Profane Prince of Domination-Chapter 552 The Supreme Conqueror Part 2
"In the past, Radiant Dragon didn't doubt that Regretless would rise to defeat him. If he couldn't the situation would have been troublesome. Based on Radiant Dragon's past strength, to say nothing of eternal dominion. Even the Firmament's eight Supremes were frustrating enough challenges.
We needed a flawless template, the foundation that would allow us to return with tremendous strength and unrivaled potential. As the number one talent of all times, Regretless was the best option. So we helped him. We groomed his hatred, his thirst for vengeance, helped him thrive on it and rise to become a peerless powerhouse.
And indeed, he didn't disappoint. The creation of that Omniarch Bloodline was proof of our success. Even without becoming Supreme, he already was more than a match for the Firmament's Supremes. Worthy of the title of Number One Prodigy of All Eras."
Talroth sighed in reminiscence, causing Cloud's rage to sear his heart. Some words were difficult to accept. But regardless of how much they gashed, accepting them was the only option.
"Of course, that wasn't enough. We needed to deceive you into thinking that Radiant Dragon's return was on a timeline. That the Conqueror's Will would reincarnate him at random within his birth or death place. But though the return place was indeed either Heaven or Hell, the time was always ours to choose. More accurately, it was the Dharma Lord's."
Having already hypothesized that part, Konrad wasn't too surprised. As for the remaining question, he could now form answers. But as if anticipating them, Talroth pursued.
"With Regretless as the foundation, returning with Supreme level strength was inevitable. Following our merge, becoming a High Supreme was natural. But that wasn't enough, for at the end of the day, Regretless was...too strong. With his potential and means, though we didn't doubt he would never become Almighty, his strength would keep rising. And it did.
To prepare for that, we needed two things, to groom a peerless army, and deflect Regretless' attention with deceit and decoys. Making you believe that Radiant Dragon would be reborn among the three Realms' denizens? Deceit.
As for the decoy, Dragon Warden served that role. Using a Primordial Seed, Radiant Dragon sent him into reincarnation—expecting that the day he formed a True Bridge and revealed his identity, Regretless' attention and wrath would shift onto him. And with the Nirvana Dust Crown, the Dharma Lord saved all the rest. All the dead, from the Six Realms to the Firmament, he saved them all—not only maintaining a sliver of their existence in the crown but taking full control of them.
When their existence returned to completion, the Dharma Lord spread strands across the omniverse, using the powers of Nirvana and Samsara to make them grow through all reincarnations until they reached the peak.
The time of their return is the time of our rebirth!
And now they are ready! We are ready!"
Talroth proclaimed and raised his right hand, causing tens of thousands of light rays to surge from the Nirvana Dust Crown and coalesce in the sky. From the rays, tens of thousands of various figures emerged, startling the world with a mind-boggling eruption of might!
Among them, the primordial remnants such as Cloud, Moon and Night recognized faces that filled them with awe! 16, in particular, kept their eyes wide open!
"The four Dragon Kings."
Cloud whispered as his gaze swept three elderly men and one riveting woman, two of them with golden hair while the remaining two's were silver. In the past, the cultivation of those four was just at the Overgod level. But now, it was already at the peak of the Primordial God Rank!
And that was cultivation alone!
"The three Tribulation Envoys!"
The three Dao Paragons!"
The Nine Nether Monarchs!"
The Eight Supremes!"
Moon said in succession, gasping at the sight of those past powerhouses, none of which appeared weaker than the peak of the Primordial God Rank! Konrad, however, ignored them all to stare at the two now standing beside Talroth.
But if Malkam becoming the third Empyrean Dragon Prince, Dragon Dark, brought him mild surprise, the silver-haired woman at Talroth's right, Asmodeus' new form, filled him with an inexplicable wave of emotions.
"Even imperial mother stands in the midst. Where then is Highest Dragon?"
Konrad whispered, for indeed, that woman, Asmodeus' past self, was none other than Dragon Warden's mother, the Empyrean Dragon Empress, Bright Dragon Star. On the scene, 100,000 Primordial Gods, the majority from the Empyrean Dragon race, gathered around Talroth, around their lord, forming the strongest army of all times.
