Lawrence's gaze fell upon Balke, whose countenance was shrouded in gloom and silence. As the lord of Heaven Palace and the paramount figure among the royal celestials, he couldn't shake off the sense of powerlessness wrought by what was happening.Lawrence's status as a royal celestial offered little solace when confronting the extraterrestrials entrenched in the Devil Realm. Memories soon flooded back to him—about two million years prior, a dark upheaval had claimed the lives of tens of thousands of true immortals in heaven. The Bleu Celestial Realm was stained with the blood of millions. At that time, he had just become a royal celestial, and the strength he had buoyed his confidence. He had gone to settle scores with those extraterrestrials, yet the tables were turned and he was besieged by them. Only Emperor Armin's intervention had spared him from perishing in that bygone cataclysm.As the realm convergence loomed nearer, those extraterrestrials from the Devil Realm grew increas
Following the edict that soared across the Nine Heavens toward the ten domain masters in the Celestial Realm, none dared refuse or disobey the summons. Their orders became the talk of the entire Celestial Realm.Meanwhile, in Midland, Severin lounged upon a rocking chair in the courtyard of Enchanted Peak while leisurely soaking in the sun's rays. Beside him, his four regally-dressed wives engaged in lively conversation, exchanging their thoughts and aspirations in attainment with bright eyes and radiant smiles. Meanwhile, Hardin and Selene had sibling bonding time.The peaceful environment was soon disrupted by a streak of light that descended from the heavens. A sigil exuding authority had been delivered unto Severin's hands. In an instant, information flooded Severin's mind and elicited a drastic change in his expression. "A summoning order from the royal celestials?"Having spent two years within the Celestial Realm, Severin had become well-acquainted with many of its facets, an
Half a day later, Severin sat in the Grand Preceptor's Throne in the sacred land's main hall while Adrian and the other true immortals gathered below. They glanced up at Severin, whose gaze swept across the Longevity Alliance before saying slowly, "The royal celestials' summoning order indicates that tension at the border sea is starting to grow. I intend to bring along several true immortals to accompany me to the border. The Longevity Alliance will be in your care now, master."Adrian nodded gravely and said, "Rest assured, Severin. As long as I am here, the Longevity Alliance will remain steadfast!"Severin had planned to enlist the aid of his wives in his journey to the border sea, along with Carson, Amethyst, and Jaxon. That would leave Adrian to safeguard the alliance, and Adrian would be entrusted with the Green Emperor's Pagoda.Although Adrian was a true immortal, his rise to immortality happened fairly recently and he had yet to refine his own immortal weapon. Thus, his st
Jaxon then reached a bottleneck that lasted many thousands of years before he could become an immortal. Were it not for Severin's pill that gave him a boost, he would probably still be wasting time trying to achieve immortality. That experience was what led Jaxon to nearly pour scorn on the Celestial Realm's prodigies, as they had used the strong aura of the Celestial Realm and the perfected rules of heaven and earth as tools to achieve immortality.Compared to sheer perseverance and hard work such as that put in by Jaxon, many of those so-called prodigies from the Celestial Realm did not have a solid attainment path.Severin smiled knowingly after listening to Jaxon's words. Confidence was key, but too much of it could be detrimental. The spatial laws activated around him were soon activated as Severin maneuvered the airship several thousands of miles. The landscapes below turned into a complete blur. Guided by the sigil that he held, Severin stood at the helm and soon came to behol
After regaining his composure, Severin swiftly grabbed the two true immortals who had spoken earlier and asked in surprise, "Gentlemen, this Hartberg Mutwalden that you speak of… Has he ever been given the nickname 'Old Wacko'?"The true immortal was initially displeased when Severin grabbed him out of nowhere, but he quickly calmed himself down upon sensing the faint aura of a royal celestial emanating from Severin. He replied calmly, "Yes. He does go by that sometimes."Observing Severin's entourage, the other true immortal—who was a much shorter guy—noted that Carson and the others exuded a formidable strength. After glancing cautiously all around, he lowered his voice and cautioned, "Tread carefully, my friend. Word on the street is that he's got a very odd character, and his strength rivals that of only quasi-royal celestials. Last I heard, he abducted Gyddur's daughter and even toyed around with the extraterrestrial royal celestial Verdanto. You need to be careful when associat
The entire Realmgate City was meticulously arranged according to the shape of a trigram. It was essentially a massive formation that served to seal off the passage to the border sea beyond!After guiding his group to their residence on Eighth Street, Severin started unpacking so he could settle in. As he was about to finish packing, a green stone tablet suddenly materialized in the sky above Realmgate City. Emitting a majestic aura, it bore golden runes on its surface.[Hartberg has earned a hundred points after slaying the Devil Realm's royal celestial, Busriv, on the border sea battlefield in 2180 C.C. (Celestial Calendar). He now boasts a total of two thousand merit points and is currently ranked first on the True Dragon Board!]Severin was rendered speechless upon seeing the announcement. "The old wacko seems to have become rather powerful now."The green stone tablet was none other than the True Dragon Board! Crafted from fragments of an ancient heavenly treasure known as the
Inside the cave, a disheveled and sloven old man wearing a white robe was gleefully counting the trophies within his spatial ring. Those trophies had all been obtained after his victory over a celestial lord on the border sea's battlefield. At that moment, a token-shaped mysterious light penetrated the cave's restrictions and appeared in front of the old man."Open the door, old man," the voice echoed.It had been ages since the old wacko heard anyone call him that. He was stunned at first, but anger soon filled his face as he wondered who could have been so audacious as to speak to him in such a manner.As he was about to have an aneurysm, he felt that the that the voice in the token was somehow very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before. All of a sudden, the old wacko recalled the disciple he had once accepted on Earth—a young man named Severin Feuillet!After coming back to his senses, he stood up in a face full of disbelief and extended his divine senses beyond his a
Severin's pupils suddenly contracted in shock. With the appearance of the heavenly heart imprints, it was no wonder that those royal celestials would make such a significant move. It was a divine artifact, after all, one that harbored the secret of the Bleu Celestial Realm's original space.Severin's heart tightened at that realization. He, too, possessed a fragment of the heavenly heart imprint. Should such information be made known to the public, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of several royal celestials. At that moment, he resolved secretly to conceal the heavenly heart imprints.After spending most of the day reminiscing with the old wacko, Severin felt incredibly pleased as he departed. Before he left, he informed the old wacko where he and the Longevity Alliance was staying and extended an invitation for him to join them. However, the old man declined and merely bid Severin farewell with a smile.As Severin's figure faded into the distance, a flicker of relief grac
