Chapter 3001

Deep within the Eliza Sect in the Devil Realm was a palace saturated with the aura of death. One could liken it as the very being of hell itself. Their leader, Eliza, was meditating with his eyes closed when sensed a disturbance in the soul restriction he had set. Realising that the group led by Esmael was facing an extremely dire situation after being sent out to explore beyond the crack, Eliza swiftly employed a secret technique to traverse billions of miles of void. Upon assimilating Esmael's memories, Eliza controlled Esmael's body and glanced at the young man before him. To Eliza's discerning gaze, Severin exuded an aura of heroic radiance and law, resembling a majestic divine general that commanded the submission of heaven and earth! As an ancient true immortal and an esteemed royal celestial, Eliza instantly recognized Severin's ability as a true immortal of considerable prowess. He had never thought that the weakest of worlds would be able to produce someone as strong as Severin. Fueled by a fiery and covetous glint in his eyes, Eliza glanced at Severin with interest and remarked, "I am surprised that a true immortal such as yourself would hail from such an insignificant little place. Either you or this world conceals a monumental secret—that much I am certain!" Witnessing the arrogant demeanor of Eliza, Severin retorted with a sardonic sneer, "You talk big for a guy who needs to manifest in a vessel before speaking to me!" Had Eliza appeared in his true form, Severin might have been wary of him in consideration of the carnage that might befall the Skyblue Sect and Earth. The notion that a true immortal had intended to exploit him was truly a laughable one. Severin had nothing to fear when he had already killed the projections of royal celestials and ancient true immortals! Eliza had a sour expression as he observed Severin's petulant attitude. With a sinister sneer, he said, "How sharp in wit and tongue. I shall not stand for this humiliation!" The ancient true immortals and present true immortals represented two distinct paths and two different training systems! They were invincible among others of the same strength levels and were more than capable of fighting across realms! Their form of address as 'lord' was derived from their designation of Celestial Lord. Although the form in which Eliza manifested could only summon the power of an early-stage true immortal, Eliza was confident in keeping Severin in check until his true form breached the void and reinforced them. With that resolve, the essence of death flourished around him, coalescing swiftly into wisps of gray mist. He unleashed the aura of a true immortal, causing the surrounding space to distort audibly. In an instant, darkness enshrouded the entire Earth, evoking an apocalyptic scene. Countless electronics began to malfunction, while pedestrians shrieked in terror. Eliza licked his lips in anticipation and delivered a violent punch toward Severin. The expansive gray mist which contained the law of death turned into a formidable fist beam. Practitioners, flora, and fauna met an instantaneous demise when the mist unfortunately came into contact. Death eroded them tremendously. "That little trick isn't going to do anything to me!" Severin snorted contemptuously. He stepped forward and manifested the laws of time and space, forming a divine path beneath his feet that instantly locked Eliza in place. Space and time within a thousand-mile radius froze instantly, halting the law of death's spread. For the moment, at least, Earth was safeguarded from further peril. The next instant, Severin's fingers turned into swords and resonated with a resounding swordwill. A dazzling light erupted from his fingertips, resembling the primordial radiance that birthed the cosmos. Brimming with a boundless power, it pierced through the void and overwhelmed everything in its path. Eliza had to face what was plainly an unparalleled might. As soon as the death-infused gray mist collided with the sword's beam, it shattered into a million different fragments. The residual force of the sword beam continued at full force, as if the very power of heaven was descending down upon them. Eliza's expression became gloomy, and he suppressed his erstwhile arrogance before exclaiming in horror, "The laws of time and space? And the laws of swordsmanship too?"
