Chapter 424 - Just a Glimpse of True Genius!
Noah's Ancient Blood Clone opened his crimson eyes in the void of space, his figure's devilishly handsome look being enhanced in this environment as he floated in darkness and had an aurora of golden colored lights and fate lines all around him.
His dark hair that had streaks of silver was growing ever so larger, nearing his shoulders once more as it shimmered with its own essence! He got up from his seated position in the void of space as he stopped burning enormous amounts of mana into {Fate's Disciple} and {Disciple of Chaos}, the overflowing golden color brought about by the Lines of Fate beginning to die down as he finished the second cultivation session while using the method that was unique only to him.
After half a day, he had added another 24,000 Fate Lines as he brought his full amount to just over 81,000! This number already neared those who would cultivate for years, and he has achieved it in the span of a day!
At this moment in time, his Fate Lines were leading once more as the Chaos Particles remained at around 50,000, his next cultivation session would be to burn fate lines and increase the Chaos Particles as he expected them to break over the one hundred thousand milestone.
Breaking the 100,000 milestone would allow one to begin using Fate Lines and Chaos Particles in a new way, granting them the ability to release pure Fate and Chaos Energy in their attacks that were even deadlier to the opposing element!
The War Princess Athena would soon break past this point, but Noah would not be far behind as he would soon even surpass her at a rate that would shock them if they knew.
Noah's goal was to still appear as a genius in the eyes of the Celestials, and he would expose this genius some more over the next few days as he slowly revealed his rapidly increasing fate lines at a rate that would make them think he was a terrifying genius, yet not treat him like an anomaly to be researched. But whatever he showed them would simply be just a glimpse of what he could truly do!
His expression was determined as he glanced around the void of space around him, the golden light having died down majorly as things went back to normal. His figure turned into particles of light as he disappeared from the location and returned to the Spiritual World.
He appeared above this massive and fantasy like treasure that looked like a huge landmass which was connected to four shimmering floating continental landmasses as he took in the magnificence before his energy began to flow over, activating the [Size Regulation] feature of the Spiritual World as then enormous star sized treasure began shrinking rapidly!
RUMBLE!
The essence required to use features like Size Regulation were increased by an enormous amount as the tier of the Spiritual World increased, but this meant nothing to Noah as the large treasure continued to shrink in his eyes until it was a few inches, his mind never being able to understand how the spacial mysteries worked with this feature that effectively meant he could have an entire world be the size of his thumb, yet when he entered it, it would still seem like a massive world in his eyes! It was a scene of fantasy that made one suspend their beliefs and simply enjoy the brilliance of such a treasure!
The Spiritual World was then anchored to his body as he disappeared from the junction of Light and Dark Expanse, returning to the Ancient Pedestal below the volcanic mountain as the next plans were to let the powerful beasts and Elena return to their exploration of the Celestial Realm as they increased their power, the Fire Origin Cores and powerful abilities from the Inheritance of the Disciple of Fire being put to full use as they continued their advancement.
Elena's figure appeared in the lava filled space as she looked towards Noah with an expression of infatuation, the Emperor Penguin and others also appearing as their forces prepared to move out.
"Master, the forces of the Dark Expanse were successful in setting up a spatial connection, and they should be able to freely collect the treasures of this realm as they increase their power as well."
Elena sent a telepathic message towards Noah as his eyes seemed to be asking for praise as she continued to reveal secrets about the forces that still thought she had her allegiance with. Noah nodded towards the curvaceous woman as he patted her head full of silver hair, an expression of happiness spreading out as Noah talked while glancing at all of them.
"Be careful as you move, and if you run into any Elite Behemoths, call me right away."
His forces nodded with seriousness as they began to move out, their bodies equipped with powerful Bloodstained Infernal Sets from the materials of millions of Infernals that Noah had hunted while he was bringing the percentage of Infernal Lord to 100%.
He had saved an enormous amount of the bodies of Infernals as he left the job of crafting them to the Spiritual World System over the last day, many of his forces being armed with the powerful items that protected them against Flame Behemoths!
A few of them were even wearing completed Incandescent Flameborn Sets, two more sets being able to be completed as Noah used the material that his main body had received as well as Behemoths that Elena and the others had hunted. Their bodies shone with strength and power as he expected them to be able to handle Normal Fire Behemoths with ease, and this was especially so for the Emperor Penguin and Elena that held the Incandescent Flameborn Sets!
His clone had yet to begin crafting the materials of Elite Chaos Behemoths that he was slowly collecting, his heart set on collecting all materials and completing a full set instantly some time soon.
As for the next task of the clone, it was to oversee the upgrade of another skill tree as his main body continued to use it while fighting alongside Celestials, the powerful skill tree that was [Fate's Guardian] being the next one that was ready to be upgraded!
The clone glanced at the panel that showed the information of the possible advancement paths as he began choosing which of the many Void Rank skills he had obtained as loot to sacrifice.
[Fate's Guardian](45/45) :: As a beginner just learning the workings of fate, the role of a guardian that protects the weak and eviscerates evil is given to you. Abilities include Empyrean Guards(5/5), Empyrean Armament(5/5), Smite of Liberation(5/5), and Judgment(5/5). Two Skill Trees for evolution are possible once sufficient points and a base requirement of two equivalent level sacrificial skills are reached: >> [Devout Follower] :: A follower on the path of fate, grants the user protective abilities that will enhance their power and those around them. >> [Unruly Guider] :: A path of one that questions and forms their own rules, using immense offensive power to guide lost beings.
The two choices of advancement for [Fate's Guardian] was either [Devout Follower] or [Unruly Guider]! The impassive gaze of the clone already knew the choice he would make as unimportant skills were sacrificed, a light of brilliance shining out as a tinge of gold covered the blue stat panel, another skill tree advancing silently!
