However, what Diane and others did not expect was that Quintus had already driven to Severin's residence with his father, Barrie, and other elite fighters. Another man in his twenties came along with them too."This is Severin's home, Eugene!" Quintus led his distant cousin over and pointed out Severin's house.Eugene could not help but smile and say, "The Novaks are a second-tier family in Riverson, and you're their scion too! I didn't expect you to suffer so much in this small city. I wouldn't have known if you didn't tell me about it!"Jada smiled wryly from one side, "We're lucky that none of our acquaintances in Riverson know about this, otherwise I'd be ashamed to go out and meet people. I hope you're able to help us reclaim our dignity today!"Eugene looked at Jada and said, "Don't worry. You'll have my help for sure!""Indeed. Eugene has enjoyed practicing martial arts since he was a child, and I've always known that he'll grow up to become someone promising. Quintus, on t
Quintus immediately said, "It's these girls, all right. The head of our bodyguards are no match for them at all! Even though none of our guardians have taken action as of yet, I can tell that they're no match for any of these women. That's the reason I'm asking you for your help, Eugene!"After saying that, Quintus still saw no sign of Severin and could not help but frown. He then said to Diane, "Where's your man? Hehe, did he run off with his tail between his legs after knowing that I brought my guys over today?"Diane's face soured as she said, "Severin went out, but he'll be back by today." After a pause, Diane continued, "Didn't you just swear a few days ago that you'll walk the other way and avoid messing with us again? Why are you here now? Aren't you ashamed of being a man who doesn't keep his word?"Quintus did not get angry after hearing that and laughed instead. "Haha! I am flexible man, if you get my drift. I had no choice but to give in under those circumstances. Today,
"Arrogant much? Let's see what you're made of then!" Naomi could not stand it any longer. She took one step forward, clenched her fist, and manifested a gust of spiritual energy on her fists. Upon seeing the strong fluctuation of Naomi's spiritual energy, Eugene frowned instantly and clenched his fists before throwing a punch.A slight boom was heard, and the force pushed Naomi back seven or eight steps behind before successfully stabilizing her firm figure. Meanwhile, Eugene only took two steps back. Judging from the confrontation between the two, it was clear that Eugene had the upper hand."Awesome! My cousin is better than Severin's bodyguards!" Quintus was not that dumb, and he could immediately tell that his cousin was stronger than the opponent. As a result, he felt even more reassured, thinking that his cousin might have only used less than one-tenth of his strength to throw that punch. At long last, they could all finally avenge themselves for the shame that they suffered!
"I'll do it!" Wendy knew the limits of Naomi's strength, and if Naomi could not hold her own against the opponent, then the outcome would probably be the same even if either Abigail or Lillie came forward."Oh? You're not going to surrender, then?" Eugene then smiled slightly as he flew up and said to Wendy, "I must say, Severin is quite amazing. I can't figure out how he managed to invite such strong people like you to become his bodyguard!""Enough with your nonsense! Come at me!" Wendy waved at the other party with a goading look on her face."Hmph! You think I'm afraid of you?"Eugene flew even higher, and the two of them began to fight! Several minutes into the fight, Eugene realized that something was amiss—Wendy's attainment level was the same as his, but she was better than him in terms of combat power. Although he was able to hold out for several minutes, he was still no match for Wendy and was struck so heavily that he fell back to the ground. He spat out a mouthful of bl
Severin glanced insipidly at him. "I take it you're the old b*stard?""Old b*stard?" Barrie gritted his teeth angrily after being called that. He immediately glared at Severin and lashed out, "Pretty brave of you to call me that! You must've grown sick of life?"Severin smiled and said, "Well, your son is a little b*stard, and rather than doing what a father should do by educating your son, you brought a whole host of people to my house just to terrorize my family. Calling you an 'old b*stard' is justified!""Why you little..." Barrie had never been humiliated so terribly before, and he wanted to step forward and punch Severin as soon as he clenched his fist.His men, who were all standing behind him, stopped him immediately. Even if they combined all their strength, they would probably not be able to withstand one of Severin's punches with their grandmaster-level attainment."We lost because we were unlucky today. I didn't expect the bodyguards you hired to be so powerful. We ack
To make things worse, Quintus brought his men there when Severin was not at home. If Wendy and the others had not been strong enough to fend them off, the result would have been much worse.Severin clenched his fist and sent his opponent flying with a punch. Eugene fell heavily on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood."What? You're no match for him either, Eugene?" Barrie thought that Eugene could stop Severin, but his face immediately turned pale with fright when he saw that Eugene had been sent flying several meters back."What sort of attainment level does he have? His punch is at least that of a level six or level seven warrior king!" Eugene's heart was filled with turmoil, and Severin's strength had exceeded his expectations.Severin could only smile coldly. He held back from using much of his strength earlier because Eugene would have died from his punch if he did. He then walked slowly toward Quintus with an ice-cold expression."Dad, save me!" Quintus yelled, his le
Barrie could only nod with a listless expression. "I understand that Jada is a good girl, Victor. She persuaded me and Quintus not to trouble Severin anymore, but my son and I didn't listen to her advice. We thought Eugene could help avenge us, but we didn't expect things to turn out this way!""Sigh." Victor sighed and then said to Barrie, "I should remind you again not to think about getting revenge on Severin in the future. It's unfortunate, but we can't afford to provoke him. I was surprised that you came here and went directly to him without telling me. I would've persuaded you against it if I knew that you wanted to cause trouble to them!""What do you mean by that?" Barrie frowned, sensing that there was more to Victor's statement from the latter's tone.Victor then explained, "You might not know this, but a group of elite fighters from Cherridom came over just a few days ago. They were all powerful people, but they all ended up dead after fighting with Severin's female bodyg
The viciousness and coldness that Severin had toward his enemies had long since disappeared when Selene showed up. It was replaced by a warm look of gentleness."You're finally back!" Diane went up to Severin and said with a smile, "It mustn't have been easy for you. Why don't you catch up on your sleep and have some rest?"Severin smiled and said, "Nah, I'm not sleepy! It makes me happy to see that everyone's safe and sound!"Diane was still a little worried as she said to Severin, "We might not need to fear the Novaks, but Eugene is a junior general. Do you think he'll come and cause trouble after being humiliated like this today?"Severin smiled. "Don't worry. There's nothing to be afraid of if your husband is around!"He then glanced at everyone else and said to the bodyguards, "You've worked very hard these past few days, so how about I will all of you to a big dinner later tonight? It's about time you get some well-deserved rest!""Yay! We get to eat good food tonight!" Wen
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
