The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1448: The Solution

In the end, it took Klaus two good hours to handle his emotions.

When he was done, he decided to get right into business. His grandma is still sick, so the only solution he can come up with has to be discussed.

”I have come up with two solutions. The first has to do with downgrading your cultivation all the way back to the Immortal Lord stage. This would then allow you to live without the sickness and wait till we can recover your god core.

Once we recover it, you can then absorb it and rise back to the god stage. However, doing so would downgrade your bloodline potential. So far, you have a Supreme-grade bloodline; however, when all is said and done, it will decline to god-grade.

Also, once it reaches that stage, it cannot rise again. This means your chances of becoming a Supreme will fall below 20%.”

”That is not good,” Goddess Nivara said, causing Klaus to nod.

”It is indeed not good. However, it is the only way you can keep your strength and immortality.”

She nodded, then asked about the second solution. ”What is the second solution?”

Klaus sighed and replied, ”I will have to devour your blood essence, which will cause your cultivation to fall all the way to the Awakened stage. You would then have to work your way back up, and when you get to the Law Formation stage, you would have to form a new core.”

Klaus expected his grandma to frown; however, she smiled and asked a question.

”Are there any benefits to me starting all over again? And most importantly, how does devouring my blood essence help you?”

”Aside from becoming mortal again, you will have the chance to reform your blood essence again. I have a technique that will help you accomplish that.

Of course, since you will be reforming it, there is nothing stopping you from making it a Celestial-grade bloodline this time.

Aside from that, you also get to correct mistakes you made in the past. With me around, you get to cultivate Celestial-grade techniques right off the bat, so basically, this time around, with the experience you already have and the help all of us will be offering, you will be several times better than you were before.

I will also look for resources that will help you add body tempering to your cultivation. This will enable you to further strengthen your body.

Basically, aside from the time you must spend cultivating, you would now have absolute control over where your path goes this time.”

Goddess Nivara nodded, happy with what she would be gaining.

”As to what I will gain, since I will be devouring your blood essence, there is a chance I can use it to raise my cultivation by several levels. Of course, for that to happen, I first need two items.”

”What items do you need?” Queen Leah was quick to ask. She had been waiting for her chance to come, and now that it did, she took it.

”Heart of Tempest Vine and Heaven Forging Liquid.”

”What grades do you want?” she asked, which is a good sign that she actually has them.

Klaus smiled. ”Immortal grade and upwards.”

She nodded. ”I will be right back,” and vanished from where she stood, appearing several kilometers away.

Klaus smiled again, thanking his lucky stars that he had finally found the items to complete the second stage of refinement for his Heaven Defying Body.

Even better, after invoking the Absolute Law, the hold that the heavens had over his head had been severed for now. This means if he were to break through to the Real Immortal stage, there would be no tribulation.

The only thing that would have held him back was his heaven-defying body. He would be able to break through to the Real Immortal stage. However, rising to the True Immortal stage would have been a big problem.

Thankfully, Queen Leah has the items he needed to refine his body. Once that is handled, he and his other two bodies will be able to absorb the Supreme-grade blood essence.

Since there are only three of them at the moment, the chance of one of them becoming a True Immortal is very high.

While the karma currently inside the blood essence will become his to carry, the gain is more than he could ask for. He would become stronger, enabling him to go to places he never knew he had it in him to reach.

”Klaus, are you sure you would be okay?” his grandma asked, but Klaus just smiled and gave her arm a gentle squeeze.

”I will be fine, Grandma. The only thing I am worried about is how fast I will grow. Since the entire universe knows I am an early-stage Immortal, if I were to suddenly rise to the True Immortal stage, it will cause an uproar.”

”Then it should cause one. It would only show just how awesome you are.”

Klaus smiled and nodded.

He knew deep within him that he could only reach the peak of the True Immortal stage for now. The mission the Mission Hall had given him requires him to be below the Immortal King stage if he wants to enter the planetary system undetected.

So he cannot rise above that stage. Thankfully, he has two more bodies to share the essence with.

’On a second thought, since my 8th bloodline has awakened, Icon, why don’t you create the 3rd and 4th personas?’

[Okay, Master.]

Since he already has the Paragon and Criminal personas active, he needs one to head back to Earth to start training and one to handle the void world his wives discovered a while back.

So far, only the Star Monarch bloodline, the Unknown bloodline, and the Primordial Vampire Monarch have awakened.

Now, the Supreme Elemental Bloodline that Kaden (8th incarnation) had once used also awakened.

He had created the Criminal persona from the Vampire Monarch bloodline and the Paragon from the Unknown bloodline.

This means he has two more bloodlines he can use to create two more personas. Fortunately, with this blood essence coming to him, he can make so much progress in a short amount of time.

’Gradually, I am rising back to the stages I was at several millions of years ago,’ he let a warm smile appear on his face.

A few minutes later, Queen Leah returned with the items Klaus requested.

”I only have god-grade versions.”

”That is more than enough, Queen Leah. Thank you.”

She smiled and handed over the two items. Klaus received them and stored them in his space ring. Afterward, he asked Queen Leah again for a favour.

”I will need a secluded spot.”

”I can help with that.” Just when Queen Leah was about to answer, King Alric appeared. ”There is a place very far from here. It is secluded and out of range from the heavens.”

”That will do.”

King Alric nodded and snapped his finger, causing a portal to open. Klaus stood up and took his grandma’s arm.

His wives also stood up, knowing they wouldn’t want to miss this. Klaus, of course, didn’t stop them. They are free to come.

Queen Leah hesitated, but before she could make up her mind, Anna pulled her forward, and they vanished into the portal. After King Alric entered, it closed behind him.
