Following the breakthroughs, the sky above the island swirled with the vibrant energy of a level three supreme saint that filled the area with a kaleidoscope of colors. Inside the training room, Severin—who was fully immersed in the The Book of True Void Enlightenment—halted his training when he sensed the fluctuations in aura outside.Seeing as Samuel and others had reached level two, a mixture of surprise and delight filled him. What surprised him most was Samuel was the first to make a breakthrough. Since the girls had slightly higher attainment then him, and since he and Wuhlricht had the same attainment, then it should have been Wuhlricht who made the breakthrough first. Unexpectedly, it was the Samuel who paved the way.A quick glance across the island revealed that Wuhlricht, Diane, and others were close to their breakthroughs as well. Severin nodded in satisfaction and returned his focus to The Book of True Void Enlightenment.Meanwhile, inside Diane's room, her eyes were ti
Severin was enveloped by a swirling torrent of spiritual energy inside the room. He was oblivious to the envy brewing among the sect disciples. His divine senses extended toward those who had achieved breakthroughs and he was incredibly pleased with what he saw.'I didn't think everyone would get a breakthrough at the same time!' he thought with a hint of surprise. He had considered helping out Felipe and others after reaching paragonhood, but it seemed that they were progressing smoothly without needing his help.He withdrew his gaze and thought to himself with resolve, 'Even Felipe and others have made a breakthrough. I can't lag behind them! I need to continue reading The Book of True Void Enlightenment, condense the power of heaven and earth, and begin tempering my soul!"Driven by his decision, Severin calmed himself down and used his hands to form a continuous succession of intricate seals. Spiraling wisps of spiritual energy entered and existed his body as he inhaled and exha
Making a breakthrough to paragon was not as simply as making breakthroughs within the supreme saint. It demanded a deep understanding of the world and the ability to bridge the gap between heaven and earth.Most supreme saints would begin to gather the power of heaven and earth once they reached level nine. When such power accumulated more and more, they would use their primal spirit to comprehend the world and bridge heaven and earth. That step alone could take years, perhaps even decades for some! A seventh-grade pill only increased the chance of success, rather than guaranteeing it.Severin, however, was blessed with a head start. His inherent affinity for the power of heaven and earth, coupled with The Book of True Void Enlightenment, has given him a physique as strong as a dragon. It allowed him to handle more power than ordinary practitioners. Furthermore, the exercise worked wonders in tempering his primal spirit, thus facilitating a much faster breakthrough than his.With th
In the plaza, the eyes of countless disciples were shining with light. It was not until Severin entered the Alchemy Tower that everyone began to discuss among themselves."Is Severin going to have another go at the Alchemy Tower?""Severin is now a seventh-grade alchemist and an elder of the sect's Alchemist Hall!""Yeah! Could it be that he's trying to enter the eighth floor of the Alchemy Tower?""I heard that there's a spiritual treasure from the sect's ancestor on the eighth floor. I wonder whether it's true or not.""Haha! Doesn't he know how hard it is to enter the eighth floor? Even if Severin is now a seventh-grade alchemist, it'll still be quite difficult for him to enter the eighth floor!"Following the discussion among the disciples in the plaza, the news that Severin had once again entered the Alchemy Tower quickly spread throughout the sect like wildfire.After learning that Severin was trying to break through to the eighth floor of the Alchemy Tower, many of Sixth
The joy brought by success made Severin's understanding of alchemy deeper and deeper! Countless times of alchemy simulation caused Severin's success rate to soar.For one whole month, Severin stayed in the Alchemy Tower refining alchemical pills without stopping to sleep or eat. Although the alchemy in the Alchemy Tower was all a simulation, Severin was not without gains. Details that he had not paid attention to in the past were presented to him one by one, which improved his alchemy skill a lot.At that moment, Severin even felt that he could refine a seventh-grade medium-rank alchemical pill. After shaking his head to dispel the thoughts in his head, he focused on the cauldron in front of him. He carefully made hand seals to condense the spiritual fluid in the cauldron into alchemical pills.It was at that moment that the message he wanted to hear for so long sounded in his ears. "Congratulations. You have passed the assessment!"After that, the entire Alchemy Tower shook violen
Just when Severin was reveling in the happiness of obtaining the Heavenly Cauldron, the entire Alchemy Tower erupted with nine booming clang accompanied by apparitions because he had successfully entered the eighth floor.The sound immediately caused another wave of exclamations of shock from the other disciples in the plaza, especially when they saw Severin's ranking on the stele."Holy sh*t! Severin actually succeeded!""Did Severin really enter the eighth floor of the Alchemy Tower?!""It must be true! There were apparitions and the Alchemy Tower rang nine times, just like last time. So it must be true!""He's a monster alright! It only took him a month to enter the eighth floor this time!""I can't help like I'll never catch up to him!""We've been here for so many years, and we haven't even entered the sixth floor yet!"The disciples in the plaza all showed envious expressions when they looked at Severin's name who was far ahead on the ranking list.At the same time, the
At that moment, Daniella even doubted herself. She was also a renowned alchemy prodigy in the sect back then, so she was well aware of how breaking through the floors of the Alchemy Tower could be. With each higher floor, the difficulty also increased. Otherwise, she would not have harbored regrets throughout these years for not being able to enter the seventh level of the Alchemy Tower before the age of thirty-five.The sixth floor was already hard enough, let alone the seventh floor! Daniella simply could not imagine the trials she would have to go through to be able to break through to the eighth floor. She looked at the Alchemy Tower with envy."It seems that letting Emery go to Pearl Light Isle is indeed the right thing to do!" After sighing silently, Daniella withdrew her gaze and went back to the main hall.Sixth Mountain was not the only place shocked by the apparition of the Alchemy Tower's nine clangs — Seventh Mountain, Eight Mountain, Ninth Mountain… All of the peak mast
At the same time, the Thunderbolt Tribulation dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky above Pearl Light Isle, instantly attracting the attention of many nearby disciples."Are those dark clouds from the Thunderbolt Tribulation?! Did Severin refine some super powerful alchemical pills again?""Severin is simply a role model for our generation. Refining a seventh-grade alchemical pill is as easy as eating and drinking for him.""Looking at the huge scale of this thunderstorm, I wonder what kind of alchemical pill Severin has concocted this time?""Since Severin has successfully broken through the eighth floor before, this time he may be able to refine a seventh-grade medium-rank alchemical pill."The disciples of Sixth Mountain and Seventh Mountain were discussing quietly amongst each other near Pearl Light Isle.On the island, Severin walked out of the training room. He looked up at the dark clouds filled with thunder above his head. Silver snakes with fangs and claws kept weaving
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
