Chapter 2389 The First And The Last True Emperors IV
"This can be arranged, but I would first need you to glimpse Providence again and take it to the Third Boundary Layer at the very least."
A golden light erupted from his body that even Aurelia brought her sharp eyes to gaze at- it was the light of a Consummate Boundary, the light of Providence!
It clustered towards Orion as he came to hold the bundle of gold in his hands.
The figure of Aurelia appeared beside him as she spoke out calmly.
"I want it too."
WAA!
"Be my guest." Noah freely gave out what all Elder Ancestors here were looking for, this being his condition for Genesis to glimpse the Barren Lands again as anyone who grasped his Boundaries…he could exert a level of influence on!
After all, he had bound their Sources.
They were integrated with him!
He could even slowly and pathogenically influence a soul without its knowledge.
Of course, a Soul that was vastly stronger than him like that of an Apex Aeonic Lifeform would be affected very little as they would even likely find out the moment he used Quintessential Pathogenicity on them.
But then, there was also the Barren Lands that were the tool Noah used to bind the Sources of Extremity he held.
The control they could exert over beings who were connected or utilizing its Source was stupendous as Noah had affirmed with Providence and Destiny multiple times- but even an Apex Aeonic Lifeform could be repulsed or expulsed instantly so long as they held a strong enough connection to one of its Sources!
It was simply another Layer of protection even though Noah knew and Destiny foretold that Orion nor Aurelia would never make any moves to harm the Infinite Plane. But it didn't mean Noah couldn't take precautions, nor that he couldn't gain benefits from it like gaining a line of influence into Apex Aeonic Lifeforms.
BZZT!
The golden light of Providence was absorbed into Orion's body as inexplicable emotions rose, unimportant Boundaries being sacrificed within his soul at this moment as a potent light of Providence very quickly arrived at the 9th Boundary Layer.
He didn't merely stop at the Third Boundary Layer as Noah had mentioned, this being the first Consummate Boundary that he held as he rose it to the highest level that he could in a short period of time!
Taking it to the 10th Boundary Layer was a whole other task entirely as even Aurelia beside him stopped on the 9th Boundary.
"Interesting, this really is that same Providence…this gives you some sort of assurance?"
Aurelia spoke succinctly as Noah nodded with sharp eyes, pointing his hand behind him as a resplendent gateway bloomed an instant later!
It was none other than a cluster of spatial vortices merging together that led into the Infinite Plane still floating in the Planar Palisades of Extremity.
"It is not named the Barren Lands any longer, so let me welcome you to…my Infinite Plane."
WAA!
Utmost grandeur and majesty erupted out as the figure of Genesis gravitated towards the gateway as if he could feel an unbreakable pull.
His empty sockets surged with a milky white light as his visage and the visage of Aurelia followed the Dream Dimensional Chassis into the dazzling gateway- no other beings moving an inch as Ophelia was the first one to sigh in relief as if a heavy weight was lifted off her shoulders, turning towards the clones of Adelaide and others who didn't venture out for Conquest as they felt like they could finally converse freely once more!
"That went better than I could have even imagined…" Ophelia spoke towards Adelaide who held a similar devilish smile as Noah, her starry attention reading the emotions of all those around them as she replied to Ophelia.
—
The Barren Lands.
This was what he knew them as.
But when he stepped through the gateway…what he found seemed to be the home he remembered, and yet it seemed to be something else entirely!
Even Aurelia gazed on in seriousness as they appeared in a region filled with stellar particles of light weaving endlessly for light years- this region being in the outer periphery of the Infinite Plane as before their senses, they saw the stacked structure of 9 Minor Planes filled with uniquely colored Cosmos and structures, as well as endless rivers of reality and massive Cosmos unlike anything they had seen before!
"All of it…you saved all of it."
Orion spoke with genuine shock in his eyes as he was bracing for the worst.
But there it was.
Radiant.
Stellar.
Gorgeous.

It was the 9 Minor Planes he knew and the vastly bigger Major Plane that seemed to contain them, endless clusters of Realities and Cosmos weaving amongst each other as on top of all this…
"Why is there such a potent aura of Extremity?"
Aurelia was the one to voice it out quizzically as even though it was the Planes they knew, they also felt the environment feel very similar to the Havens of Extremity as Noah calmly replied to this confusion.
"The Natural Laws and Decreta that govern it are all going towards Extremity. Naturally, the Infinite Plane itself is doing the same thing."
BOOM!
Shocking words emanated from Noah as they caused both the Clones of the Apex Aeonic Lifeforms to gaze at him.
It was simply too preposterous as when Orion felt the aura of Consummate Boundaries stemming from all fabric of Reality in these past Barren Lands…
"It may actually be possible. With something like this, your ideals of forming an Inheritance may not be an impossibility."
…!
As Orion spoke, his Will perked up as he noticed the aura of multiple beings begin to appear before them.
His soul trembled as it was auras of the Lineages of the 9 Minor Planes he very well remembered.
The figures of Albus from the Prana Dimension, The Old Dreamer, Guinevere…the main bodies of all the Dimensional Rulers began to appear as those who had remained behind in the Barren Lands met those who had left too long ago!
—
An meeting of destiny and Providence.
An meeting of choices!
Choices.
They were ultimately what decided the path to be taken as at this moment, the main bodies of Orion, Aurelia, and Lucia tore through space ever faster to arrive at the Lernaean Apex Aeonic Domain.
Orion's expression was bright as only he and Aurelia's clones were seeing the Infinite Plane with their eyes, Orion's voice echoing out as they were seconds away from arriving into the Lernaean Apex Aeonic Domain.
"Aurelia, an even grander path may just be possible. With all of the Natural Laws and Decreta expanding towards Extremity along with the Plane itself…we will have to make sure everything is taken care of quickly in order to explore this path even more and seclude ourselves from the Eyes of others. They must not know just what we have!"
His eyes were sharp.
He knew that the usurpation of Roan's authority had to happen quickly as their Lineage had to prepare and steer clear of the attention of Inheritances, the benefits they had alone being something they needed time to swallow as they didn't need to sell themselves off to factions that would divide and use them!
So he made his choice as his blazing aura and that of Aurelia and Lucia arrived in the Lernaean Apex Aeonic Domain.
Dozens of thrones lay before their attention as the few that remained taken were still the same, the violet throne where a certain Apex Aeonic Lernaean Lineage Emperor Roan sat being just as bright if not brighter as he looked towards them impassively.
Seeing the holder of the Aeonic Forge of Extremity standing beside Orion and knowing very well of her power and influence, rage couldn't help but rise in the attention of Roan as he saw Orion was truly serious about his usurpation!
But…just as Orion had made his choice, so had Roan.
And he now stared at his fellow beings that had come for his throne and authority without fear as no matter what choice they made…it could not be grander than the one he had just made with an Inheritance from the Aeonic Haven of Penumbra!
