Chapter 1927 Ruler of the Floating Island (5)
Chapter 1927 Ruler of the Floating Island (5)
The upgraded version of the Blood Tentacle was also easily killed by him. Hence, Ajax was confident in dealing with an even more powerful Blood Tentacle.
Thus, he encouraged Maximus to use some other methods to increase the Blood Essence in the Blood Pond to create a more powerful Blood Tentacle.
“Y-you are more powerful than I imagined.”
Hearing Ajax’s words, Maximus was furious; however, he controlled his anger because he knew he could no longer kill Ajax.
“Don’t think this is over yet. I am going to take revenge for what happened today.”
Maximus clenched his fists as he said those words.
“Huh?”
When Ajax heard Maximus’ words, he could not help but frown, thinking, ‘Do you think I will let you live today?’
For a brief moment, Ajax thought of taking Maximus as his contracted spirit beast as it would give him some good benefits.
However, now, the other party made it look like it was Ajax’s fault for invading the Water Region.
“Hey, Vampire. Stop being a child and face the consequences of your decisions.”
Ajax could not take it anymore and decided to snap Maximus out of his delusion.
“What did you say?”
Maximus became furious with Ajax’s tone.
“The moment you have the goal of becoming the sole ruler of the Floating Island, you should be ready to face the loss as there will always be someone more powerful than you and me.”
“Most importantly, your method of defending an invasion was a fault to begin with.”
“Who would sacrifice their subordinates to defend an invasion?”
“Of course, it was inevitable to lose the lives of your subordinates during an invasion; however, you directly sacrificed without giving them a chance to fight.”
“You got some good subordinates who would even sacrifice themselves on your orders. If only used them in the right way along with your access to the Heavenly Bestial Realm, the outcome might be in your favour.”

Ajax said a bunch of things that came to his mind and whatever he said, they all came from his heart.
“…”
On the other hand, hearing Ajax’s words, Maximus’ anger decreased a little as he started thinking about those words.
‘What he said…they are also true.’
Maximus, for the first time in his life, agreed to someone else’s words and blamed himself.
“Thank you.”
To Ajax’s surprise, he saw Maximus thank him and continued saying, “I will wait for you in the Heavenly Realm. When we meet again, I will be stronger and take my revenge for today.”
‘Gulp’
In the next second, Maximus collected some blood from his palms from the Blood Pond and drank it.
‘Swoosh’
Soon, Ajax saw Maximus’ entire body shine with a bright red-coloured light.
“Is he escaping? Not a chance.”
Ajax was surprised when he heard Maximus thank him and by the time he came out of his surprise, he saw Maximus was planning to escape from here.
However, how could Ajax let Maximus escape now?
He knew how cold-hearted and cunning Maximus was. If Maximus escapes from here, Ajax would have to live in constant worry.
If it was a regular peak of the Emperor Realm, Ajax would not have thought much about it.
However, it was someone who had connections with the Heavenly Bestial Realm and given enough time, Maximus could become an invincible cultivator in the Earth Realm.
When that thing happens, the first thing Maximus would do is take revenge on Ajax and his family and friends.
So, there was no way Ajax was letting Maximus go alive from here.
“It’s too late.”
On the other hand, Maximus looked at Ajax with a calm look on his face.
[Celestial Void Step]
‘Swoosh’
With a single step, Ajax was already beside Maximus and he was ready to slash Maximus’s body into half with his Soulslasher.
‘Dang’
However, a blood-coloured barrier appeared around Maximus that blocked Ajax’s attack.
“As I said, it is too late for you to stop me.”
Today, Maximus has gone through many things. Currently, there was no anger or happiness on his face.
He continued speaking, “The moment Moore sacrificed himself and gave his Condensed Blood Essence to me, I have become someone who could not be killed by you.”
“What? Can’t be killed by me?”
Ajax frowned when he heard Maximus; however, he didn’t want to agree with Maximus’ words and slashed at Maximus once more, only to see it was blocked again by the same Blood Barrier from earlier.
“However, I will remember your words and try to change my ways.”
Maximus didn’t look down on Ajax as he continued speaking, “When you ascend to the Heavenly Realm if you want to live a little longer, you have to stay away from all the Blood Palaces away from the Heavenly Realm. If you stay near the Blood Palaces, I will come to you and take revenge for what happened today.”
“Anyway, it is time for me to ascend to the Heavenly Bestial Realm to meet my Great Grandfather.”
‘Swoosh’
Soon, the bright light emitted by Maximus’ body became brighter and then, a beam of bright red-coloured light came out of Maximus’ body that pierced through the sky.
‘Kacha’
There was a sound of glass breaking as Ajax and everyone saw cracks appear in the sky.
“I-its…the portal to the Heavenly Realm…He opened a portal to the Heavenly Realm.”
Among everyone present in the Water Region, Rosaline and Oberon were the most knowledgeable ones as they instantly recognized what was happening.
“What? Opening a portal to the Heavenly Realm? Can a cultivator directly do that?”
Ajax was shocked to hear their words as he looked at the sky with an unbelievable expression on his face.
As far as Ajax knew, when a cultivator’s Divine Rules reached 100 percent awakening, they met the requirements to trigger the Lightning Tribulation.
Moreover, the cultivator will be given a month to make enough preparations for the Lightning Tribulation required for the ascension.
Only after successfully going through the Lightning Tribulation, a portal to the Heavenly Realm depending on the Cultivator’s race would be opened.
However, right now, the Veiled Vampire Emperor in front of him has directly opened a portal to the Heavenly Realm. So, not only Ajax, but everyone was shocked.
