Upon his return to Enchanted Peak, Severin wasted no time in making arrangements. The only way to harness the fortunes of all races was to reclaim the Heaven Palace. With that in mind, he Summoned the quasi-royal celestials of the Longevity Alliance to the courtyard. Adrian, Amethyst, and the old wacko—amongst others—gathered in response to his call.Seeing as all members of the Longevity Alliance were already there, Severin wasted no time in laying out the grim reality. "The extraterrestrials' dark upheaval has been persisting for decades. Even Lawrence from the Heaven Palace has succumbed to their attacks. We are now at a clear disadvantage. Therefore, I propose a united effort to gather the fortunes of all races and launch an assault on the Heaven Palace. Does anyone have any objections?" he asked, his tone inviting discussion.As expected, opinions varied. The Old Wacko was the first to voice his concerns. "Are you suggesting that we re-establish the Ancient Imperial Court?" he

Across the Nine Heavens Ten Lands in the Bleu Celestial Realm, all living beings felt their souls tremble as if some mighty entity had been born.Amidst that sense of unease, vivid images of 3,000 paths shimmering with divine light flooded their minds. The phenomenon seemed to transcend time and space, etching themselves into every being's consciousness. It was as though their minds were no longer their own, but instead, was being overridden by those inexplicable visions. Generally speaking, only beings below that of royal celestial would experience something like that, but it had reached a point where even the great royal celestials found themselves grappling with those intrusive images.Inside Heaven Palace's Pure Heart Hall, Oliver was busy comprehending the laws of heaven and earth when those uncontrollable visions jolted him from his reverie. "What's happening?" Oliver's eyes widened, mobilizing his vast celestial power in a futile attempt to expel the strange visions.Within s

Severin shook his head solemnly. "I will not grant unto you that luxury."No sooner had he uttered those words than the horror-stricken Oliver felt the thread of his destiny severed abruptly. Though enlightenment had eluded him since time immemorial, death had found him swiftly. An almighty force that spanned across the realm and poured light over time and space obliterated him in an instant.Helpless against such overwhelming power, Oliver knew his demise was imminent. Yet, the primal instinct to survive drove him to one final, manic, desperate act—self-destruction.The power from a royal celestial's self-destruction was formidable enough to threaten the very fabric of the Nine Heavens. Fractures appeared across Oliver's body, and destructive light burst from the cracks. However, all form of resistance proved futile against a quasi-celestial regent like Severin.Severin then remarked expressionless, "I had intended to spare a fragment of your soul, as your plans in the devil realm

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

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
