Chapter 1005: Gaining Ownership



Chapter 1005: Gaining Ownership

[58 Days Before the Awakening]

Klaus didn’t recognize the lady even after she turned and faced him. However, he could tell there was something special about her that made his heart beat excitedly.

It felt like he had missed her so much, yet he couldn’t bring himself to give in to that feeling.

The woman was extremely beautiful. Same as her hair, her eyes were also golden. She had perfect bone structure, and while it wasn’t exactly a competition, Klaus couldn’t help comparing her to his wives.

In the end, he could only conclude that this woman was several times more beautiful than they were.

It wasn’t just her beauty, there was something else about her that made Klaus feel like he could rely on her in these difficult times.

Perhaps it was her aura, but Klaus just couldn’t bring himself to suspect that lady of any malicious intent toward him.

“Not bad, I can see you have already awakened quite a few of your bloodlines,” the lady said, waving her hand. In an instant, Klaus and she were seated, still on the island but underneath a small structure.

“I have indeed awakened four bloodlines. Of course, not all four are a complete awakening.”

The lady shook her head and smiled.”None of them is a complete awakening, Paragon. You have barely scratched the surface.” Her eyes shine brighter as if she had realised something hidden.

“Or do you think a Paragon would have such a weak bloodline. The one running through is not even a quarter of what your bloodline can do.”

Klaus didn’t seem surprised to hear that. He already had his suspicions.

When Efad used the Star Monarch bloodline, it was a stark contrast to his previous use of it. This led him to conclude that he had barely scratched the surface of true bloodline awakening.

Klaus sighed and looked around. “I don’t suppose this is the place my friends and I were supposed to appear at.”

“Before we discuss that, you can call me Eleven. I can’t tell you who I am because doing so will end badly for you.

As to your question, the answer is yes. This place is indeed not the final destination. Where we are now is a mere illusion world I created.

However, this whole place was once the cultivation cave of a half-step primordial.

I won’t explain what a half-step primordial is, for you already have a vague idea. However, know that after this half-step primordial died, you, with my help, claimed this place and refined it.” A smile appeared on the lady’s face.

“This is one of the reasons why I like you, Paragon. Among the many people I met in this vast multiverse, you were the only one who piqued my interest.” A pondering expression appeared on her face.

“Well, that Chaos Dragon has some allure to him, but he is crazy. So, you, Paragon, are the one I choose and would forever choose. However, you are still unworthy to meet the true me.

That said, there are many valuable things here that you need and will depend on for years to come, even after you have reached the Celestial stage.

So cherish it.

Know that following your command, which I hate you for, considering I am the big sister and the one to be issuing these commands, I followed it and divided this cultivation cave into nine levels like you wanted.” The lady looked at Klaus, and the Paragon also stared at her.

“What is your obsession with the number nine anyway? I know you have nine of these stars and even nine soul bodies, but what is your deal? Shouldn’t you have picked a beautiful number like six or even seven?”

Klaus smiled. “You wouldn’t understand, Senior Eleven.”

The lady just smirked and chose not to pursue the fact that Klaus was all about the number nine.

“Anyways, I have sealed eight levels, and now, you can only have access to the first level. Your friends and beautiful wives will be granted access after you gain ownership of the place.

But be warned, this place cannot be discovered by those idiots calling themselves Heaven’s Guardians or whatever other names they call themselves.

When I met you, the two things that made me like you were your brain and your determination. You are brilliant, so I know you will find a way to hide this place.

The moment I give you ownership, I will be gone, but I’ll still be around, so don’t worry too much about them taking it from you.

What I am worried about here is more about them destroying your world, which they have already started planning for.”

Klaus’s eyes shone. “I will be sure to hide this place well.”

“I know you will. After all, you are the Paragon of the Nine Stars. Though your obsession with the number nine is just too concerning, I know you will be fine. That said, you are merely here for these three.”

The lady extended her slender hand, and a key appeared in it.

“This is the Inheritance Key. Go to the Demon Emperor’s tomb and use it to unlock it. There are five inheritances there. Select five capable warriors whom you can absolutely trust. When I say trust, they should be willing to die for you, even if they dont have your blood in them.

Let them inherit the five inheritances.”

She extended her hand, and another key appeared. “This will take you to the tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Just like with the first, select three people who don’t have dragon bloodline in them and let them inherit them.”

The third key appeared. “This one is meant for the one who wields the Sword of Slaughter.”

Klaus received the third key and knew it was meant for Kilian. He was the one with the Sword of Slaughter.

“This last key is for you. But before I give it to you, I would like to hear your answer on something.”

Klaus nodded.

“How willing are you to defy the heavens?” The question was simply framed, but it contained so much meaning that if ordinary cultivators were to hear it, they would be hit by a karmic backlash.

However, Klaus sat there with a calm expression. Memories of all the times he lost friends and loved ones to the heavens appeared in his mind, causing his eyes to turn cold. In an instant, the space around him started freezing.

The lady smiled, nodding at the show of hatred. Klaus didn’t even have to speak for her to know what was running through his head.

“Very well, Paragon. I know you have already guessed why I asked this, but to lighten you up, the 4th unofficial key will lead you to something that will allow you to break through to the Chaos stage.

However, it will be a battle of defiance, one that will shake your very foundation, for the heavens wouldn’t easily let you become even stronger than you are when the awakening is just around the corner.

So as to whether you want to or not, that decision will be yours to make. That said, there is a lot here, and once you become an owner, you will know their uses.”

Klaus pondered on a couple of things and nodded. “I am ready to become the owner when you are.”

“Remember, the heavens don’t play fair, and considering this is against you, they will play the dirtiest game. So be prepared. Lastly, pay more attention to your wives, they hold the key to your success.”

She flicked her hand, and a star mark appeared, merging with Klaus’s forehead. The moment the star mark merged with him, Klaus felt a connection form between him and something incredibly powerful.

“Until the next one, Paragon. For now, good luck, and I look forward to seeing you in the universe soon.” The lady vanished, and Klaus also did. He appeared before a statue of a woman holding a bow and arrow.
