[V: "Visionary"]

Jean just woke up and yawned, he stood up and stretched his body, then he reduced a beast that jumped at him in ashes… Wait what?

Jean was fully woken up and looked around, seeing that he was surrounded from beasts again, he sighed and took the Overlord's Colossal Sword, before swinging it around as if it was a light sword, in some moments, he killed all of them.

Current killcount: 99'995

After being fully woken up and eliminated the surrounding beasts, he started to think about what he should do now…

Jean: Oh right! The Sky Profound Universal Pellet.

Jean used his imagination to replicate the feeling, shape, looks of the pellet, and a scarlet pellet appeared on his hands…

*Nom*

A surge of power flooded in his entire body, as if his body was being stabbed from 1000 swords, he gritted his teeth and kneeled in the ground, forcefully enduring the pain, this wasn't for the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, he knew that he was strong enough, but this was for his so-called absolute power.

[4 days later]

This was the time it took for his body to successfully refine the pellet, and his body stood up from the ground. He took deep breaths and looked at his watch.

[9:56]

[28/2/1996]

[Y: "Yourself" (Type 2)]

Jean: Heh, 4 days… Well…

*Growl*

Jean turned around and saw 4 beasts glaring at him. Jean just swung his arm and an attack similar to the one he developed against the Stone Dragon General came out in the shape of the phoenix, Jean called it Phoenix Break, just because why not?

4 phoenixes came out and exploded when they reached the beasts, raising his kill count to 99'999.

Jean: Done!

At this time, the scene before Jean's eyes suddenly distorted. The dead wasteland in front of his eyes disappeared within the fuzziness, and became a field of blackness. The sounds near his ears had also completely faded away, and became tranquil.

Above this dark world, a pair of gigantic azure blue eyes slowly opened.

Primordial Azure Dragon: As a lowly human… No, that sort of thing you did can't be considered something a normal human could do… Young warrior, you have yet again shocked me greatly, you are truly extraordinary.

Your performance within the trial realm has made me completely incapable of believing that you are a mere seventeen year old youngster.

Jean: Things happen, at least I gained much from being here… How much time is needed for the third trial? I need to be back before 1 month passes.

Primordial Azure Dragon: 1 month? Haha, forget about the trial. Because you have already passed the third stage of the trial.

Jean's eyes widened in surprise and asked.

Jean: Already passed?

Primordial Azure Dragon: You have went through the Phoenix Trial, so if I'm guessing correctly, one of the stages within the Phoenix Trial is most certainly a test of character. We would never let our bloodline be passed onto a human of inferior morals.

And the last stage of this trial, just happens to be a trial of character. I could sense your need of power from a mile away, greed for strength to be superior to anyone else, with your abilities, that is possible for you.

The Phoenix would not give its bloodline to someone like you, unless they knew about their limits, even if you didn't hesitate to destroy the once-peaceful paradise for monsters, you did it because you wanted power for you and everyone near you to be safe, not for domination.

Thus, there was no need to carry out the third stage of the trial, for you have already passed.

Congratulations young warrior, you have become this land's sole person who has passed the Dragon God Trial.

Jean: Finally!

Primordial Azure Dragon: Challenger who have passed the Dragon God Trial could obtain three drops of the Dragon God's blood. And three drops of Dragon God blood you will have. I will give you 3 days to completely fuse with the 3 bloods of Dragon God blood, after those 3 days, we need to talk about something…

Jean raised an eyebrow, but he nodded. Then a speck of azure blue light suddenly came flying from the darkness, and accurately touched the spot between Jean's eyebrows. Afterwards, it directly entered the space between his brows, and so the fusion began.

Meanwhile, outside the pitch-black world, in the dim mountain cave where Jean encountered the Primordial Azure Dragon, Jasmine slowly revealed her figure. Raising her pair of cold eyes, she stared at the azure blue eyes in the sky.

Jasmine: You're actually able to find out about this princess' existence!

Primordial Azure Dragon: How can I not recognize the power of the twelve Star Gods? You, as one of the twelve Star Gods, actually appeared in this world, and you're even harboring the Absolute God Slaying Poison. It seems something big must have happened in the Star God Realm.

Jasmine: Hmph! You're nothing but a residual soul that will disappear in a few years. Your role, is to watch over and conduct the trials and bestowals of your blood inheritance. As for the things happening in our Star God Realm, you do not need to be concerned about them.

Primordial Azure Dragon: In the World of Gods back then, many Gods were still extremely fearful of the Absolute God Slaying Poison. I did not expect that, even until now, within this realm, this frightening god-killing poison still exists.

It seems, some individuals must have found the inheritance left by that 'Demon'. And in this realm, the only thing capable of cleansing this poison, is the Sky Poison Pearl. Your body currently resides with the Sky Poison Pearl, and as long as you do not use your profound energy, within three years, the poison will be cleansed...

However, you're harboring a very deep hatred and killing intent within your soul.

Even though the power restriction brought about by the Absolute God Slaying Poison, and the existence of this youth which you might have developed some form of feelings for, have completely suppressed these deep hatred and killing intent of yours, if you manage to fully cleanse your body from the poison one day, and leave this youth...

It's hard to imagine, just how many lives will be taken by your hands.

Jasmine: People that this princess wish to kill, are people who deserve to die! These people who ought to die are are spreaded throughout nine star realms, and they total to 26 billion people! As long as this princess is still alive, there will come a day, when all of them, will die!

