The Inheritance Of The Supreme Immortals

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Sagehood

Sam looked at the guardians of the princesses from the four kingdoms and waved his hand, rolling his eyes.

"Get up, would you? I'm getting tired of people kneeling before me after realizing who I am," Sam said, and they rose, lowering their heads as if afraid to look him in the eyes.

He nodded to his wives, indicating they could proceed.

These so-called guardians were people who worked under the royal families of each kingdom. Their job was to protect their princesses from the shadows.

That's why when the princesses—Aurora, Nisha, Ruby, Rin, and Mina—abruptly flew away to see Sam as soon as they awakened their memories of their past lives, the guardians followed them.

They were able to get a good look at the man who had suddenly become the literal ruler of an entire continent.

And now he had also become the progenitor of Golden Crows, Night Ravens, Phoenixes, Divine Swans, and Star Peacocks, which was probably the reason they were kneeling down right now.

Ruby Von Ignacia looked at her guardians. "You guys can go home. As you can see, my husband is enough to protect me even from other universes. You understand. Oh, and tell my lousy-ass mother she can go to hell."

Nisha and Aurora glanced at each other expressionlessly, seeing their fellow wife acting like a brat.

"You guys can go back. We'll be back soon with my darling," Nisha said to her guardians.

"Same goes for you too. By the way, you can tell my parents about it. My darling has no problem with it. Don't forget to mention he is the progenitor of all races in this world," Aurora added.

They told their guardians to return to their kingdoms and stop being such a pain in the ass, and to stop stalking them everywhere they went.

"You guys don't have to be too afraid. You can tell about my existence to the royal families. I'll be visiting them soon anyway."

"I will do as you say, Your Majesties," the guardians replied before leaving.

Just as the guardians left, another figure appeared: Mina Megumi, the Divine Swan.

"Phew, my guardians were a pain in the ass. They were so persistent. They wouldn't leave unless I threatened them with our husband, whom they are scared of shitlessly," Mina said.

"Why are there no people here? I heard a lot of cultivators have stationed here to control the monolith that seems to explode any minute now," Mia said, looking at the monolith in the distance.

The entire area seemed to be corroded because of the corruption energy.

"I ordered them to go back."

"This place looks awful," Mina said. "What are you going to do? You're not thinking of just blowing up the entire thing, are you?"

"Or breaking the space so that the corruption would be sucked into a waste space, darling. I remember you doing something similar in our past life when you blew up those invaders," Aurora said, touching her chin with a finger.

"I have a couple of solutions," Sam said, turning his eyes back to the Temple of Apollo.

"First, we need to get rid of these corrupted beasts. It will stop them from being fed to the monolith."

"Do we have to fight them?" Rin asked, her expression conveying exhaustion.

"Hehe, don't worry. I won't make you work unnecessarily. I have another plan," Sam smiled, hinting at a secret strategy.

"Even though these beasts have been corrupted, they still possess abundant spiritual energy. I can probably use them for my growth."

"I'll be back in a minute."

With that, he disappeared and appeared near the Temple of Apollo, instantly surrounded by thousands of corrupted beasts.

His hair turned dark black, and his eyes became menacingly red, as if tainted with the blood of a thousand men.

This was his progenitor vampire base form.

"My innate ability, the Devour, has perfect synchronization with the ability of the Vampire Progenitor, which is to assimilate the powers and physical abilities of other beings into his own."

As he pondered his abilities, totally ignoring the corrupted beasts with their ugly, black blood dripping all over their bodies, one of the beasts lunged at him, bearing its large fangs as if to tear him into pieces.

A pair of red eyes turned their nightmarish gaze toward it. "Let me test my Vampire Progenitor abilities on you."

Sam raised his hand and pointed it at the corrupted beast.

As if responding to the call of the Vampire Progenitor, the corrupted beast stopped in its tracks.

It looked as if it suddenly turned into stone, but that wasn't the case.

If one looked closely, they would see black blood beginning to crack out of its body. Its face began to swell, followed by the swelling of its whole body.

