"Good." He nodded, looking at the two; their abilities were different, but both were extraordinary and had massive room for improvement.

The abilities awakened were like transcendent divine abilities, and it will continue to become strong as they improve their cultivation.

And once they stepped into the transcendent realm—they wouldn't just be strong.

They would stand among the elite, even in a transcendent realm where every individual was already a once-in-thousands-of-years genius.

"Thank you, Master Apollo." Both of them quickly dropped to their knees without hesitation, and others also followed them.

Before, their loyalty had been born from fear… from witnessing Apollo's overwhelming strength.

But now—

It was different.

What Apollo had given them was not just power.

He had changed their destiny. And that alone was enough for them to surrender completely.

"Alright, stand up; it's just a beginning. You all will have more chances in the future."

"Yes, Master!" All of them roared in excitement that they would have chances to receive this kind of blessing. Most of them understood the eternal god realm was the height they could achieve in their lifetime, but now they have a chance to reach the legendary transcendent realm.

The skyship continued to fly, and finally they arrived at the territory of the Fletcher clan.

The Fletcher territory now was completely different, as the aura of heaven and earth was dozens of times more than before, and numerous natural treasures seemed to sprout like weeds all over the place.

Such a drastic change had naturally thrown many places into chaos.

But the Fletcher Clan was no ordinary force.

Before leaving, Apollo had stationed Void Gods and True Gods there as guardians. Thanks to them, the clan had quickly stabilised the situation, unlike many other territories that had descended into disorder after Rion's awakening.

The moment they appeared naturally, the guards' void-god or true-god realm noticed the skyship. Apollo quickly released his aura; only then did they calm down.

The ship landed right beside the Fletcher estate. But nobody from his family came as they were breaking through their realms.

The changes in Rion were terrifying, especially for weaker warriors or ordinary humans. The transformation was so impressive that more than 90% of people directly became limit-breaking warriors.

Otherwise, survival itself would have become impossible.

Awakened Rion was no longer the same world as before. Even the planet's gravity had increased five or six times over, and it was still rising.

An ordinary person, unable to control prana, would be crushed to death just by trying to live in this new environment.

And this was only the beginning of Rion's awakening.

Naturally, those who were already first-rank limit breakers, second-rank, third-rank or anyone below the Void God realm all received the greatest boost and at least broke through one small realm.

The sudden increase in strength caught everyone off guard, and many cannot control their strength; hence, most of them were in closed-door training to adjust to their breakthrough and even trying to improve more in such a favourable situation.

Apollo's family was also in such a situation; all of a sudden they broke through, and they all were trying to consolidate or improve their strength. Within the estate, only a few guards or servants who had adjusted to their sudden breakthrough were the ones working.

Apollo's spiritual sense quickly scanned the entire estate, and he instantly understood everyone's situation. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

His family had improved quite a lot; his father and mother seemed to have reached the fourth-rank limit-breaker while his grandfather was already a fifth-rank saint limit-breaking warrior.

This might seem like nothing impressive for a powerful transcendent family; they have reached this level by their own, and they have never used violent methods or destructive treasures to forcefully raise their cultivation. Doing so would damage their foundation and ruin their future potential.

But now he had the ancient cauldron, which wasn't like any natural treasure that would ruin their future but instead would increase their talent and potential along with strength.

But this wasn't the most surprising thing. What was surprising was his big sister Astraea was still here, and not only did her strength seem to have reached the transcendent, but it also seemed it wasn't just first order.

"My sister is really something; her improvement is quite fast." He murmured as he looked at the eastern side of the estate.

With Astraea present, the Fletcher family would possess another Transcendent to stand against the chaos of the awakened Rion. And she wasn't ordinary or transcendent; her aura was quite mysterious and gave him the same feeling as supreme.

With both him and Astraea guarding the family, they would finally possess the strength to secure a place for themselves in this new era—

An era where countless ancient monsters had awakened once more.

She also noticed Apollo's aura and then came out looking equally surprised. She also felt the change in her brother's aura and can guess he had also reached a transcendent level.

But a transcendent level wasn't something that could be achieved in a short time, even in the current situation of Rion. However, Apollo did this, and he was definitely not an ordinary transcendent.

"Little brother, you seem to have become stronger." Astraea tearing through space appeared right in front of Apollo with a smile on her face.

"I can say the same, sister." Apollo replied equally with a calm smile. Neither of them asked why their strength improved, as they know they each have their secrets.

"So, Sister, what can you say about what's happening to the Rion?" he asked, hoping to get to know more. She is an ancient reincarnation and knows quite a lot of secrets of the universe.

"Not much, brother." She moved her head and sighed. "This era is different, and many things are going to change and become unpredictable.

"Even now, the continents themselves are beginning to merge. Something like this never happened in previous eras. Only ancient legends mention it."

She paused briefly before continuing.

"They say that during the First Era, when the universe was newly born, Rion existed as a single massive continent surrounded by endless seas."

"And this transformation…" her expression grew serious, "…is far more intense than anything from my era."

"The aura and clarity of the rules right now had already reached closer to the peak level during my time, yet this is only the beginning. When Rion fully awakens, I cannot fathom what kind of land it would become."
