Chapter 3005

Severin stood in the air with his eyes narrowed slightly as he observed Eliza's lethal moves. "It seems that this ancient royal celestial has something to show in terms of strength," he mused to himself. The law of death that emanated from the Human Skin Flag had already reached its height of power—true immortals who were on Eliza's level would have succumbed to its touch. Each of the three thousand paths could be trained to a high level of mastery and possess the potential to annihilate everything in its path. Severin harbored no illusions about Eliza's abilities, he swiftly took out the Oculus Blade and unleashed several audible sword beams. The resulting explosion split open the gray mist in a sound akin to that of thunder. Eliza's pupils contracted as he beheld the celestial weapon in Severin's grasp. "Your possession of a most potent celestial weapon will only heighten my curiosity about your secrets," he remarked. As an ancient true immortal, Eliza possessed keen insight that was honed over countless eras. He recognized the Oculus Blade as being an elite celestial weapon inscribed with 3,000 laws. Few celestials could possess such an item, even in ancient times. Considering Severin's modest late-stage true immortal attainment, Eliza had some speculation about the origins of such a treasure—he surmised that Severin was either the reincarnation of a royal celestial, or the beneficiary of an extraordinary opportunity. Either way, his secrets could unlock unprecedented possibilities that might allow him to reach royal celestial once the realm convergence was complete. With that in mind, he glanced at Severin with ever increasing intensity, as if he was looking at a most covetous item. With a chilling smile, Severin retorted, "I, too, am intrigued by you, ancient Celestial Lord." The next moment, a torrent of terrifying swordwill surged from Severin and reverberated through the laws of heaven and earth. Drawing upon the boundless power of his inner world, he channeled it into the Oculus Blade and was poised to strike Eliza. The ferocious onslaught bore the power of heaven and earth, carving devastating sword marks across the Eliza Sect's territory. The multi-colored sword beam sliced through the sky, creating web-like cracks. The dense mist produced by the Human Skin Flag was effortlessly shredded by the celestial weapon. Eliza smiled coldly and formed several hand seals to unleash a surge of deathly power. His sublimated aura was reminiscent of royal celestials. Surviving since ancient times, mastering the path of death, and achieving Ultimate Sublimation granted him combat prowess rivalling that of a quasi-royal celestial. At that moment, Eliza's aura permeated through the surroundings, subduing all life within the Eliza Sect's territory. True immortals and supreme paragons alike found themselves prostrated before his overwhelming power. The Eliza Sect's disciples were filled with a sense of awe and reverence, cheering on their leader as they witnessed him display his peak power. "This is the Celestial Lord's ultimate sublime technique!" "Legend has it that ancient immortals who attained mastery in a great path could undergo Ultimate Sublimation, which multiplies their combat prowess several-fold!" "It's such a shame that such abilities were lost when the world was fractured. In this era, even royal celestials could no longer seize a law and forge it into their chosen path!" "I recall our leader employing the Ultimate Sublimation in the legendary duel with the quasi-royal celestial, Yrvan. The outcome was a draw!" Severin's expression soured as he digested the murmurs echoing from the Eliza Sect's disciples.