Like a water balloon being punctured, its body swelled to the limit and exploded.

However, the corrupted black blood didn't splash; instead, it converged in the air, making the other corrupted beasts hiss at him in fear.

"Corrupted... I don't want that," he then used his other hand to make a separating motion.

As if responding to his action, red normal blood separated from the corrupted black blood.

"Absorb," the filtered blood transformed into a handball-shaped sphere and approached the vampire progenitor, absorbing into his hand.

"Interesting. Absorbing the blood of a wolf-like beast gives me nothing because its power as a beast is not suitable for a humanoid being like me," he mused.

He then looked at the remaining pieces of its body scattered in the vicinity.

"It didn't absorb its physical body, like my devouring ability... I guess my innate ability is superior."

He glanced at the tens of thousands of beasts remaining, seeing an infinite supply of all kinds of delicacies, and smiled softly. "You can become resources for my inevitable rise in power."

Activating his innate ability, the devour, a huge spiraling energy seemed to be made out of blood.

The entire area seemed to experience a vibration, as if the clouds scattered away from the place, afraid of what was to come.

It was as if the gates of hell had descended into the land of the living.

He instantly began pulling the tens of thousands of beasts into it before disappearing into the palm of the vampire progenitor, leaving behind the corrupted blood that seemed to be filtered out from their bodies.

Sam's figure elevated from the ground as the spiritual energy he absorbed from the beasts began to raise his cultivation level.

<Your cultivation has increased>

<You have reached the Middle-Stage Battle Monarch realm>

<Your cultivation has increased>

<You have reached the Upper-Stage Battle Monarch realm>

<Your cultivation has increased>

<You have reached the Peak-Stage Battle Monarch realm>

<Your cultivation has increased>

<You have reached the Supreme Battle Monarch realm>

As his cultivation reached the peak of the Battle Monarch realm, streaks of light flashed out from his sea of consciousness, transforming into eleven figures, each representing one of the eleven elemental colors, along with a golden-colored figure.

Then, crowns appeared above each of these figures, symbolizing his attainment of the peak stage of the Battle Monarch realm cultivation.

<Congratulations, Master. Your cultivation is reaching the threshold of immortality>

<Your cultivation has increased significantly>

<Your mortality is leaving your spirituality>

<You have shed your mortality and reached Sagehood. You have taken a big step towards invincibility>

Above his head, an illusionary image of a huge lotus appeared. It was still incomplete and didn't have any Dao patterns.

A few kilometers away from the corrupted area, the girls watched Sam with curiosity.

"Whoa, is that the ability he gained when he reincarnated? It looks cool," Nisha commented, her eyes shining.

"Yeah, it is amazing, isn't it?"

"To be honest, I don't know why he would want that ability. He already has a connection with the universal source; if he wants, he could become invincible easily," Aurora questioned.

"Have you even listened? Didn't he mention this ability will help us in the upcoming fight against the invaders?"

"Don't forget, he might be invincible in this universe, but it won't be the same when it's against invaders from the other universe, and there are also the conquerors who are the biggest threats of them all," Mina reminded them, recalling the reason why they decided to reincarnate.

Sam used his connection with the universal source and, with the help of his mother, the Universal Tree, which hurt her badly, he was able to gain this universal-breaking ability by reincarnation.

As for his wives, they were his eternal companions; they could never live a life where he was not in it, so they decided to reincarnate with him.

It was all because of love in the end.

"I don't care; my husband is super cool," Ruby said, her eyes sparkling for a different reason. "And he even reached Sagehood."

Ignoring Ruby, who was clearly indulging in some explicit fantasies with Sam in her imagination, the girls continued their discussion.

"Anyway, do you guys remember what's the first phase of his plan? I kind of forgot," Aurora asked, scratching her head.

"I don't know, something about launching an entity called a system? It supposedly gives him eyes all over the cultivation world and allows him to monitor every being with a snap of his fingers," Mina said, deep in thought.
