Chapter 300: Chapter297-Ways to Earn Fate Points
It was as if the system knew what Owen was thinking. Suddenly, the interface trembled, and large, eye-catching blood-red words appeared.
"The host may eliminate Celestial Gods to obtain a large number of fate points!"
Seeing the system's prompt, Owen's eyelid twitched. With his current strength, dealing with beings of such a level was still far from easy, let alone eliminating one.
However, this did offer him some hope.
While taking down a Celestial God-level mage would be extremely difficult right now, with his current rate of growth, it wouldn't take too long before such beings became mere prey for him.
"The host may establish Heaven or rebuild the assembly of gods at The Alps to gain a large number of fate points!"
Reading this prompt from the system, Owen couldn't help but look slightly surprised.
He knew that "Heaven" and "The Alps" were two very special forces.
According to legend, Heaven was the ultimate destination of the planes, close to the realm of creation, where every wish could come true, the most beautiful place in existence.
Meanwhile, The Alps bore some similarities to his current rebellion against the Heavenly Dao. It was an immense force created by a group of god-tier mages who refused to be suppressed by the heavens. They sought to seize the authority of the heavens, with the Supreme God of The Alps as the ruler of the planes.
However, both forces had ultimately been trampled underfoot by the heavens, fading entirely into the dust of history.
Only the beautiful aspirations left behind by these forces still lingered.
If he were to raise the banners of either of these factions, many would undoubtedly rally to his side, but it would also surely attract the attention of the heavens!
"You may also attack the heavens directly, severely injuring the Will of the Heavens, and gain massive fate points!"
At this point, Owen felt more and more like the leader of a rebellion.
"Alternatively, you can remain behind the scenes, manipulating the conflicts of all beings!"
After reading through all the methods provided by the system to gain fate points, Owen realized he was heading further down the path of rebellion.
And thinking of rebellion, Owen couldn't help but glance at Leslie, who had just finished dressing.
Perhaps because they had only recently finished their physical exertion, Leslie's cheeks were flushed, her skin glowing with a rosy tint, like a nourished, blooming rose, making her even more alluring.
Despite Owen's aching waist and back, he couldn't help but feel parched.
Summoning the last of his strength, he once again fervently ravished the beauty in his arms until she was thoroughly spent.
Only then did he finally stop, lying on the bed and gently stroking Leslie's soft hair.
"The Millennial Cataclysm is approaching. Perhaps we should begin formulating our plans for the future," Owen said.
Leslie's gem-like eyes sparkled slightly.
Every time she had teamed up with Owen, they had caused major upheaval.
The first time they worked together, they looted the Azure Kingdom's royal treasury completely.
Later, they manipulated the royal family of Azure, playing them like puppets until they ultimately brought about the kingdom's collapse!
Thinking back on it now, Leslie felt her heart surge with excitement.
...
At this moment, Owen snapped out of his recollection and looked at the stunned Lord of Stars and War Goddess, speaking slowly:
"I've made some breakthroughs in my cultivation over these past few days. Now, I've set foot on new path, and the mana within me has undergone a complete transformation."
Owen explained briefly.
Now that he possessed the Primordial Chaos Body, it was as if he had become a primordial universe, with ancient chaotic energy flowing through his meridians, capable of creating anything—or destroying everything.
All of his mana had been devoured and transformed.
Though he was still a sage-tier mage, his combat power had undergone a qualitative leap compared to half a month ago!
In terms of sheer combat strength, he was now on par with a God Emperor!
And if he used his trump cards, he could even take on an Archgod!
In this plane, he now finally had the power to protect himself.
The Lord of Stars and War Goddess could no longer make sense of the changes in Owen's aura.
It felt as though he had become a bottomless abyss, one that swallowed their probing senses entirely as soon as they approached.
Clearly, Owen's power had become even more profound and immeasurable!
In fact, compared to Leslie, Owen's transformation was even more complete.
But overall, this was good news. With their combined increase in strength, they would have a better chance of facing the impending Millennial Cataclysm with more confidence.
