Severin nodded and replied, "Yes. I am still a supreme paragon."
A bitter smile soon unfolded across Oskar's face. "Why does it seem as though you've become one with heaven and earth? You had me thinking that you attained immortality."
Oskar could not shake the illusion that Severin had transcended mortal boundaries and merged with a path to become a true immortal. His deduction was based on his inability to detect any fluctuations in Severin's aura or attainment.
Severin did not know how to respond to that. His recent breakthrough was achieved by activating universes in his cells, which increased his attainment and mana to the next level and deepened his understanding of the Rules of Heaven and Earth. Consequently, his integration with the world around him had reached a profound level, rendering his aura undetectable to Oskar.
After inviting Oskar and the others into the courtyard, Severin effortlessly manipulated the law of creation and spurred the growth of a spiritual tea seedling before their eyes. He plucked a few of its leaves, placed them in a tea bowl, and conjured water from the spiritual spring. He then kindled some flames to boil the water, and it was not long before several cups of fragrant tea adorned the stone table.
"Help yourselves," Severin gestured, inviting everyone to have some tea.
Oskar and Roman sat down and savored the tea. Their expressions were thoroughly relaxed and content. "Thank you for your gesture. Now that you can revive even barren trees, I suppose this means you have received favor from the law of creation," Oskar remarked after a sip.
Severin's ability to coax vegetation into growth left all of them in awe. The vitality imbued by the rich power of the rules was so strong that it could infuse everything with vigor. Similarly, the spiritual tea brewed by Severin's deft manipulation of the rules contained an energy that should not be underestimated.
