The way Yuka smiled was so alluring and attractive. Shortly, Severin and Sheila left for Nine Dragon City."Haha! This is so fun! It's been a while since I drive. Suddenly, I feel it's so relaxing and comfortable driving on the road and listening to music."After driving for a while, Sheila was getting more excited. She was the one who insisted to be the driver.As the passenger, Severin had nothing to do so he took out his cigarette and started smoking. "The view is spectacular. I had been busy training and making alchemical pills for the past few months. It's a good chance for me to relax and enjoy some time off once in a while. I find it very relaxing to look at the view now."After driving for more than four hours, they drove into a small town. It was a town near a valley."I see a restaurant there. Let's take a break and have lunch first. We can probably reach Nine Dragon Province before night falls."Sheila smiled when she saw the restaurant.Severin nodded. After that, he
Sheila looked at the menu, picked a flavor, and passed the menu back to the waitress.The waitress smiled politely and asked, "Would you like to order any alcohol or beverages?"After thinking about it, Sheila answered, "Oh, then we would like to have a bottle of red wine.""Any bottle of red wine?" The waitress looked stunned but that lasted only a few seconds. Later, she quickly put the professional smile back on her face. "We only accept spiritual stone as payment because you have ordered the fresh monster soup. A bottle of red wine is not very expensive but it also cost around one or two low-grade spiritual stones. The premium red wine is priced at ten low-grade spiritual stones."She thought it was better to inform earlier on the price in case the customer complained about the price later.Severin smiled, flipped his hand to take out a medium-grade spiritual stone, and tossed it to the waitress. "This should be enough to pay for the bill."The waitress caught the stone and s
Severin was glad to see Sheila was enjoying the soup. "All you think about is food. You're really an avid foodie!"Sheila chuckled. "What's wrong with being a foodie? I like to eat any food that I like. Most importantly, I can maintain my body weight no matter how much food I eat. Do you know how many girls wish to have that?"Severin said, "Don't worry. Just enjoy all the food that you like. I know a recipe to make an alchemical pill to reduce your body weight and you don't have to worry you become fat again if you stop eating the alchemical pill.""What? Do you really know how to make that alchemical pill? This world is full of wonder!" Sheila's eyes widened as if she discovered a whole new world.Half an hour later, Sheila stood up feeling very satisfied to stretch her back. "This is so tasty. Luckily we decided to stop here to have lunch and luckily we didn't fly there. Otherwise, we won't be able to drink this soup."Severin smiled. "Alright. Let's organize a barbeque when I'
Meanwhile, Jamil did not care Severin was there and openly examined Sheila's body with his eyes. "Your cute face and that gorgeous body are a perfect match. I can't wait to touch your face and body!"Sheila frowned when she heard that. "So I take that you guys are not here to rob us?"When she saw them flying in, she thought they were going to rob them. Yet, it seemed like she was wrong.Leroy smiled evilly. "No. We're here to rob you but not your money. We're here to rob you! Haha!"Severin chuckled. "Rob my woman? The three of you? You must be kidding me.""Oh? We are all level one warrior kings and our power is almost identical to those of older people in this town. Do you still think we're kidding?"Leroy took a step forward as he talked arrogantly. Whereas, Marcel smiled. "Guys, let's don't waste any time with him anymore. I'm sure he's just pretending that he's not scared of us. It's a good plan but we're not that stupid to fall for it.""I see. So you guys are all level o
After that, Sheila ran over to the dead bodies to collect their loot. Meanwhile, Severin waved his hand and the boulders exploded into smaller pieces.When Sheila ran back to where Severin was, she complained after looking into the spatial rings. "Damn. These guys are so poor. They only have some spiritual stones in their spatial rings. I don't even see any spiritual herbs."Severin rubbed Sheila's head dotingly. "So you're not just a foodie, but a money grubber too.""Everyone likes treasure. I was hoping to find second-grade or third-grade spiritual herbs in their spatial rings."Sheila chuckled and passed the spatial rings to Severin. "I can't access the spatial ring because I'm not a profound master yet. This is so annoying. I can look inside but I can't take things out."Severin consoled. "Don't worry. You'll get there soon."After Severin transferred the spiritual stones into his spatial ring, they got into the car and continued driving to Nine Dragon City. When the sky was
"Feel free to order anything you want. You must be tired after driving for the whole day," Severin said with a smile and did not mind the expensive price on the menu."You're right. I should reward myself and I'm hungry."Sheila pursed her lip and said, "But it's just you and me so we can't finish if we order too many. Let's just order three dishes. I don't want to waste food."Severin nodded. "Okay. But let's order a bottle of good wine."Suddenly, a man who was wearing a white shirt sitting behind them mocked, "Geez, what a hypocrite. You were just saying you don't want to avoid wasting money by ordering too many and here you go saying you want to order an expensive bottle of wine. Do you know what's the most expensive alcohol served here? A type of spiritual wine with a price tag of seven-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars! Do you still think you can order that?""That's right. I hate it the most when cheapskates and the poor act like they can afford to dine in here," another m
