Chapter 1345 - Innumerable Paths, I Choose A Single One! I
The Infinite Empire had always been calm and free of worries since the moment Noah took the reins of the single Dark Universe that was now contained within one of its many Cosmos so many weeks ago.
The Cosmic Filament Core had never met with any disturbance it couldn't handle, so it was a shock to it when the oppressive and undeniable power of a Primordial began to descend down in the Infinite Empire!
But as the Core sent communications to its Master, it realized that he was calm.
In turn, the consciousness of the Cosmic Filament Core also turned calm.
If the Master had no reason to worry, then he could shoulder everything that was to come!
WAA!
The vast consciousness of the Cosmic Filament Core receded as it didn't put up any resistance. Deep in a unique spatial environment that could only be reached by the one controlling the Cosmic Treasure Ruination- all of Noah's Universal Body clones and the main body that was just testing the Nomological Edict of Commandment appeared within the Ruination Realm along with the clones and bodies of Noah's second human Origin.
Only the single human body of Noah- the one that he had all those years ago when he absorbed the [Fireball] skill tree and began on this journey, only this remained in the Novus Universe of the Primordial Cosmos as his eyes were calm without an ounce of fear while gazing towards the stellar space that had begun to vibrate!
THRUM!
The Cosmic Holy Land was nowhere to be seen. The grand Library had virtually disappeared! Only the cluster of Law and Dao Galaxies that held Spiritual Herbs and Fruits remained glittering in space when the spot that Noaj was staring at began to shake, Ruination and Primordial Essence leaking out to open the very space itself as a single figure stepped out of it gracefully.
"..."
Pristinely veiled in white all around, yet Noah felt her penetrating gaze all the way from the place he floated at as an instant later, she arrived before him!
"Curiouser and curiouser…"
Her voice echoed out melodiously as Noah rose up with an expression that was trying to hide his surprise, looking towards this Primordial in shock as her head turned to observe their surroundings and the Cosmos that lay all around them to make up the Infinite Empire.
"I knew your Destiny must be decent to be capable of touching on and affecting reality…I just didn't think you would be so proactive and special that you have actually collected 100 Cosmos to protect while you yourself have forged over 600 million Universes."
Her veiled gaze actually held a hidden appreciation as the 'surprised' Noah before her stumbled to say the words he wanted to say, but he eventually voiced out.
"This is nothing, Esteemed One. I am just doing my best to protect those I can after all the things you mentioned to me all those years!"
Noah felt his own skin and blood crawl when he said these words, finding them distasteful to the utmost as they weren't at all how he thought of this being before him!
But for the future he anticipated, he had to act in such a way- even if it was briefly.
Of course, her words that said he had forged 600 million Universes were false, these only being the Universes that this auxiliary body of his had passively forged while feeding on the connection between the Main Universal Body that was already halfway towards the Cosmic Realm!
The Primordial before him nodded with an appreciative expression as she gazed around while continuing.
"Having collected unique treasures and even powerful beings at the level of Daolords around you…you would have made a perfect candidate for a Champion if your Reality wasn't already blessed with an exceptional one."
…!
She once more spoke confidently of wrong information as she didn't see the figures of Halcyon or Springforge that were currently the strongest under Noah with their Edicts- these beings having disappeared along with the Library from measures that Noah had already put in place as even they didn't know what had occurred!
Noah said nothing as he continued to gaze at the Primordial before him that was trying to glean information about him while he…he was actually bold enough to do even more than that as while hidden in the Ruination Realm, his Universal Body that had already fused with the Blue Slime shone with glorious light as after seeing the full reserves of destiny and fortune, he uttered out impassively.
"Author's Jurisdiction."
WAA!
A grand Jurisdiction of a completed Edict erupted out silently from Noah's combined Universal Body and slime form as with utter contempt, he peered into the secrets of a Primordial while one of his bodies stared right at her face!
His destiny and fortune churned as unlike Hyperion, more than half of these unique resources disappeared instantly at the mere cast of the ability.
"Let the target be…the Primordial standing before my eyes!"
RUMBLE!
The heavy and nearly unlovable Essence of Reality lying within the depth of the Origin of the Blue Slime churned as they rose up, bundles of information being collected as Noah was shown the "aspects" or the status sheet of the existence before his eyes.
He peered into the secrets of the Existence that told him he would have made a great Champion if a perfect one wasn't already present in his Reality!
