Chapter 1101 - Apocryphal Antiquity! III
With the Omicron Universe, the Emperor Penguin and Barbatos were leading the charge while following behind the lead of the clone of the Blue Slime, this Universe actually having its existences all pledge fealty under the Tyrannical Emperor a moment after Noah entered and destroyed the Universal Construct.
He left just as quickly as his main body in the Dark Universe simply shone with brilliance and tabulated the incoming Marks of Antiquity.
With the addition of the Omicron and Euthenia Universe as well as his forces still targeting the levels of Paragons and below in the Abyssal and Liberated Universe...Noah currently stood at 43 Billion Dao Galaxies as he was very close to becoming a Hegemony himself!
The only thing that stood in his way was time, as well as the large amounts of Hegemonies that were currently waiting for him.
WAA!
At this time, his figure flashed into the Liberated Universe as he used the Expansive senses of the Slime to very quickly locate the Universal Construct as well as...its protectors!
It was frighteningly quiet at this moment as the figures of Noah and the Blue Slime turned into streaks of light, appearing near the Construct soon after as Noah locked eyes with the numerous beings protecting it.
Chronos was at the very forefront as his eyes were filled with utter seriousness and somberness as he gazed upon Noah.
What caused Noah"s eyes to constrict when he faced these Hegemonies though...was the fact that around all of them, a glimmering Universe was manifested outside brilliantly!
Each of them were actually manifesting their Origins outside as they released horrendous waves of power, the many Daos and laws they controlled s.h.i.+ning brilliantly across their Galaxies and Dao Galaxies.
Noah could actually count 14 Manifested Universes before him as it represented 14 Hegemonies! At the very forefront, Chronos majestically walked out as he looked at Noah with an impa.s.sive face!
"You know...I really hate beings like you the most."
RUMBLE!
"Beings that obtain everything without putting in any work, beings that are handed their power by another influence as they use it as if it was their own!"
…!
Chronos"s vibrant voice reverberated out as Noah listened silently, this being actually believing that Noah was something sent by the Primordial Cosmos themselves to stand in his way.
This was the only way to explain the unexplained power this being used! The only way to understand why a Paragon could do the things that he did!
"..."
Noah tilted his head as he smiled devilishly at this being"s words, his Cthulhu form merely vibrating with power as when faced with 14 terrifying Hegemonies, he wasn"t too bothered as he began to prepare!
Aside from this Universe, a similar scene was about to play out in the Abyssal Universe as outside its boundaries, a stern Oathkeeper had appeared as within his hands...a Sword of Primordial Essence vibrated intensely.
"Lend me your strength…"
He spoke powerfully to the Hegemonies behind him as they bellowed out, their bodies lighting up as essence freely left them and flowed into the Oathkeeper in an inefficient manner, but it flowed in nonetheless as the Sword of Primordial Essence shone even brighter, beginning to pierce and sink deeply into the Universal Barrier!
Behind the barrier, the swirling black hole that was the face of the Goliath swirled powerfully as multiple Hegemonies stood beside him, this entire party looking up as they were ready for battle!
2 Universes, 2 battles.
2 battles that would decide the unknown fate of many things!
Whether the Antiquity descended or not would depend on these two battles...and the Antiquity himself as this powerful Ent.i.ty was truly relentless.
A moment after the nigh simultaneous destruction of 2 Universal Constructs by Noah and now with only 2 remaining, this Antiquity silently and with eyes flas.h.i.+ng coldly actually burned another set of Universes as he used their essence once more!
In the unique area of s.p.a.ce across time and dimensions, he uttered coldly while gritting his teeth.
"20 minutes!"
RUMBLE
An extremely heavy price continued to be paid by the Antiquity as no matter what, he promised himself he had to descend!
His shocking actions were met with happiness in the Liberated and Abyssal Universe by Chronos and his party, while Noah"s eyes only flashed with bright light as he waved his hands and brought forth other clones of the Blue Slime.
THRUM!
Two more planetary sized Blue Slimes appeared as their mission were finished in the Euthenia and Omicron Universes, their bodies only glimmering with power and strength as they also stared down at the group of 14 Hegemonies.
The glimmer of Manifested Universes foretold of a shocking battle to occur as before Noah even made a move, Chronos had already waved his hands as an enormous purple clock appeared in the skies releasing an immense amount of the essence of Chronos!
At this point in time though, a voice stretched out from a being that had been very silent recently.
"From the memories of all the Hegemonies...you were the one to lead and propose for the genocide of the Universal Emperor Slimes."
RUMBLE!
The voice of the Blue Slime reverberated out strongly as the eyes of this being locked onto Chronos"s figure and spoke out!
He had devoured many Hegemonies so far as he didn"t just obtain their power...he also obtained their memories! From them, he knew of the Deep history of the Universal Emperor Slimes as well a the events leading to it.
Inexplicably sometime in the past, conflicts had begun to rise ever so slowly around the powerful Paragons and Hegemonies stemming from the race of Universal Emperor Slimes, almost as if a being was moving behind the scenes and orchestrating everything.
They progress so far as to cause a war with this unique race, where Universal Emperor Slimes were branded taboo as they used their power of Devouring to upset the very balance of the Cosmos!
When a Universal Emperor Slime held an entire Universe hostage for hundreds of years, this was the last straw as Chronos was the one to lead the campaign after that to eradicate them all.
This being now looked at the Blue Slime coldly as while the regal purple clock rotated above him, he replied slowly.
"In another lifetime, the Universal Emperor Slimes stood in my way and posed issues to my plans, so I eradicated them this time around."
RUMBLE!
"But it seems I wasn"t thorough enough, where even a little child like you was left behind...and here you are causing me problems yet again."
….!
A cold and remorseless voice!
The Blue Slime heard this clearly as its body vibrated with emotions, the knowledge that it would forever be the last of its kind because of such a reason from this existence being overwhelming!
Even though the Blue Slime was immensely powerful, it still held the mentality of a young boy as such emotions were felt strongly.
"It"s okay."
Above the Blue Slime, Noah patted his body sadly as he spoke, the Blue Slime calming down as in the Dark Universe, Noah"s main body was actually holding on to a small miniaturized form of the Blue Slime in his hands.
"It"s okay. Turn the strength of those emotions and rage towards the one that caused this. Let them feel what you feel!"
WAA!
The eyes of the Blue Slime s.h.i.+mmered a beautiful cerulean blue as it nodded, the blue crown above it spinning madly as in the Liberated Universe, essence erupted out in waves!
The last battle to decide the descent of an Antiquity began at this moment!
