Even though the old wacko had visited the Bleurealm and left certain knowledge behind, it would be a Herculean task for Severin to explore such an expansive territory. Severin decided to set that aside for now and turn his attention to practicing the Grandiuno Treasured Notes.Two months passed in a flash. Severin emerged from his room with eyes glowing formidably like lightning. As he stood up, a crackling sound resonated throughout his body, and his lean form was now adorned with prominent muscles.Surrounded by an abundance of spiritual energy, each breath that Severin let out resembled arrows that shot into the green brick floor in front of him. The Grandiuno Treasured Notes' influence surged through his body, causing his cells to undergo a change that enhanced even the texture of his skin to a divine quality.His skin was delicately silky, and his body emitted a fragrance reminiscent of the immortals spoken of in legends.After conducting a mental assessment of his physical st
In the center of a courtyard, Wuhlricht cocked his eyebrows as he was about to make his move and pointed out, "Not everyone is as gifted as you, Severin. The Chaotic Constitution makes it training second nature to you. Felipe and I recently broke through to level one supreme saint not long after arriving at the sacred lake, and we'd have our solid past foundations to thank if we were lucky enough to progress to level two supreme saint in one go."Felipe then said with a smile, "Don't take this the wrong way, Severin, but you need to attain a balance between work and rest. Secluding yourself all day will make you as dull as a statue."Wuhlricht and Felipe's double act left Severin a little bewildered, but he knew that they were making perfect sense. During their time in the Skyblue Sect, everyone made rapid progress because Severin provided pills for everyone. That assistance allowed everyone, even the less gifted, to make near-effortless breakthroughs. However, Severin made almost ze
News of Severin's arrival spread like wildfire in the sect during Severin's two months of seclusion. Some claimed that his victories over Thorold and Jangar were mere luck, and they cast doubts over his strength. Others speculated that Severin must have been Oskar's illegitimate son and that Severin gained entry into the sect through the backdoor.Doubts and dissatisfaction among elite disciples grew, with several level five and level six supreme saints sending challenge letters to Pearl Light Isle. They aimed to wrest the core disciple position from Severin.The challengers were no ordinary people. They ranked among the top ten elite disciples in the sect's rankings. During Wuhlricht and Felipe's occasional excursions outside of Pearl Light Isle to, the hostility shown to them by many elite disciples prompted them to return hastily. Many even demanded them to send word of their desire to challenge him, and the people around Pearl Light Isle were monitoring the situation continuously
Severin sneered when he heard that. He was familiar with Shyam's reputation and knew that he was ranked tenth among all the prodigies in the Grandiuno Sect. Shyam had reached an impressive level five supreme saint.The rankings were conceptualized to motivate disciples to give their all during training. Anyone making it onto the list commanded the highest of respect and was second only to the five core disciples.Shyam's ranking in the top ten indicated his considerable strength, and he had persistently handed challenge letters to Severin through Wuhlricht and Felipe. However, those challenges were ignored because Severin was still in seclusion, and Severin hardly expected to find himself in that predicament as soon as he stepped out of Pearl Light Isle.Shyam looked intently at Severin while unleashing the spiritual energy of a level five supreme saint. His imposing presence resulted in fluctuations of the air around him, whipping up a small sandstorm that seemed to consist of tiny
"Severin is being impulsive! Shyam is a powerful level five supreme saint!""Severin has allowed his emotions to get the better of him. He is already a core disciple, and all these doubters would no longer doubt him as long as he remains on Pearl Light Isle to train and improve himself,"The disciples near the arena immediately engaged in hushed conversations upon witnessing Severin and Shyam's arrival.Some felt that Severin was too impulsive, as Shyam was a level five supreme saint who ranked tenth in the rankings. Severin might be a core disciple, but many felt that his strength was far inferior because it had only been two months since he joined.Oskar's unconventional decision to appoint Severin as the sixth core disciple had caused quite a stir in the Grandiuno Sect, especially among those elite geniuses aspiring to hold that position. Many sought to find out more about Severin's background, and a lot of his achievements were soon made known, such as his rapid breakthrough in
Severin's fist landed on the protective shield in front of Shyam, and a dazzling burst of light erupted. The impact pushed Shyam several feet backward.Shyam, being a supreme saint, reacted swiftly. He raised his hand without much ado and summoned a long sword that had a frost-like cold gleam. He then slashed in Severin's direction, and the speed of his attack was so quick that a sharp whistling sound was produced. The sword emitted a slew of cold air, and it was so cold that it could even freeze the very void itself."You're bound to lose." Shyam proclaimed with a fierce smile. "Consider it an honor to be defeated by my Black Ice Sword!"Although his Black Ice Sword was a low-rank spiritual treasure, Shyam had enhanced its lethality by infusing it with ten thousand years' worth of black ice. It was strong enough to rival that of a mid-grade spiritual treasure. Furthermore, the sword harmonized perfectly with Shyam's skills, allowing him to unleash two hundred percent of his maximum
Severin had managed to make a breakthrough to level four supreme saint over the last two months. Although Shyam was taken aback by that, he adjusted his mindset to face the situation before him. He wiped away the blood from his lips and declared coldly, "You leave me no choice." Shyam then took out one of his pills and ate it. The pill transformed into a surge of potent spiritual power upon ingestion, and Shyam's attainment ascended rapidly too. In a matter of seconds, he not only recovered from his injuries but also elevated his attainment to level six supreme saint. The sudden advancement stirred excitement among the spectators near the arena.Observant disciples soon identified the pill that he had used."Isn't that the Savagery Pill? Shyam is trying to pull a fast one over Severin! I didn't think he'd use one of the most valuable sixth-grade medium-rank pills!"This pill heals injuries rapidly and is even capable of enhancing one's attainment by a level."Shyam then glared at
The sword energy produced a deafening whistling sound as it sliced the air into tiny fragments. The attack was fast approaching Shyam, and he could already sense the crisis he was about to face when his skin tingled from the sword energy that enveloped him. He tried to escape but found himself rooted to the ground.Though he was already a level five supreme saint, he felt a surge of panic in facing what was possibly his most difficult adversary to date. As Severin's attack approached, Shyam acted swiftly and waved his hand to produce a small bronze shield from his spatial ring.Upon producing the shield, Shyam infused it with an immense amount of spiritual power. The shield then expanded rapidly, reaching the size of a millstone. Though the aura surrounding the shield suggested that it was merely a low-grade spiritual weapon, Shyam had tempered it for many years and raised its defense capabilities to formidable levels. The shield was practically a part an extension of him.As the sw
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
