Chapter 529: The Legacy (Part-6)

The Eternal Sword rule he understood was mysterious, and the higher it went, the more terrifying and difficult it became.

It had already gone beyond the level of most rules, even a bit more complex than the time rule itself, which is also why he hadn’t improved much for some time, but now he felt brand-new inspiration flooding his mind, and steadily the Eternal Sword rule started to become more mysterious and ethereal.

The power it wielded also started to change a bit, as the mysterious nature of the Black Chaos Sea seemed to appear on his Eternal Sword rule.

The chaotic and deadly power that distorts everything—physical rules, space, time, fate, and even reality itself—seemed to start to appear in his Eternal Sword Rule that embodies everything of the cosmos.

The terrifying power of the Black Chaos Sea slowly started to evolve his sternal sword rule. He didn’t directly break through to a higher layer of rules; instead, it started to transform into a new eternal sword rule that was more terrifying and mysterious.

His aura seemed to merge with the Black Sea surrounding him. The black sea surrounding the island seemed to start to tremble.

And slowly, all of it started to gather around Apollo as a moth attracted towards light.

Normally, anyone who attempted to comprehend the power of the Black Chaos Sea would risk losing control, becoming corrupted, or even having their mind and body completely devoured.

But none of that happened to Apollo. Instead, he felt as though he had encountered an unprecedented opportunity.

The Black Chaos Sea—something synonymous with the unknown, death, and chaos—was behaving like a heavenly blessing in his hands. It was helping him evolve his Eternal Sword Rule.

An hour quickly passed, and the black sea remained the same, but only he knew what terrifying change had taken place within him.

The first was that his Eternal Sword Rule seemed to have finally evolved through its core. Now it contains a hint of the mysteries of Black Chaos Sea within it. Now his sword strikes wouldn’t just hit his enemies; they could now cut them from the very fabric of fate and destiny, severing their existence from the past and future and sending them into true oblivion.

He, although a little bit, might not be enough for him to annihilate the fate of a Supreme directly, but his attacks are now almost unavoidable even for sixth-order supreme, as even they cannot break free from their fate and destiny.

But that wasn’t the end of it, as he was still improving, as his understanding was still rising and had already reached the peak middle stage of the fourth layer of rules.

He also seemed to have absorbed the power of the Black Chaos Sea from this fragment and improved his realm to the peak of second-order transcendent and could break through to the next order at any moment.

The seal on the fragment of the Black Chaos Sea, which was already weakened before, seemed to finally not be able to take at all and broke through completely at that moment.

Crack! Crack!

Boom!

The entire secret realm seemed to tremble, and the spatial barrier around it seemed to shatter directly, bringing it right open to the outside world.

Bang!

The land outside trembled like a major earthquake had taken place, as the massive island seemed to come crashing down and suddenly appear.

Apollo, on the other hand, felt the terrifying power of the Black Chaos Sea, and he tried to break through his small bottleneck and reach the third-order transcendent level.

The terrifying energy and power of the evil spirits filled him without any sign of stopping. His aura continued to rise slowly and steadily as it finally seemed to reach a point where he couldn’t improve if he didn’t break through.

His aura seemed to reach a critical point, and then finally it seemed to cross that last barrier.

Boom!

His aura immediately seemed to have exploded like nothing and continued to increase at an unimaginable rate. His aura improved many times more than before in a matter of seconds, and finally he broke through, reaching the third-order transcendent realm.

At that moment, he finally became a third-order transcendent who had crossed all three steps, just a level below the supreme realm.

Apollo’s aura became terrifying; even though he had just become third-order transcendent, his aura surpassed even fourth-order supremes.

But he didn’t have time to feel good, as the fragment of the Black Chaos Sea seemed to crack, and suddenly the massive body of the Primordial Stone Dragon started to show movement.

The massive body, bigger than mountains, started to move, creating terrifying shock waves like storms that shook the land and even the surrounding areas around the Stone Dragon Village.

And the terrifying aura that seemed to surpass even the Supreme slowly started to rise, shaking heaven and earth.

Apollo, still absorbing the power from the fragment of Black Chaos Sea, felt the terrifying aura rising up close that shook him.

Even though he had seen Sovereign up close, the Primordial Stone Dragon gave him a completely different feeling, as most of the time those Sovereigns were controlling their strength, not like now.

The Primordial Stone Dragon had just awakened.

Its power was completely uncontrolled. And that made its aura far more terrifying. The terrifying aura that seemed to rival that of the heavens came crashing down, but along with it was a very eerie, chaotic aura similar to the Black Chaos Sea.

And finally, he seemed to open his eyes, bigger than ten-story buildings.

Sch! Sch!...

A gust of wind, like some wind blade, hit Apollo as the Primordial Stone Dragon opened its eyes. And for a moment, everything became silent as both sides seemed to quietly watch each other.

Swish! Swish!

A massive storm immediately formed around its nostrils, razing the surrounding island like a natural calamity.

Its enormous head lowered slightly.

Finally, its ancient voice echoed across the heavens.

"Finally... you have come."
