At Last, a Paragon!
In the Infernal Realm.
In just over eighty years, Rog had restored the Ice Crystal Crown to its original state. This Sovereign Artifact was most likely left behind by a fallen Sovereign. Compared to ordinary Soul Defense Sovereign Artifact, it was made with even more care, and it looked exquisite, like a magnificent work of art.
And then another three hundred years passed.
The Netherworld.
A strange, crimson moon, round like a disc, hung high in the sky; tonight was another full moon night. The Nether Mountain, its entire body shimmering with hazy electric light, appeared as if covered by a thin, pale red veil under the moonlight.
On the summit of an unnamed canyon Nether Mountain, a sudden gust of wind abruptly swept in, and a young man in a purple robe floated freely in mid-air. The fierce winds from all directions merely ruffled a single strand of hair on his forehead.
"Boom!" Amidst a series of deep rumbling sounds, bolts of lightning from the Heaven and Earth Chains struck the purple-haired youth.
The blazing, sun-like power of lightning did not harm the young man in the slightest. At this moment, Rog had completely entered a state of mindlessness and detachment.
The ultimate fusion of the six profound mysteries has reached its final critical point. Now, all that remains is that last glimmer of inspiration.
Once he finds that glimmer of inspiration, he can instantly complete this ultimate leap!
Once a cultivation technique reaches a bottleneck, most people may not be able to break through for billions of years. But some people may break through in just a few days. This requires opportunity, a sudden flash of inspiration.
But Rog had long ago grasped the essence of the Laws of Lightning — Penalty!
The Laws of Lightning is also a primordial power that naturally arose after the birth of this world. Its purpose is to Penalty all living beings in this world...
He had already grasped this principle during the Fog Sea Riot. Therefore, all he needed to do now was to find that trace of its unique characteristic once again!
This is almost impossible for those who have never grasped the essence of the law. But for Rog, who has already come into contact with that characteristic, it is quite easy. Perhaps, it will only take a few days...
"Kaka--" Like an ancient, primordial beast suddenly letting out a terrifying roar, it neither dodged nor flinched in the face of the raging thunder, clearly angering the Heaven and Earth Chains in the clouds, and streams of even smaller, yet more condensed, black lightning descended upon the world!
"Where lightning strikes, nothing is left undestroyed. Where lightning arrives, all things tremble in submission..." Just as the black lightning was about to completely engulf him with its deathly power, he finally captured that awe-inspiring aura once more!
The black lightning illuminated the blissful smile on his face, and at the same time—
In his mind, the thunderbolt that symbolized the awe-inspiring power of all things shattered the endless silence and long, dark night!
As darkness recedes, dawn will soon arrive!
Everything was ready, just waiting for that moment of inspiration, and now, the moment has arrived!
With a smile on Rog's face, the black lightning could no longer disturb him in the slightest...
Although it sounds slow, this flash of inspiration, this sudden enlightenment, happens in an instant.
"Boom!"
The world is undergoing a dramatic change; the Natural Laws are being invoked!
"Finally, it's a success!" Rog had opened his deep black eyes, and in those jet-black pupils, the most terrifying power of thunder in the world was faintly reflected.
Rog glanced around; endless, raging Lightning Element were surrounding him, and the Natural Laws had descended, altering his soul!
"My breakthrough was due to a combination of coincidences, and even partly due to the help of a prophet; otherwise, I don't know when I would have been able to achieve it." Even so, Rog had reason to be proud!
After all, what Paragon isn't built upon a path filled with various coincidences and chance encounters?
The path traversed by every Paragon High-God is almost impossible to replicate.
"It is also one of the most incredible miracles in this world." "Is this the power of Willpower?" Rog clearly sensed that each of his souls was gradually improving. Not only the Lightning Divine Clone that had just broken through, but also the Death Divine Clone and the Saint Domain True Body. Even the Light God Clone, far away in the Infernal Realm, had received this blessing from heaven and earth!
It was precisely because of Rog's Soul Mutation that all the souls underwent a transformation during this breakthrough.
This can be considered one of the special advantages of Soul Mutator, but unfortunately, very few people can reach this stage.
Rog smiled as he experienced the profound changes occurring within his various souls at that moment.
"The Willpower is indeed unique. Now, not only has my strength increased dramatically, but I also have a special feeling! A feeling of control! A sense of control over matter, and even over the surrounding space." Rog raised his fist directly, "My current feeling is that, without any mystical techniques, I can easily tear through space."
Following that unique sense of control over the surrounding space, Rog easily ripped a line with his palm. "Pfft—" The Netherworld space was easily torn open like a piece of cloth, leaving a huge crack more than a meter long. Rog felt that if he used a little more of his profound power to enhance it, the Netherworld space would be no stronger than a fragile piece of paper in his eyes.
By the way,... [version].
"The absolute increase in strength brought by this Willpower is roughly a thousand times stronger than that of an ordinary Commander. However, the many other wonderful uses brought by this Willpower cannot be measured simply by the strength of the individual." The various mysteries of Paragon High-God are still waiting for Rog to slowly explore.
The Willpower is indeed a unique ability in this world. Even the sliver of power that Rog acquired is far less useful than this Willpower.
The reason why the Willpower is so strong is because it contains the laws of Natural Laws! Since the will contains the Natural Laws, it can naturally control heaven and earth. This is a special power! It is a power that only Paragon and Sovereign possess! No matter what kind of attack it is, once it contains the Willpower, its power will be ridiculously great.
"This Nether Mountain..." Rog was calmly experiencing this feeling of control; the fluctuations in space and any movement around him were all under his control.
A wonderful feeling I've never experienced before!
In the past, even after defeating Gunther and being protected by the Sovereign Artifact, he still felt a strong sense of crisis when facing Paragon High-God like Ninisha. But now, he felt like he controlled the fate of others. It was a feeling of being high above, looking down on all living beings!
"I really want to find someone to test my skills against." After breaking through to the Paragon, Rog was in high spirits. He even looked forward to fighting other peak experts.
"This guy actually reached the pinnacle of sublimation and directly achieved the Paragon of the Laws." In the chilling Sovereign Palace, a woman in a purple robe with long, blood-red hair watched this scene unfold in astonishment.
Her youthful, pretty face was absolutely stunning. Yet, the aura she naturally exuded was enough to render even the gods powerless. This was the Sovereign of the Netherworld, one of the four Higher Plane! The most powerful, the pinnacle, and the invincible being!
The battle between Rog and Gunther caused quite a stir at the time. Although the Sovereign of Death did not personally go to the Infernal Realm to watch the battle, he later witnessed the Floating Shadow of the two fighting.
At that time, although Rog's methods were somewhat extraordinary, overall, his strength was still much weaker than that of a true Paragon High-God.
Clearly, he wasn't at the Paragon at that time. And since Rog had been cultivating in seclusion on her Nether Mountain for so long, it was impossible for her not to have discovered him. She had been silently monitoring his movements all along.
However, when she actually witnessed this scene, she still felt somewhat incredulous. Although she had been born since ancient times and had lived through countless years, she had never been able to achieve this.
As for Rog, even counting from when the other party first stepped into the Infernal Realm, only tens of thousands of years have passed since then, and there is still some time before a hundred thousand years have passed.
Ten thousand years, from Midgod to the Paragon! Even she had to admire Rog!
