"Gah! That energy is incredibly strong!" Severin exclaimed in shock as he felt the heat from his stomach right down to his throat.He immediately used his skills to channel and absorb the energy from the peach. Streams of blazing-hot mana circulated along his veins and his Sky-High Point before finally gathering in the inner world. The sky and earth seemed to be enveloped in a large area of fire, akin to burning red clouds.Inside the training room, Severin's body had expanded like a balloon. A flash of red light then occurred, and billowing hot steam came out of his head.Everything was trembling within his inner world, and countless laws began to appear at that moment. They vied to surpass one another, resulting in a glow that overflowed with color. The liveliest among those rules was the rule of fire, from which a divine chain of order about as long as a baby's arm sprang forth. The red iron chains seemed to take on that color due to the heat, and crackling sounds were heard as a
The awe-inspiring aura of a level seven supreme paragon reverberated through space, spreading across the entire cave paradise. The breakthrough lacked the grandiose mirages of golden light piercing the heavens—instead, countless shockwaves shot through the sky."Holy moly! Did Severin just make another breakthrough?""But didn't he just make a breakthrough just a couple of days ago?""He must've eaten some sort of a celestial herb or divine pill! All the spiritual energy within this place has been completely drained by him!"Many disciples who were deep in seclusion were abruptly roused by the strong surge of aura. They were rendered speechless by what happened. Though they grumbled about Severin depleting the spiritual energy, their hearts were filled with admiration for his abilities.Deep within the sacred land, Adrian was prepared to tend to his injuries when he sensed Severin's breakthrough. He got up abruptly, and his gaze pierced through space as he fixated on Enchanted Pea
After some time, Severin opened his eyes suddenly, and warm air exited his nose like a roaring dragon several feet long.As he felt the torrential surge of mana coursing through his body, Severin clenched his fists. An audible crackle was heard from his knuckles, while his muscles bulged along his arms in a testament to his newfound power.Severin could not help but feel a surge of satisfaction after observing the transformation. His strength was technically second to none among all the supreme paragons!Having ascended to level seven supreme paragon and with trillions of cell universes now at his command, his mana had since transcended their former limitations. More importantly, his familiarity with various rules had deepened to the point where he could effortlessly disrupt the divine chain of order with a mere gesture."I'm pretty sure I'll emerge victorious if I encounter Baldwin again," Severin declared confidently.His inner world had expanded rapidly following consumption of
At the moment, there existed just over ten half-immortals within the entirety of Bleurealm—that included the Nine Sacred Lands and the Eight Ancient Families. Many of them had lingered at that stage for tens of thousands of years, having had to face insurmountable bottlenecks. That alone served as a testament to the formidable challenge of attaining true immortality.Although Severin was just a level seven supreme paragon, the aura he possessed seemed to genuinely left Adrian feeling unsettled, as if there was a sense of intimidation coming from him. That being said, Adrian's appreciation and admiration for Severin continued to grow, prompting him to share his own experiences and insights on attainment until noon.After Severin's ascension to level seven supreme paragon, the Grandiuno Sacred Land settled into peace and tranquility. Many of the major supreme paragons returned from their ventures beyond the sect's borders. Carson and Willette, who had overseen Greatflare had returned t
When Baldwin and Grenn heard of Xavier's intentions, their somber expressions brightened up in an instant. Previously, their forces had suffered successive defeats that resulted in the loss of several supreme paragons and even half-immortals. Their vitality had taken a hit too.Baldwin had initially planned to imbibe himself with blood within the Seven Star Formation upon returning to the sacred land—it was his attempt at breaking his true body free from the seal. However, he lacked the complete power of blood and energy from a half-immortal to achieve that, and had felt helpless in the face of that realization.Despite having physical prowess as a clone of the Ancestora, mounting a clandestine attack on a half-immortal was still beyond his reach. As a result, he could only rely on Grenn and Xavier. Alas, the magnitude of their recent failure made Grenn cautious about taking further action."I'm aware what happened at the Eastern Sea. Since we failed to secure the dragonoids' treasu
That was where Xavier's confidence stemmed from. After knowing what happened, Grenn exclaimed hurriedly, "Your mana is boundless, and your aura is strong. I understand now."Green was on the verge of being shocked into immobility by Xavier's aura, and it was difficult even for him to circulate the mana within him.Baldwin, who stood not far away, wore a look of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect that Xavier could show such remarkable talent in addition to a rapid growth in strength.After a few moments of pondering, Baldwin stated calmly, "In that case, we deal with Eastplain." He had already made up his mind to devise a plan—if he could consume a significant amount of energy and blood, then there was hope for his true form to be unsealed!Once he had received the consent of both parties, Xavier grinned slightly and stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He gazed into the distance, and his cloudy eyes gleamed with murderous intent."I am but one step away from achievi
Over at the Burkes' ancestral land in Eastplain, a vast spatial passage tore open and casted a shadow over the Burkes' territory. In response, many of the Burkes leaped into the air in a panic and assumed defensive stances."What a sneaky little rat you are, Xavier! Are you sure you want to start a war against the Burkes?" Jero, the Burkes' elder, ripped open the void with a furious glow in his eyes.A cold, mocking laughter was the only retort he received. "A war? Your family isn't worthy of one!" Following those words, a massive sky-sized handprint descended down and smacked Jero away forcefully.Back at Enchanted Peak, nature painted a beautiful picture with a fresh flush of leaves and a sea of white mist enveloping the area. Severin reclined on a lounge chair in the courtyard, gazing out at the sea of clouds before him.During that period, he had fully digested the celestial peach's remaining divine technique within him and ascended to become a level seven supreme paragon. Thou
Severin's face paled, and he nearly lost his voice as he mumbled, "Has a half-immortal fallen?!"Severin has witnessed such an occurrence twice already! The first was when the half-immortal Darius—elder of the dragonoids—plummeted into the Eastern Sea to his death. The world quaked then. The second was when the confrontation with Horra on Northsea's grassland, where Horra's self-explosion unleashed such cataclysmic power that the entire Bleurealm seemed to change drastically in response. With the blood rain making yet another appearance, there was little doubt that another half-immortal had met their demise.Shock was etched across Severin's face as he pondered the events unfolding beyond his immediate surroundings. Despite his stature as a seventh-level supreme paragon, he remained neither omniscient nor omnipotent. He composed himself and retreated into quiet contemplation while sipping his spiritual tea.He knew that news of the perished half-immortal's identity would eventually
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