As their expressions changed, Owen and Leslie also quickly noticed the transformation in Seraphina, who had shifted into a humanoid form.
"Seraphina?!"
Seeing the half-serpent girl cradled in Madelyn's arms, both Owen and Leslie lit up with joy and rushed to her side.
"Master!"
Seeing Owen, Seraphina instantly sprang out of Madelyn's embrace and flung herself into Owen's arms, rubbing her little head against his chest as she spoke in her childish voice.
Owen was utterly charmed by her display of affection.
Standing beside him, Leslie, the three of them looked like a harmonious little family.
After playing with Seraphina for a while, Owen noticed that the Lord of Stars and the War Goddess seemed to have made a decision.
The War Goddess stepped forward and spoke with serious solemnity:
"Mr. Owen, Miss Leslie, with the end of this era approaching, we are nearing the most critical time. This time, we would like to invite both of you to witness the return of the many ancient
gods!"
Owen and Leslie's expressions immediately became much more serious.
A millennium marked the end of an era, and the heavens sought to extinguish the world!
Any forces or deities that did not submit would be wiped from existence, reduced to nothing more than the dust of history.
Despite all their efforts, the War Goddess, Lord of Stars, and their predecessors had all
ultimately failed!
This was truly a matter of life and death.
After Owen and Leslie quickly nodded in agreement, the Lord of Stars gazed up at the sky, his
expression complicated.
"The Star Realm has been closed for a long time. It's time to reopen it and summon them to
return."
If they failed in their rebellion against the heavens this time, both the Lord of Stars and the War Goddess would fall for good.
This was because their Spatiotemporal Anchors would be obliterated along with the destruction of the world, vanishing completely!
Seeing the gravity of the situation, Owen understood what was on their minds.
Previous battles had been minor skirmishes, and they could afford to lose. If they did, they
could simply retreat to their Spatiotemporal Anchors and try again.
But this time, failure was not an option!
"You two are the brightest stars of this era and our greatest hope. I'm sure they will be
thrilled to meet you," said the War Goddess with a smile, her expression far more relaxed than the Lord of Stars, as if accepting the situation with a carefree attitude.
Win or lose, they would give it their all, and that was enough. They would do right by themselves, their predecessors, and those who came after them!
"Them?"
Owen glanced at the Lord of Stars and the War Goddess, his nervous eyes revealing both anticipation and excitement.
Resisting the heavens and defying fate-this was the stuff of legend, a story for the ages! And those whom the Lord of Stars would summon were no doubt legendary figures
themselves!
"Yes, they were our closest comrades-in-arms. No matter the outcome, I'm glad we found you, our torchbearers. If we fail, you can continue the fight!"
The War Goddess was delighted. This would be their final battle.
She spoke casually, but Owen could hear the tragic weight behind her words.
He knew a bit about the lore behind the Lord of Stars and War Goddess. Though they seemed immortal, they actually depended on their Spatiotemporal Anchors for survival.
As long as their anchors existed, even if they were killed, they could return to their anchor points, like saving a game.
But now, with the revival of the heavens and the impending destruction of the world, all who defied the heavens would be reduced to ashes, anchors and all!
Not long after, under the guidance of the Lord of Stars, Owen, Leslie, Madelyn, Rachel,
Seraphina, and the other top prodigies of the era were led into a unique starry realm.
The starry realm was ancient, deep, and seemingly endless, as if not part of their own plane. It carried a mysterious and tragic air.
"This is the Star Realm, our final stronghold, and the place where we once fought bloodyn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
battles in the skies," said the Lord of Stars and the War Goddess as they entered, their eyes filled with a sense of nostalgia.
It was as if they were returning home after a long journey, finally back at a safe harbor. Following them closely, Owen curiously observed the starry realm.
The outer edge of the realm resembled a frozen scene, devoid of any signs of life or movement. The stars there emitted only faint, cold light, silent and unchanging. But as they ventured deeper, Owen felt a surge of ancient and boundless energy wash over
him.
