Severin could not help but shudder as he reflected on the harrowing encounter. He silently acknowledged that it was the protection conferred upon him by the heavenly heart imprint that prevented him from being utterly obliterated by the terrifying force of the swordwill's projection.
Gazing upon the tranquil flow of the golden river before him, Severin's expression turned solemn. He surmised that the expansive realm he had glimpsed was none other than the ancient Bleu Celestial Realm. However, the answer as to what sort of cataclysmic event could have prompted the celestial sovereign to unleash his transcendent power and cleave the river of time with a single stroke of divine will remained unknown.
Throughout history, individuals of supreme mana and supernatural prowess had sought to obliterate all remnants of the era preceding the intervention. Even with the heavenly heart imprint in his possession, Severin remained unable to peer beyond that veil of that erased era. It was a privilege reserved for royal celestials who could gather the timeline and unify the three incarnations.
After a brief contemplation, Severin shook his head and quelled the insistent curiosity gnawing at his core. "Overindulgence is only going to haunt me with unnecessary worry," he admonished himself. "This journey has deepened my understanding of the law of time."
His sojourn in the original space had borne fruit. The three thousand laws had coalesced within him, manifesting as resplendent golden runes that formed the very principles of heaven and earth. Should he master each rune to perfection, the laws governing his Small Thousand Worlds would see much progress too.
Moreover, Severin had unexpectedly acquired treasures such as the heavenly heart imprint—a relic forged from the primordial essence of the Bleu Celestial Realm. It was something that even royal celestials would covet. Severin, who had integrated the heavenly heart imprint within him, was bestowed the perpetual blessing of heaven and earth. The realm's secrets lay unveiled before him, and the fates of all living beings could be known with a mere thought.
Simultaneously, within his Small Thousand Worlds, he brought forth the elements and unleashed countless thunderous waves. The void was shattered, and the boundaries of the Small Thousand Worlds began to grow.
Severin's joy knew no bounds as he beheld that spectacle. However, he understood that transcending the realm of true immortality posed a formidable challenge, as small success with all 3,000 paths was required, and great success must be achieved in all the major paths.
The early stages of becoming a true immortal required the understanding of only one law, but moving from early- to mid-stage demanded mastery of hundreds of laws. It was impossible for any ordinary true immortal to achieve unless they spent a thousand years in that. For many true immortals, such a pursuit spanned decades, if not centuries. The minimum required was 100 laws, and those small thresholds often resulted in many true immortals straying perilously close to the twilight of their longevity.
