Chapter 279: Sovereign Awakened

His body, his mind, his very soul dissolved into the chaotic void—no longer separate, no longer resisting.

For the first time, he ceased to exist as an individual. He forgot the time and was in a trance for two days, not caring about anything. He was in the deep sea of vast, infinite space rules, slowly understanding and discovering brand new things.

He saw dimensions folding upon themselves, birthing and collapsing in endless cycles.

He felt space breathing, expanding and contracting like a living entity.

He sensed invisible threads, unseen by most, connecting all dimensions and existence together.

"So, this is what lies beyond the Law of Space."

Slowly, he grasped what separated Space Law from Space Rule.

Apollo’s very being trembled.

He could feel it—the final step.

99.9%.

Just a sliver away from crossing into the realm of Space Rule, a power that even ancient True Gods failed to comprehend.

Then—he saw it.

A single thread of absolute space, suspended beyond his reach. Unlike anything else in existence, it was not part of the Infinite Void, nor bound by any dimensions.

It was pure space itself. The origin. The first and final truth.

And Apollo understood—

This was the essence of the true Space Rule.

The final threshold.

His soul trembled, and his golden eyes flickered open.

"One step more."

Boom

The final invisible wall shattered, and the space law reached one hundred percent and started its transformation from Space law to Space rule.

Countless knowledge and different understandings of space started to fill his mind with a storm. His aura also surged, becoming stronger and more mysterious, like he was in an entirely different space.

The void trembled. The very concept of space warped as Apollo broke through. He seemed to absorb mysterious space power through the void with every second as his aura continued to climb up.

The Infinite Void World Stone trembled, as if in reverence. The Senior Orb fell silent, witnessing an event that should have been impossible.

A True God would have spent eons attempting to reach this point, yet Apollo had stepped into the domain of the Space Rule in mere days. Even with the infinite void world’s stone’s help, it was too fast.

He originally thought it would take a year or two, considering Apollo should be extremely talented, but it seems he underestimated the talented person who isn’t bound by fate. As Apollo didn’t seem to lose or stop in any layer, he understood everything with the fastest speed and broke through like it was nothing.

"A being unbound by fate... is this the reason?" The Senior Orb mused, watching the young man whose mere presence now distorted space itself.

Apollo did not hesitate. He did not struggle. He simply understood.

Each layer of the Infinite Void World Stone had been a trial, an ordeal meant to refine understanding over time—years, decades, centuries—but Apollo moved as if those barriers were mere stepping stones beneath his feet.

His aura finally stabilized as he opened his feelings; the change took place after he understood the space rule.

The moment he understood space rules, not only did his understanding of space reach unprecedented heights, but he also seemed to break through in divine body, soul, and spirit at the same time, reaching the fifth turn of it, respectively.

The massive rewards he received from his transformation of law from rule were immense as he absorbed large amounts of power through the void.

Now in just three days, his strength increased hundreds of times. Maybe he is a bit weaker than true gods in body or spirit, but with understanding rules—not a simple elemental rule but a supreme space rule—he was sure to defeat early or even middle-stage true gods.

But with this massive breakthrough, he didn’t immediately come out of the infinite void world stone but continued to understand more layers as he didn’t have much time from the dangers that were coming this way.

Outside in the Black Flame Sovereign realm, everyone was busy, and massive anxiety covered the entire realm as they tried to do everything quickly to awaken the great sovereign.

Inside the Black Flame Sovereign Realm, a suffocating tension gripped the air. Shadows flickered across the colossal obsidian spires that loomed over the land.

Countless elders, priests, and warriors worked tirelessly in the heart of the sovereign’s domain. Ancient formations shimmered with power, vast reservoirs of divine energy being drained to rouse their sleeping ruler before it was too late.

Time passed, and quickly two weeks passed, and everything was ready. Countless people worked nonstop for these two weeks to finally prepare everything that needed to awaken their Sovereign from the slumber.

