Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse c1-705

by Adventure, Action, Fantasy, Game

The Guardian of Blood was kneeling right outside the shrine as he looked down with utter respect towards the n.a.k.e.d being in front of it, wild emotions barely hidden on its powerful face.

  THUMP!

  Noah closed his eyes briefly as he sensed the tremendous power which seemed to tell him it was not even at its full completion as he noticed a purple aura fairly visible on his body that was letting out a glorious crimson red from the overpowering Bloodline, prompting him to realize that his attributes had crossed from the Saint Rank and into the Void Rank the moment he obtained the transformation and obtained this Bloodline.

  This Bloodline...he closed his eyes as he looked at a brief section of his stat panel and observed some new changes.

  [Noah Osmont][Title(s): Infernal Lord(4%)]

  [Bloodline(s): Vampyre Progenitor]

  [Vitality: VOID]

  [Focus: - ]

  [Strength: VOID]

  He only observed the changed attributes and addition of a section that listed the Bloodline of the Vampyre Progenitor as he looked on impassively, much of his thoughts still recalling the immense pain he just went through as numerous memories that seemed to stem from this bloodline itself began to permeate through his mind.

  The memories...were in the form of numerous abilities and skills that only the Vampyre Progenitor had access to!

  They abundantly flowed into Noah's mind as they were quickly isolated and shown on the stat panel, Noah continuing to stare blankly as his n.a.k.e.d figure magnificently stood on the shrine of the Ancient Blood World, still absorbing the tremendously unbelievable rewards that he had just received!

  Chapter 313 - All Mine!

  The first thing that Noah focused on was the memories of the Vampyre Progenitor Bloodline, his mental state still jumbled as many memories flowed into his brain, his stat panel clarifying everything he was seeing in a much simpler fashion.

  His gaze focused on the description of the only thing present under Bloodline(s) as he clearly red a set of shocking words.

  [Vampyre Progenitor](Awakening) :: The Bloodline of the Vampyre Progenitor has fused with your origin, slowly continuing to awaken to its full potential as time progresses. Bloodline boosts include: Ancient Being, Vampyre Ruler, Supernatural Beauty, Decelerated Aging,Blood Controller, Bloodline Affinity, Bloodline Bestowal, World Portal, All Element Resistance, Natural Blood Armor, Enhanced Charisma, Unnatural Healing, Unnatural Speed, Unnatural Strength, and Blood Gourmet

  "..."

  There were truly too many boosts associated with the Vampyre Progenitor as Noah only looked through the descriptions of a few while continuing to stabilize the memories flowing in.

  [Ancient Being] :: From unknown origins, the Vampyre Progenitor is known as an Ancient, this in itself granting them a unique status. An Ancient is able to withstand the dredges of time far longer than most, being able to live for a few thousand years naturally.

  [Vampyre Ruler] :: Holding the blood of the Progenitor, you can command the forces of Vampyres as if they are your own limbs.

  [Blood Controller] :: The control of blood will never be as refined as in the hands of the Progenitor. You are able to control blood in a variety of ways, and will only know to what limits as time passes.

  [Blood Gourmet] :: You become able to sense different qualities of blood and the wondrous unique taste they will bring to your palate, the only choice thereafter is whether you will devour. All abilities will be enhanced by half momentarily as you devour blood.

  Noah picked out three that he was curious about their full effects, his mind shook at the description of [Ancient Being] as more and more memories rolled into his brain. His now starry eyes landed on the bowing Guardian of Blood as he chose to slowly assimilate the memories rushing in while stepping out of the Ancient Shrine.

  His thoughts moved as he activated [Blood Controller], the nearby blood and mass of flesh that was sprawled on the floor shooting up and wrapping around him as it formed into a shining red cloak that covered his n.a.k.e.d body. He spoke to the bowing Guardian as his gaze looked across the wide Coliseum they stood in.

  "What exactly is this land we are in?"

  "Master, this Inheritance Grounds is located deep beneath the Ancient Blood World, a world that the first Progenitor resided in when he was rising in power. It was at one point reaching the level of a Realm, but over the years it has fallen to the level of a Prime World."

  Noah nodded his head as his figure elevated from the ground, going out of the shrine and shooting into the skies as the Guardian of Blood followed happily beside him. He shot high into the air until he broke through a certain layer, leaving the Inheritance Ground behind as he observed a whole new scene surrounding him.

  All around, an air of desolation and ancientness flowed as he observed expansive landscapes filled with a reddish hue. Everywhere he looked, he could see numerous shining crystallites shining a brilliant red covering nearly everything, leaving only a few empty areas of barren landscapes where one could see vigorously powerful Vampyric Beasts scurrying around.

  "Over the millennia, the natural abundant essence of the world has given birth to varying levels of Vampyric Beasts that have populated all lands of this word, the only other thing coming out of it being these Blood Crystals that are filled with dense essence that makes it very easy for Vampyres to break through ranks.

  Noah's eyes shined as he looked at the expansive crystallite stones that covered almost every surface of the wide world he was looking at, his gaze also staying on the numerous Vampyric Beasts scurrying around as he ascended even higher.

