"I have nine more halls to locate, so I guess I'll just have to give it my all!" Severin could not help but lament. "I still have to find some spiritual herbs and alchemical materials or else I wouldn't be able to do any alchemy."Wuhlricht, however, smiled again and directly took out a spatial ring, which he tossed to Severin. "Don't worry, I've prepared a lot of materials for you already. There are first-grade and second-grade spiritual herbs here, as well as other supplementary materials that you might need. The only thing that's not in there is third-grade spiritual herbs! Without these, you wouldn't have a chance to succeed in reaching that goal, since you would have to look for the nine others in addition to gathering the materials for alchemy."Severin took the spatial ring, glanced at its contents, and immediately opened his mouth wide in surprise. There were indeed a lot of spiritual herbs in it. Two hundred stalks of first-grade low-rank spiritual herbs were heaped to one c
A sudden thought then occurred to Severin as he asked Wuhlricht, "By the way, are there any treasures in this world that can improve a person's physical fitness? By that, I mean, something that can help a person develop attainment even though they were born without the talent. Do such things exist?"Wuhlricht knew right away why Severin wanted something like that and said to him, "Do you wish to find something like that for your wife? Did you get married to an ordinary woman who doesn't have any sort of attainment?"Severin frowned at Wuhlricht's response. Many practitioners, particularly those with higher attainment, often had a superiority complex and tended to look down on ordinary people who did not have any attainment. It could be likened to how the wealthy look down on the poor. That was why Wuhlricht seemed so surprised when he suspected that Severin was looking for such treasures for his wife.After all, Severin was an incredibly talented practitioner with a high level of at
Severin's vow made Wuhlricht feel as though the job was already half-done.After some more thought, he said to Severin, "By the way, you should come two or three days before August the fifteenth of next year. Don't be late, or else the reward I promised you might just disappear." Wuhlricht then paused before adding, "As long as you bring the twelve hall masters here as I asked, they'll all get something in return too!"Severin became even more excited after hearing that and immediately cupped his hands while saying, "Not to worry! I'll work my hardest to complete this task, more so when you've been incredibly kind to me!"Wuhlricht smiled and said, "Hehe, I only have one senior, and he only has you as his apprentice. It's only right for me to treat you well, especially since geniuses like you are such a rarity. Good luck, and I hope you'll be able to complete it soon!"Wuhlricht got up and reminded Severin. "By the way, the sword I gave you is not only a ninth-grade spiritual weapo
Once Severin came to the city, he went to a restaurant to get some food and then returned to the hotel where he parked his car. He got a room, stayed there, and planned to return to Brookbourn the next morning.…Back at Brookbourn, Diane and had already made their way back to Dragon Lake Vista from the Shanahans. As soon as they entered the front yard, they spotted a large number of cars parked down the mountain.A group of people then exited the car, and their leader was none other than Mehdi, who had reached the third rank of warrior king. "We're here..." he said as he brought a dozen people to the villa and stormed right in."Ma'am, bring your in-laws and your daughter into the house. Judging from their murderous expressions, these people are out to kill!" Wendy immediately said to Diane after seeing the intruders."Okay. Be careful, everyone!" Diane understood how serious the situation was when she saw the group and immediately ran into the house with Selene, Maurice, and Jud
"Why am I not surprised that all of Cherridom's people are a bunch of good-for-nothing perverts?" Abigail clenched her fists and remarked coldly after hearing Mehdi's lewd intentions."Yeah! Go all out against them, girls! They're beasts who must be put down!" Bailey glared at the men in front of her with a killing intent flickering in his eyes."Hehe, I was told that Severin is a very powerful person, but he isn't here now, is he? These bodyguards of his are going to be easy pickings then!" Mehdi chuckled, took a step forward, and clenched his fist to manifest spiritual energy in his palm. It was strong, and it fluctuated violently too."His attainment is impressive. I didn't think he'd be a level three warrior king!" Wendy was able to judge Mehdi's attainment with ease after paying attention to the party's fluctuation in aura. She then said solemnly, "Leave this one to me! You can deal with the others!""Sure thing!" Bailey, Lillie, and the others exchanged glances before nodding
"Spare me, please! I promise not to cause trouble here again!" Mehdi gritted his teeth in fright, for that was his first time feeling the threat of death. He then knelt on the ground and began to kowtow to them.Wendy sneered. "Do you think we'll just let you off so easily when you and your group of scum came to Dracodom from Cherridom to stir up trouble? What do you take us for? Idiots?"Lillie giggled. "Didn’t you act tough earlier? I remember you saying something about capturing us and doing all sorts of unspeakable things to us. You seemed pretty brave earlier. Where did all that boldness disappear to?""Let's kill him instead of wasting our breath with him!" Bailey took a step forward and kicked Mehdi's chest directly. A loud thud was heard as he flew several meters away and twitched a couple of times on the ground before finally losing his breath."Their attainment is quite high, and those warrior kings wore spatial rings too. Let's see if we can get anything interesting from
Diane breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Severin would be back in another two days. Though she also knew that Lillie and the others were already strong enough, the way they respectfully addressed Severin as their master made it obvious that Severin was even stronger than them.Severin chatted with Diane for some time before they ended the call and went to bed.…However, another couple who were lying in bed had insomnia at about an hour past midnight. None of Cain's calls to Mehdi were answered, so both he and Lucy had a bad feeling in their heart."Darling, they couldn’t have been killed, right?" Lucy finally asked Cain after some time had passed.Cain answered gloomily, "I don't discount that possibility. I can't get in touch with them even though it's already passed midnight, so it's quite possible that they were killed too. Are the female bodyguards working for Severin really that powerful? Not even Mehdi and his men are a match for them even though Severin was not
After thinking about how dire everything was, Lucy could not help but ask Cain, "What should we do now? How am I going to spend the rest of my life if you end up being killed by the Slasher Gang one day? Doesn't that mean your wealth will all disappear too? How am I supposed to survive then?!"Cain frowned and sneered. 'All she thinks about is money! It's as if her sole concern is how she'll be able to survive if I'm dead!' However, when he thought about how Lucy had been taking care of him the past few days after his legs were broken, he said to her, "I have a lot of money on me, but I can't transfer everything to you. How about I give you a hundred and fifty million for now, so you'll have enough to sustain you for the rest of your life if someone from the Slasher Gang kills me one day? Does that sound all right?""A hundred and fifty million?!" Lucy gasped when she heard that and felt excitement deep in her heart. However, she soon calmed herself down as much as possible and said
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