Apollo also stopped understanding space rules and came out to watch the grand event that was going to happen and meet the person on whom his entire mission depended.

The air in the Black Flame Sovereign Realm crackled with anticipation. The sky above the grand altar, once a swirling abyss of black fire, now pulsed with an eerie crimson glow—a sign that the preparations were complete.

Apollo gazed calmly yet sharply as he observed the grand ritual unfold before him.

A towering obsidian monolith, carved with countless divine inscriptions, stood at the centre of the altar right in the middle of the city. Rivers of molten energy coursed through the engraved patterns, pulsating in sync with the beating heart of the realm itself.

He could feel it—the sheer weight of divine authority about to awaken.

Begin!

The voice of three great flame lords echoed throughout the realm, and the awakening ceremony began.

The moment their voice reverberated, thousands of runic formation experts activated various formations all across the realm. Not only the Emberheart city but also the various and different formations scattered around the realm seem to be activated, changing the entire Black Flame Sovereign realm.

Across the vast realm, thousands of runic masters channelled their essence into intricate sigils, activating formations hidden in every volcanic peak, scorched plain, and burning river.

The sky cracked open, revealing an endless vortex of dark flames and divine power, spiralling toward the monolith like a cosmic whirlpool.

Apollo stood at the edge of the grand ceremony, his golden eyes gleaming with intrigue. He could feel it—the awakening of something far beyond mortal comprehension.

Massive earthquakes with world-destroying tremors appeared with the aura of flames, filling fire rules and stirring the world.

"What is happening?"

"Why is the entire world trembling? What are the great leaders and elders doing?" Various people in the entire realm felt the change and couldn’t help but ask. As not many people know what was truly happening here.

Across the vast realm, countless citizens, warriors, and even lower-ranked flame life forms as strong as void gods felt their knees buckle under the suffocating pressure. Some collapsed outright, their bodies instinctively bowing in reverence to the sheer force that had begun to stir.

The very layer of space of the Black Flame Sovereign Realm quaked under the pressure of an awakening ancient power.

Molten rivers surged violently.

Sky-splitting fissures tore through the heavens.

Blazing storms of fire and destruction danced in the skies.

The very laws of fire and destruction seemed to twist and reform themselves, responding to the will of something unfathomably ancient.

Yet, amidst the chaos, Apollo remained still.

His blue eyes gleamed, sharp as blades, as he observed the phenomenon unfolding before him.

He wasn’t afraid.

No—he was anticipating it.

The true awakening of the Black Flame Sovereign.

BOOM!

A world-ending explosion erupted from the heart of the Flame Palace, shaking the entire Black Flame Sovereign Realm to its core.

For a single terrifying moment, all living beings felt a primal, absolute fear—

The end had come.

An all-consuming inferno surged outward, ready to incinerate everything in its path.

But then—

Hum!

The vast runic formations covering the realm activated in full force, intertwining like an unbreakable web. Ancient divine inscriptions pulsed with golden and crimson light, stopping the devastating flames just before they could consume the land.

The suffocating pressure lifted, though the flames still crackled ominously in the air.

Then, a voice full of reverence and emotion echoed across the realm—

"Father!"

The three Great Flame Lords—the most powerful rulers beneath the Sovereign himself—knelt toward the palace, their voices trembling with devotion.

All eyes turned toward the Flame Palace, its obsidian walls glowing brighter than a dying star.

And within its depths...

Something had finally awakened.

A primal, ancient, and unseen power awakened between the heavens and earth that even the fire rule in the nearby dimension seems to tremble with excitement.

Szzz

The moment the aura appeared, every life form in the Black Flame Sovereign realm from the depth of their soul and blood felt deep reverence and fell to their knees even without knowing who or what had finally awakened.

Among the countless beings present, only one figure remained standing—Apollo. For some reason, he felt nothing, unaffected by the chaos around him. Beside him, the floating Orb Senior also seemed indifferent, as if the events unfolding ahead were of no concern.