  His body that already felt weightless when moving because of [Child of Space] had been boosted to extreme levels with the Vampyre Progenitor Bloodline. He felt such abundant strength and speed that his body turned into a streak of red light as it soon crossed the stratosphere and shot even higher, breaking past a glimmering red barrier as he came to the vastness of space that was between the Light Expanse where he had been at all this time, and the Dark Expanse where he had a tremendous amount of questions about.

  He looked around the starry space as he observed the remains of numerous shattered stars all around, the entire area seeming like a dead zone of planets as everywhere his gaze landed was just more asteroids and large landmasses stationed in space.

  He looked below the Ancient Blood World he had just left as he was actually faced with a sight that only seemed to show more wreckage of dead planets, and not the world he just came from!

  He smiled as his eyes shone a dense red color, the Ancient Blood World becoming visible to him again as he marveled at this feature it had of hiding itself from prying eyes.

  "The barrier that master used the last of his strength to erect still stands today, maintained by the world itself as it had been safely hidden from many powers that wish to obtain it."

  Noah nodded his head as he was finishing the process of receiving the abundant memories, many things becoming extremely clear about the Vampyres as he looked at the Guardian of Blood that was respectfully standing behind him.

  This was a being at the Soul Forging Realm, holding tremendous power that Noah had only been able to bring down by combining the use of many skills. A set of memories about this being were flowing through his mind as he spoke.

  "You are...connected to this world."

  "Yes, Master. Through the Progenitor's wondrous genius and the willingness of the Ancient Blood World, I, an Automaton Creation was made to oversee the undertaking of the Inheritance Grounds, as well as the easier use of the World's power that is heavily restricted by the Universal Laws."

  …!

  Shocking words were confirmed by the Guardian of Blood as Noah's gaze peered through him deeply, his thoughts actually going to the white-haired girl called Sophia that he knew to be connected to some sort of unique was to his Homeworld's core.

  This was the same girl that the voice of the Planetary System came out of, the one that had opened the portal to the Beast World from a small isolated village,
and the one still working behind the scenes now in his Homeworld as she managed things very few could imagine.

  This Guardian of Blood in front of him was somewhat similar to Sophia, but much more unique as he was a powerhouse at the Soul Forging Realm. But to Noah, this was not all it signified. This creature was an Automaton Creation that was connected to the Ancient Blood World. This same creature was subservient to Noah, which meant that this entire hidden world that had downgraded to a Prime World from an even higher stage...would now be subservient to him!

  A red light erupted from Noah's eyes as he realized that the rewards for this venture were far more than what he imagined, this Bloodline he had looked at only being a portion of it. Among the other rewards were a number of Skills that the System was slowly connecting and classifying into those fitting into a skill tree or those that were in their own category, as well as the reward of a Prime World just waiting for him to form yet another connection to.

  There were too many things to look forward to as he shot back down towards the Ancient Blood World, keen on starting multiple things right away!

  Chapter 314 - Schemes, Aspirations

  Across the vast space, on the 7th Celestial Star, an emergency meeting was underway as powerful figures gathered around a golden hall overflowing with splendor. The figures were shockingly known as Celestial Grandmasters, beings of a ridiculous level of power that even a single one would hold a tremendous sway wherever they appeared.

  They were seated on extravagant seats as they surrounded a slowly revolving illusory circle that seemed to portray a great deal of information only to them, their eyes occasionally shining with streaks of gold as they nodded their heads every now and then. After a while, one of the Celestial Grandmasters spoke, addressing everyone in the golden hall.

  "As you all can see, even while moving to the greatest possible extent, the progression of events is still set, with the rise of this new Infernal Lord that will disrupt the balance we have worked hard to create on the horizon."

  The words were calm and yet somber, many of the Celestial Grandmaster's turning to observe him as one of them nodded and spoke.

  "Even though you took care of the Aberration in the First Hell, the cowards moving behind the scene could have brought about a new Aberration in any of the other Hells, allowing for things to move in this direction. But...it matters not."

  Words filled with confidence erupted in the hall as the many figures dressed in a variety of different colored robes nodded. This was because they knew their own power, and how they were able to obtain the position they held now. They had tremendous confidence that even with enemies moving behind the scene...they would not be able to do anything major to them, and they will all be crushed utterly and completely, just like what they had done in the past.

  "But...we have become too entrenched in fate over this last millennium, making it extremely difficult for us to actively steer it lately."

  A Grandmaster with an exemplary goatee spoke as he turned to look at the Grandmaster that Noah had come across not too long ago.

  "What do you propose, Vredral?"

  The gazes of the powerful figures in the golden hall turned towards the Grandmaster known as Vredral as he opened his mouth while in deep thought.

  "Just as a new Infernal Lord shall rise, we must foster the rise of our own champion that is not yet too affected by fate to make sure our edge over this coming war remains."

  OOONG!

  The Illusory Golden Circle rotating slowly in the golden hall they were in trembled at these words, smiling looks appearing on the faces of the Grandmasters as the one with the exemplary goatee spoke once more.

  "It seems like Fate is not too keen on that idea. So...we shall go through with it! How is the progress with our little War Princess going?"

