Gresham, filled with terror, was about to tear through the void to evade the incoming sword light. However, he found that the space around him was as solid as iron. No matter how he moved, the void remained unbroken, leaving him trapped.Gresham was panicked. He realized that the void around him had been sealed. In his panic, Gresham swiftly raised the golden lance in his hand and thrust it forward, sending out a serpent-like beam of light that tore through the air. However, how could an elite-quality spiritual treasure compete with a protective divine weapon?The sword beam Gresham unleashed was directly shattered by the Loren Divine Blade. The swordwill carried a fierce intent, fiercely striking the golden lance.The elite-quality spiritual treasure could only resist the swordwill for a few breaths of time before it became unable to withstand the onslaught of the Loren Divine Blade, and cracks began to appear.Gresham was terrified by the scene. He felt enveloped in a boundless d
Severin turned around as the two moved. The Loren Divine Blade, which had flown out disappeared into the void and appeared through the void again. The terrifying power swept across the land, and the dazzling golden sword light strucked on Gresham and Drake ruthlessly.Two of them were filled with extreme terror as they saw the terrifying sword beam. They desperately circulated their mana, trying to break through the void to evade the attack. However, the surrounding void remained sealed off. No matter how hard they tried, the void remained unmoved.As the sword light approached, Gresham's eyes turned red with fear. He screamed loudly, "No!"Before he could finish his words, the sword beam pierced through his body, shattering his soul and tore his body in half. The cut was smooth and neat, and his blood sprayed into the air, eventually turning into pure spiritual energy and returning to the heavens and earth.As for Drake, he fared even worse under the attack of the Loren Divine Bla
Severin hovered in the air and watched Reggie being devoured by the Oculus Blade. He then exhaled deeply.Upon scanning everywhere with his divine sense, he made sure that there were any traces of the life of either Reggie or the others. Finally, he could loosen his grip on the Oculus Blade and no longer be on alert.Yet, it was not time to celebrate yet. His Inner World had dried up completely after the fight. The starry sky was not as bright as before. The situation was not in his favor for now.Luckily he was not badly hurt and not forgetting the loot he got from killing those people. That should be enough to compensate for his losses.With that in mind, he summoned the Oculus Blade back into his body. He extended his hand out and grasped the air to fetch the four spatial rings over. Once they were in his hand, he swiftly checked them with his divine sense.A few minutes later, he looked up excitedly. "Gosh! I didn't expect to retrieve this much back!"There were ten eighth-gr
Faizan held up his cup and took a sip before he cupped his hand and said, "On behalf of Primordial Sacred Land, I would like to thank everyone here for supporting and working together to kill Severin to avenge my best friend, Philbert. It's time we let the Grandiuno Sacred Land taste what it likes losing a prodigy!"Leyton scoffed but what he did not realize he had shown everyone just how yellow his teeth were. "Faizan, I heard Severin used only a few months to become a royal paragon from a level four paragon. It just shows how precious the True Immortal's essence is. Once he is killed, I want half of his essence!"Faizan nodded after hearing that. "Of course. We must separate the True Immortal's essence from his body before he completely absorbs it into his body. Maybe we would get the chance to try to ascend."He had no objection to that matter because this was agreed upon when they were discussing working together.Eesa also voiced his wishes. "I want the essence too. On top of
The news came as a shock like a bomb exploding in Faizan's head. The sect had spent so much resources, time, and effort to train Gresham but Faizan was now being told the pride of the sect was dead.Faizan was not alone. The other elders present in the room were shocked too. Each prodigy from their sects had one priority mission which was to kill Severin. If Gresham had died, it could very well meant those who went with him had fought with Severin too.Leyton decided to step in to console Faizan. "Hey, although this result is not what we expected, our ultimate goal is to kill Severin and that is why we have decided to work together."Leyton was more than happy to know Gresham was dead because that would mean he could get more essence. However, that happy feeling did not last for long. As soon as he finished consoling Faizan, they could hear people running toward the room.The disciples from the Darkness Sacred Land, Wicked Tribe, and Dragonoid both dashed into the room with scared
Back in the secret realm, Severin had no idea that Faizan and the other three elders had found out that Gresham and the other three prodigies had died and the news of their death had caused a stir in the Eastern Sea City.After he had consumed numerous alchemical pills to recover his spiritual energy, his broken Inner World recovered gradually. The once dimmed starry light had returned to its original glow.Severin ended his cultivation after his injuries and attainment were nearly fully recovered. He stood up and sprinted toward the palace in the land of inheritance while leaving the place with broken and damaged void's pieces and traces of the fight.Half a day had passed, and Severin had acquired a lot during the exploration. Although the secret realm was deserted and had a low level of spiritual energy, he had good luck in discovering a few eighth-grade spiritual herbs.He had also met a few royal paragons. However, none of the royal paragons dared to rob him or have the intent
Severin had no idea the Little Black Pagoda was the most important treasure among all the other treasures left by the Green Empire. An information that was known to him now."No wonder the Little Black Pagoda could tear open the void and space."Generally, one would have to be a royal paragon to tear open the space because only a royal paragon would understand the truth of martial arts, which made him capable of touching the space but also just merely.To open a tunnel in space and enter another realm, Severin believed the person would have to be a level nine complete-stage supreme paragon and have the power to control the power of heaven and earth to achieve that.Using the Starry Sky Battlespace as an example. It had been set with a restriction that only cultivators who were below the realm of paragon could enter. However, a few hundred years ago, the old wacko was able to enter the Starry Sky Battlespace and left his inheritance when he became a celestial. It was the same with t
While everyone was still in shock, a cultivator broke his silence and shocked everyone with what he was about to say."That's because the Four Great Sacred Lands have allied to achieve one goal, kill Severin."Indeed, it was a piece of news that had everyone gasping for air, widening their eyes, and looking stunned. They were no strangers to Severin as many of them had attended the Royal Paragon Ceremony, so they knew how lucky Severin was to obtain the opportunity to ascend to immortality.Then again, that should not let Severin be strong enough to kill Gresham and the others by himself. Especially killing them as if they were just some insects.Gresham and the other three prodigies were the saintman of their respective sects. And for good reason. They had proven their power and were top of their peers. It was just how shocking to see them end up being killed by Severin so easily.A few moments later, the cultivators all realized the consequences of this incident. The situation o
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
