite Mountain Range had already spread throughout the Infernal Realm.
"Where would it be as exaggerated as that? Compared to you, Mo Si, I still have many shortcomings."
As a powerful Commander, Mo Si's soul strength alone ranked among the top three in the entire Infernal Realm.
His overall strength was also very balanced, with virtually no weaknesses.
Unlike Sadius, whose only true specialty was overwhelming material attacks.
Of course, when supplemented by the power of Will, Sadius' abilities in all aspects were quite formidable.
"Mo Si, could I let my two sons participate in the dueling arena here?"
Naturally, Mo Si agreed.
Sadius mainly wanted Linley and Luoshen to gain personal insights through combat.
In the original story, Linley had fought countless battles on the Yulan Continent, which was why he could become a God within mere decades.
But now, the situation was different. Linley had indeed become a God, but only because Sadius had awakened his Azure Dragon bloodline, allowing him to achieve Divinity in the Water element.
His specialties—the Earth and Wind elements—had not yet shown any signs of Divinity.
Clearly, they still needed to experience more battles in order to progress.
Mo Si readily agreed.