  A Disciple from the 7th Celestial Star was mentioned as Vredral replied.

  "She is increasingly building up more Fate Lines, being able to withstand against an Aberration that was ready to break through into the peak of rank 4(Soul Forging Realm/Soul Rank) while she still holds Middle Rank 4(Void Realm) strength."

  The Grandmasters were reminded of the shocking events that had taken place in the Realm of the First Hell recently, where a valiant Athena had stood against a being that was building up power that went past the Void Realm, but she withstood it and with the help of Incarnations and one well timed strike by a being that would soon join them as a disciple, and the Aberration was taken down!

  "Good, but it is not fast enough. We must accelerate her progression and allow her to take in even more Fate Lines rapidly, she will be one of our weapons for the coming war."

  "Yes. There are a few other Disciples across the other Celestial Stars who come close to her talent, but she is leading the pack for now."

  Nods of agreement spread out as Vredral spoke once more.

  "We can prepare to open up the Celestial Realm once more for this generation of disciples. Athena should be able to advance speedily with the treasures contained within."

  "Right. It will take some time to get everything ready, but it shouldn't be a problem. Vredral, we will leave her guidance to you for now. Keep us updated on her progress."

  The Celestial Grandmaster, Vredral, nodded once more as the golden hall soon erupted into other discussions about a multitude of issues at hand!

  Some dealt with intricate problems in the Light Expanse where they held control of, other issues were dealing with the Dark Expanse that they continued to struggle with to this day. It soon became a cacophony of strong auras as the discussions continued, the tide of fate still flowing as the rotating golden circle in the room continued to move steadily.

  In the First Realm of Hell, the overpopulating Infernals continued to be reduced at an unbelievable rate as numerous powerful figures paved their way across the First Hell. At the forefront was a terrible Lich Emperor who released deathly energies and commanded an Undead Legion with numerous High Tiered Undead that razed any enemies they found to exhaustion.

  The numerous powerful undead were protecting an assortment of humans, demons, and beasts as they went on to rapidly increase their power over the last few days.

  Noah had left the Spiritual Land floating in the skies of this Infernal Realm, Kazuhiko and company being able to return into this resplendent floating landmass that was overflowing with essence to recuperate from the constant rushing droves of Infernals, while also enjoying colorful Medicinal Herbs and Fruits sprawled out all over the Spiritual Land.

  At the central area of this huge paradisiacal landmass, enormous intricately built houses and skyscr.a.p.ers were abundant, taking the styles of Noah's Homeworld, Beast World, and even the futuristic wonders of the Lost World that brought back some melancholic memories from the Calamities of the Sea.

  But it was in this area where an abundant amount of Medicinal Fruits, Herbs, and Cores were contained as it acted as the base for these rapidly rising beings. Some spent too much time in the billowing hot springs and beds that seemed to be entirely made of soft feathers, but they all continued a cycle of training and resting as they continued non stop over the past few days.

  Floating above the Spiritual Land at this moment was a particularly arrogant Emperor Penguin that moved its flippers towards the sleek black feathers above its head, its gaze watching the numerous Undead that continued to move day and night in this Infernal Realm.

  The penguin was watching his own stat panel that showed how many Skill Points it had left after distributing many of them in a skill tree that heavily boosted his spatial abilities as he wondered just how many Skill Points his master was racking up with these Undead that were killing on his behalf.

  He was looking at the efficacy of his Master as he was freely moving around doing dangerous things in a location far away from here, while still continuing to grow his power at an insane pace even faster than all of them.

  He wanted to grow and increase his strength even faster! Even though he knew
he would never be able to match his Master, he was still the first beast born in the Spiritual Land, still the one leading at the forefront!

  RUMBLE!

  A milky white aura covered his body as a golden light went on to cover it, the [Pride Embodiment] that went on to allow him to show great strength against the Infernals and push his power even higher being activated yet again as the penguin that had just entered the Saint Rank shot out like a missile from the Spiritual Land and went to join the Legion of Undead to take down even more Infernals.

  Feelings of obtaining strength at a rapid speed were not only unique to this arrogant penguin as many of the Harbingers continued to struggle behind the scenes to at least keep up with the ever-expanding strength of a single person they looked up to!

  Chapter 315 - A Connection, <>

  In the Ancient Blood World, Noah was already deep beneath this hidden World's inner core layer as he came face to face with a Planetary Core much larger than any that he had come across before.

  This was the planetary core of a world that had downgraded from the stellar status of a Realm and had become a Prime World!

  It rotated strongly in the underground space, an air of ancientness permeating as a voice very similar to the Guardian of Blood rang out.

  [I had an agreement with the first Progenitor, and that agreement carries on through the years. What is it that you wish for?]

  Noah's gaze that was wandering all over the mystical aurora of lights surrounding this crimson core focused as he spoke out calmly, moving his hands towards the core as he did it.

  "I only wish for you to accept this connection."

  His right palm landed on the brilliant core as a unique light released from his body and bathed it serenely, the process of forming yet another line of connection, but this time with a Prime World occurring!

  [...]

  The Ancient Blood World quietly released its protective barriers, letting the energy freely permeate through its origin as it let this new Progenitor do what he wished!
