Chapter 3008
Unfortunately, Severin did not accept Eliza's offer nor heeded his advice. He was already determined to end Eliza's existence. Severin bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence towards the Oculus Blade. At the same time, the power of the heavenly heart imprints surged forth and empowered the Oculus Blade.
The aura of his celestial weapon sent shockwaves through most of the Devil Realm. Dark clouds appeared in the sky like the onset of a cataclysmic event.
In a splendid palace on the sky high above, King Luther was midway through a game of chess with Oliver when he sensed a familiar aura. It reminded him of the celestial weapon he once faced in Bleurealm after his journey through the river of time.
King Luther's movements froze briefly.
"What is it?" Oliver asked with a smile.
"Nothing," King Luther dismissed those thoughts and chalked it up to his overthinking.
Royal celestials like himself were able to oversee the passage of time. No disturbance could escape their notice. Moreover, with heaven and earth yet to converge and the vast distance in the void that separated the Bleurealm, it was inconceivable that Severin would reach the Devil Realm.
However, King Luther had underestimated Severin's reach.
Severin had not only arrived in the devil realm; he was battling a Celestial Lord!
Nothing can escape the gaze of a royal celestial, for they possessed an immense power that enabled them to detect any anomaly in the flow of time.
However, Severin had already concealed himself and his aura using the heavenly heart imprints. Though the imprints were still incomplete, the Devil Realm was still affected because it used to be part of the Bleu Celestial Realm. Even if the royal celestials were unable to scrutinize them closely, uncovering the concealment would prove to be difficult.
Severin was alarmed when he spotted the Oculus Blade's aura surging into the sky above the Eliza Sect, as he knew that there had to be royal celestials lurking in the devil realm. The projection that he had eradicated in the Bleurealm some time ago belonged to a royal celestial from the Devil Realm, and it would be extremely difficult for him to escape unscathed if his attacks drew the other party's attention.
Knowing that there was no longer any time to waste, Severin clenched his teeth and employed the space-time domain to isolate the world and envelope the Oculus Blade's aura. In the meantime, Eliza's expression changed abruptly when he sensed that he had been cut off from the outside world.
The next moment, Eliza's body stiffened and his senses turned numb. The formidable power of time and space had barred the surrounding space, and he sensed a fatal, ominous aura looming from behind, causing goosebumps to appear all over him.
As much as he tried to struggle, Eliza was unable to break free from the space-time domain. Panic soon began to sink in.
His physical body was immobilized, his connection to the power of heaven and earth had been severed, and his soul was barely capable of perceiving any external change. It was his first time encountering such a situation in several million years.
Aware that the killing blow was fast approaching, Eliza's primal soul desperately implored Severin for mercy. "I concede, my friend! I concede! I am willing to offer my primal spirit to you and swear an oath! Please! I promise not to go back on my word! Spare my life!"
Severin was not swayed in the slightest. With a gentle flick of light from his hand, he swung the Oculus Blade down. All Eliza could see was a blinding light as the terrifying sword beam swept across him.
The next moment, a searing pain shot through his forehead, and his soul was torn by the overwhelming power. His upper energy core shattered, while millions of years' worth of mana began to dissipate.
"No!" Fueled by the primal instinct for survival, Eliza's soul struggled fiercely as he roared and erupted with an unprecedented power.
Severin glanced coldly at him, raising his hand briefly before sending down the immense pressure gained from his Small Thousand Worlds. Eliza was suppressed in an instant.
"This is the end for you," Severin declared calmly. Following those words, the Oculus Blade pierced through Eliza's forehead, annihilating his immortal soul and extinguishing his spark of life.
Severin only breathed a sigh of relief when he could no longer sense Eliza's presence.
