The Inheritance Of The Supreme Immortals

"Something's happening."

Outside, Sam was still inside the golden globe formed by the amassing of unknown energies, so potent that even the ancient cultivators failed to perceive them.

The air in the surroundings began to dance violently, as if welcoming an unstoppable hurricane about to destroy cities in its path.

The wild flying beasts flew away altogether, making scared noises as if warning others of the predator that woke up from its nap.

Golden clouds dense in the sky covered the entire visible sky, with sparks of white and golden lightning dancing around as if waiting to greet the great emperor.

This strange, never-before-seen occurrence wasn't just happening in the Azure Dragon Continent.

Every other continent—White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, Yin-Yang—was also experiencing the same phenomenon.

Then, at some point, in an instance, everything went back to normal.

The golden clouds slowly dissipated, revealing the purple sky of the nightingale.

The temperature and atmosphere returned stoic, with calm and gentle breezes scratching the faces of everyone present.

Soon, absolute silence prevailed, while the gentle breezing sound of golden energy dissipated, leaving a figure floating in a daze.

Sam still had his eyes closed, small particles of golden energy revolving around him like electrons and protons circling the nucleus.

<You have reestablished your connection with the Universal Tree and World Trees.>

<You have regained your past life's memories and experiences.>

<You have regained full control over the Codex and its functions.>

<You have reattained your status as the Son of the Universe, the Administrator of Worlds, the Supreme One, the Beginning of Anomalies, Emperor of Gods, the one who carries the fate of the Universe...>

<Congratulations on completing the awakening. The Codex welcomes her true master.>

Sam's white hair danced in a gentle breeze as he slowly descended into the ground, resembling the spirit of the moon granting its flowers witness.

"We, the Shadow Army, welcome our Supreme Lord, the King of Shadows," Bobby, Sam's first general of the Shadow Army, kneeled down on one knee, addressing his lord as if beholding him for the first time.

He didn't know why, but upon Sam's complete awakening, it felt as if he stood in the presence of someone boundless and infinite.

The sense of absolute submission he already possessed grew infinitely stronger.

The same held true for the thousands of remaining shadow beasts and shadow soldiers.

Kneeling before this entity felt like the most profound honor that could be bestowed upon them.

The entire arena fell into a hushed silence at this moment.

They experienced pure pressure, an unprecedented feeling of the unknown stronger than ever.

The peerless being in front of them was someone they could never understand from the outset, and now that being had magnified multiple times over.

Even Sophia, who longed to run to her little brother and embrace him until their bodies merged, held back.

The overwhelming aura emanating from her brother was simply unbearable.

Sam gradually unfurled his eyelids, revealing blue orbs that seemed to harbor the mysteries of the universe.

As his eyes opened, a phenomenon unfolded.

Cracks materialized in the purple sky, the formation that had blocked sunlight over the nightingale became unstable due to his awakening, summoning golden clouds with intense lightning, disrupting the formation.

"No, if the purple sky disappears, we will be exposed to direct sunlight," a vampire spoke in horror.

But before such a catastrophe could transpire, Sam waved his hand, and the cracks in the purple sky healed in an instant.

<You have regained control over the Purple Cascade Sky Formation.>

"It's been a while, Shisu."

<It is master, it's great to have you back.>

"Have all the functions of the codex been unlocked? Also, analyze why I couldn't get into the channel to communicate with my sisters and mother."

<All the functions are in place and ready to use by your command, and as for the connection, your body is still getting used to the universal essence.>

<It might take a couple of days before you can communicate with your sisters and Her Majesty. Though I'm sure you can communicate with your sister governing this world in a private channel, master.>

"Hmm," Sam closed his eyes and channeled his thoughts in an unknown direction.

"The connection is too weak to form a complete channel. Looks like I have to go to the Black Tortoise Continent," Sam sighed in a sad tone.

"Before that, I have to establish order and deal with some complicated stuff caused by these corrupted ones," Sam muttered.

"Bring out the vials containing the essence of all the progenitors," Sam spoke.

The codex appeared out of his eyes, and he didn't care that everyone was watching.

As soon as the codex appeared, it abruptly opened, sending streaks of lights revealing vials containing essence blood sparkling with white lights.

<Master, I advise you to merge with one blood essence at a time. It might disrupt your spirituality even if you are the son of the universe. After all, these are progenitor essences we're talking about.>

"I know what I'm doing. Did you forget, I was the one who turned them into progenitors in the first place? These are mine to begin with, but I agree devouring them all at once would definitely cause a problem."

Progenitors were the fourth-ranked beings responsible for the creation of life and civilization.

First place being the universal tree, second being world trees, and third being the Gods of life and other life-related deities.

"Since I'm in Nightingale, I will go with this one," Sam pointed his hand, activating his unique ability—the Devour.

A strong suction force made of blood-red energy erupted from his hand in the form of a whirlpool and pulled the vial containing the essence of the Vampire progenitor into it.

<The assimilation of the bloodline of the Vampire progenitor begins.>

<Assimilation: 1%>

<Assimilation: 15%>

<Assimilation: 30%>

<Assimilation: 50%>

<Assimilation: 70%>

<Assimilation: 95%>

Right when Sam brought out the codex from his inner world, the cultivator who caught it had a sudden instinctive reaction to take that codex for themselves.

But they couldn't because there was a very horrific army of shadows guarding him like he was some sort of god of death.

Right when the cultivators were losing patience, the vampires among them, noble or not, began to feel something strange.

"What's going on? Why do I feel like my blood is boiling?" Kate looked at her shaking hand and then noticed that it was not just her— all the vampires present were going through a similar reaction.

Then suddenly, that feeling soared to the sky, the vampires unable to control their bodies as they knelt to the ground, having their hands help them prevent smashing their faces into the dirt.

Back to Sam, he was currently assimilating with the true essence of the progenitor vampires.

The Son of the Universe is similar to the World Tree because they were born from the same origin and essence.

It's just that their roles in the universe are different.

World Trees are responsible for preserving life, and Sam, the Son of the Universe, is responsible for guarding and ensuring evolution continues, which includes the World Trees and the life within them.

But that doesn't change the fact that the Son of the Universe came from the same source as the World Trees, meaning he also possesses the essence of life.

This same life essence allowed him to quickly merge with the essence of the progenitor of vampires, who is also a being of life essence.

Inside a very dense dome made of blood-red energy swirling around, Sam's figure stood, experiencing the changes happening in his physical body as his assimilation reached one hundred percent.

His skin grew paler, while his build became more firm, lean, and tight with muscles.

His blue eyes turned blood-red, and his white hair turned a dark shade of black.

A pair of teeth, sharp enough to tear through anything, extended with a sharp glint.

His dragon wings disappeared, along with his dragon lineage, which seemed to become temporarily dormant.

In the place of his dragon wings, a pair of wings made out of pure blood, huge enough to cover his entire body, extended.

They blasted the globe of blood energy away, leaving revealing Sam standing in his progenitor vampire form.
