"Did you just say you reserved VIP Room One for him? Who is he, anyway? Why would you reserve for him a room that even I can't go in?" Jeremy kicked up a small fuss when he heard what Caroline said. He considered himself to be an upper-class person second only to a prince or a commander's son. He was a big shot, at least in Oolong City.Jeremy felt that it was an affront to the rules that Severin had been invited in before the auction started!Caroline glanced indifferently at Jeremy and said icily, "Our senior director made this arrangement, Mister Jeremy. You may take it up with her if you have any objections."After finishing speaking, Caroline smiled warmly at Severin and said, "This way, please."Everyone else looked on with envy as Severin and his group were led in by Caroline.A man from a second-tier family came up to Jeremy with several of his bodyguards. "What's going on, Jeremy? This is the first time a guest was brought in before the auction started."Jeremy looked at
"Isn't it such a waste to just leave it empty? Wouldn't it be good to earn more spiritual stones?" Megan asked blankly. She felt that the room would not have been utilized to its full potential if it was left empty.Before Caroline could explain, Diane smiled and said, "This is something that their auction house can be proud of. It's a sales method that reflects the true value of VIP Room One. The value of the room would be diminished if anyone can just fork out spiritual stones to enter."Caroline glanced at Diane in surprise and nodded in agreement. "Miss Diane is right. It's exactly as she has described. We don't just let anyone in here even if they give us a million low-grade spiritual stones. Even if we occasionally let some famous people in for a fee, they would have to pay ten million low-grade spiritual stones or a hundred thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.""But that's super expensive! We'll only be here for a couple of hours! We could save a lot if we go to another ro
"Wow, Severin, we've received some really good treatment today. I've never experienced anything like this before." Megan walked to the sofa and sat down. Aside from the sofa, there was also a bed there for the comfort of guests.Moreover, VIP Room One was bigger than most, and the area was estimated to be almost a hundred square meters.Sheila smiled and said, "It almost feels like a dream. I never thought that I'd get to enjoy this sort of treatment in a city as prosperous as Oolong City! I never even dared to dream of such things!"Megan teased. "It's all thanks to your good judgment that you found a good husband. My sister's the same too. Our family was against it back then because we feared that she might not have a good life with Severin. In hindsight, that was very shallow of us because my brother-in-law was a diamond in the rough."Severin smiled and walked to the window. At the balcony were some transparent curtains that opened to reveal the auction venue below. Time ticked
At that moment, a girl in a purple dress came out from VIP Room Three and stretched her waist. With a slender figure and lush black hair, she seemed to be in her early 20s. Her curves stood out when she stretched her waist, causing Jeremy's eyes to light up as he laid eyes on her figure and gulped.He looked at the bodyguards and whispered to them, "Have you seen her before? Why haven't I met her before? Anyone who can afford to spend the money and join the auction from one of the VIP Rooms is either rich or powerful, but she doesn't look familiar to me."Several bodyguards shook their heads after looking at her.After the girl stretched her waist, she turned around and looked in Jeremy's direction, where she saw Jeremy ogling her breasts. Her face soured immediately and she straightened herself before saying, "You pervert! What are you looking at? Is this your first time seeing such a beautiful woman?"Jeremy pondered over who that woman could be and concluded that she was not som
When Megan heard that, she nodded and said, "Better to be safe than sorry, right? Anyway, we're in VIP Room One and they're in VIP Room Three. We have another fatso in between, so the chances of us offending her are very low."Sheila smiled and said, "I agree. That perverted fatso is more likely to offend her. He can't even be bothered to hide his lecherous gaze whenever he sees a woman, and it's almost like he's already drooling from his mouth."Megan covered her mouth and said with a smile, "Ugh, don't even get me started on that creep. His gaze is so off-putting, and his eyes always seem to have this glow when he sees a woman."A sudden thought then occurred to Megan and she said to Severin, "I heard from Diane that you have a secret technique that allows you to see other people's attainment. It's called Mind's Eye where you need to activate your third eye or something like that?"Megan then paused briefly and said, "Well, I'm not a profound master yet, but could you teach me th
Diane then explained wryly, "Well, there must be a very deep understanding between two people if the third eye is to be activated. Both people must know each other very deeply, and there has to be a deeper bond between a man and a woman. Only in these conditions can a connection be established and the third eye be activated.""That's right, Megan. That sort of relationship is never going to happen between you and Severin, so you don't have the necessary conditions to learn the technique in the first place," Sheila added."No… so that's it? Doesn't that mean I will never be able to learn this Mind's Eye for the rest of my life?" Megan smiled bitterly.Felicia could not help but sigh too. However, an idea soon occurred to her and she asked Severin, "There's still a way to make it work! You can teach Diane that method and have her help Megan with activating her third eye. That should be able to do it, right?"Severin did not know how to answer that because the excuse was a complete fa
"A high-rank Sky-grade combat technique? Flalong Auction House is probably the only establishment that can offer such treasures for auction," an old man exclaimed in awe. He was already a level one warrior king, but the most powerful combat technique in his arsenal was a low-rank Sky-grade technique.As far as combat techniques were concerned, Soil-grade ones were commoner than Sky-grade ones, while Sun-grade and Star-grade ones were probably not even in circulation within normal society,As soon as the High-rank Sky-grade combat technique was put on auction, it drew a flurry of comments from everyone. Some even had a look of excitement in their eyes, as if they had to get it at any cost."Are high-rank Sky-grade combat techniques that powerful?" Felicia asked curiously after seeing all the commotion about it. After all, she had almost no clue when it came to attainment.Megan acted as Felicia's commentator and explained everything to her, including combat techniques and the level
"Look, guys! There's someone in VIP Room One! I wonder who they are. I've never seen them before, and it seems to me that he's some sort of big shot.""That's a given. Someone like Jeremy is already among the top existences in Oolong City. His family, the Smallings, are one of the highest ranked of the first-tier families, but he could only get into VIP Room Two. The people in VIP Room One would definitely be a cut above him."Some were busy bidding, while others who came simply to watch the excitement chatted among themselves. As soon as Jeremy heard those remarks from VIP Room Two, his lips twitched a couple of times and his face turned exceptionally ugly."That darn county governor is stealing my limelight! It's pissing me off!" Jeremy gritted his teeth angrily and continued, "Hmph, he better hope I don't get an opportunity to make him look bad."His bodyguard reminded him, "This training technique looks good. It's a middle-rank Sky-grade technique too. Would you like to bid for
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
