The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse Chapter 1734: Forbidden Elemental God

[Elemental Garden]

While days had passed in the Primus Universe, months had already passed in the Elemental Garden. That also meant it had been months since Kaden had entered the god ascension trial.

At the moment, King Xzeth, Queen Harxix, Thokk, Xexaria, Pickle Berry, Namariona and Maneli stood before the gateway, watching as a potent aura filled with so much elemental essence started to come out of the gateway.

In the past months, when Kaden entered the trial, they didn’t bother to come and see what was happening. After all, they knew he needed his privacy.

However, from the moment the elemental aura started to come out of the portal, they all became curious.

"I have never seen this much elemental essence, not even close to what I experienced on the 50th floor of the elemental tower," Thokk said, admiring that unnatural release of energy.

As he stood there, he could feel his understanding of his elements expand.

The same was true for the rest, just that some were seeing much deeper into this elemental energy than others.

King Xzeth sighed in his heart and said, "I had sensed it before, and it was when I reached the 70th floor."

Pickle Berry turned and looked at his father. "Dad, what is on the 70th floor?" she asked, hoping to learn something and tell Kaden later, since he had plans to climb the tower and see why he was being directed there.

King Xzeth smiled, and while he mostly ignored questions like this, he answered, shocking even his wife...

"The 70th floor is just like the other floors. However, the potency of the elemental essence there is on another level. Aside from that, the laws are much more visible there, and even the Origin Dao is several times clearer to perceive there than in the Elemental Pool."

He paused and then explained himself.

"The Elemental Pool is another treasure where we cultivate our elements by meditating inside. However, unlike that which deals with absorbing the elemental essence in the water, the Elemental Tower has tests that must be passed if one wishes to climb higher."

"Oh, that sounds like something Big Brother Kaden will love. He is really good at solving puzzles." Pickle Berry smiled, wishing Kaden would come out sooner so he could shock everyone with his intelligence and comprehension.

King Xzeth just smiled and nodded at Pickle Berry’s words.

He knew when the time came, Kaden would understand that not everything could be solved with intelligence. Sometimes, one needed experience, and as far as he could tell, Kaden wasn’t that old to have accumulated much experience.

Still, sensing the energy coming through the gateway, he could only sigh and hope Kaden would indeed surprise them all when he finally stepped into the elemental tower.

Suddenly, Namariona opened her eyes from her meditative state and looked at the gateway... "Uhm, it would be ideal if you all moved back... like right now."

King Xzeth grabbed Pickle Berry’s hand, and the next second, they were dozens of miles away, leaving only Namariona, who formed a hand seal and pointed it at the gateway.

ROARRRR

The next second, a loud dragon’s roar came from the gateway, accompanied by searing heat so intense that the surrounding space cracked like glass and began to melt.

"What the..." Maneli tried to speak, but his words caught in his mouth when, through the gateway, an orange flame dragon with the presence of a predator came flying out, soaring into the air.

Its wings spread open, with every flap breaking the void and pouring down heat so intense that Namariona could only shield herself...

ROARRRR

A second roar came, and a white dragon also soared out. Then a Qilin, now at least 100 meters in size, came out. The moment the Qilin came out, a red phoenix also flew out, adding to the pressure.

"What in the name of the Elemental God?" Maneli muttered, his expression turning a bit pale as he sensed the pressure from the four beasts in the sky.

He was a Primordial, but the pressure coming from the four Primordial Flame Spirits was one he couldn’t seem to brush off. Even King Xzeth held an expression that showed he wasn’t looking down on these beasts at all.

They were dangerous, and judging by the aura pouring out of their bodies, he could speculate that they each possessed the power to battle Primordials.

Things got worse the next moment when one beast after another started to fly out of the gateway. The first four were flame beasts, the next seven were ice beasts.

Then the other elemental beasts followed, and in no time, dozens of beasts, each a powerhouse that couldn’t be underestimated, filled the sky.

After flying around for a few minutes, they all landed and transformed into their humanoid forms.

Then, in what could be considered the grandest welcoming of the century, they formed two rows before the portal, and just as the energy fluctuation reached an all-time high, they shouted...

"We welcome the Forbidden Elemental God."

"All hail the Paragon of the Elements!"

"All hail the Elemental Paragon!"

The gateway trembled, and a lone figure clad in futuristic armor, forged from an alien material, appeared. The surface of the armor had a liquid-like display, causing even the black and brown colors to shimmer as he took steps away from the gateway.

A spear was sheathed behind him, and judging by how much aura was pouring from his body, one could tell Kaden had already reached the Universal God stage.

A few months ago, he was a demigod, but now, he had become a Universal God, and that alone was just mind-bending. However, the shock came from the manifestation behind him.

Behind him stood a translucent figure wearing a mask.

The figure was about 15 meters tall, with a presence unlike anything anyone had ever seen. He was as though he wasn’t meant to exist in this plane of existence, or he wasn’t even welcome here.

However, as they looked at him, everyone could sense their minds opening, and waves of understanding from unknown realms started to pour in.

"This... this is a Dao Manifestation," Queen Harxix muttered, her eyes widening.
