Life After Prison by Silencieux

Chapter 2317

In response to Blake's stunned expression, Severin said, 'Nothing is impossible."

Severin's physical body had undergone special tempering, and he was already able to transcend levels since the time when he was still a supreme saint! Armed with the Book of True Void Enlightenment and the exercises he had obtained from Wildfire's ruins, he was later able to focus on honing the power of energy and blood.

When he made the breakthrough to paragon, Severin utilized his body as a vessel to traverse the sea of suffering. In that way, the power of energy and blood-which could be likened to a furnace of heaven and earth-stirred his primal spirit and allowed him to connect with the power of heaven and earth.

Wildfire was a renowned figure in Southsky thousands of years ago. He possessed an invincible presence with a powerful physical body and the magical power of the Wildfire Lotus. Even the neighboring Westregion and the royal paragons of Midland were unmatched by Wildfire's abilities. Were it not for Wildfire's untimely demise and unsuccessful breakthrough to supreme paragon, Wildfire would have dominated Southsky without a doubt.

Severin, having comprehended the Book of True Void Enlightenment, had later familiarized himself with the Lotus Divine Attack. Coupled with the nourishment of the Lunar Dew, his physical strength could rival even a supreme- grade spiritual treasure. His strength was comparable to that of a true dragon or an ancient non-human being, Severin could manage to crush a superior-quality spiritual treasure with little effort.

Meanwhile, Blake was strong, but his spiritual treasures were limited to superior-quality ones even though he had a level five paragon attainment and was a talented member of the Menzies. Though Severin might possibly be inferior in strength, he possessed a physical body that could move mountains, part the seas, and cleave the void. That alone had surpassed Blake's abilities.

It was for those reasons that Severin had the audacity to encroach upon the meteorite belt that Blake had found. After recovering from the initial shock, Blake admitted, "I guess I underestimated you. I now understand where your arrogance is coming from."

Blake had attacked Severin out of pure rage and was not thinking straight. It was only when Severin successfully resisted him and brandished a superior-quality spiritual treasure that Blake finally set aside his pride and contempt. Blake realized that he was facing an opponent of equal strength to Elron, Greatflare's ninth prince.

Blake hailed from the Menzies-one of the eight aristocratic families in Eastplain. They had made a name for themselves after their ancestors succeeded in laying down the foundations after becoming a celestial. With the Menzies' bloodline, he possessed true celestial blood which was unique from that of other prodigies. Though the true celestial blood within him was only a very small amount-perhaps half of the Menzies true divine sons-it was still something that no ordinary person could hope to get.

'I'll show you what happens when you insult our family!" Blake declared coldly. His tone was laced with murderous intent.

As he spoke, the blood energy within him surged, and a clover-like pattern appeared on his forehead. The surrounding space became slightly unstable, and a chaotic turbulence erupted from its rifts. Then, a transcendent aura emanated from within Blake, dwarfing Severin's level three paragon attainment.

Severin's pupils constricted after witnessing the spectacle. "Is this a bloodline power?"

Legend had it that the big families in Eastplain were on par with the sacred lands. They owed their status not only to the strength of their family heads, but also the possession of celestial blood. Descendants born to true celestials had immense talent, and the inherited bloodline power resembled the demon clan Lansbonrket. Such power allowed them to tap into their ancestral abilities, allowed them to acquire the corresponding divine technique.

In Eastplain, the requirement for every generation's divine son was to have a divine constitution and also a strong bloodline power.
