The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 1452 1452: True Immortal

"Well, I will be damned,"

A grin crept across Klaus's face, soon erupting into booming laughter that ripped from his throat, reverberating throughout the shattered realm.

All those watching stood frozen in shock, their eyes bulging wide not in terror, but pure amazement and incredulity.

The reason for Klaus's laughter was the mysterious energy forming in his soul after consuming Lady Danika's blood—it proved far more valuable than imagined.

He hadn't anticipated this at all.

He had assumed several more encounters with Lady Danika would pass before revealing the purpose of this novel power.

Yet, astonishingly, only a day and a half after its emergence, it already managed to refine supreme essence.

This breakthrough left Klaus utterly astounded.

He hadn't foreseen it becoming useful so quickly. Yet it did, confirming at last that the odd energy posed no danger to fear.

It supported him precisely when aid was most desperate, earning full trust. Regrettably, it remained only partially awakened and enigmatic for now. Still, refining the Supreme Qi propelled his cultivation into a meteoric rise.

This explained the spectators' dumbfounded gazes.

Besides Klaus himself, lingering at High Level Real Immortal, three bodies had hit Peak Real Immortal, one even advancing to True Immortal.

Five minutes later.

<Congratulations, your P2 body is now a True Immortal.>

<Congratulations, your P3 body is now a True Immortal.>

<Congratulations, your P4 body is now a True Immortal.>

Klaus blinked several times, then flashed a sly smirk.

'Seems the names I assigned weren't accepted by the system,' he mused briefly before resolving to devise fresh ones.

Yet first, he needed to consider future ramifications. The universe already knew the Paragon had returned.

Though unseen in the flesh so far, his presence guaranteed massive ripples. This time around, though, he wouldn't stir the chaos alone.

At minimum, five figures would dive into the frenzy alongside him. Naturally, one was the Renegade Hunter, long rumored to be the Paragon.

That suspicion had cleared, yet ties to the Paragon would haunt him for years ahead.

Next came the criminal body, connected to both Renegade Hunter and Paragon alike. Now unleashed, it was certain to draw scrutiny.

His remaining trio included the body entering Warrior Tower, the one destined for Demon Universe, and the unborn Bounty Hunter identity.

As these avatars began creating havoc, Heavens Court would inevitably link them to the Paragon.

Klaus desired such associations, but not without effort on their part—he craved their own deductions.

On the day he ascended to godhood, the universe would recognize him as the Paragon. Thus, he aimed for suspicions across every persona he deployed.

That way, the revelation wouldn't shock too deeply.

To foster this, he'd draw from past-life aliases, subtly altered for ambiguity.

The criminal, born from Primordial Vampire Monarch bloodline, avoided the obvious Magnus to spark doubt without certainty, forcing Heavens Court into speculation alone.

'Icon, assign P1 the name Rhazor—it suits his vampire essence ideally. Then name P2 Orion.'

[Acknowledged, Master.]

Klaus nodded internally, pondering a superior moniker for the void-bound body. Moments later, he settled on Kaden, while the Earth assignee became Efad.

Thus, their universal debuts would evoke connections through nomenclature. Spotting a lethal elementalist like the 8th Paragon named Efad—a widespread yet 9th Paragon-matched name—would baffle onlookers.

Heavens Court would struggle to unravel the puzzle.

With that settled, Klaus resumed devouring and purifying the incoming essence.

Thirty minutes passed before he personally broke through to True Immortal.

Meanwhile, across the cosmos, whispers exploded about the Renegade Hunter's abrupt breakthrough.

With trillions of devotees, over 90% checked his status daily for updates on feats.

That day, his cultivation's sudden surge delivered a jaw-dropping jolt to every follower.

The revelation fragmented minds everywhere, leaving many pondering its impossibility.

"Even if he boasts a rock-solid foundation—which I know he has, hailing from the Zorvian family—that still fails to justify his blistering leveling speed despite enduring tribulation after each rank-up."

"Indeed. Could he be exempt from facing the Heavenly Tribulation?"

These doubts rapidly circulated far and wide, prompting countless others to ponder the identical mystery.

All onlookers watched his level climb upward in real time.

Klaus surged through levels every few minutes, his vault from Early Immortal stage to Real Immortal and now True Immortal sparking far more queries than clarifications.

Numerous spectators started questioning if he truly embodied the Paragon they whispered about. Only a freakish prodigy like that could unleash such a jaw-dropping feat.

Fortuitously, and quite shockingly, clarity arrived as the Burning Angel blasted a warning via the Mission Hall channels.

His declaration rang simple and direct... "I have taken in the Renegade Hunter as my disciple, so he is under my care. Anyone who dares label him as anything other than the Renegade Hunter will face my wrath."

His proclamation unleashed a bone-chilling wave across the universe. Everyone stoking the idea that the Renegade Hunter was the Paragon hastily pulled back their statements, with droves disabling their profiles.

Everyone knows that among the universe's Celestials, the Burning Angel claims a spot in the top 10 mightiest.

The Heavens Court itself wouldn't dare tangle with him. Indeed, even the Supreme Celestial—proclaimed by many as the ultimate Celestial—treads warily around the Burning Angel.

Thus, his bold statement struck terror into any soul tempted to brand the Renegade Hunter as the Paragon.

Still, while calm prevailed outwardly, the Burning Angel had churned up a storm below. By claiming the Renegade Hunter as his disciple, he ignited fury among rival juggernauts—namely the Heavens Court.

Their scheme had long aimed to shape the Renegade Hunter into a flagship icon. Yet now, with a mentor secured, those ambitions face inevitable roadblocks.

Had it been some ordinary Celestial, smoothing things over might have been straightforward. But with this powerhouse in play, chaos looms just ahead.
