The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1021: Going Into Seclusion

”Big brother, I will go back to Earth and see if I can find myself a Master or maybe a technique,” Jane said to Klaus, hovering over the red planet of Mars

Klaus smiled and nodded, ”Go to the section where the Alien statues are. You will have a higher chance there.”

Jana nodded and left. She had reached the Ascension stage, so she didn’t even need to use the Star Map to bring Klaus to Mars and go back to Earth.

After leaving, Klaus looked at the red planet and sighed in his heart.

”Things are about to get dangerous for me.” Thinking about the upcoming tribulation, should he manage to absorb a part of the True Demon Core, Klaus couldn’t help feeling some form of danger.

”But this is the only way out. My becoming a Chaos stage expert is something that will aid me so much in the upcoming Awakening.

Currently, I can compete with even Domain Stage experts if I put in all my effort. However, I refuse to believe the heavens will play fair.

So I’d better have the means to dominate the Domain stage completely. Even if I can’t fight multiple Domain stage experts at the same time, I should be able to kill one in mere minutes or even seconds.”

If any warrior were to hear what Klaus had just said, they would probably smash his head with a huge hammer for spouting nonsense.

The Domain stage isn’t all about levels. Of course, to some extent, levels play a significant role, but at the Domain stage, what counts the most is one’s domain mastery.

If your domain comprehension is at a higher level, winning against someone even levels ahead of you isn’t a pipe dream.

So for Klaus, who hadn’t even reached that stage where his Innate Domain would integrate into his cultivation base and make it a real domain, to say that he could dominate the Domain stage while only at the Chaos stage...

Many would be pissed if they heard him say that.

However, Klaus wasn’t spouting nonsense. ”I sense the Law of Death inside the True Demon Core. Thankfully, or luckily for me, the Nine-Headed Hydra Dragon Living Armour awakened the Law of Death affinity, and as someone who is the Heir of Death, my connection to the Law of Death is stronger than ever.

Pickle Berry has also advanced the Law of Space greatly. She is nearing the Intermediate stage. This means I now possess a significantly deeper understanding of space law.

She has also begun to comprehend the Time Law. Although she hasn’t made much progress yet, I can sense my understanding of Time is improving. If it comes to it, I will try that one spell and see if I will be able to harness Time to do my bidding.

As for the Law of Gravity, I made so much progress back on the Gravity Planet. If I were to utilize that with my Metal element and Law, I should be able to handle whatever domain the enemy will activate.

As for the Law of Death, if I manage to absorb even a sliver of it from the True Demon Core, my ’Death’s Chosen’ ability will become so much stronger.”

Klaus nodded to himself. With his past life memories helping him, he knew things would become much more lively soon.

”I have to pass this tribulation and show the heavens that they are in danger.”

With that thought in mind, Klaus vanished and reappeared on the planet’s surface.

”Daddy...” Right when Klaus appeared, Fury called out to him, running toward him with a speed Klaus had never seen coming.

He jumped into Klaus’s arms. The next second, Nirvana also jumped into his arms. Then the two new Flame Spirits also joined them.

Unlike Nirvana and Fury, who were dragons, the red-headed teenager was a phoenix. She came about thanks to the Void Incineration Flame that Klaus awakened.

It was one of the strongest forbidden Flames in Klaus’s arsenal.

The fourth came out as a Qilin with blue hair. He looks rather calm compared to the other three. He came about thanks to the Primordial Desolation Flame. He named them Void and Qilin.

Klaus didn’t know if their growth was at its limit now that they had gained intelligence and could make decisions on their own.

However, he didn’t want to pay heed to that at the moment. After all, they aren’t real people but Flame Spirits. They could not live without him.

”How are you four?” Klaus asked, unsure whether being called ’dad’ was something he should be happy about. After all, he was about to use these four to fight against the heavens.

And as someone who hated child labor and abuse, being called dad only to use them as weapons made his mouth taste sour.

”We are fine, Daddy. Fury and I brought these two to come and bathe in the lava pool. They are now stronger like us and can help you fight against the monsters,” Nirvana responded, and Klaus could only nod.

”In that case, when the time comes, I will let you know. Until then, go back to your training.” They nodded and ran off.

Klaus watched them go with a complex expression.

[Don’t think too much about it. They are a part of you, so even if you tell them not to, the moment they sense you are in danger, they will come.

So, from my perspective, it’s better to introduce them to the chaos and teach them when to come and when to stay away.] The senior advised, and Klaus nodded in agreement.

”I will be sure to teach them that, Senior. After all, I have dozens of them just waiting for me to improve my comprehension of the elements for them to take on their human forms and gain intelligence.”

Klaus laughed, already imagining his household when he finally gained Perfect Harmony affinity for all elements.

He chose not to think that far ahead. He waved his hand, and the pagoda appeared, expanding to its original size.

Klaus entered and appeared on the last floor. He waved his hand, and two Time Stones flew into the holds prepared inside the pagoda.

”That will be two years for me.” Klaus looked at the True Demon Core and smiled.

A part of his consciousness entered his soul to see where all his nine soul bodies were seated in a circle, creating a formation. Each was connected to a core.

”Are you guys ready?” Klaus asked, and they all nodded, determined expressions on their faces.

Perhaps, knowing this was something extremely important, Paragon didn’t display his arrogance. Klaus saw this and smiled.

On the outside, he formed a hand seal and activated the Nine Star Paragon Diagram. His eyes immediately turned dark, and he went pale when a strand of the True Demon energy entered his body.

Inside his soul sea, his nine soul bodies also showed the same reaction when the first strand of True Demon energy entered their bodies.

Inside his first core, an ordinary-looking sword hummed and exuded a powerful sword aura that, if a god were to be present, they would take several steps back.

The sword was ordinary-looking, but as the minutes passed, the rust on it started to peel off slowly...

In no time, three months passed, and Klaus hadn’t even absorbed 1% of the energy from the core.
