The three overlords believed they could defeat Aldrian if they released the seal on their cultivation and returned to their original strength.
But they all understood the main problem with that method.
The moment they did so, the First Heaven's heavenly law would activate. It would force them to ascend.
They would only have a small window of time to kill him.
If they failed within that brief moment, they might never get another chance.
It was not that they could not return to the First Heaven, but there was a real possibility that this would be their last chance to kill Aldrian.
If even then Aldrian survived the combined might of the three gods, they would have no choice but to bid farewell to the First Heaven.
If the overlords vanished, the devils of the First Heaven would lose the ones who led them. Chaos would spread, and it would only be a matter of time before they were wiped out.
If that happened, their god, Tarius, would lose his place in this universe.
