Within a blink of an eye, three days had passed. Sofia looked at Birk and felt bad leaving him. "Dad, we're leaving. Please take care of yourself."Birk nodded. "Goodbye. I know I can't keep you by my side forever. I'm really glad that you can marry Severin. He's a good man."After a pause, he continued, "All I want to see is you live happily. That's all I ask for."Severin flipped his hand, took out a porcelain bottle, and passed it to Birk. "Father-in-law, I have prepared this present for you. Please only look into it after we leave.""Haha, okay!" Birk accepted the bottle and laughed out loud.Later, Severin took out his flying sword and enlarged it. After everyone had jumped onto the sword, he controlled the sword and flew away at a high speed."Hey, did you give my dad more third-grade alchemical pills? Why are you giving him more? Haven't you given him enough previously?" Sofia asked with a smile.Despite what she said, she was really satisfied with Severin.Severin smile
"We're finally back. Take a good rest, everyone. We shall meet with the Hall Master of the Lepus Hall tomorrow."Seeing how late it was, Severin told the girls to take their rest."I told Dad and Mom to prepare dinner for us. They are waiting for us now. Let's go in and have our dinner." Diane smiled and walked toward the villa.In the living room, Maurice, Judith, and the Shanahans were waiting for them."Diane! Severin! You guys are finally back. You guys are away for a really long time," Megan saw them and welcomed them by standing up.Diane smiled. "Sofia doesn't get to go home very often so of course, we must stay there longer. If we didn't receive news about Lepus Hall, we have no plan to come back now.""Come over now. Dinner is ready. Eat it while it's still warm." William and Felicia greeted him with a smile.After Severin finished his dinner, he went back to his room to take his shower. After that, he went straight to Diane's room.The moment Diane saw Severin standin
"Good day, Supreme Leader!" the elders of the Lepus Hall greeted while kneeling down.Severin quickly requested them to stand up and said, "We're a team now so you don't have to kneel at me."Rachel smiled. "Supreme Leader is right. Don't be so uptight. The Supreme Leader is very kind."Fiona was only twenty-three years old, the youngest Hall Master. She smiled embarrassingly. "I'm not used to this situation so I'm really nervous to meet the Supreme Leader for the first time. Before moving here, we were staying in a small town."Severin consoled, "Don't worry. You will get used to it after a while. Did they tell you that we're going to Mount Ermonie soon?"Fiona nodded. "Yes. They told me but my attainment has not reached the required level yet."Severin smiled, flipped his hand, and took out two second-grade high-rank alchemical pills. "That's easy. These two alchemical pills should do the job. Come find me when you have become level nine warrior king and you have full control o
Severin smiled back and said, "You're welcome. I won't mind if you don't say thank you. It's quite exhausting needing to say thank you all the time. So don't bother in the future. I won't be angry.""Haha!" Fiona chuckled after hearing that.Luke had been patiently waiting aside, and he thought it was time for him to say something. "Supreme Leader, what about me? Did you forget me?"Severin waved his hand, and a third-grade high-rank alchemical pill went flying over, hovering in front of Luke. "You're already a level six warrior emperor so you should use this third-grade high-rank alchemical pill.""Haha. Thank... Never mind. I bet you must be tired of hearing us saying thank you." Luke was going to say thank you, but just as he was about to say it, he stopped and chuckled."Alright! Now that we have new team members joining us, it's time to celebrate like we used to. Book a restaurant for tonight and we shall celebrate this joyous moment." Severin smiled while looking at Fiona. "
Mick did not mean anything when he asked that.However, Severin thought deeply before answering the question, "To be honest, I really find it very weird. He didn't just say it once but many times. He even said even if I failed to locate every single one of you or some of you are not level nine warrior king yet, I still need to be at Mount Ermonie before the 15th of August.""I'm sure there must be a reason behind this. But I know you are going to find out what's the reason when you are there on the 15th of August," Diane said after thinking about it.Severin could not be bothered to think more about it. He shrugged his shoulder and said, "Rachel, please book the restaurant for us to welcome Lepus Hall. Now we only have Simia Hall left unfound. I hope the Hall Master has reached the requirement attainment when we found him and not just a profound master."Larry smiled bitterly after hearing that. "Luckily I'm the first one you found. Or I'm never going to reach the requirement even
Surprisingly, Rachel did not know anyone else who dared to talk to her in that way in South Link City. She pulled her face long and said, "Do you know who you are talking to? Have you any idea that you have put yourself in great danger by saying those things to me?""Oh, really? I'm Thommy from a first-tier upper-class family of Kensett. Tell me, should I be afraid of you?" Thommy sneered.In fact, he was a bully in Kensett where he could do anything and have anything he wanted without any repercussions. No one had ever threatened him like Rachel did. Therefore, he was not afraid of Rachel."I'm Rachel and I'm never scared of anyone. I don't care if you are from a first-tier upper-class family or even the mayor. I will beat you up if you anger me!" Rachel sneered.It did not matter if this guy refused to give the room to her. At the most, she could book the other rooms. However, she could not tolerate being bullied or flaunted by this thug."What did you say your name is? Rachel?
"My sincere apologies, Miss Rachel, please take the private room as a token of my apology for my mistake," Thommy said with a shaking voice as he hurried to greet Rachel respectfully while keeping a distance between them as if an invisible barrier was keeping him three meters away from Rachel."Act... Actually I will be moving to another hotel." Thommy stammered and left with his sidekicks immediately."Mister Thommy, I will arrange for your deposit to be refunded to you," shouted Arroy across the hall as Thommy scrambled to leave."Oh my, what could you have possibly said to him that scared him to death?" Rachel was having a good laugh as she saw Thommy escaping like a frightened rabbit. Was she some sort of monster?"Well, not much actually. I've only made known to him that Miss Rachel is the hall master of the Serpent Hall and what do you know, that was enough to have him chickened out immediately." Arroy smiled, secretly hoping that he would earn some brownie points with Rachel
Sheila felt as if her entire body was charged with current, and she closed her eyes.In the morning, Severin called for his six bodyguards. "All of you have attained level one warrior emperor and stabilized your ranking. However, I will still give each of you a third-grade low-rank alchemical pill, so that you can improve your rank further," Severin said with a wave of his hand and handed the pills to the ladies.Lillie immediately grinned with delight and said, "Thank you, I knew that by becoming your bodyguard, I made the best choice in life!"Wendy followed, "I couldn't agree more! We are perhaps the luckiest bodyguards in the whole world. I doubt other bodyguards do not even come close to receiving the treatment that we have!"Kiera kept with the rest and said, "I was wondering to myself, what kind of a man could it be that required Mister Horace, a war god, to ascertain bodyguards for himself. Now I know for sure how extraordinary our Master is.""Isn't that true? I never d
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