Severin smiled and confirmed his order again. "Alright. I'll place the order and serve it to you now."The waitress suppressed her excitement and went to get the spiritual alcohol. The four men who teased Severin and Sheila just now were dumbfounded. Although they came from rich families, they could only afford to order a maximum of two bottles each time they came here. They were shocked to see Severin order four bottles without any hesitation."I can't wait to drink it. I wonder how does it taste like."Sheila chuckled and licked her lip. "I'm born into a wealthy family but I've never drunk such expensive alcohol before."Severin smiled faintly. "This is not your normal alcohol. It's spiritual alcohol. You're going to gain a lot of benefits after drinking it because the level of your attainment is still low."Sheila knew what Severin was saying. "I don't know if I should be happy or sad after hearing that. I think I rather have high attainment and a less effective result after dr
"Wow. It's very smooth, sweet, and the smell is terrific. This is really very good!" Sheila's eyes lit up after tasting the first sip. After that, she quickly finished the alcohol in her glass.Severin took his time and tasted the alcohol. He, too, was satisfied with the alcohol. "Do you feel a small amount of spiritual energy flowing in your bottle after it reached your stomach? It's just a small amount but that's the reason why normal people could drink this alcohol too. The spiritual energy is very gentle and it spread across your body very slowly. This is very good. The owner of the restaurant is a very talented person.""That's right! We should drink more!" Sheila laughed.Severin did not agree. "You can't drink too many. One or two bottles are the best. Although you can't feel it, you can get drunk very easily. I think the alcohol content is quite high."After that, they continued to enjoy their dinner. When they were about to finish eating, more than a hundred people suddenl
At that instant, Infernatur and Damnatur felt a sudden chill, as if an impending doom loomed on the horizon.Severin then said softly to them, "I'm gonna need you as a helping hand!"Infernatur and Damnatur recoiled as a horrifying realization dawned upon them."Have you taken that leap?" Infernatur's voice trembled with uncertainty.Severin remained silent and simply waved his hand gently. The 129,600 cosmic laws surged with boundless power, reducing the huge figures of Infernatur and Damnatur to dust.Within moments, two essences of pure primordial power flowed into Severin's inner world, while the desolate chaos sea crumbled and was consumed by his voracious appetite.Severin's form eventually began to fade until it became a flicker of light that vanished completely. His consciousness had been devoured entirely.Everything before him was empty and devoid of substance.An indefinite amount of time passed before Severin's voice echoed through the emptiness, "Chaos springs from
With a deft stroke of the bronze halberd, the path hovering above Severin shattered."This is a peculiar weapon," Severin recoiled in alarm, raising the Oculus Blade to defend himself "It has the ability to dismantle the great path!"Simultaneously, he utilized his space-time path to shield against potential assaults, especially any sneak attacks.Explosions reverberated, unleashing torrents of elemental energy and spatial turbulence throughout the chaotic sea. Time passed indeterminately amidst the chaos.For centuries, the trio engaged in combat, their auras undiminished by time's passage.Meanwhile, the four Dominus Nosters in the Celestial Realm waged war against the extraterrestrial intruders, reclaiming territories with unparalleled ferocity.Under the leadership of figures like Callide, the extraterrestrials were simply no match for them.The Southern, Western, and Devil Regions were reclaimed quickly, yet everyone from the Celestial Realm remained vigilant, for war conti
Outside the Heaven Palace, the few who had been appointed Dominus Noster along with a cohort of quasi-royal celestials were faced with the grim reality at hand.Clad in resplendent hues, Callide—who was their leader and carried the title Dominus Noster Arcanum—donned celestial attire woven from stars and the galaxy. With a regal bearing, she commanded from atop a cloud, "Follow me, my brethren! We shall vanquish the extraterrestrials in the Devil Realm!""At your command, Dominus Noster Arcanum!""Yes, Dominus Noster Arcanum!"With their resounding battle cries, streams of light surged across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands, converging upon the territories occupied by the extraterrestrials—they were the Devil Region, Southern Region, and the Western Region.Amidst the vibrant rainbow, a towering figure emerged, blotting out the sky and earth. Everyone recognized that figure as Severin, and knew that the battle against the quasi-celestial regents would soon begin.Adrian, who was alrea
