Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

"You think I need protection and resources from others to grow?"

BOOM!

The words were like a thunderclap in the ears of the Holy Emperor, his gaze on this being turning cold as he shook his head with a hint of disappointment, realizing that genius truly came at a price- and this being was too prideful!

Such pride was the downfall of many geniuses, and he thought this being that his daughter brought would be above that.

As the gaze of the Holy Emperor turned cold, Noah's eyes were glancing at the Miscellaneous Afixxes of the Ruination Core he had equipped.

[Ruination Core Affixes](Miscellaneous) :: 10% chance to Smite enemies for 10,000% Ruination Damage when you hit them, Slain enemies explode into crystallized Blood Orbs that enhance physical constitution, +10,000 to All Damage, +10,000 to Defense, +10,000 to Attack and Cast Speed, Damage Dealt to enemies increases by 10% for every enemy near 50 meters of you, Slain enemies have a 10% chance to drop Dao Crystals based on the Dao they cultivate, Every attack deals an extra 100% Ruination Damage, 25%chance on killing an enemy to cause an explosion of Cores, Every successful attack increases Cast and Attack speed by 1% for 5 minutes-capable of stacking up to 10,000 times, The act of not taking damage for 10 seconds grants a Ruination Shield capable of withstanding a single strike from a Sage…

The Miscellaneous Affixes were many, and would fill up multiple pages if they were all to be listed. But Noah stopped after the Affix he was currently interested in the most, the one that stupidly granted him a Ruination Shield that could withstand the basic attack of a Sage as long as he did not take any damage for 10 seconds!

The only question that remained in Noah's mind was how many strikes from an Entity were equivalent to a single strike of a Sage?

This would be something he would learn in the future as at this time, he switched out the +10,000% increased comprehension and assimilation in the Dao of Summoning and added the affix that granted him a Ruination Shield as long as he didn't take damage for 10 seconds.

RUMBLE!

Essence silently thrummed within his origin as his eyes glanced at the cold faced Holy Emperor.

"Just a few months back, I embarked on the path of strength by awakening as the weakest hunter of my planet. Only weeks passed before I became the strongest on that planet, and a few more weeks passed before I began conquering nearby planets!"

Noah's gaze was calm as he seemed to be reminiscing, his words continuing grandly.

"A few more weeks passed...and I became the strongest in my Galaxy. Yet just this wasn't enough as in the past few weeks, I've embarked on a path outside of my Galaxy as I search for greater strength! During this entire time...I didn't require the protection or resources of anyone- I just took what I came across as I have now embarked on a Dao, and I have summoned three PRISMATIC Summons from my own efforts."

SHAA!

As soon as his words finished, 10 seconds had passed as around his body, a circular transparent shield that held a tinge of red began to form, Noah using his Unique Origin ability to make the forming Ruination Shield invisible to others as his eyes locked with the Holy Emperor.

"With my skills, I expect to rise to the rank of an Entity in just a matter of weeks as I will move unhindered in the Dark Universe. Why should I seek allegiance to your Expansive Dragon Cluster? Why should I not hold my head high with pride? Why can I not be arrogant!"

RUMBLE!

His words caused an air of majesty to leak out of him, the Holy Emperor squinting his eyes as he saw the same aura of a Ruler appear on this being in front of him! An aura of someone that held a great deal of responsibility on his shoulders, someone meant for a great future out of their wildest dreams.

Yet...the Holy Emperor still saw him as only a young child. This was because this genius was only of the QUASAR Realm, and yet he was throwing airs in front of an Entity multiple stages above him!

He had to enter and then pass the Low Tier, Middle Tier, and then ascend into the Peak Tier of the GALAXY Realm before he could even claim to stand at the same stage as the Holy Emperor, and yet his gaze at this moment was like he was talking to someone else at the same stage as him.

"You do not believe me."

Noah's words rang out as he glanced at the Holy Emperor at the corner of his eyes, this being currently holding an utterly disappointed expression as he was debating on what to do about him. Noah gave a light nod as he closed his eyes, speaking out with a languid expression.

"Very well. Since you do not think I can protect myself, why don't you try to harm me?"

"..."

The Holy Emperor glanced towards Noah with blank eyes as he thought his ears had gotten too old, his dark hair beginning to dance wildly as his sharp face became even more oppressive! He looked towards this genius as he decided to teach him a small lesson on arrogance, that no matter how amazing he was, he truly had not had the time to rise to a level of strength where he could talk in the same manner he was at this moment!

"Very well!"

RUMBLE!

Dao essence swirled around the Holy Emperor as he pushed out a palm.

It was a single palm that contained power at the Low Tier GALAXY Realm, the Holy Emperor wanting to only teach this genius a lesson to reform his arrogant view!

If one looked at this scene, they would be shocked to find a powerful Entity throwing out a palm filled with the essence of a Dao, the target of this palm standing calmly with his head raised as he didn't even bother dodging or utilizing any skill!
