"That should be impossible," the Celestial Supreme muttered, his expression dark. "The universe soul had already perished during the beginning of the 4th reincarnation cycle, so it is impossible for the Paragon to be pardoned by the Heavenly Dao."
His words carried a tone that suggested he knew more than most, but despite it all, none of what he had just heard was possible.
The universe is vast and all-encompassing, and he has some measure of control over it. This was possible because he had been bestowed certain authorities over the universe by the Heavenly Dao. It was how he had been able to remain in his position for countless eras.
It was also the reason why he wasn't afraid of the Paragon.
He knew that when it came down to it, he would be able to harness that authority and use it against the Paragon. Even if he can't kill him, he could make him despair like he did several times during his incarnations.
