The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Klaus was taken aback when Icon said there was a message attached to the 4th form of the Heaven-Defying Body. Already, awakening the Heavenly Tribulation Body was more than enough to send his mind spiraling.

However, there was a message he never expected, but he knew who it was from. After all, the Heaven-Defying Body was created by the Primordial Chaos Dragon, or at least it came from him.

He had already become aware of this long before he started cultivating it. So he looked forward to the message.

”Display it, Icon,” Klaus said, and Icon obeyed.

Soon, the projection of a handsome man with flowing purple hair decorated with red and gold streaks appeared before him. This face immediately registered in Klaus’s mind since he had seen it before.

While the Chaos Dragon had met the Paragon several times, to Klaus, they had only met once, and it was during Planet Awakening.

Back then, had it not been for Chaos and his people, Earth would have faced odds that would have broken them.

In the end, it was Chaos who saved Klaus from death’s door and gave him a second chance.

Chaos—or Kent—projected now was far more handsome, and from just his posture, Klaus recognized that he was looking at a dangerous monster.

This made him furrow his brow.

If he had to estimate, he would say this version of Kent was at least at the Peak Celestial Stage, or maybe even higher.

”Icon, play the message.”

Icon did, and soon, Kent’s projection smiled and started to speak...

”I know, you don’t have to tell me. But I guess you are wondering just how a person can be both handsome, good-looking, and still look and radiate strength?” He grinned and added, ”That can only be me, the Primordial Chaos Dragon.”

Klaus facepalmed, shaking his head at Kent’s shamelessness. Clearly, he never expected Kent to be this shameless when, deep down, they both knew who was better-looking and stronger.

The video continued...

”Jokes aside, hope you are well and alive. Well, since you are watching this video, it means you are alive. That said, since we are here now, allow me to tell you something about the Heaven-Defying Body and why only you qualified to cultivate it.”

Klaus shifted in his seat and started to pay attention...

”A very long time ago, when I started cultivating the Soul Universe Technique you gave me, I promised myself I would repay you with something of equal value. However, it soon became clear to me that just what can I give to the paragon that he doesn’t already have.

This question slowed things down for me. However, it also provided me with a much better question: how best could I help you avoid the annoyance of the heavens?

I am favored by the heavens, so I know just how much their hate would annoy me. Because of this, I set out to find or create something that would add to you.

Fast forward to when my strength reached the stage where I started gaining access to knowledge beyond my universe, I discovered something, or more like an event, called the Great Catastrophe.”

Klaus widened his eyes upon hearing the same words he had been searching for details about. This made him pay even closer attention to Kent...

”This event, from what I found out, is the reincarnation cycle of a universe. Mine hasn’t encountered one yet since it is much younger than most. However, I discovered that your universe has already faced three, and you will be the fourth.

Don’t ask me how I learned this, since I cannot tell you. But upon discovering this, I knew going against the heavens would be the least of your troubles, which was why I did what any good friend and brother would do: I ventured into the Primordial Chaos after finding out there was something there that could help you.

It took millions of years and several brushes with death, but I succeeded, and now, here we are, at the main reason this message was left at the 4th form of the technique.

The Great Catastrophe is basically like every other invasion from another universe. However, these invaders carry the overwhelming power of the Destructive Dao. They will come hard, and they will hit hard.

However, one thing is certain: no matter how hard they punch, you have the body to counter them. Your mission is a critical one, my friend. You have to handle the destruction of your universe in three stages, since your universe has already failed three times to do so.

The Heavenly Tribulation Body was meant to help you level up quickly and venture into the Primordial Chaos once you become a Celestial.

It is the only place where you will learn about the Great Catastrophe and what is coming. Now, you have nothing to worry about as far as the Heavenly Dao is concerned.

With the Heavenly Tribulation Body, you can absorb Heavenly Runes and other things without the heavens having a say in what you do. Basically, the things the heavens would usually make a fuss about in the past, they can’t anymore.

Also, if you want, during the tribulation of others, simply by appearing within it, the danger would become 60% less severe. Basically, the Heaven-Defying Body Art is here to amplify your defiant nature severalfold.

Honestly, I don’t know if this technique surpasses the Soul Universe Technique, but I believe it will serve you well. I am also preparing for my final battle, which I intend to win no matter what.

I just hope you succeed as well, so we can explore the Primordial Chaos together.

Until then, make good use of your new powers and grow to the stage where, with or without the power of the heavens, with or without a defying body, the heavens will tremble before you.

Goodbye for now, Paragon. We will meet again soon.”

The projection faded away, and all Klaus could do was sigh.

He had just learned something new about the Great Catastrophe, but instead of being happy, it had only added to his list of questions.

But he understood that he could not get answers just yet. He still had a long way to go, and so, for now, he would focus on what he could do, and that was ensuring no external threat would catch him off guard when the day arrived.

”This is just too great. Since the heavens no longer have a say in my affairs, then I believe now is the best time to create two more incarnations.”

Klaus smiled and issued the command to Icon to begin the process. Since it had come down to this, he might as well unleash his true power.

His other incarnations, Kaden, Efad, Orion, and Rhazor, were already thriving. Rhazor had become a dragon, raising his already terrifying bloodline to another level. Efad was also pushing closer to becoming one of the greatest Void wielders in history.

If he could unleash two more incarnations, there was no telling what he could achieve in the near future.

”Aside from the Void Race, the Foreign Race, and whatever is coming after that, the Heavens Court must also be brought down a peg. I need them kept in check so they wouldn’t be a problem in the future.”
