Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

When Noah had met the Sword Kings of the Consummate Sword Expanse before, they had repeated to him multiple times that the 'Will of the Sword Emperor' would always be followed.

He thought this was mere fanaticism to the Sage of their Ancient Power, but he now realized it was something much grander as he felt the power of the Sage for himself!

He was releasing such dominating strength that Noah nearly activated Plot Armor to achieve a state of invincibility, but he held it off.

This wasn't a life and death situation, and as much as the Sword Emperor was thrashing him around, he didn't actually want to kill him.

This could be seen by how he was freely talking while throwing out his palms, and also why he wasn't throwing these powerful attacks to Noah's summons as the Sage targeted him alone!

Noah listened to the words of the Sage as he felt the tinge of damage to his soul and Origin from his last attack, his eyes landing on the figure majestically floating in the skies of this verdant realm as the details of the Sage appeared in front of him.

[Sword Emperor] :: A Sage that has lived for tens of thousands of years and experienced the vicissitudes of life. He has completely assimilated the Grand Dao of the Sword, and the Lesser Daos of Voidspace and Alacrity. The complete assimilation of more than 2 Daos has allowed this being to gain access to Primordial Essence…

Noah's eyes shone as he read the information of this wondrous being, his eyes honing in on the words this Sage had mentioned before that apparently granted him such tremendous power- Primordial Essence!

[Primordial Essence] :: The abstruse essence that gave birth to the Primordial Cosmos. One can gain access to it in a myriad of ways, but beings that have assimilated 2 or more Daos can access slivers of it to descend onto them to allow for the refining and purification of their body and soul. Those in the stage of a Sage will at most be able to purify 10% of their body and soul, those at the stage of a Great Sage being able to purify at least 25%...the assimilation of more Daos will open up a wider path for the transmission of Primordial Essence and allow a being to increase the percentage of their body they can refine and purify.…

Terrifying information entered Noah's mind.

Information on why beings termed Sages were so powerful!

They gained access to Primordial Essence that allowed them to purify their bodies, that being the reason why the Sword Emperor seemingly had such overwhelming strength when he faced Noah.

One would be keen to remember that as a Sage, he could only refine and purify 10% of his body with the Primordial Essence over his long lifespan, only able to increase this percentage if he became a Great Sage!

Yet even this level...Noah as an Entity could barely keep up with it…

"Good!"

Noah bellowed out with shining eyes as he looked at the Sage floating above. He was truly thankful to this being as he had opened his eyes to the path forward, a glorious path of power that he wished to grasp with his own hands.

THRUUUM!

Essence vibrated out as Noah thought about a great deal of things in a few seconds. He came to a decision as all of his animus pets aside from the Blue Slime all turned into streaks of light that returned to his origin!

The slime rested on his head with keen eyes that looked at the Sage with great fervor.

The Sword Emperor stared at the two beings below him with a starry gaze as his voice rang out once more.

"You've seen the strength of a Sage. What will you do to stand against it?"

The Sage threw out a domineering question as his mystical eyes locked with the Tyrannical Entity. He was hoping for this being to surprise him again as he was looking for something- something that would make him comfortably leave the task of preventing the Apocalypse of their Universe.

He wondered what this something would be!

Noah glanced at this powerful being with shining eyes as he voiced out simply.

"Give me just a minute."

RUMBLE!

The eyes of the Sage constricted as he heard this, a smile appearing on his face as he wondered, what could one do within a minute?!

A minute walk neither long nor short, as one could use it in a myriad of ways.

Noah's now unmerged clones that were separated from the Animus Summons appeared in a circle within a Time Space of the Infinite Galaxy.

Noah had a minute on the outside world, but he planned to stretch this minute to 100 minutes in the Time Space as he did something he had not expected to accomplish so early.

In the circle the clones were surrounding, numerous glistening loot that represented Law Assimilation Crystals lay gorgeously, the count being so high after Noah took out more than 130+ Entities from the Immemorial Sword Dungeon!

These Crystals would be more than enough to completely have his Assimilation of All Laws percentage to 100%!

The gift of the Sword Emperor had truly been too grand, accelerating his timeline greatly as each of the clones grabbed the assimilation crystals...and began absorbing them rapidly.

Waves of essence flowed out gorgeously as the clones worked in conjunction, the speed of the percentage shooting up greatly as it crossed the 50% threshold in seconds!

THRUUUM!

In the outside space, not even a second had passed after Noah voiced out that he would only need a minute, the Sage seeing his body exploding out with all Universal Law essences as a storm of it began to swirl around him.

'Universal Laws? What can this do…?'

The Sage only had this thought as he quickly focused, noticing the storm of universal law essences around Noah only getting wilder and wilder!

Within the Infinite Galaxy, the Clones had already gone through half of the Assimilation Crystals in the loot pile as a second outside was 100 seconds in here, the clones working fast as the percentage next to All Universal Laws Assimilation crossed 80%.

Fast!

RUMBLE!

Relentlessly and ridiculously, Noah went towards the goal of accomplishing 100% Assimilation in all Universal Laws by using the method given from the Book of Ruination, this method promising the birth of a Cosmic Dao!

The Cosmic Dao of Ruination!