Armin then spoke with a calm authority, "You cannot remain in this time and space, for you are from the future. It is time you return."As he uttered these words, Severin sensed an invisible force pushing against him and urging him to depart.Standing upon the river of time, he overlooked the tumult of the quasi-celestial regent conflict looming below. He mumbled Armin's counsel, "By receiving nourishment, shattering constraints, tearing open chaos, and reaching the other side…" As Severin pondered over those revelations for an indefinite amount of time, clarity dawned upon him like the sudden rising sun. "So that's the way!"By the time he snapped to his senses, he discovered that his primal spirit had traversed countless epochs in the river of time. "Did I spend that long in the river of time?" he asked himself. Fortunately, the duration he spent in the river of time was but a fleeting moment in the real world.Severin's resolve solidified. Though his brief discourse with Armin,
Severin could sense the mental connection between himself and the weapon, almost as if it was an extension of himself. Severin then raised his gaze to the celestial expanse beyond."I'm almost on Armin's level now that I've made a breakthrough to the rank of quasi-celestial sovereign. However, facing the extraterrestrials' quasi-celestial regents isn't going to be easy meat for me," he mused aloud.Armin was once the sovereign architect of the Imperial Court and the ruler of the Celestial Realm, yet even he found himself at the mercy of the attack of Heaven's Will. Even a mighty quasi-celestial sovereign was reduced to naught but dust.Severin felt the weight of the responsibility settle upon him. Confronting the two quasi-celestial regents would require him to transcend to the realm of celestial sovereign—a realm of which he had scant knowledge of.He understood the concept of the celestial sovereign only in the context of attaining liberation through enlightenment via the 3,000 p
In the vast expanse of the chaotic sea, occasional gusts of strong wind whipped up the formidable chaotic energy. A single whirlpool could claim the life of even a true immortal.Amidst that tumult, two colossal figures lay prone within the abyss. They emanated an aura of unparalleled power, commanding even the paths to heed their authority. The turbid breath exhaled in their slumber had the capacity to tear the fabric of the chaotic void, unveiling dreamlike cosmic chiliocosms.They were the progenitors of the extraterrestrial race, the alpha and omega of the enigmatic beings. Their names were Infernatur and Damnatur. To the uninitiated, and sometimes even to their own kind, it was widely believed that Infernatur and Damnatur were distinct entities. However, they were but facets of the same being.Infernatur could be deemed the primordial offspring of chaos itself, having borne witness to the most primitive and barbaric epochs of the Bleu Celestial Realm. Being born of chaos, he po
Heaven Palace could now boast four royal celestials, along with nearly 20 quasi-royal celestials and 5,000 true immortals. Those esteemed individuals once served the Longevity Alliance, Clear Wind Sect, Tri Celestial Island, and Ingeni Paradise. While their numbers paled in comparison to the 120,000 true immortals during the ancient Imperial Court's heyday, Severin was confident that he could revive that with time. After all, the new Imperial Court had only just been re-established, and there was still more work to do.Severin then addressed the assembly, "As you continue raising your attainment, you shall have to anticipate the looming threat of conflict with the extraterrestrials. Now that you have are bestowed with titles as the custodians of heaven and earth, it is our solemn duty to reciprocate the blessings bestowed upon us.""Yes, we shall!" echoed the resolute affirmation from the gathered immortals.Having concluded his address, Severin went to speak briefly with Diane and
In the Heaven Palace, Callide sensed that the aura emanating from Severin was simultaneously as vast the sky and ocean but as indiscernible as that of a mortal. Tremors of terror gripped her, as she knew that he had far surpassed the realm of a cultivator who had attained the perfect-stage royal celestial. It was no exaggeration to say that Severin could obliterate a royal celestial with a mere thought.Balke, Libra, and Creatia shared Callide's apprehension. To them, Severin embodied the very essence of the path—intangible, silent, abstruse, incomprehensible, and undetectable.As the imperial robe adorned Severin, Balke and the others bowed in reverence. "Long live the Celestial Sovereign!" they chanted in unison.A subtle wave of fortune floated toward the heavenly heart imprint as Severin acknowledged their worship with a satisfied smile. He raised his hand and lifted them effortlessly with an unseen force.With a thunderous voice that resonated in their ears, Severin proclaimed
The true immortals, quasi-royal celestials, and even the eminent royal celestials held their breath. Everyone observed in silence as Severin wielded the heavenly heart imprint.With each strand of luck infused into the heavenly heart imprint, Severin sensed his dominion over the Bleu Celestial Realm becoming stronger. He had the feeling that he could reshape the world with only a single thought.Once the destinies of tens of thousands of races were bound with the heavenly heart imprint, the golden tourmaline quivered violently and radiated an aura that could be felt across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands. Acknowledging the momentous occasion, Severin tapped his forehead and directed a fragment of his soul to command the heavenly heart imprint. The 3,000 great paths within him erupted from his being and materialized."Today shall be the day that I, Severin, rebuild the Imperial Court in the Nine Heavens! As wielder of the great path, the world shall be inscribed in me, and I shall embody