Primordial Azure Dragon: …*Sigh* You once possessed the purest and kindest of souls, but nonetheless, the deep hatred and killing intent that were born and grew within this purity, were also extremely pure. I can only hope that there will be someone who will save you from within this deep hatred and killing intent...

I am only but a residual soul, which indeed do not have to know too many things that I do not need to know. But the reason why I wish to converse with you, is to find out... whether that sword, has already been found.

Jasmine seemed to be really clear what was he referring to and coldly laughed.

Jasmine: Many gods have died because of that sword. Even though you're only a wisp of a residual soul, you actually still have deep memories of that sword. This princess, however, can tell you this. Although countless people have risked their lives to find that sword, it has yet to be found by anyone, but the problem will be if that will be found…

If it's in the wrong hands, it will cause a disaster, even if it goes on the right hands… If I really want for someone to find the sword, then it's Jean… He will rather absorb it than use it…

Primordial Azure Dragon: ...I see… The reason why I asked about that sword, is not because of the deep memories I have for it. Rather, residing within that sword, is a spirit that's extremely important to me

[3 days later]

After 3 days of agonizing, horrifying, brutal pain, Jean was able to fuse with the 3 drops of Dragon Blood, not only that, but his power broke through the Earth Profound Realm and reached the 1st Sky Profound Realm… In less than 2 years, he climbed from the 0th Elementary Profound Realm to this… Incredible, right?

[14:23]

[2/3/1996]

[A: "Antithesis"]

However, now he needed to solidify a bit his foundations, and for that, he needed 2 days, he still climbed through 5 entire realms in less than a week… Then he checked his Profound Veins, and was actually surprised with the results.

The world within his profound veins had been expanded by several times, and an unbelievably strong force was surging through every drop of blood and every cell within his body.

At the same time, he felt that the level of tyranny of his meridians, profound veins, bones, and skin, had long surpassed before, and these changes did not come from the Great Way of the Buddha. They evidently came from the Dragon God's bloodline!

The Primordial Azure Dragon's power did not possess an 'element', its physical body and strength, could be described with one word, "tyrannical".

With the infusing of the Dragon God's bloodline, it had undoubtedly changed Jean's physical body and strength, causing them to become incomparably tyrannical. At the very least, they had long surpassed the realms of a mere human.

Now he was even confident to go against a 1st Tyrant Profound Realm.

Jean raised his head and said with a smile.

Jean: Primordial Azure Dragon, I finished stabilizing my body, I am waiting for what you wanted to talk about before!

The azure eyes opened in the skies above, accompanied by the Primordial Azure Dragon's voice.

Primordial Azure Dragon: I would like you to agree to a request of mine.

The word 'request', when spoken, carried a slight tremble to it. As the Primordial Azure Dragon, the leader of the countless divine beasts of the Divine Realm, how often had it ever 'requested' anything from others?

A request from the Primordial Azure Dragon…this was something that a normal person couldn't even fathom.

Jean: Speak. I will definitely try to do everything I can.

Primordial Azure Dragon: It is enough for you to answer me in this manner. My request is indeed far too difficult for you right now.

You might spend your entire life without being able to accomplish this request, but the strength in your body, your soul, and your mysterious 30 powers, makes it so that I can't keep myself from feeling hopeful… I hope that you, sometime in your life, will be able to find a sword.

Jean: A… Sword? What sort of sword?

Primordial Azure Dragon: Have you heard of the place known as the 'Realm of the Gods'?

Jean: No…

Primordial Azure Dragon: The Realm of the Gods is also known as the Divine Realm. In the Primordial Era, the Gods dwelled there. That is an incomparably enormous plane, ten thousand times greater than the Profound Sky Continent you currently reside in.

Afterwards, the Gods fell, but the Divine Realm didn't grow empty because of this. It became filled with countless humans, who took over this world that was formerly of the Gods and who searched for and fought over all the things which the Gods left behind…

Relics, weapons, spiritual medicines, lineages, profound arts, and more. Afterwards, by relying on the divine relics that they found, they erected increasingly large and powerful clans, forces, lands, and even miniature worlds.

The only thing that Jean showed was a smile, the final target was increasing in mysteriousness…

Primordial Azure Dragon: That place also has the lineage that I left behind. I learned these things only through the remnant spirits that remain in that place. The current Divine Realm is no longer a world of the True Gods; rather, it has been chopped up into many spheres of power by the countless inheritors of the lineages of the Gods.

It has become the plane with the highest levels of power in this era. In addition, the Divine Realm is incomparably large. Everyone continues to imagine that there must be more divine relics that have yet to be discovered, and so every day, many people will go to search for them…and in particular, they are searching for a sword.

That sword has already disappeared countless years ago. Ever since the Gods were annihilated, not even a hint of it has appeared. However, its power and might made it so that people are unable to give up the search for it. That sword's name is the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword.

You possess one of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, the Sky Poison Pearl. Naturally, you should understand what it means to be in possession of one of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, not only that, you possess the power to be peerless...

As for that Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword, it is ranked as number one amongst the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures! According to legend, its power is enough to annihilate everything. It entirely lives up to its title of being the number one supreme treasure.

Even if it falls into the hands of a mortal, that mortal will still be able to easily slaughter True Gods and smite the Heavens!