And in tandem, all dropped on their knees!
"GREETINGS, YOUR MAJESTY!"
The synchronized hail thundered in the sky, shocking trillions to the core of their soul.
"In the past, Radiant Dragon took the reign name of Celestial Slaughter to announce his will to bend the world in a blood storm. In this age, it is still valid. Regardless of what my birth name may be, I am the Supreme Conqueror, Celestial Slaughter!
And if not by right of birth, then through blood and steel, the world shall be mine!"
Celestial Slaughter bellowed, letting his High Supreme Will explode in every word as he stared into Konrad's icy blue hues.
"Son, when you achieved the impossible and formed that Firmament Bridge, you outpaced all my expectations. Only you could somehow deviate from my plans. For that, I praise you.
However, there can only be one eternal ruler. That crown, I claim. Surrender to me and join the ranks of my army! Again in this life, raise your sword in my name, become my number one general, and I promise that you shall be below one but above the rest!
In the future, when I conquer the Firmament, the omniverse is yours!"
Celestial Slaughter offered, making Konrad arch an eyebrow.
"Oh? Old man, apologies, but your perfect script went wrong when you chose to include me in the midst. In this world, there is nothing you can offer me that I can't claim by myself.
The world can indeed only have one sovereign: I!
And I have no position to offer you."
Konrad replied and raised the God Executing Immortal Sword. Right now, there was a serious lack of information regarding Celestial Slaughter's abilities.
Although Konrad reached High Supreme level, possessed a Firmament Bloodline and All-Transcendence, he dared not underestimate him. After all, his cultivation was still at the late-stage of the Anti-God Realm.
Celestial Slaughter, however, seemed to have reached the summit of a Perfect True Bridge. Better, his bloodline strength contained a strange signature even Konrad couldn't fully appraise.
As if he'd already anticipated the reply, Celestial Slaughter nodded in approval.
"Very well, Konrad. Then let the battle for the omniverse...begin!"
Celestial Slaughter exclaimed and stretched out his hands, releasing an irresistible suction force that trapped both Night and Cloud, pulling them toward him!
Right before Celestial Slaughter, a grey vortex appeared, ready to consume the two in their entirety! In the split of a second, Konrad realized Celestial Slaughter now possessed the power to devour his foes and absorb their strength. But though how much he could absorb was uncertain, Konrad would typically never allow such a thing to occur.
But this time, he made no move.
And as Cloud and Night faced the danger of extermination, within the Firmament, Regretless trembled.
…
Within the world of his demons, still enjoying his chess time with Highest Dragon, Regretless was about to move a knight, when his body shook. Instantly, his face twisted into an expression of incomparable fury!
"Imperial uncle, apologies, but I have people to kill."
Regretless stated, and the world of his demons shattered.
…
Back into the real world, Regretless opened his eyes wide, and they now rippled with a force that even surpassed what he possessed before the curse.
Without a word, he stood up and stepped forward, vanishing to reappear in Hell's Sky.
Still without a word, without paying heed to the scene or what it implied, Regretless curved his right hand into a knife shape, and chopped downward!
A formless force exploded, shattering Celestial Slaughter's suction force, and freeing Night and Cloud from his grip.
Only now did Regretless sweep the scene. And though at first, what he saw made his eyes widen, a second afterward, his lips curved into.
"And here I was wondering who was so bold as to threaten my brothers' lives. Celestial Slaughter, it's just you?"
Regretless scoffed with an arrogance that made all wonder where his confidence hailed from.
But when he stretched out his hands, releasing the most dreadful concentration of might they'd ever seen, none no longer wondered where his conceit stemmed from.
As the Omniarch's might unfurled, all Realms quaked, and the very fabric of the Omniverse shivered!
"You're a High Supreme now? So what?!
You have 100,000 Primordials? Hundreds of Supremes? So what?!"
Before my sovereign might, all must collapse!
And on your corpse, I shall remind the world why only I bear the name of Omniarch!"
Regretless bellowed, and the battle for the omniverse officially began!
