1549 A Glitch In The Law Matrix.
A full-powered attack with a Supreme Law is one and many. It would attack him and the other clones. He can die, and the others would defend against it. So unless he wants the other clones to die too, he better defend against it now. Nine golden orbs suddenly appeared behind him. They rotated rapidly behind his back to form a blur. His vision changed immediately. It broke through space to reach the law matrix and further beneath it. His gaze locked onto the true body of the Supreme Origin god he was fighting. The figure in the world of manifestation is just an apparition of the Supreme Origin god. It is more of a tunnel that leads beneath the law matrix, where the Supreme Origin god is. He prepared to attack this true body instead of the avatar that was playing around in the world of manifestation. But there was a pause, followed by a change in the future. The attack he was preparing for didn't come. It is because the Supreme Origin god saw that the singular future became two. Soverick dies in one of them, and Soverick survives in the other.
This and the enhancement of Soverick to the Supreme Origin god level surprised him and made him divert his attack. Suddenly, the attacks of the Leviathans seemed to have glitched and warped. They skipped across distance and bypassed defenses as they struck all the attackers. The surroundings suddenly bloomed with various fireworks. It was a massacre of immortals. All the Origin gods were penetrated by the attacks immediately and instantly. They all exploded and died in waves. Even those with world fragments died because they couldn't use them fast enough to defend themselves.
Only those who had activated their world fragments for defense earlier were unscathed. Soverick also survived. But that's only because he wasn't attacked, unlike the others. His eyes narrowed at the sight. It is because he saw exactly what happened. It wasn't only the attack of the Leviathans that was behaving weirdly. The entire world was also malfunctioning.
It was as if the rules of the world were messed up. Laws became broken. Things like distance and space became skewed. Mass and gravity became warped. The natural order of the world was broken so that the attacks of the Leviathans would achieve an unconditional and deadly hit on everyone.
The attack was sudden, and its effect was immediate. Even Origin gods that ought to be able to resist the attacks of the Leviathans with their bodies died instantly from one hit. The siege of the Leviathans came to an abrupt end because of it.
Gone were the waves of attackers. One person wiped out hundreds of thousands of people with a single move. This showed the power of a Supreme Origin god. The rest of Origin gods that survived or were not attacked gave up and retreated immediately. What was left in their place were explosions. That and Soverick. The Supreme Origin god should be happy that he had neutralized the siege, but he wasn't.
He snorted, "So he had a world fragment, and yet he was stringing me along, wasting my time."
The sight of Soverick's figure and the vision of his failure to kill Soverick that he saw filled him with unhappiness. If he had known that Soverick had a world fragment, he wouldn't have bothered to play with him at all. A world fragment might be able to substitute for a Supreme Law, but he doesn't think highly of those who have it because it is ultimately an external strength. The ability to control and use it properly cannot be compared to the innate use of a Supreme Law. A Supreme Law is part of his existence. It is agile, malleable, and can react swiftly to his wishes. It is like an extra arm that can change shape. A world fragment, on the other hand, is a tool that can change shape. However, you can only use it through an arm. The delay caused by the extra length can be fatal at critical times. But Soverick is different. He can foresee danger and use the world fragment in his hand in an appropriate manner. It makes it a waste of time for him to fight Soverick, as there will be no winner. That's why he left Soverick alone. His attack would be useless because Soverick would be able to see it coming and resolve it with his world fragment. The Supreme Origin god transmitted his displeasure and disdain over to Soverick as he asked, "What next?"
Soverick didn't answer. He calmly stepped away from the battlefield when he noticed that he had lost his helpers. The might of the Leviathans doesn't intimidate him as much as the singular individual responsible for wiping out all the enemies. If that Supreme Origin god wasn't present, he would be able to take on all the Leviathans on his own. Unfortunately, the first sage is determined to keep the child of the plane safe, so unless he is willing to up the ante and invest more into acquiring her right now, he had better give up. He can still defeat the Supreme Origin god if he brings the other clones into battle, but it is not worth it to kill or kidnap the child of the plane while exposing all his cards to the world. Especially not when he knows that this whole arrangement is a trap for him. So he left calmly. He thought to himself, "I don't want to take her anymore. So I don't need to be here to make her useless."
Since he has decided not to take her, he will simply put all his efforts into making sure no one else can use her. He plans to do that by stalking her and releasing information about her position to the public. He knows he can restrain himself from coveting her, but he also knows that there are plenty of others who can't, and many of them have Supreme power. So he is certain that with a little effort on his side, Salvini will become a hot bone of contention that everyone will want to take a bite out of.
