Severin had faced desperation before, and it took him a painstaking amount of effort to corner Gyddur within his own space-time domain. There was no chance he would allow Gyddur to slip away.Severin suppressed time and space with his powerful spiritual consciousness. All of a sudden, the Oculus Blade vanished suddenly from his grasp, as if whisked away by some unseen forces"You'll perish!" Gyddur's clone erupted in a fury as he sensed an imminent threat to his existence. "To think you've been hiding a trump card until now. Such cunning for one so young!"In Gyddur's eyes, Severin was but a puny speck that toyed with forces beyond his comprehension. However, being ensnared within Severin's space-time domain left Gyddur feeling a genuine sense of peril—the first during the battle.Gyddur's clone then tapped his forehead and unleashed the formidable aura of a quasi-royal celestial. The surrounding space quivered as he sought to shatter the cage shackling him. However, a chill grippe
Nearby the realm's membrane, Lawrence watched Gyddur's retreat with a grin stretching almost ear to ear. Severin's unexpected feat of eliminating the royal celestial's clone under such dire circumstances took Lawrence and others by surprise.Creatia, radiant with celestial light as she stood atop a swirl of laws from the great path, said in awe, "It looks to me that a prodigy similar to that of the Green Emperor has emerged in the Celestial Realm."Meanwhile, the awe-inspiring yet square-faced Libra breathed steadily as wisps of dark and light energy alternated between his nostrils. "Incredible," he mused, stroking his beard. "I have yet to see anyone quite like him, turning the tables and eliminating the royal celestial's clone despite only being a quasi-royal celestial."Severin's achievement marked a historic first in the recorded annals of the Celestial Realm, leaving Libra speculating that there might not be anyone capable of surpassing such a record.The distinction between r
"Is Lawrence truly that generous?""The Celestial Ablution Pond can increase one's chance of making a breakthrough to royal celestial by ten percent.""Severin has struck gold. First, he was favored by Callide, and now Lawrence is allowing him into the Celestial Ablution Pond!""Even Dhorfan and Amin, have never set foot in the Celestial Ablution Pond, and they're the Heaven Palace's successors! It's shocking that the Heaven Palace would grant such an opportunity to an outsider."The true immortals in the border sea engaged in a fervent discussion. Amin, who stood nearby, wore a crestfallen expression and had a self-deprecating smile on his lips. Though he never envied Severin for his prior favor from royal celestial Callide, he was finally gripped by jealousy when Lawrence offered the spot in the Celestial Ablution Pond to Severin.The Celestial Ablution Pond was a priceless treasure salvaged from the ancient Heaven Palace, boosting a quasi-Royal celestial's chance of ascending t
After gleaning insights from Callide about making a breakthrough to royal heaven, Severin expressed his utmost appreciation to her. "Thank you, for your guidance!"Callide smiled, and her beautiful eyes narrowed like crescent moons. "It's just a little nudge. I firmly believe that you will ascend to become a royal celestial," she said, before vanishing instantaneously.Finally, Severin looked at the Pure Heart Sigil in his hand and the vial of Eighturn Golden Pills. He exhaled heavily and said, "Time to gain insight and become a royal celestial!"At that moment, Severin made the resolute decision to ascend as the royal celestial—with a mere thought, the law of space cloaked his body as he vanished into the border sea.He emerged out of the sea and swiftly returned to where the Longevity Alliance was stationed. After giving his wives an update on the situation, he rose to his feet and went straight to the Heaven Palace in the Nine Heavens. It was located several thousands of miles a
Lo and behold, a shimmering turquoise pool lay before him as he opened his eyes. The Celestial Ablution Pond condensed the three thousand paths, and laws emanating a radiant glow swirled all around. The kaleidoscope of color and sheer abundance of heavenly energy enveloped Severin, leaving him slightly intoxicated and almost spellbound."This is the Celestial Ablution Pond, then…" Severin murmured, his gaze wandering over the ethereal scene. The sensation of entering the pond caused his heavenly heart imprint to resonate intensely, elevating his comprehension of universal laws and the essence of existence to unprecedented heights.The profound transformation of his heavenly heart imprint left Severin awestruck. It seemed as if though the imprint itself yearned for the Celestial Ablution Pond, as though it held the key to mending its fractured essence.Severin regained his focus and wasted no time in swiftly assuming a cross-legged position. He then immersed himself in the Celestial
Severin's resounding yell pierced through the mist of time, causing the laws of the great paths to tremble. His primal spirit then faced an onslaught form the divine chains of law, which hurtled toward the river of time with an overwhelming force.They cleaved through the mist shrouding the river and dragged forth a nebulous figure that exuded a majestic aura and was enveloped in a canopy of purple mist. A divine bridge of paths appeared beneath its feet, and its mere presence evoked a sense of standing as a supreme being.Even the paths themselves found it somewhat difficult to withstand its shadow.The river began to roar incessantly as Severin's future self breached through the mists of time and materialized before him.The past, present, and future seemed to be reverberating in tumult, and the calm surface of the golden river began to surge into several countless wavesEveryone across the Celestial Realm could feel the ripple of change coursing through the river of time. Deep
The nominal ruler of the Tri Celestial Islands was Balke and the Benlagh Sect that he established.At that moment, the spiritual light pervaded throughout Benlagh Island as ethereal rays were scattered everywhere. Dense spiritual energy coalesced into a thick mist, while white cranes flew in a captivating aerial display amidst a symphony of chirping red birds. In the verdant forests were an abundance of animals such as white deer and huge apes. Exotic flora that had been nurtured for millennia flourished abundantly, including orchids, human-shaped panax, fleeceflower, and other medicinal herbs.Nestled within the island's heart was a grand palace adorned with intricate cornices and painted pillars. It was crowned by a resplendent radiance amidst an aura of somber mystique. Deep within the palace, Balke was in the midst of honing his royal celestial divine technique when he abruptly ceased his training and opened his eyes abruptly. As a royal celestial, he was able to keenly sense the
Severin's royal celestial aura reverberated across the realm and shook the Nine Heavens Ten Lands. In every corner from the five main regions to the distant Tri Celestial Islands, all living creatures could sense the imminent arrival of divine power.Those lower than that of true immortals merely felt as though there was a slight pressure over their shoulders, but those more well-versed in the arcane path of the laws, felt a pressure so strong that it felt as though a formidable adversary was pinning them to the ground.Even the ancient celestial lords and royal celestials who were adherents of the ancient school of attainment resisted for but a fleeting moment before succumbing to the overwhelming force and falling flat on the ground. Only those at the quasi-royal celestial level fared slightly better—they did not fall to the ground, but their bodies seemed to hunch down under the still celestial force.With the successful breakthrough of a royal celestial, the heavens and earth th
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
