Segerne was renowned as a genius among the ranks of his brethren, holding a prestigious position in the top three. Such a ranking was a reflection of his considerable strength. Yet he had met an abrupt demise at the hands of Severin after barely several exchanges.The sudden display of overwhelming combat prowess left everyone present numb and bewildered, and even the old wacko who had earlier dispatched an adversary effortlessly found himself momentarily stunned upon witnessing Severin's swift dispatch of a quasi-royal celestial.Upon regaining composure, he grinned and exclaimed, "Well done!"The extraterrestrial practitioners were the first to recover from the shock. Among them stood a quasi-royal celestial adorned with menacing horns and an aura akin to that of a demon. The practitioner exuded a boundless dark energy and glanced malevolently at Severin."You shall pay with your life. Our Chaotic God Clan will not rest until justice is served!"Gyddur would be furious to learn
The royal celestials had a drastic shift in expression after hearing that. All five of them noticed that the membrane was being forcefully torn open on the other side of the Devil Realm in the chaotic void beyond the Celestial Realm. A space-time rift was created as a result.A majestic aura that was stronger than that of a sacred mountain pulsated along the realm's membrane, just above the border sea. Reflections were casted in the heavens as the great path seemed to undulate.In the chaotic void beyond the Celestial Realm, a towering figure glared down in livid anger. His terrifying aura stirred the boundless chaos like a tidal wave, setting off shockwaves in the air several millions of miles wide.Lawrence rose swiftly and tore through the void to step past the Celestial Realm's membrane. He gazed at the imposing figure with a grim expression and bellowed sternly, "Your disciple's fall is the result of his own weakness, Gyddur!""Are you here to challenge me?" Gyddur descended i
The dilemma left Lawrence and the others feeling extremely uneasy. Allowing the clone in would imply that they did not place their prodigies' well-being as a priority. That would turn into a disincentive for anyone to heed their orders in the future. As they contemplated the situation, Lawrence with a grim expression confided in Creatia and Callide. He had already made his decision, and he wanted to seek their opinion on that.None of them wished for a war to erupt at that juncture, and they found themselves grappling with the same conflicted emotions as Lawrence. With a heavy heart, Lawrence swiftly reached out to Severin's divine senses in the border sea below and explained the situation to him, "Severin, you just killed Gyddur's apprentice, and he is requesting us to let his clone enter our realm. If you can hold out against him for a while, I shall give you an Eighturn Golden Pill and a chance to be baptised in the Heaven Palace's Celestial Ablution Pond. Does that sound agreeable
As this scene unfolded, everyone across the border sea were in shock. True immortals and quasi-royal celestials alike wore expressions of horror as their pupils contracted sharply.Gyddur's arrival spelled disaster for them! Though his current form as a clone might only have the strength of a quasi-royal celestial, the capabilities inherent from a royal celestial's form could unleash the most formidable divine techniques. The presence of such a formidable person threatened the lives of all those present within the real sea.In stark contrast to the fearful expressions of those in Celestial Realm, jubilation swept through the extraterrestrial contingent within the Devil Realm."Hahaha, let us welcome our royal celestial's arrival!" they exclaimed."It is our pleasure to be in his presence!"The few highly-ranked prodigies swelled with pride and exhilaration. The unexpected arrival of Gyddur had bolstered their confidence, assuring them of victory in the impending battle at the bord
Following that realization, Hartberg covertly reached out to Severin's spiritual consciousness and whispered urgently, "Flee now! Prioritize your survival! Those royal celestials have an agenda! They can't even win against the Gyddur, yet they've allowed him to send his clone in!"Hartberg was tremendously disappointed in Lawrence's group.Severin smiled wryly after receiving Hartberg's advice. Instead of fleeing, however, he maintained a composed demeanor as he gazed calmly at Gyddur in the distance. "Your praise is appreciated, Your Excellency," he retorted casually. "But compliments aren't going to bring your disciple back. He has no one to blame but himself if his abilities fell short."Gyddur's chest burned with indignation at Severin's audacity, and his expression soured ominously. He narrowed his eyes and emanated a menacing aura before saying to Severin in a frigid tone, "You will regret this."Being mocked by a quasi-royal celestial was a first for Gyddur. Without further
Sympathy stirred among the Celestial Realm's practitioners as they watched Severin pant heavily and helplessly while still oozing blood from the wounds inflicted by the Gyddur's clone.However, they also knew that Gyddur's clone could only enter the border sea after a tacit approval from Lawrence and the other royal celestials. It could not have been done without their consent. They felt that Severin's fate was already sealed when the Gyddur sent a clone in. After all, no one could withstand the might of a royal celestial, and Severin was no exception despite being a quasi-royal celestial.Though Gyddur's past self merely matched the power of a quasi-royal celestial, he could still wield the formidable techniques of a full-fledged royal celestial, notably the Almizali Art—one of the 36 top divine techniques that was capable of upending worlds and eradicating all in its wake. Even though Severin was undefeatable by most quasi-royal celestials, he found himself outmatched when faced wi
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
