Beyond the Four Higher Planes and at the periphery of the universe an unimaginably distant place…
Sadius' true body was there creating the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm.
What exactly was Aether?
Even Sadius wasn't entirely sure. He had yet to figure out its link to the cosmos.
In his previous life, there was a theory that all things in existence were composed of four elemental states: earth, fire, water, and wind.
Earth represented the solid state.
Water represented the liquid state.
Wind represented the gaseous state.
Fire represented plasma.
All matter transitioned among these four states. Of course, that theory didn't apply to the Coiling Dragon universe.
Hongmeng had used Hongmeng energy to evolve the four elemental essences—earth, fire, water, and wind—into fundamental particles of the universe. Based on those, it had derived light and darkness, and later, thunder and lightning.
The seven elements were all forms of matter similar to particles.
Thus, Sadius' Aether Divine Power was also a kind of particle—only, its properties were different from the other elements.
Among the elemental series, the one most similar to Aether was Light.
This was because one of Aether's traits was holiness.
Of course, that was only one aspect of Aether—it had many other properties as well.
As a Supreme Overgod, Sadius didn't need to collaborate with other Overgods to construct a divine plane recognized by the laws of Heaven and Earth, unlike the seven Law Sovereigns who had to work together to forge a divine realm.
With a wave of his hand, Sadius released Aether essence.
An area of chaotic space far larger than the Netherworld was cleared out.
First, Sadius created a small island.
This would serve as his resting place—and the residence of Beirut and Bebe.
Unlike other planes, Sadius planned to create a spherical plane.
Yes, he intended to create a planet—an enormous one.
This idea stemmed from his past life on Earth. He had never been fond of the flat-structured planes of the Coiling Dragon universe.
But constructing a spherical plane wasn't easy.
This was, after all, the Coiling Dragon universe, governed by planar rules that supported flat realms.
Still, Sadius had an idea. He would use the Amethyst Space.
That's right—the divine energy nodes of the Amethyst Space were already arranged in a spherical pattern, allowing gravity to pull inward from all directions toward the center.
Sadius was now a Supreme Overgod.
Supreme Gods wielded primordial essence, not just simple divine power.
Even though he had lost his Earth Sovereign clone, he could still use the profound mysteries of the Earth Law.
In fact, Sadius could wield the profound mysteries of all elements—and at the highest level: six-fold fusion.
A six-fold fusion of the Amethyst Space combined with the immense power of a Supreme Overgod's essence meant that creating a stable spherical space was no problem at all.
With a flick of his hand, a spherical space emerged and rapidly expanded at a terrifying speed.
Soon, the spherical space enveloped the small island where Beirut and Bebe resided.
The grandfather and grandson had been watching Sadius create the plane, when—Suddenly, the entire island spun wildly, and gravity shifted violently.
Beirut immediately grabbed Bebe and flew into the air.
"Godfather! Are you trying to kill your adorable Godson by tossing him around like this?!" Bebe shouted helplessly.
Far in the distance, Sadius raised a finger. The chaotic spinning of the island stopped. Instead, it began orbiting slowly and steadily within the spherical space.
Only then did Beirut and Bebe return to the island.
With the space now formed, Sadius began creating land and oceans.
Suddenly, Sadius transformed into his true form: a massive Amethyst Divine Dragon.
He withdrew all life force from his body, condensing it into a colossal rock-crystal core.
Then, Sadius flew out from the core and transformed again—this time into a towering golden giant.
Holding the crystalline core that had once been his true body, Sadius hurled it into the very center of the vast spherical space.
The core began spinning, resonating with the primordial energy nodes embedded throughout the space.
As the core rotated, Sadius continuously poured Aether essence into it.
The core grew larger:
1 kilometer
10 kilometers
100 kilometers
1,000 kilometers
10,000 kilometers
100,000 kilometers
As it expanded, the core gradually took on a spherical shape.
Eventually, its diameter matched that of the Netherworld, and it stopped growing.
Sadius' true form, the Amethyst Dragon, had only created land—the oceans had yet to be formed.
Just then, another figure stepped out from within Sadius.
It was none other than Sadius' second true body: Radius, the Azure Dragon.
Radius flew out of Sadius and immediately transformed into a colossal Azure Dragon.
"Create the seas," Sadius ordered with just two words.
Radius, the Azure Dragon, surged with endless Aether essence and flew toward the massive planet.
As the dragon approached, its body swelled in size and gradually turned Aethereal—until it finally transformed into a gigantic Water Dragon.
The Water Dragon circled the planet several times…Then, it merged directly into the planet.
Where once there was only land, vast oceans now appeared.
At last, the planet was barely suitable for habitation.
However, it still lacked life.
"The Supreme Overgod commands: Let there be light!"
Sadius made the proclamation with deliberate grandeur.
Then he pointed into the distance, and countless threads of Aether essence gathered together…A golden sphere emerged.
This was the sun of the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm—created by Sadius himself.
Unlike Earth's solar system, where planets revolve around the sun, in the Aether realm the sun revolves around the planet.
Also, this sun was not made of light or fire—it was purely of Aether.
Its luminescence was merely one of its properties.
"The Supreme Overgod commands: Let there be the cycle of day and night!"
Once again, Sadius pointed—this time, toward the small island where Beirut and Bebe resided.
Suddenly, the island underwent a dramatic transformation.
What was once a regular island turned into amethyst crystal, and the crystalline material began spreading outward.
Soon, the original island had become a massive purple celestial body.
"Amethyst! All amethyst! We're rich!" Bebe shouted excitedly, trying to bite a chunk off—only to be stopped by Beirut.
Sadius had used amethyst to create the moon of the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm.
Thus, the sun and moon now orbited the Aether Overgod Realm, bringing forth day and night.
Sadius looked at the 108 gravity nodes revolving at the outer edge of the space.
He waved his hand—
And four Sovereign corpses appeared. These were the corpses of the Four Divine Beasts.
"Though you are dead, you'll still contribute something," Sadius said casually.
He refined the four Sovereign corpses with ease, extracting the essences of the Four Divine Beasts, and infused them into the 108 gravitational nodes.
Each node began to glow in one of four colors.
The shining points scattered like stars in the night sky.
Indeed—this was the starlit firmament of the Aether Supreme Overgod Realm.
They were arranged as:
The Azure Dragon constellation of the East
The White Tiger constellation of the West
The Vermilion Bird constellation of the South
The Black Tortoise constellation of the North
A total of 108 stars.
Of course, these constellations weren't actual physical bodies—but glowing points of light.
And so, Sadius' Aether Supreme Overgod Realm was more or less complete.
Of course, it would still depend on the Hongmeng beyond the universe.
Only with Hongmeng's acknowledgment could this Supreme Overgod Realm birth life.
Even as a Supreme Overgod, Sadius could not create life at will.
